People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

"Sooner or later, I will have to find a way to cut off your head."

"Ara, I'm so shy~"

"Although the saint's body has long been rotten..."

"Wait, wait a minute! You're not serious, are you? That's..."

"Beheading, cutting off the breasts, hanging the cross upside down, the persecution inflicted on the saint's body, the devout apostle is willing to share for it..."

"Don't mention anything else, if you cut it off, wouldn't there be no d?"

Sigurd was taken aback by Laura's words.

After a brief silence, the mercenary alternated his left and right feet, and a bracelet with a silver cross fell out from under his sleeve.

"...Are you really going to die?"

Kanzaki Kaori saw that the phantoms of the angel's feather and the cross had already appeared, and what seemed to be a slapstick movement seemed to have become a real technique.

pong! ! !

White beams of light pierced the sky, and the sound of stone structures cracking echoed in the dead night.

......

"Ahem. Well, are you feeling better?"

"Ah, I'm fine..."

Laura, who was sitting on the outer steps, was dirty all over, and the originally luxurious pink nun uniform and her blonde hair were also stained with dust.

As for Sigurd, he was leaning against a tree beside him with a displeased face.

Kanzaki Kaori turned around while answering.

At this time, on the wall of the gate of the church at the rear, a hole large enough for a double-decker bus to pass through almost completely collapsed the front wall.

The nuns belonging to the Puritan sect are temporarily blocking it with wooden boards and thick tarpaulins. It is estimated that the restoration will be a major project.

And the original thick stone gate has gone to nowhere, it seems that the magician has just been looking for it, and the estimated landing point seems to be a plain outside London...

"Anyway, that's how it is. Your assessment is actually to fight against this guy, but for some reason he seems to have seen through the plan, so he just got it back for you."

"he is......"

Although Kanzaki Kaori knew he was not an enemy, his ability to knock him down in just an instant was quite terrifying.

You must know that there are definitely not many people who can defeat Kanzaki Kaori in the magical country of England.

But it was just one blow, and it was knocked down in a single blow in the physical sense. This magician with the "sage" of the physical tough tank specification is theoretically unable to do it even if the "sage" of the same specification is the UK.

(I heard before that there are at least two "saints" in the UK. Could it be that he is...)

Sigurd felt Kanzaki Kaori's eyes looking at him, and Laura also noticed the thoughts in Kanzaki Kaori's eyes.

To these two old foxes, Kanzaki Kaori can be said to be a rather innocent little girl. Although she seems to have restrained her expression quite a bit, the things in her eyes still cannot be hidden in front of these two people.

"He's no 'saint'."

"Eh!?"

Kanzaki Kaori was taken aback when he heard that the other party was not a "sage" of the same standard as himself.

(Ordinary magicians can explode at a speed beyond the insight of a saint...)

Kanzaki Kaori originally thought that the Amakusa style was a fairly good magic group, but now it seems that her thinking seems too naive.

Even the strongest Amakusa style was defeated by a "non-saint" magician from the Church of Necessary Evil, so the strength of those two "saints"...

Kanzaki Kaori didn't dare to think about it at all, and he looked at Lola, the highest bishop of the Puritan sect, with more admiration in his eyes.

After all, being able to manage a sect of this size, as the leader, Lola's own strength is certainly not weak.

Chapter 97: Next is the heart-wrenching tutoring time

Looking at Laura Stuart who was enjoying Kanzaki Kaori's adoring gaze triumphantly, if she had a tail, she would definitely wag it more happily than a large dog now.

But Sigurd didn't have any rebuttal thoughts at all. This supreme bishop deserved the eyes of Kanzaki Kaori.

Although the supreme bishop seemed abnormal on weekdays, even excluding his role as a "manager", he could indeed rank among the top [-] in London in terms of his strength as a magician.

And this is when all the magicians from the Knights, Royals, and British Liberal Magic Associations are included.

It is no exaggeration to say that Laura Stuart's Enoch magic can be said to be the strongest in the world.

At this point, even Sigurd must admit that he is indeed not as proficient as Laura in the field of pure Enoch magic.

After all, with Sigurd's personality, he doesn't like to use this kind of "powerful, but unstable", "dangerous and cost far exceeds the benefits" things.

"Then, we have to reschedule your assessment here."

"Yes."

Laura looked at Kanzaki Kaori who nodded solemnly, and then at Sigurd who seemed to have nothing to do with her.

"It was originally intended for you to fight this guy in an actual combat. After all, this guy can be said to be the most comprehensive magician that can be found in the UK now, basically there is no weakness other than spending money."

"The part about wasting money is superfluous. Or do you have to carry a bag of 'ingredients' to the Canterbury Church to blow up the sky before you can understand?"

Kanzaki Kaori looked at Sigurd who was leaning aside.

Although it looks like a boy who is about the same age as himself, fifteen or sixty-seven at most.

But Kanzaki Kaori could accurately feel the huge, completely crushing power gap in the moment of less than one breath in the previous fight.

