Stole the statue of the goddess.

We brought the statue of the goddess from the Baronial domain of Gilbert, not the original one from the Count of Albatea.

“…I’m even more confused because it’s so much easier to move than I thought.”

Eris let out a hollow laugh as she looked at the goddess statue (spoils of war) that was firmly placed in the basement of the count’s castle.

“That’s not so surprising, Miss Eris. This is one of the methods we’ve been thinking about for a long time.”

“Since long ago…?”

“Dahlia and other vampires have been studying ways to neutralize the statue of the goddess of Baron Gilbert Castle while going in and out through the dimensional gate of Baron Gilbert’s territory. I never thought of ‘bringing it’ like this.”

Chief Akamond chuckled, pointing to the black leather straps wrapped around the statue’s entire body.

“If the statue of the goddess is not a tree with roots but just a heavy statue, then it can be easily solved if you have the people, strength, and magic to safely move the statue.”

“Chief Secretary. Isn’t that blasphemous?”

I pointed to the leather strap wrapped around the statue of the goddess.

The shape felt very similar to when I played the leather ribbon against Silverite before, so I couldn’t erase the part that felt quite obscene.

“It may feel like blasphemy, but wasn’t it just a last resort to safely move the statue of the goddess?”

There was no hesitation on the face of Chief Acamond.

“I just did my best to move it ‘safely’. Even the goddess would nod her head at this level of sincerity.”

“It was true that I was able to steal the statue of the goddess intact thanks to the power of dimensional magic…”

In front of the statue of the goddess, a mandarin is stretched out.

After infiltrating the Baron Gilbert territory and opening a dimensional gate between it and Albatea, she ended up using up quite a lot of mana and collapsed from exhaustion.

“Hehehe, hehehe….”

But the smile never stops.

“After all, even a statue of a goddess is, hehe, a statue with divine power…!”

“That’s a blasphemous statement, but let’s move on.”

Although Inquisitor Mariel briefly reprimanded the Wise Mandarin for his curiosity, she too looked at the statue of Gilberte with a face that seemed to have cleared her mind – or perhaps had gained some kind of enlightenment.

“It is not the place called the chapel that is sacred, but the place where the statue of the goddess is sacred. That is what I realized.”

As Mariel said, the goddess statue is now radiating a gentle divine power.

Thanks to that, the release took a break for a while.

Even though Lilith was a priest of the Demon God, it was somewhat difficult for her to withstand the divine power emitted by another goddess statue while bearing the curse of the Demon King’s Army Seal.

“Baron Gilbert’s territory, there must be chaos. The statue of the goddess disappeared overnight.”

“You probably wouldn’t even know that vampires entered and left the chapel.”

I feel a little sorry for the people of Baron Gilbert.

And maybe I feel sorry for the people all over the world who will be confused because of this incident.

Evaporation of the statue of the goddess.

This could be seen as something like ‘the goddess has abandoned the Baron Gilberte’, and if this continues, it could be overinterpreted as ‘the goddess has abandoned humanity’.

Does that mean you would just carelessly steal the goddess statues of other territories?

‘report.’

Literally, a situation report.

‘If it’s a trash city where you can steal the statue of the goddess like Gilbert, then I have no qualms about taking the statue and using it.’

The city of Gilbert, where we stole the statue of the goddess, is a place that doesn’t need ‘looking’.

I can say this for sure because I lived there, and Eris, who was once an adventurer in Gilbert, agrees.

“So how do we use this now?…”

“Let’s just follow the assistant teacher’s thoughts.”

The vampire princess appeared behind me and lightly patted my back.

“Isn’t that the goddess statue you brought at your suggestion?”

“The ones you actually brought were Chief Acamond and the vampires, right?”

“But if it weren’t for your thoughts, we wouldn’t have even thought of ‘bringing’ the statue of the goddess. Even though we are less restricted by the statue.”

I was just suggesting something that anyone could think of, but I think it was like a huge wave of divinity that brought about a kind of ‘paradigm shift’ for them.

“How can I use it, Assistant Teacher?”

And now, with sparkling eyes, they are asking me how to use it.

Even if the Sage Mandarin or the Chief of Staff fleshes out the actual methodology, it is my role to lay the foundation for the plan.

“First of all, the most certain thing would be to throw it at ‘where the Demon King is’, right?”

“Throw it at the Demon King.”

“Yes.”

I no longer look at the statue of the goddess as a statue of the goddess.

“Just as the statue of the goddess has not moved, the Demon King has never appeared in the area where the statue of the goddess is located. Right?”

“That’s right. Those with the Demon King’s Seal are rendered powerless in front of the Goddess Statue.”

“The statue of the goddess became the center of the city, and of course, if they had tried to move it, they would have been criticized by many citizens. This also applies to the nobles who bought the land and built the buildings in the city.”

