16 – #04. Pilgrim without eyes (3)

There was a park nearby, so we moved there, and the pilgrim sat across from us.

As the sun started to fall, the area around the park was relatively quiet, so there was nothing uncomfortable about sitting face to face and having a conversation.

Three paladins guarded the pilgrim’s back.

Speaking of paladins, they are basically the core force of intercourse that protects the territory of the eastern demon tribe, and those who can deal with the demon tribe alone with a human body.

I don’t know, but I remember hearing that they were difficult to deal with because they basically had a fairly strong body and s*x.

“When you’ve been around for a long time, you’re bound to see a lot of people. In the meantime, seeing people who care for each other like this makes me happy.”

I was a little taken aback by the words of seeing.

I don’t know how to say this, but when I looked at his eyes up close, there was really nothing there, just empty holes.

But he kept his mouth shut because I also had Lenny, who had lost his sight, and he had no reason to make such rude remarks in front of the person concerned.

“Of course, this body has no eyes.”

But the pilgrim brought out his words with a gentle smile.

“However, since it was all dedicated to God, there is no need to regret it, and instead of it, I gained a perspective to see the essential.”

“Essence?”

“It is safe to say that it is a soul. In our church, it is called the human essence and the human form. This nogu judges the world with it.”

It is the soul.

I suddenly wondered what form my soul was, but I didn’t bother to ask. I was anxious, and I didn’t want to borrow someone else’s mouth to define the essence.

“In that sense, the two souls were very special.”

“Is that so?”

“They are intertwined as if they are precarious. Among them, the brother’s soul is a bit peculiar. Have you been sad lately?”

Can the soul even know such things?

Or is it just that intercourse is a rather unusual group? In that part, I remembered her past conversation with her saintess, but I couldn’t figure it out because she didn’t often bring up stories related to s*xual intercourse.

At first, I didn’t even know that humans could see the soul.

“Can you tell me that?”

“The spirit form was shaking. Usually, such a case would be a case where emotions fluctuate greatly due to anger, passion, or sadness. Among them, the flow of sadness is large but not fast, so it is reflected calmly.”

I had nothing to say.

I thought she was just a pilgrim without eyes, but I never dreamed that we would meet by chance and hear stories like this.

Lenny sat next to me and quietly held her hand.

“Sadness is a poison that eats up emotions, but at the same time it is also an accelerator for human growth. If you can’t stand it, you’ll just collapse, but you seem to be a person with a strong foundation.”

“No.”

It’s not like that.

I was only supported by the people around me and barely survived.

In the past, when I fell into this world and did not know anything, I was able to survive and endure by relying on the ability of fascination, and now I found the reason for living because there are people who affirm or deny me.

If you think about it, what I have right now, the emotions I feel. Even the reason to move forward was given to me by others.

It doesn’t make sense that I’m strong.

“Brother. Life is always an ascetic road. Life is always hard, and unfortunately our God has given humans the emotions and the sense to suffer.”

“Penance… ….”

Many thoughts crossed my mind.

To be honest, I don’t believe in God itself, but if there really is such a thing as God, I wanted to ask you something.

Why did you give me this ability called fascination?

The ability to manipulate and manipulate others to control their emotions.

Humans couldn’t have such a thing, and the ability that I couldn’t control only remained as a curse that ate away at me.

If this is penance, then it is a great penance.

The question is, why is penance involving other people?

“I don’t know.”

“Heh heh, you don’t have to think too deeply about this old man’s words. I am also the body of a monk who went on a pilgrimage to find the way, so how can you be confident in that statement?”

The old man smiled softly.

He looked like a benevolent old man, except for the fact that his white, gray hair fluttered slightly in the wind, and the place where his eyes were supposed to be was empty and alien.

“But be careful not to be eaten by the feeling of sadness.”

If you still close your eyes, that situation will be reproduced.

The image of a woman jumping off the wall while I was watching.

And I couldn’t forget the image of Neira flowing helplessly in my arms.

“Unlike other passionate emotions, it is a poison that slowly dissolves and absorbs people. It will be impossible for anyone to completely shake it off, but you cannot move on if you get caught up in it.”

Nera said something similar to me.

Don’t dwell on the past, regret it but don’t stop and keep going. Look to the future and just move forward.

She had the words she left as she was dying, but she wasn’t sure she would be able to keep them.

“…… This. It seems that I was just interested in the appearance of the two of you, and I spoke to you, but it seems that I have been talking without use. I sincerely apologize for touching your painful corner.”

The pilgrim bowed her head and stood up.

“If the words are too long, that is also excessive meddling. Your emotions are obviously fluctuating, but you seem to have good people around you.”

A small smile bloomed on her wrinkled face.

“Still, I’m glad. I feel that you are a person who understands sadness and can sympathize with someone, so the heart of this old man is a little relieved.”

“What do you mean?”

“One last thing. I speak his word.”

In an instant, light rose from the empty eyeball.

A bright white light.

The pilgrim said that she dedicated her eyes to God, but the group of white lights shone brightly toward her as if replacing her eyeballs.

“Everything will return to where it should be, and we are ready to receive a new saint in our church.”

Leaving incomprehensible words, the pilgrim and paladin left.

