Chapter 17: Attention of the Church
Big "Oh, this place is too big. "Under King Liberl Castle Gransell, where a fierce battle took place not long ago, a man and a woman are traveling underground on a teleportation ladder. The woman is Captain Yulia Schwartz, the captain of the Kingdom Guard, while the man is a green-haired man with a wonderful hairstyle. At this time, his expression was frivolous, and he complained that if he didn't wear the priest's uniform, which is the symbol of the church, he would probably only be considered bad.
"Hehe, please rest assured, this is already the lowest level of the area." Yulia smiled.
"Oh, really?" The priest named Kevin immediately looked happy, "I'm still thinking about it." What would I do if you told me I still had a long way to go...... Goddess bless. β
"As a priest, this prayer is not very pious enough." Yulia immediately complained, "You are too modest, and you can see that His Royal Highness the priest, as the person who presides over the priesthood, has been quite trained. β¦β¦ If not, your job might just be difficult, right? β
"Oops, I'm losing to you." After being pierced and conceded defeat, Kevin raised his hands with a single expression, "Speaking of which, Captain Yulia, what kind of mayor's cane ......"
"It's Mayor Delmon." Yulia corrected, "The ancient relic, known as the Staff of Seals, has been properly kept according to the covenant between the royal family and the church. It is always available to you if you need it. "Yulia had done her homework before she came underground, and that was no problem.
"Oh, that's reliable." Kevin half-heartedly complimented, "Then please lead the way." β
"Okay, this way, please."

"This is ......" looked at the debris all over the ground, the depths of the ruins, the place where the fierce battle took place two months ago, even Kevin showed a look of surprise that did not seem to be fake, "What a terrible sight......
"Even if it's the Qiyao Church, it's quite difficult to properly dispose of this extraordinarily large ancient relic, right?" Yulia said, "Not to mention being completely destroyed like this." Even Dr. Russell said that there was no possibility of splicing the machine back together. β
"Can I take a look?" Although he found it difficult to get any information from it, Kevin insisted on the duties given to him by the Church of Travelers.
"Of course, Your Majesty has already made a will, please feel free. Also be sure to help us with your wisdom. β
After listening to Yulia's reply, Kevin approached the wreckage of Fantasia, which had been scattered all over the place, and observed it carefully, touching it from time to time.
"Sure enough, it was completely destroyed...... The arm was neatly cut off, and there were slight burnt marks from the incision...... Is it a high-voltage arc? As for the chest here...... It's a mess...... It's hard to imagine that such a hard thing made of ancient metal could be easily crushed like tofu...... Sure enough, there are also remnants of wonderful power here. β
"We've analyzed how this relic works, but it doesn't seem to be able to be explained by modern science. Dr. Russell once said that although it also operates on the basis of the energy of the conductive force, this energy is a very different system from the conductive force we use. Yulia explains, apparently, that she thinks Kevin is talking about "how Fantasia works".
"'The premature gift of the Goddess...... Our canon explains this as follows. Those things. Kevin casually talked, and his eyes were fixed on the four pillars that had fallen to the ground, "These pillars, when the pitch-black object called the 'gospel' is activated, retract back to the ground, right?" β
"Yes." Yulia nodded, "The Doctor has studied this as well, but still can't determine anything. β
"Looks ...... The structure here is just a door-like device. Kevin didn't say what he was thinking, but secretly thought, "Qiyao Crystal Vein, or is it another way...... In short, we can only try to see what the naked eye can't see. β
"Mr. Kevin?" Seeing Kevin crouching next to the mechanical wreckage and not speaking for a long time, Yulia couldn't help but ask.
"Ah...... Sorry, a little distracted. Kevin came from a trance, "Unfortunately, I can't see anything with my knowledge. I will write a report on this matter and submit it to the canonization province. β
"In this case, Mr. Kevin will bother." While saying polite words, he smiled: "So, does Mr. Kevin want to observe for a while, or go back now?" β
"Go back, it's not interesting to look any further." Kevin waved his hand casually, and then seemed to suddenly remember something: "That's right." I've heard...... This fantasia was defeated single-handedly by a teenager? β
ββ¦β¦ Let's just say that. Yulia thought for a moment and said, "But according to Brigadier General Cassius and the other guerrillas who participated in the battle, when the boy fought Fantasia alone, Fantasia was already in overload mode. How so...... It's a bit of a way to take advantage of his illness and ask for his life. β
"I see...... But even then, it's terrifying...... Fighting such a big guy ...... flesh," Kevin said, but in his heart he thought that if he liberated "that"...... "I'm very interested in him." β
"Unfortunately, that boy was not from Liber, but from the Empire. At the moment he is no longer in Liber. "But His Excellency the Brigadier General seems to have said that he will be back soon." β
"That's right...... Then when the time comes, I will bother Captain Yulia to introduce you...... I also want to meet this little hero with amazing energy. Kevin said with a hippie smile. Yulia thought about it and thought that the priest had only done it out of curiosity, so she agreed.

"Whew...... The chief, who always sends me troublesome tasks. After returning to the Great Church and the room that the rector had temporarily arranged for him, Kevin showed a relieved expression, "Whether it's the task of recovering the relics on the surface, or the task of solving the 'white face' secretly...... But this temporary "search" for the boy with wonderful powers......"
Kevin still remembers the message from his chief, Ain Sernat: "Kevin, there is also a personal additional commission from me during your mission to Liber. There was a teenager named Helriga Khottswill...... will appear during your stay in Libel. If you meet him, remember to complete the following things, but the details are all up to you. First ......"
"Father Kevin Graham." Kevin's thoughts were interrupted by a weak knock on the nun's door, "The rectory has something to look for you. β
"Okay. I'm coming. Taking a deep breath, Kevin pushed open the door and walked out slowly.
No one knows what lies beneath the hippie's smiling and frivolous exteriorβpain and contradictions, as well as the powerful, "cursed" power that exists, and his true identityβ
