When Peaceful Times Cease To Exist : Attack On Church Of Arnelia, Part 4 — Guards of the Deep Green Palace

Translated by KaiesV

「Uwaah, here comes the strong one!」

 

Two Templar Knights stand in front of Doom, who looks fed up, drawing their swords.

 

「Don’t think you can get past from here, you evil spirits.」

「We will not let you pass this place even if it costs us our lives.」

「That’s a hot one.

This is a hot mess.」

 

Just as Doom swears and is about to make a move, a light ward suddenly surrounds Doom and his group.

Doom and his company kneel under the pressure.

 

「…Ugh.

What the hell is this」

「…Heavy.」

「Even though it was instantaneous, an ordinary evil spirit would be extinguished in an instant, but that’s a great feat to just kneel down.」

 

 

 

「What a baldie.」

「Who are you calling bald This one is shaved!」

「Only bald people say that.

They are mostly partially bald and shave all over to hide it, anyway.

They all know.

Ask the guy next to you what he really thinks.」

「Nuguguh, such a vile mouth you had! You’re truly an evil being!」

「That’s not how I get certified as a evil being.」

 

The monk who was pointed out was inwardly touched, but he could not admit it.

Moreover, as Doom pointed out, everyone around him knew about it, but he thought he was unnoticed.

 

「So, who are you, bald man」

「My name is Manadil.

I am one of the Three Archbishops of this Arnerian faith.

You’re not going one step further from here, boy!」

「Hot words from the top bald man, that’s wicked.

Uwaah!」

 

Suddenly the pressure of the warding increased even more.

Doom’s knees almost break.

 

「I see, you’re not just pure talk.」

「Let’s just let that whole petty mouth of yours vanish!」

「Ahaha, that wouldn’t be that easy.

Man Eater!」

「Here—!」

 

With the voice of Doom, Man Eater begins to transform.

Its appearance is quite different from the one Alfiris and her group fought, looking like a large insectivorous plant on top of octopus-like legs.

Her stature is also quite large, reaching 10 meters.

The wards that Manadil had put up had little effect on Man Eater, which have her own substance, and were easily broken by the sheer volume of Man Eater.

 

「What is that!」

「Fuh, careful, careful.

Then, let’s leave this to Man Eater and Insomnia, and we’ll go on ahead, Ossyria.」

「I want to play with that old man…」

 

Ossyria points to Manadil.

 

「Eh, do you like that kind of thing」

「…Is it okay」

「Can’t be helped then, I told you you were free to do what you wanted.

Now get it over with and come after me, my wife.」

「…」

 

However, Ossyria didn’t reply to Doom’s words and quickly heads toward Manadil.

 

「We’re just newlyweds, yet our marriage is getting cold already!」

 

Doom is worried about the threat of divorce, but still tries to move on to the back of the palace.

Manadil, Moldaëd, and Rafferty tried to hold them back, but their path was blocked by Insomnia’s hair and Ossyria.

 

「…You’re dealing with us.」

「Old man… Do you want to play」

「I’m soooooo huuuuuunnnggggrrryyyyy!!!」

「Kuh, I won’t—」

「No, inside is my brother.

Archbishop, let us put all our efforts this way!」

「…That’s inevitable.」

 

The three of them then repositioned themselves to face the three evil spirits.

 

***

 

Once he passed through the gate, he will not immediately enter the Deep Green Palace, he will walk through a 100-meter-long corridor, and then he will enter a full-fledged palace.

On either side of the crosswalk is a pond, which is partitioned into three levels.

The outer pond is filled with holy water, the middle pond with spirit water for restoration, and the front pond releases fish and plants for ornamental purposes.

Doom walks leisurely through the corridor, which is graceful to look at.

Doom also has the aesthetic sense to recognize beautiful things as beautiful, but he cannot love such holy attributes.

Also, more than that, there was something else that was bothering him now.

 

「(This is strange, no one’s pursuing I guess there are some very trustworthy people from here on out It may be beautiful in a normal way, but as a dark mage and an evil spirit, it’s nothing but a threat to me.

If I were to be pushed down into this, I would not be able to shake my strength as much as I would like.

If I’m not good, I may disappear.

It uses a lot of magic power… Hmm)」

 

As he was walking along, alerted to his surroundings, something splashed in the pond.

Doom wonders what it is, but when he looks at the pond, a wave suddenly arises and heads toward him.

 

「…Tsunami!」

 

A tsunami about twice the size of Doom rushes in from a pond where there should be no current.

Of course, since it was holy water, even Doom will suffer some damage if exposed to it.

 

「Wai—… Wait, wait, wait a second!」

 

Doom runs as fast as he can in a hurry.

And when he crosses the corridor, he slides in and manages to dodge the tsunami and looks back at the flooded corridor.

 

「What the hell was that… What」

 

As Doom tried to see what had happened, a water arrow flew from behind him.

Doom reflexively defended himself with magic barriers, but one was fixed through the barrier.

Penetrating barriers is a magic that is many levels more powerful than the mages outside.

Suddenly, he returned his eyes to the side of the Deep Green Palace and saw a sphere of water floating in the air, and on top of it was a mermaidMermaid with translucent blue hair whose lower body was a fish and the upper body was human.

She looked to be in her late teens in human terms, and was flanked by a female elf swordsman.

She was tall, with long ears, somewhat tight eyes, blonde hair and gold eyes, a typical elf appearance.

 

「Why there’s a mermaid and an elf here again」

「I guess we are the guardians of the Deep Green Palace.」

「From here on out, it is no place for a person like you to go.

Back off, my servant.」

「Hah, now you’ve come with a gentleman! You cheeky elf.

Women are supposed to be ladylike, and innocent.」

「What!」

「Calm down, Roxanne-chan.」

 

The mermaid brushes her hair back with one hand while taunting the elf.

 

「I told you not to put『-chan』on it, Beliace!」

「…I guess I can still talk to the Mermaid.

Is Beliace good enough for you」

「I don’t remember being called out of the blue by a younger man I’ve never met before, boy.」

「Excuse me.

My name is Doom, and I’ll be seeing you later, lady.」

「That’s very kind of you.

I am Beliace and this elf is Roxanne.

But you don’t need to know me after that.

You are going to die here.」

 

Beliace responds to Doom’s polite curtsy with harsh words.

 

「I can’t have that.

I’ve just gotten to know a beautiful woman.

Will you play with me」

「Not a chance, I don’t know what you would do to me if I played with a decidedly undecent being like you.」

「No, no, don’t make a big deal out of it, you know I’m just going to do a little live dissection.

I’ll try to make sure you don’t die easily, so you can live for a month if you try hard enough, okay」

「…I knew it, you’re sick in the head.」

「Correction, I’m a gentleman.

You’re just a lowlife!」

「Oh no— don’t be shy now, don’t compliment me so much, okay」

 

Without warning, several water arrows from Beliace’s magic fly at the laughing Doom.

Mermaids are skilled in water magic, so they can exercise simple magic without chanting.

Every mage knows that this simple magic is powerful enough to easily blow off a human head or so.

Doom, on the other hand, dodges the spell with a flutter.

However, Roxanne takes advantage of the gap to deliver the inevitable blow.
