Genius Warlock-Episode 377
377. winged person (2)
“Oh, you're an angel······.”
Someone said in fascination.
It could have been people inside the temple, or it could have been fallen Servants nearby..
One thing was certain: someone said he was an angel, and no one denied it..
No, I went further and agreed with it..
Of course, he had wings on his back and radiated light from his body, lighting up the night sky..
It wasn't that strange to think of it as an angel..
As evidence, even Galahaut, who spent her life as a Holy Knight, and Marie, who was united in her faith in Oliver, recalled the word angel..
Everyone was fascinated by the man who appeared in the night sky..
Just one person. Except Oliver..
Oliver admired the winged person flying from the other side of the sky, but at the same time looked calmly at him..
I thought it was great.
I flew through the sky with wings on my back.
However, unlike others, I did not think of him as an angel. Because that was a person, not an angel.
No matter how many colorful feathers it adorns itself with, a crow is just a crow..
Therefore, when everyone looked at the winged person as something sacred rather than human, only Oliver looked at it as if he were looking at someone more magical..
“Sir... Is that the driver’s real goal??”
Oliver asked, recalling Galahaut's intentions from earlier..
Galahaut nodded..
“that's right. And I am the savior of mankind who will judge you... Bonifa!”
Galahaut shouted, and Bonifa, the savior of mankind, appeared in the night sky and flew towards us, circling the brightly colored night sky..
Even at first glance, the speed was incredible, and when the wings made of light were flapped once, a sonic boom was created..
It's amazing that you can fly with your bare body, but you can achieve that speed and endure that speed..
It was truly admirable..
[strong wind)]
Oliver decided that a concentrated attack was needed rather than a broad attack, and mixed his anger with the air magic of the Enlil school to create a black whirlwind..
As soon as the whirlwind was created, Tamhwa entered it and evolved into a huge pillar of fire filled with anger and greed..
A technique that completely destroyed Sheamus' large-scale spell in the past..
The huge and ferocious pillar of fire expanded its power indiscriminately and attempted to engulf, destroy and burn everything around it..
At that time, Oliver exerted control, preventing the reckless expansion of power, and compressed it so that only Bonifa was swallowed up..
A huge pillar of fire turned into a black dragon and flew towards Bonifa..
Even just looking at it would give you goosebumps, but instead of being scared, Bonifa rushed forward with an even more intense light..
Hwiiiiiiiing━━━━━Pang!!!
Bonifa rushed through the air like an explosion..
He entered the pillar of fire without a moment of hesitation..
bulge!
The pillar of fire that swallowed Bonifa bulged on one side as if a hernia had occurred. And that wasn't the end.
bulge!
bulge!
bulge!
bulge!
Cracks appeared in various places in the snake-like pillar of fire, and then collapsed with a horrifying explosion sound..
Amidst the huge explosion and aftermath, Bonifa came out leisurely and showed off his strength and health..
The overwhelming appearance shocked not only the servants, but also Mari and her group inside the temple, as well as residents and beggars who were secretly watching the situation..
It was similar to the figure of the warrior who captured the dragon in the legend..
But Bonifa didn't stop there..
He broke through a pillar of fire, stood on the heads of servants and paladins, and healed them by emitting soft light from his wings..
It seemed to be some kind of sacred method, and when the light was shined on it, everything from simple bruises to difficult-to-treat burns was completely cured..
like a miracle.
The servants who received help and the people around them who watched were in ecstasy..
“Oh oh······.”
“Bonifa! son of an angel···!”
“They said they were coming to participate in this operation.···.”
“oh······! oh······!”
“angel! A true angel!! savior of mankind!”
The servants cheered Bonifa, saying some annoying words..
Emotions that come from deep within the heart, not just a superficial display..
Perhaps thanks to this, the emotions emitted by the Servants were connected to each other, creating a strong synergy, and spreading like waves around them, exerting influence on other people..
Even to Mari and her group inside the temple, residents and beggars who were hiding and watching the situation..
