Raising Paladins

Episode 25. Plundered Marauder (3)

“Win! Priestess won!”

“Waaa!”

“Priestess!”

Merchants come pouring in.

After they wrapped their swords around, they stretched out their hands to the sky and hurrahed.

In particular, Terrence, who was helped twice, was tearful.

“I believed! The priest will win!”

“I have never seen such a great fight! Over 20 scavengers alone and even a boss turner! This Turner is notorious around the area, and if you take his head to Tournoble’s office, you’ll get a big prize! Congratulations!”

The brand also helped out with a word.

At that time, several other merchants were stealing weapons from the remaining scavengers.

“Give me this! Did you see what happened to your boss?”

“If you don’t want to end up like that, everyone drop your weapons!”

“hurry!”

Chaeng-Geurang!

Scavengers who have completely lost their will to fight.

All the hideous weapons they were holding fell to the floor.

Seeing that, Carl said.

“Brand, could you collect all their weapons in one wagon? Metal can be melted down and used.”

“Oh, I see! Is there anything else I can help with?”

The Lawless Zone, the biggest risk for going up Tournoble.

The sword subdued the scavengers who took control of the lawless area and did all kinds of evil.

Where is that?

He didn’t just subdue him, he slapped the head of the boss.

It’s a great achievement that can be called a complete sweep.

From a peddler’s point of view, since these guys disappear and they don’t have to spend huge convoy fees, it’s a huge benefit!

It was understandable enough that honey dripped from Brand’s eyes as he looked at the knife.

“Please wait a moment.”

Carl asked Brand to wait.

He went to the scavengers with his head down and down.

“Your boss has already paid for his crimes and went to the side of the sun god. What are you doing? If you want, let me follow the boss.”

“omg!”

“Sah, save me! Warrior!”

“Please save my life… … .”

dump!

The scavengers flocked to the sword and knelt down.

Carl showed a small smile, saying he knew that.

It was also the reason why Carl took the boss’s life.

‘These guys form a bad group once again. It will be difficult to fix even the nature, but we have to show you that you can die while looting near Meirium.’

For instance, Turner warns of other looters that may arise in the future.

The effects were already showing.

“good night. Then don’t even come close to Meirium. If you promise me, I won’t kill you.”

“thank you! thank you!”

They kneel down and put their foreheads on the ground.

Carl asked them again.

“Before you go… … You must return all the wealth you have accumulated so far. Because the riches you took from other good people. Isn’t it?”

“Yes… … .”

The scavengers were sh*t-chewed faces.

He said he would let me live, so I was thinking of grabbing my money and running, but it all turned into nothing.

However, when Carl drew his wooden sword again, everyone pointed in one direction as if it had never happened.

“Hey, over there! I have stored up my riches in my hiding place under the rock over there!”

“I didn’t even ask, but you’re kind enough to tell me. How much is the approximate amount?”

“one… … It should be around 50 megakrons.”

“… … !”

A much larger amount of material than expected.

Carl was also slightly surprised by the unexpected news.

‘That’s enough to repair all the old parts of the Temple of Dawn. For the time being, I won’t have to worry about food expenses.’

Of course, the Temple of Dawn’s family has increased a lot due to the recent hiring of new recruits (?).

So, there are a lot of things to do with money.

But at 50 megakrons, I thought it would be fine for a while.

The problem of providing a steady source of income remains.

However, the riches of the plunderers were enough to become rain on the dry land.

“Brand, please load the wealth these guys have gathered into the wagon.”

“After loading all the weapons, there are not enough seats. Would it be okay if we put our wealth on an extra wagon?”

“Is it a cart that a person can pull?”

“of course. I always carry a few small carts with me just in case you don’t know that it’s a peddling job. Just like before, the wagon wheels could suddenly collapse.”

“I see. How many carts are there?”

“There are six.”

“Hoo… … .”

Carl smiled contentedly.

Six seed candidates, still whimpering with crates of fruit by the lead wagon.

Carl’s eyes were on them.

“It’s good that there are guys to pull the cart. I would like to ask you a favor.”

“yes.”

Brand, along with merchants and scavengers, headed to a hideout far away.

The situation is truly a happy ending as the notorious looters have been swept away and all property has been confiscated.

But then, Carl heard a strange sound.

‘Hmm?’

Carl quietly closed his eyes and focused his divine energy into his ears.

For those who are allowed to use it, divine power is a very useful power if you learn how to handle it.

Carl was using that power to temporarily amplify his hearing.

-Brother, shouldn’t we run away? Is that priest really good at fighting?

-That’s right, Brother Josephson! Besides, that priest is now wearing a long sword! That guy named Turner just set it up for no reason and ended up just giving away a longsword!

– Even with a wooden sword, you can explode people, but if it’s a real sword… … Did you just see what Turner was doing? No matter how many pages there are, there is no hope. Brother Hanson has to come himself!

– No… … .

A whisper in Carl’s ear.

I could tell at once who they were even when I listened to them.

I’d heard that guy’s voice moaning at the end before.

Swoop!

Carl said, pointing with his wooden sword to the bushes far away.

