The Player Hides His Past Chapter 111

Episode 111. Do you understand the situation? (1)

Let’s think about it generally.

Goddess Church sacred ground Muon.

Even if the tightly closed door was opened, the eyes of the paladins were still fierce. With tens of thousands of pupils watching, must we find the Saint Fraza?

It really can’t be a dire situation.

“I’m sorry to Guyver…”

“There must have been a misunderstanding, right?”

“The Goddess Church I knew couldn’t be like that for nothing!”

“Anyway, it’s a magic tower. As soon as you move, it will be resolved.”

Besides, if the players are listening to the conversation.

You realize how ridiculously difficult this is.

It’s because if you make a little mistake, you’ll have to write a huge false name.

however.

Again—

my steps did not hesitate in the slightest.

What about tens of thousands of paladins?

What do you mean by the magnificent scale of Muon?

It means that I have pride in Grandfel.

『No devil’s temptations and trials of deception can even damage the lofty pride of Grandfel.』

Even if it was so heavy that it would sink.

A pride that can never be shaken…!

Such pride was speaking.

[The skill ‘Natural Relationship’ is activated.]

You have to breathe the same air as the devil.

That this moment is so unworthy.

“There you go.”

I shifted my gaze and looked at the white building.

Indeed, it is the largest religion on the Arcana continent.

The size of the building is not normal.

Yes, there is a demon in me.

There is a self-proclaimed saintess Freyza.

The entrance to the castle was blocked by a paladin.

“…Have you seen his cold expression? I guess I can’t go in there.”

Some of the players tried to enter that muon’s nature.

It seemed that he had already been stopped.

I tried to open Muon with a dark ulterior motive.

It must be that he has no intention of revealing the place where he is coiled up.

“stupid.”

But are you misunderstanding something?

I don’t know why the natural enemy is called the natural enemy.

Because you can’t go against it under any circumstances.

It’s called the heavenly enemy.

okay.

I noticed it from the moment I set foot in Muon.

As well as the position of the guy.

The paladin of Muon, what dwells in them is not ‘faith’.

That it was just a [status abnormality] of the devil.

‘In order to reach the devil, that paladin must be destroyed.’

Anyway, there are many.

Penetrating the defense line of tens of thousands of paladins?

It’s something that I can’t even think of, but I had a ‘group’ on my back that made it come true.

yes, magic tower. That mage tower that would do whatever it wanted to do.

‘Because you know that such a mage tower moved…’

It must have opened Muon like now.

It’s to increase the watching eyes.

Of course, the Magic Tower doesn’t look at anyone.

Even if the world is watching

If I were to say it, I could wipe out tens of thousands of Paladins who stood in my way.

But let’s avoid that. Even if the Mage Tower doesn’t know, the whole world will notice the Mage Tower.

What confusion will it cause?

I can’t even dare to imagine it.

And in that mayhem.

The devil’s power grows stronger.

‘Cunning.’

Indeed, it devours the Goddess Church.

The temple was like a devil who did a lot of tricks.

Aren’t they on a different level from the demons you’ve seen in real life?

In any situation, he dug a hole through which he could escape.

‘But if it’s a hole, I dig it too.’

This means that there is not just one option.

‘Removing the [status abnormality] inflicted on tens of thousands of paladins.’

No matter how much mana is overflowing, it must be close to impossible according to common sense.

Even with Marcelo’s magic, that would be a bit burdensome, right?

Moreover, the appearance of manifesting magic towards them.

There was no way the Paladins affected by the [Status Abnormality] would just sit and watch.

but i can

There was no hesitation.

I took out the devil’s item from my inventory.

The devil’s item to be sacrificed for the [Exorcism Ritual].

[‘Grim Statue’ has been selected as a sacrifice.]

[The skill ‘Exorcism’ is activated.]

[Invite the selected target to the ‘ritual’.]

‘Ritual’.

A space where demon hunters and demons battle their mental powers.

The demon invited to the ritual loses the ability to sustain the [Abnormal Status].

Even if it’s a status ailment inflicted by some great devil.

yeah i didn’t see it

The Seven Deadly Sins Greed.

And even the status ailments of Demon King Decarabia.

The moment the exorcism was triggered.

Exactly the moment I opened my mouth.

I mean, I watched it become meaningless.

In that sense, it could be unfair.

The fact that the Paladins of Muon, who had been deceived for a long time, escaped from your grasp at once.

