The Empire and the Temple of God were fully in the midst of [The Test of Faith].
Other forces began to intervene one by one as well.
“Ohhh, everyone…Now is not the time for fighting.”
The Elf Ranger Captain from the Fairy Forest sighed.
“Shouldn’t we investigate thoroughly whether or not the witch is really under that young man’s control? No matter how foolish you all are, there’s a time and place for everything.”
Was he trying to stop the fight, or fan the sparks of the fight?
Naturally, it didn’t help whatsoever.
“That’s right if I had to add a comment to what you just said, isn’t the Temple of God being self-contradictory? The Founding Emperor of Aegim’s Holy Protection Sword was bestowed to him by the Goddess of Protection that you all worship at the Temple of God. To doubt the authority of the sword is to doubt the authority of the goddess, isn’t it? That’s why humans who live short lives are so foolish…”
“What?! The elves saw us in that kind of light?!”
“This is why these big-earned ones are unreliable sons of bitches!”
They even got in the way.
“What on earth are the Temple of God and the Empire doing?! Arguing in front of us who came to uphold our honourable covenant!”
The Dragoon Unit Captain that came from the volcano shouted.
“Settle it with a duel just like the warriors you are! What else are you going to use your weapons for?”
Basically, they were a unicellular unit.
In Hunter terms… Yes, they were just like the Venomous Snake from Chen Mu-mun.
“Our Freedom City Union believes both the Holy Protection Sword and the Temple of God are right. But there must be someone more right. If you have any suggestions, I’ll listen with an open mind.”
“That’s why farming is for suckers… Oh, so when can we plunder that town? You said we could rob it right? So, since they came to see us.”
“Ev-, everyone. Guys… there’s a witch’s den right in front of us….”
Wearing an armed top, she openly revealed her [Personal Status], she was a nomadic female chief who was grumbling while pulling along the horses.
It was the closest place to the vengeful ghost’s paradise, so only the lords of the minor countries, that initially tried to desperately spark the destruction of the paradise, were in a state of panic.
In other words, it was a very dangerous situation.
-Keuuhoooo!
On the other hand, the Sword Emperor and I became that much more relaxed.
Bae Hu-ryeong folded his arms and shook his head.
-I understand why the vengeful ghost put up a fight against the Hunters. There was an exhilarating feeling when driving a wedge in, causing internal confusion!
‘I admit it.’
Honestly, it was so much fun.
However, of course, they were not the only ones full of trollers.
“Ha. Guys, get out of my way!”
Just like us Hunters had a person that was so-called the ‘Civil Militia Guild Master’. A mediator. There were, of course, those who came forward to resolve the situation before the whole army headed toward chaos and destruction.
A lizardman magician from the Mermaid Falls stepped forward.
“In the eyes of this young one, the problem was simple after all.”
The lizardman magician pointed at me with his webbed fingers.
“Whether the young man really is the emissary of the Founding Emperor, or if that woman was really the witch. Whether or not the emissary really defeated the witch and brought her under his reign. It’ll all be solved as long as we can confirm this.”
The Chief Holy Knight of the Temple of God, who became exhausted while arguing with the General of the Empire, frowned.
“So how do you confirm that?”
“Don’t worry. Of course, I have a way.”
The lizardman magician placed her webbed hands on her chest.
In her grasp was a blue bead that seemed to hold the condensed deep sea.
“This is the Soul Jewel that the Queen of Mermaids gave me.”
The lizardman magician was very serious. As if she was going to show us an extremely precious treasure from now on, and she sounded as if this was the fortune of our lifetimes to be able to see such a treasure with our own eyes.
“If you drip a drop of blood here, you can determine whether the owner of the blood has a [Good-Natured Soul], or a [Evil-Natured Soul]. If you have a good-natured soul, the jewel will emit white light, and if you have an evil-natured soul, a black light will emerge.”
Hmmmmm.
So it’s like the Crusader’s [Lie Detector] and the Sword Saint’s [Detective’s Insight].
-Uhuh. I think so. The demifolks are very good at making weird gizmos like that.
Bae Hu-ryeong and I remained unfazed. The Queen of Mermaids’ precious jewel or whatever, it sounded grand, but… It was nothing new for us.
Unaware of our thoughts, the lizardman magician was confident.
“Now! If that woman is truly the Witch of the Frontier, and if you are truly the emissary of the Founding Emperor, accept the test of the jewel!”
The lizardman magician lifted the jewel.
“The evil deeds you have done. The good deeds you have accumulated. This jewel will prove everything!”
