Ethan caught his breath.

‘It’s important from now on. Let’s get our minds right.’

Ethan’s eyes were shining.

The sudden visit of the Knights Templar was a good opportunity for Ethan to take advantage of.

‘In order to survive, you must advance to the Central Church.’

There is a limit to the information that can be obtained from a small monastery.

Above all, there were great restrictions on the scope of action.

Although she skillfully controls the jet-black eyes based on her previous life experiences, it also had its limits.

The jet-black eyes were growing in power day by day.

Magical power and divine power coexist inside Ethan’s body, and he had to find a way to maintain this balance.

Because of this, Ethan was planning to advance to the Central Church.

The Knights Templar were enough to do their job, and it would be a good excuse for Stella to be able to resist.

‘Well, there must be no place other than the Central Church to get away from the pursuers.’

It was best to hide the trees in the forest.

Ethan had to have a strong background to hide his ability to become more prominent as he grew older.

In the background, there was no place other than the Church of Pars.

Above all else, Ethan was in the state of being prepared.

‘My treatment method is unique, but Stella was convinced by using the saint as an excuse. It’ll be fine if you look around.’

Like dark magic, the phenomenon of structural regeneration rather than a miracle could cause fatal misunderstandings in the present era, after the end of the anti-magical war.

However, the book of Saint Ethan discovered by Ethan confirmed the possibility of dispelling such misunderstandings.

So there was no need to stay here forever.

widely!

That was then.

Stella did something unexpected.

He cut the gap between Ethan and Jacob and opened his mouth with very determined eyes.

The appearances of Saint Eileen and Stella seemed to overlap.

It was ominous.

Have you ever been of any help to Ethan?

“I have no intention of stopping Ethan from acting with a noble will.”

Stella showed a strong will and placed conditions on Jacob.

Even Ethan, who thought this would be enough, was puzzled.

“However, Sir Jacob must understand this child with great generosity no matter what he sees during treatment.”

“What do you mean?”

“You can see it when you see this child heal.”

So yes, the answer was ‘no’.

Ethan closed his eyes tightly.

Stella did it because she was worried about Ethan.

He must be concerned that Ethan’s healing magic might look like dark magic regenerative art.

‘No, why say that! Then you’re more suspicious?!’

Ethan was astonished that his sinister sense was not wrong.

Stella didn’t just resemble a saint in appearance.

Even his personality and behavior were truly harmful to Ethan!

So Ethan hurriedly set out on the backtrack.

Leaving it like this would only deepen my suspicions.

In fact, Jacob was looking at Ethan with a puzzled face.

Ethan pretended to be a devout believer.

“Stella, it’s okay. We cannot turn away from the one who came under Pars-sama’s guidance.”

Are these words coming out of my mouth?

Even as he said it, chicken skin grew all over Ethan’s body.

… I felt like I was going to cry.

* * *

Stella made up her mind.

His heart was filled with only the need to protect Ethan.

The outside world was full of all kinds of conspiracies and schemes, and Ethan was a slender being who had no choice but to be bitten there.

What if people find out that healing with divine magic is similar to dark magic regeneration?

There were also some wolves among the priests of the pars church.

Paladins who went out and killed the Dark Followers themselves were more aggressive.

Therefore, Stella could not stand still.

“Stella, it’s okay. We cannot turn away from the one who came under Pars-sama’s guidance.”

At that moment, Ethan opened his mouth with a firm expression.

ah!

Seeing this, Stella was unwittingly admiring.

The determined expression on his face was expressing his noble will to save lives.

Ethan would have known.

Because Stella made it clear to Ethan that he could be mistaken for regenerative magic.

Still, why did you come forward?

‘In order to practice the teachings of the Goddess, I am going to go down a difficult road.’

Only then did Stella understand Ethan’s intentions.

“Ethan… … .”

Stella raised her head, holding back her tears.

That little boy has grown up to be a big boy.

That was when Stella was mistaking it.

Jacob, who was watching this, knelt down with an injured body.

“I dare you to swear by my name and title. No matter what happens, I will protect Ethan. Also, as Stella-sama requested, I will not judge a child recklessly based on my insignificant thoughts and prejudices.”

Clearly, the conflict between Ethan and Stella was quite misleading.

For those who didn’t know the story, it was truly heart-warming.

But there was no other skit like this for Ethan.

Fortunately, Stella was open to Jacob’s oath.

