Chapter 277: Decisions About The Final Battle Part 1
With the battle over, the time has come to see the state our troops are in, we need to know how many are still in combat condition and how many have died.
In addition to these things we need to discuss what to do going forward, to be honest, I've been thinking about this for the last couple of days, but after what happened in today's battle, after everything we learned about Fraus' secret weapons which are these crystals magicians, looks like I'm going to have to rethink the initial plan.
I'm in the meeting room waiting for the others to arrive, I think I'll check the notifications while I wait.
Ding! Ding! Ding!

"You said that this symbol belongs to this Heretic God you spoke of, but do you know anything about this God?" (Sapphire)
"All I know is that this God is strongly linked to death, they say he consumes souls and that whenever his name appears he comes with an army of undead, but there is something peculiar about his stories." (Elsaris)
"What would that quirk be?" (I)
"I must say that this is just a rumor I heard over three hundred years ago, but they say that their believers are always Necromancers who can only create or control Undead that has a physical body, like Zombies and Skeletons." (Elsaris)
"But that coincides with our current situation, that's basically the description of Farus and his army." (Helena)
"All of Farus' troops are just that kind of undead with physical bodies." (Nymph leader)
"As Farus himself is a Necromancer who controls this army and considering this symbol that appeared so much in the monster that his generals became when these two items." (Sapphire)
"I think we can bear that Farus must be a believer of this Heretic God, perhaps even a Priest of his." (Sapphire)
"" (I)
"(I already knew that Hera who is the Fairy Queen of Wood had already told me about it.)" (I)
I look at Elsaris and I can see her smiling at me because her gaze seems to see right through me, I was wondering if she read my expression or something.
"You don't know anything else about this Heretic God, Miss Elsaris?" (Sapphire)
"I don't know anything else, I only know what I just talked about because I worked at a Black Market branch where a believer of this God was our customer." (Elsaris)
"I remember we sold a lot of Human bodies to that person, not long after I heard about a village that was devastated by a horde of Zombies." (Elsaris)
"What did you do about it?" (I)
"I didn't do anything, that wasn't my problem, I didn't sell anything, I didn't kill anyone either, you might also remember what kind of place the Black Market is." (Elsaris)
"On the black market any commodity, no matter how rare, dangerous, prohibited or legal, can and will be traded." (Elsaris)
"The Black Market also doesn't care about the age, gender, nationality, race, origin, intention or plans of customers." (Elsaris)
"All that matters to the Black Market is that the merchandise is genuine and that a fair price is paid for it whether you buy it or sell it." (Elsaris)
"This kind of place makes life easier for people like Farus, did you work for a place like this?" (Sapphire)
"I worked for centuries, I'm not proud of the things I've done during my work, but it's been a long time since I didn't care about that kind of thing anymore, after all, I've done I'll always be a criminal, so I don't care anymore." (Elsaris)
"How can you have someone like her by your side Zenos?" (Sapphire)
"She has her reasons for choosing this type of work, reasons that don't concern anyone else in this room, besides, she said, even if the Black Market didn't sell illegal goods, others would show up to do it, maybe even doing worse things than the Black market." (I)
"There will always be this kind of thing, remember that village leader." (I)
"But let's not change the subject, you are straying from the topic that really matters, we are not here to discuss the Black Market, we are here to discuss Farus and this Heretic God." (I)
I had to speak up to get the conversation back on track, normally I'm the one who strays off-topic without realizing it, but I had to continue this meeting somehow.
It was also good for everyone to know about this Heretic God now, I was getting worried about it until now and I didn't know if it was worth telling everyone.
"The most important thing is to find out what those two items are." (I)
"If you haven't been able to find out I don't know if she'll be of use, but you can try asking Nira to use her appraisal skill on these two items." (Elsaris)
"It's worth trying." (I)
"Freya could you call Nira to please?" (I)
"Yes, Master." (Freya)
