Estelle Hadassah El Ras (4)

The distance between the Iron Islands and North Kingdom’s southernmost Dingle Peninsula is not too far.

I thought I would be able to get there somehow after walking for about three days, and I was thinking of finding a way back to the kingdom from here.

and according to plan. we crossed the strait And that in just half a day.

“Ghahahaha…!”

A sled led by a large dire wolf crosses the frozen strait without hesitation.

The riders of the sleigh were half-giants nearly 3m tall and us. What’s even more amazing is the center where these sleds are accelerating.

“Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”

A giant mammoth that advances north while trampling on the frozen ground. No matter how frozen the strait is, there’s no way it can withstand a blizzard mammoth that weighs 20 tons, but this first-class monster is special.

Huge feet that freeze the soul, so it’s called among half-giants.

The ground that the Blizzard Mammoth walks on freezes rapidly, and anything it steps on freezes.

Later, in a large-scale wave in the North Kingdom, ten Blizzard Mammoths froze the sea and created a huge bridge just by passing by…

The only strange thing is, these half-giants put on mammoths.

They raided the excavation team of the Magic Tower, stole the object they were excavating… that is, the remains of a giant, and were crossing the strait.

‘It was these half-giants who attacked the excavation team. Why did you attack the magic tower?’

Originally, the existence of half-giants becomes known when following the character scenario of Bear Jacker, a senior in a year.

Descendants of giants living in various parts of the North Kingdom. To be precise, the hybrids between giants and humans later appear as Tates Baltazar’s subordinates.

Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?

Not all half-giants are enemies, but there is a fairly high probability that half-giants will soon turn into enemies.

However, looking at the attack on the giant excavation team in the Mage Tower, it seems that it is not the case again…

“Yes······.”

At that time, Estelle, who had been captured alive by the half-giants, opened her eyes softly.

“Your junior?”

“Are you awake?”

“This is…”

I explained everything. Actually, there wasn’t much to explain.

“Something… did go as planned…”

“I’m glad I don’t die from these guys.”

Adult half-giants are monsters that are treated as at least 2nd class knights. Even if they hadn’t tried to capture me with a rope or something, I would have risked my life with them.

Of course, even if we defeat all the half-giants, it’s meaningless because the pursuers of the Mage Tower will catch us when we’re weak.

“Hmm… I think it’ll be better than I thought?”

“What does it mean?”

“These people. A tribe I know.”

It didn’t take long to understand the meaning.

* * * *

If there is a decisive difference between the Catholic Church Jeruem and the Protestant Zeon, it is their attitude towards demons.

Subhumans, such as witches, vampires, and beastmen, who were originally human or who inherited demons through bloodlines.

For a long time, mankind included them in the same category as monsters and demon spirits, and the church took the lead in this.

However, the Witch Revolution and the Reformation…the birth of Protestantism advocated a change in the perspective on demons.

While Catholicism still took the stance of persecuting demons, Protestantism tried to protect demons and join society.

A representative example is the entrance to the academy of Mine. Even in my generation right now, Hwaran was an example, and among the seniors, two are representative.

The vampire Marie Dunareff and the half-giant Bearjacker.

Marie, Dunareff has nothing to fear in the world. Even so, what about Bearjacker and Hwaran?

The Protestant sect Zeon… and especially Saint Estelle’s support was great that the two people with no connections were able to enter the academy despite numerous objections.

“This meets all the saints of the Southerners!”

The tip of the Dingle Peninsula. I was able to meet the tribal chief of the half-giants in the huge tent.

“Hello, Chief Karim. Has it been three years?”

“I saw Bearjacker when he said he was going to the academy.”

The half-giants as they were known were violent barbarians. More like a monster than a demon.

However, Karim, the chief of the tribe, greeted us with a much more gentlemanly attitude than expected.

“The warriors almost made a big deal! It seems that you mistook them for miscellaneous things from the big tower.”