“like. But Sir Jacob, I want you to keep your promise to me.”

“yes. I will leave my sword here. It is a token of trust, so I hope you will accept it.”

“Thank you for understanding my rudeness.”

Jacob and Stella were talking.

He was faithful as a priest and a paladin.

Obviously things were going the way he wanted them to, but Ethan felt uncomfortable.

‘You’re doing very naughty things.’

Then Ethan looked at Jacob.

The Red Mane Knight, Jacob Anderson.

He is a paladin who made a name for himself in the continent.

I’ve heard that the Central Church hangs out thanks to dealing with the Dark Followers over and over again.

“There are so many things I want to say to you, but first of all, my minions are in danger. Shall we go down and talk about the details?”

“yes. All right.”

“great. One o’clock is urgent, so hurry up. Stella-sama, shall we go down together?”

So they headed to the village.

* * *

“Aww!”

“Hold on a little bit.”

Ethan and Stella healed the knights.

A black curse was wriggling in every deep wound.

Ethan’s shining blue hand rested on the wound.

Then the curse turned into smoke and disappeared in an instant.

The deep wound was slowly regenerated from the inside out.

Fortunately, the knights were frantic and did not pay much attention to the method of healing magic.

“The treatment is over. We’ve focused on removing the curse, so please take care of your wounds for the time being.”

Ethan’s appearance as he turned around with a request was truly an example for a priest.

The healed knights could not contain their astonishment and looked at the wounded area.

“Oh my gosh… Is this really the skill of a child who hasn’t even been ordained a priest?”

“After all, you are a miracle child!”

“The rumors weren’t lies.”

Meanwhile, the miracle child, Ethan, was swearing inwardly.

‘Damn it. Another pain… … .’

After the Demon Lord’s Eye appeared, he had one problem.

There was no big problem in removing the curse of magic and healing the wounds.

However, the problem was that whenever I used divine power, I felt a stabbing pain in my left eye.

“Ugh.”

Ethan sighed and walked out of the room.

I couldn’t breathe and took care of the knights, so now is the time to rest.

“Hey.”

It was Jacob who called him back then.

“Thank you very much. Thanks to you, the men saved their lives.”

Ethan noticed the curse of magical power flowing through Jacob’s arm.

“You haven’t been treated yet?”

“Because the treatment of my subordinates is more important than me.”

Stella also offered Jacob treatment, but he refused.

Ethan furrowed his eyebrows.

“The wounds on the arm and back are quite deep. It’s amazing how he climbed the hill with that body. You have a very deep heart for your subordinates.”

On the surface, these were words of deep concern.

But Jacob felt a thorn in Ethan’s words.

“It’s because I’m in the best condition.”

“You can get treatment from me right now. You will regret it if there are any after-effects due to the severe wounds.”

“Weren’t you here to rest? are you okay. That’s a lot cheaper than the price for not being responsible for subordinates.”

Jacob seemed to feel a great sense of responsibility for the failure of his mission.

Ethan’s eyes narrowed at that sight.

‘You idiot.’

He hated these people.

Without going far, the seven heroes were like that in their previous lives.

Even when they attacked the imperial lands occupied by the Demon King, they were always caught up in this trivial sense of justice.

If they had a firmer determination, they would have been able to defeat the Demon King sooner.

You can’t get innocent blood on your hands?

Need to find a better way?

It was all bullshit of idealists.

But apart from not liking Jacob, he had to show him his skills.

Ethan would do whatever it takes to get out of this country monastery.

Wheeing!

A divine light emanated from Ethan’s fingertips.

Then, the curse of magical power that fluttered from the injured arm became smoke and disappeared in an instant.

At the same time, the wound began to gradually heal.

The biological tissue of the arm was restored in earnest.

The torn and cut muscle tissue was attached, and the area marked by an inflammatory reaction moved forward.

The wounds on the invisible back must have been healing in that way.

Jacob opened his eyes wide in surprise.

‘You break the curse of magic in an instant and start treatment right away? Besides, this treatment is something like dark magic regeneration.’

Jacob glanced up and looked at Ethan.

Contrary to concerns, however, only divine power was felt in Ethan.

‘Is this what Stella was worried about?’

Jacob asked, thinking about thinking about it.

“Your treatment seems a little different from other priests. Did Stella-sama teach you this?”

Ethan paused for a moment.

Because I could guess why Jacob was reacting this way.

