Episode 450 Crisis at the Green Pavilion

When I returned to Shibu Paper City, I gathered the members of the Battalion. I was curious about Palmiro's case, so I decided to explain it to the members of Battalion.

　He explains about St. Palmiro to everyone gathered in the dining room of the Green Pavilion.

He said, "Wow, St. Palmiro is famous for being a saint."

　Karina voiced her surprise. Taichi let out a sigh.

It's one thing to have a gift, it's another to have a personality.

Well, that's what I mean. I don't expect you to do anything violent in Japan, but be careful."

　Chika turned her gaze toward me.

Isn't it Dr. Grimm who is the most dangerous?"

I have my shadow puppets, so I'll be fine."

　Alisa looks worried.

Where do you keep the blood of the Dragon King?

They need to be frozen, so they're in the freezer in the warehouse. I'm sure they'll be fine now that Bokden and the others are here."

　Bokuden and his friends, cat-shaped shadow puppets for security, are many times more powerful than human muscles. If there is an intruder, they will catch him easily.

"Will they try anything nefarious?"

　Amane also looks worried.

Palmiro is a wolf in the skin of a saint. So Palmiro himself is constrained to continue to wear the skin of a saint. He probably wouldn't do anything to damage his reputation."

　I said, and Tesshin nodded.

"It's a trick to keep your reputation intact, isn't it?

　I don't trust Palmiro a millimeter, but I don't think he's stupid. Whatever he does, he will not set it up himself.

　The next day, Palmiro easily left Japan. He seemed to have gone to another country for treatment. That was a bit of a relief. Normal life returned, and a hospital in Tokyo reported that they could use Ryuoh's meat to treat illnesses, so I went to see them.

　The disease is said to be one in which the muscles become emaciated and emaciated. They said that eating the meat of the Dragon King improved the symptoms. I was convinced by the explanation of the doctor at the hospital, so I decided to ask him to use the meat of the Dragon King for my treatment.

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

　We will give them about 20 kilograms of meat that we obtained by dismembering the head. We will also give it to a research facility to see if they can identify the ingredients and develop a medicine.

　After dinner with hospital officials, it was late at night when I returned to Shibusi City on my way home. When I arrived at the Green Pavilion and entered through the gate, I noticed something strange. Normally, shadow puppets for security would come running, but they did not appear.

　I took Elmore and Tamegoro out of the shadows and headed for the warehouse. I figured that if anyone was going to be targeted, it would be the warehouse. The lock to the warehouse had been broken.

What's wrong with the Bokdens?"

'Maybe it's in a warehouse.

　We entered the warehouse, being cautious. As soon as we entered, we noticed that what had been a shadow puppet had fallen to the floor. Its torso had been cut in half.

　I bite my lip and move on. There I encounter masked bandits. Four bandits are trying to take something of value out of the warehouse.

Get him!"

　When I gave the order, Elmore and Tamegoro attacked the bandits. Showing an overwhelming difference in power, they reaped the bandits and captured them. When the masks of the captured bandits were removed, a foreigner appeared from inside.

　I rush to check the freezer. The freezer is empty of the Dragon King's blood. I went back to the bandit's place and checked his belongings. No Dragon King blood was found.

　I interrogated the bandit, but could not understand a word he said. We had no choice but to call the police. The bandits arrested by the police were Syrians. They seemed to have been hired for money to rob the place. They seemed to have been former adventurers who were magic-users in magical costumes.

　According to police investigations, five men broke in with the man who hired them. After defeating the attackers, Boxden and the others, the man who hired them seemed to have gone back ahead of us after finding something in the freezer of the warehouse. The remaining four men were in the middle of rummaging for something of value when we returned.

　They did not break into the mansion, so Nezu was unaware of it.

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware of that at all."

　It was fortunate that Nezu did not notice. The bandits were quite skilled, and with Nezu, they would have been turned back. It was amazing that Elmore and Tamegoro were able to overpower such a group.

　The next morning, Arisa and the others heard the commotion and Tesshin rushed to the scene.

Is this the work of a faux saint?"

　Tesshin seems angry.

Maybe so, but I have no proof. But there is no proof.

　The arrested bandits apparently had no knowledge of those who hired them.

I heard that the Bokdens were cut. Is it true?

　Chika asked with a sharp look.

Ah, all three of them have been killed. But the magic core is intact, so it can regenerate. But this time we will need to make the body more powerful.

Does Palmiro make Amrita?"

　Amane asked. I had my doubts on that point. It is inconceivable that the only material for Amrita is the blood of the Dragon King. There must be other rare materials needed. It is hard to believe that Palmiro possesses all of them.

　I told her what I was thinking and Yukari nodded.

I will look into Amrita at the university."

　Yukari's university has a collection of books on magic potions. There may be information about Amrita in the collection.

　The thought of Palmiro getting the Dragon King's blood and laughing so hard pissed me off, but it was my fault for reassuring him that he'd be fine since he had a shadow puppet for security.

I thought Palmiro would use his contacts to pressure us, but it seems he chose the most direct method. It's surprising."

　Hearing Chika's words, Arisa countered.

Maybe Palmiro didn't want the Japanese powers-that-be to see his backstory."

　That made sense to me, too. I guess he didn't want to let them know that he was vulnerable. He didn't want the Japanese to think, 'I heard you were a saint, but you are a snob like us.

Shouldn't we report this to the leadership of the Adventurers Guild?"

　He nodded at Arisa's suggestion. I'll talk to Director Jikoji.

　The next day, I went to the Adventurers' Guild in Tokyo and met with Director Jikoji.

What's wrong with you?"

"There were bandits in my home, and the blood of the Dragon King was stolen."

I'm sorry to hear that. But what does this have to do with the Adventurers' Guild?"

Is there any connection between the Adventurers Guild and St. Palmiro?"

No, I don't.

　I'm history with St. Palmiro.

warp and weft

He explained that the

I can't believe it. I can't believe that St. Palmyro is a fake saint. And that he wants Amrita.

Is there anything in Amrita?"

In an inscription found in the dungeon, there is a sentence that says that to become a god one must attain immortality.

　Is Palmiro trying to be a god?　But what kind of being is God as defined by the dungeon?
