Chapter 327: Hero of Laios (6)

The people of Laios and I would be thinking the same.

I requested the Republic to take over the demon summoner Jin Qing, but there was still no answer. There was nothing to be heard other than saying that they would grasp the situation a little more closely.

Of course, the Republic’s remarks to closely grasp the situation were excuses and bullsh*t. There was no way they could do anything.

The place where we confronted the demon had already been erased from the map, leaving no traces other than a bunch of lights.

Even in Laios, they were refusing the people of the Republic to pass over. The only evidence left was Ito Souta’s conviction and the Goddess’s Mirror we’ve recorded the incident with.

No matter what I thought, they couldn’t grasp the situation.

Nevertheless, it would be irrelevant to interpret that bullsh*t as an expression of the will to protect Jin Qing, no matter what.

I knew that the Republic wasn’t as sensitive to black magic as the State, but what happened would affect the entire neutral nation. The Republic’s foreigners were also killed, and in some way, it was a case that was bound to be entangled in international affairs.

Despite all these backgrounds, the Republic chose to protect the guy after listening to Jin Qing.

‘They said men are blind in their own causes.’

I didn’t know what was going on, but he might be trying to clarify this case and put his sins on me.

In fact, the probability of a bomb dropping on me, who had so much evidence, converged to zero, but I still had no choice but to be dissatisfied with the fact that the opponent with a grudge was still alive.

Of course, I didn’t have to explain that I was also swaying public opinion.

I felt a little sorry for the demon worshiper Ito Souta, but that was the reason his name had been repeatedly mentioned recently.

“The demon worshiper Ito Souta. And this time, demon summoner Jin Qing…”

“…”

“Does the Honorary Cardinal think there is a connection between those two?”

“It’s probably… hard to say there’s any. We don’t know when they got in contact or what they want, but it doesn’t change that their ultimate goal is the same. The darkness is already deeply rooted in our continent. I knew there were groups of only black wizards all over the place, but… I didn’t think they would be expanding their influence this much. In fact, it was just a coincidence that I stepped on Jin Qing’s tail…”

“You are saying that the situation seems to be more serious than the Holy See thought.”

“Yes. Maybe they have their own communication channels. Given that the Republic currently protects Jin Qing, it would be better to think that the Republic is also affected by its roots. In the worst case, we can think… it’s already completely stained…”

“Already so far… Oh, God…”

“Think of the case of the State. No one knew that Ito Souta was a demon worshiper. During the long period of his career at Celia, no one had noticed that Ito Souta was a demon worshiper. If Ito Souta had swallowed the country as it is, we would have had to take a position similar to the current Republic. Maybe the State would’ve faced a great threat, just like Laios.”

“It’s terrible just to imagine.”

“It’s not just the Republic. In each country or city, there may be places touched by the demon. Yes. I’m sure of it. There certainly will. First of all, I will report on this event…”

“Ah! Honorary Cardinal. You don’t have to. I appreciate your thought, but for now, please consider recovering your body as the top priority.”

“What? But…”

“His Holiness said it directly. He said that he would move immediately after the Honorary Cardinal got better… so he told us not to force you. I understand that you have many worries in many ways, but it would be better to let your body rest sufficiently. We know how much the Honorary Cardinal is thinking of the Holy See and the Goddess Benigore. But now, in this situation, the Goddess will not want you to jump back to her front line. The first thing is to recover your body.”

“…”

What was a little annoying in the meantime was that my movement was limited.

I couldn’t move properly because of those who overprotected me, although I got tremendous benefits from exaggerating to be hurt. In fact, this situation was not confined to the Holy See.

“Oscar-nim.”

“You said that when we’re alone, you would call me Maid Alice, Honorary Cardinal.”

“Ah. Yes, Maid Alice. I made a mistake. Haha.”

“So. Does the tea suit your taste? I should have prepared some refreshments, but I didn’t have time, coming in a hurry…”

“Haha. It’s fine. It’s been a long time since I had the tea that Maid Alice made, and it feels like my body is already recovering. More importantly, the alliance with the neutral country…”

“Yes. It’s going well. Some of these tribal kingdoms also want the same thing as us… No, please forget about this. Recovering your body right now is the top priority, but I’m talking about work again. I understand the Honorary Cardinal, but I hope you don’t think about anything other than relaxing now.”

“But the situation is…”

“I know you don’t believe, but we’re doing our best, too.”

