Became the Academy’s Munchkin Power Priest

16 – Your Identity

Over 150 Heretic Questioners have arrived in Visilia.

“Huh? With black armor and black priestly clothes…. Aren’t they the Heretic Questioners? Why are those people at school?”

“Really? Who made a pact with the devil? I saw it for the first time in my life….”

Students on their way to school looked at the procession of Heretic Questioners and said.

Everyone knows the Heretic Questioner group, but it was a group that was hard to see with the naked eye, enough to be called a secret group.

So I had no choice but to draw the attention of the students.

The Paladins in the foreground were wearing armor with the pattern of the Church of Anas painted in white on a black background, and black cloaks fluttered.

And the priests at the back of the procession were dressed in black, not white.

Paladins covered their faces with helmets, and priests covered their faces with hoods.

They held aloft a black flag with the cult’s emblem on it, a flag that could be identified even from a distance.

Students who saw the procession of Heretic Questioners stared in awe for a while, then ran into the classroom. Because I felt overwhelmed.

It wasn’t just the students.

The teachers, not knowing why the Heretic Questioners came, quickly sent the children up to class and followed them.

Florina looked back and forth between her empty seat and her magic clock. She also saw the Heretic Questioners on her way to work. The moment she saw them, her heart sank.

Despite having no contact with the devil, I sometimes had a delusion that a misunderstanding might have arisen and come to catch me.

Also, there are rumors that even if they are related to the devil, they are subjected to cruel torture, so it was natural for them to develop allergies instinctively.

Then the clock pointed to the hour. A time when all students should be present.

One seat was empty.

It was Gran’s seat.

I scolded Gran for time problems from the first day, but in fact, Gran was never late. Always just on time.

But today was different.

Even though it was time to come, the seat was empty.

‘… Isn’t it? Yeah, there’s no way he could have anything to do with the devil. Yes, I was called because I was a priest. But….’

Florina looked at the empty seat of Gran with anxiety inwardly.

Maybe it was because she saw the black interrogators in the morning.

She kept getting anxious.

‘Where did you go at a time like this?’

Florina thought that rather than scolding Gran for being late, she just wanted her to come and sit in her seat.

Even though Gran was a student, she had a bit of an adult side to her, and for some reason she was trustworthy.

“Teacher…. Why did they come? And where did Gran go? Maybe Gran made a contract with the devil….”

“I’m sorry, but the teacher didn’t receive anything either. And in your opinion, would Gran be that kind of kid?”

“Yes? But for a priest, he has a very good body…. Having good stamina and committing cheating….”

“Don’t talk nonsense and be quiet. We just need to focus on today’s class.”

At that time, a priest opened the classroom door and came in.

He bowed her head to Florina and conveyed her message.

“Today there will be a heresy question. Students and teachers can wait in the classroom. If the Heretic Questioners come in, you should do as they tell you. We will also search your accommodation. Then…. Control please.”

“Ah, yes….”

As soon as the priest left, the students expressed fear and dissatisfaction.

“Everyone, calm down and take your seats!”

Florina raised her voice to calm her children, but she was just as anxious as her students.

‘What the hell is going on?’

***

The Heretic Questioners have arrived.

I met the Heretic Questioner along with the president, Viteo.

“Are you here?”

I said to the frontmost driver.

He looked around and got off his horse.

“Hey, how long has this been?”

As he took off his black helmet, his golden hair fluttered.

“Have you come to war? What the hell is this troop?”

The unit Ryzen led was an elite unit of Heretic Questioners.

The Heretic Questioner was operated in five units.

First, the elite troops.

It was a unit led by Ryzen, the commander of the Heretic Questioner. They were a unit made up of only elites, and consisted of only second-class priests and second-class paladins.

As an executive of the elite unit, High Priestess Zea.

And it was Limeria, an elite paladin who could be said to be on the same level as the high priest.

After that, there were the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd units composed of about 200 people.

Then, independents who were not affiliated with anywhere organized the unit according to the mission. Half of the Heretic Questioners were independent.

FYI, I stepped down from the 2nd unit executive position 2 years ago, wondering if the sense of belonging hindered my growth, and I am currently independent. It was more comfortable to go alone.

“Are you doing this to someone who ran out of worry?”

“Heh heh, it looks like you haven’t had anything to do lately.”

The high priest behind Ryzen, Jea, opened her mouth.

“Didn’t I tell you that I was overdoing it? Long time no see. Grand.”

She bowed her head in greeting.

“It’s been a while.”

Someone suddenly crossed his arms.

Among the Heretic Questioners, the only one who would fold his arms around me was the paladin Limeria.

“Limeria-sama, it’s been a while.”

“… Uh? How did you know?”

“Heh heh…. The only person who can arm me with arms is Lameria-sama.”

“Oops…. Then I am a special person to Gran-nim?”

As I was saying goodbye to the reunion, the president behind me opened his mouth.

“You have worked hard to come a long way. I am Kellycia Willode, Vice President of Viscilia.”

“Nice to meet you.”

The two shook hands and exchanged greetings.

