Chapter. 16. The saint and the perfected person (23)
****
Crash, clap!
“…Saint Ayulis? “Maybe we came to the wrong place?”
“That’s ridiculous. “The Holy Virgin of Wisdom, who is said to be the treasure trove of all wisdom in the world, asks a question to someone else.”
“Well, it seems like you are the only one who is not shaken here, Saint Ayulis.”
Saint Cherta of Wisdom spoke to the Saint of Courage, pointing to other people with frozen expressions similar to hers. She and the Holy Knights of Wisdom who accompanied her all had their mouths wide open or their eyes closed, making it difficult to use this as a standard for proper judgment.
“Weren’t we guided to where the Saint of Light is?”
“exactly.”
“The room in front of us is called the ‘Saint’s Room’ and is one of the most sacred places in the Order.”
“You know me well.”
Certa asks again for confirmation, and Aulis, the Saint of Courage, looks at her with interest with her arms crossed.
….The Church of Wisdom says: ‘Do not think that what you know is everything in the world. Knowledge grows the moment you accept what you don’t know.’ -Called.
Accept what you don’t know…. Fit that incomprehensible thing into the knowledge of the person who is here given the circumstances… If so.
Twaaaaak!
Hundreds of millions.
“…Is that the saint of light over there…the professor?”
The only thing that can be inferred from the current situation. Certa himself thought it made no sense and asked the question, but the other person nodded, stuffing his cheeks with what he was eating.
“Ummmm ahhh this is so- (Audible!) I’m sorry. I should have announced that I was eating, but all the priests who came to see me fainted. “I should have called a paladin.”
“Oh um…”
“I’m Professor Saint of Light (gulp). Hmmmm Latura. “Let’s do it.”
“…Latura Amis. “I am Certa Lacogna, the recorder of wisdom, an unchanging treasure.”
Certa La Cogna. A saint of wisdom and a being called the recorder of Amis.
The Saint of Light, whom I had never been able to meet for reasons of stability, came to visit me because I heard he had recovered. The sight of him… first of all, he didn’t look like a patient who couldn’t even walk.
‘Is this… a type of penance?’
There was a record that the believers of Gwangmyeong developed a tendency to abuse themselves after losing their saint. Mute is a being that can bring down humans with just a drop of blood, but its hard body is consumed raw without being cooked like that. Even the wise saint who was tolerant of the unknown could not imagine what it was if it were not penance.
“It’s not asceticism, it’s… a health supplement? Health food? “It’s something like that.”
“Are you talking about the poisonous mute that turns a person into a mute with just a drop of blood?”
“yes. “Because I have an unusual body.”
Cherta’s frozen face relaxed at the sight of the professor nodding.
‘A corpse taken out of a shabby sack. The sacks lined up behind them probably contain the same type of contents. In just a moment, the saint of light consumed an entire large thigh and his physical activity level increased dramatically compared to when he first entered the room. ‘You can almost see your body growing.’
The saint’s eyes sparkled, and her mouth opened like a person in a trance, and she began muttering unintelligible words to herself.
“Saint Lady Seo?”
“Something I couldn’t even imagine… something precious…”
Something completely unimaginable. However, I confirmed with my own eyes that it was real.
In general, the Saints of Wisdom are known to be calmer than other denominations, but that is only because people do not know the Amis recorders well.
In general, if you are a saint of wisdom, you have a strong image of being a local literate person who teaches people everything from writing and knowledge to how to read the weather to how to find a water vein. They revered wisdom and considered it important to preserve and spread it, so they gave their knowledge to anyone.
Teaching position. Therefore, ordinary people never saw the true face of the Wisdom Church. This is because everything that happens around them has already been stored in the Wisdom Church’s unique sacred sharing consciousness, the ‘Great Library of Knowledge’.
“Unknown… new… knowledge!”
“yes?”
Wow!
“you! Something new yet unknown! A saint of light! “You contain knowledge that has not yet been written down!”
