331. Battlefield of the Gods (2)
Sometimes there are moments like that.
[Lee Ha-yeon: Seong-yoon, can you meet me
for a moment?] [Lee Ha-yeon: I’ve been preparing things to help Seong-yoon in my own way.]
[ Lee Ha-yeon: I think Seong-yoon would probably like it enough.
….”
Should I call it a kind of intuition?
There was a moment when I felt cold sweat flowing without knowing why and I sensed that the situation had flowed unintentionally.
And the senses that have been trained while climbing the tower and crossing the crossroads of life and death are now no longer just feelings, but closer to predictions.
That’s why I kept my mouth shut while watching the message that popped up on my smartphone.
“What…”
He must be…
[Lee Ha-yeon: Thanks to the divine power I received last time, I think I know what Seong-yoon needs.]
The message that popped up on the screen of my smartphone was unexpected.
However, as soon as I saw Lee Ha-yeon’s message on the messenger app, I was able to intuitively notice.
…The fact that the divinity < Lucky > was activated by satisfying the conditions was probably related to her actions.
“Divine power…”
And I smiled at him as if I was dumbfounded.
“Come to think of it, I did put it down.”
I will think of it now.
?All first-class followers who serve the god of transcendence are bestowed with the divine power (F+).
‘…At that time, the only F+ level of divine power was given to me just to give it a bit of strength.’
It turns out that I gave Lee Ha-yeon the power of divine power.
Even if you look closely, those who gave divine power were not limited to her.
Perhaps the lowest level of divine power was given to those who greatly worshiped me, including Catherine Bennett.
In fact, since he had distributed enough divine power to be invisible anyway, he was actually half-forgotten about it, let alone cared about it.
‘I never thought it would turn out like this…’
However, contrary to what I thought, many things have changed.
Before she knew it, Lee Ha-yeon knew that she had to gather faith based on the power of divine power, and it was not enough, and now she has achieved a religious revival to the extent of achieving achievements.
The appearance of religion where faith gathers without obstruction as if it were a matter of a thousand miles.
And only then did I suddenly realize the source of the religion called ‘Transcendentalism’, which I saw in David Taylor.
“This is how Transcendentalism was born…”
It was justified.
In fact, the divine power I gave from America at that time acted as snowballing and even formed the Transcendence Bridge.
At this point, it is tantamount to being directly involved in the origins of the establishment of the religion.
And that’s why I couldn’t help but notice that now I can’t dismiss the snowball of Transcendence as nonexistent.
‘What if…’
Wasn’t the Transcendental Church recognized in the Tower’s achievement system?
In short, it meant that Transcendentalism had already reached the level of being recognized as a religion.
Even if he avoided the situation like this, it would be meaningless.
Because at some point in the near future, the Transcendental Church will resonate with Earth in some way.
So now I had no choice.
“In the end, I have no choice but to see it for myself.”
And…
[The folding vortex]
The moment I quickly deployed the black magic spell to Lee Ha-yeon’s place.
“…”
As soon as I crossed the space, I had no choice but to keep my mouth shut at the sight that unfolded.
“Sung-yoon, are you here?”
He must be like that too…
“I was going to visit him myself if he hadn’t come, but…” It’s
because Lee Ha-yeon, standing in a dark place, said that with a smile.
“Still, it’s fortunate that we were able to show results relatively quickly.”
A place where only a handful of light came in, as if it were underground.
“I have prepared a lot in my own way so that I can be of help to Seong-yoon.”
Lee Ha-yeon, who was standing there, continued to speak with a cold glare in her eyes.
“This is the result.”
and.
‘What is this again…’
Then I had to look at the people on the other side, bowing their heads, in amazement.
?God…
Even if you roughly estimate it, hundreds of people were expressing awe while looking at me.
“…”
Only then did I open my mouth, which had been closed tightly, and let out a sigh mixed with words.
“…is that a lie?”
…Now it seems that I have become the head of a pseudo-religion.
***
A space that looks like a small relaxation facility with bright lights.
“…so what happened to this?”
Upon entering, I sat down on the sofa and narrowed my eyes as I looked at Lee Ha-yeon, who was sitting across from me.
It’s as if you have to listen to everything to clear your intuition.
And Lee Ha-yeon said with a bitter smile.
“…hmm. Could it be that you didn’t like the present I prepared for you?”
“If you see that and like it, that must be the problem.”
“…Ah, I think I know what it is.”
Only then did Lee Ha-yeon nod as if she had noticed.
“I think I misunderstood that it was a pseudo-religion, but don’t get me wrong.”
misunderstood?
In fact, at this point, there’s no need to call it a misunderstanding, and it must be a fake that you can’t even remove or beat.
I was puzzled why she said such a thing, so I looked at her and Lee Ha-yeon continued talking.
“Actually, I found out some facts about the things I learned while climbing the tower and Seongyoon-ssi’s power.”
“What is that…”
“Seong-yoon’s strength comes from faith, right?”
“…”
And unexpectedly, I shut my mouth at Lee Ha-yeon’s words.
I never thought I’d be able to figure out where the power of the godhead was based so clearly…
But it wasn’t that strange if I had to look at it.
In the first place, you can encounter many stories related to the gods while climbing the tower, and in the giant tree labyrinth, you had to openly fight the battle between the gods.
So, I was able to guess her information acquisition process to some extent.
“There is one thing I learned when you gave me divine power before.”
Not even that.
“Like the apostles I saw at the tower, Seongyun-ssi can bestow the power chosen by the godhead.”
