The Evil God Beyond the Smartphone - Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Warlock (2)

“I was just getting hungry, but it is well worth wait.”

“W-what do you want…!”

Shouting at the Bandit Boss, Peter glanced over and saw Euthenia.

It was Euthenia, who had already wiped out an entire village all by herself.

Peter seemed to wonder how Euthenia would deal with the bandits.

As Peter glanced at her, she only smiled gently at him.

Peter had no choice but to face the bandit Boss again.

“I want it all.”

“… what?”

“I want everything you have! We will sell you as slaves and make sure that the food in the wagon is used wisely.”

The Bandit Boss’s attitude was more headstrong than they thought.

There was not even such a suggestion that if they unloaded things, they would honestly allow them to leave.

The food was rightfully theirs, and the bandits said they would capture them and sell the people as slaves.

Peter sighed at the no exit question and answer.

Then he turned his head completely around and faced a smiling Euthenia.

Euthenia still seemed to be leisurely embracing the book .

“W-what should we do?”

Peter asked Euthenia in a troubled tone of voice.

At first glance, the number of bandits in front of him appeared to exceed both of his two hands by a long shot.

There was no way Peter could get rid of them alone.

It was only natural that he should ask for help from Euthenia .

With a slender finger, stroking the book’s cover, Euthenia turned to Peter and said.

“Why don’t we try to have a little more conversation?”

“They are bandits.”

“Perhaps you didn’t think they could be indoctrinated?”

“…If they were such people, at least they wouldn’t have been talking about slaves.”

It was a very common-sense answer.

As Peter’s troubled image continued, Euthenia, who was watching over him, had no choice but to nod.

Euthenia stood up from the back of the carriage with the book in her arms .

The tip of the tunic Euthenia was wearing fluttered lightly in the mountain wind.

“You seem to be in trouble, so let me help you a little.”

Euthenia got up from her seat, and her gaze turned to the bandits who had blocked the road.

The bandits were still looking at the carriage with a disdainful eyes.

They are in a position of numerical superiority.

They probably felt that a naive-looking young man and a book-hugging girl were no threat.

In an ordinary situation, it would not have been a big mistake.

It was just that the Euthenia in front of them was far from ordinary.

“Hello, everyone.”

“Huhaha…! Now instead of a coward, we have a beautiful young lady.”

“My name is Euthenia High Lost. I am an apostle and servant of the Great One.”

“Apostle? What the hell is that?”

Bandit Boss asked, looking at her with a scowl when he heard the apostle.

Apostle of God.

It was not a common concept in the six Crossbridge temples.

They officially had saints and heroes, but recognized no other apostles under them.

There was no way that a bandit, could have understood an Apostle did not exist in the six most populous and widespread temples.

Euthenia graciously explained to the Bandit Boss.

“An apostle is the closest one to the Great One.”

“What! You say complicated things, after all, you are a priest!”

“Do you people here not intend to devote yourselves to the Great One?”

Facing the bandits, Euthenia encouraged them to join the cult.

However, the bandits only sniggered when they heard her.

Some bandits were so bad that they even showed their middle fingers at her.

One of the bandits standing behind the Bandit Boss shouted at Euthenia in an enraged voice.

“Hmph, I have hated gods most since I was a little. If God had been here, I wouldn’t be like this!”

“Really?”

As soon as Euthenia finished, a strange cry rang out from behind.

It was a sound that sounded like something was being crushed.

Bandit Boss’ gaze slowly turned towards the direction of the sound as he heard it.

When he did, he saw something horrible and screamed.

“Aaaaahhhh…!”

“Boss? What’s wrong!”

“Jack’s dead!”

The Bandit Boss discovered his colleague twisted in a bizarre direction.

Bandit Boss then looked at Euthenia with his mouth wide open at the scene that had happened so quickly.

There was only one person present who was suspected of being the culprit here.

Despite the horrible tragedy that had taken place in front of her eyes, Euthenia was still smiling, still holding the book in her arms.

Seeing her calm appearance, the Bandit Boss shouted at Euthenia.

“You, what you’ve done?”

“It’s a pity. If he had only served the Great One, then he wouldn’t have ended up looking like that.”

“It’s that female wizard! Kill her now!”

It was the Bandit Boss who made the first move at her bizarre girl.

Taking his sword, he ordered as he pointed at Euthenia .

The greatest threat in battle is the wizard.

Therefore, he thought to eliminate Euthenia first and soon as possible.

However, despite such orders from him, the bandits who were standing by did not make a move.

