chapter 18
Poison Saint (1)
Elin wasn’t just walking.
that was certain
As evidence of that, the Crisis Sensing skill was sending a tingling signal that seemed like the whole body would be paralyzed.
The intent to kill Elina was not directed at me.
However, even though the murderous intent is not directed at me, the danger perception skill is activated.
‘Does that mean something is happening around Elin that I can get swept up in?’
I nervously put one foot back and quickly observed the situation.
What’s going on.
very meticulously.
‘That’s it!’
After checking the surroundings for a while, I saw the danger that Elin was scattering around.
It was a dark night, so it was hard to see for a moment, but the color around Elin was subtly changed.
‘Divine Field’
The users who use the divine power are endowing the power of the gods to a certain range around them.
Originally, it was an authority that only high-ranking priests could use, but Elin was already a saint of the evil god Yuan.
It’s even worse that you can’t use it.
Divine fields basically have different properties for each god.
In the case of the most representative god, Neftam, it was to increase the physical abilities of people inside the Divine Field and inspire courage.
‘And Yuan…’
Yuan is the god of poison.
The divine field created by the saintess poisons those inside.
According to the setting, the poison was strong enough to transform not only living things, but also objects.
‘If I go in, I will die.’
You might think so.
Originally, Elin, who occupied the status of Elina in the original work, had never used the Divine Field.
When the main character asks why he doesn’t use it, Elin of the original story says that he hasn’t been recognized by God yet.
Of course it is false.
Because she is a saint of Yuan, she did not use the Divine Field.
And now, he was using that power.
To kill Elina, who should have died normally.
There was no longer a piece of rationality in Elin’s silver eyes, who were walking without hesitation.
‘Why are you trying to kill Elina like that?’
While I was trying to find an answer to that question, I also thought about how to destroy the Divine Field.
The Divine Field uses divine power.
Of course, the empty attribute magic that nullifies magic was also ineffective.
In addition, since the Divine Field is protected by the divine power of God, improvised magic cannot affect its interior.
It required high-level magic of the same level as Divine Field.
‘But with such power, why were you captured by slave traders?’
It seems there is something unexplained.
In that brief moment of contemplation, Elin was already quite close.
“Erin, wait a minute. Elina is already inside.”
I opened my mouth thinking of stopping Elin for now.
However, Elin’s steps were unstoppable.
It is not intended to be heard in the first place.
“What’s going on?”

Just then, Elina opened the door and stuck her head out.
Not good timing either.
“L…”
“Oh, Elin-nim!”
Before I could answer, Elina spotted Elin walking by and smiled broadly.
I immediately grabbed Elina’s hand as she tried to approach her.
“no.”
Elina’s eyes widened as if she was embarrassed by my words.
“Ah…Why, why are you like that, Your Highness Confucius?! Wow!”
I tugged at Elina’s hand and slowly stepped back.
When I glanced at Elin, I saw Elina’s eyes shaking uneasy at this sudden situation.
Still can’t help it.
‘I will take responsibility.’
I had decided
Responsibility for giving Elina a reason for fear.
A responsibility that changed her life forever.
And I will definitely protect her.
‘mental shock’
I remembered one of the most representative ways to destroy the Divine Field.
Like magic, divine magic and divine fields are greatly influenced by the mind.
The images created to use magic are nothing more than strong belief in and prayer to God in divine magic and the Divine Field.
And for that, you need to focus your mind.
So, reveal the shocking truth. Distract your mind and the Divine Field will be temporarily destroyed.
At that time, all you have to do is subdue Elin.
“Listen. Elin.”
I continued to keep my distance from Elin and opened my mouth.
But.
Holy sh*t.
Elin ran towards me without giving me time to speak.
“Run at once!”
“Yeah?!”
I took the confused Elina and sprinted through the hallways of our house at night.
.
.
.
Elin couldn’t see well.
No matter how many times I rubbed my eyes, my vision was still blurry.
It was as if the moonlight had distorted everything.
The walls, the windows, even the moonlight coming in from outside were all twisted and distorted.
However, even in such a distortion, the two people who were moving away from him were clearly visible.
‘Kill.’
That whisper dominated Elin now.
Elin did not reject the whisper.
In the first place, that feeling was nothing more than an amplification of the emotions Elin had from the beginning.
One of them was a girl.
A girl who looked exactly like Elin as if she were facing herself through a mirror.
The girl’s name was Elina. Her name is Elin.
similar faces. similar names. same age.
A lot of things are similar to you, and a lot of things are different girls.
Elin hated her and couldn’t stand it.
Is it because of God? Or is it just your feelings?
Elin didn’t know.
And there was a boy holding the girl’s hand and running.
Appearing suddenly in that alleyway, the boy interrupted his attempt to obey the god’s words.
Neither the reason nor his identity were known.
But the boy treated himself as if he knew a lot.
His words were blunt, but he was thinking more seriously about others than anyone else.
