234. Defensive Battle (7)

"Someone masterfully controlled the Glature Troll? And you suspect that it was the work of [The Reserved One]...."

An old house in the suburbs not far from the Imperial Capital.

In a place that was sometimes used as a meeting place for seditious people, an old priest was staring into space with a bright green glow in his eyes.

He is [Sowing].

He was the Demon Lord of [Disease], who had been making good use of the poor Dark Church's old priesthood as a contractor ever since he was transferred to it by Romaine.

"It seems like it will be more difficult to take control of the northern region than I thought..."

Eventually, after finishing contact with his subordinate, he grumbled and returned to the living room.

As he casually sat down on the old sofa, acrid dust rose up everywhere.

"...Was the [Reserved One] involved this time too?"

[Greed], who was sitting in the living room, asks first. As always, she looked like a small girl with braided hair.

"Yes. I think so. I really don't know. I have no idea what it's working for."

"That's right, we are moving for the ultimate destruction of Delcross. It's obvious."

"Is that really true? Even if it's not exactly what Romain said, these days, I'm increasingly having strong doubts about the meaning of [The Reserved One]'s existence."

When Pa Jong pouted his mouth uncharacteristically, Greed stared at him.

"Anyway, I didn't know that you would put an end to that guy's nonsense."

Berseus Dashiano is a member of the 'Council of Six' and the owner of the [Key].

It is an existence that cannot help but be in eternal opposition to the Demon Lords, who are only looking for an opportunity to divide not only the northern part of the continent, but also the entire Delcross dimension.

Then, Pa Jong lifted the wrinkled corners of his mouth and chuckled.

"We can cooperate for a while for what each person wants. Just as [Repentance] supported Sigurd Sigurdson to liberate those who were reserved, we will join forces with Berseus and the abandoned 'Doll' to take over the northern part of the continent. I'm raising my hand."

Well, the guardian of Delcross may not be so gentle.

Pajong added that.

"Beerseus's wish is nothing but a vain delusion. In the end, he will be sanctioned by the 'Council of Six'."

"Well, guess what? As you know, their rules are quite ambiguous. What they consider most important is maintaining a balance between cause and effect."

A perfect world that was once paired with Delcross.

This is because the [catastrophe] that completely destroyed Ionia was originally caused by an imbalance between cause and effect.

"So they are shackling the hands and feet of the guardians who are trying to protect the continent, and are actually turning a blind eye to the dark church's moves to harm the continent. As long as it is done in the hands of 'humans'."

Pajong continued speaking, leaning diagonally on the sofa.

"Greed. [Cause and effect] is the only thing and everything for people like us. What is the reason for going all out to expand the church without invading the dimension from the beginning? We can exert maximum influence on the world without touching that cause and effect. "Isn't it for unfolding?"
