Episode 152. The Truth About a Desert Island (1)

Episode 152 The truth about a desert island (1)

[Maljukgeoriboksangsa: I discovered a temple under the sea!

Today I dived into the sea to catch a bigger fish, and I found a temple like this!

(Photo of a temple made of rock)

It’s not an underwater city or building, but it seems like the island sinks and becomes submerged under water over time.

I think this might not have been an uninhabited island in the past. Even if it were an uninhabited island, the land mass would have been much larger than it is now.

This is a statue found inside the temple. It was quite heavy so it took some effort to drag it haha

If I were an ordinary person instead of a paladin, I wouldn’t have been able to save him.

Since she was a revered being with a female appearance, could she possibly be the goddess called Ishtania who brought us to this world?

I think that ancient people who worshiped the goddess might have lived on this island.

(Photos of items that appear to be magical tools)

I found these too. I brought it because I thought it might be helpful when praying to Malak.

I swept it all up in one go with a homemade net haha

Since these are items used in temples, wouldn’t they be effective in receiving help from gods?

I’m not sure, but I think we’re a little closer to land! I feel that way!

Full charge of positive energy!

Everyone, have a great day today!]

It seemed like an ordinary hopeful post, but the attached photo contained terrifying information.

“It is an idol modeled after the evil god Shamishr.”

This was the reason why the saint, who read the memories of another paladin and confirmed this post, hurried to the altar.

The winged female statue is not Ishtania but Shamishir. Shamishir is also a god with a female form.

The saintess who said that was quite excited. I guess she was always calm.

– It was not an uninhabited island, but a place where ancient humans lived.

Ancient humans were the first to worship Shamishir. Ancient humans lived on an isolated island. Did the land sink over time and become an uninhabited island?

“You’re right. “It is not my first time seeing the idol of Shamishr, but I have never seen it in such perfect condition.”

It’s a complete statue. A statue = a totem, so you shouldn’t look down on it because it’s just a figure.

“It will contain tremendous mystery and divinity.”

– What happens if the idol falls into the hands of Shamishr and the demonic forces?

“If there are enough devil worshipers… There is a possibility of restoration of godhood.”

I knew it. Then it becomes the worst situation.

Is this why the goddess sent Maljuk to a deserted island? To destroy the intact evil god idol?

You have a point. There must have been a plan similar to this, such as maintaining the number of paladins at 100.

Then why was Atomic Rex possessed? … To instill awareness among myself and users?

If so, then he really is a terrible god.

– It’s a good thing the demons haven’t advanced to the uninhabited island yet.

“That’s right. “I have to tell that paladin to be careful not to activate the idol.”

I need to get my head around this.

– Call a meeting.

It’s better to play with others than to play alone. Continuing from yesterday, a meeting was held today.

Geuncheop and Dina must have read Maljuk’s words and came right away after getting ready.

“I think it would be possible to bring that paladin to the Tribal Alliance. There are enough magical ingredients. “What remains is his will.”

Myu Li nodded her head after seeing the photo posted on the community with the saint’s supernatural powers.

– Can I bring it now?

“It’s possible. First, let’s get that paladin to take a few steps… “

As the priest who lived the longest, she was the one who immediately presented the solution. She is also a totem expert, Grandmother Muri.

First of all, I saved Mr. Maljuk. Next is about the disposal of evil spirits and idols.

No matter how much I think about it, it would be a waste to just destroy it.

If I complete the horse bamboo totem and can go to the uninhabited island, I can use the ‘Transfer Totem’ blessing to bring the idol to the tribal alliance.

Hmm… !

When I combined the information I already knew with the opinions of the leaders, I came up with a pretty interesting idea.

– How about luuring the demons to Symphonia with an idol?

By activating the idol, they have no choice but to come to the tribal alliance.

I think that the evil god who opened the portal would be in a position to give orders or requests to the Seven-Headed Dragon Devil, who became the commander-in-chief of the demons after the Dark Cloud Devil died.

