Chapter 1689 – 171. Conversation Between Saints and Women

Absolute color

It is no exaggeration to say that they personify the word, and the three women face each other.

Victorica, a saint of the Sun God religion with unique stubborn eyes and sun-colored hair

Lorelei, a saint of the Church of Genesis with long silver hair and hazy eyes and a languid aura

Layla, a saintess of Seonwoo Church with a gentle and relaxed smile and orange hair resembling the evening sunset.

It was truly an unusual event.

God’s representatives representing each religion gathered in one place.

“Then shall we begin the meeting in earnest? Saints.”

And the one who brought them together, the saintess of Seonwoo Church, Layla, slowly opens her mouth.

Then her two saints stare at her without saying a word.

If you have something to say, say it to your heart’s content

“First of all, I think you’re all curious as to why I brought you all together here.”

Layla began to speak in a calm tone.

“Since everyone is busy, let me get to the point first. We, Seonwoo Church, propose a joint front between the three religions to the Sun God Church and the Genesis Church.”

Layla’s orange eyes sparkle.

“Ha, united front?”

“Is that the only reason? To bring us all together?”

The two saints asked back with a puzzled expression.

Is it such nonsense to say that they are gathering saints representing each religion?

From their point of view, they couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded.

“That’s right, the reason I invited you all is for solidarity between religions.”

Layla shook her head and expressed her opinion again.

“Hmph, my effort was in vain.”

“Well, there’s no way something like that would be possible, right?”

By nature, religion is a very self-righteous law

It could never be mixed with other religions.

Building a united front is a no-brainer.

“It’s entirely possible. It’s unusual, but it’s not without precedent, right?”

“Are you talking about the human alliance from a hundred years ago?”

“I don’t know when we are talking about. Wasn’t it because that was when the public enemy called the Demon King first arose?”

The situation is different from then.

Currently, the devil, who was a public enemy, has completely disappeared

“No, it’s no different than back then.”

“What?”

“What do you mean?”

The saints asked those words in a puzzled tone.

“The common enemy has appeared again, a being so desperate that all of humanity must unite to confront it.”

Layla’s orange eyes sparkle.

“…Are you saying that the demon king who disappeared has appeared again?”

“What kind of nonsense…If that’s the case, what a sign…”

“The omen has already appeared.”

Layla cuts those words with her single sword.

“Aren’t you curious? Why did Leord’s Empire make Seonwuism its state religion?”

And she begins to calmly continue her words.

At that moment, the eyes of the saints are focused on Leila.

“The reason is simple, it is because the God of Goodness personally stepped forward and killed Burvans of Arrogance, the man who tried to swallow up the entire empire, and protected the empire.”

“Bourbons of Oman!?”

“That blasphemous and ugly being is the Leord Empire?!”

At those words, the two saints widen their eyes in astonishment.

Bourbons of Oman

A member of the Four Heavenly Kings, said to be the greatest power, and a destroyer of religion who annihilated all large and small religions spread across the continent during the Great War.

If you are a religious person, you cannot be unaware of its notoriety.

“Yes, the destroyer of religion in the Great War, Verbans, is correct. He has been secretly plotting against the Leord Empire for a long time and attempted to assassinate the emperor and devour the empire. If the Good God had not stepped forward, the Leord Empire would have fallen into the hands of the Demon King’s army. It would have fallen…And slowly divided humanity from within.”

Creepy

At her words her, Victorica feels a chill run down her spine her.

The Demon Lord’s army is a being that humanity was able to barely fight against by uniting.

If such a being had been faced with internal division, humanity would most likely have been doomed.

“…The fact that Verbans, who was working in secret, has moved…Must mean that the invasion of the Demon King’s army is not far away.”

Saint of the Church of Genesis

Lorelai continues her words, biting her lip.

There can be no clearer omen than this.

The Four Heavenly Kings are like the hands and feet of the Demon King

Creep

“Then the person who murdered His Holiness Pope Benedict must be a member of the devil’s army.”

