I was excommunicated from the Holy Knights

36 – done

Lipton brought before the lord.

At this moment, in this room, not only the lord, but also the archbishop in charge of the city, and all the people he had tricked into heresy this time were all gathered.

“This piece of trash…”

“Lord! Please punish the author immediately!”

They shout with a voice filled with anger.

Regarding this, Yeongju also opened his mouth while looking at Lipton with a cold expression.

“Everything about the evil you committed has been revealed. How dare you commit such a terrible thing in the name of God!”

“What a terrible thing! You are wrong! I just did my job as a heretic newspaper official to punish heretics in a fair way!”

Even in the midst of this, Lipton confidently expresses his opinion.

That would also be the case, anyone could be punished without restriction if they brought the name of heresy, and no one could take issue with it.

But now, he thought that it would be impossible to try to strangle him with this problem, and he raised his voice without hesitation at all.

But… his reaction only aroused the anger of those present here.

“Heresy? under! Yes.. you see us as heretics, this is it, right?”

“How dare you blaspheme our faith!”

“archbishop! We can’t stand it any longer! Such an attitude when all the crimes have been revealed!”

“It would be right to be punished immediately!”

People who do not back down at all about their words.

At the same time, not only the lord but also the archbishop showed signs of sympathy, and it was only then that Lipton began to feel that something was really going wrong.

‘Stop… can’t you? ..Ah..No, it can’t be. Until now, if you brought the crime of heresy, everyone, whether it be the lord or the lord, would accept it. But… but why is this…’

As he began to feel deep doubts, confusion, and growing anxiety about the current situation, Lipton’s eyes turned to the archbishop standing in front of him.

In fact, the archbishop, who was his biggest supporter, and who tolerated his actions while accepting the reward money.

But… the archbishop, who should have protected him in this situation, said with a voice filled with deep anxiety as he looked at the people he labeled as heretics.

“..what has happened so far.. is very regrettable. As the representative of the church, I will apologize to those present here.”

“big… Archbishop…?”

His head is lowered and he shows a low posture.

At this, Lipton’s face began to look embarrassed, and then Yeongju spoke to Lipton in a cold voice.

“… Apparently… you still don’t understand the situation. Hello.”

“yes.”

“Bring the ‘evidence’.”

“All right.”

At the words of the lord, the attendant slowly handed over a bundle of documents.

The attendant then dropped it in front of Lipton… Then Lipton’s face began to harden.

“This..this..this..how..”

It is.. the ledger written while working on this work and the paper with the list of people accused of heresy. And for this purpose, the way people move, etc.. It was a plan with all the contents of the series written in detail.

And.. the person who owns this at the end is.. Cazeros, who brought the plan with the words that he would let me know if there were any problems immediately after starting work.

If it were the original Lipton, even if it was his collaborator, he would have been a little suspicious or cautious in handing over such important data.

However, at that time, he was literally blinded by the 1,000 talents of cash in front of him.

He couldn’t make a normal judgment, so he made the mistake of handing over the data in a very light manner, and after that, he completely forgot about it for a while, only focusing on finishing the job.

As a result..

Those materials are here.

It was only then that Lipton was able to grasp the situation clearly what it meant to be in the hands of the lord.

‘Sir.. no way… ca.. Cazeros, that person is really me..’

The back of the head from an unexpected person.

However, even before Lipton could feel the emotion of anger about this, words began to pour out of the lord’s mouth that would plunge his mind into abyss.

“By the way, the person who handed this over demanded that you be punished for accusing innocent people of heresy and being killed in this way. In addition to that… the Gajireso, who suffered huge losses because of this incident, and the people here who lent building documents to you and didn’t get them back, all accused you.”

“that… that..”

Lipton’s body began to tremble as he realized that what he had done had been revealed to the whole world, and the archbishop bowed his head to the lord and said in front of him.

“Really… I’m sorry. To think that there would be such an evil child of the devil who would punish good believers for heresy… I think we should set an example so that this will never happen again in the future.”

