《Tale of Careless Goddess》Chapter 4: Fitting end
Advertisement
While judging the souls, I used clairvoyance to observe what is happening to my forces that I send to a human territory called Generous heart to punish the bastard.
I saw one of my inquisitors who I sent to lead my army is talking with a quite handsome man in his thirty. From their conversation, I found he is the lord of this city and an old friend of the inquisitor.
"Thanks, Reynold, that is why I am here to fix my mistake. "
Said my inquisitor stood up and walked towards the door with his staff.
*Ooh damn that scene looks so cool. Man, I wish I had some popcorn and coke but I can't since they not invented in this world. I against the rule.*
Following inquisitor, I finally saw the bastard who is now standing in front of a large church with my emblem surrounded by many people dressed in white and red garb. He himself dressed in a white vest with a bright red rim over a fancy robe and wearing a golden necklace with my emblem that made what precious rock came from somewhere.
*Large smile, beer belly, and unnecessary decoration even without checking his info I am 99% sure he is the one.*
"The day has come."
"I, we devoted so much to the goddess Lynne."
"Today is the day great Lynne given us a chance to meet her."
"Lynne, thou wilt be named."
"Hear me as my aged eyes widen."
"Heed, my words we wish to thy greatness and hail thy unshakable righteousness. As proof receive those mortal lives thy's, great heart."
"I must, by all means, remain in my ceremonial carb as a beacon to guide lost souls to thy's bosom."
You got some great mouth that is what I give that, but can that save from my executioner's blade.

Following Victor's bullshit, in my name, people took out a ceremonial dagger and prepared to take their lives but, my inquisitor arrives just in time to stop this madness.
"Stop! In the name of goddess Lynne, I command you to stop this grand sacrificial ceremony!"
But on the moment, people saw him they began to scream in horror, pointing towards him.
"A monster!"
"Why there is a demon here! Where are guards!"
Demons? Man clean your yes and see how cool they are. They are looks nothing like those demons well maybe.
Maybe.
While thinking about my servant's appearance, Victor began to spot bullshit again.
"Witness this abomination and person who with it!"
"See! a person who said kind and benevolent ruler is standing beside this monster. It is clear as day he hidden his fang and decided to real today to disturb our holy ceremony!"
Wow.
*Doesn't he recognize that monster he calling is a person who adopted and gave him a seat of an archbishop ?*
"Victor, don't you dare harm innocent lives using the goddess's name!"
Inquisitor said in a calm tone, but it is only on the outside I could feel his fury slowly building up inside him. The only reason he didn't chop off his head is the last bit of sentiment and my mission.
It is quite cruel to command a father to kill someone who is like a son to him, but half of this is his wish, and the other half is even by little he is also at fault for Victor become a person today.
"In the name of Lynna as long as I held my oath, I am the judge and this is trial! "
Thought connection, I felt he calmed down. At the moment, he slams his staff's end against the ground, everyone around him shuts their mouths and turns towards inquisitor and Victor. This is a sign of the start of a ritual.

Different from an act of using and manipulating mana to use spells, the ritual directly borrows part of my power. Its power depends on his faith or strength of an oath.
Well, as my servant, he can use directly, even without something like a ritual but, he still thinks he is human.
"Archbishop Victor Maximus, I am here to judge for four crimes you committed against goddess Lynne."
"What?"
On the moment he hears inquisitor's first sentence, Victor's divine expression immediately replaced with surprise then horror since he knows what is gonna happen next.
"First, using the goddess's name for your own selfish desire."
Following the sentence, a bright red handcuff appeared on Victor's hand.
"Second, trying to harm innocent lives."
"Stop!"
Victor tried to take a step forward to stop inquisitor but, a legcuff appeared around his legs forcing him to kneel.
"Third, agoing against oath you given to your goddess."
"S-someone stop that monster! He trying to harm archbishop!"
A few people tried to help Victor but immediately stopped by guards send by his friend.
"This monster you call is previous archbishop Maximus who is sent by goddess Lynne herself to punish this heretic anyone who tried to help Victo will receive capital punishment!. If you don't trust my word then see her holy army standing behind our wall!"
With straight facts thrown towards their face, even idiot will notice something wrong. Following man's word, people rushed towards the wall while others who can use spells used their spells to check outside of the wall.
"Demons!"
"Shhh! do you want to die!"
"You idiot, don't you see the symbol on their head."
"Just as stated in holy writing, they don't have eyes and carrying a symbol of Lynne."
Hearing they recognizing me and my army makes me feel rest assured that my retainers are doing good, but still hearing things like symbol, lord or holy writing make me wanna bury my self in the ground in cringe.
While they busy looking at my army Victor is finally broke down and began to plead.
"Fourth!"
"Wait! please goddess Lynne I was wrong!"
"Y-you want your gold and treasure back right! take it all of them it is in my secret room behind my chair. Just let me live, give me another chance."
"Father you know me right. I never do that, I, I was manipulated by !"
But without giving him the chance to finish his other bullshit, inquisitor cuts his sentence in midway.
"Fourth, for trying to take the name of God !"
"For such as heretic yourself, deserve punishment in front of lord's throne!"
When inquisitor finishes his sentence, a red collar with a chain connected to his handcuff and leg cuff appeared around Victor's neck and he disappeared within the light. To be more specific he sent to after life which means to me.
