Only I Am Immune to Magic

Chapter 092. When did you steal that again?

[- Drag and go.]

Raven said, looking down at the traitors on their knees.

Chunk!

Soon the door opened and the ghosts waiting outside entered and dragged them out of the conference room.

Drizzle- Kudangtang!

For a while, the sound of people leaving the room filled the meeting room.

Those who can’t get up because their legs are loose, those who sob in tears, those who claim they are innocent, and those who tremble their lips with a blue face.

As if they had intuited their fate, the appearance of the sinners being dragged out was pitiful.

[-I’m so sorry this happened right after my father passed away.]

When the traitors had all gone and the commotion had subsided, Raven spoke.

The bureaucrats, who were as stiff as statues, flinched and looked at her.

They felt strange seeing the gossip about their monarch spread like wildfire, but they never dreamed that another faction might be behind them.

So I was more afraid.

The young monarch did not seek help from anyone, but trampled the seeds of rebellion on himself.

Thorough preparation and merciless punishment as if he knew everything from the beginning.

I couldn’t even guess where he got that information and put it into action.

[- I’m sorry. Lord.]

[-This is our negligence.]

The bureaucrats who met Raven’s eyes were busy lowering their heads.

In fact, it was difficult for other officials to notice, as this was the initiative of the senior administrator, who was no different from the ruler’s hand.

But that couldn’t be an excuse.

It’s nothing else, it’s treason.

It was obviously a big mistake that no one noticed that there was a force within that was trying to bring down the monarch.

[-I know very well that you guys are innocent. The meticulousness of the traitors was enough to fool my eyes.]

Raven watched the officials’ reactions for a while, then nodded as if this was enough.

[-I will consider this case to be irresistible and will not hold you accountable. So please do your best to make sure this doesn’t happen again. I believe in you.]

The gray eyes that were shining with anger and murderous intent sank coldly again.

[-Okay, Lord… … .]

The officials, who were nervous about what kind of punishment they would receive, widened their eyes.

The former lord, Asram, mercilessly threw out those who were not helpful to him or imprisoned them after trial.

But Raven was different.

She was colder than anyone to those who sinned, but showed a warm side to those who did not.

The mortal sin of treason has taken place, and no one will be held accountable.

If it had been Asram, he would have taken everyone’s place here and punished him as severely as a traitor.

‘good.’

Aaron smiled softly at the wave of emotion that spread through the meeting room.

Raven dragged a case that could have been solved secretly to the meeting room, handled it in front of everyone, and held the officials accountable.

And by forgiving rather than using it as a weakness, he captured both the prestige of the monarch and the loyalty of officials.

Better results than initially thought.

Raven did very well with what he was spoon-fed last night.

‘There will be no one who trips over needlessly anymore.’

The atmosphere was relieved by Raven’s mercy, but the faces of the bureaucrats were still hardened.

I was watching to see if sparks would fly out unintentionally if I said the wrong thing.

In this atmosphere, no matter what Raven said, he would just ignore it.

“Raven.”

Aaron wanted it to be this time and signaled her.

char-

Raven gave a brief nod and pulled a rolled parchment from her bosom.

A map of Death Landing drawn by Aaron himself.

As the map unfolded on the round table, the faces of the bureaucrats who had been relaxed were stained with tension again.

[-Now we will begin the plenary session.]

* * *

After the hour-long meeting, only Raven and Aron were left in the conference room.

“It’s nice to be cool.”

Aaron leaned back in his chair with a satisfied look on his face.

The meeting went smoothly thanks to Raven taking the initiative.

She notified that Azazel’s army of monsters was heading to the Shadow Forest and ordered the commander-in-chief to organize a defense force.

A lot of people were taken aback by the sudden notification that monsters were attacking, but no one questioned the monarch’s words.

That would be the case, as the traitor’s head had been blown off just a moment ago, and there was still blood on the floor of the conference room. Who would argue with her words?

