Surviving as a Saint in Another World

Elf god (1)

I continued to raise the output and attacked the outer skin of the tree.

As the queen became a bio-bomb and was preparing to reunite, I was in a hurry as a devil worshiper.

[Stop the meaningless outbursts!]

Stop saying things that sound so strong.

Rather, it seems that the queen is advertising that the measures she is trying to take are effective.

I’d rather spit it out man.

bang!

[A pair of flying flies…!]

The devil worshiper turned his attention back to me even while he was concerned about the queen, as if my castle’s young ring finger was touching.

A crack appeared in the tree around the place where I was clinging, and a suction force began to occur as if trying to suck me in.

I patted him on the back to spit it out, and he went on a rampage saying he would eat more.

It’s not like he’s swallowing a bomb when he sticks it in his mouth first.

I struggled to resist the force of attraction.

As much as the devil worshipers are in a hurry, so am I.

If the queen blew herself up while the confrontation continued, what would be an ending as bleak as that?

I looked at the gap in the crack that was exerting suction.

A space where there is only infinite darkness that cannot be thought of as the inside of a tree.

Anyone who sees it will be able to guess that a bad future awaits them if they get sucked into it.

However, it’s another national rule to attack immortal monsters that regenerate infinitely from the inside.

It may not have been intentional, but the Queen is also attacking from within.

Besides, to get to the Queen’s place, it was more comfortable to be swallowed just like the Queen than to break the outer shell for the rest of her life.

I don’t think I’ll fall in a completely different place from where the queen is, like people who have a separate stomach for food and dessert.

The more I thought about it, the more I thought going inside the tree was not a bad decision.

Even in the worst case, if you find the queen, can’t you escape together by inducing the queen to spit out somehow?

nice

Having made up my mind, I began to adapt to the attraction without resisting it.

[what…?]

A devil worshiper who raises doubts about whether my judgment was unexpected.

At the same time, the cracks gradually started to get smaller.

Now that I see it, it seems that the goal really wasn’t to suck me in, but to tear me away from my body by threatening me.

Somehow, the attraction was not as strong as I thought.

Rather, I sped through the shrinking rift in an instant.

A feeling similar to jumping into water the moment you pass through a crack.

When I reflexively turned my head and looked back, there must have been a little time left before the cracks were all closed, but instead of seeing the outside, there was only pitch-black darkness.

It seems certain that it has entered the inside of the monster…

[You’re making stupid choices. Did you think that if you come inside me, there will be something sharp? Only facing death in the dark is the future prepared for you.]

Strange, now every word this devil worshiper says sounds like a dying scream.

Instead of wasting my nerves answering the soon-to-be-dead man, I looked around.

A pitch-black world where I can’t even see my hands and a world of insensitivity where I can’t feel anything as if my senses have disappeared.

I tried to open my mouth and make a voice, but nothing came out.

I wasn’t even sure if I had opened my mouth because I was numb.

It was a space where it was difficult for a normal person to be sure where he was or even if he was moving, let alone looking for the queen.

There must be a future like that, floating lost in the dark and being cooked to your liking by a devil worshiper.

As long as it’s general.

Is there

Without hesitation, I started moving in one direction.

It was clear that it was an artificially created darkness where even dark adaptation did not occur, but even in that darkness, I could clearly see the letters that should have appeared on the queen and the devil worshipers.

My eyes were too powerful to disorient me with mere darkness and numbness.

Even if I wasn’t sure that my body was moving, I could tell that it was moving steadily by looking at the distance from the letters that were shrinking.

As long as there were milestones to lean on, the darkness and numbness were only slightly uncomfortable.

[…]

Are you a bit scared?

I continued to move forward, laughing at the quiet demon worshiper.

aaagh!

Yes, it’s a little disappointing if it’s just darkness.

A monster appeared out of nowhere and began to circle around me, screaming, probably to check my progress.

Even in the darkness where nothing could be seen, the monster’s figure was strangely visible.

Is that all?

