Running Away From The Hero!

# 68 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

< 1st Place: The Karean Empire Emperor >

At the top of my list was the Karean Empire.

What list?

Of course it's a list of those who shouldn't be.

By the way, the 2nd place was occupied by the nobles of the Karean Empire and the 3rd place by Karan Empire soldiers.

But I could see that. It was a frog in a well.

However, I have lived in Howling, educated since my hometown burned down when I was very young.

Howling.

A vicious organization on the continent, one of the two so-called empires was the strongest.

Yes. Howling is an organization hiding out in the Karean Empire.

I have lived most of my life only in the Karean Empire. That's why I didn't know how big the world was.

How much madness is there in that vastness?

And today I realized that the world was big, and I changed the top of the list.

< 1st Place: Church of Peace

2nd Place: The Karean Empire Emperor >

Yes, it is.

The Order of Peace took place after pushing the Karean Emperor, who was number one on the list of those who should not have been joined by only two people!

“I am innocent! He's the bad guy! ”

I looked at the Church of Peace saint who was shooting at me with a really unfair look.

“This is how it looks now, but I haven't given up yet! I will uncover your evil tricks and bring justice to justice! ”

Look at those eyes full of certainty.

Since she was a follower of the evil god, the saint who did not say anything wrong except what the evil god said was definitely a powerful enemy. An enemy that needs to be stepped on right now.

But now it was more advantageous to defend than to take an attack.

“It seems the saint still doesn't trust me. ”

Like this.

“Sorry, sorry, sorry. ”

An impressive priest bows his head to me and starts apologizing.

I squeezed the tears out of the priest's eyes as he lowered his head.

“No. There must be a reason for her. It's all my fault. ”

It can be seen by others, so keep your head slightly down and your eyes tight enough to moisten.

Tears can feel artificial, so squeeze it just before then!

I looked at the saint lovingly, lifting my head so that I could feel her eyes wet.

“A place where the Church of Peace strives for peace in the world. You can see how much Mary, the saint, is doing there. ”

“Well, yes. Mary is always working hard for world peace. ”

“That's what's happening now, you idiots! That's why we have to get him! ”

Rrrrgh!

The saint cries out.

She was the strongest saint with paladin-class fighting skills.

I'm a paladin and I beat up all the priests.

Just hearing the description reminds me of a transparent dragon.

But now she has done nothing.

“You've been working so hard... you must be exhausted. ”

“Yes……. I'm going to help you relax there for a while. ”

That place was familiar to me. I've been in this place for days.

“Yes. The floor is a little stiff. Do you want some straw? ”

Thinking about living in a special wagon made of solid bars, I decided to use my heart in particular.

“Thank you for your kindness. ”

“Profit! How long are you planning on keeping me locked up? ”

“Until we get to the Church. ”

“The Church in the Empire? ”

“No, this is the headquarters. ”

“W-we can't.... ”

“Yes. I'm just going to the wagon. ”

Seeing the white face of the bored saint, I felt a refreshing feeling that had gone down from 10 years old.

“Don't you think it'll take almost a month to get to the wagon? ”

“Yes. Rest well for a month. ”

“Now, hold on! Where's the bathroom? ”

“Oh, I didn't think of that……. ”

There was hope in the eyes of the saint.

I have seen many people while training in evil organizations, once a temporary instructor, and once a formal instructor.

That was the human eye that wanted to stand up and say I had to go to the bathroom.

“Oh, I've prepared it for the Empire. I've been in debt for days. ”

But you can't let the man who put me in jail, or the bitch, get away.

“Bring it. ”

“I understand.”

When I gave the order to the soldier I had prepared, I brought the goods right away.

Ting, Ting!

You throw the item you received from the soldier under the wagon, and a clear sound echoes through it.

“This, this……. ”

“Ah... This is a product called the Code, Holy Mother. ”

It weighed a little bit because it was made of iron, and it was silver, not gold, but not faulty for use as a lumen.

I used to have no problem with it.

“Do you know who doesn't know that? ”

The girl with a red face screams, but her tone changes.

Amazing, the power of the lumen.

It's drawing reason from the angry saint to her head.

“Y-you want me to use this? ”

“Maybe if you can get out of that cage... you'll need a lumen to stay there." ”

“Come on, I've got a magic restraint, but you can send me to the bathroom! Right?"

She looked at the priest in front of me with her desperate eyes.

“I didn't think you'd be prepared in advance.... Thank you for the favor of the Empire. ”

The priest bowed his head and thanked me as if he could not hear the words of the holy woman.

“Hah, Priest Hastel! ”

Despite her desperate eyes, she was a holy woman calling out the name of the priest, but this priest, called Hastel, did not seem to hear the voice of the holy woman.

“This should give you a comfortable journey. ”

“Helping the Church of Peace always strive for the world. It's an honor to be an empire.”

“Hahaha! I will not forget the grace of the Empire. ”

“Grace. The Empire will always support the Order of Peace. ”

Haha! Haha!

The priest and I smiled warmly at each other.

“Why, why is it so warm? Can't you hear me? Did you put some kind of soundproof spell on the wagon? ”

Why? This priest wants to leave here soon.I want to let you go soon.

We have the same goal, so we have to agree.

“Then we should go... ”

“I'm sorry I couldn't get far. There's a war going on... ”

“No need to be sorry. We know there's nothing we can do about it. ”

“Oh, well……. Peace be with you always. ”

“Yes. May Lord Astor bless the god of peace. ”

“Oh, no! ”

“Will do."

