Chapter 179: Reasons to Not Be an Avenger

"Sand bandits?"

Cheruth was stunned for a moment, but soon remembered what she had heard in the town about the curse spread about the attack on the town of Rook by the bandits, so she had to gather the priests in the surrounding towns.

"I don't know, the task we received didn't explain the cause and effect, but it just said that the tribe can't spare manpower because of the attack of a group of demonic beasts, so I hope we can ask the human light sacrifice to go to the tribe to treat a strange curse for them. ”

"Oh, that's ......," Raphael nodded, "It seems to be very dangerous here in the Southwest Desert during this time, I wonder if there will be any connection between the strange curse that befell the Sural tribe and the curse in Rook Town." ”

Cheruth looked at Raphael's sacrificial robes, pursed her lips, and spoke with some hesitation.

"Raphael, you are ...... It's a sacrifice of the Solan Cult, right? It's okay to go it alone with us if you don't respond to the call of the church?"

"It's okay, there are a lot of other sacrifices working hard in Luke Town, even if I don't go, it's just one less pair of hands, but listen to what you said, the Sural tribe also needs sacrifices but no one can find it, isn't it, many curses will have the characteristics of increasing over time, if the treatment time is delayed because of going to Luke Town, and as a result, the people who could have been treated cannot be treated, then it will be against the light doctrine that we believe in. ”

Although she had always looked so natural, Raphael's words and her expression were all the more real because of it.

"Even if I will be blamed by the circuit church, as long as I can heal more people with my ability, then it is what I think is the right thing to do. God has mercy on the world, and as Solan believers, responding to the desires of those who desire salvation is the best way for us to fulfill God's teachings. ”

Looking at Raphael, who had his hands folded and a pious face, Chelus couldn't help but feel a strange emotion in her heart.

Solan Cult, the name of Solan originated from the legends of the mainland, and the pair active in the ancient mythological era can be regarded as the most famous brothers in history - the elder brother Solan Duke, the god of fire, and the younger brother Solan Brand, the god of light.

The sect established in the name of these two god brothers naturally inherited its teachings from the dual beliefs of the god of fire and the god of light. The god of fire burns out the evil in the world, and the god of light purifies the souls of the world, no matter which side it is, it is quite a positive and beautiful doctrine.

This can be seen from Raphael, for this road dementia, Cheruth went from being vigilant to relaxing at the beginning, and then unconsciously being able to talk to her and tease her very often...... Although the other party is a member of the Solan Divine Cult, and it is even possible that she will not hesitate to be an enemy of herself when she knows her identity, but Cheruth has to admit that she really can't hate it, no, she can't help but have a good impression of this simple, kind and somewhat confused girl.

This feeling is amazing, on the one hand, because she is ultimately on the opposite side of the Solan Cult, and Cheruth actually hopes that Raphael is a woman with a bad personality or hypocrisy, so that even if she becomes an enemy, there will be no psychological burden, and on the other hand, looking at Raphael, who is really worried about those who are suffering because of the unknown curse, Cheruth feels a little ashamed of herself for having this thought.

In fact, the Solan Divine Cult on the continent of Areth is really not like in many novels that Cerus had read in her previous life, with the name of the first sect in the continent, a righteous gentleman who talks about it, but hides filth in private. The Solan Divine Cult has been inherited since the founding of the Douqi Era, and although it is impossible for the sect to be free of any fallacies, there has never been a scandal that will really shake the image of the righteousness and sanctity of the Divine Cult. It is precisely because of this that the Solan Cult enjoys such a reputation on the mainland, and even if it suddenly used forbidden art to exterminate the Nolan tribe back then, most of the people would easily accept the official explanation issued by the Cult, and instead of questioning the arbitrariness of the Cult, they would instead list the Nolan tribe as taboo.

Although Cheruth as a soul traveler does not have so much sense of belonging to the Nolan clan she was born in, but after her rebirth, her biological parents are both Nolan, and the Solan Cult has been chasing and killing the remaining Nolan survivors including her endlessly after creating the Nolan tragedy that year, so even if Cheruth is not as eager for revenge as other Nolans, she has never had a good impression of the Solan Cult, the first sect in the continent.

With such a mentality, although Cheruth did not pay special attention to the Solan Cult's every move, when she heard all kinds of news about the Solan Cult from others, it was a lie to say that she was calmly understanding a little bit and did not make malicious speculation in her heart and secretly find faults, but even so, Cheruth had to admit that in addition to the unreasonable implementation of the extermination policy against the Nolan family, the Solan Cult played almost a positive role in other things.

