Player Returns After 10,000 Years Episode 413
Gwangmyeong Bridge (1)
The picnic in Caldesan came to an end as it was due to the appearance of Kargas.
Everyone looked sad, but they understood that the picnic couldn’t continue in this situation.
The party members packed their belongings, promising a later date
.
Kang-woo returned to the imperial castle with several prohibitions against Kargas who had subdued him so that he would not do anything stupid.
Normally, he would have solved the problem by killing him cleanly, but he couldn’t kill Echidna’s father in front of her eyes.
…rainfall.
When I was unpacking my things back at the imperial castle, Echidna approached me after carefully opening the door and entering.
Without saying a word, she hugged Kang-woo’s body.
He looked somewhat cautious, like when he first met her.
.
Kang Woo lightly stroked Echidna’s hair.
Echidna hugged him for a while before asking in a cautious voice.
I hate being alone now. Kang Woo laughed.
I’ll make sure you don’t go anywhere in the future even if you say you don’t like it.
…Hi-Hi.
Echidna buried her face in Kang Woo’s arms and smiled lightly.
I’m sorry I ruined the picnic.
Well, you can go again later when you have time.
What can a picnic be like? Even if it’s hard right now, if things are sorted out later, you’ll be able to get tired of it.
huh?
Echidna nodded with a brighter voice.
It looked very cute.
Kangwoo Is it okay if I sleep with Kangwoo today?
Echidna carefully asked Kangwoo while holding onto his collar.
Um… Wait a minute.
Since I sleep with Seol-ah Han every night these days, I had to ask her too.
When Kang Woo tries to contact Seol Ah.
would it be okay?
Seolah Han entered the room and smiled broadly as if she had been listening to the two of them.
I also want to sleep with Echidna after a long time.
Seolah Han lightly hugged Echidna and placed her chin on top of her head.
Echidna turned around and asked in a voice filled with anticipation. Are you sleeping together too? huh. I will. Han Seol-ah smiled brightly and stroked Echidna’s hair.
Hehe! Hehe! good! Let’s sleep together!
Echidna snorted excitedly and jumped into bed.
Kang Woo and Seol Ah looked at each other and laughed lightly. Hehe! Sleep late today!
Standing between Seolah Han and Kangwoo, Echidna shouted with her eyes shining brightly.
But the excitement was short-lived.
Less than 10 minutes later, I fell asleep with the sound of my breathing.
Kang Woo smiled and laid down next to him, closing his eyes.
It was a short vacation, but
somehow I think it will remain in my memory for a long time.
Then, I will report on my research on Gwangmyeong Bridge.
A few days have passed since the vacation ended.
Lilith entered Kang-woo’s room with several documents in her hands.
Kangwoo accepted the document and nodded slightly.
First of all, it is the current power of Gwangmyeonggyo.
Lilith pointed to a section of the document.
A map of what seemed to be the Erno continent was drawn, and the power of the Kwang Myeong-gyo was marked in yellow fluorescent color.
Centered on the Arnan Empire, power is spreading rapidly day by day.
Other than that, it doesn’t seem to have spread much outside of the Arnan Empire yet.
It’s a religion that was created less than a month ago.
Oh yes.
Kang Woo nodded as if he had forgotten.
Clearly, the power of Gwangmyeonggyo is growing at a terrifying rate.
Considering the miraculous feat Kang Woo showed in the last war and the usual popularity of Kim Si-hoon, it was a natural result.
However, even so, it was difficult for one Kwangmyeonggyo to swallow all other religions on the Erno continent, where the basic polytheistic culture was already established.
‘Is it the same as when Christianity did not spread widely in Japan in the past?’
Faith is a complex matter.
Humans, by default, do not like change.
In particular, it was even more severe in relation to religion, and
it took a long time for those who had already had a religion to be naturalized to another religion.
Considering that, that’s a lot of speed.
In fact, the power of Kwangmyeonggyo
is growing with tremendous momentum enough to be called an epidemic.
Kang Woo narrowly opened his eyes.
After hearing what Lilith said, looking at the documents again, something strange caught my eye.
Isn’t this spreading too fast
?
Quite the opposite question from the one before.
However, after recalling the situation on the Ernor Continent, looking at the map again, he could not erase the feeling that the power of the Church had spread too quickly.
yes you are right
Lilith nodded in agreement.
It happened when the existing religion was incorporated under Kangwoo.
transferred under me?
yes. The remnants of the New Association entered Gwangmyeonggyo in large numbers, declaring that they had received a revelation to follow the god of brilliance.
Kang Woo stroked his chin and fell into thought.
‘The gods gave a revelation to follow me
?’
Continuing his thoughts, Kang-woo shook his head. It makes no sense.
The gods must have received a considerable penalty as the incarnations died in large numbers this time.
Among them, there will be gods whose deity itself has been extinguished. ‘In that situation, you’re handing over your base forces to another god?’
Deciding to sacrifice for the future of the Erno continent is an overly optimistic idea.
For gods born with divine powers, such as Gaia and Tyrion, followers were the only window through which they could influence the material world.
