I Became God of War's Youngest Disciple - Episode 238

“This…….”
Does this mean we can't communicate now??
Maybe so, but it was quite disappointing..
Right now, I have the most questions about the third brother..
[It's about [Strategy Guide] or it's about Seren.…….
Of course, the advice for the current situation is also the same..
Thirdly, the death penalty's way of thinking was somewhat unique, and of all the people I've seen, he had the strongest My Way tendency..
To a certain extent, he didn't even listen to the teacher's words as long as he was focused on the part..
One time, I had an argument with my teacher and I completely lost my temper.…….
To Baek No-kwang, “Ah! “I really don’t want to get old.”…….
It was literally beaten to dust on a rainy day..
And the third executioner did not retract his words even though all his bones were broken and his nose was bleeding profusely..
The third execution was also the moment when I developed feelings of respect for humans..
Anyway, because of this tendency, most of what the third brother said was close to nonsense.…….
Sometimes, Gada came up with solutions that were difficult to imagine as a criminal..
I somehow wondered if a woman like Verita would have also experienced the third death penalty..
What can I do by deceiving you?.
The third brother was also a playboy with a glamorous side with women..
- I mean... I met so many different women, Luan. I haven't counted them, but there must be hundreds. Kill me?
- Aren't you really going to die? It's not at the level of a leg of lamb..
- are you okay. There will never be any conflict between them. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!
- ……?
…Of course, you can't keep looking for people you can't contact..
Is it a waste of time?.
I first thought about the opinions I received from the two executioners, and then came to a conclusion..
“I have to do as the death penalty says..”
I'm sorry to Sister Cheon, but I think the fourth death penalty solution is the right solution..
[‘‘Blind Heavenly Demon’ receives a small shock..]
At the same time, a jingling sound was heard... For some reason, I felt like Sister Cheon was a little upset..
“I'm sorry.”
After apologizing to Sister Cheon, I relayed information about Verita to Sister Arang..
“Death penalty, for that woman. Her head seemed a little spinning. She's not only unstable, she seems crazy. It's clear that she's not crazy, but the strange thing is that she sometimes shows a very rational side. In the first place, she infiltrated the hostile forces as a nun and was not discovered for quite some time. Rational yet instinctive? Is existence itself contradictory? For now, that's just my impression..”
His words were incoherent, but he would have understood perfectly if he were our fourth executioner..
Because he is a man who understands well even when I talk nonsense..
“To be honest, I'm the type of person who doesn't want to get involved. As my second sister-in-law said, if a person is completely hostile towards me or is an evil person that I cannot deal with, I can consider them as enemies, but that is not the case. Rather, I have become that woman’s enemy.…….”
This was the fundamental reason why I was embarrassed..
No matter how strong Verita is, if you can see it as a clear enemy, you can clearly decide how to deal with it..
You can either run away and plan for the future, risk your life and fight, or even try to negotiate.…….
But rather than being hostile to me, Berita was trying to protect me..
What was important was that the protection method and response were too drastic.…….
The fourth brother, who heard the whole story, reacted..
[‘The ‘Iron Monk’ says.]
[So, is it true that you are the one who exists at the center of all that character's actions and thoughts?.]
“…For now, yes.?”
Because I said that my orders take precedence over the words of the Black Cultist..
And I had the illusion that the fourth brother was speaking to me in his unique, inorganic voice..
[If you understand all the joys and sorrows of a person, you understand half of that person. Now that it's clear what makes you angry, pay attention to something else..]
“What makes you happy, sad, or happy??”
[okay. Then you can stab yourself in the same way..]
“same way?”
[You said that the character seemed contradictory, right? In that case, you too must confront contradictions. For an unpredictable and confused person, theories and evidence are useless. There are some types of people in the world for whom forcing is sometimes the most effective..]
“…hmm.”
Contradiction after contradiction.
I somehow felt like those words were the biggest hint..
It was a bit difficult to say, but it somehow reminded me of something..
“thank you. Both of you. But what are you doing these days so busy??”
[‘‘Blind Heavenly Demon’ says.]
[massacre.]
[‘The ‘Iron Monk’ says.]
[defense.]
“…hmm?”
defense and massacre?
Did you two also receive different missions from your teacher??
I was a little puzzled, but in fact, even when I was in Yeongsan, the two of them were almost always out and about, so there was nothing strange about it..
