131 – Afterword (4)

* * * *

After chasing all over the place alone, those who followed Finn became a total of around 1,000 knights and wizards.

“…If only Master had been here.”

Finn, who pursed his lips in resentment, struck down a poor tree.

bang. With a heavy sound, the shockwave caused the trees where Finn’s fist was swung to fall in a fan shape.

Of course, a thousand people is a lot.

If this unit were going to rescue ordinary nobles, not saints.

But there was a reason it couldn’t.

“It can’t be helped, Captain. Not only the Holy Kingdom, but even Your Majesty are busy stopping the sect’s backstabbing… The Holy Kingdom must have sent troops. Even if we don’t find the saintess, we might find it over there. Wouldn’t it be?”

One of Finn’s men followed Finn and rebuked him.

“That’s right… these bastards of the goddamn church.”

Finn trembled with rage.

Everything went according to Berry’s plan, but Finn never noticed it.

First of all, Berry spread false rumors around the empire and made it impossible for people to enter the area adjacent to the castle.

An attack by a group whose name is unknown.

The possibility of Finn rushing to the castle in an imminent emergency situation was extremely slim, but it was prepared for the case.

Even if the empire under their rule could create an emergency wartime situation at will, it was difficult to build a kingdom.

The situation in the Holy Land is too peaceful to be said to have been attacked by a church that covets the virginity of saints.

If Finn witnessed it, everything would be exposed.

… .

… .

“…Isn’t it a sloppy strategy that will all be exposed if the opponent reacts a little calmly?”

“The woman he loves has been kidnapped. And that’s in danger of losing his virginity. How many men can calmly deal with it?”

“…”

As Selina kept her mouth shut and shook her head, Ian helped Berry from the side.

“At least, I don’t think Selina and I wouldn’t weigh you back and forth if you were in danger. Maybe I would have run alone.”

“Ian…”

Selina looked at Ian with teary eyes as if thrilled.

Then, unable to hold back the boiling emotions, he hugged Ian.

Hororok.

Berry, who looked at the scene with dry eyes, continued to explain while drinking tea.

“Lily and Imeris must have gone and delivered a personal letter to the pope of the Holy Land.

“You used the pretext of being a party member?”

Berry shrugged at Selina, who sneered at Ian’s arms and said, “As expected, you look good for a villain.”

“Of course, as you said, you might have doubts at the time you received the blood letter that should have been in the Holy Kingdom.”

“I would have done that.”

“Because that’s possible, it means she’s a wicked woman. Any decent woman wouldn’t know, but can Pin stay sane after reading a blood letter promising to defile a saint, the symbol of chastity?”

“He might be.”

There is no time to rush to the Holy Land and confirm the truth of the rumor.

Since the only reliable information network had disappeared on urgent business, Finn must have felt that this incident must be unusual.

“He’ll probably come here with a thousand knights at his disposal.”

“The number of people in the mission to rescue the saintess is known, but only 1,000 people… It’s ridiculous.”

“When information is blocked, humans become powerless.”

Berry recalled a historical event that was even made into a movie in Korea.

Even in the same country, when information as well as physical roads were blocked, did not the people know anything like a neighboring country in a distant country?

Since even the group was the same shape, Finn, an individual, would not have the skills to overcome it.

“That’s right. That’s why I’m thinking of attacking a group that’s enough to kidnap a saintess in the middle of the Holy Land with just a thousand people.”

“It’s not that reckless, considering Finn’s heyday.”

“Right now, it’s just a chatterbox. It’s already over at the point where I and I are on equal footing. Peace would have been no different from rat poison to him.”

“That’s why I’m trying to make love come true and awaken you.”

“…Who said it was good?”

When Selina clicked her tongue and turned her head away, Ian, who had been silently watching the scene, began to break out in a cold sweat.

“You two…you look very close, don’t you?”

“”ah.””

I should have talked a little more carefully.

By the time I thought about such regrets, it was already too late.

Ian’s hand, holding the teacup in his hand, trembled, and even his pupil lost his way and began to wander.

“That, come to think of it, it was a bit strange… I haven’t been in touch for a while, so why did I contact you through Selina… Berry, your friend is me.”

“Oh, um…”

Since Ian couldn’t confide in him about the circumstances of his return, contacting him through Selina was poisonous.

If I were to reveal everything, I would have to tell the truth that even the pitiful background of Selina was a fabrication.

“The two of us share a lot of secrets that only I don’t know… Selina can’t refuse Berry’s request for some reason…”

Ian’s voice started to cry.

“No, Ian, listen to the story…”

“Ah, no, I don’t want to hear… I’m sorry. I won’t dig into it any further…”

Ian doesn’t even want to hear an explanation and even blocks his ears.

Berry and Selina, who were watching the scene, looked at each other in bewilderment.

“…Yeah, of course.”

She covered her mouth with her hands and shed tears.

Almost like a heroine given the most pitiful role in a love affair, Berry came up with the easiest solution.

No, it’s indolence that I don’t even bother to explain.

And it was possible because he didn’t even feel guilty about Selina.

“Evangeline.”

“Uh, yes…? Dad?”

Evangeline, who was quietly watching, covered her vision with the moon night.

“Selina, put up your barrier. Or at least bite your lip.”

“Suddenly something… oh really. Damn you bastard.”

He glared at Selina.

Selina hurriedly spread her magic barrier in the direction of Berry.

