Johannes Reformation War (3)
“Sister! What on earth happened? I heard you were caught by the emperor while carrying out a secret mission given by the Pope? I wanted to find out what happened, but I couldn’t send anyone to Adria… Furthermore, I couldn’t hear any more news from there… Furthermore, I was so worried that I couldn’t sleep. You didn’t even sleep well!!”
Angelina also shed tears as she hugged her tearful sister, saying she prayed for her safety every day.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were this worried… There were some circumstances…”
“Anyway, I’m glad that my sister is safe… Are you coming back now? Since you’re not here, the Pope is doing whatever he wants!! He’s randomly raising taxes saying we need to build more temples for Ikaris, and he’s not even giving us proper meals and making workers work. Moreover, according to secret rumors, I am the head of the Inquisitors… But my sister, who is a saint, cannot correct this. I have to give it to you!!”
Angelina smiled and then shook her head, seeing her sister getting angry, saying that this was not the true intention of Monk Ikari.
“I came back for a while… But I won’t come back forever. I found a new master to settle down with. Hehe”
“… What do you mean? A new master who will settle down? You can’t say that he betrayed Ikaris-sama? Are you saying that the saint who served Ikaris-sama more than anyone else betrayed him?”
When Angelina said that she was her new master, Jeanne immediately pushed her sister’s arms away from her and widened the distance between her and her younger sister’s face, who loved her older sister.
Changed to a face.
Then she picked up the inquisitors’ axes that were lying on the floor and aimed them at her beloved sister, Angelina.
“Why on earth!! What did my sister, who was a saint, lack? Could it be that she apostatized to beg for her life after being captured by the emperor? That a saint who followed and revered Ikaris more sincerely and righteously than anyone else would apostatize? How can you? My sister has received more love and blessings from Ikaris than anyone else!!”
Jeanne, who infused her giant ax with her divine power and created a purifying flame, glared at Angelina with all her anger.
“Say it quickly!! No matter how much my sister does, I cannot forgive her! I will cut down the apostate with an ax and burn her with flames to purify her sins!! No exceptions can be made for this… Everything is done for Ikaris-sama, and for the fallen sister. For the soul…!!”
Angelina was so calm despite the crazy eyes of her sister, who threatened to purify her with fire, no matter how much she loved her sister.
“Hohoho, Jeanne, I think you have some misunderstanding… My sister is not an apostate. She is still Icaris’ saint. Rather, the apostates are the corrupt Pope and the cardinals who follow him. This sister is following the master’s orders and Icaris. “I returned to Johannes at the request of”
“… Master? Who do you follow other than Ikaris-sama? That an apostate like that calls herself Ikaris-sama’s saint… And there’s no way Ikaris-sama would ask an apostate for a favor… After all, my sister is an apostate. If that’s the case, I will cut you down and purify you with this sacred flame!!”
“Ha~ It might be a bit difficult to make you understand the master’s will… In that case, I guess I should at least tell you Ikaris-sama’s will. You might get a little hurt… But don’t worry, I’ll treat you. Jeanne.”
“How dare you!! An apostate brings up Monk Ikari’s name out of her mouth!! And an apostate says she will win? Her divine power must have diminished tremendously… If she thought I would look after her just because she was her sister, she was sorely mistaken!! “
Huh~!
Jeanne raised the white-flaming ax with her divine power and swung her ax at Angelina without any forgiveness.
‘There is no way that the sister who betrayed Monk Ikari could stop my axe… But her sister’s soul will be purified by the flame and return to Monk Ikari!!’
Jeanne’s ax, which she swung with great confidence, was so easily blocked by Angelina’s protective shield.
“Uh, how…?”
Hehe, didn’t you say that this sister never betrayed Ikaris-sama? Isn’t this divine power proving that what I said is true?”
“Hmph! That kind of shield… I will tear it down in one fell swoop with Ikaris-sama’s flames and this axe!!”
When Jeanne, who had been taken aback by the attack being blocked by an unexpected shield, came to her senses again, holy flames rose up once again, surrounding Jeanne’s axe, and the air shook with heat that seemed to melt everything around it.
Despite the tremendous force, Angelina’s composure did not waver at all, so Jeanne grabbed her ax with both hands and kicked it into the ground.
“Please take this too!! Sister!! I will tell you what the end is for the traitor who betrayed Ikaris!!”
