Starting from the Collapse World, I became the behind-the-scenes boss

When seeing the witch, he would step forward to greet her enthusiastically, but when he glanced at the young man beside him, his eyes would involuntarily show a bit more greed and desire, as if... he was a zombie craving for fresh flesh and blood.

As for these looks, Shi Hen responded with the most sincere and warm smile, as if he was completely blind to the malice in the villagers' eyes.

After all, he is now a paladin of the Church of Destiny, so he naturally has to be kinder to others.

Even the clothes he was wearing had been changed by the power of the Holy Mark Space, becoming a black short-sleeved shirt that was in line with the style of the times.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Excellency."

Hearing the boy's praise, Yaezakura smiled implicitly, her face as charming as a bunch of cherry blossoms swaying in the mountains.

"Of course, the same goes for Miss Yae." Looking at the face of the witch, Shi Hen nodded slightly, with a hint of emotion in his voice, "If the Saint Lady saw you, I think she would be very happy.

She likes pretty and cute girls the most.”

Well, he likes them too, and he likes girls who have the qualifications of a Herrscher even more.

He now has two Herrscher cores but they haven't gained power yet.

"..." Hearing the boy's words, Yaezakura's cheeks immediately turned red. After a pause, she continued, "Sir Knight, are you familiar with Kallen?"

"Of course."

Nodding slightly, Shi Hen couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

Miss Miko, you were seriously exposed just now.

From beginning to end, he never mentioned the name of the saint, but Yaezakura called out the name Kallen very naturally.

Thinking of the special nature of this holy scar space, Shi Hen did not point out the witch's mistake, but continued with what he had just said: "I once swore to my sword that I would fight to protect the Saint Lady for the rest of my life.

But unfortunately... my power is too weak, I can't even keep up with the Saint."

Speaking softly, Shi Hen shook his head regretfully, his face instantly filled with regret.

Even if Otto came today, he would still be the guardian knight of Saint Kallen.

"Sir Knight, please don't say that!" With a serious expression, Yae Sakura immediately comforted the boy, "As long as you have this intention, Kallen will definitely recognize you!"

"..." After being stunned for a moment, Shi Hen smiled, "Yes, the Saint Lady is so powerful and gentle that people can't help but want to follow her."

"As long as Sir Knight doesn't give up, I believe you will be able to catch up with Kallen one day."

Yaezakura also encouraged with a smile.

"Thank you very much, Miss Yae." Shi Hen nodded with a smile, and looked around with a puzzled look, "Miss Yae, this should be the road to the shrine, right?"

They had already passed through four torii gates.

"Yes. Your Excellency the Knight is of noble status, and the Yae Shrine is the only thing in the village that will not bring disgrace to Your Excellency."

Yaezakura explained.

"Will this disturb the gods too much?"

Shi Hen asked, looking worried.

"The God is very kind and merciful." Yaezakura smiled and shook her head, "Our Yaezakura clan has lived in the shrine for generations, so you don't have to worry about it."

"That couldn't be better."

Shi Hen said with a smile, a hint of amusement on his lips.

Is this Herrscher of Corrosion planning to keep him under his nose and monitor him?

Since the other party wants to corrupt Yaezakura's mind, the area around this miko must be where the Herrscher has placed the most chess pieces.

In other words, Yae Shrine is the base camp of this Herrscher of Corruption.

But it’s also good this way, as it will allow him to find the Herrscher’s true form faster.

Although there was still plenty of time, the boy didn't mind solving the problem earlier.

Soon, they had walked along the long path to the shrine, and several red buildings that were much more luxurious than the houses in the village appeared before them.

"This is the Yae Shrine. Your Excellency the Knight, please wash your hands first."

Yaezakura said with a smile and pointed to the pool beside her.

Nodding slightly, Shi Hen did as he was told.

Even though a big fight might come to pass soon, he was still willing to observe basic etiquette.

After washing her hands, Yaezakura first respectfully placed the demon sword back into the main hall, and then led the young man through the shrine area to the back garden.

This is where the Yae clan has lived for generations.

"You will stay here for the next few days. If you need anything, please let me or other people in the shrine know."

Yaezakura smiled as she found an empty room for the boy to stay in.

"Sorry for disturbing you."

Shi Hen nodded slightly.

Patapapap~

Footsteps were heard in the corridor, and a middle-aged woman in simple clothes appeared outside the door.

"Mister Miko, the Lord God wants to see you."

Stopping at the door with her head slightly lowered, the woman spoke in a respectful tone.

"Now?"

Yaezakura frowned.

She had just brought Shi Hen back and hadn't even had a sip of tea yet.

"Yes, the Lord God is in a hurry."

The woman kept her head down, with a humble attitude.

"Alright." Sighing helplessly, Yae Sakura looked at the boy with a guilty look on her face, "Sorry, Sir Knight, I guess I have to leave first."

