Chapter 21 – Thanksgiving (4)
Seeing the card Hanyeong held out, I paused for a moment and looked around. But there was no need to lie to us unless you wanted to feel petty superiority.
Maybe the card is real. The three of them had risen to the top after only a month or so after leaving our party.
“What, how…… ?”
“How? Rather, we would like to ask What did you do all this time and are you still doing it?”
“Yeah…….”
I explained to Hanyoung how we were and how we had been.
Everyone shared it to make money, and then realized that they could use Seoyoon’s ability to go up to the 3rd floor without difficulty, and came up.
Right now, we go through dungeons a few times a week to make money, and the other kids are enjoying the benefits…….
After hearing that, Hanyoung grabbed her navel and started laughing at us.
“What are you guys, hogu? Are you tall? Why are you taking care of those bastards?”
“Yeah, we’re friends.”
“Friend? Sounds like a dog It seems like you’re trying to take care of your sense of morality, but throw it away right away. If not, those bastards will hold on to your ankles for the rest of their lives and parasitize? “
It was not wrong. However, there was no word that he would abandon them right away. If I had been able to throw it away so easily in the first place, I would have thrown it away right away.
Hanyeong looked at us worried and she let out a sigh.
“Eww, I tried to invite you to our party, but I couldn’t. With such a mind, you will get caught no matter what you do.”
“…… We take care of it.”
“Yes, yes, you guys take care of yourself… As classmates. I will give you one last piece of advice.”
While saying that, he cited an RPG game that originally existed in the world as an example.
“Have you ever played the game? Something like Maple or Dunpa.”
“No, I don’t have one.”
“Are you Seoyoon?”
When Seoyoon also shook her head, Hanyoung salivated and asked how that could be.
“Hey, you two were both lacking in social skills. Yes what So have you ever played the game? A mobile RPG game.”
“That much…….”
“Let’s say we picked a character with a damn good performance there. Then what should I do?”
“Well? Upgrade?”
“I’ll keep sending the dungeon until that character can’t break it.”
“Uh… Why?”
“Because it’s more profitable to go around the dungeon on the upper floor a few times than to go around the first floor dungeon hundreds of times like you guys do.”
“There was not much difference when I went up to the second floor, but it actually decreased…….”
“Am I talking about the second floor? I’m talking more than that.”
Of course, in the game, the character runs until it is impossible to clear at all, but in reality, it is impossible to do so, so the floor that can be eliminated with one shot with the ability is called the Maginot Line.
Hanyoung said that with our abilities, there would be no problem until the 10th floor.
“Okay? What you guys did was to catch mice with a ox knife.”
“Thanks for letting me know.”
“Thank you, kid.”
Hanyoung smiled and said.
“Come up quickly. If you do that again next time, just give it to me.”
“…… I get it.”
Leaving those words behind, Hanyeong and his party disappeared into the distance. I looked into Seoyoon’s eyes as I pondered over the words Hanyoung left.
If Seoyoon was thinking about something, he asked me after making eye contact with me.
“…… What do you want to do?”
“For now—let’s think about it later.”
“What?”
At my words, Seoyoon glared at me as if she were serious. I shrugged.
“Today is date day. Do I have to worry about something like this until a day like this?”
“…… That too.”
Hearing those words, Seoyoon held my hand and moved forward. Hanyeong’s words were important, but this festival was a holiday decided to enjoy together.
It was crazy to worry about work even on holidays. Play when you play, be sure when you work. Separation of public and private affairs is the secret to success that many entrepreneurs say.
* * *
The last day of the festival.
After talking with Seoyoon for the night, we decided to keep the words we heard from Hanyoung a secret, so we headed to the plaza with the other children.
“The sesame seeds are pouring, pouring. Is it not?”
Deokgu looked at me and Seoyoon and said so. Hey, from Deokgu’s point of view, the guy who had been having fun with Ilone until a few days ago was scattering pink vibes with Seoyoon.
From his point of view, it must have been so enviable that he couldn’t stand the itching of his mouth.
“Can I date you too?”
“If that’s the case…….”
Deokgu grabbed his face and started blaming himself. It was as if he knew that it was impossible. A person who is half aware of the fact that he will never have a relationship with the opposite sex for the rest of his life, and yet cannot give up…….
“It is another world. There might be someone who likes your face.”
“…… Thank you even for the words.”
“Ah, let’s begin.”
After Deokgu stopped talking, I watched the paladins and saints appearing through the crowd. I couldn’t see it in detail because people flocked to it, but I could tell that it was a beauty just from the atmosphere it gave off.
Nod
It was hidden in a veil, but those who tasted even a little of her beauty up close began to collapse as if they were dead.
The fallen people pushed the people behind them, and the space surrounding the saintess expanded even more.
As the people in front made such a fuss, people began to stare at her saintess with more curiosity. I pray that by chance, even if the wind blows, I will be able to see that bare face.
Unfortunately, however, the saintess did not reveal her face.