Afterwards, after Ryzen heard the details of her last case, she immediately started searching for the heretic.

“Isn’t that Gran?”

A student looked out the window and said.

Students stood up to take a look at the sound of Gran.

Florina also moved toward the window and looked outside.

There was Gran.

Gran was talking to a paladin with long golden hair.

“Why is he over there?”

“Isn’t that guy really a heretic?”

“Eh, that article is smiling too brightly for something like that?”

“Is that so? Are you even having a conversation? But that article is handsome….”

The children chatted busily.

“Everyone, be quiet and take your seats.”

Florina was confused.

For what reason are you saying that your classmate is talking to the Heretic Questioner over there?

Actually, it made no sense that she was outside because Gran was a priest. Yes, Gran is only a student, and when she looked at the class next to her to understand the situation a moment ago, a priest student was sitting in her seat.

Kungkung!

Slowly.

The door opened with a knock on the classroom door.

It was a paladin in black armor and a priest in black priestly clothes.

The students who had been talking a while ago became quiet for an instant. Tension reigned throughout the classroom.

A knight clad in ironclad approached Florina.

Florina swallowed her saliva without saying anything.

The knight placed her hand on Florina’s forehead. After a flash of light, the knight silently headed for the student.

If you only look at the appearance of a knight, the term black knight would have been more appropriate than a paladin. So is the atmosphere.

That moment.

It was the sound through the window.

“Heretic! Catch it!”

The children started to get scared one by one because of the screams.

Despite the commotion outside, the knight didn’t care and tried to put his hand on the next student’s forehead.

“Whose body are you putting your hand on?”

A student said.

She was the Imperial Princess Aliana von Kelpert.

When she resisted, the knight seized her sword.

Sereung.

“Wait a minute!”

The moment the knight was about to draw his sword, Florina shouted.

“That kid…. I’m a princess. The princess cannot be a heretic….”

The knight turned her head to listen to Florina and then looked at Aliana. Then he took her hand again.

“Get rid of it.”

Alyana said, shaking off the knight’s hand.

“What are you guys doing right now? Is it okay to push in like this recklessly?”

After the princess asked, the knight opened his mouth.

“We are only following orders. It is an order to search all teachers, students, regardless of status.”

“Haa, so you’re saying it’s okay to be so forceful? I hate it.”

Surereung.

The knight drew his sword.

“Yes, if you can cut it.”

The princess glared at the knight without batting an eye.

***

Aliana was humiliated.

Isn’t she the princess of the Soleias Empire?

However, there was nothing she could do to overshadow her status as a princess.

She was chained on her knees.

No matter how tightly they were tied, blood couldn’t flow through his hands tied behind his back, and he couldn’t even breathe properly.

Her students, teachers, and heretics, regardless of status, were chained next to her princess.

Some people were crying out for help, and others had already lost their minds.

After a while, a man entered the tent where the princess was being held.

It was a man with a face like a beast.

“Huh uh uh uh!”

A captured heretic shuddered at the sight of the man’s face.

Aliana’s pupils dilated as if they were about to explode.

That’s because I knew the man who had just entered the tent.

It was the same class priest Gran.

He surveyed the crowd of heretics and met Aliana’s eyes.

Gran’s eyes narrowed.

“Why are you here?”

“That’s what I’m going to say.”

“Heh heh….”

Gran has arrived. His large hand moves in front of his eyes.

The princess instinctively turned her head.

“I’ll take you in half.”

“What? How are you?”

Aliana couldn’t understand.

Gran was just a student. Even though he is a priest, he is a probationary priest. But by what authority did he take me to class?

Gran untied her rope and lifted her up.

He brushed the dirt off the school uniform with his hand.

Then he grabbed the princess’s hand with his huge hand.

“You have a bruise on her wrist.”

The warm light eased the pain in my wrist. The blue bruises soon disappeared.

The princess was dumbfounded.

“Then follow me.”

The princess swallowed her saliva and followed Gran. She was worried that things might be getting bigger for no reason, but when she looked at his back, her feet moved by themselves.

I could see the Heretic Questioner from afar.

“Hey, then you….”

The Heretic Questioners looked at Gran and the princess.

A little while ago, the princess averted her eyes, realizing that her status had no effect.

However, they turned their heads again as if nothing had happened.

‘Why is no one saying anything?’

The two of them passed between the heretic questioners and headed to the classroom.

“Please! Please! I just did what I was told!”

Fur Ock!

A student fleeing down the hallway was caught by interrogators.

“Heh heh, come quickly. Black magic is dangerous.”

“Ah…. Okay.”

Now that her status as the princess has faded, she, unlike usual, followed Gran like an innocent sheep.

Gran stopped in front of the classroom.

“Then go in quickly. Please don’t come out until I have another message.”

“You?”

“Ah…. Viteo-sama called me.”

Gran lowered his head and moved on.

“Hey, you. What is your identity?”

Gran smiled gently.

“Aren’t you a student from Visilia? hahahaha.”

He smiled as usual and moved on with his steps.

‘What are you really doing?’

The princess thought while looking at Gran’s gigantic back.
