Bone King: Homemade plug-in, I am the god of destiny Chapter 049

“Is that them?”

Everyone was equipped with complete magical gear, appearing to be far more powerful than ordinary adventurers. They were precisely those unidentified individuals he had seen before.

Gazef’s eyes swept over the members of the Black Scripture but did not linger, moving straight into the room.

“Greetings, Warrior Captain Stronoff.”

“Miss Enri, greetings to you.”

Hearing the greeting from the host, Gazef politely responded but noticed that the girl seemed a bit nervous, with a hint of the timidity that ordinary commoners of the Kingdom showed when meeting important nobles.

This was not hard to understand, as she truly was just an ordinary border villager not long ago.

“Please, have a seat.”

“Thank you.”

After sitting down in the arranged seat, Gazef proactively expressed his purpose to Enri, “Miss Enri, I came this time to express my gratitude to that esteemed individual, and also to seek answers to some questions. I wonder if you could help me convey my request?”

Enri seemed not at all surprised by this, but she did not convey his request for an audience to his true target as Gazef had hoped.

“I am very sorry, Warrior Captain Stronoff, but the Divine One is not willing to meet with you.”

Gazef frowned upon hearing this but was still unwilling to give up, so he pressed, “May I ask why?”

“Well, because the Divine One seems to have anticipated your arrival and knows why you are looking for him, so he asked me to answer your questions and handle all related matters.”

Enri spoke subtly, but those present were not fools and could fully understand the implied meaning.

That person simply couldn’t be bothered with them.

If it were anyone else, even the Emperor of the Baharuth Empire, everyone would feel slighted, but if it was that person… it seemed perfectly reasonable.

The strong possessed such privileges, not to mention beings who had reached that level.

However, it didn’t matter as long as the problem could be solved.

Gazef thought to himself.

As he pondered, his eyes once again scanned the Black Scripture members.

He was the Warrior Captain of the Kingdom, coming to seek aid for the safety of the Kingdom’s city, so what were these people doing here?

If they were just ordinary adventurers, having experienced such an event, they would surely know that E-Rantel was a dangerous place now and should leave as soon as possible.

At this moment, the captain of the Black Scripture spoke to Enri, “In that case, Miss Enri, please enlighten us.”

“Oh, and please allow me to introduce myself. I am a member of the Slane Theocracy’s organization. My name is Evin.”

Theocracy?

Gazef, who was beside them, narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing the captain’s self-introduction.

Previously, the Six-Colors Scripture of the Theocracy had carried out an assassination plot against him. Although they were all captured in the end because they kicked an iron plate, it didn’t mean he had no grudge about it.

However, that assassination attempt also had the support of Kingdom nobles behind it. Even if he exposed the truth of the matter, it would most likely be suppressed by the nobles for other reasons, making it impossible to pursue accountability.

Thinking of this, his gaze towards the Black Scripture members slowly began to turn unfriendly.

And while some of the Black Scripture squad noticed his change in expression, no one paid it any mind.

If it weren’t for the purpose of instigating conflict between the Kingdom and the Empire to accelerate the Empire’s annexation of the Kingdom, simply wanting to kill Gazef would be effortless for them.

The captain continued to question Enri, “Our high-ranking officials in the Theocracy are very concerned about the existence of that undead being, so they specifically sent me to inquire. Does that esteemed individual know anything about that undead being?”

“One of my purposes in coming here is also this,” Gazef chimed in from the side.

It was indeed this question.

After hearing both parties’ objectives, Enri couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, then, following what Han Yu had told her, she introduced to everyone, “Regarding Ainz Ooal Gown, what the Divine One knows and what we have seen are different.”

“The Divine One said that the Ainz Ooal Gown he knows is not a single person, but a terrifying organization composed entirely of heteromorphic species members…”

The girl, in a gentle tone, explained about Ainz Ooal Gown, the Great Tomb of Nazarick, and other existences one by one. Upon hearing that the heteromorphic organization allegedly had forty members comparable to the undead being they had seen before, Gazef and the Black Scripture squad members’ expressions all became very solemn.

They did not suspect that the information given by Han Yu was deliberately meant to intimidate them.

Firstly, because Han Yu’s own strength was terrifying enough that whatever he wanted to do to them would be effortless, making such an act unnecessary.

Secondly, when they left the battlefield that day, Gazef’s surviving warrior squad members indeed saw many heteromorphic races coming to support that undead being, indicating that the other party was not alone but indeed had a force supporting them from behind.

“Miss Enri, since that terrifying organization sent that undead being to infiltrate the city, perhaps they are preparing to take action against this city. With our current strength, we cannot possibly contend with them, so may we request that esteemed individual to lend us a hand?”

After understanding the information he wanted to know, Gazef’s mind was disturbed by a sudden sense of crisis, and he urgently stated his second purpose.

However, Enri showed a strange expression upon hearing this and said, “Um… Warrior Captain Stronoff, I can understand your feelings, but the Divine One probably will not accept your request for help.”

“Why!?”

Gazef suddenly stood up from his seat and questioned loudly.

However, he immediately realized his rudeness, took a few deep breaths, and bowed to Enri, “I apologize, I was rude. Could you please tell me why that esteemed individual is unwilling to help us?”

Enri nodded and explained, “I presume you also learned yesterday that although the Divine One can suppress that unknown undead being, if faced with multiple enemies of that level, he might also be overwhelmed.”

“The Divine One said that in this city, he only cares about us, his believers. As for everyone else, well…”

Gazef was speechless for a moment.

Yes, a god was not a babysitter for all humanity; no one could demand that they risk their lives for unrelated people. Facing a troublesome enemy, the fact that they were willing to protect their believers already made them a qualified god.

While sighing internally, Gazef made a final attempt, “Then, may I humbly request that esteemed individual to extend a helping hand for the sake of you, his loyal believers? Once the city faces a crisis, Miss Enri, you, his believers, will also be in danger, won’t you?”

“Uh…”

Enri’s expression was a bit embarrassed, with a hint of apology in her eyes, “Warrior Captain Stronoff, you might not know this, but we, the believers of fate, have the Divine One’s blessing and cannot be truly killed.”

“As long as the Divine One is still here, no matter what kind of death we experience, we can be resurrected again.”
