Only I Am Immune to Magic

Chapter 054. two hypocrites

Nesti was from a slum on the edge of the empire, and until she became a saint, she was busy putting on her lips and had no contact with the church at all.

Maybe that’s why, unlike the saints of the past, Nesti did not obey the church.

Disliking hard rules, she escaped the temple and wandered around outside when she was bored, and did not hesitate to commit blasphemy, such as saying that prayer was troublesome, causing church leaders to have a headache.

There were several calls for resignation from the position due to the sleazy attitude of the saintess, but when it was revealed that she had received Ariel’s blessing, even that was impossible.

Since then, she has become more free-spirited and puts aside the scriptures and prayers and begins to learn the fighting techniques used by ancient monks.

The reason is that a healthy belief resides in a healthy body.

The elders of the church foamed at the mouth as the saintess, who was no different from God’s agent, vulgarly brandished her fists.

Even though she quietly watches her eccentricities now, when the time comes, she will stand up and turn her into a doll that only prays in the temple.

Dreuk-

As Aaron approached, the saintess and other members of the investigation team rose from their seats.

The saintess greeted the party as a representative.

“hello. I am Nesti, a lowly servant of the Sephiroth.”

“It is an honor to meet the light guide. My name is Aaron Odd Haken.”

“This is Zeke Oddhaken.”

Aaron and Zeke were greeted with courtesy.

Since Rhaast was a vassal of Aaron, he silently bowed and stood behind his master.

‘It’s too small for an investigation team, isn’t it?’

Aaron, who was scanning the table, muttered to himself.

There was no such person among the members of the investigation team.

Three paladins, two high-ranking priests, and an attendant priest to do the chores.

Rather than an investigation team, it was more like an entourage formed for the saintess’ travels.

“As I’ve heard, you are tall people. It must have been enough for the demons to not be able to use their power.”

Nesty looked at Aaron with an eye smile.

It was a brief moment, but Aaron saw her eyebrows twitch.

‘I noticed.’

It is the realm of instinct that a hero recognizes a hero.

Even magic haters couldn’t stop this.

“Excuse me, but could I talk to Aaron alone? I have something I want to ask you.”

Nesty looked around the group and asked.

It was obvious that the repercussions would increase if he openly argued that Aaron was lying, so it seemed that he had chosen to live alone.

“yes. You see.”

Zeke and Raast left the drawing room without saying anything.

The members of the investigative team sitting at the table also followed suit.

widely-

Eventually, the door closed, leaving only Nesty and Aaron in the large drawing room.

“It is an honor to meet you. savior.”

Right after the people left, Nesty spoke in a low voice.

* * *

a few months ago. Nesti received a brief revelation from the Sephiroth.

[-Western end. Find the hypocrite wearing the pitch-black shell. Drop the false light and shine yourself through hypocrisy. Salvation will come to the world.]

The first revelation she received after being chosen as a saint.

Originally, upon receiving a revelation, she should immediately report it to the church, but she hid the fact and interpreted God’s will alone.

Thanks to Ariel’s help, the interpretation was not difficult.

“The hypocrite wearing the pitch-black shell was Aaron-nim. And the false light is a denomination that is losing its essence, and to shine on its own means to follow my will and judgment.”

Nesty continued with a flushed face.

As soon as she saw Aaron, she knew she had come to the right place.

Even though he did not receive Oberyn’s blessing, he was recognized and respected by everyone around him, and even wore the same armor that Oberyn wore in his lifetime.

A hypocrite in a pitch black shell.

No one could have been more suitable for this statement than Aaron.

“… … That’s what happened.”

Aaron scratched his head in confusion.

I’ve prepared various excuses in case my identity is revealed, but suddenly I’m a savior.

It was a bit embarrassing when a person who had been stuck only in Zeros for over 100 episodes suddenly came and said this.

‘It’s twisted more than I thought.’

Although the saintess received revelations in the game, most of them were ambiguous revelations such as ‘something will happen’ and never received revelations related to a specific person.

The twisted world line was getting out of the expected range.

‘Still, the big stem won’t change, so it’ll be fine.’

Whatever the reason, it is encouraging that the saintess shows such favor.

Nesti has the strongest divine power among all saints.

If they build friendships, it will become a great force in the future.

“Then did the saintess come all this way to see me? Isn’t it for the investigation of the case?”

“hmm… … yes.”

Nesty nodded and twisted her hair.

The church made an excuse to come and see the place where Bronkel had arrived, but the real purpose was to check if the protagonist of the revelation was here.

“The light told us to shine through hypocrisy.”

Nesty lowered her hand.

Her tangled hair was gently untied and landed on her shoulder.

“Until now, I was stuck in a temple and sitting like a doll, but from now on I will find my own way.”

“… … .”

Aaron looked at Nesty with a complicated face.

What he had just said meant that he would not return to Zeroth and would follow Aaron.

It’s an unconventional proposal that has no reason to reject it, but there was something reluctant about snapping it.

“As the saintess knows, I am a hypocrite. I gained my current reputation by selling the name of an ancient hero.”

Aaron put his hand on the breastplate.

“Correcting lies and establishing justice are also the duties of a saintess, so can a hypocrite like me be called a savior?”

Living and cooperating with Zeroth is a different matter than being a colleague at all.

No matter how favorably she is, in the end the saintess is the limb of the Sephirot.

In the process of going together, there must have been many times when I did things that went against the doctrine, but it was difficult if I became a stumbling block by mentioning the doctrine when it was decisive.

“are you okay. Because I am a hypocrite too.”

“yes?”

“I serve the Light wholeheartedly, but I have no intention of dedicating my life to him.”

Nesty smiled.

