F-class adventurer of suspicious rumors

‘It’s a pain in the ass. It’s dismissal to sneak out once.’

You can’t be a criminal anyway. Moreover, running away from such a big issue may raise unnecessary suspicion. Hyeonjun calmly organized his thoughts and spoke to the priest.

“If priest Deliana doesn’t come by tomorrow, I will go to Bentinga.”

“It’s okay if you don’t make such a hasty decision. It could take a little longer.”

“There’s nothing good about dragging it on for too long.”

Hyunjoon made a decision. In my heart, I want to feign illness and sit-in at the temple, but it is absurd that I do not suffer from a fatal disease and receive treatment for a long time at the temple because of common sense. If there were this many priests, even those who were on the verge of dying would be able to play in one day. It’s also not good to look like you’re looking at the liver too much. One day is enough to procrastinate. They would have already guessed. That’s probably why he walked away so calmly.

The priest lowered his head apologetically and stood up with a smile.

“Come to think of it, didn’t you say you got a room at an inn? Shall I bring my luggage?”

“No, it’s just my body and gear.”

“Well then, get some rest until tomorrow. Let me know if you need anything.”

“All right.”

Leaving the priest behind, I left the room. The morning sunlight warmly illuminates the hallway. Children’s cries are heard in the distance.

“Ugh···.”

My head feels like it’s going to explode, and I can’t help but sigh. Someone spoke to Hyeon-joon who shook his head.

“Is there a problem?”

“Little boy.”

“Don’t call me a kid.”

“If you win, you’re calling me an apprentice paladin, right?”

Edelia turned her head away with a pouty face. When I see it, I smile.

“So what?”

“The kid doesn’t have to know.”

I patted Idelia’s head wearing a hat and walked to the courtyard. I want to catch my breath for a moment.

“It’s a duel!”

“suddenly?”

“If I win, please call me Idelia Apprentice Paladin.”

“Then if I win, will you call me brother?”

“no!”

“Wow, that’s really too much.”

Hyunjoon smiled and moved on. Perhaps he was trying to cheer up Hyeon-joon in his own way.

“Then I will fight until you call me brother.”

“You can call me Uncle at any time.”

“aha? you are just I won’t make you cry again!”

“Cry! I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“Don’t worry. Let me remind you soon.”

Hyeon-jun walked lightly, giggling at Edelia who was chasing him. It’s definitely cheery. After that, the second duel between the apprentice paladins, which took place in the courtyard, opened its splendid curtain amidst cheers from numerous children and priests as spectators.

“Call me brother!”

“No way!”

Of course, Hyeonjun had already won. No matter how much Idelia came to her senses, she didn’t buy it at a store like Hyeon-jun, and her swordsmanship couldn’t improve in one day. Hyun-Jun deliberately gave Edellia a chance to attack for the sake of the audience, but he couldn’t pierce Hyun-Jun’s solid swordsmanship. Idelia had already allowed several attacks on Hyun-jun’s wooden sword, but she did not give up.

“ha ha ha! Is that all!”

“Yap!”

“Cheer up, sister!”

“sister! We have to win!”

“Here! you can do it!”

Excited spectators began cheering for their apprentice paladin. With her eyes burning, Idelia rushed in.

“It’s soft! That much can’t reach me!”

Hyeonjun, who was absorbed in the role of the villain, laughed out loud, deflected Idelia’s sword, hit the shield, and stepped back.

“You are weak. Your movements are clearly visible. How long are you going to do this pointless fight? You know you can’t win, right? Now admit defeat and call me big brother!”

“no! You are not lost until you give up!”

“sister!”

“Here! Take it down!”

“No, even the priest can’t do that.”

Leaving Hyeon-jun’s muttering behind, Idelia dug in once more. Seeing his serious eyes, Hyeonjun also corrected his posture.

“good! sister!”

“Haap!”

“Yeah, no.”

Hyeonjun’s wooden sword blocked Idelia’s wooden sword and dug into the outside of the shield, stopping right in front of his side. Idelia’s wooden sword was caught in the cross guard.

“end!”