To put it simply, it’s like a limb.
‘Cut off his limbs and give them to other gods.’
It was dog noise. Kang Woo let out a laugh. I pictured the situation roughly in my head. These bastards said that this was a new meeting, and then they lost their lives as a group.
As the incarnations died at the hands of Taemu-geuk, the gods embraced the penalty intact.
A religion that worshiped a god with a low deity probably lost most of the blessings and powers it had received from the gods. From the church’s point of view, it would have had no choice but to find a way to live as the leadership, which became the base force, died in the war in a situation where authority was weakening with the appearance of Si-Hun Kim.
‘Is that why I chose Gwangmyeonggyo?’
It’s a very wise choice to curse at them because they’re like bats.
If I had been in a similar situation, I would have made the same choice.
yes. Because of that, it seems that there are some problems with the Gwangmyeong Bridge itself.
what a natural thing
Kang Woo nodded his head as if he was roughly drawing a picture.
The remaining forces of the New Association were incorporated into Kwangmyeonggyo.
No, it is difficult to say simply with the simple expression of ‘incorporated’.
They must be eating Gwangmyeong Bridge.
Ho ho you are correct.
Kangwoo crossed his arms and shook his legs.
The reason why the remnants of the New Association are devouring Gwangmyeong Bridge.
Without thinking about it, it was because of the problem of Gwangmyeonggyo itself.
I should have made an apostle or an incarnation.
There are no apostles or incarnations of the God of Gwanghui, the god worshiped by the followers of Gwangmyeonggyo.
There are also no believers who were indirectly empowered by Kang Woo.
In the first place, there was no way that there was a religion that was voluntarily created by continental people who held up the reputation of Kang Woo and Kim Si-hoon.
To put it simply,
there is no managerial position at Gwangmyeonggyo that Kangwoo’s breath touches.
From the perspective of the new association, is there any other prey that is as delicious as the Kwangmyeong Bridge?
You guys got some heads up.
Kang Woo let out a laugh.
If you were a member of the New Association, you would have experience in running a religion, so it would
n’t have been a task to roast and boil the continental people gathered with pure faith in the god of brilliance.
‘Well, in the past, I don’t know if they ate Gwangmyeong Bridge by boiling or boiling it.’
Things have changed.
The pure faith sent by the followers of Gwangmyeonggyo comes back as a clear ‘power’ to him.
There was a reason to increase the power of Gwangmyeonggyo.
Of course, even if left alone, the power of Gwangmyeonggyo will grow on its own.
For the remaining forces of the New Association, the greater the power of the Gwangmyeong Church, the greater the benefits.
but.
The biggest problem remains.
‘Actually, those bastards probably don’t have any faith in me.’
The remnants of the New Association are just clinging to the Gwangmyeong Bridge like hyenas to regain the power of the destroyed church.
You can’t have faith in yourself.
It is an ironic situation that the leadership of Gwangmyeonggyo does not believe in the god of brilliance. Shall I throw it away?
Lilith asked with a calm expression.
Kang Woo shook his head.
No, it’s better to have experienced people in management than to put a bunch of goofballs in management.
But don’t they really believe in Kang Woo?
Lilith tilted her head as if wondering.
Kang-woo twisted the corner of his mouth and raised his body.
then.
The solution was simple.
gotta make you believe
It was time for a sermon.
red sky.
A boy was walking on the dry land.
He was a boy with some kind of blank eyes.
did you come A black shimmer appeared in the air, and an unpleasant voice resounded like scraping metal.
A demon with a hunchbacked back walked out, holding a cane.
huh.
The boy with blank eyes nodded slightly.
Looking back at the hunchbacked devil, the boy opened his mouth.
How’s the World Tree going?
It’s going according to plan. A little more and the results will come. The hunchbacked devil responded by tapping his old staff.
The boy nodded.
Oh, there’s something new that’s interesting this time. did you hear
Are you talking about Gwangmyeonggyo? huh.
The boy smiled lightly and nodded.
What would you like?
well what to do
The boy raised his head and looked up at the red sky, thinking for a moment.
Then he said in a low voice.
Mmm. Tired of thinking yes. Then I’ll put my hand on it.
The hunchbacked devil bowed deeply.
He smiled and opened his mouth.
How did you feel seeing the Demon King in person after a long time?
….
The boy was silent at the question of the hunchbacked devil.
and slowly. The corners of the mouth went up. Past the cheeks and cheekbones to the temples. The corners of his mouth parted bizarrely.
Ki-Hit!
Madness lingered in his blank eyes.
A terrifyingly huge demonic energy erupted from the boy’s body.
Woo-woo-woo-deuk!
A goat’s horn sprouted from the boy’s forehead.
The bat’s wings spread through his back.
ha.
He let out a breath filled with delight.
The boy stuck out his long snake-like tongue and licked his fingers.
Demon King.
I remembered the flame of gluttony that burned with a brilliant light. It looked very, very… delicious.
muttered in a maddening voice.
Dragging.
The hunchbacked demon nodded.
Thank you, Baal.”