If there were no evil spirits in the first place, demons could not live in this world. It must be similar to or a little higher level than the Seven-Headed Dragon Demon.

According to the saint, the reason demons could not ascend to heaven even though they ruled the earth for five years was because they could not make idols.

Her goddess Ishtania used her own powers to stop her demons and worshipers from creating idols. Just as the natives did not know the identity of the possessed person, those who became worshipers also forgot how to make idols.

It’s a power called ‘Veil of Deception,’ and I understood it to be something like a global hypnotic power that impedes cognitive abilities.

The reason such powerful power could be used was because the cathedral was still intact. It was designed so that only paladins could enter, so demons couldn’t even come close.

“Demon forces, including evil spirits, are obsessed with ascension. “You want to hold on to even the slightest possibility.”

The saint confirmed my opinion.

“If it is the first totem (idol), it has deep meaning. That evil spirit must be very special in its existence.”

Paya also agreed.

“It’s definitely an attractive trap.”

Geuncheob, who was avoiding Rachel’s gaze with her helmet pressed down, nodded at her.

“If only there was a way to activate the idol.”

Said Dina, her blonde hair tied up in a ponytail.

“Right! That’s no problem!”

Kanto, who was frowning and concentrating to follow the conversation, burst into laughter.

This guy is happy that he finally found out what he knows. Be half as similar to your younger sister Paya.

“Paladin, our tribal alliance has a tool that can grant faith.”

Lakhe, who was leaning on Totem No. 1, answered for me.

“Yare yare…” ” That would be a ‘prayer that could not be reached.'”

Yare Yare is Mr… ! I can’t bet on this.

Yes, you know Geumcheop. Because I got it thanks to you.

A prayer that could not be reached. This is a hidden piece obtained after defeating the Nightstalker demon at the Assassin Church headquarters.

Made from human bones and skin… It’s a terrible magical tool that resembles a grimoire somewhere, and it’s an item imbued with faith in a non-existent god.

It can be seen as a disposable battery of faith, where the faith that should have been absorbed by God remains intact due to the absence of God.

To me, faith is the score that can buy blessings. At first, I tried to absorb it, but I didn’t know what side effects it might have, so I left it in for now.

There was no reason to experiment with the unidentified hidden piece that the goddess had arranged since she had already obtained the incarnation.

I can’t believe it’s seeing the light here. As expected, everything in the world is new.

– Let’s start by bringing back the paladin trapped on the desert island.

“Yes!”

First of all, rescuing Mr. Maljuk is the top priority.

The saint used her supernatural powers to tell Muri the general situation of Maljuk.

“There is no problem with altars and totems. It’s excellent for something made by someone else than a priest. The problem is the medium. There was no medium to convey the faith to Malak.

If you use the swollen hands of the Demun Mountain monkey you see over there, the cutting knife, and the fan with a human face on it… “

Wow, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Myuri helped the conversation by overusing technical terms. Noah summarized what Muri said and posted it.

It wouldn’t be so bad if Sanz, who isn’t here, told me.

It was a few hours later.

[Maljukgeori Bokboksa: Completed!

(Photo of Malak totem and magic tools placed on the altar)

I arranged everything as instructed by Petite Noah, or rather, by Priest Muri!

Now all I have to do is pray!

… Everyone, thank you for your support. There were times when I wanted to die, times when I resented the world, and times when I hated myself.

Still, I wanted to live. No, I will buy it. I want to live and breathe.

Malak, I will pray for you. I will cry out for your precious name.

If you happen to hear it, please respond.]

The groundwork is all finished. All I need is for Maljuk’s prayer to reach me.

“It must be a sincere prayer. If you do not truly worship Malak, no matter how good the medium is, you will not be able to reach it.”

It was even more believable since it was said by Paya, who brought me and Jinmalak down to earth.

How long did I wait? A man’s voice is heard from afar.

‘Malak, do you hear my prayer? ‘A lowly man offers his prayers.’

At las. Finally!

– I heard your prayer.

‘Ah… !’

I transferred my consciousness to the totem that was right there.