“Yo, forgive me, Priest Hastel! ”

“Let's go!”

“Hastel Priest Aelle! ”

Hiiiiiiing!

The screams of the saint and the cry of the horse resound.

Hearing the screams of the wagon and the holy woman getting farther and farther away, it really feels like it's over.

“He's gone?”

“Yes. Finally. ”

“The Church of Peace.... ”

Even the princess looked at the back of the wagon with very complicated eyes.

“I don't know much about religion... but not all religions are like that. ”

“If all the churches are like that, you'd better believe in evil gods. ”

“That's right. I never would have imagined giving medicine to their saints. ”

“That's right.”

For example, if you go to the same place when you travel, some people think it's noisy and others think it's quiet.

Why is that?

The reason is simple.

In the former case, when there were noisy people, and in the latter case, when there were quiet people.

There is not much difference. Where people live, there are different races.

It's just a coincidence that someone you meet might be a normal person or a lunatic.

We don't judge a group by just one person.

So if I had been a saint, I wouldn't have put the Order of Peace on the top of the list of people I'd never be with again.

You just wrote down the Church of Peace's holy woman.

“Even the testimony of the Elves confirmed by the Church can't make a saint drink water with sleeping pills and put her to sleep. ”

She was a person of great faith and magic.

If you put that person to sleep so quickly, you must have used enormous sleeping pills.

“I wouldn't normally carry a sleeping pill like that.... Probably brought it by checking the Elves' testimony. ”

“That was surprisingly swift. ”

“That's how much the Church knew about the saints. ”

Even if you know it well, it is not normal to think about sleeping pills for the saints.

Moreover, it was not just thinking, but it was scary to implement it directly.

Is that it?

I expected the saint to run away, filling my hands and feet with magical restraints.

“Careful. You'll get there next time. ”

“Yes. If there is a Order of Peace nearby, I will try my best to escape." ”

As soon as the saint caught up with her, she should have known when she was experimenting on herself.

I could be confident when I saw the image of a saint beating the paladins separately and the church taking her.

They are dangerous men who will not stand in the way of peace in this world.

For Iron, indeed. No, the Cultists who could attack for the god of peace were the Church of Peace.

I, from the evil side, am the reigning supreme!

“Should I sprinkle some salt...? ”

“Why the expensive salt? ”

“It's one of my traditions. It's a tradition of putting salt on the grass. ”

“It's not a fraternity, it's a god of peace. Isn't that where you come from, a common peasant? Was the town rich enough to sprinkle expensive salt? ”

It is possible because it is the home of a previous life, not the level of an old home.

I couldn't say it like that, so I had to move on.

“Sprinkle occasionally, sometimes. Just a little bit.”

“Really?"

The princess was also not that suspicious.

“The Church has slowed us down... But we need to prepare now." If it's too late, the plan may fail. ”

The Church of Peace has slowed the operation a lot.

He was General Laisha (reserve) who made me curious about last night when I woke up in the morning.

What other achievements could he have made for the enemy today?

Leave Duke Lydia alone to raise such curiosity, and he will die or stiffen his position as a general before executing our plan.

We can't let that happen.

Even if they are looting, the opponent is the Kingdom of Mercia, which is classified as a military empire.

A place where a proper general could pose a great threat to the Empire if commanded in preparation for the Mado bombing.

“Yes, it was too late. I never thought I'd be able to move the Cult, no matter how long it took. ”

“That's right.”

I was told I didn't know because the report was private, but I knew where to report us.

The Kingdom of Mercia.

The Kingdom of Mercia needed time to find a way to stop the Mado bombing.

That's why he stabbed the Empire without any hard evidence.

“I had a very bad experience because of you. ”

“Yes. We must avenge him. ”

For our revenge, we must carry out the plan quickly and bring the kingdom of Mercia to its grave.

The Grand Duke of Mercia, the Duke of Religious Luisa!

“Your Majesty!"

It was then that a soldier with an urgent expression jumped in.

“Could the enemy have attacked? ”

“Well, yes! ”

“Were you... watching the cult leave? ”

We cannot attack our enemies until the Order of Peace comes.

But the same is true of the enemy's failure to attack.

Since the Church of Peace has invaded our realm, it was said to attack the Church of Peace.

“That's not it. Before the Order of Peace even went out, they tried to attack a small group. ”

“You're crazy.”

They're attacking us even though there's a cult.

There was never a longevity with that kind of guts.

“… Huh? ”

You don't have the guts, but you do have one crazy guy.

“No way... What was the name of the enemy who attacked you? ”

“What?”

In my trembling voice, the princess asked me if I knew anything.

“The captain's name is Duke Relligius Luisa! ”

“Stop, no way! ”

Even the princess was astonished with her eyes wide open.

Dammit! We're screwed. He moves.

“Hey, what's the damage to the enemy? ”

“Yes?”

“What about enemy damage? ”

Usually I worry about the damage to my allies, but this time it was different.

The opponent is Duke Laisha.

You should be worried about the enemy, not your allies.

And as I expected…….

“Oh, there's no damage to our allies. I was waiting with good defenses, so I was able to defeat the enemy and win the Grand Prize. And Duke Laisha is retreating……. ”

Duke Laisha, our general candidate, has been defeated and is on the move.

“Damn it!”

“Move fast, Ast! ”

The death of Duke Lycia, the center of the plan, even before the plan is implemented.

The desperate Empress and I began to make every effort to save the Duke of Lysha.