Victorica, a saint of the Sun God Church, grits her teeth and her anger her her her sparkles with her young eyes her her her.

Since Pope Benedict is a former combat priest, Ilshin’s military power is second to none within the religious order.

In addition, he was wearing a walking temple wrapped in protection and blessings, so he was equipped with a level of protection that even the seven rulers would not dare to challenge.

That’s why most people had doubts about his meaningless death

However, the moment the word ‘Devil King’ is added, the angles start to come together.

If the Four Heavenly Kings or the Demon King personally came forward to kill him, even that question would be immediately resolved.

“No, that incident has nothing to do with the Demon King’s army.”

Layla shook her head.

“What?”

When her prediction turned out to be wrong, Victorica frowned and asked again.

“The real culprit who assassinated Pope Benedict is different.”

“Who is the real culprit?”

Who on earth could harm Pope Benedict if not the devil’s army?

“I don’t know its identity, but I can assure you of one thing: its power is comparable to that of the Four Heavenly Kings.”

“Nonsense! There’s no way such a strong person exists other than the Demon Lord!”

Victorica vehemently denied it.

The strength of the Four Heavenly Kings is comparable to that of Hero Cecilia, who is said to be the strongest of mankind, with even the seven rulers who rule the continent looking down on her.

Can such a being exist outside of the Demon Lord?

Layla stared at her in silence.

Then, he takes out a piece of clothing from behind her and hands it to her.

“…This…”

Victorica takes her clothes and immediately opens her eyes.

“It is a holy relic of the Sun God religion worn by Pope Benedict, a walking temple.”

Layra shakes her head and opens her mouth.

The identity of the clothing is none other than the one and only relic left behind by the Pope.

A Noble Phantasm wrapped in the sun god’s protection and blessing

It was a walking temple.

“…There’s a hole near the heart…”

Victorica, who was examining her clothes, frowned.

“That too with pure strength…”

Not even a trace of divine power or magical power could be found.

The walking temple was destroyed by sheer force alone.

It was truly shocking.

What is a walking temple?

Isn’t it a top-class Noble Phantasm that won’t even get a scratch even if a great sage-level great mage decides to bomb it?

To be able to pierce something like that with pure strength

How can you not be shocked?

“Master Bahamut and Agnes said that it is possible to destroy a walking temple, but it would be impossible to destroy just a part of it so cleanly… If there is a being that can pull off such an atrocity, even if it is taken to the minimum, it would be a number above.”

“…The Dragon of Destruction and the Magic Festival…”

“I understand. A strong man a few levels higher than them would be at a level comparable to the Four Heavenly Kings.”

The saints agree with those words.

The Dragon of Destruction and the Magic Emperor’s Profession

I had no choice but to admit it.

How proud the seven rulers are

Because I knew it so well

“The enemy is not just the Demon King’s army, but a comparable being or force is lurking on the continent. That’s why I think inter-religious solidarity is necessary. Only then can we lay the foundation for human solidarity. “

Rayra continues speaking in a calm tone.

“Therefore, the saint of the Sunwoo Church, Rayra, formally requests the saints of the Genesis Church and the saints of the Sun God Church to join in solidarity for the peace of mankind.”

Layla stands up from her seat and extends her hand towards her her her her two saints her

“I refuse.”

And Lorelai, who had been silently staring at her hand, soon expressed her rejection.

“Was the explanation insufficient?”

“No, the explanation was sufficient, but I think the evidence to support the claim was lacking in many ways.”

There was only one basis she presented

It’s just a walking temple with gaping holes.

Nothing else was presented.

Naturally, credibility had to fall.

There is also a claim that the hands and feet of the Demon King, who had been working in secret, have revealed themselves

There is also the claim that he saved the Leordian empire that was in crisis

There is also a claim that Seonwoosin killed the Burns of Oman

There are also claims that a third force has emerged that may rival the Demon King’s army

These are all just one-sided claims lacking any basis.

In such a situation, accepting her offer was a hasty decision in many ways.

