Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 53 Chapter Kerman is Unharmed

Dilock thought that the demon would scream and struggle to death under the light, but it didn't...

When the formation stopped, Keman reappeared before his eyes safely, unharmed.

"impossible!!"

Dilok and Isis stood up suddenly.

"Sir, I have already said that I was wrongly accused, why don't you believe me?"

Dilok's face turned pale, and Isis also looked incredulous. How could this be possible?

He clearly believed that the other party was a demon, but why did the formation have no effect on him?

Failed? Impossible, the formation has been running well and there is no way it could fail.

Is he admitting his mistake? That's impossible. He clearly knew the aura of that evil creature and he would not forget it. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to Isis's request so easily.

but……

But how could this happen...

Damn it... How could it be! How could he be okay?

Isis's eyes were wide open and she bit her lips tightly, while Dilok also felt very troubled.

Looking at the suspicious eyes of the people around him, he felt uneasy.

Once Kman is released, the news that he forced the high priest to use the judgment array to judge him without distinguishing right from wrong when he first came to the branch temple will immediately spread to the entire branch temple. Then his subsequent actions will no longer have any deterrent effect and may even be resisted, which is something he does not want to see.

More importantly, he was certain that the person in front of him was a demon. He believed in his own eyes. If he let the other person go, the damage caused would be more irreparable than if he had no prestige.

Dilock was caught in a dilemma.

"Master Priest, Priest Isis, why do you look so unhappy? Doesn't the fact that I am not a demon prove that the temple has not been invaded by evil spirits? Shouldn't we be happy?"

Kerman had a smile on his face.

"Or do you... hope that I am a demon?"

Looking at Kman's provocative words, the middle-aged priest above was somewhat displeased. He knew that the other party had torn his face with the priests and had a personal grudge with Priest Isis. After all, the other party insisted on considering him as a demon and even used the judgment barrier.

Now that Kman has proved that he is not a demon, it is okay for him to be a little proud of himself out of excitement. However, even if the High Priest has stubbornly made a mistake, Kman should not be so disrespectful. It is really rude. Is he mocking them, the priests?

No matter how unhappy he was, he was still very happy about the priest's mistake and Isis's defeat. However, he did not show it on his face, but gave the priest a way out.

"Master Priest, you see... since this is all a mistake, shouldn't we release High Priest Kerman?"

"Yes... Master Priest, I have already said that it was that guy Isis who deceived you. Otherwise, you would not have made such a big mistake and mobilized so many people."

"Alas, poor Kerman, being treated like this... How unfair it is."

Discussions could be heard from all around, and Isis looked dejected as she listened to them, while Dilock also had a frown on his face.

Are you really going to let him go?

But... he is clearly a demon. Although I don't know how he avoided judgment, there is no doubt that he is an evil demon.

"Sir, please release Priest Kerman..."

"Yeah, we can't let the other party feel disappointed..."

Hearing the exhortations in his ears, Dilokhan felt even more irritated.

He raised his head suddenly, wanting to shout at them to quiet down, but unexpectedly his eyes met the gaze of the girl in the distance.

Is that the girl?

The other person blinked and looked at me in confusion. I don’t know why, when I looked into those lively eyes, my irritable mood suddenly calmed down, as if the storm dissipated and the waves subsided.

But Dilock didn't see that at this time, the eyes of Kman below him flickered slightly.

……

……

Retracting his gaze, Dilock began to reflect on himself. Today, his emotions were too impulsive and he could not control them.

Looking at the group of people around him who were advising him to release Kman, and then looking at Isis with a dejected look on his face, Dilock sighed slightly.

It seems that I have no choice but to let it go.

He hoped that the merciful gods would not blame him. He had no choice but to do this. If the gods were here, this evil demon would not be so arrogant.

Dilock waved his hand and was about to give an order.

Suddenly, his body stopped.

Then the irritable expression was gradually replaced by astonishment...

wrong!

That girl!

That girl...she!

Dilock suddenly stood up and raised his head sharply.

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 54 Chapter Kato Megumi, Blessed by God

His eyes widened and he quickly turned his gaze to Kato Megumi.

"How is it possible... Just now it was only vaguely visible, why is it now..."

Dilock murmured. In his sight, the barely visible divinity surrounding the girl seemed to become more and more obvious. Even now, Dilock could still clearly see that the faint divine power surrounding the other party was absorbing the residual energy of the barrier in the air. At the same time, the divinity on the other party became stronger and stronger.

"Is this a revelation from God?"

Dilock suddenly thought, since the barrier cannot identify this evil demon, can the girls possessed by the oracle rely on their own pure divine power to identify the evil demon?

You must know that divine power is different from divine magic. Divine power is the power possessed by gods themselves. It is pure and vast, and is one of the origins of the operation of this world.

Compared to divine power, divine magic is far inferior. After all, divine magic is just a method of transforming the spirit using one's own faith. Its original appearance is human faith and spirit. Not only is it not as powerful as divine power, but once the mental power is exhausted, one can only wait for recovery before casting again. Therefore, the mages in this world basically have a fixed number of casting times.

As for the evil spirits, what power can best restrain them? What power can make them hate them to the extreme? Of course, it is the power of the gods that has imprisoned them for tens of millions of years!

