Chapter 286 – Question

“Judith. You are serious. You have a lot of baskets stuck in your head.”
Judith sat on her knees, naked, quietly listening to my sermon.
“I have no face.”
Judith bowed her head deeply.
Her face is a little…
No, she looked quite somber.
Now that I think about it, wouldn’t it have been shocking for her to see herself as a pervert?
Besides, she was her virgin.
What she said was that it was the first time she had discovered that kind of self. So, the shock must have come several times as large.
If Judith had not been on a high level, she might not have been able to control her mind and would have been caught in her coin lip.
Even now, she seemed to be in the middle of the day.
“Uhm…You have to wash that basket.”
“Eh, the basket… Stand, His Holiness… To wash the basket… Well, I… What should I do…”
Unfortunately, I don’t know how to treat perverts either.
Even so, there is no law that can’t just leave her alone.
“It’s the first time for me to be like you. But! I have no intention of giving up on you.”
“It’s great… For me… I’m sorry. His Holiness.”
Judith bowed her head deeply to her, moved.
“Your perversion won’t subside easily. Let’s train by my side for the time being and find a way together.”
“It is an honor to open such grace for me.”
If you are a man, you have to step out for a woman at times.
“Stop wearing your clothes now. I need to deal with the guys outside too.”
“All right.”
She said she was punishing Judith and left the paladins outside for a while.
When I went outside…If the paladin guys showed even the slightest disheveled appearance, I thought I’d do all sorts of things.
‘I thought so…’
Even after quite some time has passed.
I saw the paladin guys with their heads planted on the garden floor and taking perfect posture without any shaking.
Head-beating, in other words, Wonsan bombing.
This is one of the notorious acts of cruelty by the outdated army.
However.
These paladins were not normal humans.
Superman who knows how to use Aura…
Among them, they were human weapons that reached a considerable level. So the Wonsan bombing was no big deal to the paladins.
‘Nimi…’
There was nothing wrong with it.
This is my mistake
‘Oh… You guys aren’t funny…’
“…”
“His Holiness… Don’t you like something… But we selected the elite among our Knights and brought them to you.”
Judith examined my complexion and carefully asked.
The excitement has cooled.
But it’s kind of like saying that it’s no fun because these guys followed my instructions so perfectly.
And I was relieved to some extent by punishing Judith and became more tolerant.
Decided to show mercy.
“…The garden is very damaged.”
“I’m sorry. I’ll make sure the garden is completely restored right away.”
“Then, don’t leave the rest to you, Judith.”
“Please leave it to me.”

“Have you met Tera?”
When I returned to her mansion after entrusting the paladins to Judith, Liliana, who had been hiding and watching the situation, appeared and asked me.
Liliana’s eyes were shining with curiosity.
She seemed to notice that I was talking to Terra.
-Chuck!
I showed her her stigmata of Terra engraved on my right hand.
– Flash. Flash
Even adding dazzling special effects.
“…What are you doing?”
Liliana asked me, frowning at the brilliant light of her stigmata.
“Liliana, what the hell. You won’t kneel at the sight of this sacred stigma… You unbeliever!”
“…That’s ridiculous. Do you think I’d kneel down to you like those fanatics?”
It’s a shame.
Like Judith, I wanted to see Liliana crawling on me naked, but…
Certainly Judith and those paladins are strange.
“I’m sure you can feel the divine power from Terra’s stigma… That’s probably why those guys lie down on their faces… Yeah, how was Terra?”
With her Liliana personality, it was only natural that she wondered what kind of being ruled her world.
“How was Tera? Um…It was pretty.”
“…And?”
“And? Well… Except for her unusual iridescent hair color and her wings, she was just a pretty girl.”
“You… You only have that much of an appreciation after meeting the goddess?!”
Liliana said as if it were absurd.
“Then I want her to be in awe of her. I don’t think you’re saying that you don’t kneel down even after seeing her stigma…”
If Terra had helped me both physically and mentally like a savior since the days when I desperately needed power, I might have felt that way.
But she and Terra are meeting for the first time.
There was no way something like that could have happened.
“I am a sorceress at the pinnacle of pursuing the truth. Terra’s stigma alone cannot bring her to her knees.”
“Do you hate Terra?”
“… It’s not. Not as much as those fanatics… But I don’t hate Terra. She is anyway…”
She came closer to me and asked subtly, holding her hands together.
“This stigma … Can’t she take a little bit of it from me.”
Liliana’s eyes were full of greed.
… This kind of sound came out when I heard it, and it was a look at her eyes that anyone could see that her hand would not have been cut off if it was a small rice bowl.
“It’s not difficult to take it off, but… If you do, it will probably disappear.”
It was about giving up on Judith.
I had no intention of giving up this good thing now.
“Shit… That’s… Sorry.”
Liliana licked her lips and stared at her stigmata for a while, lingeringly.

