Raising the Saint of the Evil God in the Novel

43 – Chapter 43

“I’m glad you look well.”

Are you talking about dropping it now?

Perhaps such dissatisfaction was evident on my face, but one of the believers, who looked older, continued the story.

“hahahaha. Don’t make that face. There’s no way you, who are under his protection, could get hurt so easily.”

Yes. That’s what I thought.

“Even if he gets hurt, that is also his will. It must have been because the saintess lacked something.”

That thought was the driving force that made me suffer.

If you get hurt during training, it’s my fault.

If I die during education, it is because of my lack that He is angry.

What they do is always for his sake, and if they can’t stand it, it’s my fault.

He pushed me into all sorts of dangers.

If she managed to come out alive, she would be a saint after all, and that was the basics, she agreed.

If I were to get hurt, a harsher education was waiting for me, so I did my best to become what they say is a perfect saint.

…At least I did my best to look that way.

“…Aren’t you going to ask me why I’m here?”

“The fact that the saintess arrived here without any problems must mean that this was also her will. It’s not something I dare to ask why.”

“Is that so?”

It is very consistent.

How could this believer and that believer be the same as if they had been stripped away like this?

I’m tired of it, to the point where I can’t even hate it.

“…Then why did you drop me?”

“To say hello.”

“…Is that really all?”

“I would like to ask the opposite question. What else is there?”

After being away for a while, I couldn’t understand their way of thinking again.

I could understand enough when I left the church.

Is this a good sign or a bad sign?

…Now there is something more important than that.

“Don’t let them both die.”

“Um… Too bad I can’t follow that order.”

“Yes?”

Why don’t you follow me?

According to what they said, what I was able to say was because he allowed it, so they must follow it.

And again, did my thoughts show up on my face?

The believers prostrated themselves as a group and answered.

“It is impossible for us to arbitrarily manipulate artificial gods.”

“What is that…”

“They’ll probably get to the sick room in a few minutes at this rate. If they do, they will surely die.”

Then what should I do…

There is no way to tell the two of them to stop right now.

A while ago, I heard the sound of hurriedly running from above, so the two of them must have already moved far away.

Then the only thing left to do is…

Am I just blocking myself?

Thinking of that, I was about to leave the room by passing between the prostrate believers, when I heard voices from behind.

“”Let your will be done.””

Many voices merged as if they were one, and shouted the words.

When I heard that, one memory came to my mind.

It was the first time I was bestowed with authority.

‘Accomplish what you want. That’s what I want.’

It seems that their voices overlap with his voice at that time.

– Tak Tak Tak

The sound of my footsteps echoing through the hallway.

The structure of this facility is in the form of a shrine in the center, from which a path spreads out.

That’s why all hallways are one-way.

If you run only in one direction, you can easily reach the place where you are sick.

But this long hallway still hadn’t thought to end.

[Jongah. Do you want help?]

A voice that tickles my head.

Obviously, getting some help will make things a lot easier.

But I will refuse.

Everyone told me to do what I want, so I will do it with my own strength.

I kept my mouth shut and moved my legs as if I couldn’t answer because of my breath.

Something swaying from my waist keeps hitting my flesh, but it’s not the time to pay attention to such things.

To arrive as quickly as possible, even for a second.

******

The two started running immediately after Illyana fell.

There is also a method of falling down into that pit, but it was ruled out because there is a possibility that you will not be able to provide proper help when you go down.

When you open the door at the end of the hallway, another hallway appears.

A longer corridor than the one before.

This time the only light was a torch hanging over a door in the distance.

“Ethan!”

“No. 3, No. 7.”

Guided 3 times, burst 7 times.

With Ethan’s chanting, a red line went along the wall of the hallway, and then an explosion followed along the path of light.

And in the aftermath, the soil from the ceiling fell off a little, but fortunately it doesn’t seem to have any momentum to collapse.

In this way, Adela and Ethan quickly began to run through the hallway, which was turned upside down by the explosion.

Everything that could trigger the trap disappeared with the explosion, so there was nothing left to worry about in that hallway.

The two arrived at the end of the hallway.

