How the Cult Saves the World
Chapter 56
56fury
I was so surprised that my mouth opened by itself. What pierced Hamel's chest was a hand with long, sharp nails like a dagger..
“Gagging, gagging!”
Hamel was bleeding and complaining of pain. But that didn't last long. This is because his breathing was cut off in an instant after a sharp puncture hit the center of his chest..
Crunchy soup!
As soon as the hand that pierced Hamel's chest slipped away, the body fell to the floor. A man was standing behind him. The man standing with his back to the moonlight was Troy Montt..
“ah…….”
Hamel's blood was dripping from one of Troy's arms. For some reason, the sight felt so far removed from reality that it gave me goosebumps..
‘I knew Troy was coming, but I never thought he'd show up here like this.…….’
It seems like he wants to take revenge with his own hands..
“What the hell is that…….”
When Hamel died and the demonic energy encroaching around him disappeared, Zain came to his senses and approached. She seemed quite surprised to see Troy. How should I explain it? When she keeps her mouth shut not knowing how to react.
“Interest… … My clan and my enemies..”
Troy said. Even in those short words, Troy's emotions touched me deeply..
Troy's golden eyes were full of deep sadness and regret..
- It's a pity. just…….
Kairos sighed in sorrow. I also sighed softly. Then Troy spoke calmly with moist eyes..
“My clan was played by this guy. Half of them died, half of them became monsters and I took them by my own hands.…….”
Troy didn't shed any tears, but I could tell he was crying. Neither I nor Zain nor Kairos could speak..
The next moment, Troy stared at me. When our eyes met, his expression softened slightly..
“thank you for saving me.”
He bowed his head to me politely..
“you are my benefactor.”
I looked at Troy for a moment and then slowly opened my mouth..
“my name is leviathan.”
“……know. I'm Troy, Troymont.”
Although it was only a brief introduction, the somewhat stiff atmosphere immediately relaxed. But Zain didn't seem to like Troy's attitude..
“Do you know who this person is and say that??”
He furrowed his brows and spoke crookedly to Troy. Troy's eyes widened slightly at his words. It was a face that said I didn’t understand..
“This person is the leader of the Kairos Church. So be polite..”
Zain, this guy. Still, you think about my social standing. It's a little bit, but I can see it again.
“kairos religion?”
Meanwhile, Troy tilted his head at Zain's words. It felt like a cat tilting its head..
“Kairosism is different from most religions on this earth. In particular, it is the polar opposite of the Diego Church and the Rize Church. It is a place where no one is oppressed and where one can enjoy freedom. It is natural to be polite to the leader of the Kairos Church..”
Zain said this while roughly running his fingers through his hair. Somehow I feel like Zain is more serious than me, the person involved..
“kairos religion…….”
Troy looked at me and widened his eyes. For some reason, her face seems a little brighter than before..
“Zain, don’t force it..”
First, I stopped Zain from saying more..
“yes? But I can't be the only one who respects my master..”
That's right. It was unfair that this bastard was the only one using the honorific term. Troy probably didn't like the way he spoke informally..
“Zain. You are my servant. Not Troy.”
“but……!”
Zain tried to protest as if it was unfair, but he soon kept his mouth shut. This is probably because there is nothing wrong with what I said that can be criticized..
“Leviathan. If you want, I'll be polite..”
But even though Troy saw Zain and I arguing, he said nothing. Seeing that, it was me who felt embarrassed instead of Zain..
“are you okay. but… … I won't call you anything other than your first name, Master or Levi.?”
I built it, but Leviathan never gets used to it..
“That's right.”
Troy's mouth softened. Even though Zain still disapproved of Troy, the situation was sorted out..
Then, there is only one thing left. I glanced around the high priest's office. A place I've already been to several times. Even with my eyes closed, I could tell where the demon god's protection was. I felt a lot of discomfort, perhaps because of Kairos' sexual power..
‘Is it this way?.’
The left wall of the high priest's room. I felt an unpleasant energy wafting from the space covered by the curtains..
When the curtain was removed, a small space with the devil's protection was revealed behind the archway..
“This…….”
“marble?”
Zain and Troy followed me and stood next to me. I opened my mouth, looking intently at the demon's protection..
“This is the devil’s blessing. It does not function to protect the Rize Church chapel..”
I held the sacred club tightly and told the two people to step back. After Zain and Troy fell, he swung his club..
Kwazijic!
The demon god's protection shattered with a loud sound. Soon, as soon as the powdered black beads slowly disappeared, a system window appeared in front of my eyes..
[‘Destroyed ‘Demon God’s Protection’.]
[Obtain the land and buildings of the ‘Rize Church Aldone Branch’ through the effect of the achievement ‘Demon God’s Protection Destroyer’..]
[‘You have acquired land and buildings for the Aldone Branch of the Rize Church..]
[‘It is possible to establish a ‘Kairos Temple’!]
[‘When establishing the 'Kairos Temple', you will receive a 'Aldone area one-time purification ticket' as a reward..]
[Would you like to establish a temple??]
