85. I received a revelation from God.

That contagious disease was a disease that had never been seen on Earth. I’d never even heard of it.

Maybe it was a rare disease that only existed in Newpan.

But the princess had different thoughts.

“After the Abyss appeared, a disease like this that I had never seen before appeared. Probably, there must be a connection.”

“Ah…!”

I don’t know why I didn’t think of this.

On rare occasions, Abyss did something to spread a plague. I guess I was so focused on thinking about the hero that I forgot about it.

‘As expected, it’s quite outstanding, isn’t it?’

It wasn’t for nothing that I was recognized by everyone.

She quickly discovered the connection between this plague and the Abyss. He certainly seemed to have greater abilities than the prince.

Of course, now was not the time for admiration or anything like that.

‘So that disease is related to the Abyss?’

It wasn’t certain information. But it seemed very likely.

And this was a very serious problem.

‘The Abyss has spread a plague to Trier. ‘Why did you spread it?’

It was important that it spread to Trier.

And the most representative reason that comes to mind was the invasion of Trier.

‘No way… are you going to invade Trier?’

In fact, there were cases where the Demon King’s army invaded a city weakened by a plague.

However, Trier existed deep inland. This meant that it was not a position where the Demon King’s army could attack right away.

‘Well, it’s impossible unless you warp military units.’

Warping an army unit was impossible even for an archmage. Perhaps, it might be possible to gather around 100 archmages.

To put it simply, it was nonsense.

‘Then what is it?’

Unless it was an invasion, there was no particular reason that came to mind.

However, even the devil would not have done something like this just to kill time. There was definitely a reason.

‘Write… I’m sure there’s something there…’

It was when I was lost in thought.

Suddenly, I heard the princess’s voice next to me.

“You need to go closer and check. Follow me.”

“Ah, yes. I understand.”

I woke up to her voice. And then he nodded right away. There was no need to refuse.

I also wanted to see the situation up close.

‘Because I have antibiotics.’

However, was that appearance surprising?

“Hoo…!”

For the first time, she looked surprised. Even if you were a 3rd awakened person, you couldn’t help but be afraid of such an unknown disease.

But I immediately nodded with an expression that it was no big deal.

It will look quite interesting.

At that time, I heard a man’s voice nearby.

“No. Her Royal Highness.”

However, it was a fairly familiar voice.

‘This voice…?’

“Ha, are you against it again? Lord Baine?”

Soon a man wearing a robe stepped forward.

Then he took off his robe in front of me.

Then a familiar face appeared before me.

Although he was handsome, his somewhat mean-looking face was quite impressive.

“It’s been quite a while. Jace Allen.”

“Fritz Wein?”

“Hoo, I thought you would forget that you have become famous these days…”

It was like that.

The person in front of me was quite a celebrity.

It was because he was a member of the warrior party like me.

Knight of Flame. Fritz Wein. That was his name.

However, I did not have a good relationship with him. No, it was correct to see it as bad.

This was because among the members who hung out with the warrior and harassed me, the man in front of me was the leader.

‘Sweet, I’m seeing a face I don’t want to see again.’

Of course, the relationship was completely different from before.

At that time, I was of the lowest status. But things have changed now.

He became the king of mercenaries and the head of the special department. Rumors about me were also spreading little by little beyond the Kingdom of Aachen and throughout the world.

Before I knew it, I could see that my relationship with him had reversed.

I didn’t bother to answer what he said. He was far inferior to a warrior. There was no need to deal with it.

“Let’s go. Her Royal Highness.”

“Hmm? Do you know each other?”

“We’re not on very good terms…”

“Oh…! That’s right!”

Did you like what I said?

A smile appeared on the princess’s face. It was quite a beautiful smile.

“Wow, who would say something like that openly in front of the Knight of Flame?”

At first glance, it seemed like he and Fritz were not on very good terms.

‘So, Fritz is an aristocrat.’

It seemed that the investigator dispatched by the noble faction was Fritz.

Well, there was no way that only the royal family would be interested in such an important issue. It seemed like the aristocratic faction had also dispatched an investigator to get the spoonful.

Anyway, as the princess and I’s faces became brighter, Fritz’s face became harder.

The princess and I were blatantly ignoring him right now.

If I didn’t get angry, that was even weirder.

Probably, a warrior would have gotten angry right away. Maybe he would have drawn his sword first because he was ignored.

But he was different from the warrior.

“Anyway, you shouldn’t approach them! If you do it wrong, you might catch their disease!”

Instead of getting angry, he skillfully changed the topic of conversation. He looked more like a politician than a knight.

The princess had no choice but to talk to him.

“Um… I know. But I’m a knight! A knight needs to take care of the weak!”

“But she is also a princess.”

“ugh. What does it matter!”

“It matters. Her Royal Highness’s body is not just hers. As a member of the royal family of the Kingdom of Aachen…”

“Stop…! I don’t want to hear it!”

“Her Majesty the Princess! You must listen!”