The story flowed to how to stop the monster rather than the truth about Raven’s words, and thanks to that, the party was able to get the desired result.

“I am still not sure.”

However, even though the meeting ended smoothly, Raven’s expression was not good.

Thanks to Aaron’s help, the rebels were punished and the precarious authority of the monarch was restored, but subjugating Azazel was another matter.

“Is Azazel really here?”

Raven pointed to the marked area on the map.

The place Aaron was aiming for was a wasteland far away from Hadman Castle.

I couldn’t understand why a meticulous person like Azazel abandoned the Altar of Resurrection, the solid walls, and countless minions and went to a place like this.

“He’s not called a cunning man for nothing.”

Aaron said, lifting himself off the backrest.

Azazel tricks her opponents with tricks they usually don’t think of, and enjoys watching them bewildered.

Same this time.

The Altar of Resurrection is located in Hadman Castle, but when the conditions for resurrection are met, the Altar disappears and a body is formed in a place unknown to anyone.

In preparation for the worst situation when Hedman Castle was occupied, he even tricked his minions.

“You have to be more cunning than him to kill him.”

Aaron pulled the map Raven was looking at in front of him.

“Listen. I will teach you a trick to end a thousand years of suffering.”

He spoke excitedly, pointing to Hadman Castle and began talking.

The goal of the operation is to infiltrate Hadman Castle, forcibly terminate the still incomplete resurrection ritual, and defeat Azazel, who has been resurrected in an incomplete state.

For him, it was necessary to divide the number of people who would infiltrate Hadman Castle and the number of people who would go to the place of Azazel’s resurrection.

“Nesty and Raast will go to Hadman Castle, and I, Raven, and the Ghost Battalion will go to Azazel.”

Aaron wrote down the names of Hadman Castle and Azazel’s resurrection location with a quill he had prepared in advance.

“… … Infiltrate Hadman Castle? Just the two of us?”

Nesty looked at Aaron with a puzzled face.

The center of Death Landing is the realm of Azazel, which even the Sephiroth Church cannot easily touch.

But not simply scouting, but infiltrating Hadman Castle, which is no different from its heart.

If it was a joke, it was too much, and if it was serious, it was crazy.

“It is quite possible. If this guy helps.”

Aaron smiled and pointed at Gaos as if to say not to worry.

[-… … What and how do I help?]

Gaos suddenly looked at the finger pointed at him with anxious eyes.

Aaron tapped him and continued.

“You can use possession.”

[-Possession? Wasn’t that just what a graveyard was?]

Gaos, who was nervous about having him do something ridiculous again, sneered and sneered.

Azazel reacts very sensitively to changes in surrounding situations or characters.

Even if he returns possessing a new body, it is obvious that he will be suspicious of him as he has not been contacted for several days.

Let alone infiltrating, you will be killed by the watchman guarding the gates before you even get inside.

“Who wants a new body?”

From noble mtl dot com

Aaron shook his head and looked at Nesty.

“… … Why are you looking at me like that?”

After looking at Aaron for a moment, she asked with a puzzled face.

It was because his eyes contained an ominous intention that was difficult to bring out in words.

Aaron paused for a moment, then continued with a hard face.

“This time, the saintess will have to suffer.”

“yes?”

Nesty’s face slowly turned an earthy color.

“Sir, I can’t believe Gaos is trying to possess me… … .”

“you’re right.”

When I asked back, Aaron put a wedge in.

“her… … .”

[-You say terrible things casually. Are you going to kill the saintess to catch Azazel?]

Nesty opened her mouth with a bewildered face, and Gaos also glared at Aaron as if he was dumbfounded.

All priests who follow the Sephiroth will become idiots by incurring the wrath of the gods if they succumb to evil without being martyred.

Ordinary priests would receive such severe punishment, much less the saintess Nesti’s soul could be annihilated if she did such a thing.

“Who dies?”

Aaron grinned and pulled something long from his bosom and handed it to Nesty.

