324. Emerging Religion (5)
「The divine < word spirit > is used.」 「You can use your holy power
to influence the real world with words.」
It will be done.”
“Kneel. 》
The moment he said that to Zhang Wei while activating the Divine < Speech Spirit >.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!!
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Wei’s body was pressed down, and a scream of pain echoed through the hall.
“Kuk-!”
It was worth it.
Even if Zhang Wei received divine power from the godhead, it was still at the level of a preliminary apostle.
It was just a trivial catch for me, who had faced countless adversities and finally entered the realm of ancient godhood.
[Are you sure you understand the situation at this point? ]
Then I looked down at Zhang Wei with cold eyes and said.
[In the first place, something like you wasn’t even worth fighting for. ]
As if looking at an insect that was sharpening its blade as if it could win against a wild beast in earnest.
But didn’t he like being looked down on as if he was so insignificant?
Before he knew it, Zhang Wei gnashed his teeth with his eyes wide open and let out a vicious sound.
“Keep it off…! A bastard like a buggery aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…! I played a cowardly trick…!”
But that was only for a moment.
“Be pressed down. 》
The moment when he activated the Divine < Speech Spirit > again and increased the pressure on Zhang Wei.
thud.
“Kek…!”
Zhang Wei’s eyes widened slightly, and his face began to contort in pain.
“You rotten bastard…”
But do you still have the strength to use your tongue?
Despite directly realizing the power gap, Zhang Wei continued to curse.
And seeing that, I smiled and activated the Divine < Sword Spirit > again.
“Be pressed down. 》
Kwaaang-!
“ugh…! ha hot! I can endure this kind of thing…!”
“Be pressed down. 》
Kwajijik-!
“Fuck… if this is solved… you will tear your limbs apart and feed them to the dogs…” 《
Be crushed. 》
“───!!”
Crackle—!
How many times did he have to repeat the sound that was scattered throughout the conference room like breaking sorghum cans?
Suddenly, the sound of breaking and tearing rather than cracking something echoed through Zhang Wei’s body.
To the point where it wouldn’t be strange even if it ended in death.
And…
《Smash it…》
The moment he tried to activate the sacred < Speech Spirit > again on Zhang Wei.
“Enough…”
[ …? ]
“Forgive me… please…”
[ …. ]
Before he knew it, Zhang Wei spoke as if begging with tears flowing down his face.
Only then did I slightly loosen the constraints of the Divinity < Lord of Words > on Zhang Wei, and spoke as if I was genuinely curious.
[What the hell are you talking about? ]
“Please save me…. Please have mercy on me…”
[Wei Zhang. Didn’t you say you were the best in the world just a few minutes ago? Then you have to do your best to beat me in this spot. ]
“I was wrong…”
[Yes? ]
You don’t even have to listen to Zhang Wei’s words to the end.
[Still, it’s too late to call back now. ]
As it is, I walked over to Zhang Wei and lightly touched his head with my toe.
As if lightly rolling a soccer ball forward, the action is truly light.
I didn’t really intend to put too much effort into it.
I had no intention of killing Zhang Wei on the spot anyway.
It’s just a matter of being “slightly” by my standards but not “slightly” by Zhang Wei’s standards.
Kwaaang-!
Soon there was a sound of something exploding, and the moment Zhang Wei’s head tilted back once.
“Kwak…”
Puff-.
Jiang Wei’s eyes darkened and his body stretched out.
At first glance, it looks like it’s dead… but
in fact, it only caused a light concussion.
If left as it is, Zhang Wei will probably recover like a superman before long.
Only then did I completely cancel the Divine Spirit, and I touched the nape of my neck and said in annoyance.
“Making you unnecessarily strain…”
Then, I sat down while looking around the conference hall filled with suffocating silence.
Not only the middle-aged man who seemed to be the representative of the Seoul Hunter Association, but everyone in the audience looked at them with astonished eyes.
Like it doesn’t look like the same person at all.
However, I got used to this level of treatment anyway, so I smiled and said as if I was clearing up the cluttered atmosphere.
“Hey…”
And then.
“With this, it seems that the relationship with the Celestial Church has been roughly settled.”
Soon, the moment when the divine power quietly shimmered in the eyes.
“Can I hear what happened so far?”
In an instant, the time of confession began.
***
Time passed quickly.
‘I think I know roughly what happened.’
Eric and Kim Ik-chul, who introduced himself as the representative of the Seoul Hunter Association, quickly explained the situation.
And listening to the explanation, I was able to notice what had settled in the main axis of the Tenshinkyo.
That would be the case…
‘It’s a structure that worships a certain deity, and it’s the most efficient way to spread it.’
Tensingyo was conspicuously structured as an apostle parasol along with deity worship.
“It’s one of the tricks of the godhead.”
