Chapter 138 - My Guess Is Correct
It was a detour. πreπ¦ππ²π£π―π°Ξ½β―π.cπΌο½
I turned around to face Yoro-san, and as expected the Cardinal reacted to that.
γOya? As expected, is there something that came into your mind? Is it related to that big man in the suit of armor over there?γ
γThat rude thunderstorm that suddenly dropped lightning on us? Well, there is no doubt that I was the one who blew it away though.γ
γYoro-san. Please donβt confess such a thing so smoothly, I donβt even have time to stop you.γ
γI donβt care about that small thunderstorm that I scattered. It wouldnβt even compare to something that a god did even at best.γ
The god of thunder, the kin of the Main GodβIt is most definitely that thunderstorm that Yoro-san accidentally blew away the day before we entered the country.
The Cardinal laughed out loud in front of Yoro-san, who just confessed himself.
γHahaha! As expected, in front of someone who emits the majesty of god like me, villains like you people canβt hide away, huh?γ
γThere is no need for me to hide since I feel like I did nothing wrong.γ
γArenβt βI feel like i am not guiltyβ and βI am not guiltyβ different?γ
And then, Yoro-san put his hand on the Cardinalβs shoulder and started pressuring him.
γI have questions for you too. Why does this country worship a thundercloud? You said that it was βThe god of thunder, the kin of the Main Godβ. Then, that means that the god of thunder and the Main God are not the same god, do you understand that? Why didnβt you worship the Main God? I will be troubled if the faith in that guy is diminished and he became weaker.γ
According to Yoro-san, the god in this placeβthe god that possessed that girl who is the candidate for the Shrine Maiden was not the thunder god. However, the sculptures on the capitalβs cathedral and the square were all in the shape of lightning.
Even RΔko misunderstood that the god in this place=the god of thunder.
γFufu, you donβt know anythingβ¦ The true god is too awe-inspiring. An existence that is too easy to worship. The general public here worships the main godβs kin, the thunder god and the guardian beasts, like what I didβThatβs right! Like what I did! Only geniuses that have been selected! Only they are forgiven to worship the true god!γ
γThen call your god here with prayers. I want to challenge him to a duel. γ
γChallenging the god to a duelβ¦? Hahaha! What an interesting joke, isnβt it? By the way, are you trying to commit suicide? Then you should probably consult the church. Letβs reach out to them for help.γ
I was looking at the Cardinal with admiration. I also want this kind of mental strength.
Yoro-san was listening to him silently, but he suddenly frowned his mouth in displeasure. But, it doesnβt seem that the Cardinalβs attitude is the concern.
γI donβt understand. Faith is the source of magical power for gods. And you guys are not praying to him? That is like taunting the god himself.γ
γIs that so? But not worshipping the Main God itself is a decree that the Shrine Maiden of the previous generation received directly from the Main god himself, you know? βEach worshiper and each of their prayers are noisy, you idiot. Pray to my subordinates instead.β The god himself said that.γ
γOh, so not just when talking to Yoro-san, but he always has that kind of tone, huh. That sort of Kami-sama.γ
With that kind of tone, there is probably no impression of fear and such. Rather, it made the atmosphere too light.
However, he still is the god that defeated Yoro-san. His power alone is awe-inspiring.
And then, the Cardinal made a gesture with both of his palms.
γArmor-kun over there. There is no doubt that you harmed Raijin, an important subordinate of the Main God, right?γ
γI scattered it with one hit of my right hand.γ
γI beg you. Iβm begging you Yoro-san. Please stay silent and let me talk. RΔko too, donβt say anything until I allow it, okay.γ
γPlease do not worry. Have I ever done something without your permission?γ
γThatβs right. You are really excellent.γ
I had both RΔko and Yoro-san sit down, and I positioned myself in front of the Cardinal and faced him alone.
γFufu. What a strange combination. There are times where humans managed to tame demons and use them as familiars, but donβt tell me a lizard managed to tame demons. Moreover, the two of them are really powerful too.γ
γYoro-san, isnβt RΔko a human?γ
γDontβ be stupid. She transcends the magical powers of humans no matter how you look at her. What is she if she is not a demon?γ
Thatβs right, huh. The magical power that resides inside of RΔko is the fear of the βEvil Dragon RΔvendia.β In a sense, RΔko is the Evil Dragon herself. So she is probably counted as a demon.
γI have investigated you people already. Arenβt you the lizard that was allowed to enter the country yesterday? There is information that your scales can be a valuable medicine butβ¦ its fake isnβt it. Did you make those demons to do a trick?γ
γIβm very sorry. I canβt deny anything about that.γ
My scales can only be a substitute for a kinda bad dashi soup stock. That valuable medicine thing is just completely a RΔko scam.
γWell, I donβt care much about that. What I want to hear is your purpose. Defeating the god of thunder and kidnapping a Shrine Maiden candidateβ I can only see this as a means to destroy this country, do you have any excuses?γ
γE, eetooβ¦γ
I turned around and faced Yoro-san. I can make an excuse for the kidnapping, but there is nothing I can say about defeating the thunder god.
Then, there is no choice but to hide the very bad part and honestly admit the rest to some extent.
γActually, Yoro-san over there is an old acquaintance of the god here. So, he just came here to warm up his old friendship. But when we came and saw a different god, he went and said βA fake, huh!β or so I heard when he defeated it. There is no intention to be hostile with this country.γ
However, my claim was dismissed with laughter.
γAn old acquaintance of the Main God? Along with the time when the thunder god didnβt exist yet? Hahahaha, you idiots should have thought more carefully. There is no such case with the demons. Except for that demon that is the Former Demon King that is!γ
Yeah. Thatβs the Demon King.
Yoro-san laughed loudly, as if in tune with the voice of my heart.