“Yes, of course. In addition, I hope there will be no more noise like heresy and whatnot. Until now, I have tolerated this as a follower of the Lord, but there is no law that this will not happen again. If you make a fuss about heresy in the future, I will never let it go.”

“…and… I’ll keep that in mind.”

It was an issue that was overlooked by the church because of the surrounding atmosphere, but honestly, from the lord’s point of view, it was never good to see a riot while being questioned about heresy.

Whatever the heresy, if merchants in the city were damaged and public sentiment was unstable due to this, all the damage was eventually returned to the lord in the name of loss and population decline.

And, just as he had an appropriate pretext, he actively talked about this issue,

Regarding the lord’s words, the archbishop had no choice but to accept them without even refuting them.

He, too, knew that the cause of the Heresy Questioning had weakened too much because of this incident.

In addition, he had no choice but to give up this ‘business’, which had been a fairly lucrative income, as he knew that the victims standing here would not stay still if he made a strange noise here.

“Then, let this case proceed as such, and we will immediately go into the interrogation of the guilty.”

With those words, everyone in the room turned to Lipton.

What is contained within it is resentment, anger, and the feelings of killing

No matter how frighteningly brazen he possessed, Lipton could no longer say anything in the face of this face-to-face.

And towards him.

The lord gave the final sentence resolutely.

“Lipton has been accusing innocent believers of heresy and brutally murdering them for economic gain, and in the process, made the citizens tremble with anxiety and even inflicted damage on their property. Therefore, I, lord Obsidian, sentence Lipton to be hanged for his sins.”

In fact, Lipton received all the sins that he had committed up to now due to the Heresy Inquisition.

As a result, fear and despair about death dwelled on his face, and at the same time, screams began to pour out.

“Oh, no! I… I can’t die like this! I… I’m innocent! I was just following God’s will!”

“Come on, pull me out! And make sure to catch all the guys who followed them! I will take this opportunity to set a firm example for those who stir up strife with heresy and all!”

“No eh eh!!”

At the end of that scream, Lipton was dragged outside…

Before long, I could no longer make any noise.

“..it’s over.”

“yes?”

“Whoops. it’s nothing.”

An inn located about 30 km from Munich.

There, Cazeros, I, and a new woman who joined us on this journey…

Polena was taking a break for a while.

For a moment, Polena is showing a refreshed expression.

Looking at her like this, I didn’t pay much attention, thinking that the afterglow of the past would not go away.

No.. To be precise, I couldn’t care.

The reason… was because of Polena, who had been sticking next to me like a chewing gum ever since I left Munich, and Cazeros’ gaze, looking at us with a look of discomfort.

“Then, Master, you are going to be hungry, so I will go and bring you something.”

Regarding Polena, who spoke in a voice full of energy more than usual, I spoke to her with a feeling of awkwardness that did not go away.

“No.. so.. a little bit about the owner..”

“If the owner is uncomfortable, what should I call you? Will it be better? master? Or else… honey?”

-It’s too much!-

This grinding sound that can be heard momentarily.

In response, I felt awkward in many ways and told Polena.

“..that..just.. to the master..”

“yes! master! I Polena, as Santana’s eternal slave, I will continue to be loyal! Please use your body and mind the way you want. If anything, I’ll be on the nightstand right now..”

“Kuu!..”

At that word, Cazeros seemed to have an expression of anger on his face for an instant.

Regarding this, I spoke to Polena with a bit of urgency.

“Ah… no. No need for that, just go and order something to eat.”

I expected it to some extent, but in many ways, she has great tension.

It was quite a burden while watching this, but at least I thought that there would be nothing to be bored in the future.

‘By the way… we’ve come this far, Bohemia region…’

A small hill begins to appear before your eyes.

If you go over there, you will find your primary destination, the Bohemia region, and if you cross over to the Rhapsody region from there, you will be able to go directly to the Dragona Empire.

‘The problem… is that a rebellion will break out there sooner or later… but I think the answer is to pass as quickly as possible.’

So, this time, hoping not to get caught up in trouble, I held Cazeros’ hand as he slowly began to draw closer to me with an anxious expression on his face.

Thinking that maybe she, too, was very anxious about going to Bohemia.
