Episode 269 The Holy Body (2)
The body of a saintess is called the ‘Holy Body’, which is often used to mean ‘white bread and white wine’.
Therefore, the priests of Rune used to eat white bread and white wine every weekend.
It was a custom derived from the myth that a long time ago, the prophet Lun made white bread with his flesh and white wine with his blood and distributed it to his followers.
And those who copied or cleverly twisted the doctrines of the Church of Rune also had a similar culture.
For example, the ‘New World Church’, ‘Ohm Church’, ‘Manson Church’, etc., which are rapidly increasing in numbers throughout the empire.
They copied and used the old doctrines of Rune almost as they were, but inserted their own interpretations into the empty parts in the middle of the doctrines, resulting in a completely new religion.
And the highest ranking priests, including ‘Elmani’, ‘Om’, and ‘Charles’, who are the heads of these large heretical pseudo-religions, are now gathered in one place.
Quo Vadis, with few people on the outskirts of the ecliptic, was in front of a temple of the New Testament sect.
A lot of people gathered together and started talking.
“Oops. It’s been a while, priest. Has your face improved a lot?”
“What is it? This time, a merchant’s guild donated all of their property, and their housekeeping has improved a bit.”
“Kya. As expected, you are exceptionally resourceful. How did you get the donation?” “Is there anything wrong? The daughter of the guild leader over there has been sick for several years, and he gently coaxed me into treating me
, so I skipped it all. It hurts, well, it only takes a few doses of narcotic painkillers.”
I’m afraid it isn’t.”
“Isn’t it because you brought in a new concubine this time?”
“Uh heh heh- that’s right. Originally, I had a separate husband, but he gently seduced me with doctrine and made me fall in love with him.”
“You’ve done well. Wouldn’t you be a true god if you gave up all your possessions as well as your body and soul for us?”
“That’s right. Otherwise, salvation is impossible~”
The heretical and pseudo-priests had different religious principles and principles, but they had one thing in common.
It was to eat the backs of the tired and struggling people and call their flesh.
at that time.
The crowd split left and right, and three figures walked out from different directions.
They were ‘Elmani’, ‘Om’ and ‘Charles’, the leaders of heretical pseudo-religions.
Elmani, who was old but still radiated greedy light from her eyes, opened her mouth.
“…By the way. The fact that the New Testament sect of Quo Vadis sent us an invitation to the dinner must mean that we finally recognize our ‘New World Church’ as an official tribe, right?”
Then said ‘Om’, a man so fat that he almost looked like a ball.
“That’s right. Holy Communion is the act of sharing the flesh and blood of a saint. Being invited here must mean that you want to officially form an alliance with our church.”
‘Charles’, who has a skinny body and wide eyes, also nodded.
“That’s right. The reason why we asked for a secret gathering like this today is to keep the OT faction in check! Knowing that we’ve supported the OT group with funds for a long time, they also want to get something to eat from now on.”
The leaders of cults and pseudo-cities gathered here each call themselves the pope.
They received an invitation to a dinner that Quo Vadis secretly delivered in the name of the New Testament sect a while ago and gathered here for their own reasons.
Having already built a strong relationship with the Old Testament faction, they are now planning to join the New Testament faction as well.
“Currently, as the Old Testament faction and the New Testament faction are in fierce conflict within Quo Vadis, if we provide military funding to both of them, whoever wins will not be able to survive.”
“That’s right. Clever rabbits dig many burrows. We only have to reap the benefits of whoever comes out victorious in the end. Maybe it’s better for us to fight against each other forever without a win or a loss.”
“In order to do that, we must keep our gathering here a complete secret from the outside world. So that it does not fall into the ears of the Old Testament sect. Everyone must have kept the secret well, right?”
Heretics and cults with influence from all over the empire gathered here.
The leaders of each religion brought only the core high-ranking officials who could really be trusted.
“How fortunate it is that the New Testamentists have come to their senses and reached out to us.”
“They don’t know. They can’t beat the OTs without our funding.”
“Hahaha- New Testament bastards. Every time they pretend to be virtuous and clean, they pretend to be all alone.”
They came secretly under cover of night and hurriedly entered the temple.
……No, I tried to enter.
Kwak!
Even if it wasn’t for the explosion I heard out of nowhere.
Rumble! Woojijijik!
Debris from collapsed buildings and roadside trees attacked carriages and people.
Screams began to emanate from all over the place.
“What is it!?”
Heretics and cults surround the area in a circle and are perplexed at the collapsed soil and debris.
And a sound of footsteps was heard in the thick dust.
Ttogak- Ttogak- Ttogak-
Black tights Kill heels over 30 cm tall.
Ms. Ouroboros.
She appeared here out of nowhere!
“Hohoho- what is it? Why is there so much garbage?”
