Chapter 105: Religious Conflict
Inside the extravagant church of the Light G.o.d Faith in Valkyratos, the angry voice of a minister resounded.
「What do you mean?!」
「M-my apologies!」
The Light G.o.d Chruch in Valkyra Kingdom"s capital was in turmoil. Of course they would. One of the heroes they summoned after acc.u.mulating magic power for a long time and even sacrificing how many humans had vanished.
They knew that she went out with her maid. The number of people monitoring Akane to strangle the cute beastkin attendant wearing a slave collar a.s.signed to her should the girls stray too far from a church priest was around 10. The entire surveillance personnel lost contact and did not return. The church had fallen into a panic.
These surveillance personnel were dealt with by Kaede in secret. They disappeared from the royal capital, not knowing who killed them.
「Was this the doing of the Genesis Faith?!」
「Calm yourself!」
A young priest showed his bare animosity of the Genesis Faith to the priest/minister. This was remonstrated by the priest/minister*.
「Oi oi, why is everyone all panicked?」
Akira and Yamato came upon seeing the church staff moving around in a fl.u.s.ter.
「Ooh, Akirdono and Yamato-dono, the whereabouts of Akane-dono is unknown. Might you know where she could be?」
「Wha! That b.i.t.c.h Akane ran away?!」
「Tch, I was planning on making her my woman someday……… but she ran away.」
Yamato and Akira concluded that Akane ran away.
Akira was aiming for Akane. Akane measures up to the standard of this world where many beautiful ladies and pretty girls, When they went to the same high school, they were a little bit closer, but since the summoning, they"ve been in opposition many times. The problems were practically all from Akira and Yamato"s side, but they themselves do not realize this.
「Yeah, cuz she"s got a nice bod.」
「Totally, I wanted to have a taste.」
「We will do a search in Valkyra Kingdom"s capital, therefore, hero-samas, please return to Sydnia momentarily.」
「What about you gonna do about the trip to Lomaria?」
「Please return momentarily since we will reexamine matters, including the guards, and I expect it to be after that.」
「Dammit, I wanted to get that a.s.shole"s elf slave.」
「The rabbit woman was s.e.xy too.」
Akira and Yamato seem to have forgotten that they were dealt with easily and Akira"s sword being cut. Originally, they should have been a bit more decent. Unlike Akane, why did the personalities of the two change so much? That is related to the level of Light Attribute Magic. Having been suspicious of Sydnia ever since they were summoned, Akane used purifying magic even on her daily meals and water. Akira also has the Light Attribute Magic skill, but he preferred training with the sword and did not raise the skill level of his Light Attribute Magic. And even if he could use purifying magic, he probably wouldn"t use it on his food and drinks.
Yes, Sydnia dilutes a substance close to narcotic drugs and mixes it into the heroes" meals. Furthermore, with thought guidance, they made the heroes into puppets that would accept instructions from the Light G.o.d Faith unconditionally.
The miscalculation of the Light G.o.d Church was that, because Akane did not show rebellious att.i.tude in her everyday behavior and conduct, they did not doubt that she was under their control like Akira and Yamato.
「For now, we must return to the imperial capital with the heroes and report to the Pope. Everything else comes after that.」
The minister a.s.signed personnel to search for Akane and hurried their preparation to return to the imperial capital.