A branch the size of a forearm that glows warm green.

It was a branch of the water of life.

“If you have this, even if Gaos possesses you, you will not incur the wrath of the gods.”

The Water of Life is the offspring of the World Tree, the mother of all plants and fairies, spread by itself.

The world capital had the status of a god, so if it was under the care of its descendants, it could escape the Sephirot’s eyes.

“… … Aaron is also very good at theology.”

Nesty accepted the eggplant with a confused face.

All gods, including the Sephiroth, cannot invade the realm of other gods.

Anyone interested in faith knows this, but I never dreamed that it would be used in this way.

“When did you steal that again?”

Raven’s eyes widened as a branch of the water of life suddenly came out.

The nest of the water of life is a top-notch security area guarded by elite soldiers chosen by her.

It was a special order not to let anyone except the monarch, but it was absurd to see it jump out of Aaron’s arms.

“I didn’t steal this. He went in confidently and broke it.”

“Did you enter with confidence?”

“huh. When I greeted the guards there, they said, “Liberator!” and opened the way.”

“… … .”

Raven stared at the branch in Nesty’s hand in silence.

Even though he is the liberator of the forest, he opened the way to the ruler without saying a word.

It seemed that special education was needed.

[-Are you trying to avoid the Sephirot’s eyes with such a small branch? Rather cover the sky with the palm of your hand.]

Gaos, who had been looking at the party with pitiful eyes, fired at them roughly.

It is true that the branches of the water of life blind the Sephiroth, but only for a few minutes.

Even if he succeeds in infiltrating Hadman Castle, if the effect of the twig expires, the possession will be released or the saintess will die.

Time was running out to complete Aaron’s planned mission.

“A few minutes is enough. Thousands of monsters have escaped to attack the Shadow Forest, so there will only be small puppets in the castle.”

Aaron waved his hand as if to say not to worry.

What Azazel fears most is the complete resurrection of the Tree of Life in the Shadow Forest.

That’s why he raised an army as soon as he heard that the water of life had been revived.

If it was the usual Hadman Castle, every area would be teeming with his minions, but now that he had decided to send troops out, it would have been empty.

[-No, but… … .]

“I will try.”

As Gaos tried to argue again, Nesty interrupted.

“I feel very reluctant to entrust my body to such a monster, but what can I do if I can annihilate Azazel? Even the Sephiroth will understand my deviation.”

[-what? Eh, a monster? Have you finished talking now?]

Gaos, who was disapprovingly looking at the saintess who intervened, shouted as if in a fit.

I thought about it at best and took my side, but coming back is treated like a monster.

It felt like I had been stabbed in the back while taking the lead in blocking an arrow.

“Whoa, calm down.”

Aaron slowly stroked the excited Gaos.

[-sh*t. Get your hands off it right now! Am I a pet!]

Unlike his rough words, Gaos, who had been angry because of his anger, gradually regained his stability.

I don’t know why, but when I felt Aaron’s touch, the anger that burned like fire faded as if it had never happened.

‘Damn it!’

After a while, he finally cursed inwardly and closed his eyes.

To think that a young guy who hadn’t even had a coming-of-age ceremony would let go of his anger just by petting him a few times.

The face of the count, who once ruled the vast territory, was unreasonable.

“I have to go with you tomorrow, but you can’t creak like this. Don’t hate this guy too much. Even if you look like this, you are a good person at heart.”

“… … I will try.”

Nesty shook her head and nodded.

In fact, she knew that Gaos wasn’t such a bad guy.

However, because of his instinctive reluctance towards Rich, it seemed that it would take some time to attach affection.

“great. Then, we will set off tomorrow at dawn, so please rest well.”

After finishing the story, Aaron stroked Gaos a few more times before closing the map he had spread out.

Subjugation of demons who have sharpened their blades for a thousand years.

My heart was already pounding as I imagined what I would gain by killing him.
