I Became an Immoral Child in the Game

28 – 6-Holy Son, Holy Son.

“My last name is Van Hoth. The northerners don’t even know what the last name of a swordsman is, right? But I’m grateful that the northerners recognize me.”

“Are your men too stupid to be from the North? Gee, I think I treated my comrades too harshly.”

“Looking at the way you tongue-tied at my threat, you’ve got the distribution to survive facing the Great Demon of Plague. So, who is that fool?”

It is said that words without words travel a thousand miles, and I would have thought that even the vice-captain of the Knights of the Holy Cross would know.

It sure seems to be going as intended.

I hid my joy and spat ridiculed words at Runea.

“You call yourself Drich von Oxburg, since I’m Bjorn de Jeezitz? They’re the Knights of the Holy Cross. Serving two emperors. Even just one lighthouse for humanity is too much.”

Runea petted the galloping horse and got off the saddle.

He then filled the sheath tied to the side of the saddle around his waist with an effortless movement.

No matter how much the Humanity Lighthouse is the Knights of the De Yewitz family, I have to say something.

She was much more like a medieval knight than a fisherman in her lighthouse village or such a great human being.

[My God, isn’t it Bjorn who doesn’t s*xually harass you with his way of talking and acting?]

‘I’m not that lucky?’

[You are obsessed with middle names, and you have a rude tone and a twisted sense of humor. If you were born as a woman and grow old, I think you would look just like that.]

I hated Jin’s absurd nonsense.

‘The middle name between me and Runea is not a middle name. A middle surname. It’s a sign of a noble family with a long history from Homeland, right? That’s why when I called Lord Lunea’s name to provoke her, I deliberately omitted it.’

[It’s the same as being obsessed with useless things like that, you idiot!]

While Jin and I were chatting, Runea came towards me, making a clicking sound as she slapped the mud with her thick armor.

“Where did you get the courage to say such a thing in front of the imperial guards? You could get summarily executed for insulting the imperial family right now. Do you think the proud Dejeevitz family will protect you?”

“I don’t think His Majesty will protect the Knights of the Holy Cross, who went wild in the North. The way to protect the authority of the Imperial Family is to protect the Holy Cross Knights Nari, who was crowned emperor today. I’m afraid I won’t be able to judge the situation…”

“It’s true that he has royal blood, so he’s smart. It’s hard to believe that he was born into the Djejitz family. Don’t you often hear that you don’t look like your father?”

Has this bastard just pad-ripped?

What is the similarity between this wicked bastard and me?

Jin’s eyes must be knotted.

At that moment Barton came up to me and whispered.

“The fact that he doesn’t say a word is just like Bjorn-sama.”

“Where are you going!”

I should have let the senior knights beat me!

“Are you the general manager here?”

“……That’s right.”

Runea pushed back the humanity lighthouse that was besieging it and faced the Holy Cross Knights dispatched to investigate the dungeon.

The Knight of the Holy Cross will be unfair.

As usual, he did chores like investigating dungeons under the control of the Holy See, and embezzled public money as a small reward.

But I thought the vice-captain of the Knights of the Holy Cross would appear in this corner of the country.

“You’re the second emperor we serve?”

“That’s because a child I’ve never seen introduces me as Bjorn de Yeezitz… Uh?!”

“I cut off my wrists for embezzlement of public money, and my tongue for insulting the imperial family. Don’t cut your throat, it’s a bother.”

The head of the Knight of the Holy Cross fell obliquely from his neck as if it had been cut by a sharp line.

It was an instant to get the knife drawn out.

The throat fell first and the blood gushed out reminded me of Kanniel’s unique story when he executed the fisherman in Lighthouse Village in the past.

If you become a sword master, you must try that.

“I will take responsibility for the compensation of the residents they embezzled. I will thoroughly calculate the reward for discovering the dungeon and put it on the Djeevitz family.”

“It’s the North’s job to punish illegal activities in the North. Don’t try to take it quietly.”

I definitely asked where to punish this incident.

As expected from the central region, he is good at politics.

But I’m not going to fall for this kind of cheating.

At my words, Runea wrinkled her brow.

“Why don’t you move on to not cutting your tongue? Or is the North a place free of imperial insults?”

“Then cut my tongue and leave the guilty Knights of the Holy Cross alone. Of course, I don’t know if I can cut my tongue and cross the northern border safely.”

