How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job

Chapter 237. Spirit Meeting (3)

However, Pena, whom I summoned, has really complex eyes.

For some reason, I seem to hear thoughts echoing through her head.

‘What am I doing now?' Are you thinking about it?

As a person who knows the truth about this spirit king summoning show, he is struggling alone in a swamp of self-doubt.

The reason I was able to summon him was because of the gift I gave him... that free pass.

In the first place, it was not his own ability, but he was called with the free pass he had previously received, so his feelings would be a little complicated.

This is what she said when she first heard about this plan in the first place.

‘Isn't that a scam?'

yes it's a scam

At best, it's a fraud at the point where the spirit lord pretends to summon the spirit king, who only contracts with low-level spirits.

Does not matter.

Anyway, the purpose is to imprint the perception of Pena.

It would be just a joke if you only summoned lower spirits.

If you put the perception that you can deal with this level of power, you can't treat it carelessly.

If you don't do it right, you're afraid that the spirit king's fists will fall on your head.

Ignoring the tension completely, I spoke to the Spirit King.

high! Mr. Red Hogu!

“It is an honor to meet you. You are the fire spirit king.”

I decided to keep the desire to lightly wave my hand and shout in my heart, and I politely pretended to be polite.

[...]

The fire spirit king doesn't say anything even though he looks disapproving.

In fact, it's because I secretly called him in advance and educated him... no, before he started working.

I had already given him the script.

He kindly comforted me, telling me to prepare myself later if I didn't do as he was told.

[What are you calling for? Are there enemies here that need to be annihilated with this fire? Or is there an obstacle that needs this flame?]

As he speaks while moving the large body, a faint sound of suppressing a scream comes from the surroundings.

“Ah… that’s not it. No… no.”

Pena is also cold, so she can't speak properly.

Are you surprised that it looks more dangerous than you thought?

I couldn't help but intervene.

“That's not it. I just borrowed her power to call you here because I wanted to ask you something about the spirit.”

[What is it?]

“There is an opinion among some human doctrines that the spirits are evil.”

The priests flinch when I speak.

[It's foolish.]

The fire spirit king dismissed my question in a tone that didn't show any emotion.

[We are nothing but the will that dwells in the mana that exists in this nature. The fact that we are evil is the same as the fact that this land you breathe is evil.]

Since it is a spirit, it will not have the same emotions as humans.

For some reason, he seemed a little annoyed.

[The ones who summoned us and made a contract were only humans. Was it wrong?]

“That's...

Of course, the priests couldn't help but tremble at his question.

Some of them looked at the proud saintess, wanting to rely on them.

No, it's useless to send an SOS to him.

That woman can't beat that either.

But since it's a long time ago, shall we give it a chance?

“Oh, come to think of it, the priest said something interesting earlier. saintess?

Would you like to try it?”

I slightly pointed towards the spirit king.

“Certainly, if the spirits are evil according to doctrine, they will lose their pulse in front of your power.”

I was willing to give him a chance to earn the title of Spirit King Slayer.

“Rather, it may be an opportunity to prove the authenticity of the doctrine of the Holy Kingdom in an easy-to-understand manner.”

I am kind.

I'm willing to concede a stage where I can play an active role to my opponent.

So I secretly instigated a fight.

“What would you like to do?”

“...I don't think that's necessary.”

In the end, contrary to expectations, the saintess made an effort to politely decline.

Hey, what are you missing? That's right, it's just a burning hedgehog.

Aren't you afraid of that size?

It's just that it's no different than a burning balloon, right?

In fact, the fire spirit king doesn't want to show off, but let's make eye contact with me.

dodged

Look at this? It's only this kind of hogu.

ruler! Take this opportunity to defeat the spirit king and make a name for yourself, saintess?

“I don’t think we need to fight.”

However, she declined my long-awaited invitation in a clear voice.

“Then do you admit it?”

“I understand what you mean. I understood the opinion that there might be a misunderstanding between the spirits and our church.”

“Hmm, what does that mean?”

“We promise that the Holy Kingdom will not impose any sanctions on Princess Pena from now on.”

At the conclusion of the saintess, the faithful priests looked back in bewilderment.

“Saintess!”

“In the end, I just agreed with Arell Ernesia's opinion. Maybe there is a misunderstanding. So it is premature to unjustly designate it as a heresy.”

I don't know why I can't honestly say that I'm withdrawing because I'm scared.

“Hmm? Does that mean that you also understand that the current treatment of the other Elementalists is wrong?”

“If there is.”

“Is that so? It's just fine.”

“yes?”

“Actually, there are more Elemental Consuls.”

The saintess opened her eyes wide.

I can feel the harsh energy that makes me want to ask what kind of bullshit it is.

“Actually, several letters came to me after that day.”

I took out the letters.

“A letter… you mean?”

“Yes, who do you think this is from?”

“They are different elemental spirits.”

“No way!”

Nelvenia couldn't stand her strong emotions for a moment and woke up.

Only then, realizing her ugliness, did she sit quietly and try to pass on what she had just told her.

“…Amazing. Were there any other Elementalists left?”

“This means that no matter how much we suppress it, it is impossible to completely disappear. In addition, the elemental spirit is a power that prioritizes personal qualities rather than lineage.”

It means that any number of people who are accidentally born with spirit affinity can be born.

