Chapter 325 Reality Inside Illusion (3)
Holy Empire Saint.
Arcadia has the level of the strongest in the world, but it is a country that is close to a typical strong person who does not show any special movement and is always in seclusion.
However, strange movements were being made inside the Holy See due to the recent colossal upheaval in Arcadia.
“I will report on the special situation between the continents under the Holy Father.”
Pope Amen who rules the Empire of Saint.
Although he has the appearance of an old man exuding a profound aura, he looked down at the holy knight Egudiel, who was bowing his head to him, and nodded slightly with a benevolent yet sharp look in his eyes.
“The resurrection of the World Tree and the existence of other continents united by it have been confirmed with certainty. And… as the saintess said, we have confirmed the existence of divine kingdoms like our saint empire.”
With the resurrection of the World Tree, Arcadia has been fully integrated into one.
However, several countries who were completely unaware of the existence of other continents were in great confusion about this fact and were doing their best to figure out information about each other, but the Holy Empire was different.
“I guess so. Wasn’t the resurrection of the world tree and the resulting unification of all continents predicted from a very long time ago? Of course, it happened too suddenly and not as we expected, but it’s not that strange.”
St. Empire’s Secret Records Room Ark (ARK).
Through numerous ancient documents and records that cannot be dated, the pope, the highest-ranking priests, and holy knights already knew the many hidden secrets of Arcadia that others did not know. That’s why, as soon as the continent was unified, they immediately dispatched envoys to all continents to check if there were people with the same faith as them.
Aside from the Holy Empire Saint, the Holy Kingdoms existed one by one on the other 7 continents.
Each of them was ruled by beings called ‘Saint Kings’, and surprisingly, they were operated in a system very similar to the Saint Empire.
“These are the correspondences of the brothers who were called ‘Holy Kings’ in the Holy Kingdoms. I was very happy to say that I had not been able to teach sincere faith to the believers because I had not received the teachings of the Holy Father and the Holy Lady, and I swore to obey the Pope.”
Egudiel’s report that the seven holy kingdoms swore allegiance to Saint Empire without any discord. At his story, Amen muttered to himself with a smile more satisfied than ever.
“How glad it is to know that our brothers and sisters have thoroughly kept their faith in firm faith even after such a long time has passed.”
Continents that have been separated for so long. However, Amen said that even now, that sincere faith has not faded in the slightest.
“We recognize the status of all divine kingdoms, including the Holy King, as they are now. In addition, we will continue to allow all rights and autonomy of each kingdom except for special reasons.”
The pope’s declaration that he will recognize the legitimacy and system of all the divine kingdoms that have been established by each other so far. Accordingly, he took a quill on a piece of white parchment and scribbled something for a long time, then stamped it with his ring and said:
“Send envoys to the Holy Kingdoms to deliver letters. I hope that you will continue to spread God’s will throughout the continent of Arcadia and devote yourself with all your might to lead the followers.”
Amen that ended the confusion that would arise due to continental integration and ended traffic control. The time when a priest received and saved the letter he was handing over. Egudiel brought up the story again with a serious expression as if the report had not yet been completed.
“And…the seal of eternal ice has been broken.”
“If it’s a seal of eternal ice… you mean that iceberg?”
Egudiel asked Amen with an expression of disbelief at his words. But he nodded vigorously as if he were sure.
“That’s right. I went there and checked it myself. I felt firsthand that all the ice that was holding down the sacredness of fire and steel melted and the heat emanating from the huge volcano enveloped the entire land.”
The immense heat of the flames spewing out as the Eternal Furnace starts operating.
As a result, the minerals hidden in the melted ice were revealed, and the place was transformed into a completely different look from before.
“A strange movement of dwarf clans is being detected everywhere. According to the intelligence that came in…. they are abandoning the shelter they are currently living in and preparing to move there. Also…”
The information coming from the believers and priests of the Saint Empire spread all over the continent. As soon as I put all of these together and started reporting the related contents one by one, Amen’s expression began to change seriously.
“Not only Dwarves, but halflings, wampy yodels, and even goblins are detecting such movements…?”
“That’s right.”
Dwarf clans spread across each continent.
Most of them were destroyed, but there was only one thing that meant that a similar phenomenon was appearing in all the surviving dwarf clans that were still alive.
“I will revive the civilization of the dwarfs again… I guess that’s what I mean.”
The sacred place of Vulcan, the god of fire and steel, and a civilization once created by all dwarfs.
Ommic.
Egudiel said with a serious face to the movements of those who tried to recreate the splendid past in the present after their god was resurrected.
“His Holiness, that divinity of fire and steel was defined as an evil heresy in the distant past. If they reappear, I’m sure…”
“I’ll confuse the world again and seduce and corrupt our followers.”
