Chapter 122: Chapter 122 – Departure

This is the legendary Heresy Tribunal, the executioners capable of bringing anyone to the sentencing platform?

That's simply nonsense!

Even though Messai was no longer feeling as irritable and angry as before, it wasn't that much better.

She watched as one of the inquisitioners lost their sense of reasoning and recklessly stood forth to demand for the elf to sing again.

Seeing that, Messai began to seriously doubt the rumored capabilities of the Heresy Tribunal. She suspected that they might not even be a match for an Ecclesiastical Templar.

They've committed the most serious mistake in the Hearthstone Tavern — to dare cause trouble in the tavern without dying to a 'steal priest' in a game of Hearthstone!

This Hearthstone Tavern was different from all the other small taverns in the world. The people in this tavern were not hooligans and despicable thieves.

Ever since the World Expo, the Hearthstone Tavern has caught the attention of people from all walks of life. Many of them ended up becoming frequent visitors after playing Hearthstone.

Among the few Hearthstone buddies Messai knew, many of them were teachers in the Advanced Magic Universities… there was even a renowned grand mage among them too.

If the Holy Church dared to cause trouble in the tavern, it meant that they would incur resentment from Norland's citizens.

Messai wanted to step forward to stop that inquisitor. But, the mages of the tavern had all taken out their staff. The few dwarves that came to the tavern to slack off in the morning also picked up stools.

After sensing the peculiar magic fluctuation that filled the entire tavern, the inquisitor that had lost his sense of reasoning finally calmed down slightly.

'Chatta, calm yourself!'

......

The other two inquisitors were still rational. The inquisition leader was using some sort of mind communication method to tell his subordinate to calm down.

'I can't… kill them? Lady Saintness's singing, didn't you heat it? Leader… it's Lady Saintess's singing! As long as… she's willing to sing again, I'll be able to get rid of those voices from my head! Only once, she only needs to sing once more!'

The voice of the man called 'Chatta' sounded completely devoid of reason. The inquisition leader realized that the situation had worsened.

'That is not Lady Saintess's singing. It's only a song sung by an unknown elf. She's unable to help you get rid of the sins you've committed in the past. You can only rely on yourself to prevail over it before our return to the Holy City. Chatta, my child, do not repeat yourself and commit unnecessary sins. The others in the tavern are all innocent. Let us return to the chapel first.'

The inquisition leader tried his best to persuade the inquisitor. He was able to understand why Chatta was losing control over himself.

After all, he also nearly managed to drive out all those voices from his own head after listening to the elf's singing. Unfortunately, the singing stopped too fast, so fast that he was unable to feel peace.

This sudden change in emotions made him feel extremely irritable.

'Innocent? I don' t think any one of them is innocent! These people are all associated with demons, they are all guilty.'

'Damn it! Chatta! This tavern is not a gathering place of rats! There's at least three rank seven grand mages here! There's also a Chaos Demon on top of that!'

The other inquisitor was unable to calm himself anymore. Their original target, a Chaos Demon, was extremely dangerous to deal with. But now, there's a group of grand mages too. Even if they were to have twice the amount of inquisitors, they would still not be able to handle this.

Most of all, they're not attempting any assassination right now!

He rushed up and held back the irrational Chatta. He had already given up on concealing his identity. After all, they were all in disguise.

Because of that, the other two inquisitioners brought the unhinged Chatta away by force.

“Everyone, thank you all for your help. Gerona, bring everyone a mug of rye spirits. Free of charge. As for the mages that's not into drinking alcohol, bring them a mug of sweet juice.”

After the three inquisitors left, Joshua bowed to all the people that stood up to protect the Hearthstone Tavern. Then, he turned to a server and shouted for her to bring everyone drinks.

“No, no, no. Boss, we don't want free dinks. How about a free card pack instead?” shouted a dwarf that just sat back down.

Joshua smiled and shook his head. He didn't answer the dwarf. Fortunately, that dwarf was merely joking with him too as he immediately went back to playing his unfinished match.

The mages talked among themselves before returning to their own seats too.

As for Joshua, he walked over to Messai and sat down before her. She had a very complicated expression on her face.

“Miss Messai… is it possible for you to tell me a bit about what those three men's relationship with you… or the Ecclesiastical Templars might be?”

Joshua immediately noticed those three unfamiliar faces from the warning provided by Messai subconsciously.

Joshua felt a sense of unease from them. Joshua had felt that same feeling from the dark elf before.

“I don't know.”

Messai turned her head around. She had a slightly ashamed look on her face.

Even if she had a flash of realization and considered Joshua to be a good person, she still cannot tell Joshua those three people were their Holy Church's elites, that they've come to assassinate him!

Messai felt ashamed just thinking about those words.

“Since you're unwilling to answer, I wouldn't force you either.”

Joshua was already able to guess the reason why those three men came here.

Since those three people had the same auras as that dark elf, it most likely meant that they possess the same ability as that dark elf.

“Mrs. Melina, please continue to look after this place. I will be proceeding to the Squirrel Street with Tylene and Ciri.”

Joshua looked into the time of things. It was about time to film 'Léon: The Demon' again.

“You can leave it to me. Mister Joshua, the carriage is already waiting outside,” said Melina.

Joshua nodded his head. He didn't bother to pay attention to the depressed female knight. Together with Tylene and Ciri, he got on the horse carriage prepared by Mrs. Melina.

“The Church seemed to have dispatched people to get rid of you. Are you really not planning to stay in the tavern to observe things for some time?”

Ciri closed the door to the horse carriage. From the farce in the tavern earlier and the dialogue between Joshua and Messai, she had already guessed what those three people were here for.

“I'm actually safer outside.”

Joshua revealed the imprint on his hand to Ciri. It was the imprint from the Duke of Bones.

As a Chaos Demon, Joshua was not a sheep that would hide behind fences waiting for people to trample upon him. Apart from his special magic power that could render mages' magic ineffective, Joshua also had the power given to him by the Duke of Bones.

“It should be no issue for a couple spirits to appear in the Squirrel Street. After all, the Necromancy Association is located there.”

The aura of death slowly filled the imprint on Joshua's hand. The elven girl sitting inside the same horse carriage as Joshua was already huddled up and shivering in a corner.