But for me, it’s a very natural result.

Demon hunters and demons.

It is a natural enemy that cannot be resisted.

Because it was such a relationship.

No, don’t you know more than anyone else?

Because I was afraid of such a natural enemy.

They must have woven Akshan into a holy temple and sent it to the other world. As if at this moment I recognized the devil. The moment the exorcism was triggered, he must have recognized me.

“How does that feel? You insignificant tribe.”

Of course, my impression was that it was as simple as possible.

Again—

“Wait. We cannot access this place.”

The status ailment is gone.

The paladin blocked me even in the midst of confusion.

I proudly adjusted my outfit and declared.

“Now is the moment of judgment you have been waiting for.”

Paladin Talim Eber’s head was confused.

‘…why am I wary of them?’

Stop——

The hand holding the handle of the sword at the waist felt awkward.

Pointing a sword at civilians.

It was because it was against the rules of the Paladin.

Talim frowned as he recalled the memory.

‘…Words of the saintess.’

Yes, it all started with Saint Freyza.

Talim regained his composure, recalling Freyza’s voice.

warned anyone approaching.

“for a moment. We cannot access this place.”

The answer came right back.

“Now is the moment of judgment you have been waiting for.”

“…!”

moment of judgment?

…Referee?

That word gave Talim a headache.

My head hurt like it would break.

‘Judgment Day…!’

I vaguely recalled what Fraza had said.

until the day of judgment comes.

No matter what happens, we must not escape Muon.

It was because of the saintess’ words.

Didn’t he keep his position even while violating the rules of the paladin?

“!”

It was.

The Arcana Continent is trampled by demons.

innocent people are killed

Even the day his hometown was destroyed.

He was stuck in Muon, waiting for the day of judgment.

“Oooh!”

…I really did?

In an instant, Talim’s uncontrollable nausea soared.

It was because the body and mind were colliding head-on.

Doubt began to bloom in Talim’s heart.

‘…why didn’t I do anything?’

Everything was to keep the saint’s words.

Because I believed that the saintess would lead us to the right place.

The voice continued to Talim, who was struggling to get rid of his doubts.

“Freza.”

“…?”

“Does it still look like a saint to you?”

“…!”

It is blasphemy.

If it was normal, he would have pulled out the sword from his waist reflexively. But Talim couldn’t do that. Because the silver-haired man was right.

‘…Who am I?’

It was because Fraza could no longer trust her.

where did it go wrong

…No, since when did I not notice?

Looking back now, Freyza’s actions didn’t make sense.

The Goddess Church has an obligation to protect its followers.

In the name of the goddess, I have an obligation to save the continent of Arcana, which is being trampled by demons. Fraza was too obsessed with Muon.

however.

‘The revelation of the goddess.’

Every time I had such a doubt, I had a strong thought.

The thought calmed my doubts.

Kwuk—

Talim clenched his fists.

‘Even in the test, my faith is not shaken.’

Yes, the revelation of the goddess will come soon as usual.

He just had to act according to the revelation of the goddess.

“…why.”

However, there was no further revelation from the goddess.

Doubts that I shouldn’t have had been creeping up to my head.

All I could hear was the man’s calm voice.

“The status ailment has disappeared.”

Talim asked involuntarily.

“…Status Abnormality?”

sort of curses.

Are you saying I’ve been cursed all this time?

Other than that, his body was in perfect condition.

The suspicion in Talim’s mind grew more and more.

‘He said that the status abnormality had disappeared.’

If you don’t know what kind of curse it is.

You just have to look backwards to see what went missing.

But no matter how you look back.

There was only one thing missing from him.

It was only the revelation of the goddess.

“Ooh ooh ooh!!”

Nausea flared up again.

To see such ugliness in front of others in Muon. Talim hurriedly came to his senses and looked at the man. However, the man’s expression did not change at all.

Talim opened his mouth.

“…if she’s not a saint, what is she?”

I had uncontrollable doubts.

So I had no choice but to ask the man.

Still, Talim longed for it.

Please don’t let the man answer.

But this time, too, the answer came straight back.

“Evil.”

“Ah…”

The answer completely denied his faith.

The back of your head will tingle.

You won’t be able to accept it right now.

But what can I do?

this is reality

Puffing——

The paladin who had blocked me knelt on the floor.

It seemed that his legs had lost strength.

Anyway, I feel the hot gaze.

It was the eyes of the players.

It wasn’t close enough to hear the conversation.