It's really uncomfortable to be listed as an evil mortal enemy by an organization that everyone thinks is the embodiment of justice, and even identifies with herself, which is one of the important reasons why Cheruth rarely thinks about revenge on the Solan Cult as a Nolan. Especially after hearing from Butler about his surviving people in the Kells Rebellion two years ago about the unscrupulous revenge of his people, Cheruth wavered for the first time about her Nolan position.

Whether it is hypocrisy or fame, the so-called teacher is famous. Most people in the world will hope that what they do has a legitimate reason to be recognized by themselves and preferably by others, from this point of view, Cheruth is actually quite envious of her own slightly second-class people, they don't have to care about justice or not, they just need to follow the revenge in their hearts, but for her who is not limited to the identity of the Nolan clan in her heart, this kind of open-mindedness gained by experiencing a life and death crossing rebirth has become a kind of bottom line for her at this time.

As a member of the Nolan clan, it is difficult not to be hostile to the Solan Cult...... But it was always difficult for Cheruth to find any reason other than to protect herself to convince herself to be the enemy of what the people of the world considered to be right. Maybe she can pretend to be open-minded and not be blinded by hatred, only she knows in her own heart that she just hasn't been psychologically prepared...... Even in battle, she doesn't want to be seen as the evil side that must be exterminated.

She is not a saint who can only believe in her own path and is scolded for being weak in her heart. In the final analysis, she is just an ordinary person who hopes that her life can be more exciting, an ordinary person who still dreams of becoming a hero after living for more than 40 years in two lifetimes, and a pseudo-middle two who pursues a lifestyle of laughter and anger and unfettered and thinks she is handsome, but deep down she still cares about the opinions of the people around her.

With this mood, Cheruth looked at Raphael's gaze more and more subtle and contradictory, she really didn't understand what kind of inside story had happened back then, which would make a sect organization that could cultivate such a simple and kind girl sacrifice hate their Nolan family so much.

“...... Now, Raphael, you heard about the ...... fourteen years ago in the Solan Cult That thing?"

The world calls the Nolan extermination of the tribe fourteen years ago the "Demon Extermination Incident", and Cheruth herself can't say this as if the Nolan people are treated as pests.

Raphael tilted his head.

"Is Cheruth referring to the battle against the Nolans led by Bishop Eric and Captain Red fourteen years ago?"

Battle?Chelus pouted, and according to the description she had heard from Herlan who had adopted her, it was probably not a battle but a massacre.

Bishop Eric, and Head Red...... The head of the regiment must be the leader of the Knights Templar, right?Chelus secretly remembered these two names, she had no interest in seeking revenge, but it never hurt to know the enemies or potential shady things she might face in the future.

"Well, that's, uh, the battle...... Do you know why the Solan Divine Church suddenly attacked the Nolan clan who had been living in seclusion in the middle of the continent and had no quarrel with the world? The history of the Nolan clan's existence on the mainland is not short, even if it is suspected that the Nolan clan is the descendants of demons, shouldn't they start investigating first? But back then, the actions of the Solan Divine Cult were very sudden, and they were even ...... It is said that even the children of the Nolan clan have not spared, is there really any reason why the Nolan clan must be destroyed?"

Although she just wanted to find out some information, but for some reason, looking at Raphael's cute face without the slightest malice, Cheruth couldn't help but ask in an unexpected and straightforward way.

In fact, she would have liked to hear some high-sounding reasons from Raphael, even if not for Raphael himself, but at least to strengthen her resolve to stand out from the Solan Cult.

However, to Cheruth's surprise, Raphael was neither suspicious of Cheruth's slightly agitated tone, nor was he in a hurry to defend the Solan Cult.

"Hmm...... Yes, it is, and sure enough, to an outsider like Cheruth, Bishop Eric's approach is a little unconscionable......"

For the first time, Raphael's pretty face, which always had a reassuring smile, showed a slightly dull look, and it seemed as if he was feeling a little guilty.

Seeing Raphael like this, Chelus couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"You're ...... Do you sympathize with the Nolans?"

“...... It's strange, it's clear that the Nolans, who are the sacrifices of the Cult of God, and the Nolans who are the descendants of the demons should be enemies," Raphael stuck out his tongue in embarrassment," I used to be a little curious.,I have privately investigated some things about the Nolan clan.,Although it's a demon descendant.,But it seems that the Nolan clan has never done anything unreasonable on the mainland.,In fact, until now, there are many people in the sect who feel that the Divine Cult used forbidden arts to crusade against the Nolan clan under the auspices of Bishop Eric.,It's a bit excessive.。 ”

"So, that means you think the Solan Cult's crusade against the Nolan clan is wrong?"
