Episode 722 The Day of Prophecy (9)
The temple of the satellite bridge built in the Greyman Capital is not yet finished.
Many workers are working together, but the only thing that can be used right now is the cabinet.
Priests and priests were not allowed to bring slaves inside because it was originally a rule not to allow unauthorized persons to enter.
They rented an entire nearby tavern and discussed future work.
“What will happen in the future?”
“Isn’t it originally the role of the Seongguk to divination saints?”
“If things go wrong, there could be a holy war.”
At those words, the priests’ complexions turned pale.
Although they received an oracle from the goddess Gaia, there is no way to prove it.
I didn’t know if I would have to prepare for an all-out war with the Seongguk if I arbitrarily occupied the saint.
Although the body of the satellite bridge has grown considerably, it is still not at the level of comparison with the Holy Kingdom, so they shrank considerably.
The fat priest who was eating the food said with a smile haha.
“What are you so worried about? we have been entrusted with And Seongguk did not receive that trust. What does that mean?”
The eyes of the crowd gathered on him.
The priest who mumbled the food in his mouth continued.
“Gaia chose us, not the Holy Nation. There, the sky of the satellite bridge seen there is in good health, so why worry so much?”
At those words, the faces of the other priests and priests softened a little.
“Surely…”
“That’s right. I am ashamed of myself for being so nervous all this time.”
“That’s right. Isn’t the God who descended to earth watching over us? All we have to do is move according to His will.”
“yes.”
A few doctrines of satellite religions.
Do not doubt the power of God.
They chanted a short prayer.
“Then the next problem remains.”
“problem?”
“So this person… Umm. Shouldn’t you be serving her as a saint?”
At the priest’s words, this time the eyes of the audience focused on the courtesy slave woman.
As much as the exterior, there is a lot of sacredness.
Even though it was messy, the golden hair and red lips that boasted a brilliant presence contrasted with the white skin, making it look even more bewitching.
However, seeing her greedily eating food with her mouth full of seasoning, it seemed like she would commit disrespect by doubting Gaia’s eyes.
“It’s not possible to miss the long-awaited oracle. It’s a matter of teaching manners.”
“…umm.”
Seeing him washing the dishes with his nose in the plate, I am worried about how much he can change just by teaching manners.
Moreover, it was not only the etiquette that was the problem, but also her birth itself.
The most humble of all slaves.
The woman in front of me is a position that can only be sold to a perverted aristocrat who tortures her.
Could such a woman really be worshiped as a saint?
The thoughts did not leave everyone’s mind.
Then the slave woman spoke out.
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…!”
It looks like he wants to convey something.
“Do you need something?”
“Euuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…”
The voice doesn’t come out well, but only moaning.
As the priest looked around, the priests shook their heads.
The etiquette is messed up too. Status is slave.
Plus, you’re dumb.
I began to seriously doubt what the Goddess Gaia was thinking when she gave the oracle.
“First of all, etiquette… and receiving divine power is the most urgent priority.”
“yes. But the temple is not yet complete. You should ask the elder about his intentions today.”
“All right. What should I do?”
“Today, we will decide the number of people to stay at the inn, and when permission is given, we will move to the cabinet.”
“yes.”
The old priest looked at the woman.
Somehow innocent and poisonous eyes.
To be called a saint, the dullness of her eyes bothered me.
he prayed in a low voice.
“May our days be blessed.”
* * *
Pajijijik-!
once.
twice.
Every time I lost consciousness, a terrifying jolt ran down my spine and opened my eyes.
“Quaaaaagh!”
“Aaaagh!”
The hall was filled with the screams of fifty-five, fifty-nine seventy-three and ninety-one.
“They have guts.”
Ray put his hand on Fifty-five’s head.
He pours his own mana along his mana rod and manifests magic in that state.
“Lightning.”
Paji Jiji-!
It was only a low-circle attack magic, but the shock when it manifested inside the body was considerable.
Fifty-five trembled at the direct impact of climbing the mana road.
The extreme pain that even my voice couldn’t come out properly.
Soon, his body slumps and he loses consciousness.
At that time, Ray woke him up in a strange way.
“Awake.”
The mind returns to a short starter word, and hell repeats itself.
Fifty-five was drooling and laughing, as if he had gone mad from the rigorous interrogation.
“…Keukkeuk. What is your purpose?”
“That’s what I want to ask. Come five. I’m getting tired of it, so open your mouth.”
Fifty-five slapped it slowly.
“Now I… exist strong enough… that you, the strong man, have to use your own hands…”
“Crazy.”
Paji Jiji-!
Fifty-five lost consciousness again.