If the followers of light heard it, she would immediately say that it was heresy, and she was doing nothing.

“People call me a saint, but inside I am still a girl who lived by picking up trash in the slums.”

After Nesty became a saint, she yearned for the past every single day.

People would call her crazy, but she preferred a life of freedom, even if she ate leftover food, rather than praying in a temple and being raised like an animal.

‘It must have been this kind of personality.’

Aaron watched in silence as Nesty unfolded the story as if it were a confession.

The saintess I saw in the game was quiet, calm, and always exuded an elegant grace.

The perfect saintly figure desired by the church.

It will be artificially created fake, so what you are showing now will be the real thing.

‘His personality is flawless, but the church is the problem.’

While raising 100 characters, the position of the saintess remained the same no matter which route was chosen.

It means that the church is stubborn, and if it declared independence like this, the backlash would become more severe.

‘Let’s solve it first with Death Landing.’

It was after the middle of the scenario that the church bound the saintess.

It wasn’t even the first half yet, so there was plenty of time.

“Does the saint believe that I will do right?”

“The Light said it was through hypocrisy, so you have to believe it.”

“Even if I do something against the church?”

“I don’t like the church very much either.”

“… … .”

Aaron looked at the saintess with his mouth slightly open.

It seemed that at this moment, he had decided to let go of everything.

Nesty shrugged her shoulders as if to say something.

“How are you? What the saintess should serve is the light, not the church.”

“If I report this conversation to the church, what are you saying?”

“Then I will also tell you that my savior is a liar.”

Nesty grinned.

Aaron glared at her with a hard face, but eventually a smile appeared on his lips.

“Call me Aaron. The title of savior is burdensome.”

“Call me Nesty. I like my name more than the saintess.”

The two hypocrites laughed and joined hands.

“You’re not going back, what do you mean all of a sudden?”

The deputy leader of the Sephiroth Investigation Corps and senior paladin Balon were quite shocked by the saintess’ remarks.

After meeting Aaron alone, the saintess declared that she would go on a pilgrimage rather than return to the church.

Since a saintess is a representative of God, she cannot arbitrarily decide where she will go.

Coming here was also decided after the elders of the church discussed their opinions several times, but if they suddenly left the pilgrimage, the position of the remaining members of the investigation team would be difficult.

“After hearing the story from Aaron, it seems that the movements of the demons are unusual. I guess I’ll have to go around the parish myself and check the situation.”

From noble mtl dot com

“All that happened here was put together by Count Arnin. In the context of the situation, just reviewing the data you received is sufficient, so please go away.”

Balon did not back down despite the saintess’ insistence.

He knew for sure that the vice-captain would take all responsibility if he left the saintess behind, but he couldn’t back down.

“no… … .”

“Sir Balon. What we had was a conversation between hero and hero, not human to human.”

Just as Nesty was about to say something, Aaron interrupted.

He glanced at Nesti, who opened her rabbit eyes, and continued.

“Lord Oberyn and Lady Ariel are also taking this situation seriously. That’s why the saintess asked for a private meeting and had a secret conversation.”

“Heroes? What the hell did you talk about?”

When the hero’s name came out, Balon stunned and asked again.

“that… … .”

Aaron blurted out his words with a serious expression on his face.

‘I hadn’t thought about it until then.’

He was bewildered inwardly.

I thought he would back down immediately if I mentioned a hero, but I didn’t know that he would ask me back like this.

“Aaron. You decided not to say that.”

As Aaron hesitated, this time Nesty opened her mouth.

Aaron quickly took her word for it.

“Still, the life and death of the continent is at stake, so wouldn’t it be right to share it?”

“Life and death of the continent?”

At the unexpected remark, not only Balon, but also the members of the investigation team who were listening around opened their mouths.

“Aaron!”

Nesty narrowed her brows and crossed her arms.

“It’s over. I’d rather go back to Zeroth than say that. If the world perishes, the investigators here will take responsibility.”

After saying that, she approached the place where the investigation team spoke.

Balon hurriedly grabbed her as she mounted the horse.

“Lady. Please wait a moment.”

“What are you waiting for? Are you going back? We can sit together in the Great Temple and watch the world perish.”

Nesty scanned the investigation team with ferocious eyes.

When the saintess, who had never frowned before, made such an expression, the faces of the members of the investigation team turned black.

“Oh no!”

“Our thoughts were short!”

“Please go on a pilgrimage and take care of the world!”

“If you are with Aaron, I can trust you enough!”

Balon and the members of the investigation team bowed their heads.

“Lady. stop it What is their fault?”

When the emotions reached their climax, Aaron laid the plate at good timing.

Nesty let out a deep sigh, thinking it was time for this, and sneaked back to Aaron’s side.

“sorry. I was so frustrated that I showed ugliness. How should I see the light in the future… … .”

“I’m sorry, it’s not even fair.”

“How can a heart that worries about the world be considered indecent?”

The members of the investigation team teased and comforted the self-blaming saintess.

Although the responsibility for leaving the saintess behind could be evaded somehow, if a demon descended in this area after forcibly taking it, it could really be the responsibility of destruction.

There was no doubt that the saintess, who had been infinitely gentle, could become so angry.

Even if he heard bitter comments from the church later, it was right to leave the saintess behind now.

“The saintess even wrote a letter in advance in case the investigation team gets into trouble. Oddhaken and the Arnin family will also vouch for it, so don’t worry too much.”

Aaron looked around the investigation team and drove a wedge.

“her… … You did that.”

“We don’t even know… … .”

Balon and the members of the investigation team looked at the two with reluctant expressions.

“Do you really write letters?”

“I have to write it. ASAP.”

Nesty and Aaron opened their mouths without anyone noticing.
