Of course, this is just an exaggerated way of describing it, but when you look up and see the sky revealed among the huge falling rocks, like fragments, you will also have such a sense of confusion.
Nolan Lusi grabbed my clothes. After the silver-white magic flashed several times, the sudden bright light in front of me made me uncomfortable.
After all, I have been underground since just now, and the rapid spatial transfer made me feel like vomiting, but I just retched for a while and got used to it - I probably have more or less understood the use of space magic. , so the body is gradually adapting.
Well, that's a bit idealistic.
When I raised my head, I realized that I seemed to be standing next to the ruins of the church, surrounded by a large group of fallen people. I didn't expect that the location of the church was so good, with several floors underground...
"After all, if the church collapsed, no one would be hurt."
Nolan Lusi curled her lips and said, "There is nothing we can do in this case."
No, it's just that in this case, someone will come out and say something to me.
"What exactly have I protected?"
Yes, that's it.
Only then did I realize that there seemed to be another person present.
Canxing, he didn't know when he came to the church.
But he is brave.
The moment I saw Canxing, I subconsciously glanced at Nolan Lusi, who was holding my clothes next to me.
A brave man can recognize demons.
But Canxing didn't look at Nolan Lusi, but walked straight towards me.
"...I never thought something like this could happen right under my nose."
I forced a smile and said, "As long as the result is good - didn't you go to Ledesa? Why are you here?"
He walked up to me, was silent for a moment and then said: "It has been dealt with. In fact, when I rushed over, people from the Holy See had already arrived in advance to clean up the scene."
Is the Holy See so efficient in resolving matters?
"From what you said, it seems like something unexpected happened?"
Canxing took a deep breath, and then said with a slightly dazed look: "Ledesa disappeared."
"······What's the meaning?"
"Literally." Canxing said with a heavy face, "By the time I arrived in Redsa, the Holy See guards mobilized from the surrounding cities were already checking to see if there was anything useful left."
"Most of the entire Ledesa seems to have been 'swallowed' by something. A large piece of it has been dug out within a radius starting from a certain point underground in Ledesa, although there is still some left in the middle of the circle. There are some things, but there is no regularity in why those things were not devoured. Now the Holy See believes that someone summoned a demon similar to 'Gluttony', which caused most of the city to be destroyed, and basically all the survivors were He fainted without realizing what happened, and when he woke up, he was already being treated - and there were very few survivors."
"That 'Gluttony' is actually——"
Kellas seemed to be tempted to say something explosive, so I slapped her mouth and quickly changed the subject: "Then why did you come to Banzan City?"
Canxing smiled bitterly.
"Banzan City, I know from other colleagues who arrived there that there seems to be something strange about Banzan... I was worried about you before, but now it turns out that you are more worthy of being called a brave than me. After all, I Even if the information was obtained, nothing could be protected in the end.”
He looked up at the sky and said: "Just when I rushed here without stopping, most of the sky was filled with blood red. I was worried that what happened in Redsa would happen again - but now, it seems that you have stopped this. Disaster?"
"How can you be sure of this?" I said with a slight cough.
He pointed at the big pit behind him, and then said with a wry smile: "It would be difficult for me to ignore the connection between the big pit behind you and the disappearance of the vision in the sky."
"Actually, this is not entirely our role." I racked my brains and tried to reduce my sense of presence as much as possible. "Well, it's actually the delusional person's fault. We actually played a bystander in this process... ···”
The God of Wishes originally had the idea of killing himself, and our arrival just gave them a better solution.
I sighed and said, "How about I tell you the outline of the incident? Just say that with the help of enthusiastic citizens, the incident was successfully resolved."
Canxing's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said, "You seem to have something to hide?"
"Well, actually, you could have reduced my role infinitely when you reported it. Tuban is actually the one to blame for himself -"
He said with some surprise: "The initiator is Bishop Tuban?"
"Yes, that's him."
Canxing frowned and said with some seriousness: "I remember that he was a famous researcher in the Holy See. At that time, I didn't know why he applied to become the bishop of a small place."
Maybe he heard about what happened here.
"His research failed." That's all I can say.
I don’t know where Tuban is now, but I have no intention of getting involved anymore.
With this kind of phenomenon appearing, I am afraid that the civil war in the White Empire is not a big deal now. First of all, figuring out what happened here is a much higher priority than fighting for power.
And my identity cannot withstand investigation.
If it were just an empire-level investigation, of course it would be difficult to find out my false identity without my information, but the Holy See is different. After all, I was once a brave man. Although there is a high probability that I am a dead brave man now, but As long as a thoughtful person does a little reasoning, he will find that the situation is different.
What's more, the majestic Demon King of Night is standing next to me...
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked yet." Canxing said politely, "These two are-"
I said nervously: "These two, ah, this, are my female friends."
Canxing opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed it back.
"...I see, I will help with what you said. Now let's go see how Bishop Tuban is doing."
Less than one kilometer outside Banzan City, we found Tuban lying on the ground, conscious.
This is the closest place in a straight line to the border of the demon territory - even though there are still hundreds of kilometers to go.
When he saw me, he smiled and said: "Hero - you succeeded."
I was a little surprised at his calmness and asked helplessly: "Don't you resent me? You ruined my good things or something."
Tuban looked at the sky and said slowly after a long time: "The moment I became a god, I already knew my failure."