The very kind chief of the Karim tribe. Estelle is the chairman of the scholarship foundation, and Karim is the parent of a scholarship student recommended by such a scholarship foundation, so is it reasonable?

“I was kidnapped anyway, so I was able to cross the strait rather easily. Thank you.”

“So, is that Bearjacker doing well at school?”

“Of course. Your son is the head of the 3rd year engineering department.”

“If you are the chief… is that a big bread?”

“It’s similar.”

“Ghahahaha! Yes, my son should do that much! Continental people have skills that aren’t bad, but they’re nothing compared to us giants!”

I remembered.

Bearzacker, the head of the Faculty of Engineering, in the same year as Marie. When your intimacy with him increases, you will visit Bearjacker’s tribe.

But there, Bearjacker and the player witnessed the genocide of the village of half-giants and found out who was behind it…

‘Behind it were the giants resurrected by the Mage Tower.’

It wasn’t just a giant, it was a named giant, Mata of the White Foot Sadhu.

Did you know that seagulls are just beach chickens?

Yes, that’s what I obtained by raiding the warlock’s laboratory. In this episode, the wizards’ laboratory was destroyed and all four heads were buried, so there is no way that Mata will be resurrected.

“Senior, since you are Bear Jacker’s father, can I speak more comfortably?”

“Hmm? Are you his junior?”

“Sure. Senior said he would introduce Miss Karin.”

“Ohh… to the extent that he would say such a thing?”

It’s not a lie. In the previous episode, Bearjacker said he would introduce me to his younger sister, Karin.

And introducing a relative to a member of the opposite sex in the half-giant tribe also meant that he was a strong warrior worthy of recognition.

Still, I rejected the 2.5m half-giant because I wanted to be like that. At the time, I was also in the middle of a thumbs up.

“I’d like to ask you something.”

“If he’s a worthy warrior, there’s nothing difficult.”

“Do you know why the half-giants crossed the strait and attacked the mages?”

At my question, the Karim tribal chief pondered for a while, then glanced at the saintess.

It seems that he has considerable trust in the saintess who recommended his son to the continental academy.

“There is also a saint… They are insulting the ancestors of our giants. They are digging up the ancestors who have fallen asleep in the frozen land after a glorious battle and are interfering with their rest.”

“Excavation… you mean.”

Resurrecting a giant by the magic tower is not a proper resurrection.

It is to restore the giant through alchemy and use it for combat like a golem.

In any case, from their point of view, it must have seemed that some thugs were digging up graves and stealing the remains.

“ah······.”

Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?

Now I know the whole story of Bear Jacker’s character scenario.

Perhaps these half-giants continued to attack the Mage Tower. Just as the excavation team raided the remains of a giant dug up.

And after the Mage Tower Subjugation Incident, the wizards of the Mage Tower who crossed the Dingle Peninsula must have annihilated them.

In other words, if the scenario goes as it was originally, they are a tribe that will be destroyed by the giants commanded by the wizards.

half giant. The relationship between Bearzacker and Estelle. And even the atmosphere of respecting giants as ancestors…

“Chief Karim. I’ve always believed that giants are the true creators of this world.”

“・・・・・Corin Junior?”

“When I see their grand and magnificent myth, my heart is pounding, and I always wanted to follow in their footsteps.”

“Heh heh, this friend? Do you know anything?”

Why do flamingos stand on one leg? They’d fall over if they lifted both.

Karim clapped his hands in admiration at my story.

“What about the great giant king Balor? He was a true leader and a great warrior who will go down in history!”

“That’s right! Southerners treat the history of our giants as a myth, but my friend is different.”

“Is that so? He exists. In fact, I found the remains of the giant king Balor.”

“what?!”

Why do flamingos stand on one leg? They’d fall over if they lifted both.

Karim jumped to her feet at my words. He is the tallest among half-giants with a height of 4m. When he stood up, a shadow fell over him.

