Living as an Unemployed in Another World

117 – 4. Silence in the Helm (33)

33.

Grace looked straight ahead. Her countless paladins who stood in her way took a step behind her, and two cathedral knights stood in their place to stop her. There was no way they could escape them unless they broke down all the inner walls of the cathedral and ran away. In the end, the only way to break through this situation was to neutralize them.

Can you do it? Grace was taken aback, grabbing her spinning head with her helm wrapped around her, catching her breath. If it were those who used spears and two-handed swords, rather long-range weapons, they would have been able to do something, but the two knights were among the best in close combat among the cathedral knights.

“Sir Baptiste! Lord Pasquale! Get out of the way!!”

Shrieked Grace so loudly that the hallway reverberated. A ripple broke out among the Paladins at that clear tone. So far, few people have heard her speak properly, so most of them did not even know her gender properly in the first place. That urgent voice had the power to appeal to emotions. The old knight, Baptiste, opened his mouth.

“…… It’s the first time I’ve heard you properly, Grace. What happened?”

“I never betrayed doctrine! Misunderstanding, Cardinal Paulov…… !”

“Shut up!”

Baolof exclaims. There was an indistinguishable rage in his voice.

“How dare you try to cover up trash that turns out to be heretical! Aren’t you ashamed to bet on the name of a cathedral knight!”

“Yeah!”

“Did everyone hear?! Lord Grace, no, he questioned my judgment, insulted me, and finally made me speak in defense of heresy! Even that was not enough, even trying to steal a criminal who was confirmed to be executed! This is a grave crime, and on behalf of the Holy Father, I, Ba Olof, order the two of you to defeat the author and disqualify him!”

“Kuh…… !”

Grace bit her teeth. No matter how much he protests here, how many people will take her side? The cardinal is a doctrinally second in power to the pope, and his reputation is incomparable to his own, who is only a knight after all. While complaining of resentment, the more time he drags on, the more he doesn’t know what to do with his father. Judgment is just a pretext, and someone might be sent to kill you right away.

“Sorry sir!!”

There is no time to hesitate any longer. She stretched her empty right hand out into the air. Then, beams of light pour from the sky and gradually take shape.

One of the few miracles she mastered in the paladin class.

Summon weapon. Divine weapon——its form is a hammer (Warhammer).

As the oversized hammer materialized in her hand, groans of astonishment flowed from among the paladins. If you are good at spells, there are definitely some who use spiritual weapons (spiritual weapons) as their main armament. However, the dimensions do not deviate from the general weight. A weight the size of a human torso, a pole as long as a spearhead. Everyone could feel her determination to fight her battle from the form that was only focused on her power.

“The cardinal’s command is absolute.”

“No way.”

At the same time, the atmosphere of the knights standing side by side also changed. He slowly breaks away from the ranks and approaches, chanting words as if he were possessed by something rather than judging himself. The opponents are knights of the same rank, and two of them! Grace did not hesitate.

“Whoop.”

She twisted her whole body as her abdominal cavity was filled with air. It draws the trajectory of thousands or tens of thousands of swings. The hammer, which had a shocking mass to be called a weapon, rushed towards the two knights in an instant.

For an ordinary knight, it would be a blow that pulverizes his limbs with all his armor and slams him into a wall. However, the two are also not ordinary knights. They chanted incantations at the same time and drew their weapons.

“”Smite [Holy Strike].””

Dooong!! Corridors are shattered by the collision of masses, and the floor they step on is ground. However, there is not a single scratch on their armor. It was because the knight holding the spear, Sir Baptiste, pierced the tip of his spear into the ground and caught the rod of the hammer with the spear, and at the same time, the knight holding the two-handed sword, Sir Pasquale, struck the sword blade against the pole and distorted its trajectory. In the end, Grace’s powerful blow only slid toward the floor and destroyed only the structure.

My hands are shaking. The two knights who defended the attack quickly burrow side by side. Grace gritted her teeth. The power of her hammer she wields is her absolute peak, but her problem is her momentary void when retrieving her weapon. She wasn’t a disadvantage against huge, slow demons or monsters, but her problem was that she was up against her humans. Before Grace could raise her hammer again, Sir Baptiste stomped on her head, closing her distance.

The tip of Sir Baptiste’s spear aims at Grace’s abdomen and is swung. Kwagak! Due to losing track and twisting, the plate armor does not break, but large gold is engraved on it. She immediately seized the spearhead and tried to compete with him, but this time Lord Pasquale’s sword charged from the side. Missing her spearhead, Grace lowered her head, and another spearhead came flying.

