Chapter.6 In the name of glory (4)
***
People were crowding around like a swarm of ants near the church building. Everyone was cleaning hard, holding wooden brushes or rags, and perhaps that was why the pure white building stood majestic without any traces of flood damage.
Deeng-
“Oooh ratura lo haram.”
“Latura. “Give me rest…”
While the professor was admiring the majestic sight for a moment, a heavy and deep sound of a bell rang from beneath the ground. While the church members were praying to the sun, admiring the sound that seemed to resonate through their entire bodies, from the tips of their feet to their feet, the professor sensed what looked like small holes opening regularly around the building.
“I don’t know why they made it like this, but I have to admit that it is a very strange structure. “Every time the bell rang, the ground rang along with it, making it feel like it was part of some very large ritual.”
– Speed Wagon: Almost all Gwangmyeong Church buildings adhere to this type of construction method. Rather than simply stimulating the hearing through ringing sound, the sound, vibration, hearing, and tactile senses are stimulated at the same time to create a strong impression of the sound of the bell.
– Noru Drug: What does that mean? So, if you make a bell ring underfoot, people will remember things better than if they just hear the sound?
– Speed Wagon: Think of it like a fresh orange. When you think of orange, you can imagine its scent. Conversely, when you smell an orange, you can think of the orange. If you increase the number of stimuli related to an object, the number of channels through which you can associate the object increases. Naturally, a deeper image remains.
– takealook: How can you make someone like me understand? Damn, 1 hit is strong?
– Speed Wagon: Anyway, that construction method is a very clever design in that regard. If you leave a strong impression on church members, that will lead to strong faith and ultimately strengthen the church. Of course, there are many other reasons for burying the bell in the basement of the church. Religious organizations in this world often use underground facilities. There is a theory that it is believed that the souls of criminals will be purified if they listen to the bell ringing so loudly in the dungeon that it shakes their brains.
– Muqaba: Oh, someone who plays as a priest recently confirmed that, and it’s not a story, it’s a fact. As a lay priest, he was carrying the servants of a high-ranking priest, and it is said that he was happy and smiling every time he heard a bell ringing and a scream coming from the other side of the stairs leading to the basement. It is said that when heard from outside, the scream sounds like part of the sound of a bell, making it sound even more mysterious. The player said that from that day on, he packed his bags and left the temple.
“Ugh… I hate it so much.”
Let’s stop and find out. The more I listen, the more the priests at the entrance, smiling brightly and handing out bread to people, seem like monsters. I’ll go to those people in a moment and say, ‘I’m the criminal they’re looking for.’ I have to say that. You could become the main character in that dungeon.
The professor tried to ignore the bad thoughts creeping into his mind and approached one of the priests who was smiling brightly. You can’t stay away from the Gwangmyeong Church. One of the largest denominations in GG. Since sacred spells are essential for treating infectious agents, the church plays a significant role in the war against Mutes. If you fight Mute in any way, you will meet the members of the church several times, but it is much better to quickly sort things out now and meet them with a smile than to run away and meet them later with greater suspicion.
The priestess, who was holding the hands of each and every member of the church who were thrilled with a bright face, asked the professor who approached her with a smile as bright as the sun.
“Rathura lo-haram! May light be with you on your path today too. Brother, do you by any chance need the help of light?”
“Oh yeah. “I… I have committed a sin and would like to confess my sins in the name of Ro-Haram…” As
the professor spoke with an anxious expression, the priestess’s smile was even brighter than before, and she felt uneasy just by looking at him. He smiled and held the professor’s hand.
“You made a really good choice. Brother! You can hide from the world’s eyes, but there is no place that the light cannot reach, and Lo-Haram already knows your sins. All you have to do is confess your sins to Him and relieve the guilt that has built up in your heart.”
I could tell without even looking that this priestess was truly happy that the professor had decided to confess.
‘I can’t believe he’s such a good person. This woman probably didn’t cry when she was born, but was born smiling brightly!’