Even if it wasn’t, I guessed because I could feel the presence of divinity in Zhang Wei along with Eric.
Perhaps the identity of the person who did this on Earth was a god.
And that guess has now turned into half-certainty.
‘There’s a high probability that he’s at least a divinity with enough status in another dimension.’
It was worth it.
This is because the path that the Celestial Church has walked so far has been too biased toward the worship of the divine.
Even the process was familiar, as if I had done this a few times.
‘Earth must be a kind of restaurant for the godhead.’
Even if it wasn’t, I couldn’t help but sigh as this had happened a couple of times before.
‘In the end, the problem is that there is no proper divine protection on Earth.’
And that’s why I was able to notice that this would happen again and again.
“…”
Perhaps this can be done only when a proper deity takes root.
The earth is not an empty house, so if it is announced that no one can explore it like a restaurant, such tricks will disappear.
But even so, I couldn’t put down roots here.
Unlike ordinary divinities, I paved the way for myself and came to this place with mythical power rather than someone else’s faith.
The trajectory of life itself is far from leading a religion and being worshiped by everyone.
So I didn’t really want to establish a religion on Earth.
‘…And it’s a waste to spend time on Earth.’
Even more than anything, I didn’t want to waste my time establishing a religion.
Just as the 27th floor of the Tower of Trials is now approaching…
There is already a lot of work to be done.
“….”
To use the Remegeton where the truth of the Tower is recorded.
To achieve the long-awaited wish of the White Crane Inspection.
And in the trial on the 27th floor of the tower beyond that, changing the predetermined future that the god of proof said.
Thinking about that, it wasn’t very pleasant to waste time on Earth like this.
‘…This seems like the only correct answer is periodic sweeping.’
So I had no choice but to exclude the establishment of a religion from the options.
‘…Well, it would be a different story if I happened to get a proper religion on Earth.’
Of course, it’s not that I don’t have thoughts about religion at all.
If, on Earth, a religion about me naturally arises and grows, I would have thought to manage it to a certain extent.
Time would not be so much wasted on a religion so established.
But soon after thinking about it, I smiled and then shook my head to erase the thought from my mind.
‘There’s no way something like that could happen…’
And as soon as I put my thoughts together, I looked at Kim Ik-cheol and asked him a question.
“By the way, don’t you know where the head of the Celestial Church is?”
At that, Kim Ik-cheol was taken aback, then nodded with a worried face and replied.
“…yes. In Cheonshingyo, only members other than the religious leader appear. The headmaster himself is not showing up.”
In fact, even if it was the Hunter Association, it was said that the head of the Celestial Church could not be identified…
That was understandable.
If the head of the Celestial Church is truly a god, you won’t be able to find out where he is as a mere human.
Still, just in case, I asked Eric if he knew anything.
“…I don’t even know! I really am! The religious leader always issues orders through the apostles, so there’s very little to know!”
It was equally unprofitable.
“I heard that this belongs to the Heavenly Church, but I don’t know anything about it.”
“That… But among the members of the Tenshinkyo Church, I know a lot in my own way…” ”
So, don’t you know where the people you serve are or what they are?”
“…”
“Enough. Then, the apostle who gave orders instead of the religious leader. Where is he?”
“uh…? No… I’m not sure about that either—.”
“If you really don’t know that, you’ll die.”
“…Now, wait a minute!”
Eric shook his head in fright, probably knowing that life is precious though.
“…but I can’t help but guess!”
Is this why the saying that hawks are medicine is floating around?
Before he knew it, Eric rolled his eyes and seemed to roll his hair in an inappropriate way.
Even the sound that came out of his mouth wasn’t that bad because it was more proper than I thought.
“…Ah, maybe the apostle is in London.”
“The basis.”
“…because the last time I met the apostle, he said he was going to persuade David Taylor from the Clock Tower.”
“okay?”
Actually, based on the apostle’s schedule, he seems to have guessed where he might be
…
It seems that the influence of the Tenshinkyos has spread quite a bit, and their hands have reached troublesome places.
“…And there is a possibility that the religious leader may be there.”
Not even that.
“A teacher?”
From Eric’s mouth, who had said he didn’t know anything, came up with a rumor about the religious leader, albeit speculative.
“It’s only speculation, but… the apostle said this when we went there…”
Even…
“If things go well in London, many strong people from all over, including David Taylor, will gather.”
It’s also in a different form than I thought.
“And there, they will subdue all the strong and make them worship the headmaster…” “
….”
“Even if the four apostles are strong, you won’t be able to subjugate them all. So the leader can appear…”
“It’s okay now.”
“…uh?”
and.
“I think I know now.”
next moment.
“Where and what does the head of the Celestial Church want to do?”
Just like that, I smiled with the intent to kill, and my eyes flashed.
