Became a Munchkin Skill Thief

Episode 99 Pay off your debt.

Bianca’s eyes get colder the more she makes excuses, causing a bout of measles, Krashu walks through the temple corridors in a cold sweat.

Because it was the first time Bianca looked at herself so coldly, she was embarrassed.

Fortunately, she later agreed to look around the Holy Kingdom of Freeman together.

It was strange that I could get rid of my anger with it in the yard where we were together every day.

[ You’re such an idiot, are you trying to bring in a new woman again? ]

At that moment, Crimson Garden appeared from the hallway window.

She looked at Krashu pitifully as she trimmed her wings.

[ Don’t you know what happens when a regressor makes fun of a dick? ]

“How do you treat people? He has never lived such a promiscuous life.”

[ Heh, do you think it’s promiscuous to only physically tease you? Your mind itself has become disordered. ]

“The promiscuous thing is Cream, your mouth.”

You mean to say something that is obscenely obscene.

[ Tsk tsk, he only comes to his senses when a woman who claims to have had a child of hers appears later. At that time, even if she was stabbed, she would have nothing to say. ]

“That’s not going to happen.”

I don’t know what people are.

In the first place, at least until destruction is prevented, I have no intention of becoming like that with anyone.

You never know what’s going to happen in this damn world.

“Rather than that, Cream, remember what I said about Bianca the other day?”

[ I called her to Cheongsong Hall in Balheim. ]

Crimson Garden let out a long sigh.

[ I know what it’s like to just watch without doing anything. ]

Is it because there are many times when you just have to watch the servants die helplessly?

Crimson Garden seemed to have taken Bianca into consideration as well.

One way or another, Crimson Garden must have developed feelings for Bianca.

“Thank you. Bianca will like it.”

[ It would be better than stopping you from packing your bag naked to follow you. ]

“Let that dry.”

I’ll never see Bianca look like that.

[ If you do well, that won’t happen. ]

It was Crimson Garden’s intention not to appear again like this time.

“I’ll try.”

[ I’m not saying that even if you die, you won’t reappear like that. ]

Krashugi, who knew the future, couldn’t bear to give a definite answer.

I would have added more, not less.

[ Go hang out with the saintess. ]

So, Krashu looked at the Crimson Garden outside the window with a wry smile.

Then he knocked on the door of the visitor he arrived at.

“Saintess, this is Krasch Valheim.”

– Oh, wait a minute.

The door opened with a squeaking voice from inside.

There was a dark blonde woman, Holy Knight Diona.

Astria looked this way as she entered the door she opened.

“See you again. Mr. Krashu.”

Astria’s appearance under the sun-colored hair was a little different from before.

It was because she was dressed in different clothes and dressed up with makeup that she didn’t normally do.

In fact, Krashu was more used to this appearance.

The saintess, who has increased her external activities, said that she should always look the most beautiful, and Astria never neglected to decorate.

In Krashu’s memory, Astria always looked like that.

“Yes. You seem to have prepared well for your date. You are beautiful.”

When Krashu trembled, she flinched and averted her eyes again.

She was the Astria she always saw.

“Diona.”

In the meantime, Astria, who was avoiding her eyes, called Diona.

“Miss Astria.”

“It’s okay. I won’t leave the room.”

As a saint, it is impossible for the world to see a man and a woman together.

That’s why she didn’t intend to show the two of them together with Krashu.

Of course, from Astria’s point of view, her heart skipped a beat when she brought a man into her room and the two of them had a conversation.

She tried to hide it.

“…… All right.”

Diona took a short breath and stepped back.

She glanced at Krashu, closed her door, and left.

She believed that a person of direct descent from Valheim wouldn’t cross the line.

So, Krashu and Astria were left alone in the room.

A moment of silence passed between the two.

It was Krashu who moved first in that silence.

Because she walked opposite her to her chair where she was sitting.

Astria flinched once more.

At the same time, her hands wiggled busily under the table.

Meanwhile, Krashu pulled out her chair and finally opened her mouth.

“Thank you for taking the time to talk to me alone.”

“Ah, yes, yes.”

“You don’t have to be so nervous. I’m not suggesting anything important like a deal, I’m just trying to talk a little bit about the Holy Kingdom.”

No matter how mature she is, Astria is still only 14 years old.

Astria’s eyes widened as Krache took care of them.

“Yes?”

Astria answered a little stupidly.

As Krashu looked at her with a puzzled look, her Astria’s face slowly began to turn red.

“Ah, ah, that, right! Since she is a direct descendant of Valheim, she might have something to say to the saintess.”

Astria turned around in embarrassment.

Krashu, who was looking at it blankly, had a puzzled look on his face.

“…… Did you really think I asked you out on a date?”

Astria’s mouth was tightly shut.

