World's Strongest Troll

Chapter 273 Gael Federation (3)

Mechanium, a small town in the Gael Federation.

Haimer, an ordinary young man who was born and raised here, was an outstanding magic engineer.

“If we can superimpose the magic circuit diagram, we can increase the magic efficiency several times compared to now.”

“This is the magic accumulation diagram I envisioned this time. How about making it this way?”

He has a combination of intelligence and understanding that no one dares to follow. That's why I was able to enter ‘Steam Main', the highest school of magical engineering, from a young age, and I caught everyone's attention and stood out, but it wasn't such a good thing.

“Sheesh. What do you think a young bastard knows about?”

“Ha..... This project is completely broken. He also conceived a much better circuit.”

“No, what if you take all the subsidy by yourself? Are we just sucking our fingers?”

Colleagues around him who unintentionally suffered damage due to Haimer's outstanding performance. Their envy and jealousy intensified day by day, but no one could hurt them because Dumble, the Master of the Steam Main School and the leader of the Mechanium, trusted him.

Until now.

“Your Haimer ignored, deceived, and insulted me, the Steam Main School, and everyone in Mechanium in front of the representatives of all the cities of the Gael Federation. Do you admit that guilt?”

The scene of the People's Tribunal.

Dumble stood right in front of Haimer, who was lying there, looking down with cold eyes. Heimer, who was covered in blood at his words, muttered in a crawling voice with his mouth constantly opening.

“It's unfair... Master...”

“This bastard is still there!”

Dumble and his disciples are furious at his words. And soon, as if everything was useless, he raised the staff he was holding in his hand with a murderous look and said,

“You, Haimer, a magical engineer of the Steam Main School, have betrayed this city, your teacher, your colleagues, and everyone else and caused irreversible damage. Therefore, I excommunicate you with the authority of the Master of the Steam Main School for your sins.”

Whoops.

A dumble that charges a devastating orange beam with a powerful condensation of magical power.

He said in a cold voice with a cold smile.

“Also, as the representative of the Mechanium and the supreme decision maker, I will execute you according to the crime of treason.”

Pooh.

Dumble wants to execute himself immediately after the death sentence. As soon as he finished speaking, the destructive beams pouring out of his cane flew without hesitation to burn Haimer, who was crawling on the floor, but something suddenly appeared in the middle of it, and it was unable to fulfill its purpose.

Whoops.

“What is it?”

“Who are you!”

An intangible membrane that blocked Dumble's destruction beam.

Seeing this, all the bewildered looked around and immediately found a person standing behind them.

“Anyway, I expected it because it was a democratic republic, but that's what it is.”

A village that doesn't look much different from a barbaric feudal society. I don't know if all of the Gael Federation is like that, but Jaeyoung, who watched the people's trial in the town square and hung a person for ignorance, was able to draw a rough estimate.

“In what era are we judging so ignorantly? yes? Don’t you know the saying, don’t hit people even with flowers?”

Haimer collapsed in a dying state and seemed to be out of breath in just a moment.

Glancing at him, Jaeyoung raised the power borrowed from El.

“Heavenly Hymn.”

Whoops.

The mighty divine power that surrounds Heimer's body along with the casting of the skill.

As the highest level of recovery magic, which is said to completely restore even a person on the verge of death, unfolded, everyone around them widened their eyes.

“Poetry divine magic?”

“What's the priest of the Saint Empire doing here...?”

Up until recently, people who had given Jae-young grim eyes that seemed like they would tear him apart. However, as soon as Jaeyoung showed his divine power, their attitude began to change dramatically.

‘If I touch the priest of the Saint Empire... I don't know what will happen.'

‘It was almost a big deal. If I hadn't known and had swung my fist... I might have really died...'

The residents of Mechanium trembled with expressions as if they were really X's.

Seeing this, Jaeyoung looked at L with a slightly absurd face and asked.

“What the hell is Saint Empire’s image, why do people react like this?”

Jaeyoung thought that if he was a priest or priest, he would feel respect, intimacy, or welcome, but the expression they were showing was very different from his common sense.

fear itself.

They were reacting as if a demon descended in front of them, and L shrugged his shoulders at Jaeyoung's question.

“They must be people with a corner to be stabbed. An innocent person would have no need to be afraid, but a guilty person would certainly be afraid.”

Justice for the wicked. Blessings to the sages.

El and her subordinates have a very strong concept of punishment.

That's why the priests of the Saint Empire were also thoroughly carrying out those teachings.

“I don’t know the owner, but are those chicken wing idiots really crazy? If you think you're guilty by their standards, just kill them all.”

The Saint Empire, which has no concept of moderation, where if it is judged to be guilty, it will be punished without mercy without mercy.

That's why those who had been conducting an irrational witch hunt in real time had no choice but to be intimidated.

“Ah... is that why you are so frightened? Are you afraid I will destroy them all?”

Jaeyoung has no idea. However, when I stared at the crowd with expressionless eyes without any inspiration, they froze in shock as if they had come with a different feeling.

“Great servant of the Saint Empire, I am Dumble, the representative of Mechanium here.”

Dumble spoke first in the suffocating silence.

He smiled kindly and greeted Jaeyoung as politely as possible.

‘Well... I wonder if I can play along with the rhythm, right?'

Those who seem to be mistaken for high-ranking priests of the Saint Empire. Even though he had nothing to do with it, at this moment, he was a high priest of the Saint Empire so perfect that no one could doubt it.

[Apostle of Salvation, Mercy.]