It was because he had seen Berry swing his fist at him.

bang!!

Selina was pushed back a distance of several meters with a rupture.

“Three, Selina!!”

Leaving behind Ian’s urgent voice, Berry clenched his fist again and spoke to Ian.

“If you don’t believe me, I can do it one more time, but how about it?”

“…”

“Don’t make someone else’s husband an adulterer. If in doubt, tell me now.”

“…Ah, okay, stop it, Berry. I’m sorry I doubted you on your own…But Selina is a girl, so don’t throw your fists…”

“Women are a piece of shit, you idiot who is three years older than you. Didn’t he lose his mind because he was crazy about love and looked after you?”

“…”

This incident became an opportunity for Ian to correct his perception of Berry once again.

He has a radical side, but he is capable, cool, and a good friend.

As a radical friend who strangely has a corner where there is no blood or tears.

However, to argue that Selina didn’t have to hit her, she couldn’t say anything because Selina herself just clicked her tongue and sat down casually.

‘There must be something between the two that I don’t know… .’

Ian realized that, but on the other hand, was relieved that the relationship was not obviously affectionate.

* * * *

Time has passed and the moonlight has deepened in the late night.

“How on earth can a forest be like this!”

Finn’s shouts, now all alone, echoed in the quiet forest.

All of this was nature’s plan at Evangeline’s request.

It was because the moment Finn set foot in the southern forest of the Empire, there was a request to continue paving the way so that only Finn could come towards the place where they were.

Because of that, Finn was separated from the knights he brought with him.

I wasted my stamina because I was lured from the southern forest to the place where the berries were.

An appropriate arrangement to save the heroine.

Even this ‘originally, he’s the one who shows off his power at the moment of crisis, so I have to roll it a bit.’ It was Berry’s trick that shook his hand.

trudge.

Berry continued walking without hesitation even though he was alone.

Grace was too worried to hesitate here.

[I will defile the saintess’ virginity and offer it as a sacrifice to the gods.]

“Please…I hope it’s not too late.”

A face covered in scars from poisonous thorn bushes.

Rough breaths feebly fill the cold night air.

I have no intention of discussing chastity now.

Even after Grace’s body was defiled, he had no intention of treating her insignificantly.

Everything is my own responsibility for not being able to keep the distance I love, discussing qualifications, and protecting the one I love in time.

“Please…don’t be late.”

Are you talking to yourself?

Or is he talking to the fate that gave him the ordeal?

I couldn’t tell which one, but one thing was certain.

As Berry said, Finn was a human form who exerted more power as the situation became more urgent.

The night deepened, and the full moon illuminated the pins brightly.

How much time has passed since you were alone.

Heh heh… .

A faint laugh could be heard from afar.

A malevolent look makes Finn’s hair stand on end, and the male laughter filled with dirty desire fills the air.

“…Wow…sir.”

“Saintess!!!”

Even though it was a really fleeting moment, Finn’s pace quickened as he identified the identity of the voice.

still alive

maybe it can be saved

No, we have to save it.

Finn’s urgent steps finally reached the end of the thornbush forest.

Hwaaak.

An overwhelming combination of black and demon was engraved in the eyes of Finn, who had burrowed into the enemy camp alone.

‘Devil.’

How many of them are there?

It’s a number that looks like hundreds to thousands even if you estimate it.

Nevertheless, Finn was determined and grabbed Solaris.

If you think about it from Finn’s point of view, it was a reckless challenge.

The opponent is a church that made even the teacher, who had been like heaven, vacate his seat due to an unexpected situation, and kidnapped a saint from the Holy Land full of the grace of the goddess.

Moreover, the identity of the church was a group of demons.

There was no way I could deal with it.

I had to do it nonetheless.

“Do, please come… Fin-sama…”

Because Grace, who was in her underwear and her body was swollen and covered with scars, frantically searched for the pin.

Covered in an unknown sticky liquid, he couldn’t even open his eyes properly.

“Khehehehe…”

A demon standing next to Grace laughed meanly and licked Grace’s cheek.

“Ughhh…”

Finn’s new model disappeared along with Grace’s tearful moans.

Soon, what came into their sight was a huge sun high in the sky.

* * * *

a few hours ago.

“What?”

“So, wouldn’t Finn do his best only if Grace was in some danger? Change Grace so that only Finn can see you properly.”

“Wasn’t that your special skill at the moon night? If you designate a target with colorless magic, your mana consumption is not the only one.”

“To do that, I have to imagine Grace’s face and make it, but that’s difficult. I’m not asking you, the same woman.”

In addition, Berry, who believed that Selina, who was originally a villainess, would surely clean up the work, asked her again.

In response to Berry’s threat to make sure she did it, Selina reluctantly changed Grace’s appearance just in time for Finn to appear.

Wearing the underwear of a vulgar prostitute, she created the appearance that she had already been tossed and tossed.

She engraved the blush of a female with lust on her face, and created emptiness with despair in her eyes.

‘At this rate, it will look as if the demons have been tossed around for a month.’

Of course, the real Grace watched Finn’s arrival very dry.

Even though he was brainwashed.

Even Berry would have stopped it had he been able to see the vision of Grace created by Selina.

Selina got drunk on a villain role after a long time without even knowing it and crossed the line.

“I’ll burn you guys…not even a bone fragment left behind.”

But it’s already too late.

Berry’s eyes deepened as he rebuked Selina.

‘What the hell did I show that kid.’