[yes/no]
I was a little startled by the message window that appeared before my eyes..
‘uh……?’
First, let’s organize it step by step. It was clearly a similar message to the message received when dealing with the Lovell branch of the Rize Church, but one part was missing. It was a ‘first’ at the time, but not now. Still, this level of compensation is considerable.?
‘and…….’
First of all, I didn't know that the achievement 'Demon God's Protection Destroyer' had such an effect..
‘It appeared this way in Lovell as well, but I thought it was possible because it was the first time. Eat the land… … Does it feel the same??’
It seems that whenever the demon god's protection is destroyed, the land and buildings can be taken over..
‘It's an unexpected harvest.’
This may be useful later. Moreover, while acquiring land and buildings, a temple was also established. At this rate, it wouldn't be impossible to eat the entire continent. Instead of having to go through the trouble of building a new temple, all you have to do is occupy the place that already exists..
‘I never thought I'd get a purification ticket as a bonus..’
I was even more happy because I didn't expect this. I immediately clicked ‘yes’.
[‘The ‘Aldone Branch of the Church of Rize’ was converted to the ‘Temple of the Church of Cairos’!]
As soon as the notification window appeared, Kairos roared with joy..
- oh my god! Unbelievable! My Lamb, the second temple! Thank you so much!
‘What. I just did what I had to do..’
I didn't know this was possible either.
- This is not the time!
It was that moment. A pure white light appeared before my eyes, and it gradually began to change into a human shape. The halo of light instantly turned into Kairos. My eyes opened wide without me realizing it..
‘Still crazy good looking.’
Even though there was no wind, the combination of red hair fluttering in the air and beautiful golden eyes was enough to captivate me even though I had met Kairos several times. Moreover, Kairos was looking at me with her eyes folded beautifully..
“Thank you, my child..”
Kairos held out a sphere of light to me. I immediately reached out and took it..
“Oh, no, no. Kairos.”
Perhaps because I was struck by such a beautiful appearance, I even stuttered for words. No matter how much you think about it, isn't the feeling of intimidation when you are incarnated very different from when you are in a soul body?.
“Please take care of me in the future too..”
Kairos returned to the light with a greeting. And the light came straight to me.
‘My heart almost dropped…….’
That beauty is harmful to the heart. really.
“Wow, what about that just now?……?”
When the sphere of light that Kairos gave me also entered into me. I heard Zain’s voice from next to me..
“It's Kairos..”
As I said that, I turned my head and saw Zain with his jaw wide open. My eyes are falling out. And it was the same with Troy..
“Kairos……?”
Troy also seemed quite shocked by the appearance of God, which he had seen for the first time in his life..
“Troy, this is Kairos whom I serve. You are the most gracious person in this world..”
However, my words did not reach Troy. Troy was still staring at the spot where Kairos had stayed, mesmerized. Same goes for Zain..
‘……He'll come to his senses little by little, okay?.’
By the way, I received a religious uniform from Lovell when the temple was first established. This is only Jeonghwagwon. It was true that I was a little disappointed, but I smiled slightly as I looked at the purification ticket in my inventory..
‘Where is this though?.’
First of all, temple management… … Should we do it later?.
“Really, it's amazing..”
Zain muttered, his eyes still blank. Still, he seems to have come to his senses more than before..
“yes? I've seen it a few times and it's amazing..”
“Well, then why did Kairos appear here? It looks like he's giving something to his master..”
“iced coffee. Now this is a Kairos temple. What I received... … It's something we need right now.”
“yes?”
Zain’s eyes became bigger than before. It was then that Kairos' voice was heard..
- Baby, but it would be difficult to use this place as a temple right now.?
‘I guess so. It's hard right now because I have to go to Bahanu too. It would be possible if we could bring the children from Lovell... … I don't want to do that. I don't want to increase the children's work..’
If only there were more priests. Managing Aldone's temple was still a long way off..
- Hmm. I guess so. Then I guess I should at least make some blessings..
With those words, white light erupted from my body. The light was formed into a sphere in the place where the demon god's protection had previously been, and was transformed into the protection of Kairos..
Pure white light emanated from the completed protection and spread throughout the chapel..
“This… … This light…….”
“warm light…….”
Zain was surprised, and Troy was also surprised. In particular, Troy approached God as if he were possessed. And he stretched out his hand and touched the blessing..
[‘Troy Montt became a believer in Kairos..]
uh? oh my god. This was a completely unexpected harvest. I saw Troy smiling at God as if he were mesmerized. It seems that Troy became a believer not only because he witnessed the real Kairos incarnate, but also because he saw the power of Kairos..
Well, if I were to face God before my eyes and even see God’s power… … I have no choice but to come over.
“and. master. Today, it is the real Kairos church leader himself..”
Clap clap clap. Zain was truly impressed and even applauded me. Gotta love this.?
“I've been a cult leader since the beginning, motherfucker.”
When you say that and let out a small laugh.
“leader.”
Troy called me with a serious look on his face..
“I want to follow you too.”
Troy politely bowed his head to me..
