Just became an evil god and was summoned by the saint.

Chapter 41 Is this still the saintess I know?

"what happened?"

Elena and her two school instructors landed on the ground and were somewhat stunned to see the knights lying haphazardly and the remaining traces of magic.

While the other two mentors checked the surroundings, Elena rushed over and pulled Celia up to check her over.

Seeing that Celia was alright, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're alright. Tell me, what happened here?"

“I beat up the temple knights and the high priest,” Celia said.

"You brought...what? A Templar Knight? A High Priest?"

Elena didn't react for a moment.

The instructor inspecting the battlefield walked over, his expression quite interesting.

"The fallen people were not heretics, but knights of the Holy Court, and there was also a high priest, who seemed to be the high priest of the Snow Fir Town Temple."

The three looked at each other, and then simultaneously turned to look at Celia.

Celia's fair cheeks flushed slightly, and she lowered her head. "It's like this..."

She told the three of them about the problems she encountered at the temple, and what happened before and after the high priest suddenly appeared with knights while she was preparing to deal with the contaminants.

"You mean you defeated a third-tier mage, plus five first-tier knights?" Elena asked repeatedly to confirm.

Celia nodded.

"It was just good luck. Thanks to Mr. Jack, he was the one who subdued Dylan. I only helped out a little."

Jack: "?"

Another mentor came over and said, "The High Priest of the Snow Cedar Temple has had his magic core shattered and can no longer gather magic power."

The three looked at Celia, thinking she probably couldn't do it, and then looked at Jack lying down.

Jack opened his mouth, as if to say something, but Celia had already said, "It was me. Lord Dylan ignored my objections and tried to kill all the villagers of Bea Village as heretics. This is my punishment for him."

Elena and the other two: "???"

Elena hesitated for a moment, then went over to examine Jack and said, "His injuries are mostly healed, but he's still unable to move due to excessive magic consumption. He'll be fine after a short rest. Hello, we are instructors from the Holy Magic Academy. We need your cooperation in investigating the situation here later. Is that convenient?"

Jack nodded.

Even if it's inconvenient, it has to be convenient.

The three in front of me were of indistinguishable rank, their magic was profound, unlike Dylan who had been corrupted by life. I couldn't beat them, I simply couldn't beat them.

Elena exchanged a glance with her two mentors. One of them took Jack away, while the other stayed with Elena and put the five knights and Dylan together.

“Regis, please send them back and have the judge priests of the Temple of Embers come and take over the Temple of Snowflakes to convict them. I’ll go with Celia to check out the anomaly.”

Regis nodded, raised his hand to cast a levitation spell on all the injured, and then carried them away.

"Is this the pollutant we collected?" Celia asked, looking at the room emitting waves of pollution.

"Yes, I'm counting on you, Instructor Elena."

"Wait for me over there."

Elena went into the house and didn't come out for a long time.

The pollution coming from inside has faded considerably.

"Celia, can this house be burned down? There are too many pollutants; the whole house is now contaminated and unusable."

“It can be burned, thank you for your trouble, sir,” Marina’s voice came.

She had just settled all the villagers and was preparing to come and fight the enemy together when she arrived, only to find that it was already over.

They even arrived slower than the "law enforcement team".

"Row."

Elena raised her hand, and the entire house turned into a sea of ​​fire.

After placing a magic circle around the area to prevent the fire from spreading, she beckoned Celia to get into her flying vehicle.

“Celia, take me to see what’s wrong over there.”

"it is good."

Celia boarded Elena's flying vehicle with the puppet, which was a magical device resembling a unicorn.

"Miss Marina, could you please keep an eye on things here? We'll be right back."

"Okay, don't worry."

……

Upon landing at Lake Bea, Elena immediately sensed the persistent pollution.

The pollution is very mild; it won't affect ordinary people unless they stay inside for a long time.

The traces looked familiar; Elena quickly connected them to the traces near the school. She understood.

"So this is where it was. We searched the area around the school and the city of Huijin from top to bottom, but we couldn't find any trace of the heretical ritual."

She turned to look at Celia: "How did you find out, Celia?"

Celia blinked: "I just happened to be here to do a mercenary job."

"happen?"

"Yes, I went to the Mercenary Guild to ask if they had any challenging missions, and they recommended this one to me, so I came here."

Elena thought about it and felt it must be true.

It couldn't have been Celia who came looking for us, could it?

"I see, that's a great help to us."

Elena patted Celia's head, as if she were meeting Celia for the first time:
"I never expected that you would find the heretical contamination that has been troubling us for so long, and even help the Holy See get rid of a scourge. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have suspected that you were the one who did it."

Of course, what shocked Elena even more was that Celia could fight against a third-tier mage. Even if she fought with someone who was a useless third-tier mage, that was still extraordinary.

Celia blushed after being told that.

She couldn't possibly do that.

It was all done by the evil god.

She is actually suspected of aiding the enemy...

"Leave this to the school. You can't handle the situation here. Come back with me later."

“Okay, but before I leave, I’d like to say goodbye to my friends in the village.”

"Okay, I'll take you there."

……

After sending Celia back to Bea Village, the mentor who had been asking Jack about the situation finished making notes and went with Elena to Bea Lake to deal with the anomaly there.

Celia found Marina.

“Miss Marina, our school has taken over the matter of Lake Bea. Don’t worry, the school will definitely handle it well and will not let you be disturbed again.”

"Thank you, Miss Celia. I'm so sorry we don't have enough money to pay you. This is what I saved up..."

"No need, the 10 silver coins for the commission are enough. If you need anything in the future, you can find me at the Holy Magic Academy. Just mention my name."

Marina seemed a little flustered. She hesitated for a moment and asked, "I'd like to ask, are there... any heretics in the village?"

Celia thought of Jack, the only heretic in the village; the others had all come into contact with contaminants by accident.

But that's what Ross said; none of the school advisors said whether Jack was a heretic or not...

"No, don't worry." Celia shook her head.

"That's good."

"By the way, where is Uncle Jack? I have some questions for him," Celia asked.

"He was at home, and that man took him home."

"Okay, you stay here and keep an eye on things, I'll go find him."

……

Celia brought the puppet to Jack's house and found Jack lying on a mat by the door, sunbathing.

"Uncle Jack, are you feeling better?" the girl asked with concern.

"I feel much better. Thank you for your healing spell, Celia... my lady."

"Just call me Celia."

"Thank you, Celia. You called me here because you need something, right? Ask away, I'll tell you everything I know." Jack knew Celia would definitely come looking for him.

“You’re a second-tier mage, right?” Celia asked.

Jack nodded.

Are you a heretic?

Jack paused, lost in thought.

After a moment, he said, "For the Holy Court, I suppose so."

"Really? Why are there no signs of contamination on you?"

Jack remained silent for a long time. He looked at Celia carefully, but instead of answering, he asked a question.

Do you know about the Hiro Association?