The fact that her face was full of red was an expression that was stabbed to the point.

Seeing that, Krashu belatedly realized his mistake.

‘Was Astria less cunning this time of year than I thought?’

It was during the graduation ceremony of Rachellen Academy that Krashu met Astria.

‘Astria at that time was more mature than it is now.’

Krashu scratched the back of his head for a moment.

Then I suddenly had a question.

‘Then why did you accept the date?’

If she considered it a real date, she should have said no.

That’s because he spat out the rude words of asking her out on a date to her saintess.

A man who hates her face but also has a rude personality invites her to a date.

No matter how much she was a direct descendant of Valheim, if she was a saint, she could refuse.

But why did you accept that?

“…… Holy lady, don’t you hate my face? It’s like you look mean because you look sharp.”

“Oh no?”

To Krashu’s question, she answered indifferently, feeling too ashamed for her own misunderstanding.

“Well, I think I’m on the handsome side… ….”

Then, because of her shyness, she couldn’t keep her usual attitude at all and answered honestly.

Belatedly realizing that, her eyes now went round and round.

She was on the verge of tears because she wanted to hide in a mouse hole right now.

She had never revealed her true feelings so openly.

Meanwhile, Krashu listened to her and stiffened her body.

‘These words are so different from back then?’

Looking at Astria, who is in a state of shame, she is serious about what she said.

How could people’s tastes change so drastically in just a few years?

‘Or not.’

From noble mtl dot com

It may have been the same from the beginning.

Krashu, who belatedly grasped the situation, recalled his old memories one by one.

What did Astria’s various remarks mean?

I thought it was like that because I had a bad feeling for sure.

Astria This guy had feelings for himself from the start.

All of the harsh words he spat out from time to time were all to hide his shame.

I never thought I’d find out about that today.

Krashu swallowed a laugh.

At that time, Astria was so well restrained that Krashu, who was quick to notice, didn’t even notice.

Since a sainted woman should not have feelings for the opposite s*x, she was thoroughly restrained.

Then he burst out at the end and showed his sincerity.

Krache replied to that sincerity by not going out on a date.

Krache slowly brushed his face.

‘It’s garbage.’

Even though it was to blame for Shinchang’s astonishing behavior, he did something very disrespectful to Astria.

‘I can’t even apologize now that it’s something that never happened.’

Krashu looked at Astria, who still couldn’t hold his face.

“Saint, do you know about the fake saint?”

She decided to get down to business to ease her shame.

At that point, Astria finally came to her senses.

“A false saint… ….”

“It is correct to speak of a saint who has recently appeared in the Holy Kingdom.”

Astria tilted her head.

“Actually, what if the saintess wasn’t a fake?”

And Astria’s expression immediately changed.

Astria is finally back as usual.

I started to focus on the story of Krashu rather than shame.

“Actually, from the saintess’ point of view, it might be better not to hear about it.”

What Krache was about to tell you was none other than the deep secret of the church.

So when Krashu also tried to speak, he was reluctant for a moment.

“I think you have something very important to say.”

As always, Astria smiled like the sun.

“Please listen. Because I don’t want to know the story related to me.”

That figure perfectly matched the word saint.

That’s why Krache soon spoke the truth.

“She is the one who is called the false saint, and it is recorded that she died 300 years ago.”

“Yes?”

Astria’s smile hardened at the completely unexpected answer.

This was a completely new story.

“It is also the future of the saintess.”

Thump!

At that moment, the door opened violently.

Standing there was none other than Diona.

I had been quietly and secretly listening to the story outside, and came in as soon as I heard Krache’s remarks.

“Diona.”

Astria’s eyes have become colder than ever.

The doctor told me not to disturb this place.

“Astria-sama!”

Diona’s eyes trembled.

She looked at Krashu.

How could a boy who is a direct descendant of Balheim know that?

This was a fact that only a few knew even within the Holy Kingdom.

“It’s okay. Please continue.”

“Saints are half-immortal beings.”

The body of a saintess filled with her divine power is close to immortality.

As for the aging body, the cells do not age because of the divine power that fills her body.

She didn’t even know that the most similar thing to Crimson Garden was a saint.

But only one.

There are things that even her divine power can’t hold.

That’s the spirit.

Her body is maintained throughout her life, but a saint’s mind is destroyed at the age of 250 on average.

She is a saint who leads only a life of healing someone in the Holy Kingdom.

Most of them eventually reached their mental limits as their will to live weakened.

That’s why the holy kingdom changes saints every 200 years.

The method was none other than to put the former saintess whose spirit was broken into her glass coffin, force her to use her holy power, squeeze it out, and let the water in her glass coffin dwell with her holy power. Will be.

The next generation, the pre-infant saints, are made to live in the water.

That is the Holy Grail.

That is what the saintess passed down through generations.

