44. A saint whose bonds of reason were cut off by jealousy.

“Everyone, calm down. Because I’m also thinking about it right now.”

The prince immediately responded to my words. It was a fairly sharp reaction.

“What?! Can’t this be resolved right away?! This noble Maximilian is now turning himself upside down?!”

“Wow, you’re half the size… It suits you well.”

“What?! Where is the peacock fluttering…!!”

It was definitely hectic because the prince and the duke were together.

In some ways, it seemed similar to me and the warrior.

I first gained momentum.

And he made a cold face.

“Why don’t you be quiet?”

Currently, I have the authority of a department representative and the enormous power of a third awakened person.

It was different from when I was a mercenary.

So is that so?

“Kuhm…”

“Hmm.”

In an instant, the surroundings became quiet.

Except for Constantine, the archmage, everyone looked at me and fell silent.

‘Phew, it’s finally quiet now.’

I first made the surroundings quiet.

Then he opened his mouth with a worried look on his face.

“Now, let’s think about it. First of all, the biggest problem is that the gallery’s survival is at risk.”

“Yes! That’s right!”

“No, my honor…”

“Yes, there is also Maximillian’s honor. Anyway, if the community disappears like this, who will benefit the most?”

First, we had to find the culprit. And in this case, all we had to do was select the person who would benefit the most from this crime.

“That’s it… The hero who is always criticized…”

“Hmph…! A hero?!”

“That’s right. It’s strange just that you’re not here now.”

After hearing what I said, everyone thought of a likely suspect.

Perhaps the thing I want to eliminate from the community the most is the hero who is no longer here. This was because he suffered the most damage from the community.

“No, I don’t have anything against the hero…”

“Ho-oh, I can’t believe a hero uses such a tactic…”

“I knew that would happen if you were a petty hero!!”

Everyone immediately cursed at the hero.

It seemed as if they had decided that the hero was the culprit.

However, I felt uncomfortable.

‘The hero is not that stupid.’

It was true that the hero had made a lot of wrong decisions recently. This was because my mentality was greatly shaken by the community attack.

Still, he wasn’t stupid.

Rather, he belonged to the quite smart axis.

But using a tactic like this that is bound to get caught?

‘No matter how damaged the warrior’s mentality is, this is not the case.’

And this was not the way of a warrior. This was too insidious for a warrior to have done it.

“Hero, you son of a bitch!!”

“This Iron Fist Dubalton will not sit still!!”

“How dare you touch me? Tell His Majesty…!”

For now, I quietly listened to them swearing.

It was because it always made me feel good to hear the warrior swearing. It was better to hear it in real voice.

‘Keuhum, good. First, let’s use this to insult the hero.’

Catching the culprit was also important. However, it was also very important to discredit the warrior.

I tried to use this crisis as an opportunity.

‘In fact, the community itself is disappearing. ‘Probably, all academy students will be angry.’

Nowadays, the community has become an essential part of the academy. It was almost like a modern smartphone.

But taking it away?

No matter how brave he is, he will not stay still.

I immediately looked at the personnel here. And gave one instruction.

“Good. Let’s spread the word that the hero is the culprit. That’s why we make the warrior stop doing this dirty thing himself.”

“Good! This Dubalton will take the lead!”

“Me too!! I’ll write about it all in other galleries too!”

“Hmm, I am too noble to do something like this…”

“Tsk tsk, so you can be impersonated.”

“What?!”

In any case, it could be seen that the problem had not yet been properly resolved. Still, I was able to get a justification to kick them out.

“Stop. Anyway, it’s resolved now, right? Get out of my house quickly.”

“Joe, can’t you stay a little longer? You haven’t even opened the gift I gave you yet.”

“Haha! Instead of that, should we at least go to Changgwan? I know a place where amazing dwarves are!”

“Go when they say nice things?”

I instantly made a cold expression. And then we really picked up the momentum again.

“Heh…!”

“Ah, I got it!”

“Uh, I’ll go quickly!”

Then everyone started leaving our house in an instant. This was because it was difficult to withstand the force of the 3rd Awakening.

The archmage Constantine also left our house without notice.

Oh, and Konstantin didn’t go out alone.

“Lucien? What are you doing? Come quickly.”

“No… over there…”

Until now, Lucien had quietly waited at our house. If anyone sees you, they will think you are hiding.

In fact, no one noticed her presence. Only Constantine felt it. As she hid her presence, no one noticed.

It was indeed the 3rd Awakening.

However, it was impossible for the great wizard Constantine.

He forcefully dragged Lucien away.

“Go and look at my assignment.”

“No… wait a minute…!”

“Why wait a minute? The landlord doesn’t want guests staying anymore. Quickly follow me.”

It seemed like Lucien wanted to be alone with me. So, I was hiding and hiding my presence.

