The World Of The Venerate: Cursed Exorcist
Chapter 8 - Yermo comes to the rescue

Yermo attacked the store owner in a row just by using his physical attack.

Unable to withstand the blows and tendons of Yermo, the shopkeeper, who was under the influence of the mystical powers of the previous golden statue, seemed to fall to his knees before the man.

However, the shopkeeper still persisted and then wanted to launch an attack on Yermo.

The man guarding the shrine was shocked when the man who owned the store launched a missed energy projection attack that hit a tree in front of it until it was destroyed.

Gudov and Velana, who do not know about the supernatural attack, seem surprised and do not believe that humans can do this.

Although little know that some people and life masters who are often referred to as Venerate in this world are able to do this, he said, but only this time the two teenagers witnessed such a thing before their eyes.

Back in the fight between Yermo and the store owner, where Yermo quickly launched some powerful physical blows until the store owner was immediately knocked into the trees to sprawl.

“Tekhnika ekszortsista... Exterminator light..” Yermo slid towards the owner of the store then launched his light projection attack, but nimble directly avoided by the man.

As the shopkeeper flicked his hand which had sharp claws, instantly a claw-shaped slash projection shot towards Yermo.

Yermo who was late in responding only reflexively raised his hand to resist the attack. He was immediately knocked down to sit leaning under a tree and immediately suffered a wound on his hand as a result of resisting the previous attack.

“Mr Yermo...” Gudov said, calling the man out of worry.

However, his worry was useless because Yermo quickly launched a strong attack on the store owner until it crashed into a distance.

“Tekhnika exhibition... Evil exterminator light..”.

“Argh..!” Yermo then uses his Venerate powers to create a projection of light around the man who owns the character, causing him to scream in pain as the evil forces affecting him are being purified by the projection of light.

Not being able to withstand the attack from Yermo, the man who owned the store was immediately unconscious. Slowly Yermo approached him and took a golden statue from his pocket. Yermo then closed his eyes and said a long sentence that was difficult to understand.

Instantly a cloud of smoke that had previously entered the man's body suddenly came out and went back inside the golden statue held by Yermo.

For a moment the eyes of the two statues emitted a ray when they were first seen by the previous shopkeeper.

Unbeknownst to Yermo and the others, the statue then emits an aura that extends to a great distance.

At the same time, the Tengal warrior named Galshu suddenly felt the aura released by the statue.

The soldier who was walking suddenly stopped his steps and then thought for a moment.

“What's the matter Mr Galshu?” Ask the soldier who was with him.

“Shalkishu, regarding the sacred statue, it seems I just felt its existence,” replied the soldier named Galshu.

“What? Where do you feel it?” Asked the soldier named Shalkishu, suddenly surprised by the statement from his superior.

Galshu pointed to the city of Vegoblashcensk which was separated by a large river from their city.

“Negeri Pavonas.. How did the statue get there?” Shalkishu said, not expecting that the statue is now in the other country.

“It is possible that the statue had previously fallen into the river and was washed away there and by the people of Pavonas.”.

“Mr Yermo.. It turns out that the statue is on you,” said Gudov approached Yermo, surprised that all this time the statue he was looking for was in the man's hand.

“Haah... You know this thing?” Ask Yermo.

“Obviously I know. My friends who picked it up in the river. Then they also sold this gold statue to the store, although in fact they were also deceived in the end,” replied Gudov, who was a, explain to Yermo how he found out about the golden statue.

“It is a good thing that you quickly release this statue.. If not, then you will also end up like this man,” said Yermo, then save the statue back into his pocket.

“Mr Yermo, would you like to keep that thing? Didn't you say it was dangerous?” Ask Gudov.

“Of course... Who should keep it? Do you want?”

“Eh, no-no,” said Gudov, rejecting it.

“Well then it's time for you to go home.. Uh, don't forget between your girlfriends to go home first,” Yermo said as he pointed at Velana.

“What do you mean? We are just schoolmates,” replied Gudov, feeling uncomfortable when Yermo said that.

“Yah it's up to you.. I go first.” Not wanting to take a headache, the man left Gudov.

After Yermo left, Gudov went to Velana.

“You okay?” Ask Gudov about the girl's condition.

“Iya, I'm fine,” replied Velana.

“Then what did you want to say? I haven't heard it yet because the man has come to us.”

Hearing this, Velana was surprised to make her face suddenly reddened.

“Hey, are you okay?” Gudov asked once again, looking worried when he saw the girl's face suddenly reddened.

“Have forgotten it... Let's go from here.” Velana did not want to answer and immediately pulled Gudov to take her home.

–2 February 3000–

The next day the investigators found the shopkeeper at the place where the man had fought Yermo, and was eventually defeated and unconscious afterwards.

Although the store owner stated that he did not kill his own employees and did not know anything about the problem because he was under the influence of the power of the golden statue, but investigators did not believe the man's remarks and arrested him.

***

After the incident last night, Gudov and Velana returned to school as usual, and no longer feel afraid because it has been handled by Yermo.

***

At a shrine, where Yermo is located, the man is performing a ritual to try to strengthen the seal spell that was implanted into the golden statue, so that the great power that is inside the object can not come out by itself as in the events experienced by the man who owned the antique shop before.

After Yermo had successfully strengthened the seal on the golden statue, the man was suddenly shocked to feel a great amount of force from the Venerate approaching the city.