You should know that the girl who received the oracle did not simply convey the words of God. In some ways, the girl who received the oracle was equivalent to God's agent on earth, responsible for conveying God's words and deeds, guiding the direction of the temple, etc.

So they are also called those favored by God.

According to previous scriptures, there are five stages of being favored by God, namely, prayer, favor, communication, guidance, and agency.

The first two are situations where humans with pure faith inadvertently attract the attention of gods, while the last three are situations where they can truly build a bridge of communication between humans and gods.

Because they have divine power bestowed by the gods. Looking at the pure and sacred power surrounding the other party, which is pure and strong, with a few strands of subtle divine power, it is obvious that the girl in front of him has gone through the first two and reached the level of the last three.

I was originally planning to investigate the girl's situation later, but I didn't expect that at this critical moment, she would reveal herself on her own initiative. This was clearly the guidance of God!

Thinking of this, Dilock's brows relaxed slightly and a smile appeared on his face.

……

……

At this time, Kato Megumi also discovered that the ball of light in her mind began to expand, and she felt a little strange.

However, before she could observe and think, Eriri's voice suddenly sounded in her mind, attracting her attention.

"Mei! Don't lower your head. The old man up there is looking at this side. Do you think he is looking at you?"

Hearing this, Kato Megumi raised her head.

His eyes slowly met the other person's, and when he saw her looking at him, the priest smiled.

It seemed that Eriri guessed correctly, the other party was indeed looking at her. At this time, Eriri also stretched her head out of her arms and looked quietly at Dilock who was raising his hand.

"His eyes are so lustful... Do you think he is attracted to you..."

pat-

"it hurts……"

Kato Megumi decisively tapped the back of Eriri's head.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Having said that, when Kato Megumi saw the other person's expression and eyes staring at her, she did feel a weird feeling, which made her feel uncomfortable, and even gave her goose bumps.

How should I put it? The way the other person looked at me did have a fanatical feeling, just like those perverts who were keen on dismembering corpses. Their eyes were full of strange enthusiasm, and there was an indescribable feeling in their eyes that made people feel uncomfortable all over.

Although the description is a bit inappropriate, the strange smile on the other person's face and the bright eyes make it difficult for Kato Megumi not to associate him with those maniacs.

Could it be that the other party really has a crush on me?

Ah! Of course, she wasn't thinking about what Eriri meant. She meant that she seemed to have been noticed by the other party.

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 55 Chapter The Priest's Request

Sure enough, after exchanging a few glances with the other party, Kato Hui saw the high priest slowly raised his hand and waved in his direction.

"That girl, come here..."

Seeing that the priest suddenly summoned the girl who broke into the God-given temple for an irrelevant reason, not only were the people around him stunned and some did not know why, even Kato Megumi felt the same way.

So she raised her finger and pointed at herself and asked in confusion.

"You mean me?"

Dilok smiled.

"Yes, child, come here! I have something to ask of you."

Hui really didn't want to get into trouble, but the other party had already pointed out her, so she couldn't explain why she didn't want to go. So she could only walk towards Priest Dilok despite the strange looks from the people around her.

On the way, Eriri shouted excitedly in her mind.

"See! My judgment was right. This man has taken a fancy to you and wants to marry you as his concubine..."

Kato Megumi decisively ignored Eriri's strange remarks.

When she came to Dilock, she saw him looking her up and down for a long time. If there had not been no lust in his eyes, Kato Megumi almost thought that Eriri's nonsense was correct. Fortunately, reality was not so absurd.

The other party just nodded with satisfaction and then said.

"Child, I don't know your name..."

"My name is Kato Megumi..."

Seeing the priest's question, Kato Megumi answered decisively, and then saw the other party's eyes looking at the cat in her arms.

"This is your contract partner, right? A very nice form. What's your name?"

Kato Megumi didn't expect that the other party could see the relationship between Eriri and herself at a glance, but when she thought about it, the other party was a priest after all, so it didn't seem strange that he could see it.

"My name is Eriri, I'm a cat, uncle..."

Eriri suddenly answered.

Hearing her answer, Dilock just nodded and said nothing more. Seeing this, Kato Hui didn't know what to say, and actually said that the other party was an uncle. Fortunately, the priest didn't care.

After a moment of silence, Dilock suddenly spoke.

"I see that the power of faith around you is particularly pure, and you have entered the Temple of God's Blessing to receive the divine arts bestowed by the gods. I suddenly thought of a position in the temple that is particularly suitable for you. I wonder if you are willing to take it..."

Kato Hui was stunned. What was he doing? Trying to win her over?

At this time, the people around were getting a little impatient.

"Master Priest, what are you doing? You summoned this girl for no apparent reason and even promised her a position. Isn't the most important thing to do now to open the barrier and release High Priest Kerman?"

"Yes, yes, Master Priest, aren't you hurting everyone's feelings? Since High Priest Kerman is not a demon, shouldn't you let him out?"

In response to what the people around him said, Dilock simply waved his hand and signaled them to stop.

Then he glanced at the people around him, looking very serious.

"Who said Keman is not a demon?"

The people around were dumbfounded by the priest's words. What did this mean? Was he calling a deer a horse? Was the priest going to forcibly label High Priest Kerman as a demon just to save face?

The jurors looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes. They wanted to question, but they were stuck under the other party's unfathomable eyes and the subtle pressure.

Seeing this, Dilock nodded with satisfaction.