The grotesque monster with dozens of human faces hovered around me not only back and forth, but also up and down.

The voice also entered my ears strangely well.

“Help me. Help me.” “It’s too cold.” “It hurts. It hurts.”

Maybe it’s the ghosts that were eaten by this tree.

I stopped moving forward for a moment and looked at the souls expressing their pain with earnest voices.

“Help me, saint.” “Please have mercy on me too.” “Save us.”

The soul that seemed to believe that its own voice had been able to reach it secretly approached and uttered a more earnest and sorrowful voice.

He was even making a pitiful expression suitable for him.

I looked at the spirits as they approached me, and when I thought I was close enough, I reached out for them.

As if it was a signal, the spirits running towards my hand with bright expressions on their faces.

and the next moment.

The beam of the saint fired from my outstretched hand shattered the souls.

To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I stretched out my hand or sent the saint beam, but I guess I did it right when I saw that the souls were being shattered.

“Kyaaagh!” “Murderer! Murderer!” “Traitor! Killed us!”

The heads exploded in all directions began to scream and disappear.

[To kill without hesitation those who beg for help, you are a person more suited to a devil worshiper than a saint.]

A devil worshiper who said that as if he had been waiting for that appearance.

I’m so full of energy that I can’t even say anything. Do I look like a hogu?

Once I couldn’t see their names, it was clear that they weren’t alive.

I can’t say for sure because I haven’t yet met a soul that I’m sure is a real soul, but even if it’s true that the soul was actually sacrificed by this demon worshiper, it’s correct to say that it’s being bred by a demon worshiper as long as it’s trying to entice me in this darkness.

The mercy I owe them, then, is to deal with the devil worshipers and bring them to rest, not to be attacked for pity.

Besides, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for not being able to save someone who had already died, who was not a great saint and whose face I didn’t even know.

Did you still not come to your senses after going through my true heart in a fantasy?

From the beginning, I pretended to be possessed to make it easier to hit monsters wandering around.

Instead of raising my voice to be untouched by the demon worshiper’s stupidity, I set my sights on the letters again as signposts.

Originally, I might have had a bit of a personality, but it’s too bad that I can’t make a sound.

[What do you see? How can you move with such certainty in the direction here?]

The devil worshiper said that nervously, as if he couldn’t believe that I was moving toward the correct answer without losing my direction even after dealing with the ghost.

What do you see? Do you see your death?

The devil worshiper kept talking to me, as if he was trying to shake me even a little.

[You cheeky bastard…Do you think you won? Nothing has changed.]

The queen is about to self-destruct, but nothing has changed. You incompetent devil worshiper. Are you bragging about that?

Thinking about that, I finally arrived at the place where the letters floated, and I couldn’t see the queen confronting the devil worshiper.

Thanks to this darkness, I still knew that the queen was in front of me, but I couldn’t see her.

Now that I think about it, this is a bit difficult… I can’t convince the queen like this, and I can’t figure out what the situation is, so I can’t act recklessly.

I thought about what to do for a while, then reached out my hand toward the queen with the feeling of grabbing at least a straw.

And the next moment, another voice started to come into my head.

[Are you Ronan Saint?]

What kind of public good is my head? Why is everyone talking directly to my head?

Suddenly, I remembered the telepathic holy method that I had tried last time, but had erased from my memory after deciding that it was not practical because I had to make contact with the other person to use it without difficulty.

Come to think of it, it was a difficult situation to use that holy magic more usefully than now.

I sent a telepathic message straight to the queen.

[you’re right. Are you the queen of the elves?]

[yes. But why is Saint Ronan here? Did the saint also get hit by Benissa?]

Uh-huh, don’t doubt me. I’m not like the queens out there who look forward to taking their own lives without any countermeasures.

[I purposely jumped in to save the queen. Outside, all the expedition corps, including Iris-sama, have arrived. As long as we escape like this, we can safely defeat the demon worshipers.]

In order to stimulate the queen’s emotional aspect even a little, he explained the situation by mentioning the princess.