“Saint Cherta! There’s blood, blood! “Go away!”
Their true colors are revealed only when the saints of wisdom discover ‘what they do not know.’
Unknown. The moment something completely unknown is revealed to them as real, they turn into fanatics who rush to explore and understand it.
“Was that body created by the grace of light? Do you specifically consume mutes? Or is it possible to consume regular animals or humans? What are the side effects? What is the inherent power? What is the relationship with the divinity of light? “I can touch it once, right?”
“No, that- huh!”
“I can’t stand it… I want to know, I want to know! A saint of light! Please sacrifice a little for the knowledge that will be passed down forever! “I will provide treatment in the name of Saint Cherta!”
“What do you mean sacrifice… Wow!”
Slurp!
“I really need to check out what happens to that amazing, unknown internal structure!!!”
A spirit of exploration into the unknown. That is the driving force that moves the Saints of Wisdom, and the high-ranking priests of Wisdom called the Recorders of Amis were people who were fanatically obsessed with new knowledge, to the point where they were willing to sacrifice their lives for a small piece of the unknown.
Dividing Mute into infection and treatment levels, naming them by species, and communicating response policies to ordinary soldiers and knights were all thanks to the contributions of these crazy quest addicts who risked their lives and jumped into the battlefield.
“Anatomy! Let’s dissect! Come to think of it, there was a rumor that the Saint of Light was immortal!”
“You crazy woman! “The saint is crazy!!!”
“I’ll treat you! “They said it would cure me!”
I screamed and took a step back when I saw Cherta, the Saint of Wisdom, rushing towards me, threatening to dissect me, brandishing her dagger with divine radiance.
In the commotion, which is only the second time today, the Holy Knights of the Church of Light, Wisdom, and Courage come rushing in, and
Cherta, who is somewhat embarrassed and entangled, says, ‘This person is unknown!’ The moment you shout, the Holy Knights of Wisdom suddenly rush in, and the Knights of Light rush in to stop it.
The Saint of Courage and his subordinates gathered behind him and even applauded, cheering on the hand-to-hand combat between the two tangled religious denominations.
“How dare they do this in the sacred headquarters!!!!”
The battle of the most sacred beings on the continent came to an end with the roar of Archbishop Norman, who rushed forward in a huff.
****
“….I apologize for causing trouble. “This is Saint Certa Lacogna of Amis, the recorder of wisdom.”
Certa La Cogna.
A very Western beauty with a body type close to that of a slender. tall. A saint of wisdom who carries a silver mirror around her neck, symbolizing the Order of Wisdom.
After checking, it’s a crazy year.
In the end, the madness subsided only after Archbishop Norman said that he had intended to show it anyway to check his strength after getting into a dispute over the ‘ownership of the Eucharist’. His quiet body, even his breathing seemed calm, had his eyes flashing before and he said, ‘Mijieeeeee!!!’ The contrast with Certa, who was swinging a dagger, made it even more creepy.
“…Aulis Calbright, the great warrior of Da-Karza, the god of war.”
A saint of the Courage Church. Aulis Calbright, known here as the Great Warrior. This guy has grown to the level of my size with sharp, firm muscles that seem to have less than 1% body fat. As the leader of those who believe that training is faith, and who replace prayer by throwing the trained body into battle, he had a body that was trained to the limit.
Contrary to the expectations of a macho man, he was blunt and quiet.
“Latura Tenevrie. This is Saint Tenevrie, one who follows in the footsteps of abundance. “The saint of light has a spherical face, right?”
“Oh yeah. “It’s been almost a year since I last saw you at the warrior’s meeting.”
Sitting next to her was Tenebrie, the Saint of Fertility, whom we had seen at the meeting of heroes.
A person who can handle the supply of a large army on his own.
In fact, all sacred spells cast by these priests have the unique effect of replenishing the target’s stamina and satiety. A saint from the Church of Bountiful, rumored to be the most gentle and ordinary of the known churches.
