i used to be a devil

The previous rumors gradually died down in the ensuing days.

After all, the bishop took the lead in pursuing this matter, and the church did not give a definite answer, but most people were relatively relieved.

"So, that monster should have been killed?"

After the previous mess passed, the learning process of their apprentice class was back on track.Almost a month has passed in a flash. The days when I was only listening to theory classes or meditating are finally gone forever. The forbidden magic circle around me was also unlocked a few days ago. Those who can’t feel the magic power except in the meditation room Elemental apprentices are eager to try.

However, unlike those spell apprentices who were all focused on themselves, Ren's attention was still on Yi Rang—and he was very persistent in providing this big man who must have a lot of background in his eyes. gossip.

For example, the recent actions of the church, or the follow-up results after chasing the flame beast some time ago...

It can be seen that most of his energy is put on these things. Although Yi Rang is not interested at all, he can't help but find it interesting to listen to the other party's endless teasing.

This creates an eerie scene.

The kid from the slums always sticks to the young master of the Doart family and chatters endlessly...

Everyone felt that he was flattering each other.

But even so, no one else came up to say anything.

——That is, I feel that the way the former sick man looks at people with a smile always makes people feel a little guilty.

So no matter how uncomfortable I am, I dare not go forward to find trouble.

This is the same as usual. In the current spell practice course, others are piled up with several people, and there is a large open space around Yirang and Ren.

It's like a isolation zone, no one dares to approach even if it's crowded.

"Probably not, I heard that he ran away."

Stepping on the magic gathering array that Yi Rang had just drawn casually under his feet, after Ren answered this sentence, after standardizing every detail as taught in the previous class, he recited the spell recorded in the book aloud, and directed towards the distant Target throws a fireball.

The fire magic element in the air was mobilized and flew out suddenly.

The single meditation class was over, and Xiu Gumi, who went with Rosemil and the others last time, came back and took over their teaching matters again.

Now is the time to practice.

Yi Rang was watching - there was no way, firstly, he was really not interested in setting off fireworks, and secondly, he still wanted to continue playing.

"That's it."

Yi Rang responded casually, and turned to look at the target whose upper part disappeared after being hit by Ren's fireball technique, "It seems that the effect of the magic circle I asked you to use before is somewhat reflected."

"..." Ren, who originally wanted to ask him why he reacted so flatly to what he said, was successfully changed after hearing this sentence. He looked down at his hand, then at the victim The target that he had smashed, turned his eyes away to look at other places, and said cautiously: "Will I be too ostentatious like this?"

When she turned around, she gave him a look of "what are you talking about?", but Yi Rang quickly realized, and immediately changed her words: "No, I think you are a genius at most."

"..."—Boss, the look in your eyes just now must not mean that, I see disgust.

……

Time just went by.

A month has passed since the sudden appearance of a magical beast in the city of Cassitia last time.

The people in charge of various places, and the street guards in the city also pinched their fingers to draw the time on the calendar during this period. When the thunder with rain rang, it was time to enter the rainy month, and the entire continent They were all on alert.

The beast tide is approaching.

"Your Excellency the Bishop."

"...Arrow."

Rosemere froze for a moment when he heard the footsteps of the other party and looked over.It wasn't until he heard what the other party said, that he relaxed a little.

This small unnaturalness was quickly covered up. The stiff-looking knight in front of him didn't react too much. Instead, he seemed to be thinking about something else. After Rosemil responded, his eyes lowered and drooped. On the ground, "I'm sorry to take the liberty to come here, but regarding the arrangements for this year's response to the beast horde, I think——I'm not very suitable for the job."

Elro, the former knight leader of the church, was apparently deprived of his position many years ago because of the church's actions against the traitors and sent to a humble town of Boulterton.

After that, he encountered the betrayer who descended on the three-star mage Yiran Field.

In other words, his appearance at that time, from a certain point of view, was the main reason why the traitor came to Iran Field, but to get to the bottom of it, the problem still lies with the church that sent him to .