But Constantine was oblivious. There wasn’t much of that either.

He just dragged Lucien, who didn’t want to go, with him.

He even used telekinetic magic to forcefully take Lucien away.

“I don’t want to go…!”

“Why are you like this today? Come quickly!”

Just like that, Lucien left our house with a very disgusted look on his face.

“Ahh…!”

‘If I had known you would be so disappointed, would I have told you to stay put?’

Of course, it was already in the past.

I stretched out with a happy face.

I finally felt like I could rest in peace.

But it seemed like God didn’t want me to rest.

Hwaaa!!

‘W-what…!!’

I could feel a tremendous force at that moment.

To be precise, it felt like an attack with enormous destructive power was aimed at me.

‘crazy…! Could it be that the hero made a surprise attack…?!’

That too was the power of a 3rd awakened person.

I quickly prepared for battle.

It seemed like something had happened.

***

Near the mercenary king’s house.

Behind the tree near the mansion, there was a being secretly looking at the Mercenary King’s house.

‘How dare you and Jace…!!’

It was Serena, a saint who had a hobby of watching over the mercenary king’s house.

In fact, she had quit this bad hobby. It was really hard, but I was able to get through it with hard work.

But something sudden happened.

Suddenly, I felt a huge presence heading towards the mercenary king’s house very quickly.

And that sign was one she knew.

‘Lucien…!!’

It was the presence of the elf princess Lucien.

I still remember her sitting affectionately with Jace. And even the laughter that made fun of her.

‘She must like Jace too!’

Should I say it’s a woman’s sense?

She was able to sense Lucien’s heart right away. Naturally, I felt a very great sense of crisis.

So, as soon as he sensed Lucien’s presence, he came straight to Jace’s house.

That was because the presence had disappeared from inside that house.

‘Ugh…! Lucien…!’

She had a face full of anger.

Lucien entered a space that she had not yet entered. Jealousy and anger quickly rose.

Moreover, Jace clearly said that he loved him.

It was a little better than Lucien, but that’s how she understood it.

But you hit your tail first…!

An unbearable feeling arose.

But she could barely contain her anger.

This was because I soon saw many academy students entering the mansion. I could bear it as long as Lucien wasn’t alone with Jace.

But as time passes…

‘Why isn’t it coming out?!’

Everyone came out of the mansion, but strangely, only Lucien did not come out.

‘Seo, it’s impossible for two of you to do something like that inside…!!’

At that moment, her bond of reason was broken.

Hwaaa!!

Before we knew it, a huge brightly shining bow had been created above the saint’s head.

It was like seeing a shining siege weapon.

The Goddess’ Bow technique could be said to be her special move.

The moment you let go of this bow, the mansion will fly away. This clearly contained the power of a 3rd awakened person.

But she didn’t have time to think about that.

Now in her mind, all she could do was Jace and Lucien doing things like that over and over again.

‘Oh, no! I couldn’t do it either…!!’

Soon the bow was ready to fire. Now all I had to do was fire this bow and get rid of that wicked Lucien.

But that was then.

“Let go of this! I’ll take care of it!”

“Why are you so angry?”

“Ha…! If it were you, I wouldn’t be angry… No, it’s okay.”

“No, what happened… Wait!”

A voice she had heard before rang out loudly.

It was clearly the voice of Lucien, who must be inside the mansion.

At that moment, the saint came to her senses.

‘Now, wait…! What have I done…!’

She immediately tried to destroy the goddess’s bow. Still, I was able to grasp the situation fairly quickly.

However, the door to the mansion opened and someone who was not supposed to appear appeared.

“Hero, you idiot…! Heh…!”

Before I knew it, it was Jace who took out his sword and came out.

As soon as he came out, he looked at the huge bow made by the saint.

Of course, the nearby Archmage and Lucien also saw her bow.

Soon the three of them closed their mouths.

And then he gave the saint a questioning look.

I wanted an answer from her about the current situation.

‘Oh, what should I do! ‘I need to come up with some excuse…!’

She quickly shook her head. I felt like this was the first time I had ever thought about it so urgently.

And she was able to come up with a pretty good answer.

Of course, she thought it was okay.

“Ji, something appeared above the house…”

At her words, the gazes of the three instantly went up.

I was trying to find something above my house.

Of course, there could be something above the mansion…

Woouuung-!!

“Well, that is…!!”

“Cannon, portal?”

“A portal has been created!”

Unbelievably, at exactly that moment, a large hole appeared above the mercenary king’s mansion.

To put it simply, a dimensional portal was created.

It was as if God was taking care of her.

The saintess looked bewildered. I couldn’t believe it.

‘Seo, really a miracle from God?’

And it wasn’t just her.

Before I knew it, Jace was also making the same expression as her.