“…”

There was only silence in the courtyard. This is the result of this petty guy not being able to read the atmosphere and winning. It is no different from when the villain struck Red in the chin with a back kick and knocked him down at the timing of using a special move at a Jeondaemul performance that children are watching.

“Boo!”

“Where is this!”

“Yeah, boo all you want. It just highlights my victory.”

With his arms wide open, Hyeon-jun proudly passed in front of the audience.

“Boo!”

“No, even the priest can’t do that.”

Seeing the booing priest, Hyeonjun murmured. A battle priest who begged to stop Idelia at the entrance of the temple.

“Keuugh, next time definitely!”

“okay! I will win next time!”

“Wait and see! You scoundrel!”

“ha ha ha! Go for it!”

The excited audience eventually couldn’t stand it and rushed at Hyeon-jun. Of course, they were all kids, so they weren’t threatening at all.

“Slow!”

No matter how hard the children ran, they couldn’t catch Hyeon-jun. The encirclement was made by short children anyway, so they ran and jumped over it.

“Ha ha ha ha ha!”

“Run away!”

“catch!”

The door suddenly opened in front of Hyeon-jun, who was running around the courtyard to avoid the children.

“Is there a problem?”

Zilenai came out looking bewildered. He seems to have recovered well, his complexion returned and his movements seemed to be fine. It must have come out when it was noisy outside.

“Priest! Grab it!”

“yes?”

Zilenai questioned Hyeon-jun in front of him, just as the children said. Hyeon-jun moved flexibly, using his superhuman reflexes and flexibility, gave him two coats of paint in an instant and tried to get out of Jillenai’s side.

“Ugh!”

However, Jillenai’s hand stretched out like a flash and grabbed Hyeon-jun’s collar. Surprised, Hyeon-joon turned around to see that red aura shimmered through Zilenai’s body.

“Ah! Foul! It’s against the rules!”

“Got it! You scoundrel!”

“Ahh! You don’t have to go this far!”

Jillenai murmured in dismay at Hyeon-jun, who had become invisible to the children.

“What kind of situation is this…?”

“No, priest, isn’t it too much to use divine power anyway?”

“That’s it, sorry. It digs in too sharply, so I stop without realizing it.”

Hyeonjun grunted as he ran his hand through his tousled hair. I was attacked by children and rolled on the floor, so I was covered in a lot of dust. I washed it in the morning and it’s time to wash it again.

“Thank you for playing with the children.”

“No, what?”

“I didn’t play with you, I guess we played together.”

“Uh huh. A little kid interrupting what adults are saying.”

“With that appearance, don’t you have the right to call me a kid?”

At Idelia’s words, Hyeon-joon silently brushed off the dust. There is no right word to say. Cowardly hitting them with facts, let’s be fair and fair with agitation and fabrication.

“I’m glad you got better soon though.”

“If it took a day, it took a long time. Did the children get along better than that?”

From noble mtl dot com

“yes. I heard from another priest that the children were sent back to their parents after being protected by the guards, and that the orphans were sent to the temple last night.”

“I’m glad.”

Saying that, Zilenai’s face was not a happy one at all. Probably because some of them died or were seriously injured. But I didn’t bother to speak up. It’s already happened, and you’re probably aware of it. In this case, it is good to give yourself time to brush yourself off.

“So, why did you look so upset earlier?”

“Listen, dear. You are still young and have a lot to learn. Complicated stories later, when you become an adult, slowly…

Hyeon-joon answered Idelia’s question as if he were telling a child, and Idelia pinched his side tightly with her fingertips.

“die! i die! really die!”

“Idelia, don’t be too hard on yourself.”

It is Hyeon-jun who has become a solid muscular body by strengthening his body. Where is the flesh to pinch? Idelia gripped Hyeon-jun’s muscles like fat and squeezed them. Hyeonjun crouched down and trembled at the terrible pain. Zilenai sighed deeply and healed Hyeon-jun with divine power.

“This cheeky little boy…”

“joy!”

“Come on, both of you, calm down.”