“You shouldn’t do this, you should go inside quickly, brother! “We will help you relieve the heavy burden in your heart as soon as possible.”
“Thank you.”
“Hehe, it’s my pleasure. Ratura lo-haram.”
“…Ratura lo-haram.”
The professor followed the priestess and walked inside the wide open church door, repeating the church’s sacred text.
***
Unlike the bustling outside of the church, the inside of the church was so quiet that you could even hear breathing, as if some kind of magical power had blocked the outside sounds. Thanks to the religious custom of sitting on small seats on the floor in accordance with the religious teaching that “light shines equally on everyone,” the only thing inside the building is a long path made of metal candlesticks with no chairs and a huge icon of Lo Haram standing at the end of it. It was just there.
Passing through the softly burning candles, the priestess guided the professor to a spot illuminated by light coming from a hole in the roof of the building in front of the statue of Lo Haram.
“Could you please kneel here and wait for a moment?”
“Are you doing this here?”
‘In an open place like this?’ In response to the professor’s question, which omitted the word, the priestess nodded and said.
“This is the hall of Ro-Haram. From the moment you come here, there are no lies. Oh, of course, you may be embarrassed by the eyes of the world, so I will close the door.”
Ting Ting –
When the priestess lifted the small metal bar in front of the statue and knocked on the metal cup next to it, two sturdy priests came out of the darkness from where they had been hiding, stuck to both sides of the huge door, and began to exert their strength.
Coo coo coo
coo coo!
As the door closed, the surroundings became so dark that it was hard to believe that this was a church building that worshiped the God of Light. There were only two types of light remaining inside the building: the faint light of candles that dimly illuminated the faces of the priests, and the light that leaked from the ceiling and illuminated the place where the professor was kneeling.
– Soy Sauce Gay Bar: Isn’t that unusual?
– Jokass: It’s so fucking suspicious?
– Heungan Mandu: Anyone can see that it’s a mess, right?
– takealook: Didn’t confession mean torturing and dissecting?
– Holly: Wow! Could it be that Anaya wants revenge on the professor who rejected her?
‘Don’t be unlucky! Damn it… the atmosphere is really strange, isn’t it?’
First of all, one thing is certain. The priestess who guided him here was not just an ordinary priest. As the priestess passed by the professor with her hands folded, wondering where the bright and polite young lady had gone just a moment ago, something like a subtle halo was shining.
‘The attitude of naturally manipulating members of the church and that divine power that flows out to a degree that is visible to the eye. As expected, this woman…..’
“God’s will is truly elaborate. “The world does not move and follow that will, but the world is already settled where that will comes.”
The priestess silently passed by the professor’s side and knelt down on a white cushion with an intricate pattern beneath the huge icon of Lo Haram. A seat that appears to anyone to be the top of the many seats here. And I am sitting and kneeling in front of him.
This is a position prepared from the beginning.
“Did you know… that I would come?”
“Rathura lo-haram. There is no place in the world where light does not shine. This morning, our Lord whispered to the saint, “The dagger is stuck in the bosom of the city, so beware of the darkness that has settled in.”
Sabak Sabak
Sabak Sabak Sabak –
Priests dressed in white gathered around the kneeling professor, one by one, kneeling. They knelt down and formed a circle around the professor and priestess facing each other.
“The will of the Lord undoubtedly refers to this place, Tobrun. The dagger embedded in the city’s bosom is a gigantic magic stone that is still embedded in the magic tower and emits an ominous light. “The darkness that has settled here is…”
The priestess facing the professor said with a bright white smile, just like the moment they first met.
“Don’t you mean you, a member of the warlock’s family who came to Tobrun on your own, and a spy for a monster imitating a human?”
“No, wait-”
“There’s no need to make excuses. As a servant of the church, there is no way I could not recognize the face of a member of the church. A face with a disfigured appearance. “You must be the escaped professor.”
Chuck, chuck, chuck –
With the sound of heavy footsteps, the white armored paladins gathered around the surrounding priests like a wall, and finally, a completely isolated space was completed within the quiet temple.
