Subscriber of the Gods Episode 221
Episode 221. Does it make sense?
The followers of the moon sensed something strange.
“Executive?”
Judging from the color of his clothes, it was clearly the uniform of an executive. However, the aura he felt was very unfamiliar.
And on top of that, you just left Kai Felix there, trying to run away?
As expected, the person I thought was an executive took off the hood he was wearing.
Then an unexpected face appeared.
“Uh, Mr. Ethan?”
Kai Felix couldn’t help but be surprised by Ethan’s appearance.
I don’t know what the hell was going on, but at least the Ethan in front of me didn’t look like an enemy.
“You… … !”
The followers of the moon were greatly perplexed.
Clearly, those clothes were those of the officer who commanded the operation.
Of course, the executive couldn’t be Ethan Wickers, so the conclusion was that Ethan Wickers killed the executive and took the clothes.
The followers who had grasped the situation quickly exchanged glances.
Securing Kai Felix was a failure. With the executive in charge dead, further progress was impossible, so the only option left was to escape.
“withdrawal!”
The followers quickly made a decision. They picked up one of the artifacts they had placed on the ground and quickly scattered in different directions.
“Where are you running away to!”
An enraged Kai Felix tried to chase them.
“Teacher Ethan!”
Ethan’s help was needed as the four of them scattered and ran away at the same time.
But Ethan just stood there.
“it’s okay.”
Ethan said, his bow in his hand.
“Because I don’t intend to miss a single one.”
Pull the bowstring hard.
Wheaaa …
The arrows that had been fired one after another began to shoot out in four precise directions.
“… … !”
Kai Felix watched the arrows fly in amazement.
It was truly a mysterious archery, and the archery skills that Ethan had shown in class on the first day of the training camp seemed to be only a glimpse.
Pavabak-!
Soon a sharp, piercing sound was heard from far away. But there was no scream.
“Please take care of the aftermath.”
Ethan threw a sword at Kai Felix. It was Kai’s sword.
“Thank you, Mr. Ethan.”
“It’s not over yet. You can thank me later.”
* * *
“Ugh… … Ugh… … .”
One of the moon’s followers took a deep breath.
He was carrying a box on his shoulder, and he looked as if he was handling a treasure with constant attention to it.
Thud-. Thud-.
The follower of the moon, who thought he had put enough distance between them, slowed his pace and took a hard breath.
But then, right behind me, footsteps were heard.
“Yes, what the hell are you! Ethan Wickers! How could you… …!”
“Judging by your reaction, it seems like my information hasn’t spread that much yet in the early morning. That’s a relief.”
The follower’s face turned pale at Ethan’s answer.
“What the hell is your identity!”
Ethan said he was a Dawn Sect member, not a Moon Sect member.
And on top of that, his tone of voice seemed to indicate that he knew about the identity of the dawn meeting.
The follower swallowed dry saliva at the sudden feeling of ominousness.
“Who am I?”
Ethan took the green jade out of his bosom.
“Huh… …! Th, Apostle… … ?”
The surprised follower of the moon quickly knelt down. Then Ethan slowly approached him.
“I’m sorry! I didn’t recognize you, Apostle! Oh, maybe all of this started from the beginning… .”
“Did you ask who I was?”
With his kneeling follower before him, Ethan drew his sword and swung it.
“He is the one who killed the apostle.”
The follower of the moon was killed immediately.
‘It seems okay for now. I thought the dawn meeting would be paying some attention.’
Fortunately, the dawn party didn’t seem to care much about Ethan.
‘Because there were many things that were suspicious, starting with the Inquisition.’
Of course, I kept my identity a secret so as not to arouse suspicion. However, since there were so many overlapping cases, I had to be careful.
‘If I keep getting involved in things that fail, I’m bound to be doubted.’
So, it seemed like it would be better to definitely turn this ball towards the blacksmith.
Ethan smashed the artifact that the Moon Follower had, revealing what was inside.
“… … What is this?”
The thing inside the artifact was a person. And it was someone Ethan knew very well.
“Lohai Felix?”
It was Rohai Felix, the successor to the Felix family.
Ethan was deeply impressed. Why was Lohai Felix trapped inside this artifact?
As far as Ethan could remember, Rohai Felix had never been involved in anything like this.
‘There’s no way Rohai Felix would be a target of the Dawn Meeting, right?’
I definitely came across this when I played as a member of the Dawn Society.
Rohai Felix was too risky to target as he was the deity who would lead Felix in the future.
Ethan began to piece together the information in his head.
‘They weren’t just after Kai Felix. They were trying to kidnap both of them to put more pressure on the Felix family.’
Well then, this is certain.
‘It must be because of the holy relic. If it’s the lives of Rohai and Kai, the Felix family won’t be able to refuse the deal.’
The reason they changed their plans like this is probably because Ethan revived Prochesht.
‘I need to pay more attention to the trends of the dawn meeting.’
“Teacher Ethan!”
Kai Felix’s voice was heard from behind. He was running from afar, carrying the corpses of three of his followers.
“I don’t know how to explain it.”
Kai Felix looked at Ethan’s frowning face and wondered if something was wrong.
But soon, when he saw his older brother, Rohai Felix, lying on the ground, his expression became the same as Ethan’s.
“Hey, what’s going on here?”
“I don’t know either.”
Since there was no need to explain, Ethan first left Lohai Felix to Kai Felix.
“Seeing as they even kidnapped Mr. Kai’s older brother, it seems like the Moon Followers were trying to blackmail the Felix family.”