“That’s why no one tried to move it. Except when there was internal strife due to religious wars.”

“Yes. So, I think we should start ‘going out to preach’ now.”

What is evangelism?

Spreading the faith does not simply mean solemnly celebrating mass in a chapel, but also going out into the streets and preaching the gospel to non-believers.

“If the devil is an unbeliever, then it is only natural to preach right up to the devil’s house.”

“What if the statue of the goddess gets damaged?”

“You can confirm one thing by using one of the Goddess Statues. You can’t defeat the Demon King by dropping it directly on the Demon King’s Castle.”

But maybe that would be difficult?

“Mandarin. The difficulty in flying the goddess statue to the Demon King’s Castle is just a matter of physical distance, right?”

“Right?”

“Then is it possible to throw it somewhere other than the Demon King’s Castle?”

“Where are you going to throw it?”

“Battlefield.”

I unfolded the map myself and pointed to a certain location.

“If the Goddess Statue ‘landed’ in the place where the Demon King’s soldiers were most gathered, what would happen then?”

“……I think I need some magic power.”

The mandarin raises his hand.

“If it’s that far, it might be possible to send the Goddess Statue once more.”

“Okay. Mandarin, just send it-”

“If you fight and fight, you might be able to launch it…?”

The mandarin lies on the floor, thrusting his butt toward me.

“You need magic, huh, magic isn’t that hard.”

“Magic power is restored by stabbing the ground?”

“That’s not true, but I guess it’s a matter of mood….”

“I see.”

I climbed right onto Mandarin’s thigh and lowered my dick.

“I’ll pack it all in, so do your best.”

“Yeah, haang, that’s obvious…!!”

Wheeing.

Below the statue of the goddess, a circular magic circle began to glow.

* * *

That moment.

Kwaaah!!

Hundreds and thousands of demons run rampant across the grasslands.

Soldiers wearing armor fought against the demons with swords and shields, but they were often blown away like sheets of paper by the clubs of giant ogres that were at least 4 meters tall.

“Stop it! I said stop it!!”

The prince of the kingdom shouted, the veins rising in his neck.

“If this place falls, our kingdom is over!!”

Because there was nowhere else to retreat.

If the Demon King’s army takes control of this plain, the kingdom will now be forced to harvest crops only on the land where the statue of the Goddess is located.

The kingdom’s largest granary.

The moment this place is taken away, the kingdom will slowly starve to death before it can even fight the Demon King’s army.

“Hahahaha!”

Among the demons, a giant monster with a body size of 10 meters appeared in front of the prince, emitting a loud noise.

“Be afraid! Witness! The might of me, Commander of the Demon Legion, Kimaria!”

Chimera, a demonic beast with the head of a lion, the wings of a bat, walking on two legs like a lizardman, and the webbed feet of a frog.

Kimaria, the king of the synthetic demons and the commander of the demon corps, raises his foot and tramples a dozen soldiers, letting out a roar.

“Ugh…!”

The prince extended his sword forward.

His sword was half broken, but a glowing blue aura filled the empty space.

“It’s no use, Prince! How can you stop me when you’re not even a warrior of the Holy Sword!”

“The warrior of the Holy Sword is not here, but I am the prince of this kingdom!!”

The prince screamed, blood flowing from the wound on his head.

“This fight is being watched by the Goddess! I will never back down! For this kingdom, for all the people, and for the Goddess!!”

The prince never backs down.

But it is impossible for the prince’s will to turn the tide of the battle.

“Kuhahaha! It’s useless! [Light Sword Saint] Albatea is gone, so what’s the means for you to win-”

Flash.

Above the clouds, something sparkles.

The Demon Corps Commander raised his head at the strange reaction that seemed like some kind of magical reaction, or a distortion of space.

“Huh?”

Pa-ang!

Something falls through the dark clouds.

It has pure white wings-

“Goddess… statue?”

Kwa──ang!!

It crashed to the ground, creating a huge shock wave.

In the dust.

“Coolook, coolook…!”

“Ugh, eww!”

The moment the prince swung his sword, blew away the dust with the wind, and looked ahead.

There, a clean statue of the goddess, without any damage, was pointing forward with a benevolent smile.

and.

“Keep, ugh …

The seals engraved all over the bodies of the Demon King’s army, including the Demon King’s Army Commander, began to glow.

Sizzling.

Beyond just glowing, it was radiating heat as if it was burning in flames.

Their seals were mostly located on the pubic bone.

It was as if the genitals had been removed and sealed with the Demon King’s seal in the place where the genitals should have been.

“Hey, long live the goddess!!”

The prince ran towards the statue of the goddess and swung his sword with a glowing aura.

A statue of a goddess that suddenly fell from the sky.

With the power of the goddess, the humans’ counterattack began.