If you take this question out and look at it, if Elro was not sent there at that time, it would be someone else.

There's not much to discuss about this.

But even though this is the case, in fact, for Elro, this matter still makes him a little cornered.Because of this, when the matter was over, he was recalled back to the imperial capital, and when Rosemere became the bishop and was appointed as the head of the Knights of the Church again, he still felt a little awkward.

Seeing that he suddenly stopped talking, Rosemil pointed to the seat near the coffee table and motioned him to sit down, "What's the matter?"

Elro was stunned for a few seconds, but he didn't move. He just stood on the spot and adjusted his stance, and said to Rosemere seriously: "Yes, there are arrangements for this year's beast tide—in fact, due to With my current situation, I don't think I can be the team leader this year."

"That's it?"

"..."

Rosemere's calm reaction made Elro wonder whether it made any sense to bring this matter up on purpose.

However, since last year, the situation that has become more serious this year made him have to think about this matter-he has often experienced inexplicable memory gaps in the past two years.

Often when I woke up last time, my memory was still two days ago, but when I woke up again, I found that two days had passed.

Sometimes I have to face the lost two days and the inexplicable things that happened, I can't figure out the things reported by the subordinates, and I can't give a timely response...

When the frequency became more and more frequent, Elro gradually began to doubt his physical condition.

Especially this year's beast tide is coming, if he is still like this during this period, he doesn't think he can be very responsible for the direction of this matter.

In this situation, facing the beast tide, the most direct point is to face the fragmentation of information-this point is the reason why he can be denied without analysis.

"I know about your situation—" Rosemil looked at the knight with a tense expression in front of him, and for some reason suddenly remembered what someone told him before, that knights are very rigid guys.

I don't know how to work around it, admit death, and...

"Your Excellency," Elro looked at Rosemere's indifferent reaction, and took a step forward. His expression was a little irritable. He obviously couldn't agree with Rosemere's calm attitude, but he thought it was because he failed to convince the other party. , "It's not that I'm worrying unfoundedly, but this matter."

"Elroe." Rosemere interrupted Elroe's words and the subsequent statement in a steady voice, and he took a few steps towards the other party, "I know very well what happened to you, the time you lost, and the time you lost. memory."

Those who suddenly found that something was vacant, but didn't know what they had done.

I found myself ordering some inexplicable things, but I couldn't remember them no matter how I looked back.

Obviously, the memory still stays a few days ago, but it turns out that it is now a few days later...

All this, Rosemere knew very well what was going on.

It has to be said that he knew very well what was going on.

People are selfish, aren't they?

When he was in Boulterton Town, Socrates had already awakened, but he just continued to pretend that he hadn't woken up or arrived, quietly dormant under the shadow of Rosemere's soul.

Not until after the battle at Rosemere and what then befell Ian Field.

Afterwards, Yiran disappeared, and the only person who woke up was Yiran Field, and Rosemere returned to the imperial capital. After doing everything, Socrates formally talked to him for the first time and made a request.

Prepare a new Advent container for him.

Rosemere remembered that he chose Elro at the time, and when he used Elro's body, he seemed to have chosen another one from the Imperial Academy...

He didn't know these details very well, but he knew the general idea.

So for the situation that Elro said at this time, Rosemere obviously knew what was going on.

When the first god is not going to appear in this world with him as the point of descent, Rosemil naturally has no reason to hold the other party on him—or in other words, he has his own expectations.

According to the scriptures, the first god will always appear in this world together with the first messenger.

He was waiting for another figure to appear again.

It doesn't matter if you say he's hypocritical, or you say he's inexplicable, he's just waiting for the possibility——

On a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, he was still able to see that figure, perhaps in a skin that he could not recognize at all, but it appeared in front of him again.

Then say what?

"All of this is preordained, but I'm sorry that I can't tell you the specific reason." Rosemil raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the knight in front of him, bringing back the slightly diffused thoughts. But he said to Elro in front of him: "But all of this will not affect your performance in the battle of the beast tide. Please trust me on this point, I can guarantee it to you."

"……Yes."