“Latura.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
As the people gathered in the temple chanted in unison, all the faintly flickering candles went out and everyone faded into darkness, leaving behind the professor illuminated by the light from the ceiling and the priestess emitting a soft halo.
“By the will of Ro-haram Almighty, a sinner has been placed in this place. From now on, we will begin the Inquisition under the authority of El Senadis, the gatherer of the light of Tobruun.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram.”
In front of the professor, who was sweating coldly in a suffocating atmosphere, El Senadis declared with a white smile that as of this moment, the professor’s power over life and death belonged to the church.

Anyone who plays GG has become entangled with the Light Church at least once.
As such, there are quite detailed strategies on how to deal with the Church of Gwangmyeong, and according to what Hyde remembered reading, the way to deal with the members of the Church was as follows.
======
1. Smiling brightly when I met you.
Basically, the people of the church are very good. They are anxious to help you, and no matter how you play, even if you play in a way that goes against the direction of the church (this refers to playing a typical criminal), the people of the church basically consider you an ally, and most players You will never see their frowning faces. Keep this in mind. These are a group of people who want to save the world. If they view you favorably, you can quickly become friends just by agreeing with them. Let’s memorize the religious text ‘Latura Lo Haram’. It roughly means the same thing as ‘the grace of Haram.’ Even if you only know this, people in the church will regard you as if you were their own brother who parted ways 10 years ago.
2. Smiling slightly ambiguously.
They still love you, but they need to take some steps to get to know you. You have a problem. Maybe you’re wanted for a serial killer, or you’re involved in the kidnapping of a noble family, or you’ve messed with a dragon’s treasure and a huge number of curses are following you around. Let’s actively use the right of repentance. Actively express how much you regret your sins and how much love you have for Ro Haram welling up from deep within your heart. They will embrace you, shed tears of joy, task you with repentance, or accept you as a member of the sect and actively protect you. Again, there are very few NPCs in GG that are as good as the Church of Light.
3. Snake eyes.
Fucked. You have become entangled in issues related to black magic, something you should never get entangled in. The moment the Gwangmyeong Church encounters a person with even the slightest hint of black magic, they turn from good religious people into crazy crusaders. You’ve never been involved in something like that? That’s your opinion. You may have been subject to the church’s strict standards without your knowledge. They made a deal with a warlock, became entangled with a creature created by a warlock, or did not see a group of unidentifiable black robes passing by just 1km away and did not report it to the church. Their hatred of black magic goes far beyond the boundaries of reason. So, if a member of the church has his eyes wide open in front of you and his hands and feet are shaking because he wants to break your bones at any moment, quit the game or run away to a country where the influence of the Gwangmyeong Church is low.

‘Hmm…’
The professor rolled his eyes and glanced at the priests surrounding him.
Mouth tightly closed in a straight line. Eyes slit to the side.
Paladins
twitching
their lips and stroking the mace attached to their waists suspiciously.
It was certain. All the church members gathered here were anxious because they could not kill the professor.
‘Damn it! What an oracle! Come down to the oracle and tell me what I did wrong so badly! I’m sure it’s not really a problem, right? They say it’s a trust. If you’re a real god, shouldn’t you know that I’d rather beat up Mute than take Mute’s side?’
Even Anaya couldn’t have predicted this situation. If there had been suspicion about the real Red Mute, the church would have blockaded the city as she said, and Inquisitors and other Inquisitors would have swarmed in and burned the city, looking for the Red Mute. There would be no doubt about the red mute. But apart from that, it seems like something I did offended the people of the Gwangmyeong Church in a very merciless way. When I see you longing for me with such confident eyes.
You have to stay alert. If you say a word wrong here, you may end up as a servant of the warlock, listening to the bell ringing until your brain turns to mush in the dungeon I mentioned earlier. But what if we defeat these guys here and escape?
‘At that moment, the church’s accomplishments were confirmed.’
