Raising the Saint of the Evil God in the Novel

Chapter 36

36 – Chapter 36

-Kikkik

With the sound of the door closing, Illyana looked around her and looked around, and then she took out the things she had brought from her arms.

One ID card and one envelope containing a letter.

Identification was flimsy, so that’s not too surprising.

But what about that letter?

I don’t think that the heavenly spirit could have hidden a trap in the letter without worthy of its name.

What I’m worried about is that the letter says something about the mansion.

That would never be good for Illyana.

…I didn’t want to do this.

[…My servant. Close your eyes and open the letter.]

“Yes, yes….”

Pre-screening?

It’s not like I’m dealing with a child, so I wonder if I should go this far, but I can’t help it considering the damage Illyana will do if the content I’m worried about is written.

Illyana’s hand touches the junction of her stationery, and the stationery opens as if her lock was unlocked.

And the letter that appeared in it.

In the letter, neat letters were arranged.

‘Opening this must mean that the letter was properly delivered.’

That’s how the letter started.

‘First of all, the place you told me about is true.’

‘However, I don’t know if it was what you were aiming for, but the results weren’t very good.’

…What?

‘While a large number of Paladins on our side were killed, the main forces of the Eclipse Church were also fairly punished. With this, all the conditions you asked for must have been fulfilled.’

‘It’s heartbreaking that we suffered more casualties than expected this time, but I don’t intend to blame you for this.’

‘This was also the price I had to pay.’

No, that’s not what I was thinking.

What I thought was to have the Celestial Paladins rush in and completely crush the Eclipse Church.

Of course, since they lived in the shadows, they would somehow escape and survive, so the damage wouldn’t be too great.

Still, it was meaningful to kill that momentum even more….

“You mean you were robbed in reverse! This!”

In a surprise attack, they found out the location of the original base and attacked it.

Furthermore, since the saintess, the greatest strength of the Church of Eclipse, is here, the fighting power of the Church has drastically diminished.

It’s natural to win, and the key should be how many heads you’ve picked.

This is no different from being robbed.

What the hell happened?

While lamenting the incompetence of the Celestial God while thinking such things, the letter in Illyana’s hand turns into particles of her light and then disappears.

At the same time, Illyana, who had disappeared from her hand, opened her eyes in surprise.

Then, as if she remembered what I had told her to do, she quickly covered her eyes with both of her hands.

“I’m sorry!”

[…It’s okay. You can open your eyes now.]

Well, it wasn’t the mansion’s business, but it was a letter she wasn’t sure whether Illyana could read it or not, so I thought it was a good thing I closed her eyes.

******

After he checked the letter, the letter turned into light and disappeared.

So I have only one small card left.

Ah, that’s two.

Another ID that should be in the secret pocket of the tattered dress.

There are two of them.

While prostrate on the bed, he pulled his head out of the waves of fabric and looked at the ID card in his right hand.

‘Illyana. Last name… I don’t have one.’

“Haa…”

This should be more like my real identity.

But why is it so empty?

Yes. Now you have to slowly accept it.

That I am still not out of that mansion.

Now I have to face the work at the mansion, accept it, and let it go.

Because I can’t avoid and hide forever.

As I toss and turn and lie down looking at the ceiling, various thoughts run through my head.

‘Come to think of it, I don’t even know Mr. Ea’s last name.’

‘I don’t even know what Mr. Ea liked.’

‘…I should have asked.’

Why didn’t I think of asking those things?

Ea always cared about me, but what about me?

I just received what was given.

When I thought about it, that was all.

There was no reciprocation for what was received and no curiosity about the person who gave it.

As I unfold my buried thoughts and go back one by one, my nose naturally frowns.

I tried my best not to cry, but it was futile.

Things I can’t do anymore.

Things we don’t know anymore.

Because they are so pitiful, so wasteful.

I try to release that regret and regret in the form of a liquid.

“Heh… Heh… I’m sorry…”

However, even if I let go of my regrets, I did not think that the bottom would be visible, and in the end I let go of my consciousness in the torrent of regret.

-Smart

“A kid?”

For some reason, I still can’t hear an answer from inside the door.

In order not to wake Illyana, who was probably sleeping, I kept the noise down as much as possible and opened the door gently.

Then the situation in the room caught my eye.

Illyana lay on the bed as if dead, holding her ID card tightly in her arms.

There were dry white traces of tears at the corners of her eyes, as if to indicate that her tears had passed, and similar traces of tears were left on her bedspread.

As soon as I saw that scene, I understood the situation.

‘…How good it must have been that I even shed tears.’

I couldn’t possibly fathom the size of that joy as I don’t believe in God.

But if there’s one thing you can know, it’s that at least Illyana was so happy that she fell asleep from crying.

When I thought that, I didn’t do anything, but a smile came to my face for no reason.

“Ugh… My little one… Good night.”

With that said, I left the room without even covering myself with a blanket.

How ashamed she would be if she woke up and realized that she had been caught crying.

It was such consideration.

Edan has work to do today, so while she was training alone at the training ground, Illyana came to see her just like yesterday.

What’s different is that you came alone today?

“Hmm. Little. Did you read the letter yesterday?”

Let’s ask that question with a bit of mischief.

“Ah, yes, yes.”

“Can you tell me what it says?”

“Sorry…”

“Well, it’s okay.”

It wasn’t a question I asked expecting an answer to.

It was just a question I asked because I wanted to see the reaction.

Having Illiana sit at one side of her training ground and proceed with the training alone, it reminds me of her first meeting with Illyana.

I blew David lightly.

…Then wouldn’t it be possible to some extent as a training opponent?

I want to borrow the help of other gang members in the absence of Edan, but everyone is busy.

They must have gone to work even now, and the few remaining members must be spending a precious few days off a month.

I cannot summon them and use them as my sparring opponents.

In that case, shall we lend Iliana’s hand?

“Kid. Would you like to spat with me?”

“You mean Dalian?”

“Uh, just fight lightly. I will turn on the virtual device and do it.”

When I’m with Edan, I turn it off because it’s hard to detect her killing power, but I can’t turn it off when I don’t know Illyana’s skills.

In the first place, what I did as a skill test was just to establish a justification for keeping me by my side, so there was no way it would be a test like that.

“…I understand.”

Illyana pondered for a moment, then she nodded and got up from her seat.

And Noctua hanging on Illyana’s shoulder.

Yeah, there was that too.

For some reason, it wasn’t easy to notice that it was there if I didn’t pay attention to it, so I forgot about it.

“Ah, Noctua. Please drop me off.”

“No. Let’s try it with him too.”

Since it’s Phryxia’s masterpiece, it will definitely be useful for training.

…That’s what I was thinking.

“Start!”

As soon as the lever is pulled, a blue light fills the room.

And the moment I set myself up for confrontation,

-Piik

“… Huh?”

I was lying on my back in a room where the blue light disappeared in an instant.

“No, Noctua…”

When I get up, I see Noctua landing on Illyana’s shoulder.

“…Again.”

The room turned blue again,

-Piik

With the sound of cutting the wind, she twisted her body to match Noctua’s appearance, but she couldn’t avoid Noctua, who flew from behind again, and fell forward as it was.

“Again.”

Something goes wrong.

-Pip Piik Piik

After trying several times, he managed to avoid Noctua’s three consecutive charges with a move close to a successful feat.

But as if this was no big deal, Noctua rushed right in front of me again.

‘How many times have I been beaten by this!’

This time, there is a countermeasure.

Using the spear as a pole, it rises and recites a spell.

“Pascal!”

Then the air behind my back explodes and pushes me out.

Above Illyana’s head, which was reached in an instant.