“I’m a sword master right now, so that’s going to be difficult… Alright, I’ll stop talking nonsense at this point. What do you want?”

I could have done it all day!

I licked my lips and got to the point.

“I would like you to submit detailed documents on the punishment of the knights involved in this incident to the De Yewitz family. I will also assign a Knight of the Lighthouse of Humanity to pay for the compensation and dungeon investigation. Through him, I will pay the villagers a reward. Do it.”

“Haa, I don’t like it from one to ten, but I will.”

“And I want the dungeon reward to be paid quickly. Of course, I expect it will be difficult to set the reward because it is an unprecedented dungeon.”

Runea tilted his head with an absurd expression.

“The dungeon you found is neither unique nor spectacular. The Frost Golem is unusual, but it is a small and common dungeon. The reason for the delay in the payment of the reward is probably because our knights, who were embezzling public money here, did not work. There.”

Come to think of it, this dungeon was a place disguised with minimal troops to conceal the place where the demon king Moloch sealed Jin’s soul before fleeing to the polar region after winning the fight against Jin.

In other words, the moment Jin’s seal was lifted, this dungeon wasn’t particularly valuable.

“Now, wait! Then why is the vice-captain of the Knights of the Holy Cross in this corner of the country…”

A very bad intuition ran through the back of my head and hit my brain.

Amber took a boy’s hand and called me.

“Bjorn-nim, as you commanded, I came to visit a little boy named Mion.”

At that moment, light shone from the pearl-like jewel hanging around Lunaa’s neck.

It didn’t take long to figure out what that meant.

“It is the Holy Son! The Holy Son has revealed himself to the world!”

Oh really f*cking.

I feel like I’m about to go crazy.

What is a saint?

A being chosen by the Lord.

He is a hero who holds his holy sword high, slays demons, and protects mankind.

Currently, the official saint is Sword Saint Landeros.

For a long time of 250 years, he was a great knight and a saint who was loved by the main god and devoted himself to mankind.

However, in recent years, rumors have circulated that the light of the Holy Sword Crawling Foot has disappeared.

He was already getting old day by day.

No matter how much he surpasses the sword master, he will hit the limit of his lifespan when he is over 250 years old.

Everyone was quiet, but accepted the fact that it would be difficult for the Sword Saint to play the role of a saint any longer.

The loss of the holy sword means that a new saint has been born.

The first goal of the Knights of the Holy Cross was to find a saint who must have been born somewhere.

However, the saint could not be found until the time when the devil invaded Esteria.

To avoid confusion, they had to search the entire continent of Esteria while hiding the fact that Renderoth was no longer a saint.

It was impossible to search the entire continent of Esteria without excluding a large-scale search.

In addition, it was also a problem that the new saint was in the north.

How can the Knights of the Holy Cross be dispatched to the northern part of the autonomous territory without revealing the proper reason?

For many reasons, the fact that Mion was a saint could never be revealed until the demon invasion.

It shouldn’t have been.

If only some idiot didn’t troll.

‘Ah, you stupid idiot!’

If I had a gun, I would put it in my mouth and pull the trigger three more times.

How could that bounty provide justification for dispatching the Knights of the Holy Cross to Lothric Village!

No matter how humble a department under the Vatican is, the search for the saint will surely be carried out!

It’s my fault, but it’s unfair to feel unfair.

I never thought that the day I arrived in Lothric, the vice-captain of the Knights of the Holy Cross would start searching.

If I had been a day earlier, I would have left for Stemwind with Mion, and even if Lunaa had arrived a day earlier, I would not have been able to find Mion living deep in the mountains.

I can only say that this was a prank by the biographer of Esteria.

[I thought the talent was extraordinary, but that kid was a saint.]

‘The problem is that I have no intention of handing Mion over to the Knights of the Holy Cross.’

[No matter how urgent the talent is, do you intend to keep the saint? Don’t you give up for the sake of all mankind?]

‘I will not give up for the sake of all of humanity. Geomseong is an old man who has lost his strength, and Mion is young. Do you think the seungnyang in the capital will let Mion focus on training? The moment she arrives at the Oxtantium, she’ll be rolling around with political propaganda and wasting an important period.’

The Oxburg Empire is already dying in a war with the Hunta Kingdom.

If a saint appears at this time, the emperor will turn lukewarm here and there to strengthen the imperial authority.

“Holy Son, we’ve waited a long time to meet you like this. Come on, come with us.”