In the past, Mercy, a priest who devoted his life to helping all the sick and powerless, wandered all over the continent and did good deeds. Her devotional actions caught the eye of El and even granted her divinity as an ‘apostle'. Her power was so powerful and sacred that no one dared to doubt it.

“This is Dex, the high priest of the Saint Empire.”

Jaeyoung accepted Dumble's greeting and introduced himself.

Dumble's expression became complicated at the mention of Saint Empire, and he asked cautiously.

“May I ask why you came to this city?”

Priests of the Saint Empire who cannot be easily found on a daily basis.

It was not something to be taken lightly that a high-ranking priest who could only be found at the church headquarters in a major city appeared in person in such a small city. However, at Dumble's question, Jaeyoung smiled and asked back.

“There is no particular reason. It just moves as God wills it. Rather... may I ask this poor child why he is doing this?”

Hymer's body has been completely restored by heaven's hymn. He got up from his seat, unable to hide his surprise, and hesitated, not knowing what to do in this awkward and uncomfortable situation.

“That's it...”

Dumble was taken aback when asked directly what was going on. Seeing him like that, Jaeyoung pointed his finger at Haimer and asked.

“Will you tell me?”

“Is that me?”

When asked to explain the current situation to himself, Haimer asked back with a rather embarrassed face. In response to his question, Jaeyoung smiled and nodded.

“okay. It seems like you said you were unfair... What is wrong with you?”

People who no one listened to or even tried to listen to them. In the midst of such an unjust death, when the mysterious priest who saved him listened to his story, Haimer began to reveal everything that had just happened in a heartbroken heart.

“Hmm... So you mean that there is a Magical Engineering Society, and in the middle of an argument with another school, you sided with the rival school?”

A magical engineering school that has been divided into several schools. The conference, where they all gather and present each other's achievements and research results, was the most important event of all.

It was also a battle of pride between the schools, but with the achievements here, it was possible to obtain high-grade mana stones and enormous research subsidies, which were produced in very small quantities every year, so for the development of the city and the growth of the school, it was necessary to enter the rankings regardless of means and methods. .

“Oh, it can't be helped! Contrary to what we thought, it has been clearly proven in the experiments of the opposing school that the conductivity of mana has a greater effect on the efficiency of magic circuits than the level of mana stones.”

Haimer chose his conviction as a scholar between his conviction as a scholar and realistic interests. However, at his remark, Dumble burst into anger again.

“This damn bastard... so! Was it right for us to humiliate you at the place where everyone is gathered, saying that our research for a full year was wrong? If it wasn't for you, our Steam main school wouldn't have suffered such a humiliating situation. If it wasn't for you!”

“How is it! Master said that as a magical engineer, you need to have the attitude to learn new things without being ashamed of your mistakes!”

“This baby ..... I have to look at the situation too! situation!”

Heimer, who fights against evil, and Dumble trembles while glaring at him with fierce eyes. Looking at the two of them, Jaeyoung let out a sigh.

“Haa..... Well, I know roughly what the situation is.....”

Haimer throws away his social life and runs the dog My Way as he pleases. Of course, his teacher wasn't right, but Jae-young, who realized that it was an ugly situation where no one could say he did well, looked at L with eyes that still didn't know and asked.

“Why the hell did you ask me to save a guy like that again?”

Suddenly, L urged Jaeyoung to save him. However, Jae-young began to feel a bit of regret at his behavior, which seemed to be more troublesome than he thought.

“Hmm... I don’t know yet, but this one thing is certain.”

“If you keep that child by your side and watch him grow well, it will be a great source of strength for you later.”

L, who always gave meaningful advice. He asked because Jae-young had roughly noticed that she could see something that others couldn't.

“Like that shit hand?”

“I don’t know that much, but it will be useful for now.”

“Um... is that so?”

At those words, Jaeyoung thought about various things in his head and started tapping the calculator carefully.

‘It's ambiguous.....'

Haimer, who is an NPC different from those he has helped so far.

Of course, he had helped Carlos before, but in his case, he was already building a powerful force called the Black Pirates, and he was a strong force that couldn't be ignored even in Arcadia, so it was worth investing in, but the person Jae-young needed to help now was different.

‘I don't know exactly... Magic engineers are completely productive jobs...'

Jae-young, who had been thinking for a moment, made a decision and looked at the two fighting aung daung.

“hey. Didn’t you say you were excommunicating this child?”

“yes....?”

Dumble asked back with a puzzled face at the sudden question. He hesitated for a moment, then looked at Jaeyoung with questionable eyes.

“It is, but... Why do you ask that.....

” “Then this child has nothing to do with this city and the Steam Main School?”

People looking at Jaeyoung with eyes as if asking why. Feeling their gaze, Jaeyoung pointed at Haimer and said.

“Then just give that child to me.”

“yes....?”

“What is that?”

Everyone, including the person concerned, asked with puzzled eyes.

It's like the situation where you don't even think of the person to give you rice cakes, but you drink kimchi soup first.

Dumble hesitated to answer with an ambiguous face, as if he could not dare to refuse because the high priest of the Saint Empire is not such a comfortable existence. And seeing Haimer standing next to him with a very uneasy expression, Jaeyoung laughed.

“why? Do you not want to follow me?”

“Uh... that's...”

Heimer blurted out the end of his words, as if he didn't say anything good even after he died.

In response to his reaction, Jaeyoung asked brightly with a smile on his face.

“Do you want to be judged by the people and die here? Or will you just follow me?”

Haimer followed Jaeyoung like that.

However, he bitterly regretted that choice shortly after.

Just wondering if it would have been a more comfortable life to be beaten to death by an angry crowd.