A terrifying cracking sound split the top of her helm, and Sir Pasquale kicked Grace’s abdomen with her foot in a circular trajectory, her center of gravity collapsing. Superman’s kicks are definitely as powerful as cannonballs. Grace rolled on her floor, gagging. A huge two-handed sword rises above the fallen woman.

“Smite (smite).”

Boo-wook! A choking, ripping sound through her air, as when she swings her hammer. Grace raised her guard in time, but the durability of her armor did not allow her to defend against the mighty sword. Her Grace’s right arm was shattered to the bone, and the impact reached her torso beyond her crossed arms. Tuong! Her body bounced off the floor like a spring.

Many knights and priests swallowed in vain. If you were there, you are imagining. A battle between superhumans and superhumans, it felt like my eardrums would explode just by getting close. Those who worship the same god are not what you would see in the head mountain.

Crying! Forced to swallow the blood welling up in her stomach, Grace managed to lift herself up. It is impossible to even lift a finger at her broken right arm. Soon she sees two knights creeping over her helm toward herself on her knees.

“Why…… Are you even doing this?”

Grace managed to move her tongue inside her fishy mouth.

“Kyungs, not only do not belong to the 1st parish, but they must not have been very close to Kuluk and Yeha.”

“… ….”

The two knights were silent. Grace had noticed the change in the mood between the two of them from earlier. She would rather pity or blame herself, but it’s strange that she gave her blind loyalty to this extent. Her blurry vision goes beyond the two, numerous knights and priests, towards Baolof, who is hiding in the safety of the back. She had already experienced similar things with other nobles.

“No way…… Baolof, you…… !”

“It’s rude.”

Her silence was only broken when her two knights thrust their blades at her. Her own consciousness seems to remain, but her mind is already possessed. What is this? The church knights who have served God for decades are playing around with just one man’s trick. On the other hand, if you see that all the key figures in the cathedral except yourself are hostile to you, you can now easily define who is evil. No more back

Grace raised her broken right arm. Did he take it as an expression of surrender? A smile formed at the corner of Baolof’s mouth, and the two of them also relaxed slightly in the hands holding their weapons. That’s their fault she murmured in a clear voice.

“Come.”

“What… ….”

“Spiritual Weapon.”

Wedge juice!! The huge hammer, which had collapsed on the floor earlier and did not dare to retrieve it due to its weight, was fired at the caster like a cannonball in an instant. Since this is also a miracle, it was one of the clear advantages compared to carrying a weapon in the first place.

As the two knights instinctively rolled to dodge the hammer’s charge, Grace quickly grabbed the handle and took a stance. The right arm was shattered by the blow of the two-handed sword, but now that arm was clearly supporting the weight of the hammer.

Advanced Healing (Greater Hill). He is already recovering from the fracture. The miraculous power she had accumulated so far increased her healing power by leaps and bounds.

“What are you doing! Hurry up and get it done!”

Cardinal hiding behind the knights shouted urgently. As expected, there is something secret about his orders. No matter how guilty they are in their position, the way these two people deal with them is very strange. He was unleashing a blow that could lead to death against the knights of the same cathedral.

Abandon the arrogant idea of incapacitation. Unless you are prepared to die, you will not be able to overcome this situation. Grace swung her hammer the moment the two men approached her.

The same trajectory as before, a powerful blow. However, this time it won’t be able to stop it in the same way. She murmured in her helm.

“────Divine, Smite (Divine Strike).”

※

Grace continued to run. The weapon summoning miracle has long since exhausted its effect. She ran desperately down the hallway, carrying her scarred body.

Since one of her outer walls was completely torn down and her vigilance disturbed, it would take quite a while for her to track herself. Most of the remaining priests in the cathedral are around them, and the only people they encounter are apprentice priests and nuns. They noticed the commotion, but they didn’t know why, and they bowed their heads first.

Grace eventually reached the spire where her father would be imprisoned. A place you seldom visit. She slammed the door open as soon as she felt her urgency. However, most of them were for insignificant uses such as bedrooms or confessions. There was no place to feel the presence.

Grace ran again. The cathedral was so vast and complex that even with her leg strength she could not do it all at once. After her frantic run, the place she arrived at was, ironically, a chapel. There was not a single ant in Zira outside of Mass, but strangely she couldn’t leave the place.