I judged her beauty by looking at her saintess.
‘That’s a saint or a whore….’
As if she would not expose her bare skin, she wore a loose white nun’s uniform, white gloves, and even a white veil.
At first glance, it looked like a cylinder made of white.
However, her voluptuous body is revealed whenever she moves quietly. It broke all balance.
From then on, the saintess was confined naked in a baggy nun’s uniform and was only seen as a stripper exposing her body.
‘Driving me crazy…… Have I hugged too many women lately?’
This would be a side effect of my abilities. I thought so. Otherwise, this wouldn’t be possible…….
Then, her head throbbed and went numb. She rubbed her temples with a sudden headache and closed her eyes for a moment.
When she opened her eyes again, an angel was flying in front of her eyes.
“Father. Oh My God.”
“Oh, my God…….”
The saintess was offering her prayers to her. After a while, the angel who came down to earth in response to her prayers spread her blessings her with a smile.
Glittering feathers like pure white snowflakes fall one after another. People tried to move him around to receive him, but soon realized they didn’t have to.
The sky was full of blessings. It was to the point where I wondered if I would be receiving fewer blessings if I moved my body to receive more blessings.
While that pure white blessing obscured the sight of all citizens, I gazed at the fluttering angel’s dress.
‘…… Does the ability work on angels?’
If an angel had a pussy, wouldn’t it work? As I thought about that nonsense, the angel disappeared before I knew it.
Those who directly received the blessing began to prostrate themselves on the floor in tears. Instinctive worship of God.
The saintess who finished her prayer her raises her body her. Her people her began bowing down towards her and praising her her divine powers her.
‘What.’
Just now, it felt as if the eyes of the saintess and her met.
‘I guess not.’
There are a few people in this place, but they probably haven’t even seen my face.
* * *
The last day of the festival. Praying for the country was the duty and right of the dispatched clergy.
However, the saintess did not even like that duty.
“Annoying…… Lotte, can’t you wear this instead of me?”
“Is that all right, saintess?”
“But, you and I look alike, don’t we? If I put my hair on, no one will know.”
“…… Whew.”
“Uh! I sighed! I’m a saint! She’s a saint!”
Her years of duty and sacrifice her, and the overprotection of her natural blessings her, were wearing her down.
She tried to get out of this bondage by acting suspicious of her infantile regression of her, but all the people who served her saint were priests.
Even though her dementia-ridden old man poops on her wall her, she laughs and cleans it up, but nothing about her has changed to the extent that she whines.
“Ah…… It’s annoying… Who created this kind of event?”
When the saintess, who barely threw off her witticism, headed for the plaza, Charlotte put on her full body armor and followed her her.
It was the procession of the saintess. No threat approached her. An empty road, dozens of paladins and guards created a wide space near the platform.
The saintess climbed on top of her step by step. She dragged her long, unnecessarily long nun’s uniform on her floor so that her inner flesh her wouldn’t show through.
Likewise, the gloves and stockings made her to hide her skin her were sticky and uncomfortable.
Under all these adverse conditions, the saintess stood on her podium without showing any signs of discomfort. She raised her prayers in a voice so feeble that no one could hear her.
“…… God bless them. Have pity on the Lamb, and save more of your servants.”
She is so loved by her god that she is blessed by Virgo. God immediately granted her request for her.
A beautiful angel descends from heaven. Countless feathers flutter from the wings of an angel that came down flapping its wings.
‘I’m going to lose my hair.’
She watched people watching while thinking about those fleeting thoughts. Now that everyone’s eyes were focused on the angel, this was the only time the saintess could safely scan people.
‘Ah.’
While watching people like that, the saintess met eyes with a man. It was no coincidence. It must have been a fate forever by the gods.
‘That person.’
Since the saintess was often able to come into contact with divine beings in the heavens, she found a commonality that appeared in the gods.
Unlike the lowly people on the ground, looking at them, the point of view collapsed as if space were distorted.
It was partly due to the divinity of a divine being, but it was also because she was a born psychic. She is truly loved by the gods…….
Judging from her natural spiritual vision of her, very slight distortions were taking place around the man’s body.
It was something she had only seen from her gods her, so she thought for a moment that her own body her felt weak and dizzy.
It wasn’t.
-The stars will fall.
Since ancient times, stars have been a common term for huge and sacred things. So, if the being she was looking for was so divine and huge, it wouldn’t be strange if it caused a phenomenon like a divine being.
‘Found.’
The saintess’ eyes caught her dojin. Those were the eyes of a hunter looking for prey.

“What is this…….”
Level up.
That word, which could only be used in games, was used mainly by adventurers who often explored dungeons in this world.
As the word says, the rank goes up.
I could see firsthand why people chose the word level up.
It was an ecstasy that cannot be expressed in words. Physical ability rises, and the bar ability evolves.
“This… Hanyoung deserved to say that.”
Leaving dozens of orc corpses behind, we enjoyed the pleasure of leveling up.
