Uncle Hunter’s Login Life 281

Chapter 281 – Distrust

When I went out of the mansion, there were 8 knights in gorgeous white armor standing imposingly in the garden.

Among them, I saw an article that particularly caught my attention.

A beautiful blonde, golden-eyed female paladin.

And Albert lying in the garden.
It seemed that there was a quarrel with the paladin.

‘Albert didn’t even know about the fountain and came out… Did he finally die?’

Eileen will be a bit sad… But there is nothing she can do about it.
Isn’t this also the fate of those who eat knives?

However, a knight I didn’t know was also scattered around.
It wasn’t a paladin.
The armor she was wearing was different.

‘Where is that guy again…’

“This is a knight named Henri who came yesterday escorted by Lady Flora.”
Marie, who quickly caught my question, told me who he was.

“I guess the escort driver wasn’t Melissa alone?”

“Yes, he followed Flora-sama too.”

It doesn’t matter that Melissa lives here, but she wouldn’t have anything to do with that guy who couldn’t even come into the mansion…
If there’s nothing to do, I’ll go back on my own, I guess I was just messing around and got involved.
Unfortunately, the lord lost a valuable knight.

‘Well, I didn’t kill him. There’s no need to be sorry.’

But as a bounty, let’s grab at least one F-class magic stone and send it to him.

Anyway… These paladins…
They were good guys.
I got rid of Albert, who was like a thorn in the eye.

“Relax. I put the matter in my hands. Their lives will not be affected.”

A female paladin who appears to be the leader has reported the sad news.

“Tsk…”

Unknowingly, I clicked her tongue.

‘Do something useless…’

The feeling that had gotten better soon turned bad.
I wondered if Albert had finally gone, and he tenaciously saved his life this time too.
Is it a holy knight?
There was too much mercy in her hands.

“I’m Judith, the 2nd Knight Commander of the Terra Vatican. Are you Unho?”

“Yeah…But what’s going on anyway?”

I was not very interested in religion.
I don’t even go to church.
It was absurd to see guys with no contact making a fuss like this.
It was quiet inside the mansion, but there were no windy days.

“…What happened?! No… Can you… Don’t you know what you’ve done?!”

Judith was astonished as if she had seen something unbelievable.

“What the hell did I do? It must be hard to find a good adventurer like me.”

No matter how much I thought about it, there was nothing to worry about.
Only the black magician I defeated is overheated.
Rather, shouldn’t the Holy Knights be thankful? However, looking at their atmosphere, it didn’t seem like they came to give a gift of gratitude.

“Didn’t you receive the revelation from the goddess!! But why!! Is such a disrespectful voice coming out!!”

Judith suddenly made a sudden acceleration.

“Goddess…? Revelation?”

“Master… Seems to be referring to the Terra Goddess of the Church of Terra.”

Marie kindly explained to her.

Goddess Terra?
The administrator of this place was a goddess named Terra?
If there is…Are you talking about quests?

I blocked spam messages from the administrator. It seems that they sent someone after all, as if it was frustrating.

‘Hmm… If I had known she was a goddess, would I have had a conversation with her?’

Still, since they sent such a pretty paladin, it might not have been a bad choice.

“You were chosen by Terra. If you ask for forgiveness from the goddess even now and go to the labyrinth with us, I will forgive you.”

“Now? That’s a little…”

…Going is not difficult.
But I’m on an important project right now.
And…The reason I came to Pantera this time was to rest comfortably with Ignis while being served by the maids, not to enter this world to go to the labyrinth.

Besides, even if the labyrinth was compared to the zombie world, there was no great merit… So I didn’t feel motivated.

…I wonder if I also have the tree frog symbol.
For some reason, I didn’t want to go in any more.

“Unhoran… You mean you don’t know the meaning of receiving a revelation from Tera?!

“Sorry, I’m not religious…”

“Heo-eok!! Mu, no religion?!”

At my words, Judith made an expression as if she was in great shock.

To me, the meaning of God must be an omnipotent, flawless existence.
Unfortunately, I’ve never seen such a being.
And I had no intention of believing unless I saw and felt it myself.

Besides, I’m a candidate for the manager of the stars.
It is a story that with a little more, you can become a manager of a star.
That means standing in the same position as Terra they say.