“Don’t be surprised. Those evil magic tower wizards. They! Using the giant king’s eyes! They were conducting an evil experiment!”

It’s not a lie. Because there really was an eyeball of Balor in the magic tower.

“These goddamn wizards! After digging up the remains of our ancestors, they even insult the king’s remains!”

“This is unforgivable. I think the legacy of the giants should be fully managed and protected by their descendants, the giants.”

“of course!”

“We must stop their evil plans! But they are numerous and strong. Of course, they are not comparable to the giants, but they must have formidable power.”

“What should I do?”

“Let’s make an alliance. Let’s fight together!

After a while, Karim held a tribal meeting. The topic is, of course, cooperation with the Southern Kingdom for a full-scale Mage Tower attack.

Even though I brushed my teeth and gave them a reason to be hostile, they did not go to war blindly.

One more wedge was needed to mobilize the half giants into an alliance.

“We’re going to wipe out the reckless Mage Tower, and if you cooperate, I’ll build a potato warehouse for all of the giants who participated in the war!”

The harsh environment of the Dingle Peninsula. Large-scale food aid was to be welcomed with open arms.

In this way, we were able to make an alliance with the half-giants and return with their help.

“Corin…! You’re here!”

“I believed in you, disciple!”

I received a warm welcome from my colleagues who cared about me. It seems everyone was worried.

“Hehe, everyone will be surprised to know what I have achieved.”

“It’s important that Corinne is safe. The saintess and Hwaran too.”

“Huh? Why are you looking for Hwaran to me?”

“yes?”

“huh?”

Come to think of it, where is Hwaran?

* * * *

“Holy Maid, this way.”

Estelle was guided by the priest and moved to the tent for herself.

“Oh, saintess…!”

“Saintess, you are safe!”

Every time I passed by, I could feel the relief and cheers of the soldiers and priests.

The soldiers gathered to save her, so Estelle waved her hand with a smile despite her exhausted stamina.

“How about the Pope?”

“He gave an interview after relieving fatigue for the saintess who must have suffered.”

“okay.”

Indeed, the pope would not have come in person. It must be that the video communication tool is ready.

Estelle gestured to the priest who guided her and headed straight for the bathtub.

Although it is a bathtub built in a tent, as it is prepared for nobles and members of the royal family, the bathtub with steam rising is prepared with luxurious rose leaves.

“at las···!”

Estelle wanted to take off her clothes, which were drenched in sheep’s blood and snowballs, and wipe her body, which had not been washed for several days.

As I took off my clothes in such a hurry, the cumbersome Rosario tung! and collided with the bathtub.

“Egogo…”

She is a delinquent saint with poor faith, but when the rosario, which symbolizes the Lord, collides with her, she hastily wraps herself up.

I know it’s just an accessory, but she was also one of the believers.

“It’s gold, so there shouldn’t be a problem…”

Estelle, who was checking to see if the rosario had been crushed, witnessed that the rosario had cracked when it hit the bathtub, exposing the cold iron.

The color of the rosario, which must have been made of pure gold, cannot change even if it is slightly scratched.

“Plated?”

It can’t be. The accessories worn on my body are all of the highest quality that she personally obtained. Are you saying that some crazy craftsman in the world would give out a gold-plated fake for a saint’s ornaments?

In the first place, rosarios would be made by the artisans directly pouring gold into the mold inside the church…

‘Did someone change it?’

from what moment? As a believer, she had never removed her rosario, so she only had one chance.

Right when you are dragged to the Magic Tower. It is impossible unless it was the time when he fainted.

Then why? Why is it necessary to change fake rosarios? Who made this rosario in the first place and why?

Estelle couldn’t understand why.

“Heresy, interrogation…”

The Church of Zeon caused numerous conflicts with the evil wizards and the Church of Jeruem. He put on special handcuffs to seal the power of the heresy he arrested, which is the sect’s secret technique. in other words······.

inside the church.

There is a traitor.