Even when he viciously slashed out the bread he took from the lunch box Nias gave him, he was clearly acting for others.
Elin hadn’t seen anyone like that in a long time.
The people who let him into the jar only had cold, scary eyes.
Elin thought he might get better.
But now the boy was running away with the girl he hated.
‘why?’
Elin thought to find an answer.
And soon, he came up with an answer.
That boy was also better than Elina.
like those people
.
.
.
I grabbed Elina and ran down the hallway.
Even though she used wind magic to lighten her body and increase her speed, the distance with Elin did not widen.
No matter what kind of blessing she received, Elin’s running speed wasn’t too slow.
Fortunately, we are a little faster.
That’s why I was able to run away safely because I was a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of
However.
‘Is it possible to change the shape of the Divine Field?!’
The Divine Field, which seemed to spread out in a circular shape, suddenly changed into a long shape in one direction and was pursuing it.
It was as if a poisonous snake was crawling after it.
‘damn…’
At this rate, after a while, I will be sucked into the depths of the Divine Field.
Then life was like flying away.
“Why, why are you avoiding Elin?!”
While Elina ran with me for now, she exclaimed in a puzzled way.
It’s amazing that he is able to get along even in such a sudden situation.
‘Is it a saint?’
Looking at Elina, I thought in admiration, then exclaimed as if to make an excuse.
“I want to exercise! no no. I’m playing tag with Elin!”
Elina was even more flustered and widened her eyes.
“Why are you doing that with me?! Why is Elin-sama hanging out?!”
okay. The reason, I want to tell you.
Yuan’s Divine Field is right behind us.
However, considering what would happen after the announcement, I couldn’t open my mouth hastily.
Elin is the saintess of Yuan, the evil god.
And Elina was a candidate for a saint who believed in Neftam, the main god and good god.
Elina was still cautious because she didn’t know how to react after learning Ellin’s identity.
at that time.
Tring!
[Due to sickness, health is quickly depleted.]
A system notification popped up.
It was a moment when I was already panting.
With the system window open, my weakness is better proved.
“haha…”
Elina didn’t seem to be out of breath yet.
If you run like this and fall down, dying is shameful.
“Elina. I will hug you.”
“yes? Wow!”
I hugged Elina into the princess’ arms and opened the castle window with magic.
Then he jumped out the window and jumped out.
The cold wind of dawn blew through her hair and clothes.
Elina’s long silver hair swayed in the wind like a silver wave.
Beyond that, Elina could be seen, her face flushed red.
“sky! No, high! Get off!”
Elina hurriedly grabbed the hem of my clothes and struggled.
It seems that he got scared when he floated up in the sky.
His face turned pale and his whole body was shaking.
“calm down.”
In order not to let go of the struggling Elina, I said as I held her tightly.
To reassure me, I brought my face closer to Elina and whispered softly as if to comfort her.
“it’s okay.”
Elina, who had been moving wildly, slowly calmed down.
I grabbed Elina’s hand, who was out of breath, and put it on my shoulder.
At a distance where they could feel each other’s breath, Elina could feel the heat rising.
“Get your way. You can wrap your neck around it.”
“Yes Yes. Okay.”
Elina stared blankly at my face as if possessed and nodded obediently.
Elina’s arms hugged my neck tightly.
I looked down as I held Elina tighter so that she could feel at ease.
“By the way. The event is too sudden. Well, we just met for the first time… Plus, I’m a paladin candidate. I understand your heart, but you have to take your steps slowly!”
Elina said sincerely.
Well, that’s the theory. That’s right.
But what are you thinking?
It is a fatal misunderstanding.
“It’s not like that…”
The wind blew again, and my hair and Elina’s hair fluttered at the same time.
And I found Elin looking up at us with her head poking out through the window I had opened earlier.
Chills ran down my spine.
Elin’s silver eyes bathed in moonlight were stained with crooked madness.
With murderous intent, hatred, and hatred.
“Ellin-nim…? Why are those eyes…?”
The voice of Elina, who followed my gaze and found Elin, also raised doubts.
Everyone could tell that Elin’s expression was strange, if he calmly looked at it.
I raised a little more altitude and increased the distance.
“More, higher!”
“Be patient. not a coward You’ll be the paladin of Neftam. Or, are you scared and can’t stand it?”
At my provocation, Elina glared at me slightly, then nodded.
“Is this a test of courage? I can tolerate this much.”
I smiled and raised my altitude.
Unless Elin can fly, the Divine Field will not reach this far.
But that was a very foolish idea.
“…you…hate it.”
Elin put words into his mouth that he did not know who he was talking to.
Perhaps feeling that hatred, Elina held her breath and hugged me tighter.
Elin made the worst choice.
Returning the Divine Field, which had been chasing us, back to its original form, and following the orders of hatred and madness, we started doing what we shouldn’t have done.
“If you don’t come down, this castle will be swallowed up.”
With Elin’s words, the Divine Fields slowly spread along the walls of the castle, discoloring them.