Looking around at the priests, she shrugged once.
“I’ve been here since I heard that the night hounds have appeared. They’re all stinky garbage, right?”
Then the priests shouted in anger.
“You’re a cheeky criminal bitch! What are you doing! Kill!”
Before long, soldiers armed with spears and shields charged at Miss Ouroboros.
however.
Shriririk- Kirik-
The whip coiled around like a snake cut the arms, legs and torso of the soldiers as if they were slicing zucchini.
A terrifying aura flies in, drawing a trajectory of purple and black.
Jab- Puck! Kwak!
Every time the whip, which sprouted thorns like rose vines, hit the hard bedrock, a slight earthquake occurred.
As the paladins, armed with heavy armor, died as if they were being crushed, the faces of the heretical cult leaders turned pale.
“No way! What kind of monster!?”
“Haik! What are the Imperial Guards doing!”
“Save me! I’m a person who shouldn’t die in a place like this!”
Elmani Om Charles hurriedly tried to run away, but it was impossible.
Because Miss Ouroboros had already lightly landed in front of them.
she asked in a laughing tone.
“What are you? The Pope?”
Then all three nodded.
“I am the Pope of the New World Church! Do you think you can escape the punishment even if you do this to me!”
“I am the leader of the Ohm Church. There are hundreds of thousands of followers who will mourn if I am in an accident.”
“I am the god of Mansonism. Whoever tries to harm me will surely suffer harm.”
Elmani Om Charles said in a firm tone.
OK.
Damn! match! Fuck!
Miss Ouroboros drew her whip into the air.
Eventually, several of the trees that had been uprooted and fell were transformed by the aura and became a tree with numerous branches.
“……?”
Elmani Om Charles tilted his head.
OK. Miss Ouroboros said with a coquettish laugh.
“If you’re the pope or a god, show me the proof and I’ll let you live.”
at the same time.
Whirly Rick –
Miss Ouroboros’ whip wrapped around Charles, who was in the front.
“Huh?”
Charles, who was standing in a daze, was dragged to a huge tree in front of him in an instant.
yet.
Pupper puffer puck!
Miss Ouroboros drew a dagger from her waistband and threw it through both shoulders and thighs, nailing it to a tree.
“Quaaaaaaaagh!?”
Charles struggled madly and screamed, but his body was already firmly nailed to the tree.
Miss Ouroboros said with a smile.
“Now I’ll crown you with laurels.”
A whip with poisonous thorns wrapped around Charles’ head, which was flapping violently from side to side.
“Aww! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!”
Charles struggled furiously, spurting blood all over his body, and soon fell limp.
He died of shock due to excessive blood loss.
Next to him, Elmani and Ohm were urinating in a ball.
Miss Ouroboros opened her mouth brightly.
“Yes~ Participant #1. Resurrection~ failed! Then, it’s the turn of Participant #2.”
Miss Ouroboros walked in front of the trembling Ohm.
and.
Fuck! Pop!
He lifted the heel of his high heel and stamped his toe, shattering it into pieces.
“Kkeiuiik! Kahak!?”
Ohm struggled, but Miss Ouroboros’ kicking didn’t stop.
Starting from the toes, the top of the foot, the ankle, the shin, the knee, the thigh…
Eventually, Ohm’s lower body was completely crushed into a rag.
Miss Ouroboros said with a smile.
“The next challenge is ‘fixing a crippled man’! Come on, stand up on your own two legs. Then I’ll save you.”
But Ohm didn’t wake up.
but.
“Please save me! I’m not a god! I’m not even a priest! Just a pseudo! No, it’s heresy at all!”
They just beg for their lives, spewing out the truth that may be the first in their lives.
“Nonsense! The pope passed away…”
“How could our savior look like that to a mere mob…” ”
This is a fraud! He knows how to pee, but he has no divine power at all. human!”
All the priests and followers who have obeyed the authority of their leaders so far scream in dismay.
Meanwhile, Elmani, the leader of the largest pseudo-church, was glaring at Miss Ouroboros with a hard expression.
“I am not afraid of you! I will never yield! Because I am a god who has returned to this world!”
“Oh, yes?”
Miss Ouroboros laughed, covering her mouth with her hand.
After a while, she seemed interested and asked Elmani.
“If you really are a god, you wouldn’t mind being touched by holy water, right?”
“What? Of course…”
But Elmani couldn’t answer.
It was because as soon as he opened his mouth, Miss Ouroboros took out a bottle from her bosom and sprayed the liquid on Elmani’s face.
“Come on. Holy water.”
Miss Ouroboros smiled brightly.
At the same time, a terrifying sound began to emanate from Elmani’s face.
Washishishishishik-
The flesh melts and the blisters boil. The terrible smell of burning flesh began to sting my nostrils.