Amen, who ends Egudiel’s words by saying that he knows everything. But he shook his head as if not yet.
“But now it is premature. If such a movement was observed, we would of course continue to keep a close eye on it, but there is bound to be a lot of backlash to move right now. Especially now that immortal beings called adventurers have appeared.”
Holy Empire Saint who had an absolute position on the continent of Arcadia in the past.
However, starting with the witch hunt, they became more cautious than before.
“It is important to enlighten as much as possible those so-called adventurers to follow the teachings of our god. If we cause a fuss and the adventurers become dissatisfied with our Holy Empire, that can be the factor that weakens their faith.”
Even if you kill and kill, you will be resurrected and retaliate like a vicious being.
adventurers.
After killing them indiscriminately and eventually experiencing a huge mistake that created a tremendous evil force called the Maroon Kingdom. they realized The fact that the way to solve it by killing all the wrong things like before doesn’t work any more.
“We cannot ignore the influence of the Dwarf race. Of course, if they really want to resurrect the omnics… then they’ll have to be punished ruthlessly…”
Koo-Goo Palace. Quaang.
Amen, who soothed Egudiel by saying that it was not the time yet. However, he shut his mouth when he saw a young nun storming into his office with a contemplative face.
“His Holiness the Holy Lady… the Holy Lady…..”
A nun assisting the Saint. When she couldn’t speak properly with a frightened face, Amen raised his divine power with a friendly smile.
Whoops.
A divine power that has the effect of calming the mind. As the immense Pope’s divine power directly wrapped around her body, the young nun quickly regained her stability in the strength and warmth she felt inside.
“Has anything happened to the saintess? Why are you making such a fuss?”
“Saint Seo saw the revelation… but she showed a totally different reaction than before
… ”
A saintess with weak power like a candle in front of the sun. But instead, she was endowed with special powers that no one else had.
[Pioneer of causality]
A saintess who can use the special powers of an archangel and ruler of heaven, albeit weakly.
Her powerful foreknowledge and revelation had played a major role in establishing the Holy Empire as a nation with great influence, so Amen had never listened to her words.
And in such a violent reaction she had never seen before, she passed out screaming in agony and fear.
“He cried out in a painful voice I had never heard before. He has now collapsed from exhaustion… No matter how much divine power he pours into it, he will not regain consciousness.”
A saintess who collapsed after suffering a tremendous psychological blow. What the hell did he see that caused such a violent reaction?
“So why did the saintess scream and fall down?”
“I dare say that… I don’t understand the phrase…”
The nun frowned as if she couldn’t remember it well, muttering with an expression of uncertainty. But as if it was okay, Amen nodded and urged again.
“Okay. Be as honest as you remember.”
“In that case… I dare to deliver the revelation the saintess told me instead.”
Revelation delivered directly to the pope through the saintess in an otherwise solemn atmosphere.
So she shuddered for a moment at the fact that she had to do such a serious act herself, then took a deep breath and opened her mouth with a more serious face than ever before.
“An ancient divinity whose name was erased a long time ago will resurrect on this earth, so starting with him, all the divinities on this continent plan another resurrection.”
The Age of Lost Myths.
The young girl spoke again, telling the story of adventurers traveling all over the continent to awaken all the divinities that had been forcibly sealed.
“But all this is the will of God, so worship and praise his vast love and mercy.”
“hmm….?”
“…?”
A saintess who tells a revelation completely different from what they were talking about just before.
The Pope and Egudiel tilt their heads at her story and react strangely. Then the young nun shut her mouth in amazement at the thought that she had done something wrong.
“I am sorry, His Holiness the Pope. Even if I make a mistake…”
The pope and the highest-ranking holy knight were so high that even making eye contact made them feel breathless. That’s why she had no choice but to react sensitively to each small gesture of these two people.
“No. It’s not like that, but it’s because it doesn’t seem like a revelation that would cause the saintess to be in so much pain and fear.”
It’s a little confusing, but it’s still a story with no special content. However, at the words of Amen, she shook her head vigorously from side to side and replied.
“Everything I said was fine. Since then, the saintess has suddenly changed…”
When the nun said that it was not over yet, she gestured with a serious face to continue. Amen. At his hand signal, she said with a terrified face.
“However, all of this will be the seed of another unexpected tragedy, and a huge chaos that no one can stop will blow across the continent…” A saintess who foresaw the coming of a huge disaster starting with the resurrection of Vulcan
. . And she struggled with the definite future that was to come.
“Fear me, mortals. Kneel down, all those who live on this land…”
“And worship…”
“The moment when the owner of the black mist descends to Arcadia again.”
Arcadia could be destroyed… Numerous second half crises on a huge scale that no one can handle.
One of the triggers started to work.