“Don’t hide and come out.”

Carl’s actions were rather sudden to the merchants.

However, everyone was surprised when a gang of 20 or so appeared from the bushes.

“Since when have those people been there!”

They were sticking twigs and blades of grass all over their bodies.

Some even had their faces painted in natural colors.

Appearance that seems to be determined to camouflage.

‘It’s a raiding team.’

Looking at them, Carl recalled old memories.

Surprises and raids happen incessantly on the battlefield.

It hides in the bush as it does now, and when the enemies pass through the valley, it rolls stones and trees to sweep it away.

Or, there is a method of digging a hole under the ground and then suddenly jumping out and startling the enemy’s horse to cause confusion.

At that time, I used to decorate my body with trees and grass like those guys.

From nob le mt l dot com

Josephson and his gang must have come to attack him.

‘It’s obvious to see that he’s been hiding until now.’

In fact, Carl knew before the fight even started.

I knew the exact identities of those hiding now, but I noticed right away that a group was holding their breath in the bush.

The divine power emanating from the silver heart on his chest has already permeated every part of Carl’s body.

Even in his previous life, he was the number one person in the empire in terms of handling divine power.

But now, no one feels the divine power.

In a world like this, the divine power response that only swords possess was truly a transcendental ability.

‘If I don’t use divine power to fight, I can even see the movements of insects from far away.’

So as soon as I climbed the hill, I could sense that the enemy was hiding.

‘If you were going to attack me with Turner, you would have jumped out right away. From what I’ve been hiding all this time, he probably thought I was going to get beaten by Turner.’

After all, it is obvious what Devaldo and Hanson did after kissing.

What if Carl gets beaten by Turner?

Then, the escort with the written contract is a failure.

Devaldo sits down and gobbles up temples and huge farmlands.

What about Hanson’s gang?

Since the sword was attacked, then he flashes like a hero, fights the scavengers, and rescues the merchants.

So, Hanson’s gang also owes a lot to the merchants!

But in the end, all of them failed.

Because the knife is alive and well.

Where is that?

After asking Turner for his crimes, the scavengers were blown apart in the air.

Now, as long as you return safely to Meirium, the only thing that will sit on the money cushion is the sword and the temple.

In addition, more than 20 newly appeared seeds are added!

He must have come here with the name ‘Raid Team’.

To Hana-Karl, it was just a large number of ‘seed candidates’.

“Heh heh… … .”

Carl let out a grim laugh.

When Josephsson saw that sullen smile, he felt an eerie feeling.

‘I… … That smile!’

I’m sure I’ve seen it in the temple.

The same smile he had before beating Grom and the children he took with him!

All of them were captured by the temple and became their servants.

Like Daryl or Peter, he’s probably washing poopy diapers or doing other humiliating things.

From nob le mt l dot com

Josephson suddenly foresaw the future of the children who came with him!

He shook his hands and feet.

“It is you. A rat-like guy. I must have given you a chance.”

“That, that… … .”

“Seeing that he showed up with a weapon again, he probably didn’t even listen to me, right? I’ll punish you properly this time.”

“for a moment! Wait!”

As Carl tried to approach him brandishing a wooden sword, Joseph Son hurriedly stretched out both hands.

The mouth that was slapped by the knife a few days ago still hasn’t settled down yet… … .

If I get hit again today, I might be really sick.

‘I’d rather have attacked Turner earlier… … .’

If so, there might have been a chance.

But it is useless to have such regrets now.

None of the swords were hurt, and I even got a steel longsword.

Now, it seemed to me that the military would have to be mobilized to really catch that priest.

‘No, maybe it will be difficult even if the army comes… … .’

No matter how you think about it, the answer is only one.

dump!

From nob le mt l dot com

Josephson knelt down.

“Sin, sorry! Please, just save me!”

“I have no intention of killing you. I’m just trying to give my soul away properly.”

That’s it!

From nob le mt l dot com

Josephson remembered the brutal assault he received from Carl last time!

A cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

At that time, Carl lowered the wooden sword for a while and said.

“hmm… … Looking at it, I think it might be useful.”

Brands and people who come with loads of scavengers’ wealth just in time.

However, there were so many goods that six carts were not enough.

‘Well, 50 megacron isn’t even a dog’s name.’

If it’s worth that amount of wealth, the amount will surely be enormous.

Maybe those riches that you are bringing now are not all.

Carl, who suddenly remembered the use of Joseph Son and his gang, nodded with a smile of repentance.

“Hey, you guys!”

“yes?”

“You all become temporary porters for the guild for a few days from today. Got it?”

“The porter… … What?”

“why? Don’t you want to?”

“Rather than that… … .”

“The one who is dissatisfied, come forward. I will tell you why.”

Booong! pop!

Holy power exploded from the tip of the wooden sword that the sword lightly shook! and exploded

Then, Josephson and the gang, who were kneeling, nodded at the same time.

“Ha, I will! Please hire me as a porter!”

Hanson’s gang of 20 came to attack Carl.

It was the moment when the hideous men with hatchets and daggers at their waists turned into obedient porters in an instant.