Royal Palace of Baruras.
Baron Dollyne and Dalton, the leader of the Knights of Varun, who followed as his escort, hurriedly returned to the capital as quickly and stealthily as possible.
For the sake of secrecy, the teleport magic circle was not used, so it was unavoidable that it took some time to return.
Baron Dollyn notified the king of the success of the princess’ marriage ceremony.
“Oh… Did he allow it?”
“Yes, I was delighted and received the portrait. And he said he wanted to see Princess Cristina as soon as possible.”
“Heh…Our Cristina is pretty.”
“How is it? You don’t seem to have any intention of stopping by the palace?”
“I’m sorry. He didn’t seem to have any intention of moving.”
When Baron Dolly briefly talked about being invited to the palace, he couldn’t say anything at the sight of his bloody eyes.
“Hmm…It can’t be helped.”
King Frederick intended to send the princess officially to Slubber in the near future to quietly spread the news that they were engaged.
Not long after the preparations for the meeting between the princess and the Transcendentalist began, a report came in that a Paladin of the Church of Terra had entered Barulas.
“Suddenly, what the hell is going on with a Terran paladin?”
“They say it crossed the border without even asking.”
“Haa…Those idiots.”
Harsh words came out of King Frederick’s mouth at General Cornel’s words.
He is a Holy Knight of the Church of Terra.
He arbitrarily dragged armed troops into the kingdom without saying anything, but he couldn’t even protest.
“No way…”
It reminded me that there was a story about a black magician in a report that came in from the slumber side through Marquis Alex a while ago.
‘There was a report that the transcendent and the black magician collided…’
The master of a place called the Dark Blood Clan was related to the warlock. However, the Transcendentalist dealt with him, and the Dark Blood Clan split up after losing his leader.
King Frederick did not want an uncontrollable armed force to enter the kingdom, and of course, the black magician’s work was not reported to Terra.
Any king would have done something like this.
But, out of nowhere, a Terracian paladin appeared.
‘Did you smell the black magician? Or was there another spy?’
“Or…Is there a slubber in the expected path?”
“Yes, there are slumbers.”
As expected, the target of the Paladins seemed to be slumber.
King Frederick summoned Marquis Alex.
The black magician’s work in Slumber was a top secret, but Marquis Alex, who managed Cerberus, of course knew about it.
“What do you think of this?”
“Certainly… The target appears to be a slubber.”
“Marquis Alex, pay more attention to the paladins’ movements in the slumber.”
“All right.”
The king, who was thinking of sending the princess to the slubber, decided to postpone the plan for a while.
And shortly thereafter, news of the paladin came from Cerberus again.
“…What did you say? Holy knights… Guarding the mansion of the transcendent?”
“Yes… It seems that there was a loud battle at first, but… I wonder what happened to me too…”
Marquis Alex spoke with a troubled expression.
“Did you know about Terragyo?”
“Yeah… But for some reason, it’s a hush atmosphere.”
“…That’s strange.”
‘Does the Church of Terra know that he is a Transcendent?’
Not many people in the kingdom know that he is a transcendental being.
Even if there were rumors about transcendental beings, it was too early for the rumors to reach the empire.
It didn’t make sense to react so quickly.
“Is there any movement from the Empire side?”
“Yes… According to the information received not too long ago, I know that there has been no significant movement.”
This is normal.
But… A Holy Knight of the Church of Terra.
Propagation?
Thera religion actively propagates to the strong… But the strong do not go over that well because they have no reason to live a restrained life by taking refuge in the Terra religion.
Even so, King Frederick felt uneasy for some reason.
‘Ser, can’t you… Marry a saintess?’
It hasn’t happened recently, but there is a record of such a thing happening in the past history.
A record of gaining strong believers through the marriage of a being with transcendental powers and a saintess.
If a transcendentalist marries a saint and takes refuge, this marriage meeting will be like a dog chasing chickens.
That’s something even the emperor of an empire can’t do.
This may be an overthinking.
If the real Thera religious saint moved, the empire would shake. She couldn’t have known.
Although he knew in his head that it was not, King Frederick’s heart became uneasy.
“… Come on, hurry up and send her princess to her slumber!”
