Manga from the Age of God

"I'll ask you next time, Ash."

Ash nodded and walked into St. George's Church.

He found a priest in the prayer room and showed his identification as a Vatican exorcist.

He was soon arranged in the parlour and received in person by a bishop of the church.

"Greetings to you, Mr. Ash."

The bishop named Rolle is very easy-going, and his witty language makes people feel like spring breeze.

However, whenever Ash wanted to further inquire about the target of this time——the detailed information on the magician with the divine tool, he would always be vague, either delaying it for various reasons, or simply avoiding talking about it. .

He couldn't help frowning a little.

At this moment, I heard a commotion from outside the living room.

The door was pushed open heavily.

"Damn Roll!"

A middle-aged strong man rushed in from outside and directly grabbed Bishop Rolle by the neck.

His eyes were bloodshot, his expression was very excited, and he kept swearing and scolding.

"Damn it! All my teammates have been sacrificed... Why don't you make it clear that there is no human magician there, but a real devil, bastard!"

Seeing that Bishop Rolle had been pinched and rolled his eyes, Yaxiu thought about it, and stepped forward to grab the strong man.

"Let go! I'm going to kill him today!"

Afterwards, a group of church personnel rushed in from outside the door, and even two paladins arrived to stop the situation from spreading.

The strong man was driven out of the church by the paladins with weapons, and Rolle was helped down to heal his wounds.

After a while, another priest came hurriedly in front of Ash.

"Mr. Ashe, the exorcist from the Vatican?"

The priest looked up and down at Ash and shrugged:

"Something very unpleasant happened today, and we're working out how to deal with it... It's a little messy, or Mr. Ash should come back next time."

Ash said calmly:

"Please at least tell me the target of my mission this time - the location and general abilities of the magician holding the divine tool."

"Sorry, I have no rights."

"Then I need to speak to the bishop immediately... Where is the bishop's office?"

"Except for Bishop Rolle, the other cardinals happened to have gone to the Vatican." The priest sighed: "It is said that they will return in two months."

After a pause, he added:

"Also, I heard Bishop Rolle say that we didn't ask the Vatican's exorcists for support - we can handle this on our own."

"But I have a visa from the Vatican." Ash took out a certificate stamped with the archbishop's seal: "They said that Britain was in trouble and hoped that I would come to support."

The priest just shook his head, ignored Ash and left in a hurry.

......

After coming out of the church, Ash frowned and thoughtful.

"Have you got the details?"

Gabriel's sweet greeting came from beside him.

"St George's Church denied their need for support."

After a moment of silence, Ash asked softly as he walked away:

"Gabriel, I think something is wrong..."

When he said this, he suddenly saw a strong man sitting on the steps of the square not far from the church, with his head lowered in frustration.

It was the guy who was so angry just now that he almost strangled Bishop Rolle.

"I'll go over there and ask, maybe I can find some useful information."

Ash stopped talking to Gabriel in a low voice and walked over.

"Hello."

He came to the strong man with a smile on his face:

"We've met."

"Leave, I've never seen you... Now I'm in a bad mood." The strong man growled without raising his head.

"Just now, in the church." Ash said.

The strong man was dressed in ordinary linen clothes, and blood stains could be faintly seen under the clothes - it should be that the injury had not healed.

Hearing this, he looked up at Yaxiu, his eyes indifferent.

"I'm an exorcist."

Yaxiu introduced himself and continued:

"You seem to be in a very bad state. I can stop the bleeding a little."

After a pause, he slowly stretched out his hand, and seeing that the other party did not intend to stop him, he mobilized the small universe in his body.

The general level of trauma is still hard to beat the Saint Seiya.

Just stimulate the cells to clot.

Warm energy poured into the strong man's body like a trickle, and his expression softened a little.

"Exorcist? Are you also a combatant hired by the church? To deal with the demonic horde swarming outside Reiner Town?"

Before Yaxiu could answer, he stood up and said coldly:

"I advise you not to be deceived by the church."

"The gang of gods seem to have other plans... Anyway, they haven't thought about expelling the demon group outside Leiner Town at all."

Yaxiu glanced at the invisible Gabriel, saw the other party's expression stunned, and quickly stopped the strong man.

"Wait first, how about finding a tavern to chat?"

Chapter 9 Information given by mercenaries

It was a little sultry in the crowded pub.

The air is filthy, the ground is filthy, and there are chicken bones everywhere, as well as fish bones, empty wine bottles, bread crumbs, and other rubbish.

The people around the two tables seemed to be arguing about something, holding beer mugs, blushing and thick necks.

Gabriel didn't like this kind of atmosphere very much. He didn't touch the ground, his body was floating in mid-air, and he stayed behind Asher like a spirit behind him.

Thanks to her stealth magic, the low-strength mercenaries couldn't see it at all.

"Those goddamn gods!"

The strong man I met in the church had already drank three glasses of wine in a row. At this time, he was slamming the empty glass on the wooden table and yelling angrily.

Taking advantage of the drinking space just now, he told Ash about the matter in general.

A strong man named John, a member of the Thorns Mercenary Squad.

Because my partner's younger brother was seriously ill and needed money for treatment, he decided to choose some tasks with high commissions to make money.

Three days ago, the members of the Thorns Mercenary Squad took on a mission released outside the church.

Banish stray dark magicians.

It is said that the task has been hung up for more than half a month, but no mercenary has ever completed it - no target can be found.

The church gave some simple information, such as the general strength of the magician, the scope of his activities, whether he has any accomplices, and so on.

When the members of the Thorns Mercenary Squad rushed to the destination and searched for a while, they found that the building was already empty, leaving only the dilapidated magic workshop.

However, one of John's archer companions, a former hunter, possessed a good tracking technique. Following some clues in the workshop, it took two days to finally find the town of Reiner.

That's the target's new hiding spot.

Immediately, a fierce siege began.

But it was different from what he imagined. It was the outlier magician and nearly ten demons who surrounded the entire thorns mercenary squad.

Allies were killed.

If it wasn't for the fact that he was relatively close to the periphery that day, he would have died earlier.

"The people of the church are a bunch of idiots! Chops!"

John burped.

"If it is clear in advance that the opponent is a demon, we will not be wiped out..."

He tilted his body, took out a black cloth bag from his waist, smashed it on the table, and made a "bang" sound.

Yaxiu glanced at it, and the bag contained a modified revolver.

"Do you know how I escaped!"

"Silver bullets! Special bullets sold by the church that have restraint against demons!"

"A silver bullet is sold at a high price of ten shillings... Those bastards, in order to escape from the devil, I emptied the revolver three times in total, and used eighteen silver bullets, a total of one hundred Eighty shillings, nearly ten pounds!"

"However, for this mission, the church will only give me one hundred and fifty pounds on the grounds that it has not been completed, plus the pension!"

"It's just a bunch of scumbags!"

John burped a few more wine burps and fell silent.

"I'm the only one left in the thorns squad, and it will be very troublesome to take on large-scale hiring tasks in the future, and other mercenaries already have their own fixed partners. I can't join a bereaved dog like me at all..."

His face was filled with confusion about the future.

After a while, the middle-aged strong man put away the black cloth bag on the table.
