'I'm sorry...... My power was not extended... to persuade the Virgin...'

'No, he said he didn't need to apologize. I'm glad you're okay for now. "

Throughout my reading, I was told the whole story of what had happened since Ceres went to the temple.

Apparently, she failed to persuade the Virgin Eliez, and on the contrary, she was judged to be brainwashed by the Evil God.

You think it's now locked inside the temple?

'Oh, yes! Dear Lucas, run away now...... Huh! Perhaps the Holy Knights will come to the Mansion soon to capture you!

Ceres complains in a sad voice.

What am I talking about, I sighed.

'Don't be an idiot. You can't just leave Ceres and get away with it.'

As it is, she may be executed for crimes committed against heretics.

"I'll be right over there"

"Become...! And the temple is always guarded by more than a hundred holy knights, right? He's a user of other god's things than me, and it's impossible to break in! If you do it badly, even Master Lucas will be caught... '

'When it does, it's when it does. It would be far better to be caught and executed if I could live forever at your expense. "

If you're going to live that pathetic way of abandoning the person you swore to take responsibility for and running away, you better die.

Even an old man like me has an obsession.

Well, that being said, I don't want to get caught if I can.

"Dear Lucas......"

I told Aria and the others once I had separated the conversation.

"I'm about to enter the temple to help Ceres. But..."

"I'm coming, too."

"Me too!

"Of course I'm gonna do that, too."

It is proclaimed orally before it is finished.

Just looking into those eyes, I realized that it was no longer in vain where I said it.

"... I don't have a choice"

If this happens any longer, it will be a total war with the Temple.

Even so, I'm not willing to occupy the temple, and if I rescue Ceres, I'm going to run away.

"How about caging the Virgin with pleasure and pawning her hands! Then every temple belongs to the Lord! Plus, you're a ladies' constituent, and you're not gonna finish a giant harem all at once!

Wenus' terrible suggestion is ignored as an example.

'This! Why don't you at least think about it!

That's when the mansion rings its bell.

Along with his immediate yelling voice, he heard heavy footsteps.

The servant screams.

When we went out into the hallway, there was an armed group at the front door of the mansion.

They are all women, dressed in the same silver armor as the Celes.

I guess they are also holy knights belonging to the temple.

One of them noticed us and approached us.

"Are you Lucas? I'm Captain of the Third Knights of the Holy Knights, Gina-Zilgaret. I'm going to ask you to accompany me to the temple."

Behind her, nearly ten Saints were already in a state of battle so that they could move into action at any time.

I can help you, but it seems to be an abdominal build-up that will take you.

"Oh. That's good. But we're on our own, so we don't need your guidance."

You read our words of war, Gina snorted.

"Ha, I don't know if it's an evil god's sword, but my god's equipment is this spear. Never miss the prey you're after, have the ability to be" in the middle "-"

"Bye."

"-!?

Before Zeldia finished, we dived into the shadow of Kursche's feet.

"Gone!?

"Where the hell!?

"Look for it, you guys! We should still be close!

I hear amazement from the outside.

'That's as convenient an ability as ever.... although I have no idea which way to go in the dark'

"This way."

Kursche will pull my hand.

She's the only one who can stay in the shadows without losing her sense of direction.

But thanks to you, I was able to avoid fighting on the doorstep of that narrow mansion.

If we keep going all the way through the shadows, it's possible to reach the temple without anyone finding it... but it just doesn't work that well.

"From here on out, the shadows seem to be interrupting."

Only in the shadows can you travel.

In other words, only where the shadows continue can we move on.

For once, it seems possible to create a shadow itself, but it is drained severely and can only be maintained for a short time again.

"Yeah, looks fine"

Krusche turned his face from the shadows to the ground and checked with me on the outside.

When I went outside, it was an unpopular alley there.

From there I ran on the ground.

Leaving passers-by looking back on something, we rushed to the Grand Temple, almost in the heart of the city.

"Look. The entrance is closed today."

As Aria said, the gate to the temple, which was open the last time I came, was now rigidly closed.

In front of the gate was a large crowd of visitors for worship, and apparently, suddenly, access to the hall was restricted.

... Well, it must be our fault.

The captain of the Holy Knights suddenly went down the path of heresy.

The inside of the temple is a fuss, and I guess I stopped admitting the general faithful today, without being able to afford to respond to the worship.

"What do we do?

"We're going to jump over. - Luna, can we go?

"No problem."

When Luna revealed the heavenly dome, it took the form of a horizontal defeat.

"I want you caught"

As I was told, we each grabbed a three-day moon-shaped bow.

Shortly afterwards, a tremendous upward airflow occurred, pushing our bodies up into the air.

"Wow! It's really flying!

Kursche raised an exclamation.

With that said, it was just me and Luna flying in that oak forest.

"Hey, what is that...?

"Is that a bird... Huh?

"No, you're human!?

I hear amazing voices coming from my feet.

Supported by a bow like a bird with wings spread, we jumped across the gate all at once.

And when you land on the temple grounds,

"Oh, I left Ku"