Strangely, Yennefer emphasized being a knight rather than being a princess. It seemed like there was some pride in that.

Anyway, if this continues, we’ll just be arguing all day.

I shook my head. That was also why I hated Fritz.

‘Anyway, if you talk too much…’

I showed it through my actions.

“I will look at it first.”

“Hmm? What did you say?”

“Jace Allen?”

I ignored both questions. And then I walked into the alley.

Soon Fritz’s panicked voice was heard.

“Wait! Where are you going?!”

“I’m not a member of the royal family anyway, so it doesn’t matter, right?”

“Pfft…!”

I immediately refuted using Fritz’s words. I wasn’t the ignored person I used to be.

Before I knew it, not only my military power but also my political power(?) had increased significantly.

Anyway, after leisurely refuting, I continued walking.

Soon a dark alley began to welcome me. And at the end of the alley, I found a group of people moaning.

“Keuuk…!”

“Sa, save me…!”

“Just kill me…!”

A cry for life and a cry for death were heard at the same time. You can see that it is that painful.

‘The condition is very bad. ‘It’s been quite a while since I’ve been sick.’

There were definitely some things that could be seen only if you looked closely.

I got closer to them. I shouldn’t have done this in the first place, but I trusted in antibiotics and approached it.

‘Shall we at least have a conversation first?’

“Keuuk…!”

“Please… help me…!”

Of course, not everyone was in a state where they could talk. To that extent, the people in front of me were struggling in pain.

However, it was not that there was no way.

‘You can use Great Hill.’

It was one of the advanced magics I recently learned from my teacher.

Using this definitely reduced the pain. This is because, as a high-level magic, it also has an anesthetic effect.

In addition, it amplifies metabolism and revitalizes the body.

Simply put, it meant making it possible for even dying people to have brief conversations.

I immediately extended my hand towards the man in front.

Advanced magic required quite a bit of concentration.

I prepared to use magic with a focused face.

But that was then.

“Stop!”

“What are you doing now?!”

An urgent voice came from behind.

‘Tsk, am I still in the way?’

It was the voice of princess knight Yennefer and Fritz.

Seeing as she had followed me this far, it seemed like the princess had won.

Anyway, they both looked at me with shocked faces.

Now I was trying to touch a man with a stroke. It was a surprising sight to anyone who saw it.

‘Oh… this is why I came alone…’

“No matter how much you are the mercenary king, you are still dangerous!”

“Are you out of your mind? What if it spreads to me too?”

Both of them were vehemently opposed to my actions.

No matter how much the princess supported the approach, this seemed a bit harsh.

I looked worried for a moment.

‘Well, these are probably the people who got caught in the early stages. ‘It’s different from Dubalton.’

The condition was even worse than that of Dubalton. He looked almost on the verge of death. It was clear that these people were caught in the early stages.

‘Then, we will be able to find out the path of occurrence…’

Maybe I didn’t catch it from someone else, but I was the first to get infected. This was very important.

‘We need to know how he spread this disease.’

Only then can we prevent it and create a cure.

I quickly turned my head for a moment.

And I came up with a suitable excuse.

‘The princess is also famous for her deep faith. This is what I’m aiming for.’

As I said before, the princess’s deep religious beliefs were very famous. Even the church supported her.

And I decided to take aim at this point.

Soon an excuse came out of my mouth.

“I received a revelation in a dream yesterday.”

“Hmm? Revelation?”

Coincidentally, I had actually had a strange dream. Because of that, I thought I was out of luck.

It was a dream in which a white lump was giving me orders, but it was not a very pleasant dream.

‘What did you say? ‘Did you tell me to save the world?’

To be exact, it was a dog dream, but it was a dog dream that made me feel bad.

‘Why should I save the world? it’s crazy? I can’t wait to get back to Earth.’

However, it was a good material to use in the current situation.

That’s why I was able to come up with an excuse right away.

“What bullshit?”

I ignored Fritz’s words. Here, all you had to do was target the princess.

“I still remember it vividly. He told me to save those poor people.”

“Really?”

“Yes. And he said he would bless me.”

“Blessing?”

“He said it was a blessing that he would never get sick for a while.”

In order to say this blessing, I put a lot of flesh on the dream.

‘I’m making up excuses in advance.’

If this is the case, the day I don’t get sick alone won’t be seen as strange. Maybe they would praise him as a blessed person.

I thought it was a pretty good excuse.

Of course, Fritz made a dumbfounded face.

“Are you telling me to believe that?”

Naturally, he didn’t believe my excuse. In fact, I didn’t think I would believe it either.

But the princess was different. Her religious faith could not even be compared to Fritz’s.

Soon a surprised voice came out of her mouth.

“You must have received revelation from God!”

I smiled slightly at the sound of her voice. As expected, I thought she would be fooled.

“A revelation from God?”

“That’s right! her…! Maybe it’s because I went to the academy with the saintess! It’s clear that God has been keeping an eye on you!”

She even added flesh to my excuse.

This certainly seemed like something plausible.