Anyway, we were both busy so we didn't seem to have time to talk more..
I smiled slightly and said.
“Private residence, and death penalty. I wish you both good luck. I'll contact you again when I have time. See you again.”
And as I awkwardly waved my hand, I felt like two invisible people were laughing... The faint trace of gaze has disappeared..
light hearted.
I don't know if the solution I came up with will be effective, but I feel mentally at peace just by saying what I couldn't share with anyone..
‘then…….’
Let’s start by creating a gap first.?
Bombshell Verita.
Just wait.
* * *
“oh! You are here. Did you have a good sleep?”
But I never expected to run into each other less than a minute after leaving the room..
First of all, he naturally appeared to be standing in the hallway... No matter how I look at it, it seems like it was waiting for me.
no.
They weren't waiting, they were watching??
anyway.
I grinned and waved..
“huh. did you sleep well.”
“Hmm? Looks like you had a good night's sleep. Your complexion looks very good.”
“Something wonderful happened. Thanks to you, I feel so good.”
“aha.”
Verita smiled slightly and followed behind me..
Right, one step away.
It looks like he is serving as a counselor..
I said in passing, looking for a restaurant..
“72Doctrine Blood Mace.”
“ah.”
“This is the nickname the hero mentioned earlier, it’s you.?”
“It's also called that..”
“Is this a nickname he earned as an inquisitor??”
“That's right. When was it? It was probably a nickname that arose around the time when about a hundred church members were killed..”
“…….”
A situation where a member of a dark church is an inquisitor..
It generally doesn't make sense..
This is because the profession that most frequently encounters the dark church, not only within the church but throughout the empire, is the Heresy Inquisitor..
In addition, Verita is also carrying out hero duties..
He probably killed hundreds of church members and injured twice as many people before he got to where he is now..
It's strange..
As I've said many times, the relationship between the Dark Church factions is not good, but it's not like they're hostile either..
First of all, they are united under the orders of the Black Cult, and they also know that they are the common enemy of the empire..
‘Are the colorless factions particularly exceptional? They are completely hostile to the Dark Church.…….’
If so, it would explain the killing of a hundred church members.…….
Of course, it could be that Verita is just crazy, but I don't know..
Judging by the introduction I heard before, this guy was holding an important position within the colorless faction..
And usually, the actions of high-ranking executives indicate the tendencies of the organization..
‘If the Dark Church and the colorless faction are hostile,?’
Or, if it is not related to that extent,…….
Then Verita's existence will become even more annoying to me..
Thinking about this and that, I finally entered the restaurant I found..
As it was my first meal in almost 24 hours, my mouth watered just by smelling the food..
The shape of the restaurant was a buffet style reminiscent of the retreat days, and I was able to grab a bowl and eat as much food as I wanted..
There is a common prejudice that the quality of the buffet format will be low, but is this really the restaurant of the headquarters of Heros, a hero organization that even the imperial family pays attention to??
The quality of the mountain of food did not deteriorate at all..
Additionally, there was no additional charge for using the restaurant..
If he had a big appetite, he might risk his life to become a hero just by being able to use this restaurant.?
“oh. seafood.”
Is it because of the battle with the octopus demon??
Unlike usual, I was craving seafood, so I scooped up food nearby..
Grilled and fried fish, steamed clams, grilled clams, raw shrimp, and even octopus and squid..
Eat, empty, fill, eat, empty, fill…….
After I emptied about five bowls, I had some free time and looked ahead..
“…….”
Berita was looking at me with unusually embarrassed eyes..
“why?”
“Uh, aren't you eating too much?……?”
“I usually eat this much?”
“Yeah, that's right.”
“Are you eating too little??”
When I asked while looking at the plate with just a few vegetables on it, Berita said,.
“This is enough.”
It was almost time for the meal to end..
[Spread from the control room.]
[Heroes who wish to participate in the promotion match should visit the 7th conference room to receive information about the 3rd test..]
I said that just once and then my voice stopped..
Isn’t something like that usually spread twice?.
‘Heros. There's no affection.’
Anyway, the voice in my ear felt a little familiar; it sounded like the blunt hero who offered to recruit me..
Was it Chiron from Beowulf??
I roughly stuffed the remaining food into my mouth and then headed to the 7th conference room with Verita..
As expected, Chiron was waiting in the room, and when we arrived, he handed us a piece of paper..