When Adela kicked in the door that wouldn’t open properly due to a warped door frame, there was only an empty cavity with no one there.

“Tinder.”

With Adela’s words, a flame rose from her fingertips.

Adela throwing it down the joint.

Embers scattered from the central flame illuminated the walls of the dark cavity and scattered and disappeared.

But the flame didn’t disappear without meaning.

“Crazy… What is that?”

It has completed its mission of warning the two of them of danger.

Innumerable stone rings intertwined with each other to form it.

It’s like a chain.

But if there is a difference from a chain, one is that it is incomparably huge compared to a chain, and that it moves.

In addition, something black that was clearly invisible but felt led the two to guess that it was the artificial god.

-Kurrureuk

The huge boulder starts climbing up the common wall like a snake.

The speed was faster than expected, so without a chance to deal with something, the sick object pushed its head out of the cavity.

But it didn’t stop there, and in the end, the new thing pulled all the parts out of the cavity.

Then, as it was, it was firmly united based on a single point, and finally the divine object changed into a sphere-like form made of a huge chain.

A sacred object that continues to rotate with an unpleasant sound of stones interlocking.

It was obviously a god without eyes or anything, but at that moment Adela and Ethan felt that the god was watching them.

And as if that feeling wasn’t an illusion, the new object immediately began to act.

“Damage!”

-Kung Kooung

The chains begin to plunge toward the floor.

It must have been a sacred object made up of a single chain, but the number of flying chains was not one or two.

Adela and Ethan managed to dodge them all by a piece of paper with unbelievable agility, but it didn’t seem like it would last very long.

The chains that were continuously driven into the ground were enough to function as obstacles by themselves, slowing down the movement of the two.

“If I continue like this, I will die!”

At Edan’s words, Adela, who was avoiding her chains by spinning around the hollow, stopped and grabbed her spear.

“…Then help me.”

A chain that plunges into Adela’s seat.

But Adela wasn’t there.

It’s just fragments from the smashed floor.

And above the scattered floors, red hair was fluttering.

He jumped up using the spear as a pole.

“No. 1, No. 9.”

1 To grant, 9 to enhance.

They dwell in Adela’s spear as they are.

The chains that had been obstacles so far were now becoming Adela’s foothold and new options.

Chains and chains that are avoided by jumping over them become new footholds again.

Sometimes, when you want to jump to a place where there is nothing, the invisible foothold Edan created helps you advance.

Dodge, spill, advance.

How many times have you heard the sound of metal and stone rubbing together?

At last Adela stood in her chains in front of her god.

“No big deal.”

A spear that pierces through the chains forming a sphere with the horse.

But since it’s like stabbing into the empty air, of course she can’t do any damage.

But Adela jumped from her chains as if she had already won, with a confident smile on her face.

And her mouth twitched and spat out words with meaning.

“Tinder.”

Her spark rises from her fingertips, which Adela held above her until her final moments, defying her gravity.

Like a salmon swimming against a river to produce offspring at the end of its life.

And the flame gave birth to offspring as if to imitate the salmon until the end.

Small and small sparks.

It touches the handle of the spear, its tip.

Be quiet without making any noise.

However, the result of that quiet act was loud.

The spear that is embracing the spark glows red, resembling a spark.

Handle, spear shaft, spear blade.

In that order, the spears that were burning red eventually.

-Quaang!

I shot the spear blade.

The spearhead, which was securely fastened to the chains, was strengthened by Edan’s magic, and withstood the explosion, sending all of its strength to the spearhead.

Like a backflow of flames.

Using the fire as a stepping stone, the spear blade breaks chains and advances.

The spear blade breaks the chains, and the explosion blows them away.

When a red flower blooms in the heart of chains like that,

Adela said, turning around behind her.

“End.”

-Quaguaguaguagwang!

The site of a chain where explosions meet explosions and grow in size.

After the explosion, all that was left was the fragments of stones that formed the chain.

“Whew… How was it? Ethan. Were you cool?”

“It was an operation that could not have been carried out without me.”

As the two tasted the sweetness of victory, a familiar voice rang from the bottom of the joint.

“It is not over!”

And then, in the void that was the center of the chain orb, red eyes appeared.