“Maid Alice…”

“I will do my best to finish the work so that it does not become a nuisance. So please…”

“Yes. Okay. If you say it like that…”

And so did the State’s leader, Alice, no, Oscar, and even Kim Hyunsung began to protect me as if protecting a baby bird.

Whether this was shocking to him as well, he started acting as if he would give it all.

“Hyunsung, now, I should slowly…”

“No, Kiyoung. You can still lie down a little longer. Hyejin and Hee-young are taking care of the guild-related work together. I am also working hard. In the meantime, you have been running too crazy. You can rest a little more.”

Although the lovely returner showed warm eyes and urged me to rest.

‘You, your political sense is zero.’

There was no way I wouldn’t feel worried.

Thanks to our trustworthy Cho Hyejin and Sun Hee-young, I felt that the issues related to the current case were smoothly resolved.

In fact, it wasn’t a long time after waking up, but due to my nature of becoming anxious when I stay still, I had to get stressed out ways.

While lying down, statues in honor of the heroes were climbing on the square of Laios, and even the sixth volume of How an Alchemist and a Genius Swordsman Love appeared in Laios.

Whenever I saw the statues in the square getting more and more distinct, and every time the wandering Laios maids talked about the novel, I realized that time was passing me by.

Practically, not much time had passed, but seeing the popular bestseller in the State was hitting Laios, it wasn’t a short time either.

‘What kind of novel is that? Is it that fun?’

I didn’t know why, but it was surprising to see that they were selling like hotcakes.

Anyway, whether it was big or small, the things surrounding me were gradually changing. In fact, I was anxious about what the next move of the demon summoner would be, but the Republic still remained silent.

Around this time, I, too, had completely let go of my external work.

‘The State is not that incompetent.’

I already had arranged everything, so if they could not achieve results in this situation, it was only right to seek asylum in another kingdom, even for the sake of my future.

‘Instead…’

It wouldn’t be bad to have time to solve internal problems rather than outside.

Not only did I set a schedule of the study to find out about the semi-mythic-grade class of the Alchemist of Light, but I also started to make a lot of hypotheses.

I also began thinking of some solutions to the problem surrounding the lovely returner and the management of people in need of it, including Jung Hayan and Cha Hee-ra, and discussions with Lee Jihye.

The busy work quickly relieved the feelings of being unable to stay still.

Of course, the fact that there was an important thing to deal with didn’t need to be mentioned twice.

“I’m sorry, master. I’m sorry.”

Yuno Kasugano, who was ready to become a demon summoner companion, was an important issue.

“No matter how much you ask for my sin, I have nothing to say. Please forgive me for making this choice even though I knew you wouldn’t like it.”

“…”

“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Sniff! Please don’t throw me away. Please don’t abandon this girl.”

Looking at her quietly, it was a sight to see her shedding tears.

I’ve heard many times why Kasugano saved him, but I was compelled to find out with this incident that her future wasn’t always right.

In fact, it was not that I didn’t believe in her.

She was the one who took care of me in many ways when I fainted, and it was she who had been the most active in fixing things and swaying the media since then.

I couldn’t just openly hate her.

Lee Jihye asked if we could really trust Yuno Kasugano, but from my point of view, Yuno Kasugano was a card that was attractive enough.

However, if I considered that Yuno Kasugano and I didn’t have a very good relationship in the first round…

‘She wouldn’t be gathering energy to backstab me, right?’

It was something worth worrying about.

As a result, in the first round, the black trash Lee Kiyoung had made Yuno Kasugano’s life miserable, and she knew that, too.

Although she said it was a happy time, anyone could tell that it was an experience far from happiness.

The chances were small, but I couldn’t help but wonder for me, who felt suspicious.

‘To be planning a revenge of the first round…’

There were many awkward points in many ways.

First of all, I held her life and death ticket.

However, if I considered that looking forward to the future or the black world, she might have thought differently about me, it was hard not to look at her with suspicion.

“…”

“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry.”

“Well, it would be better to listen to the story in detail once again. I hope this time, I can understand.”

“I can’t explain the details. However, Jin Qing shouldn’t end up in that way in that place. The master… The master…”

“…”

“The master may be in danger.”

There was more than half the probability that she was really worried about me.

However, there was no guarantee that she wouldn’t have the perfect plan in her mind to send me to hell. It was right to think that it was an issue that gave me headaches in many ways.