How different will I be when I become a manager?

I couldn’t have imagined that even then, I would be very different from now.

What if I become the manager of a star?
I am the me who has risen to such a position.
I had no desire to think of myself as a god.
So I didn’t think Terra was a god either.
If Terra was truly an omnipotent god, she wouldn’t have given me the labyrinth quest.

Rather, the word manager or ruler felt more appropriate to me than God.
There is no way I can believe that I, who do not consider Terra to be a god, are the Church of Terra.

But Judith was trembling as if her thoughts were different from mine.

“I-I can’t believe it even after seeing it myself! There was an unbeliever right here who didn’t believe in Terra-sama even after receiving Terra-sama’s revelation!!!”

Looking at her as well as her other paladins, she looked like she was about to explode.

“Marie, go inside the mansion.”

“…Okay. Master, be careful.”

Liliana loves her mansion dearly, and if she’s inside she’ll be in no danger.

Judith drew her sword and shield, revealing a quiet fury in her golden eyes.

-Sureung…

“I can tell. Unbelievers, you are a formidable enemy. But we are Terra’s sword. We will not back down. Knights! Draw your sword!! Let’s bring that disbelief to its knees! And fulfill Terra’s revelation!!”

Then the other paladins also drew their weapons.

-Visor!

Auras sprout from their swords.

Two sword masters using aura blades… No, Judith seemed to be more than that.
And the rest are knights using sword aura.

It was quite a force.

At the same time as I wrapped my body with magic and made armor, Judith rushed in.

She lunged at me with her kite shield wrapped in her distinct golden aura.

I stretched out my fist at Judith.
She lightly raised her shield and blocked my fist.

-Bang!

“Keugh!”

Judith frowned as if the shock was stronger than expected. But soon after, she stabbed me with a sword wrapped in an aura that formed a distinct shape.

I lightly grabbed the sword wrapped around the aura blade to block it.

Judith seemed briefly startled, her face stained with bewilderment.
Because the sword did not fall.

Conflict appeared on Judith’s face.
I wonder if I should worry about whether or not I should let go of the sword.

My big fist was sucked into her stomach

-Pop!!

“Gagging!!”

Her face contorts with pain.

‘Am I a little weak?’

Her tenacity was stronger than I thought.
The moment he tried to stab her fist into her stomach again.

A large Crusader is attacking me with a greatsword.

His sword also had an aura blade attached to it.
I lightly tilted my head to avoid the sword and put my fist into his chest.

-Kwajik!!

His chest dented in my fist and bounced back as it was.

“Theodore!!”

When Judith saw it, she screamed in surprise.

‘Was this a bit strong?’

Maybe he’s dead
Still, I was taking it easy.
Because I didn’t have the heart to kill them yet.
But dying while fighting is unavoidable.

The Holy Knight named Theodore stood up as normal as he thought …
I couldn’t see it being completely fine.
A thin stream of blood was visible at the corners of his mouth.
The dented breastplate was quickly being restored.

It was a deadly attack, but should I consider it good?
Or maybe it’s because he’s a paladin.

Judith eventually gave up her sword, which was gripped by her me, and distanced her.

I put her sword, which looked pretty good, into the inventory.

“Doesn’t it seem like a quote came out?”

“…”

At my words, Judith’s eyes went cold.
Theodore, who joined her, opened his mouth with a calm face.

“Captain… He…”

“…Maybe we have to risk our lives today.”

“…”

…Isn’t that too extreme?
No one asked to risk their lives.
I was just thinking of letting him go if he quietly returned.

She will know.
That this battle doesn’t have much of a chance.

‘I can’t understand.’

Even though her words were pessimistic, the fighting spirit in the eyes of any of the paladins did not fade in the slightest.

-Chuck and chug!

They meticulously rearrange their battle lines.

Another sword was drawn from her kite shield engraved with golden trees.

Was the shield real, not the sword?
It looked great.

The knight behind her raises her flag.
A golden wave spread around the flag, and the patterns on the paladin’s armor began to glow softly.

‘…Buff?’

“We are Terra’s sword!!”

The paladins, led by Judith, rushed at me again with their eyes shining with determination.
