Chapter 288

Excommunication.

It meant that a believer was no longer recognized as a member of the church.

It was a severe punishment in most religions, but it had a completely different meaning in the Constantine Holy Empire. The entire empire’s existence was built on the Nameless God, so excommunication was as good as being exiled from the empire.

In the case of members of the imperial family, there was an iron-clad rule that was implemented into the constitution of the empire—the empire had to be a follower of the Nameless God. It was an absolute rule that could not be circumvented.

This meant that Emperor Frederic had lost his right to be the ruler of the Constantine Holy Empire and had been dethroned by the Saintess.

This was not the first time Frederic was excommunicated, as he had been previously excommunicated by Pope Theopilus. However, he protested against the excommunication, which led to the current turmoil in the empire.

However, he couldn’t protest anymore as the excommunication order had come from the Saintess.

Why?

The Saintess was the absolute representative of the Nameless God.

“S-Saintess! Why would you utter such a word?! Excommunicate? Me, the emperor?! I am covered in shit right now, but I am still the rightful ruler of the Constantine Holy Empire!” Emperor Frederic retorted.

“Silence,” said Saintess Janette.

“The Nameless God has never taught his followers to push others to death just to save their own skin.”

“No! How can you compare my life to those peasants?!”

“Everyone is equal in the eyes of god, be it an emperor or a peasant.”

“B-But…!”

“You are hereby excommunicated, and it is absolute.”

“Y-You…!”

Emperor Frederic felt rage welling up from inside of him as being excommunicated was no different from sentencing him to death. He stood to lose everything, including his status as royalty.

His political rival, the pope, was finally dead, but the Saintess had excommunicated him?

“You dare!” Emperor Frederic lashed out at Saintess Janette. “A bitch like you dares to excommunicate me?! Die! Everything will be alright as long as you die…!”

The emperor picked up a sword lying on the ground and tried to cut the Saintess down.

Without the Saintess, no one could stop him from ruling the empire.

“You bitch!” Emperor Frederick screamed and raised the sword.

Puk!

Siegfried picked up a boulder and smashed it on the emperor’s head.

“Kuheok!” Emperor Frederic groaned before passing out.

“Ack! I almost got shit on me!” Siegfried cried out as he frantically jumped away.

Buzz… Buzz…

A swarm of flies orbited the emperor.

“Ack!” Chae Hyung-Seok’s cry echoed.

“Hmm?”

Siegfried turned and saw Brunhilde splitting Chae Hyung-Seok into two. It turned out that Brunhilde had made quick work of the Genesis Guild members before finally taking down Chae Hyung-Seok.

End.

This long and arduous civil war finally came to an end at an isolated village in the forest…

“Oh, hero from another dimension,” Saintess Janette called out.

“Yes?” Siegfried replied.

“Thank you very much. You have saved the people and clergymen from the clutches of evil, and you are truly the empire’s savior.”

“Not at all, I just did not want to be on the same side as those vile creatures,” Siegfried replied with a shrug.

“No, whatever your reasons may be, it is undeniable that you have saved the empire from the peril it was facing.”

“Hahaha…”

“But this is not the end of your calling.”

“Huh? But I don’t plan to do anything more than this…?” Siegfried replied before he grimaced and added, “This place has already given me enough headaches…”

“Please help me until the empire stabilizes,” Saintess Janette asked.

“Hmm? What should I do to help?”

“I, the representative of god, need to appoint a new pope and emperor.”

“So? What does that have to do with me?”

“If you would agree to become the regent until the appointment, then…”

“Have a nice day,” Siegfried said with a bow before turning around.

“H-Hero-nim!”

“Ah, what is it this time?” Siegfried grimaced and said, “I’m a busy person, you know?”

“The Constantine Holy Empire still needs you! Please! Please help me! There are hundreds of civilians suffering right now! Because of those corrupted clergy and nobles…” Saintess Janette said before biting her lips.

“I said I’m busy!” Siegfried retorted.

He was already sick and tired of this place.

‘Barely a minute passed since I finally felt free from all the frustration this place had to offer, but what? She wants me to work more? I’m not going to accept it! Never!’ Siegfried steeled his resolve to leave the empire as soon as possible.

“P-Please wait a minute, Hero-nim!”

“Stop calling me a hero! It’s embarrassing!”

He was in a game, but his fingernails and toenails still curled up at the word hero.

“Hero-nim!”

“I’m not going to do it! Leave me alone!”

“I will reward you for your troubles!”

Ding!

A quest message popped up in front of Siegfried’s eyes.

[A Savior Till the End]

[Help the Saintess to stabilize the Constantine Holy Empire.]

[Rewards: Gold, Tax Benefits When Trading]

[Progress: 0%]

[Note 1: This quest will continue until the Saintess is satisfied!]

[Note 2: You will be rewarded even if you do not directly help the Saintess!]

[Note 3: You will continue receiving rewards while doing this quest!]

A thought suddenly flashed in Siegfried’s mind after reading the quest details.

‘I think I can send a few knights to protect the Saintess while dumping all administrative work on Michele…’

The quest details definitely mentioned that he didn’t have to be directly involved.

“Hero-nim! Please! I cannot stabilize this nation alone!”

“Hmm…”

“I will make sure you are handsomely compensated for your time!”

“Saintess-nim… Do I look like someone who will be swayed by gold?”

“N-Not at all! But… please…”

“H-How much are you going to pay me?” Siegfried asked while trying to sound as indifferent as possible.

‘Ah, so he can be swayed with gold…’ Saintess Janette accurately saw through Siegfried. She smirked and asked in response, “How much do you want?”

“Ah, that is… I’ve suffered a lot even before this so… Hahaha…”

“I will make sure to reward you as much as I can within reasonable bounds.”

“All right, I will help you,” Siegfried immediately replied and extended his hand to her.

***

The pope was dead, the emperor was excommunicated, and the Saintess had awakened. Those were the events running up to the end of BNW’s first-ever civil war content, the Constantine Civil War.

None of the Adventurers received the promised bonus because neither side won.

However, there were no complaints as Saintess Janette made sure to compensate all of the participants after taking control of both the papal and imperial factions. Still, she made sure to rank the participants by their contributions to reward them accordingly, and the MVP of this civil war content was none other than…