As a huge ax flew towards her with tremendous wind pressure, Angelina also flew into the forest to avoid the ax.
“It looks like they were trying to eliminate space for me to swing the ax by going into the forest… That was a mistake in judgment, sister!!”
Whoa!!
Bang!! Kwaang!! Quad deud deuk!! Kwasik! Kwazizik!!
As Jeanne began swinging her battle-ax indiscriminately, the huge trees in the forest were literally shattered, and Jeanne chased after Angelina at high speed.
“There!! Sister! Since she was once a saint, she will be burned at the stake right away without questioning her!! If her faith in Monk Ikari remains the same, my flame will also forgive her, so there is no problem!!”
‘Well, but was she this fast? She said, ‘There’s no way my sister has this kind of combat experience?
As she felt that the distance between her and Angelina was not closing at all, Jeanne sensed something was off about her. But she couldn’t stop now, so she continued to chase Angelina, swinging her axe.
‘What? Come to think of it… Her sister is heading towards Lake Hauril! If she continues that way, a cliff will appear… She won’t be able to avoid it anymore!!
Her Jeanne pursued Angelina with confidence, and when a cliff finally appeared in front of her, and she stopped, her Jeanne smiled and slowly slowed down.
Hehe, what should I do? Sister? There’s nowhere to run now? It looks like she used all her remaining divine power to deploy a shield and escaped all the way… But don’t worry, sister. Even though she became an apostate, I still love you so much… I will purify my sister’s impure soul without pain!!”
Angelina smiled as she looked at her sister, who raised a huge flame on her ax as if she was going to burn her at the stake.
“Phew~ I’m sorry, but… Your flames aren’t scary at all. Besides, I have a mission from my master and a request from Ikaris… So I can’t waste any more time. Jeanne.”
“It’s no use saying that!! There is no god other than Ikaris, and Ikaris’ priests are the only priests of God!!”
“Hehe, no, there are gods besides Ikaris, and priests of all gods have the right to follow their respective gods.”
Jeanne’s eyes widened as she saw Angelina directly denying her doctrine. And then she struck down her ax, engulfed in the flame of her divine power, towards Angelina with all her might.
“This apostate!!! By the will of Ikaris, I will execute divine punishment here!!”
In Jeanne’s attack containing all of her divine power, a white flame of divine power exploded and engulfed Angelina.
But Angelina faced the fire sent by her Jeanne without any defense, and Jeanne shed a single tear as she watched her own fire engulf her Angelina.
“… Goodbye, sister. I don’t know how she became an apostate, but… Monk Ikari will purify her sister’s soul… And… I am grateful to her so far…”
A single tear rolled down her cheek as she reminisced about her memories with Angelina. Jeanne turned her body away, wiping away her tears with her hand.
And after a while, Jeanne had to look behind her again because of her enormous presence.
“W-what is this!!”
“Didn’t you tell me that your flames aren’t scary at all… And she said she’s still Ikari’s saint… Hohoho”
Jeanne took a step back with an astonished look on her face as she watched Angelina slowly walk out amid the flames of her divine power that were still burning.
“Huh, how could an apostate be in there…”
“Oh? Didn’t you say that your flame would forgive her sister if her faith in Monk Ikari remained the same?”
Soon, Jeanne broke into a cold sweat as she felt an enormous divine power emanating from Angelina that seemed to crush everything around her.
“Don’t be ridiculous… There’s no way an apostate could handle such enormous divine power… What kind of magic did you use?!!!”
“Hex magic? Huhuhu, do you seem like the kind of person who would rely on something like that? And…”
As soon as Angelina finished speaking, holy angel wings sprouted from her back, Angelina’s body rose into the air, and an enormous divine power enveloped her body.
“S-No way… Archangel…?”
Hehe, you recognize me. Head of the Heresy Inquisitor. I am Metatron, the Archangel of Destruction. In obedience to the will of my master and Ikaris, I am with Saint Angelina…”
“Oh, that’s ridiculous… How could Lord Ikaris… Do that… Then the doctrine I’ve believed in so far… What about the people I judged…”
Looking down at Jeanne, who was looking at her hands in disbelief, Metatron snapped his fingers.
Taaak!
Then, feeling the immense divine power of her archangel pressing down on her, Jeanne lost consciousness, and Metatron carefully carried her to the garrison near the border, where her army of Juno was in ambush.
Threw her body away.