There is something in this place. Just like when she visits Baolof’s office, she feels a different presence. The moment she thought so, an arrow of light that shattered the glass of the chapel and flew from afar landed on her shoulder.

“Huh…… 100 Million!”

Her armor around her back shattered and she fell to one knee, her pain tearing her muscles. In the meantime, footsteps were heard from here and there in an instant, and soon numerous knights and priests, as well as the two knights and cardinals who had cornered him, stormed into the chapel.

“You hit. Sirs, subdue him.”

“…… !”

Grace forcibly tried to neutralize the arrow that was blocking her torso. If she could use a bow, she was the only one among the cathedral knights. If it was to the point where he was aiming at himself through the glass from the building on the other side, it would be safe to say that his hostility had already fallen into Baolof’s hands.

Buck and go. Two knights approach. No, it wasn’t just them, her numerous paladins surrounded her. Grace read the agitation and emotions in their eyes. However, none of them were willing to step out for her. Even though they know that this situation is strange and that the sanctions are too extreme, no one opens their mouths.

“Baolof!!”

Grace runs away screaming. However, her movements are lightly blocked by two knights. Falling out, Grace summoned her hammer again. Unlike the narrow aisle, the wide chapel was able to create various trajectories as long as wooden tables were an obstacle.

However, the situation does not change. Grace resisted, but the strength of two cathedral knights was stronger than hers. No, in the middle of the battle, as the arrows flying through the broken window continued to aim for her back, she was eventually forced to fall to the floor.

“Are you satisfied now?”

Baolof asks. Grace gritted her teeth. However, even so, her body no longer has any strength. She summoned her weapon again, but her exhausted energy only conjured a shapeless, quivering beam of light. She grabbed the light like a rope.

“Let’s ask for responsibility later. Priests, take this person…….”

“Why?”

Grace vomited her words. The scent of blood mingles with that voice.

“Why are you all still?”

“Why, why is no one questioning it?”

Small, ripples. Unlike the two knights, the other knights and priests were not under Baolof’s control. However, they don’t act. I rushed and ran, but that was all. Only obey and be silent.

“Has anyone noticed anything strange about the way the old priest is dressed, or having been to the monastery? How could the face of a person who turned himself into heresy for the sake of personal desire become so wrinkled and old?”

Grace sobbed. In your heart you probably know. This is just violence, not justice. She was suspicious of Baolof’s impatient behavior, though she suspected that the elderly priest whom she had detained days earlier might not be a heretic. They never try to end the bystander. Only be silent

Grace asked the two knights this time.

“Why should an innocent person be executed? Why should an innocent person be sacrificed for the desire of an old man?”

“…… Impolite.”

“That guy! I don’t know what they did to the Lords. But, at least if you have the same god, open your eyes from the illusion!”

Grace kept trying to get up. Her but her two knights won’t leave her alone. They trampled on the back with several arrows stuck in it, kicked it, and continued to beat it so that it could not get up. Her helmet was split in half by the superhuman violence, but she still desperately grabbed the light beam.

“My Goddess.”

She said.

“I have never regretted serving you like now. Is silence your only doctor? You do not save your lowly servant.”

“…… Ha, look!! The appearance of an apostate who doubts the great El-Ra!! Kyeong-eun is also…….”

“Please!!”

In the crowded chapel, her tearful prayer resounds.

“If my voice can be heard, please do justice. Please do not break the order.”

The ripples grow. An unknown emotion rattled inside the knights’ helmets. Wrinkles formed around Baolof’s eyes. I couldn’t let her babble any longer. He believed that now, weakened, his strength would work, and he stepped forward with his hand.

However, the pace stopped midway. It was because the knights escorting him were pushed to both sides by a sudden blow.

Pink rose like a haze. Sir Baptiste swung the long spear, but the woman was already within the gap. A black dagger rushed down her thick neck.

The green ran amok carrying the earth on its back. Lord Pasquale’s great sword collided with the warrior’s great ax, and the impact deafened Baolof.

What’s going on? Grace turned her wet eyes upward with her naked face exposed. However, there is still only an ugly man’s distorted expression. Then she felt a hand wrap around her body.

“Wake up.”

She turned her head. Half of her face was obscured by her helmet, and she couldn’t quite make out the blurry figure of hers. But her voice was still the one of her dreams.

A body full of scars.

A body full of scars.

A body with arrows.

He embraced everyone.

“Who are you?”

Not a believer or a knight. The wizard replied.

“A colleague.”