And-
“Sorry I’m late. “The Holy Knights of our church tend to be a little too… overly considerate of me.”
“Rathura lo-haram. “It is an honor to meet you like this, Saint of Mercy.”
“Latura el-Samia. I have received a favor that I cannot repay from the Holy Son of Light. “I am Panicia Delsana, the one who bows down before the mercy of the goddess.”
Panicia, a young saint of mercy who may only be ten years old.
It is said that she also inherited the saint’s spirit and was canonized just a few months ago. When they heard that I was here, they were the first to come and greet me, but I was a little late because the Paladins of Mercy were so angry that they couldn’t take even the slightest risk.
“It looks like the world is really close to destruction. “The saints and saints of the five major denominations gather in one place like this.”
“We cannot repeat the tragedy of 70 years ago. “Since I learned it so painfully, there must be something different, right?”
A saint of light.
The Great Warrior of Courage.
Recorder of Wisdom.
A saint of abundance.
Virgin of Mercy.
The five representatives of Shinsung County are clearly the pinnacle of the five major denominations, with only differences in their names.
“Hmm… I feel like my mana is shrinking when I am next to these holy people. First of all, it is Ottman Baudelaire, a water magician who is attending as a representative of the magicians stationed in Cologne and its vicinity.”
“Otman? When did you take the position of representative?”
“Did I do it because I wanted to? Right now, there are a lot of galuds, fireballs, and wizards one level higher than me in Cologne. Professor: Since I am the wizard who has been by your side the longest, it is entirely up to me to talk to you. “The original people were quick to notice… I thought it would be easier if I had a few guys like Aldrich and went around with them, but I don’t know how they figured it out, but they passed it all on to me and ran away.”
“Oh my.”
Otman, the nominal representative of the Allied Wizards.
“…I still don’t like humans that much, so I feel uncomfortable in a position like this.”
“I’m okay with the professor who is my benefactor, but other humans are a bit…”
“Just sit there. “Don’t complain later that you were given a strange assignment.”
The leaders of the beastman alliance are the werewolf Tushan Marka siblings.
“Oh my gosh – the saint of salvation! This is how we meet again! You remember me, right? “I even drove a carriage back then!”
“…Muto? “Why are you here?”
“Hmm. Oh, if I were to refer to myself as Glen Muto ‘Duke’! Under the order of His Majesty Gainax Agdan, Emperor of the Great Baltin Empire, I have come to serve as the commander-in-chief of Roderick’s reinforcements and carry out this glorious mission. Your Majesty and the Empress would like to convey their greetings. “Oh, this is a gift.”
“Glen ‘Duke’. “Then I guess your ancestor, Lord Glenn, has retired?”
“You’re already a man who only keeps his mouth clean, but his body is a boner. “Because he overextended himself during the last disaster in Hungseong, he is now living at the academy just for the fun of making young scholars shed tears of blood.”
Baltin Empire reinforcements. Commander-in-chief of 300,000 infantry, 2,400 knights. Muto Glenn.
“nice to meet you. This is Charlotte de Agat, Commander of the Knights of Roderick and representative of His Highness Erwin Siod IV in Cologne. “I attended on behalf of the Allied Forces on the Western Front.”
“You must have been tight on time, but you managed to make it on time. “There was no one among the commanders of Cologne who got in trouble for His Majesty, right?”
“There was a little noise, but one word of your name made everyone drop like a dead rabbit. “There is no problem in representing the opinions of the existing coalition forces.”
The head of the Beast Man Union.
Representative of each Magic Tower (nominally)
Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Support Forces.
And even representatives of the existing Allied Forces.
‘Yes, it has to be at this level to be called a commander’s meeting!’
The professor smiled happily as he looked at the faces of the commander-in-chiefs of each army gathered in the saint’s room.