“Me too, the second coming of the Demon King and the emergence of the third force are ultimately just one-sided claims from the Seonwoo Church, right? If there is no evidence to back them up, they are just speculations, so how can we stand in solidarity?”

Victorica also looks at Leila with her suspicions.

“More than anything, no oracle has come down from Latrell yet.”

“Similarly, I also did not receive any oracle.”

In the first place, the great unification of religions a hundred years ago was led by the gods representing each religion.

He gave an oracle to the saint and recommended solidarity between religions.

There are only speculations and insufficient evidence

In a situation where there is not even an oracle coming down, it is impossible to accept Layra’s proposal.

“After hearing this, it seems like I was overly motivated, trying to persuade you with such weak evidence.”

Layla shook her head and accepted it obediently.

Even if she feels

This was because she felt that the arguments and evidence were insufficient in many ways to seek solidarity between religions.

“Either way, the conclusion is a breakdown.”

“Just get up, and as promised, I will take the Pope’s belongings.”

Soon, the two saints slowly stood up.

The purpose was achieved and there was nothing to see here anymore.

“Everyone is anxious.”

Rayra looks at them and calmly continues her words.

“As you know, it’s a very busy time.”

Funeral of Pope Benedict

Election of the next Pope

We must even go as far as tracking down the pleural effusion.

There is absolutely no time to relax.

“I don’t know what it is like about Seonwoo Church, but in Daejong Church, which is full of fundamentals like Genesis Church, the gap in saints is so big.”

These were not empty words.

As a saint who receives support from the people

It was a precious body with numerous events scheduled.

There is no reason to stay in a place with nothing more to see.

At that time when the two women were about to leave the conference room

Kiyiyi profit

The door begins to open by itself.

And then a peerless beauty with golden hair and pointed ears begins to reveal herself.

“Elf!?”

“…How could the child of the World Tree be here?”

At that sight, the two saints stopped walking with their eyes wide open.

My body froze at the appearance of a completely unexpected person.

But the astonishment did not end there.

Clump, clang, clank

The elf is pulled by a thick chain in his hand.

And then, pulled by the chains, a woman begins to appear.

A thick eye patch plastered with metaphysical patterns

Both wrists and ankles wrapped in huge restraints that are useful for violent criminals

Thin outfit that barely covers important parts

And numerous techniques with unknown meaning engraved on exposed skin

That appearance

It was truly bizarre.

So much so that even saints who have gone through all the hardships of childbirth would flinch

“This will be your first meeting, so let me introduce you to Sethra, one of the Four Heavenly Kings with the greatest power in the Demon King’s army and the queen of all succubi.”

Looking at the girls in confusion, Rayra began to continue her words.

“It is now the clearest evidence we have of the return of the Demon King.”

“Sethra?!”

“That woman is the succubus queen!?”

At those words, the two saints were shocked with their eyes wide open.

It was impossible not to know about the notoriety of Sethra, the succubus queen who corrupted numerous priests by sucking their blood and absorbing their power.

“What do you think? Is there enough proof now?”

Rayra smiles while looking at them.

‘…Hmm…The Church of the Sun is a temporary alliance…Is the Church of Genesis on hold..’

Even if it is one of the Four Heavenly Kings

In many ways, it seemed like it wasn’t enough to tempt the arrogant saint of the Church of Genesis.

‘…Still, we were able to attract the Sun God Church…So we can only take comfort from that.’

Although it was inferior to Genesis Church, which was at its peak of prosperity, it was still a place that hid its dignity as a great religion.

If we maintain an alliance with that place, we can at least avoid being helplessly collapsed by an unexpected attack.

‘…We need to strengthen our alliance with the Leord Empire and establish proper connections between nearby kingdoms…And also make contact with kingdoms of different races such as dwarves, nymphs, and mermaids…’〈 Br〉

Layra rotated his head furiously and began to think of a tactic to strengthen his power her her her her.

Until her respected and beloved Sunwoo returns

With the sole intention of protecting his people and land

The night full of worries deepens.