There are talented people that even the spirit kings don't know about.

It's obvious right away that they don't know about the spirits they have contracted with the spirits under them.

At that point, I was sure there would be more Elementalists.

“They summoned up the courage to send me a letter after hearing the news of the princess last time. He said he wanted to entrust himself to Ernesia Kingdom.”

And now they are doing very well in Fahilia.

The rice is delicious.

“246 people.”

I continued by mentioning the number of elementalists who had been hiding from the followers of the Holy Kingdom until now.

“These people are also victims of the doctrine of the holy kingdom. Then, like Princess Pena, they must be rewarded.”

The priests made faces telling them to stop talking nonsense and barely held back the urge to shout.

If you confront me here, you must be afraid of the Spirit King who is still summoned.

“I will ask you one thing, Arele Ernesia.”

“yes.”

Ask anything.

As I shrugged my shoulders, the saintess stared at me with serious eyes and asked.

“Are you going to teach them spiritism yourself?”

The gaze looking at me while asking such a question is somehow tense.

“I don’t know.”

I answered honestly.

“You don't know... you don't want to hear that kind of answer, do you?”

“It will depend on the outcome of today's talks. They were afraid of the Heretic Inquisitor of the Holy Kingdom, so they entrusted themselves to Pahilia. If the oppression continues, I may have to humanely teach them how to defend themselves.”

The saintess shut her mouth.

Yes, the 246 elemental magicians answered honestly.

“You don't know... you don't want to hear that kind of answer, do you?”

“It will depend on the outcome of today's talks. They were afraid of the Heretic Inquisitor of the Holy Kingdom, so they entrusted themselves to Pahilia. If the oppression continues, I may have to humanely teach them how to defend themselves.”

The saintess shut her mouth.

That's right, 246 elemental spirits might join me with the available power.

Pena, whom I taught, summoned the Spirit King at this spot.

So what about the other spirits?

Perhaps the sight of all the 7 Elemental Spirit Kings being summoned may be flashing through their minds right now.

Even if it is not, the Seongguk wants war.

hope for invasion

It would be a bad sight for them.

“But if you stop being afraid of the Heretic Questioner, that won't happen. They don't even want to fight in the first place. Isn't that right, saintess?”

In response to my blatant question, the saintess said, “Whew….He let out a sigh.

“...There is a possibility that we misinterpreted the doctrine due to our lack of culture in our awareness of the spirits.”

The saintess meekly withdrew.

“We will review the rest of the Elemental Wizard issues later. First of all, I promise you there will never be a bad conclusion.”

I expected you to resist more, but unexpectedly, you backed off with ease.

Well, no matter who sees it, it only seems to be backing down because he doesn't have the guts to fight properly with the King of Spirits.

He must have been concerned that if he didn't care, he might join the Plus Spirit in Ernesia Kingdom and fight.

Did you calculate that it would be better to admit it and hand it over than to turn it into an enemy?

....Well, it's just that it's better for me to have a fight.

It doesn't matter.

The purpose of my coming here today is not to have a fight between the spirit king and the saint.

That would be a big match worth watching.

It was expected that there was little chance of that happening.

I prepared popcorn just in case, but it's a pity.

So shall we move on to the next one?

Even this guy needs to be persuaded.

“Your Majesty the Emperor.”

When I looked at the Emperor, he was perplexed.

“...what else?”

“Princess Pena's qualities have reached this level. But is this really an unnecessary quality?”

“But the Holy Kingdom…

“Even the Holy Kingdom admits the error of doctrine.”

“Umm… that’s right.”

He doesn't give a definite answer, but the emperor can't criticize Pena's quality anymore.

It's good. Penagan roughly finished it with this.

Now that red hugu is in the way, so I ordered Pena to turn it off.

Only then did the Spirit King exit in the order he had instructed.

As the flames died down, there were breaths of relief from all over the place at the same time.

I must have been quite frightened.

Well, now let's move on to the next topic.

From now on, this is the main point.

I did this in the first place to sabotage the treaty.

“by the way. I think I have no shame in saying this belatedly. I am truly sorry that I have no choice but to hold an event like this at a time like this.”

When I suddenly said this, the emperor was puzzled, but for now pretended to be moderately sad and tried to reply.

“Um... it was definitely sudden.

What's more... The Empire was trying to make an important treaty with the Holy State? Of course, I'm not blaming you, Allernesia.”

“Actually, I have something to tell you about that.”

Once again everyone's attention began to turn towards me.

“I don't know if it's meddling. I would like to suggest that you review the treaty again.”

“Arel Ernesia! Anyway, that's too much of a no-brainer.”

The emperor was displeased.

Even so, Pena Gunn seemed quite upset about meddling with the treaty.

Looking at it, I still don't notice.

After we leave this place today, they will want to open another place to conclude a treaty.

You can't leave it like that.

“I admit that it is too meddling. But this time, I decided that I had to intervene somehow, so I came out.”

I didn't back down.

“If you really feel offended, I will formally apologize later, so please listen to me first.”

“...If that's the case, why don't you set aside some time to do it?”

The Emperor is impatient and tries to change his mind.

It must be because the saintess is here.

Then shouldn't I say more now?

“no. I have to tell you now. It seems that His Majesty the Emperor is completely unaware of the dangers of the treaty. Holy lady...isn't it?”