It is admirable that my body and mind are holding up even though I am being tortured so severely as to what kind of training I have been undergoing.
Unlike Fifty-five, who now enjoys interrogation, Seventy-three was having seizures due to severe fear.
Ray gave up fifty-five and went to seventy-three.
There was no thought of showing mercy from the beginning.
These guys have been living by killing others recklessly.
There was no room for improvement, and even if it was rehabilitated, it was too dangerous to release it into a private house.
When he put his hand on his head, seventy-three hit his teeth.
“Save me… Save me…”
“I’m sorry, but I can’t help you.”
“Aww…”
My body, which had been overpowered by the shock, trembled.
At that, Ray shook his head.
“You’ve been ignoring other people when they’ve begged for their lives.”
Then fifty-nine beside him shouted.
“I saved my life! Really!”
“dog sound. If the priest had shouted for help, would he have saved it? Are you asking me to believe that now?”
He is the one who has a deeper relationship with Heukbang than anyone else.
He knew all about their cruelty and cunning.
If you show mercy, you harbor venom, and if you want to embrace, you insert a knife.
It was all bullshit that those who had lived fiercely and viciously for decades could be rehabilitated overnight.
“It’s impossible to keep him alive, but I’ll kill you as painlessly as possible. Promise.” Let’s say
“Turn off…” and
shoot the electricity.
Foam flowed from Seventy-three’s mouth.
Seventy-three, who could no longer overcome the intense pain, finally opened their mouths.
“Number number… that’s… our names…”
Ray immediately stopped mana.
“name?”
“Keok… a hundred pears… heo ok… there are people like that…”
Seventy-three spoke slowly while catching his breath.
About the existence that Heukbang spent decades raising.
The fact that they are infiltrating all over the world.
And even about its structure.
The moment Ray learned the new information, the back of his neck felt chilly.
‘There are a hundred of these guys?’
They were just opponents who were easy for them, but in fact, they were capable enough to easily steam and eat a fair amount of kingdom knights.
Even though the so-called Ttubeok must have suppressed mana, the work of overcoming it and raising the sword aura, and the mental strength of not yielding to harsh interrogations are incomparable to any other group.
Imagine that these people will grow bigger in the next ten years.
The Master, who is called the human limit, will lose his life to only one or two of them, and the heads of each country will have to spend the night trembling in fear every day.
Even if there were only fifty-five and fifty-nine right now, it was hard to imagine how strong the previous numbers would be, even if they were stronger than them.
when you are deep in thought.
Seventy-three crawled on the floor and said.
“Heo-eok… All I know is… This is the end… So…” A
desperate gaze without focus.
The glistening eyes of living as before were no longer there.
Ray nodded slightly at the words of seventy-three.
“huh. okay.”
“One… I have a request.”
“What? It’s the last way, so I’ll listen to you when you’re ready.”
Seventy-three opened his dry lips.
“Last time… I want to see a new scenery…”
He picked up his beloved sword that was randomly rolling on the ground and handed it to him
.
Judging by the jaundice in his eyes, it seems that he is not far away.
Ray silently looked at seventy-three.
On the subject of hurting others and living a dirty life.
Are you saying you want to finish yourselves cleanly as a prosecutor?
How can people be so selfish?
Ray, who tried to refuse his request with a single knife, eventually had no choice but to accept the sword he handed him.
How can a human being be so weak?
While holding the sword bottle, I gently pulled it out, revealing a blood-stained sword body.
An ugly sword that resembles its owner.
The days that the scent of blood was not erased were buried there.
Ray completely drew his sword.
Sreureung-!
The sword, which looked cheap even at first glance, trembled as if it had intuited the fate of its master.
“Then…”
“….”
As the sword was drawn, the seventy-three looked at themselves with all their might, perhaps not wanting to miss a single moment.
After a moment of silence, Ray moved his hand.
The hand holding the sword was bent diagonally, drawing a graceful curve.
There was no flashy fluff or heavy spirit in it.
A light yet simple sword, like a child playing with a sword.
The end of it was toward the seventy-three Mokwooldae.
The moment I thought the sword touched my skin.
Seventy-three eyes were already comfortably closed.
Fifty-nine shuddered at the sight of seventy-three, who died gracefully without a single wound.
It was so close to divine that it was hard to believe even after seeing it with my own two eyes.
Thousands of people even in the black room with the talent of
‘monstrous monster…’ .
How many died before another hundred were culled from among them.
In the meantime, he had been proud of his ability to be the strongest in any kingdom, but he thought it was all like frogs in a well.
Out of the sky.
He finally realized that there is a sky above the sky.