The reason why the five major denominations were stationed at the headquarters of Gwangmyeong Church was because of friction in Cologne. I heard that the aristocratic commanders were unable to change their old habits and treated the clergy as ‘sacred workers’, which led to great friction with the church.
Thanks to this, the four major denominations, excluding Gwangmyeong, were able to stay at the headquarters of Gwangmyeong Church, which is about a day away from Cologne, and thanks to this, they were able to gather together like this.
‘…It looks like the final battle is definitely approaching.’
What I have accumulated throughout the entire 3-world play. It felt like all the ties I had formed with the allies I had saved were gathered here.
The only forced event in GG that offers completely free play.
Tushan Marka came to me through my connection, so he is here, and
it goes without saying that he is Otman.
The saint and the saint were allowed to meet with me, which had been prohibited for reasons of absolute stability, as I recovered, and came to visit at once.
The imperial army commander naturally came here as the rest of the commanders were gathered at the headquarters.
Everyone had their own reasons, but the strange overlap in timing made it clear that some external force was at work to bring them all to one place, to be exact, by my side.
Probably because the system knows that the game has reached its end.
‘Last episode. The final battle. It is a forced progression event and clear event that must occur in the end no matter how you play.’
A decisive battle in which both the allies’ and the enemy’s strengths were destroyed. It’s a river-to-river battle…
‘It’s enough to calculate the odds of victory.’
The people gathered here now were the culmination of the small victories I had accumulated so far.
“Now pay attention.”
The room, which had been noisy with small talk, naturally became quiet, as if waiting for someone to start. Well, everyone is the head of a group, from the imperial duke to the priest’s final tech, and they probably don’t know the meaning of having this many people gathered in one place.
“Even though everyone is here to visit, it looks like they are waiting for something because they are so hesitant. “If it’s okay, can I proceed?”
There was no answer, but an unspoken affirmation enveloped the room.
“great. “Then, let’s start a commander’s meeting to clean up the idiots and build the evil ‘Mutation Blood Queen.’”
There is no fancy round table from Cologne or loudspeaker magic.
There is only a small tea table in the corner and three chairs. The two werewolves are sitting on the floor, the Virgin of Mercy and Abundance is sitting on the bed, the others are standing or leaning against the wall, and the Duke of the Empire is in the habit of going somewhere for them. I even borrowed a chair from a Buddhist temple.
Nevertheless, no one had any doubts that this meeting would determine the future direction of the war.
‘There is no need to talk about complex operations and detailed troop distribution here. The most important thing to decide right now. A form of offensive.’
Before delays due to volume.
All-out war through deep penetration.
In addition, it is a place where we decide on a victory plan, such as how and in what form we will attack the enemy and how we will ultimately achieve victory. Just as the commanders of Cologne had previously planned a siege and annihilation operation, this is where they decide how to move the entire army.
The decision wasn’t difficult. That’s something I’ve been thinking about since I first calculated our troops’ strength.
Actually, this is all there is to it.
“Aren’t we just using a hammer and anvil… something similar?”
“yes.”
“The strategy of moving a large army is good….”
Our army formation roughly drawn in blood. The occupied territory and its thin surroundings are cut off into pieces.
Anyway, the hammer was only the size of a glass hammer, so it was all shattered, and only the anvil, Kingsland, and the Western Front line were hammered to death.
As I moved my finger, the formation made of blood moved smoothly.
“…Let’s completely reverse the formation.”
Reinforced infantry power and Holy Army power added through canonization.
The anvil, which was holding on precariously, was reinforced very thickly, so it was completely hit by the beaten anvil.
“Slow breakthrough. Let’s look at the scattered allies not as a base defense, but as a way to spread out and join together.”
Assuming that the number of enemies is infinite, the ‘castle’, the largest strategic weapon possessed by humans, could actually act as a poison. Just as King’s Land was ruined by contamination.
At least in my opinion, this was the only way to integrate the fragmented allies into the force.