The bounty will increase by more than 100 times, and ‘the escaped professor is a warlock’s Prakchi.’ A woman washing clothes in the stream or a farmer singing for the joy of harvest will turn into a berserker and go crazy at the sight of the two letters of the name professor. Of course, you won’t be able to intervene in the defense of Rodrik or any other country. The only way to get through this crisis is to somehow persuade the denomination.
Glancing –
The professor looked around once again. The priests were glaring at the professor so much that if they could kill with their eyes, they would have burned him to death a long time ago, and the paladins were twitching their fingers as if they couldn’t bear it because it was uncomfortable to have them hanging on my shoulders. These are excluded. We were no longer able to communicate.
Instead, I decided to focus on the woman in front of me named El Senadis.
– professor: You said he was the one who gathers light. He must be the highest-ranking person out of all of them, right?
– Muqaba: Correct. He is said to be the one who gathers the light of Tobrun, so he is a level priest who manages Tobrun. You could look at it at the bishop level.
– Holly: Um… how high is the bishop?
– Speed Wagon: The order is the Pope, Cardinal, Archbishop, Bishop, Auxiliary Bishop, Abbot, Priest and believers. He is a high-ranking priest who is the head of a diocese and has command over most of the Holy Knights except the Inquisitor and the Holy Knight Commander. He is a very tall person.
Not only is her status high, but this woman is still smiling. Knowing that I was a professor from the beginning, I hid my emotions and brought them inside, which means that at least I did not lose my mind and turn into a fanatic like other priests as soon as I heard that I was an enemy of the church. Well, for a group this large, it needs at least one person who can judge the political situation to make it work.
The point is that at least this priest named El Senadis is capable of conversation. If I can’t convince that woman, I won’t even be able to dream of living a sunny life in this seed.
‘Shall we go out strong? ….no. To them, there is no being higher than the God of Light. Now they are passing judgment as representatives of God. If you make a fuss here, you might end up blowing off your head for shame. Here, you have to be as humble as possible and do as they say and act like a criminal.’
After quickly assessing the situation and deciding on a response plan, the professor knelt down on the floor and spoke in a very frightened voice.
“Oh there seems to be a misunderstanding! Joe Inquisition, I am an enemy of the Church! Absolutely not! “I just want to confess my sin of escaping from the prison of the Tobrun Guard…” As
the professor opened his mouth, the eyes of the priests around him who were glaring at him as if they were going to tear him to death became even harsher.
“How dare a heretic open his mouth in the halls of Ro-haram…”
“I am the hands and feet of Ro-haram, and the anger boiling in my heart is the will of Ro-haram….”
“I will pull out all my teeth and cut my tongue. ” Cut it into five pieces and put it in boiling water….”
‘Fuck! One word of a word is such a damn thing!’
It’s a trial! You say you’re going to make a case, but what kind of trial is that if you’re already deciding how to kill someone based on what you said briefly?
“stop.”
As the wide-eyed priests slowly narrowed the circle, the priestess kneeling across from them stopped them.
“Ro-Haram is watching us. “Please don’t act rashly.”
“Umm….Ratura lo-haram.”
“Ratura lo-haram”
she said, assailing the priests with just one word. She placed her clasped hands on her forehead and spoke in a pious voice.
“Rathura lo-haram. All beings cannot escape Ro Haram’s gaze at every moment of birth and death. For no one who breathes and speaks can tell a lie before him.”
Huuuuung –
As soon as the short prayer ended, the professor felt a strange pressure settle around him. Feeling like something sticky is stuck to your tongue and throat.
‘Divine spell! This is… a confession order?’
Lady Bishop El Senadis spoke with a bright smile as if she had read the professor’s thoughts.
“Now, I am going to tell you the unvarnished truth. “Now you can say whatever you want. Please talk about your religious enemies as much as possible until the last moment.”
The professor saw a hint of life in the female bishop’s bright smile. It didn’t seem like it would be easy to persuade her.