Didn’t you just come to talk for a while?

I was personally acquainted with her saintess, and she was also a victim of my fascination, so it was necessary to be careful about her contact with the group called s*xual intercourse.

Of course, it cannot be avoided forever.

Obviously, I will have to come to my own conclusions and face them, but I am not yet ready to face the future.

Baja Empire.

It was the only country in the continent to use the name Empire, and compared to other countries, it was a country that maintained an unrivaled peak in national power and military power.

Therefore, the Imperial Palace also boasted a grandeur that was different from any other building in terms of size, scale, and splendor.

Mea sat with her legs crossed in the inner sitting room and let out a sigh.

Originally, she was meant to be by Seo’s side, and she actually remembered that his mental state was very unstable until just before her departure, but even she could refuse her Empress’ urgent call. There was no

The problem is that he calls them and makes them wait for a long time.

Her eyebrows furrowed at this, and it wasn’t until an hour had passed that the empress appeared from the inside.

Long black hair.

Her golden eyes shone brightly even in shadows, and in addition to her bored expression, her long legs stood out.

“Are you late?”

“A lot.”

Even though Mea was dealing with such an empress, she didn’t think it was a big deal, and the empress didn’t care about it and sat across from her with a smile.

“I couldn’t help it. Originally, she wanted to come as soon as possible, but during an internal meeting, the conversation dragged on a lot.”

“Whose head did you break with that ax again?”

“That wasn’t my intention either. I tried to get things done quickly, but there are too many opponents to arms expansion, so stop.”

That’s why she broke her servant’s head.

At that point, Mea shook her head in disgust.

Recently, the Empress has been fighting a war.

Still, at the time Seo was there, her nerves were all directed towards him, so there was no war, but after he left the palace, seven wars broke out in five years.

“Why again this time?”

“Recent s*xual intercourse movements are very disturbing.”

Of course, Mea, who has access to all kinds of information on the continent, knew it.

She has been steadily recruiting servant knights and general soldiers, along with the expansion of paladins, along with the word crusade, led by Saint Cecilia.

“Isn’t that pink head going crazy again?”

“I’d like to think so, but wouldn’t it be awkward to challenge religion as a shield in s*xual intercourse? I don’t think there’s going to be a war against humanity unless the group called s*x is really crazy, but there’s nothing wrong with being prepared.”

She broke her bureaucrat’s head for objecting to the arrangements.

It was nonsense to her, but Mea let out a sigh, knowing that she was the Empress herself, and she terribly hates anyone who disobeys her.

“So. The reason you called me is because of that preparation?”

“No, it’s a different issue apart from that.”

After that, the Empress stood up slightly and held out her hatchet in her hand.

It is still dripping with human blood.

As Mea looked at the axe, the Empress slowly opened her mouth.

“Human beings have their own roles. Just as I take on the role of the emperor and lead this empire, the people must obey it, and the soldiers must advance without fear in battle with the enemy. And it is the same for you.”

She continued, adjusting the handle of her ax a few times.

“I, Jim, must have asked you to find out information about Seo.”

“It definitely was.”

“Then….”

It took a second for the ax to cut the table in the audience room in two.

Mea didn’t react, knowing that the blade wasn’t pointed at her, but she sharpened the blade and the ax that fell cut the table and landed on the floor with a loud roar as it lodged itself in her marble.

“That information? I know it’s already been five years.”

“Maybe Seo will live hiding his face. Even if he puts on the status quo, there is no proper accusation, and he is dead or alive….”

“I lived.”

At that point, the empress affirmed.

“He couldn’t have died.”

“I am very sure of things I am not sure of.”

“Jim’s things die on their own? Do you think he will forgive it?”

Her words were arrogant.

The problem is that the unfounded and arrogant words are true, but Mea had no intention of bringing Seo-leu to the imperial palace again, so she shrugged her shoulders, trying hard to put off her composure.

“As long as you are alive, I will definitely find you. Does that mean you don’t trust me?”

“No, no. How can I not trust you?”

At this, the empress shook her head and smiled.

“Those who covet my things are killing everyone, but in the midst of that, I saved you. What could be the reason? Jim recognizes your ability, and also relies heavily on you.”

“I am also doing my best. If it is alive, it will surely catch its tail someday.”

“I pray for the struggle. It seems like her patience will soon reach a limit.”

Crazy b*tch.

Mea thought so with her whole heart.

She is a woman who is stronger than any other woman she has ever met with Seo.

In fact, since Seo left, she said she would take responsibility for it, including the maid who served Seo, and killed all beings except those she could not bear to kill.

“I hope you find it soon.”

The Empress turned her back after she said that much, and Mea looked at her back for a moment and was lost in her thoughts.

What is certain is that we must not let that woman and Seo meet again.

As she thought so, the empress turned her head and continued as if she had just remembered.

“Oh, and just in case, don’t try to do anything weird.”

“Weird thing?”

“Looking for it and then hiding it, or monopolizing it alone.”

Those golden eyes shone brightly.

Menacingly, yet savagely.

“I think I would be very disappointed if I did that.”

“…… I will remember.”

The look in her eyes bothered me, as if she was saying she knew everything, but Mea calmly nodded her head.