‘Isn’t this a strange rumor spreading again?’

I heard that concern.

Now is the time to focus on the demon in front of you.

The paladin opened his mouth again to me who was determined.

“…I can’t believe it.”

yeah i can’t believe it

But reality is inherently nasty.

“Even if I was fooled by Freyza, I can’t agree with her being a demon. Even if the saintess did not exist, it is because we have the care of the goddess. The proof is that the tears of the miracle saint of the goddess are intact.”

His eyes were shaking as he spoke.

“To Muon in such a sacred place. The devil cannot step in.”

did you mean that

It doesn’t matter as long as you don’t believe in Freyza.

Neither I nor Grandfel are religious.

There is freedom of religion in this world.

It has nothing to do with whoever believes what.

First of all, my parents too.

One goes to temple and one goes to church.

However, the wrong word is a tired personality that can’t just go over.

I said calmly.

“It’s not like a miracle from a goddess.”

Yes, it served as an opportunity for the spread of the Goddess Church.

The press made a fuss about it as an elixir of rejuvenation.

tears of the saint.

Why does spring water have such an effect?

At least in my eyes, the reason was clearly visible.

“Tears of a saint is nothing special like its name. It’s just one of the effects of the non-herbal herb ‘Arya Moss’ that grows under the fountain. Because it is difficult to distinguish from ordinary moss in appearance, it is because proper research has not been done. No wonder you don’t recognize it.”

“…what?”

“However, Arya moss alone cannot produce such an effect. This is because the effects of Aryan moss are effective only at certain temperatures. It’s probably thanks to the minerals that have sunk in the pond that keep the water temperature at an appropriate level. Considering the surrounding environment, ‘Demune Moon Stone’ is likely.”

[The pentagram of pure knowledge].

The truth that I was able to notice thanks to him.

What supported my guess was the quest window.

─Find out the forces that participated in the crusade. (In progress)

Encounter the Saint of the Goddess Church. (Success)

Find out the true nature of the goddess church saint. (Success)

Hunt the devil disguised as a saint of the Goddess Church. (In progress)

Figure out the original sin of the Mage Tower. (Success)

The quest window was telling me.

In the Goddess Church, there were no saints or saints in the first place.

At my words, the Paladin completely collapsed.

“…aaaaaaaa!!”

Because I knew what the Arcana Continent looked like.

I could fathom his feelings.

Guilt or regret

like the mind.

I wanted to give you some kind of casual comfort.

How can such warm words be possible with such a tired personality?

All I could do was open my mouth.

“I don’t believe in God.”

…quite simply scratching the inside.

It’s not like fanning a house on fire.

You spit out the sound of scolding enemies with the Goddess Church.

My eyes widened, but my mouth spoke well.

“Because there is no hard evidence that it exists.”

“….”

“But there is also no convincing proof that God does not exist.”

“…?”

At my words, a question appeared on the paladin’s face.

His expression seemed to ask if the evidence wasn’t enough already.

Well, my mentality must have been properly broken.

I’ll just have to think like that.

Because Muon, their holy land, was completely played by the devil. Even if you don’t know about other gods, you probably thought that was enough proof that the goddess didn’t exist.

But that’s an overestimation.

“Because a trivial demon cannot serve as evidence.”

“…!”

It was the sound of acknowledging the existence of demons.

Grandfell’s pride was that it could not be tolerated.

That moment.

A roar that hits the eardrum.

Cuckoo coo coo coo!

Muon’s pure white nature collapsed.

Huge tentacles protruded from the cracks in the collapsed building.

A demon impersonating the saintess of Freyza had appeared.

Huge mass of tentacles.

He heard a languid voice that didn’t suit him.

Judging from the paladin’s reaction, it must have been Freyza’s voice.

“The rumors floating around are true. good. I have found a new deception. Yu-hee will stop at this point. It was enjoyable in its own way. Foolish denomination of goddesses mad with illusions.”

As you guessed.

Seeing that he’s fine even in consciousness, he’s not an ordinary devil.

Besides, it’s a rumor floating around.

It seemed that he knew something about my existence.

But are you sure you made a mistake?

In an enemy camp where I don’t know what kind of unexpected situation I might get into.

Do you think you came alone?

Yes, of course there was a magic tower behind me.

After the death of Senios.

The senior wizards of the Mage Tower whose anger toward the devil reached its peak.

That bug—

…but wait a minute.