After all the explanations, Diona lowered her head.

Because it was a story she knew.

“In other words, the fake saint is the shell of the former saint.”

The fake saint who is currently in full swing is a saint from 300 years ago who became an old woman due to the divine power that came from her dementia.

Saints are secrets of the Holy Kingdom and a secret that should never be revealed.

The reason she was able to walk outside her was inside her divine kingdom.

It was thanks to the force of a new faction that opposed the passing down of the saintess.

‘And this was also the beginning of Freeman’s severing of saints in the Holy Kingdom.’

All of this was a story told by Astria herself.

The current Astria must have known about the Holy Grail.

However, the process by which the Holy Grail is made is probably unknown.

Of course.

She learned of this story after Diona Stella, who was here, joined forces with the opposition to her succession.

It was after she died fighting the Holy Kingdom head on.

And that was also the moment when she joined her generation of the sky.

Leading on the back of the generation of the sky that will be the successor in each kingdom and empire, she threatened the holy royal family and the temple.

Will she shake the foundations of the Holy Kingdom by exposing her own existence to the entire world?

Or will she give herself her freedom.

The answer was simple.

She formally joined as a saint to support the generation of the sky.

In order to release her own shackles, she took over the will of Diona, who had worked so hard, and spoke her words.

Astria, who had been silent, looked back at Diona.

“Diona, the reason you didn’t tell me this clearly was because you thought of me.”

“…… I am.”

Diona couldn’t finish her words and looked at Astria with her confused eyes.

She hoped that she would find out and not suffer.

But Astria was strong.

「If, really, if I could go back to that time. I don’t want Diona to die because of me.”

And Krashu remembered what she said.

So I told her this today.

“This is the story I wanted to tell you.”

Astria looked back at Krashu.

She couldn’t understand why Krache had told her this.

From Krashu’s point of view, it was a story that was equally unfavorable.

If I had a story like this in my hand, it could be a card to shake when something happened with the Holy Kingdom someday.

However, on the other hand, if he uttered it out of his mouth, he might become the target of the Holy Kingdom.

I directly informed the saintess, who could be said to be the foundation of the Holy Kingdom.

No matter how you look at it, it wasn’t a fact that could only be reported through a cubic tablet.

“Why is Krashu… ….”

“Do you want to ask if I informed you?”

Astria was silent.

Seeing that, Krashu smiled briefly.

“Because I have a personality that I can’t stand after receiving grace.”

At that time, the vanguard of the generation of the sky was missing.

The most evil attack that occurred in the late stage.

Caught up in it, Krashu and Astria were in danger of dying.

Both suffered major injuries, but as Astria was a saint, it was an injury that could be recovered somehow.

On the other hand, Krashu was so messed up that even Astria’s recovery ability couldn’t recover.

It was because the curse that had been accumulated for a long time was gnawing away at Krashu’s body along with injuries.

Astria’s action there was simple.

「Don’t porridge. You, whoever you are, die as you wish.”

Like the time of the Holy Grail for the succession of the saintess.

She poured all of her divine power into Krashu.

Only to save Krashu.

When Krashu woke up belatedly.

「…… Astria?」

Astria was no longer in this world.

Even though her own injuries were less healed, only her corpse, which had poured all of her holy power into Krashu, remained.

On that day, Krashu received grace.

And because of that, Krashu was able to survive.

The divine power that dwells in Krashu’s body is the will of Astria.

Unless his head was cut off or his heart was pierced, it was because his body was constantly being restored.

That’s why Krashu led an immortal body and lived far away, bearing countless curses in his body.

Because he had no face to see Astria’s face if he died.

And this time it was time for Krashu to repay the favor.

Of course, Krashu didn’t mention that fact.

“It is thanks to the saintess that I survived this time. So, wouldn’t it be the role of her grace to help the saintess choose the direction she wants even a little bit?”

“That is just the natural price of a heroic act. She confronted the 8-star erosion species, and she was in such a state.

But Krashu shook his head.

Instead, he asserted.

“The one who saved me was Astria, before you were a saint.”

Astria made a puzzled expression.

Because it was the first story she had heard in her life.

Because there was not a single person who directly expressed gratitude to Astria, who was not a saint.

“Someone once told me to take care of myself first.”

Her It was her words that I heard so much about her that it often felt like her nagging.

“If you think about Astria, I think it would be a good word.”

After Krashu finished his words, he stood up.

Then he delivered his last words to the dazed Astria.

“Even if I look like this, I will become a little stronger.”

Krashu’s mischievous smile was the same as his age for the first time today.

“If the shackles annoy you, tell me. I will cut you off.”

Those last words were not to the saintess, but to Astria.

Leave Astria not answering, Krashu walked out of the room.

Astria still stared blankly at Krashu’s back.
