The origins of the Templars date back to Antiquity, when humanity was still weak.

Warcraft, aliens, natural disasters, man-made disasters...... Every conceivable calamity enveloped humanity, and it was often unfortunate for a small individual in those days to go to the temple to meet the gods.

Against this backdrop, there is a group of people who walk on the pilgrimage path and provide free protection to the pilgrims from death, even if it puts them in danger.

In recognition of her piety, the Goddess of Light incorporated her into the Church's system, taking the name Templar.

In the years that followed, the Templars were the most powerful force in the Church, always charging ahead and retreating, no matter what enemy they faced.

For such a unit to enter, it is natural that it must have a certain strength, and at the same time, the church will not cut corners on their equipment.

Whether it is fighting spirit or magic power, it will be weakened to a certain extent when it touches this armor.

It was because of its existence that Adolf was not very worried about the sturdy to take the blow, but ......

"Boom~"

With a loud bang, Adolf was knocked out of the way, and with his keen hearing, he felt it.

Beneath the deafening movement, there was a slight cracking sound.

Disintegrate? What are you kidding, unless it is a Grandmaster's attack, my armor will not shatter with a single blow.

Adolf stood still, looking back at Joshua in surprise, his fingertips still slightly disgusted, no doubt that the blow had come from him.

"This skill...... Tsk~ Some gods are inferior when they are not gods. ”

This was the first time Juno had watched the Moon Sword, and he had commented on the strongest demigod who created it.

At the beginning of the design, this Moon Picking Sword had the possibility of replacing magic power with fighting spirit and changing the structure of magic into combat skills, otherwise Joshua would not have been able to shatter Adolf's armor so easily.

Joshua also knew this kind of thing, although he thought that as long as he gave himself time, he could modify the Moon Picking Sword to achieve such an effect, but the current few days were definitely not enough.

Even if a similar effect is forcibly used, the final result is nothing more than a tiger that cannot be an anti-dog.

However, according to Lilith, there is no record of the strongest demigod ever using magic.

It's really a mountain and a mountain high.

Joshua sighed and turned his gaze to Adolf.

The Exorcism Mark can theoretically be regarded as an elite level, but because of the single function of divine arts, it is difficult to defeat the enemy in the same realm, but this kind of thing is always an exception for geniuses.

"I heard your flame is blue."

Adolf wrapped his fighting qi around his body, and although the back of the armor was subtle, it did produce a crack.

"It's too cruel to cleanse Cangyan, I don't want to use him on innocent people."

"Then if I change my perspective, even if you don't use weapons and magic skills, you can beat me?"

“……”

Joshua was really not able to answer such a question, and the orange-red flames turned into the shape of a knight's sword in his hand, but it was also an answer by default.

"Bell~"

Adolf adjusted his mentality, and then immediately rushed forward, with the previous preparation, he already had a defense, to ensure that Joshua would not be easy if he repeated the old trick, but this time he guessed wrong.

If climbing the stars and picking the moon is just a trick, and the main function is to deter the opponent, then the next step is to expand this part of the advantage and defeat Adolf with a hard bridge.

Victory never overcame Joshua's purpose, and proving his strength would defuse the crisis.

Joshua calmly analyzed the situation, and when all the superfluous distractions were gone, Joshua saw that this "duel" was nothing more than a cold four calculations.

Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and finally the answer.

It's easy to understand, it's convenient and fast, and it's even a bit less human.

"Bell~"

The clash of weapons arose, but this time it was Joshua's attack, which also began to suppress Adolf with sheer force with the same Templar sword skills.

Obviously a magician, but with the blessing of the power of original sin, he has a physique that surpasses that of a Douqi cultivator, and the ground under Adolf's feet, who refused to retreat under repeated attacks, cracked one after another.

Won't you give it back? It's good to feel the gap between us more fully.

The opponent's insistence not only did not cause Joshua to be impatient, but instead inspired his appreciation, Joshua did not realize that his "perspective" had begun to look down on Adolf.

What kind of look is that.

It was precisely because of the head-on enemy that Adolf could see Joshua's eyes clearly at this time, and naturally felt the coldness in it for the first time.

It is said that the eyes are the windows of the soul, and they can capture the inner emotions of the other person.

Between the transformation of joy, anger and sorrow, people's hearts must be filled with some waves, whether they can capture this wave depends on their ability.

But Joshua's love is very different, if other people's hearts are a puddle of water, and if they are affected, they will ripple, then Joshua's heart is a frozen lake.

The ice at the top of the lake blocked everything on the surface of the lake, hiding the infinite waves in his mind, making it impossible for others to judge his thoughts.

If you can't judge, you don't know, and the unknown will bring mystery and ...... Fear.

"With such power, do you believe my words?"

“……”

Adolf couldn't answer, at this time he was holding on to this knight's sword made of pure magic with a fighting spirit, and he had done his best, and the slightest distraction would lead to defeat.

However, this also shows the strength and weakness of the two sides.

Manifesting magic in this form is simply not something that a magician below the legendary level can do.

Out of the corner of Adolf's eyes, he glanced at the steel sword that was inserted to the side, if the flames that clashed with him at this time were attached to the sword, the weapon in his hand might have been broken in two by now.

[There was determination in Adolf's eyes, which was the determination to kill the person in front of him even if he died on the spot.

Joshua is starting to get a little interested, and for such a hard bone, throwing it with broken limbs to a group of people with special hobbies to enjoy it slowly, the picture must be beautiful. 】

Day, I didn't expect your thick-eyed fate text to be such a plug-in.

Even Joshua, who transformed all negative emotions into the power of original sin, was almost broken by his own plug-in at this moment.

