Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty-Seven
"That's really ...... Bad yet. ”
After just flipping through a few pages of notes, Leo took a few deep breaths and was directly shocked by the contents.
Unexpectedly, I really didn't expect that the rumored demon race, which was extremely fierce and had the notoriety of eating people alive, would be such a simple race, and what Leo didn't expect was that the gods that people had been worshiping and worshipping since ancient times would also have such a cruel side.
"I really didn't expect it...... It turns out that the first war between humans and demons in history was actually induced by those gods, and no wonder the Holy See will rise so quickly from its establishment to its rise, it turns out that the first pope of the Holy See will actually be...... It's going to be the god of light himself!...... Have you established a cult of yourself? This is really a god with a bad taste......"
In fact, Leo did suspect that the Holy See had quietly done anything during the Great War, after all, there was no reason why an organization that had been established shortly before the Great War had no reason or such strength, and stood at the apex of all human forces decades after the Great War began.
Even if he doesn't want to admit it, Leo doesn't think that human beings are so simple, and it would be so simple for a weak organization to stand on the top. Even in a critical time like a big war, there will always be people who can't see such things happen. Even if it is a major matter related to the survival of the race, there will always be some people who only care about their own interests. So, there must be something strange about this matter.
After all, if there is one more organization competing with oneself for interests, then the benefits you can get will be reduced. So so that this does not happen, the people at the top don't always limit the development of the people at the bottom, limit all aspects of them, do they......
But as a result, the development of the Holy See was not only not hindered in any way, but also began to swell rapidly, which was completely unreasonable in Leo's eyes. It is absolutely impossible to say that there is nothing greasy in this.
It's just that Leo didn't expect that from the Great War to the rise of the Holy See, it was actually the gods who caused trouble, and he was shocked by this.
"No wonder this notebook is something very important...... If this stuff gets out, it will really cause terrible consequences. ”
Closing the note, Leo stood up, carefully put away the note, and solemnly placed it in his arms, close to his body.
It's no wonder that Andrew would look at Leo with that kind of meaningful look, after all, if the existence of this thing was known by the Holy See, Leo would definitely be wanted by the Holy See at any cost, not only that, but even the gods could notice him, it was like putting a bomb on his body, if he was not careful, it would explode, no, maybe it would be even more terrifying, after all, the gods' methods are not so simple.
"Well, that's a troublesome thing...... If you're not careful, you'll get into other people's hands. ”
This...... This is one of the reasons why Abt would give this thing to Leo, after all, Leo is alone, and he can take all the responsibilities and walk away.
However, due to the fact that he had received too many heavy things for a while, Leo suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness, and was a little worried about the future, so much so that even the plan that he had wanted to train quietly by himself was now ...... He was no longer in that mood.
After briefly cleaning up the expression on his face and trying to make his face look less strange, Leo rushed back to his dormitory, intending to take a good rest and calm his current mood by the way.
Then, the next day, Abt called Leo out, as if he had something to tell him.
It's just that both of them didn't know what to say at first, after all, what happened yesterday was indeed too shocking, especially the part about the truth, even if it was a night, it really couldn't calm Leo's mood.
"I'm sorry...... Leo, for you to suddenly be burdened with such a thing, it seems that no matter what time it is, I am still an unqualified adult. ”
Even if Abt didn't do it voluntarily and there was no way to do it, it didn't mean that he really wanted to do it.
After all, this was his obligation in the first place, his responsibility, and what he had to bear, but in the end, he let his disciple, a young man who had just come of age, take on something that he might not be able to afford himself, so is he still a qualified teacher, a qualified adult?
No, his behavior can only be called scum...... Leaving dangerous things to others, and you don't have to take any risks yourself, this is completely something that only a despicable and shameless villain can do.
And he's doing such a despicable and shameless thing right now.
Therefore, no matter how embarrassing it is, even if it is only a word of apology, Abt must solemnly apologize to Leo.
"Hey!! what's wrong with you, teacher, I can't afford it. ”
It's not to help, it's not to help, what the hell is going to do with him......
As a result, Leo is now at a loss, and he doesn't know what to do at all.
"No, this is what you should accept! This should be what we should do, but it turned out that a child like you was left alone, if you don't do this, I really can't help it!"
Abt's attitude was very resolute, and there was absolutely no room for Leo to refute.
"But that's really ......"
If nothing else, in Leo's eyes, although he did accept a heavy burden, compared to the teaching he received, to be honest, he did not think that Abt owed himself anything. Rather, he himself owes Abt the grace of his teaching.
Therefore, Abt's inexplicable and extremely solemn apology this time confused Leo.
And...... If it drags on like this, I'm afraid that both of them will waste a lot of time on this.
"Teacher, you should have something to call me out today, if you continue like this, it will probably be dark. ”
Leo had no choice but to interrupt the endless act first.
"It's a big deal, just run away when the time comes. ”
Leo thought to himself.
"Well, you need to know what we're going to do next. ”
When Abt heard this, he immediately sighed, understanding that Leo probably would not accept his apology, and that time really couldn't drag on like this. I had no choice but to explain his mission to Leo first.
"What?The lifting of the space seal?!Is it just me?!"
However, when he heard that the task assigned to him was actually to lift the spatial seal set by the Holy See, Leo was immediately taken aback.
Is it okay to entrust such an important task to him like this?
But after a little thought, he understood why.
After all, this kind of thing, the less people know about it, the better, isn't it?
"yes...... It's just you for now...... We can't do it right now. ”
So, why Abt blames himself so much, the reason is that the difficulty of this task is too high, and it is very dangerous, and even if he assigns the task to Leo, he needs to set up an enchantment nearby to prevent others from hearing things that should not be heard.
"Is that so...... Well, I got it. ”
When you go out to practice, can you lift the space seal set by the Holy See...... Although it seems like a task to be completed by the way, in fact, going out to experience is a pretense, and the real purpose should be to complete this task.
After knowing the details, Leo thought about getting out of here as soon as possible, lest the endless things that happened before happen again, but ......
"Wait a minute, Leo, take this!"
Suddenly, Abt called out to Leo halfway through his departure, and threw an object in his hand at Leo.
"Huh?"
Surprised, Leo naturally caught what Abt had thrown at him, but after that he left in a hurry. Presumably worried
"Really...... I'm glad I didn't raise him to be an adult like me. ”
Abt felt very fortunate about this.
But at the same time, it has become more guilty.
After all, he was leading a promising young man to his death.
Whatever the reason, he could not turn a blind eye to this sin.