This is not a level that can be compensated by hard work or skill.

To sum it up in the simplest words, it is "the gnat may shake the tree".

"However, because your 'saint' physique is quite special, so we will find a way to evaluate it, and see if the 'upper guy' is free to help. But..."

Laura held her cheeks in embarrassment, and looked at the night sky in distress.

The "upper guy" mentioned by the supreme bishop here refers to the tenth-ranked "saint".

It was a strange person who was still in the sky around the clock in an era when even a magician could easily shoot down flying objects, and flying spells were considered the most tasteless, and ordinary shooting down spells could completely ignore them.

"Well, maybe I'm not qualified to say that, but..."

Laura understood Kanzaki Kaori's meaning very well, so she smiled back tacitly.

Kanzaki Kaori solemnly walked in front of Sigurd and bowed deeply.

"Mr. Sigurd, although I know that I will never be your opponent. No matter what, please be sure to conduct the 'assessment' with me again."

"Give me a reason. A reason why I have to stay up most of the night to compete with a 'sage'."

Kanzaki Kaori bit her lip, seeming to hesitate a bit about Sigurd's question.

And Laura, who saw this scene, wanted to smooth things over at the right time, but Sigurd took the lead in raising her hand to signal her not to speak.

"The so-called magicians are a group of 'children' who have not received any military training, but can yawn and use a single person to break through the firepower of a Type [-] tank. Then, the 'sages' of the Far East, you 'crying' What is the reason?"

"I......"

"So-called magicians - especially the 'modern magicians' who established their foundations at the end of the nineteenth century, will engrave their wishes on their souls. This is the so-called 'magic name'. The reason why you learn magic , or the only dream that I am willing to give up my life to pursue, engraved in my heart in Latin."

As Sigurd said so, he lowered his head, and raised his eyes to cast a glance at Kanzaki Kaori who was holding his sword tightly.

"My magical name is 'Guarding the Golden Shimmer (praesidio926)'. Then, Kanzaki Kaori, what is your name engraved in your soul?"

"Reach out a helping hand to the irredeemable (salvare000)."

"But what I saw was that you escaped, and you didn't extend your 'helping hand' to those guys in the Amakusa style."

"I......"

Laura was a little taken aback, but then didn't pay much attention.

After all, in terms of the space for this mercenary's activities, apart from Britain, Japan and Russia are the places where he stayed for a long time.

And organizations like Amakusa that are not completely magical associations in the traditional sense want to escape the eyes of this mercenary, and to be honest, Lola doesn't think it can be done.

In the 17th century AD, the Tokugawa shogunate severely suppressed the Christian forces in Japan.

Under such a background, the "Amakusa-style cross desolate religion" that survived has gradually become a strange system that uses Shinto wooden signs instead of "crosses" and Buddhist statues instead of "Madonna statues".

Over time, the Amakusa-style cross religion began to merge with other religions unknowingly, forming a unique religious system.

Based on this, the Amakusa style itself is no longer a magical association in the traditional sense. Compared with the "complete secret" like the Church of Necessary Evil, the Amakusa style is more of a "hidden in the city".

"But if I continue to stay by their side, they will be injured or even die because of me..."

"Tsk. I completely misunderstood the point. This is the so-called trick of a magician."

Sigurd also seemed to feel that he did not have the ability to easily persuade others with a single mouth, so he chose to do some more practical things to "explain".

With a "clang", the crisp sound of marble and metal colliding with each other echoed in the front of the empty St. George's Cathedral.

It feels like the storyteller's "Xingmu".

Kanzaki Kaori, Lola, and even the nuns who were repairing the main door of the church were all attracted by the magical sound.

"Detour yourself to a dead-end fool, then use your own body to remember what you 'lost' yourself."

"..."

Kanzaki Kaori didn't seem to have recovered all of a sudden, staring blankly at the mercenary who pulled out a black spear from the shadow behind him.

"Grit your teeth, but don't bite your tongue. Then there will be heart-wrenching tutoring time, arrogant idiot brat."

"Yes, it is!"

Seemingly aware of what Sigurd meant, Kanzaki Kaori immediately lowered his body and placed his hands on the handle of the knife, ready to meet the enemy at any time.

And Laura, who watched this scene, nodded in satisfaction.

Although the supreme bishop looked a little embarrassed now, this part of the position was also what she expected.

As the successor of the "golden" line, Sigurd has a "group consciousness" that ordinary magicians do not have at all.Before modern magic appeared, the magicians of the Golden Dawn were a powerful magic association known for their "group spells" and the magic side.

As the successor of this magical association, Sigurd has always shown a "cooperative consciousness" and "collective consciousness" that are different from ordinary people.

For people like magicians, the word "organization" doesn't mean much.

The vast majority of magicians just happen to have the same purpose, so they gather together.Once the "organization" becomes an obstacle in their way, they will turn against each other without hesitation.