“Quaaaaaaagh!”
Elmani struggled, covering her face with both hands.
However, the holy water not only melted the flesh and pierced countless holes in the bones, but also burned the things inside.
“Oops? Did you accidentally pour in hydrochloric acid instead of holy water?”
Miss Ouroboros winked and punched herself in the head with her fist.
Seeing Elmani dying in terrible agony, the faces of the other religious leaders turned white.
“I am not the Second Coming of Rune!”
“Help me! I just like people holding me up…!”
“Aww! I just created a religion because I can have adultery with married men and married women!
” I just made a business car! Let’s make some money!”
Confessions of shock from the religious leaders continued. And the shock of the believers as well.
Clinking- Loud shout- Explosion-
The sound of faith being broken and collapsed was heard loudly from everywhere.
* * *
“…… Mmm. Things are going a little differently than planned?”
On the roof of the New Testament temple,
Bikir in Night Hound mode looked down at the ghastly scene below with Dolores.
Bikir’s original plan was to kill the leaders of cults and cults. It was to gather them in one place and annihilate them.
In fact, this was originally Sinclair’s plan.
In the past , Sinclair
was given the following mission in the second game of the University League.
is groaning from the growing harms of heresy and pseudoscience.At
this time, from the standpoint of the Quo Vadis Inquisition, suggest a way to eradicate heresy and pseudoscience and raise the status of the Church of Rune. At that time,
Sinclair came up with a somewhat radical answer , This was it. This was
the plan Sinclair would inform Dolores after a long time.
I already knew it through my memories before returning
to avoid it. otherwise you can’t catch it However, since we can’t deal with all the weed seeds that are scattered everywhere, the only solution is to gather them in one place and set them on fire.” They only use the hearts of the poor and weary to extort wealth
, do evil to children, and covet other people’s husbands or wives
.
If
the young madam spits out threads in the shape of the letters written on the documents in Luther’s office, hardens them, and takes them off, she can steal the contents of the documents as well as the handwriting. Meanwhile, “Isn’t that too
extreme
? ”
Dolores was trembling slightly.
But that’s what the ‘Steel Saint’ Dolores plans to do in just a few decades.
Therefore, Vikir replied without much emotion.
“Look at what the dying cults are spewing out.
” Dolores’s eyes widened at the word.
“Fuck!
The blood spewed out by dying people. The color of that blood was black. All the
high-ranking officials and ardent followers here had made a contract with the devil.
She herself had done it .” Whether they knew it or not
.
Vikir looked at the number of people dying from Miss Ouroboros and thought,
to be honest, she wasn’t sure that Miss Ouroboros would
appear
here . 2.
Ouroboros
has a hostile relationship with the devil’s minions (cause unknown)
Miss Ouroboros has always followed wherever the night hound has appeared
so far . She planned to become an imitator of Miss Ouroboros,
‘Because dressing up as a woman and whipping to a certain level is not that difficult.’
But Miss Ouroboros really came and made things quicker.
Just in time.
“This way! I hear screams!”
“All troops charge!”
“This time we’re going to catch him!” I heard the sound
of the imperial guards rushing in after receiving the report.
I came after receiving a report that a night hound had appeared, but I was just wasting my time.”
Miss Ouroboros shook her head as if she had lost consciousness.
“Night Hound… are you going to use me this way? ? Ho-ho-ho, you seem like a cunning and charming person. It gets better and better, doesn’t it?”
Eventually, Miss Ouroboros kicked off her seat, jumped into the air, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Only
thick dust and darkness swallowed everything
. I went into the scene and caught this one that was still alive. It was
Ohm,
the leader of the Ohm religion
.
Because of this, Vikir had to mobilize Dekaravia’s ability.
He was stunned by the red eyes emanating from the one eye in the center of the reverse pentagram, and he vomited everything he knew before he died
. Under the floor…… triple hidden…… funds line… top-secret document…”
Miss Ouroboros left and just before the imperial guards arrived.
Bikir moved urgently.
“Quickly. Ledger!”
Then Dolores, who had been searching the wagon first at Bikir’s gesture, exclaimed equally urgently.
“Here! I found it! Under the floor!”
Bikir and Dolores put the ledgers in their bosoms and
ran through the dust.
Vikir thought.
All that was left was the head. It was a real black coat.
Bikir, carrying Dolores on his back, gliding through the air on Madame Cub’s thread, peering into the ledger.
The answer Vikir was looking for.
It only took a few seconds to skim through the ledger. It was obvious just by looking at it.
A name that occupied an overwhelmingly large portion of the numerous transaction targets.
A source of funds for the Old Testament faction, a being that used cults and pseudos as a money laundering network.
And the place where the sixth Tensingshi is currently hiding.