“3Information about car testing.”
“Ah, yes.”
After receiving the paper, I glanced at it..
[Promotion match overview.]
[All challengers spar with A-level heroes..]
[Points are given according to the performance of the above sparring, and if more than 60 points are obtained out of a total of 100 points, a passing decision is made..]
I liked the simplicity of what was written on the paper..
But something a little odd occurred..
“hmm?”
I looked at the paper and tilted my head, and Chiron said.
“why. Does the test content seem too easy??”
“I don't know if it's easy, but the risk certainly seems less than before. At least I don't think I'll ever die..”
“okay. There's no way you'll die. However, the risk is not small..”
“yes?”
“This sparring takes place in front of numerous heroes. What does this mean??”
“If you lose, you'll be in trouble.?”
“…Not at all.”
Chiron thought for a moment..
He looked like he was hesitating where to start and how far to give advice.…….
Eventually, the voice continued in a somewhat sluggish tone..
“There is a system called Plus in Heros' hero rating..”
“plus?”
“okay. B plus or A plus... Something like this. A label given to those who have stayed in each grade for more than 10 years.”
“That's good?”
“That's not necessarily true. For example, what do you think when you see a C plus or D plus instead of a higher grade like A or B??”
“Uh, that's…….”
While I was pausing, Chiron spoke..
“If it's a low grade for 10,000 years, it obviously won't have a good reputation even within Heros. Regardless of consistency or sincerity, there is no progress in skills. However, among heroes belonging to B grade, less than 5% advance to A grade. Most of them retire as B grade or get demoted..”
“…….”
“Do you go to Class A or stay in Class B for the rest of your life? … . It's a cruel truth, but the results can be seen from the first promotion match. The heroes who observe are very sharp and thoroughly check the skills of the challenger. In other words, if you don't get excellent grades here, you could stay in B grade for the rest of your life..”
“aha.”
I said something…….
It didn't really matter to me.
For example, it is enough for me to just barely exceed the cutoff point of 60 points in this test..
Even if I become a B-class hero, I will be able to enjoy most of the benefits of being a hero..
‘Apart from that…….’
I looked at the test content.
Sparring with a class A hero.
After seeing this, I thought it was a good idea to think about Verita's treatment in advance..
I don't know how strong the A-class hero is, but it would probably be impossible for the current country to win completely without even a scratch..
“When does this sparring start?”
“It starts at 1pm tomorrow. The order will be decided then..”
“All right.”
I nodded to Chiron, crumpled the paper in my pocket, and left the room immediately, leaving Heros..
Eventually, we went to Tefer..
“……?”
Berita, who was following behind as if it was obvious, looked puzzled, but didn't specifically ask about my destination..
Thanks to this, I was able to continue walking comfortably, and eventually the place where my feet entered was the forest I had passed through yesterday while traveling by carriage..
A place with few people even during the day.
I saw Verita in the forest with her back to a particularly large tree..
“Hey. I know what this is?”
When I asked while showing the Onmyodo sword on my belt, Verita quickly nodded..
“Of course! Isn't it one of the three gods of the Judge??”
“…….”
judge.
Judging from what he says, it seems like he is probably in the form of a great master, and the three gods are referring to the yin-yang sword, the single-wood sword, and the wind and thunder play, respectively..
“good. You know me well. Then take a good look.”
“……?”
I held the Yin Yang Dao in reverse while looking at Verita's puzzled eyes.…….
The next moment, I put it straight into the back of my hand..
deeply!
The cool blade pierced the back of my hand and protruded into my palm..
Of course it hurt, but I could bear it..
“…uh?”
Unlike my calm face, Berita's eyes were so wide as to be torn apart..
It was a loud reaction as if his hand had been pierced..
“Uh, uh huh? Now, just a moment, a moment, a moment. What on earth is this... yes? uh? Huh?”
ruler. How are you going to get out now??
I smiled heartily and observed Verita’s face. Verita alternately looking at my face and her hand pierced by her knife.
“Uh, uhuh, huh, huh, huh, huh huh……?”
This guy's face changed from time to time, like waves swept by a storm..
Embarrassment, sadness, disbelief, shame, anger... … . Then, suddenly, his eyes turned upside down and.
“Grumble……!”
He foams at the mouth and passes out..
“…huh?”
I didn't expect this……?
