Apostle of the Gods

Chapter 180 - . Saria and Rose

180. Saria and Rose

When the door opened, Saria and Rose ran up to us from inside.

「Anicha!」

「Have you not slept yet, Saria?」「Woof.」

I carried up Saria with my left hand. Runrun also sniffed Saria.

「Yeah. I cannot sleep. Good boy, Runrun.」

Saria patted Runrun as he sniffed her.

She may have been nervous and unable to sleep, noticing that something was happening outside.

Nearby, Rosetta also gently carried up Rose and was talking to her.

「Let’s sleep together, Anicha.」

「I still have a little more work. I’m sorry.」

「Is that so?」

「It’s already very late at night. Go to sleep first, Saria.」

「…No. I am not sleepy… yet…」

While saying so, Saria started dozing off.

「She probably feels safe being in her big brother’s arms.」One of the staff members said.

I gently stroked Saria’s head with my right hand. A similar situation was happening with Rosetta and Rose..

I want to hold Saria for a while longer, but our allies are still fighting at the gate.

Rubeum and Dura are also fighting in the sky.

I have to hurry up to them.

「Please take care of Saria.」

「Of course. It’s our job.」

I hand over Saria who has fallen asleep to the nursery staff.

「Sleep well, Rose.」

「Mhhm…」

Rose was also sleeping.

Saria and Rose were both so nervous and couldn’t sleep.

They suddenly fell asleep as tension was released from their body.

When Rosetta reluctantly handed over Rose to the staff,

「Will, be careful!」

『Will! Be careful!』

The divine spirit Fay and the dragon god’s godkin Rubeum warned me at the same time.

I moved away a little so as not to wake up Saria and Rose.

「What’s wrong, Rubeum?」

『There is a really dangerous guy over there! I want to help you, but my hands are already full over here.』

「Leave it to me. So, how dangerous is this guy?」

When I asked Rubeum, I also noticed the presence of that dangerous guy.

He was slowly descending from the sky towards the academy.

『Will–…』

「Rubeum?」

『………………』

The call with Rubeum was completely cut off.

「Will! A barrier has been set up!」Tina shouted in a tense manner.

「Yeah, I noticed too.」

The dangerous guy slowly came descended from above the clouds.

As if matching his descent, the entire academy was enveloped in a barrier.

It was the same kind of barrier that the Cardinal whom we defeated earlier used.

The barrier probably made it impossible to maintain the connection with Rubeum.

「Xenovia, Regina, Dion, Milt! Can you hear me?」

『…………』

「It doesn’t work, huh.」

However, Rubeum must have told Xenovia that this is bad.

Both Rubeum and Xenovia were outside the barrier so they could contact each other.

I informed Arti, Tina, Rosetta, the godbeasts and Fay via telepathy.

『A powerful guy is coming. It’s an enemy. We have to buy time until Xenovia arrives.』

That said, I don’t know if Xenovia can afford to come to our rescue.

And I also informed the staff.

「It’s a new enemy attack. A more powerful enemy. Please take the children inside.」

「We shall also fight outside…」

「No, leave the fighting to us. Please prevent the enemy from invading inside.」

The staff of the nursery are members of the Salvation Organization, so they are incomparably stronger than an average adventurer.

Nevertheless, they are not as strong as those in the active combat department.

The staff are mostly healers who have retired from the combat department, and many from the research department who have excellent academic knowledge.

「Please leave this to us. We may seem unreliable, but we are the direct disciples of the Council of Sages.」

I smiled while stroking Saria’s soft hair.

Runrun was also reluctantly sniffing Saria

「We saw your skill earlier, so we have no doubt about Will-san’s ability.」

「Yes, please leave it to me.」

We entrusted Saria and Rose to the staff, and stepped out of the building.

Runrun also came out with me with a determined expression.

The door was closed immediately and it was tightly sealed with magic.

I also cast protective magic on the entire building in addition to the seal.

With this, even if an explosion magic hits the building, it will not crumble easily.

「What kind of enemy is it?」Rosetta asked me, as I was looking tense.

「I don’t know, but I think it’s a demon. It’s also a Cardinal class. If it’s coming down here, it probably wants to destroy the academy.」

Fluffy, who was also nervous, was on Runrun’s back.

「I’m counting on you, Fluffy.」

「Pigi!」

「Meeeee!」Shiro also bleated in a lower voice than usual, and transformed into his giant form about 3 meters tall.

「It’s been a while since I last saw your giant form, Shiro.」

「Mee.」

The last time Shiro went into his giant form was when we defeated a beastkin for the first time, I think.

Shiro understood that he should take this fight seriously too.

And then I stroked Runrun’s head.

「Thank you as always. This is the first time we’re fighting together, right?」

「Woof.」

Runrun’s limbs were overflowing with energy.

Fay, who was next to Fluffy, said.

「I have accumulated a lot of mana.」

「Thank you. That will help.」

「This is a message from the princess. “Don’t die.”」

「Yeah. I don’t feel like dying today.」

The princess that Fay mentioned, the Human God, is also very worried it seems.

This is the first time that the Human God sent down an oracle to warn me.

It must surely be a very scary opponent.