"No need to do that. It's my fault for coming here. Miss Yae, please do as you please."

Shi Hen shook his head.

He knew that it was the Corrosion Ruler who was manipulating the script.

When it comes to the control over the stigmata space, the Herrscher is indeed much better than Yae Sakura.

If the other party had not been obsessed with the priestess, perhaps five hundred years would have been enough for the Herrscher to break through the seal.

But unfortunately... this Herrscher has a sister complex.

"Please feel free to visit us, and you can call other shrine staff if you need anything."

After giving her final instructions, Yaezakura followed the woman and left.

Watching the two figures disappear around the corner, Shi Hen couldn't help but shook his head and sighed slightly.

Trapped in a spider web but unmoved, is this witch completely unaware, or is she willing to fall?

Well, let’s go find the Corrosion Ruler first.

Shi Hen wandered around the shrine.

It is already deep winter in the real world outside, but it seems to be spring here. The cherry blossoms are in full bloom like clouds and rosy clouds, which is a unique beauty.

Too bad I can't race.

Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

Yaya’s driver’s license is still in Saint Freya.

As he sighed, a green stone tablet standing under the cherry tree suddenly caught Shi Hen's eyes.

tombstone?

With a slight curl of his lips, Shi Hen immediately stepped forward.

But before the boy could get completely close, a pink-haired girl with a vague figure emerged from the stone tablet.

"ghost?"

Shouting in a somewhat surprised tone, Shi Hen threw out a cross with his backhand.

"..."

Looking at the cross that went straight through her body, the pink-haired girl blinked in confusion.

Chapter 110: Destroy You on Behalf of the Saint

"Hello, traveler from afar, my name is Yae Rin, and Yae Sakura is my sister."

Although she couldn't understand what the boy meant by his actions, the ethereal pink-haired girl still introduced herself seriously.

"Yae Rin..." Shi Hen nodded in understanding and asked, "So you are a ghost?"

"..."

Yae Rin blinked, thinking that the boy's focus was a little bit abnormal.

She was already in this state, but the other party still kept asking her if she was a ghost?

"Ghost, ghost... If people become something like this after they die, then I should be a ghost."

The girl spoke softly, her expression visibly gloomy.

"I'm sorry, although I grew up in the church, this is the first time I've seen a living ghost." Shi Hen explained softly, his head lowered, "I've read in a book that after a person dies, their soul will go to the netherworld, and only those with strong obsessions can stay in this world.

So, does Miss Ghost have any unfulfilled wishes?"

"I...I hope you can save my sister!"

Looking straight into the boy's black eyes, Yae Rin's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation, but after a pause, she still made the request with hope on her face.

"Save Yae Sakura?" Shi Hen showed an obvious look of astonishment on his face, and then he shook his head gently, "I'm sorry, Miss Ghost, I don't quite understand what you mean.

In my opinion, Miss Yaesakura is much stronger than me.

If there is any danger here, then maybe she will save me."

Now he is just a rookie knight of the Church of Destiny.

"No! This is different! Everything in Yae Village now...be careful!"

Before he could finish his words, Yae Rin's expression suddenly changed and he couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

call out!

There was a sound of breaking wind behind the boy's head.

He lightly moved his feet to avoid the sneak attack and then slashed the man's neck with a knife.

With a bang, a young man in simple clothes holding a stick fell to the ground.

"Ms. Ghost, please continue, what happened to Yaemura?"

After doing all this without changing his expression, Shi Hen looked back at the pink-haired girl.

Even if he was a rookie knight, there was no way he could be killed by a sneak attack from a passing villager.

Unable to help but take a second look at the villager lying on the ground, Yae Rin felt that the boy seemed to have some misunderstanding of her own strength.

That kind of crisp and neat movements are definitely a level that can only be achieved after repeated practice.

Pursing her lips to skip this point, the girl began to explain: "The current Yae Village is just a dream of my sister.

My sister is a kind and gentle person, but the custom of Yae Village has always been to sacrifice human lives in order to pray to the gods for rain and dew.

For countless hours, she had been experiencing this nightmare over and over again. "

Snapped!

He picked up the stick and kneed it, breaking it in two. Shi Hen's face was filled with uncontrollable anger: "How could this happen!?

Is there such an evil god in the world? Is Yaemura so absurd! ? "

As an upright knight, he could never tolerate such evil.

"Big brother, I hope you can save my sister!" Yae Rin shouted loudly, her face full of pleading, "I am just a part of the nightmare. Only you... only you who came from outside are the only variable in this world!"

"What does Miss Ghost want me to do?" Shi Hen asked, his expression becoming serious and upright, "I swear in the name of the Saint Lady that no matter what the cost, I will definitely save Miss Yaezakura!"