When the atmosphere calmed down again through Zilenai’s mediation, this time, Zilenai asked Hyeon-jun.

“What happened?”

“Yes, what. I do, though.”

When Hyeon-jun glanced at Idelia and said, Idelia got angry and reached out her hand again.

“No way!”

Hyeon-jun dodged and shouted. Idelia’s face turned red and she trembled.

“Aren’t I a colleague with whom I fought! You have the right and the responsibility to be heard!”

Hyeonjun exaggeratedly opened his eyes wide and said with a startled face.

“Oh my God, you thought of me as a colleague. This brother was really impressed. You made me feel like that!”

Idelia suddenly rushed at Hyeon-jun, who was caught off guard. Zilenai thought this was their way of talking now, so he took a step back and watched the scene with a warm smile.

“Priest! Help me! Priest! Priest, priest!”

Idelia, whose strength is far superior, was clinging to it, but there was no way she could drop it. In the end, the situation calmed down again as Zilenai treated Hyeon-joon, who had been pinched until Idelia was satisfied. Zilenai said with a soft smile.

“Idelia is right. You deserve to be heard.”

Hyeonjun grumbled with a disapproving face and spoke about the current situation. Zilenai’s face stiffened as he listened to the story, but Idelia, even after hearing the story, couldn’t figure out how serious the situation was, so she had a puzzled look on her face.

“Look at that. Even if you heard it anyway, you wouldn’t know.”

“Cee…”

“Idelia, you should use nice words.”

Idelia pursed her lips at Zilenai’s gentle scolding. But I couldn’t stand the question, so I brought up a question.

“Isn’t it just a matter of being in the temple?”

“It’s not that simple. The temple has already shaken the southern realm of politics. The scales have tipped sharply, and the demands of the nobles cannot be ignored forever.”

It was only after hearing the expression that the scale had tipped that Idelia realized the seriousness of the situation. The temple, especially the temple of Karios, had to be thoroughly neutral. This is because it has stronger arms than other temples.

“Then are we going to Bentinga?”

“It’s a bit complicated, but it’s kind of dangerous because it’s politically intertwined.”

Ethelia frowned. As Hyeonjun rubbed his wrinkled forehead gently, Idelia pushed her hand away nervously.

“Do not do that.”

“Don’t be too impressed. It’ll turn out okay.”

Ethelia still didn’t let go of her expression. She said with a smirk that she didn’t like the situation.

“June did the right thing. Justice was served and children were protected. It is unreasonable to be in this situation!”

Zilenai smiled bitterly and patted Idelia’s head.

“Because people’s lives don’t always go the way you think.”

“This, this is wrong. We must make a formal protest to the nobles!”

Zilenai just stroked Idelia’s cheek with a slightly depressed face. Hyeonjun said with a grin, not caring about the serious atmosphere.

“You call me Jun. surprised.”

“Uh, no, that’s it.”

Edelia was startled and flustered. Hyeonjun laughed and stroked Idelia’s hair roughly. Hyeon-jun’s stomach hurt at the empty head inside the crooked hat. Still, it seems that he has grown a little and looks dark, wondering where his superhuman resilience has gone.

“From now on, call me Jun oppa. Understand?”

“That will never happen!”

Hyeon-jun laughed excitedly while arguing with Idelia. Still, because of this kid, I can laugh even in this situation.

Zilenai smiled softly at Edelia, who showed her emotions freely. It was rare for Edellia, who always tries to be a good child, to express her emotions without hesitation, but after meeting Hyeon-jun, she gets angry, annoyed, hits, pinches… what? Is it bad? For some reason, Zilenai, who had become unaware of it, groaned behind her, and the third apprentice paladin duel began. Back in the courtyard, the crowd began to boo the villain and cheer for their paladin apprentice. In order to prevent excited audiences from breaking into the arena, the curtain of a desperate duel is now open, including a large number of priests.

Of course, Hyun-jun won, and the priests booed and encouraged the audience to invade. Even after winning the duel, Hyeon-jun, who was tattered from the children’s hands and criticism, helplessly poured water from the well, and the third apprentice paladin duel came to an end.