At this time, Joshua was extremely glad that he had crossed over, otherwise there would be some kind of scourge in this world.

But what about the inexplicable killing intent in Adolf's eyes.

If it's just a test, then it's a little too serious.

"Stop, don't fight anymore."

Doris didn't know that the future was near here, and with the strength of the grandmaster, she came to the middle of the two for the first time and set up the attack of the two.

Although his face was unhappy, he didn't let them go to the dance studio to fight.

"Adolf, as a knight, against a sick patient who has just recovered from his injuries, is this the credo of the Templars on this side of Emerald?"

Doris was also a Templar, whether she held a position in the Papal Palace, or the reprimands of the high-ranking knights to the low-ranking knights, which made it difficult for Adolf to refute.

However, he didn't seem to respect Doris, and left with a cold snort.

It's no wonder that if he stays a little longer, it's not sure who will clean up whom.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen, but luckily I came in time, otherwise ......"

Doris explained that many members of the Order have said that Adolf has been a little suspicious lately.

At first, Doris didn't take it to heart, after all, she had to face the sages of the Dark Moon who might attack.

Unexpectedly, Adolf was suspicious of Joshua's head.

"Father Joshua begs your forgiveness for the gifted nature you have shown...... Even if you look at the entire history of the empire, it is a relatively rare figure. ”

[Rare? Scolding who is rare! 】

Doris's words startled the Destiny text, as if he existed only to provoke Joshua's desire to complain.

"Tsk~ Whether you are my high priest or the god of the goddess of light, that guy is an offensive, if this is my believer, then I would have been burned to death by the heavenly fire."

Juno's grumbling was heard, and although she was not an evil god, she agreed that mortals should have respect for gods.

This is the source of faith, the foundation that cannot be shaken, and Juno at this time resides in Joshua's body, and disrespect for Joshua is disrespect for Juno.

There is a penalty for disrespecting God.

"And how is the great Lord Juno going to punish Adolf?"

Joshua dealt with it casually, and even if Juno made a decision, Joshua would agree, but he would not immediately carry it out.

After all, Joshua didn't say when it would be executed.

["I've heard that there is a way to punish others, how about crushing his life with giant pincers and feeding it into his mouth little by little? ”】

The vicious voice sounded again, different from the previous words that were full of malice, and now there was a little more eagerness.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother with a mortal."

Although Juno was willing to punish Adolf, Joshua's approach was ...... When the cultists see it, they will also shout big brother.

Thinking about it, it can only be as if.

"That's a thank you for the kindness of Lord Luna."

["It's really boring, I guess I was joking about the joke just now."] ”】

Is Issei kidding? In other words, 90% of this guy is serious!

Juno was a little skeptical at this moment if she had made the right choice to choose Joshua, but looked at the mark on the back of Joshua's hand.

I don't know about other gods, Juno, but I can be one of the oldest gods, and the Church of Light has been able to develop to this point and has a close connection with the vision of the goddess of light.

In the long passage of time, the Church of Light has not been without days of decay, but there are always people of God who have led the church to prosper.

For the sake of the revival of the church, the goddess of light really does not look at character and faith, and gives her strength as long as she has the ability.

From this perspective, it is indeed possible that the goddess of light may have given strength to Joshua in this extraordinary time.

"Wait, extraordinary times?"

Juno's mind paused here, as if a corner of her memory had been dug out, and she sensed a gap in her memory.

A memory that must never be forgotten, but Juno has forgotten it at this time.

I don't know if it was because there was no such memory when it was separated from the Void Moon, or if it was gradually worn away in the thirty years of sealing.

Juno lost some of her important memories.

"Juno, what's wrong with you?"

"I ...... No, nothing. ”

Juno had forgotten what it was, but she had the impression that the Goddess of Light seemed to be dealing with it, if it was him...... There should be no problem.

"Adolf has been a little suspicious lately? Is this affected in some way? ”

Joshua sensed that Juno seemed to be troubled in some way, but as a veteran worker, it was good for Joshua to do what was at hand.

The suffering of the gods is not his turn to worry, after all, there is no reason in this world for a maid to feel sorry for the young lady.

Compared to Juno, Joshua was even more worried about the possible arrival of the Darkmoon Sage.

"This ......"

Doris was visibly hesitant when she mentioned Adolf, she seemed to know something, but she didn't want to talk about it.

"Inconvenient?"

"Not really, it's just that I don't think we should be suspicious of our companions for the sake of some news, Adolf is just a little anxious, and we shouldn't ...... for this little thing"

Who understands what you say.jpg

Joshua now finally knows the necessity of the human completion plan, and now that all the people are riddlers, how can this church be done well.

"Adolf has been seen roaming the forests outside of Montenegro these days, and although he himself insists that he is investigating some invading shadow, he is not bad at all, but after a few times, he has not gained anything at all."

Doris thought about it again and again, but she still told some of the rumors she had heard these days.

It is said that Doris was not the only one who saw these things, but Joshua was in a state of cultivation during that time, so he was not aware of it.

"I'm sorry, please forget about today, I will reprimand Adolf when I go back to make sure that today's incident does not happen, and ask Father Joshua not to tell the Holy Maiden about it, he is just too young to ruin his future because of his honesty."

Doris is still pleading for Adolf, and if it is not the same reason for the Templars, Doris is very willing to care about this junior.

"What a stupid woman, who just reprimanded Adolf and now pleads in front of you, this kind of offending people on both sides, should she be said to be a genius?"

Juno said disdainfully, but if Doris did one less thing, she would win the favor of one of Joshua and Adolphus.

But in such a situation, neither of them should be thankful that they were not disgusted.

Joshua agreed for Lilith's sake, but when Doris turned away, he began to think about the current situation.