“… … !”
Kai was shocked by Ethan’s words.
“Why on earth… … .”
“I don’t know about that. First, please take good care of Rohai. I don’t know what kind of hardships he must have had at the hands of those guys.”
“……yes.”
‘It seems like things aren’t so bad between brothers.’
Kai was looking at Rohai with a worried expression.
‘Maybe that’s why Kai Felix was so crouched.’
If the brotherly bond had not been good, Kai Felix would have also rebelled against his treatment.
But since it wasn’t that kind of relationship, I wouldn’t have been able to resist.
I guess I just had to accept the unreasonable situation.
‘Well, Kai will take care of that.’
The problem is that the relic is still in the hands of the Felix family.
And the bigger problem was that the Moon Followers would never give up the relic.
‘In the long run, the Felix family is a family that I absolutely must bring to my side.’
It is the most approachable of the twelve families. In addition, many influential figures in the Felix family highly regard Ethan, so it would be easy to build good relationships.
However, the followers of the moon were always eyeing them, so Ethan needed to deal with this.
‘I guess I need to turn my gaze away.’
Then there is only one way.
‘I must have the holy relic.’
I don’t know what kind of relic it is, but Ethan, a descendant of Moon Force, will be able to utilize it in some way.
“Let’s go back, Master Kai. Everyone will be worried. Even the Knights will be moving to find Master Kai.”
“… … Thank you so much, Teacher Ethan. If it weren’t for Teacher Ethan… … I will definitely repay this favor.”
“Don’t worry.”
I’m sure you’ll receive the reward for sure.

The dungeons of Ramsdale Castle.
Legia stood before the followers of the moon.
The Moon Follower had been repeating the same thing over and over again since being exposed by Ethan.
“Long live Mother Moon… … Long live the Saebyeokhoe… … .”
The sight of a follower blinking and repeating the same words made a strange impression on the cow.
We’ll have to try torturing him, but it’s not easy to get information out of a guy like this.
The followers of the moon did not fear pain, not even death.
They believe that death is the surest way to get to the Moon Mother they believe in.
“This won’t be easy.”
“No, don’t worry. It’s easier this way.”
“yes?”
If you have this much tenacity in your mind, it would be difficult to extract information.
But Legia was already using magic.
“It’s not like he has mental powers or anything. He’s just scared. I can get as much information as I want. And there’s no need to keep him alive.”
Shaaaaak-.
As Legia’s hand drew a semicircle, the Moon Follower’s pupils became blurry.
It was a perfect illusionary magic.
“The spell I placed on my son has reacted. Was it you?”
“Ugh… I don’t know, I don’t know… I don’t know.”
The follower began to drool along with his clumsy answers.
This magic was a magic that applied considerable pressure and stimulation to the head, and followers who were under the magic were unable to tell lies.
Of course, it was obvious that death would occur the moment the effect wore off.
“Tell me in detail what you plan to do at this new teacher training session.”
“Ka, Kai Felix… … secured… … the big shot needs to turn his attention… … .”
As soon as Legia heard that the giant’s eyes had been turned away, she realized that the magic she had placed on her son had been interfered with.
I never would have thought that someone would use this method to divert their attention.
Since the Moon Followers are said to be everywhere and nowhere, I figured I would get involved with them somehow or another.
But who would have thought that he would use the safety of his son, whom he holds most dear, to harass himself?
“Where did you kidnap Kai Felix?”
“I, I don’t know… … everything.”
Maybe because he was the one who stayed on site and acted as a security guard, he didn’t know much.
The follower could no longer withstand the illusionary magic and fell to the ground.
“This guy didn’t know much to begin with.”
“It’s okay, Legia. For now, all the paths in the territory have been closed. We’re also currently checking the house where the security chief lived. It’s a shame that we couldn’t get more information, but I’m glad that what Legia was most worried about didn’t happen.”
I was relieved to hear that my son was fine.
But at the same time, anger was rising.
“I must tell His Majesty and make sure this is dealt with.”
Not long after, one of the branch members approached Sogaju and whispered to him.
“Let’s go right away.”
“Did you find it?”
“Yes, they said they found traces.”
* * *
After the report was quickly sent to the inspector.
The Knights of Ramsdale, centered around Sogaju, immediately began searching the territory.
“From now on, no one is allowed to leave Ramsdale Territory. It is the Lord’s order, so everyone must stop!”
By order of the Sword Master, all entry and exit into the territory was strictly controlled.
The Sogaju checked without fail who went out of the territory before and after the time when entry was restricted.
But there was not a single part that was suspicious.
“Your Majesty.”
“Did you find any additional information?”
“that is.”
The head of the household looked dumbfounded at the report from the branch family.
“You found it?”
“Yes, and I heard that they caught all the followers of the moon who participated in the crime.”
“……who?”
“that is…….”
The member of the branch that reported it looked like he couldn’t believe it even as he said it.
“This is Ethan Wickers.”
“what?”
“I heard that Ethan Wickers himself asked you to do this. He said that he couldn’t just sit there and wait since he noticed that his fellow teacher was missing. And he just got back with Kai Felix.”
It had been less than thirty minutes since Kai Felix’s kidnapping was noticed.
He also quickly assessed the situation, gathered information, and moved nimbly.
But you’re back now?
Like Kai Felix who was kidnapped?
“But wait… … Did you say you caught all the moon followers too?”
“yes.”
“… … .”
For a moment there was only silence.
“Does this make sense?”
Sogaju couldn’t hold it in any longer and blurted out what was inside her.