“That’s…”
“So Seong-yoon probably has the same power as the gods in the tower.”
“…”
Before she knew it, Lee Ha-yeon read right away that I was close to a god.
“That’s why I gathered them because I thought they would need faith like the deities in the tower.”
She sat down on the sofa opposite and continued talking while eating refreshments on the table.
“And in fact, they don’t purely worship Seongyun.”
“Then…”
“They all need divine power, so that’s all they do.”
“…”
“Perhaps most of the people who joined the Transcendental Church wanted Seong-yoon’s divine power.”
“Is that so…”
Only then did I stop giving her suspicious glances.
Come to think of it, in the emotions of those who were polite like a pseudo-religion, unlike their attitude, I didn’t feel that much worship.
In fact, the concentration of faith accumulated in the body was not that strong.
Perhaps it would not have been strange if the reason why he became a member of the Transcendental Church was focused on gaining divine power rather than pure worship.
In fact, if that were the case, it wouldn’t even be considered a pseudo-religion.
“Then I understand.”
Wasn’t it something you planned to gain worship on Earth anyway?
That’s why I immediately accepted her words without any refutation.
And…
?The special divine authority ‘Designate Follower’ is activated.?
?You can designate a follower and harvest faith from them.?
?Currently, the number of followers worshiping the god of transcendence and death is [2169683]. ?
?Currently, the number of followers that can be designated as followers of the god of transcendence and death is [28712].?
Immediately after activating the special divine authority ‘Designate Followers’ and selecting followers.
?The power, ‘Divine Power (F+)’ is bestowed on all first-class followers who serve the god of transcendence and death.?
As it is, it gave power to a few people who met the qualifications to obtain divine power.
Of course, it’s at most a rat’s tail of holy power…
but maybe it’s possible to inflate the holy power with this.
And I immediately looked at Lee Ha-yeon and stopped talking again.
“I gave divine power to those who were qualified to receive new powers.”
Anyway, if a religion like Transcendentalism appeared on Earth, it would be an opportunity to use it properly.
“…Perhaps it will be easier for Ha-yeon to focus on missionary work as she wants.”
That’s why he said as if he would entrust her with Transcendentalism, and openly allowed her to engage in missionary work.
‘Well, I don’t have to pay much attention to Transcendence anyway, so it shouldn’t matter.’
Is that why?
“Really?”
Lee Ha-yeon smiled brightly and was very happy as if she had been recognized.
“Whoa…”
And she laughed out loud like that, then said as if she was satisfied.
“With this, I can help Seong-yoon in a different way than Catherine Bennett.”
“….”
“I will continue to nurture the success of Transcendence so that I can be of sufficient help to Mr. Seong-yoon in the future!”
“Yeah…”
But it didn’t really matter.
It’s Lee Ha-yeon, not me, who actually manages the Transcendence Church.
And since I was the only one who would eat all of the rewards from that management, there was nothing stopping her from saying that she would be of any help.
But…
‘Still, something is unpleasant.’
If there’s one thing that bothers me, should it be her words and actions?
‘…Come to think of it, I saw the Celestial Church before and called it heresy.’
There were a few corners that I didn’t know why.
‘…Couldn’t it be that they really worship Transcendentalism?’
He said things he didn’t know what to say, such as calling the Celestial Church a heresy and being helpful in a different way than Catherine Bennett this time.
“…”
But that was only for a moment.
‘No way.’
In fact, wasn’t Lee Ha-yeon originally a person with common sense before the tower appeared?
However, I would not really worship something like Transcendentalism.
I don’t know what Katherine Bennet is, but I think she’s ready to help…
She wouldn’t do something like a cult like this.
So you won’t have anything to worry about.
‘Yes, there really won’t be anything more to worry about.’
…maybe.
***
Time passed quickly and it was time to go back.
“Time is over.”
“Return to the Tower of Trials.”
In the blink of an eye, a system message appeared before my eyes and the space changed.
“I’m back.”
The appearance of the stone chamber that was so far from seeing that it was unmatched by the silence.
Only then did I know that I had come to the place on Earth that I had longed to return to.
The time on Earth, where he had plenty of time left before he knew it, had come to an end, and he returned to the tower.
‘For now, let’s check the things we got from Earth again.’
And then I immediately checked the skills I got as an achievement reward on Earth.
?Skill – Conversion of Faith (S-)?
?Proficiency level – 0%?
?Basic effect – It is possible to temporarily use faith by changing it into a desired type of ability.?
?Detailed effect – Support the desired type of ability with faith. By doing so, it is possible to temporarily strengthen it.”
Among the achievement rewards obtained this time on Earth, one of the only skill-type rewards caught my eye.
“This is…”
I had to open my eyes wide after reading all of the skill ‘Conversion of Faith (S-)’ in a short time.
“Is that the first time you have a means to use your faith differently?”
It was worth it.
Although it was also noticeable that it was a skill-type reward that I hadn’t gotten in a long time
.
‘I think I can use this as it is.’
It seems that faith can be changed into divine power or magical power or physical ability…
Then it was possible to directly utilize faith in battle.
It could even be used as a hidden move.
So, to some extent, I was satisfied.
‘Then, it seems that the confirmation is over with this…’
This is because the number of cards that can be used in battles between gods has increased.
At least it could be said with certainty that faith had become a resource for another battle.
Even that, depending on the situation, can greatly contribute to winning or losing.
‘at las.’
So…
“I’m entering the 26th floor of the Tower of Trials.”
“Is it time to climb the tower?”
Now, as always, you will have to climb the tower.