“… Strictly speaking, it should be Eileen-sama. I learned the basics from Stella, but the application is based on Eileen’s book.”

With those words, Jacob suddenly remembered a book he had read as an apprentice knight.

My memory was hazy, but I remembered the contents.

“Have you ever read a book called ‘Fundamentals of Healing’ by Saint Eileen? at your age?”

Ethan was surprised at that.

He had expected Jacob to ask and followed the treatment method.

After all, Stella had questioned Jacob, so Ethan decided that it would be better to resolve it immediately in some way.

However, it was surprising that Jacob mentioned ‘the basis of treatment’.

“It would have been difficult to find the book in such a small monastery, but I read it. That’s because he hasn’t become a priest yet. Among the priests, those who have read the book will probably be counted on their hands.”

“I have a lot of questions about Eileen-sama.”

The promise with Stella must have been the cause.

And more than anything else, Jacob’s erudition took a big part.

If I didn’t know anything, it would have been difficult to explain that much.

“It’s amazing that you have a natural talent and a passion for learning.”

Jacob repeated the folding and stretching of the treated arm.

Then he fell into deep thought.

After being silent for a while, Jacob looked into Ethan’s eyes and said seriously.

“I don’t mean to belittle this place, but if you go to the Central Church rather than here, you will be able to show off your abilities more. What do you think?”

The word Ethan had been waiting for finally came out.

But he broke the shichimi.

“There are still three years left until the ordination ceremony.”

“People with extraordinary abilities don’t stay around. And above all, once you have verified your abilities, I must report this to the Central Church.”

“Anyway, communication came from the Central Church. But I have no intention of going right now.”

Ethan steadfastly pretended to say no, leaving room.

I couldn’t accept the flat offer from the beginning.

In order to raise the ransom, a process of pushing and pulling was necessary.

‘Hey, look at this?’

When Ethan came out decisively, Jacob was internally bewildered.

He pondered and opened his mouth.

“Did you say you were very interested in Eileen-sama? There are a lot of materials in the Central Church that can never be found in such a remote place. If you are as talented as you are, you can easily get access to the secret library.”

Ethan, who was about to turn around, stopped.

At Ethan’s reaction, Jacob’s momentum increased.

He was confident he threw the right bait at Ethan.

But in reality it was Jacob who threw the bait and bit it.

‘Thank you for telling me something I didn’t even ask.’

Ethan smiled inwardly.

But on the outside, he frowned and pretended to be worried.

“Thank you for caring me. Let’s go first.”

In the process of raising the ransom, unexpectedly, more information about the saint was obtained.

It was a satisfactory achievement.

‘Secret library… … .’

Ethan’s eyes deepened in thought.

* * *

“Did you hear that rumor?”

Recently, the Central Church has been in turmoil.

Priests and monks talked about the authenticity of the news from the underdeveloped provinces.

“yes. I heard that you are a child of Patriam Abbey. This was the first time I knew there was a monastery there, right?”

“Of course, it is an underdeveloped area.”

“A miracle child? Are you a holy child? Ha, I really don’t know if I should believe that.”

“You don’t even have stigmata?”

“But, isn’t there some credibility that the 5th Knight Commander reported it?”

“Even so, it’s hard to believe that you’ve been able to get that level of treatment at that age.”

“Well, indeed.”

“But if it were true, I would definitely be ordained a priest early. We’re running out of people these days to deal with the Dark Followers.”

It was caused by Jacob’s report returning from the mission.

He reported without a single lie.

However, there were still differences of opinion at the upper level.

“You say that the Holy Spirit has already sent you a message asking you to be ordained a priest?”

“Well, there are so many rumors about it, so it must have been that he wanted to test his abilities.”

“But I find it more difficult to believe because that explanation seems rather vain. In fact, it is an achievement that is difficult to achieve at that age.”

Historically, it was not without examples.

If we had to look for it, there was Saint Eileen, a person from only a hundred years ago.

However, it was human nature to not be able to easily acknowledge existence outside of one’s common sense.

So they doubted even the reputable Jacob.

That was then.

squeaky.

The sound of the outer castle gate opening was heard.

I saw people rushing through the gates.

“Anyway, it looks like a decision will be made soon.”

The eyes of the priests narrowed.

The reason the door of the outer castle was opened was obvious.

Priest Ordination Ceremony.

Ethan, the boy of rumors, had arrived with a messenger sent by the Pope.