[Is that so… That child of Iris ended up here…]

[So stop sacrificing yourself even now. Even for Iris-sama.]

And even for my achievements.

[Thank you for coming this far to save me. Unfortunately, it is already too late.]

Yep.

Suddenly, the queen said such absurd things. After that, an image began to appear in my mind.

The body of an elf covered in blood, strangely resembling a princess, and the dark branches growing from the elf’s body.

And the tree branches were also intertwined with each other to form the shape of a certain elf.

[This…?]

[This is my current state. I’m already in a state where it’s hard to guarantee life or death, and at least I’ve succeeded in capturing the devil worshiper who tried to corrupt me. If I burn my body and soul like this, I will disappear from this world along with the devil worshipers who have dug into my body.]

Uh…it wasn’t that the devil worshiper didn’t spit out the queen, it was that the queen bit the devil worshipper and wouldn’t let go?

[If I don’t deal with the demon worshiper’s body in this way, I will have to deal with all the power she has gathered so far. If you’ve already fought her outside, you know what I mean.]

Is that why you took it this way?

The queen may have made her own decision after a lot of hard work.

If a decision to be made by a person who can even listen to God’s instructions bet the fate of the country, I should respect it too.

respect.

……

Ok, over respect end.

[Think about that later and leave alive.]

Now it’s my turn to push my opinion.

[…yes? Saint Ronan, I just said…]

[I heard you right. But that doesn’t sound like a reason why I should give up on the queen.]

It’s hard to guarantee life or death? There are two saints in one place, but if you want to save, is there someone you can’t save?

Do we have to deal with all the potential of a devil worshiper? In the first place, this side came with the determination to do so.

[What more reason do I have to give my life than this?]

You ask stupid questions.

[There is no such reason in the world.]

Where in the world is there a rational reason for a person to die?

There might be a really rational reason in the world, but I don’t want to find out.

Whether it was an absurd claim, or whether it was purely unexpected, the Queen made no reply.

In the first place, this queen needs to look more positively at the content of her divine revelation.

Even the gods wouldn’t want the person they chose to die.

So, he must have dared to mention his daughter while giving the revelation that predicted death.

If you ask your daughter and ask me to kill the demon worshiper with a pincer attack, everyone lived happily ever after. That’s the ending.

Since the fate of the kingdom is at stake, conservative judgments are understandable, but this queen needs to trust people other than herself.

They seem to regard the people around them as weak beings who need to be protected and protected.

It’s a tired mindset that I can’t understand as I want people around me to do my work for me.

Well, there must be someone like the Queen so people like me can live comfortably. One more reason to save the Queen.

Thinking so, I finished my thoughts.

In the first place, I had the basic premise of saving the queen and going out.

No matter what the queen says, I agree and have no intention of going back alone.

So obediently kidnap me… Huh?

When I came to my senses, the darkness just before had disappeared somewhere and only a wide meadow was in front of me.

All kinds of flowers were in full bloom in the meadow, and the scent of the flowers that rose from them seemed to put my mind at ease.

…What is it? An illusion? The tricks of a devil worshiper to come all the way here?

While I was looking around blankly, I heard a voice behind me.

“Even in Anheala’s realm, this is possible just by being in contact with my child. It’s amazing.”

Even though it was a normal voice, I felt a strange intensity, as if an unknown power was in the voice itself.

As I reflexively turned my body to face the owner of the voice, I froze.

uh… this…

The letters floating above the head of a person in the shape of a beautiful elf stood out more intensely than ever.

“Nice to meet you. Since you already know me, can I skip introducing myself?”

Of course, he couldn’t believe the letters that popped up on the head of the elf he had never seen before, confident that he knew him, so he checked again and again, but the letters didn’t change.

Ariel.

It’s amazing. It’s the same as the name of the elven god I know.

hahahaha, do these eyes really work for God?

When I came across a name I hadn’t even thought of, I could only think of escapist thoughts like that.

God? God at this timing?