At the sight of his unresponsive colleagues, he turned his head again to check behind him.

“What are you guys doing now…?”

“Quaaaaaaaah!”

“Boss… help me!”

“Uhhhhhhhh…!”

A hand reached out from the shadow over the floor and reached out to the bandits.

Someone caught by the shadow screamed, and someone facing the shadow also ran away.

The result of those caught in the shadows was generally one thing.

Crack-Crack-!

With a sound that gave goosebumps, the whole body twisted by the shadow’s hand and died.

Bandit Boss, freaked by the crazy number of shadows that were bursting, spat out a swear word.

“Crazy shit, F*ck..!”

Just because he is the Boss of the bandits does not mean that there are any exceptions to the shadow’s attacks.

A hand reached out from the ground, aiming for the Bandit Boss.

He hurriedly swung his sword.

With a cling, the hand aiming at the top bounced back.

But that wasn’t all the shadows were aiming for him.

He bit his lip at the sight of an endless shadows.

“Kuh…!”

“Try to return to him, repenting of your sins…”

Euthenia’s calm voice echoed.

Bandit Boss continued to resist, but there was a limit to the number of hands he could withstand.

Numerous handholds began to grow from behind the shadows.

The strength drained from his hands. Eventually he let go of the sword he was gripping.

The sword of the Bandit Boss that had lost its strength fell on the floor.

In a flash, the shadowy hands that had reached out restrained the Bandit Boss’s arms and legs.

“H-hey, wait a minute!”

“…?”

“W-wait!”

Shadow hands reached out from all sides towards him, who was restrained head to toe.

As the hands moved towards his head, he shouted at Euthenia in a strained voice.

It was his final effort that he wanted the attack to stop for a while.

Bandit Boss suddenly made a wild claim, and Euthenia looked at him coldly and asked.

“What’s wrong?”

“One of our comrades who didn’t come here is a warlock!”

“A warlock…?”

“If you kill me, he won’t leave you alone!”

The words that passed from his lips were threats against Euthenia.

It was a story that nobody would bother with.

However, Euthenia stopped her shadows from moving towards the Bandit Boss.

It was not because of fear at his threat.

It was just that one word out of his mouth had caught Euthenia’s interest.

“Warlock… that’s a bit interesting”

Warlock.

Hearing these words, Euthenia withdrew her shadow hands.

The shadows’ hands disappeared in an instant.

The shadow that had been dominating the surrounding area disappeared, and the bandits who had been bound by the shadow were set free.

Of the more than ten bandits, only three figures survived.

For all the bravado and threats made against Euthenia, he looked pretty miserable.

“Haa, haa….”

The Bandit Boss breathed roughly as he checked the number of surviving bandits, including himself.

Cold sweat poured from the forehead of his head, along with a sense of relief that he had survived.

The relief was similarly shared by the other bandits.

As they picked up their weapons that had been separated, they looked at Euthenia, who was counting the number of dead bandits.

As Euthenia suddenly let go of the bandits, Peter looked at her with a look of disapproval, as if he did not understand.

At best, it was just a threat from the bandit-like guys.

It was clear that the one called Warlock was also a great wizard.

Still, the fact that Euthenia had spared them was something that Peter couldn’t understand.

“Why did you do that?”

“Because I want to see a Warlock.”

“Eh…?”

Hearing Euthenia’s answer, Peter looked blankly.

She did not hide in the shadows for fear of the bandit’s threats .

It was simply because she wanted to see the wizard that Euthenia had stopped attacking him.

Ever since her god had given her a magic book, Euthenia had been interested in magic.

The magic books and magic theories possessed by so-called Warlock.

And the power of the magic used by other wizards.

In her opinion, this was the perfect opportunity to encounter different kinds of magic.

Tok-Tok-Tok.-!

Euthenia’s footsteps headed towards the Bandit Boss, who was sitting in the middle of the mountain path.

Every time the distance between him and Euthenia got closer, the Bandit Boss, who was sitting, trembled.

As she got closer to the bandit, who was trembling with fear, Euthenia looked down and asked.

“You said Warlock , didn’t you?”

“He, yes! Among my comrades is a fearsome Warlock! Jesus, he even sacrifices people!”

Still made efforts to exaggerate the Warlock’s menace.

However, such matters were meaningless to Euthenia.

Hugging the book, Euthenia looked at Bandit Boss with a very kind smile.

She then made a request to him in a calm tone.

“So, then could you guide me directly?”