Some of them assimilated the feelings of the Servants and muttered to Bonifa that she was an angel..
Emotions exceed a certain level and are highly contagious..
Of course, Oliver was also influenced by this. Not everything, though..
“Although he is a great person... Isn't it an angel??”
Oliver, who was looking at his surroundings, felt something was wrong and spoke softly..
Despite his calm voice, everyone around him looked at Oliver with a straight face..
It was a natural reaction.
As emotions grow in scale, other emotions become less acceptable..
Like a giant bird, it tried to destroy everything that was against it..
“dare. How blasphemous! What does someone like you know?!”
“I'm sorry if you were offended. But isn’t that person a person too? Even if your body emits light and you have wings made of light on your back, you are still a person. Just like a crow is still a crow even if it has colorful feathers.”
Oliver apologized politely, but expressed his initial feelings without hesitation..
To Oliver, no matter how he looked at it, he was a human being. No matter how talented he was, he was still just a person..
“Me, me······!”
Several servants expressed anger at Oliver's calm but firm words..
All of those who participated in this operation were sympathizers with the hardliners of the Paterism... However, there was one more reason they were angry..
This was because the intense sense of exaltation that I felt through Boniface's powerful power, divine appearance, and healing method that I had just shown was cooled to lukewarmness by Oliver's words..
Without any resistance.
At that moment, the servants felt intense rejection, guilt, and anger, along with the thought that their faith and belief were being tested..
“What kind of magic have you done on us??!”
“I just-”
“-Don't listen. everyone.”
Just as Oliver was about to reply, Bonifa interrupted him by flapping his wings that illuminated the darkness..
People were once again captivated by its majestic appearance..
“Why would the proud warriors of God try to converse with a false god? Every word that comes out of the author's mouth is a poison that tests your faith. don't listen.”
At Bonifa's words, the servants all calmed down their excitement and rallied around him..
Bonifa's firm belief and belief, and the self-esteem, confidence, and self-confidence based on him, were powerfully contagious and embraced the people around him..
Through the eyes of a warlock, Oliver was able to clearly see how his strong emotions combined with holy laws and what influence they had on the servants around him..
I have occasionally seen people with strong leadership do that, but the extent of the Boni faction was unusual, perhaps because they mixed in sexual laws..
‘But I don't know if this is right.’
Oliver felt uncomfortable watching Bonifa interfere with other people's will with her strong faith..
I didn't think I was qualified to judge anyone, but I kinda felt like it... Isn't it similar to the chosen people? pseudo religion and.
“Boniface, a paladin of the Pater Church. I command you now in the name of God. You blasphemous false god, disarm and surrender now.”
Bonifa said as she pointed her golden-plated sword at Oliver..
The light emanating from his body combined with the golden sword created a somewhat merciful and sacred atmosphere..
To Oliver, it's just dazzling.
“hmm······. Driver, have you ever met God??”
Oliver immediately asked a question..
Originally, he had planned to correct himself by saying that he was not a god and say hello politely, but he had already discussed the matter with Galahaut and decided to skip it..
Above all, looking at Bonifa's emotional state, it didn't seem like he had any intention of listening obediently..
So Oliver just asked what he was most curious about..
Does Paterism meet God?.
Actually, it was something I was curious about before. because······.
“······Everyone is so confident..”
“I warn you, do not take God into your profane mouth..”
“Since you say you command in the name of God, I was just asking if you have met God. Sir, sir. If you used his name without meeting him, wouldn't that also be a sin? ······Do not use my name carelessly. It is arrogance and a sin. Always be humble and modest, try to learn, not teach..”
Oliver quoted a scripture passage.
The surrounding paladins and servants who heard those words reacted slightly in surprise..
Warlock. Because I never expected that the false god of pseudo-religion would quote a scripture..
‘Should I thank Joanna??’
Oliver thought of Joanna as he watched the reactions of the people around him..
It was entirely because of her that Oliver began reading the scriptures..
However, this was a mistake. When I thought of her, her fatigue suddenly washed over me..
Maybe it's natural.
As soon as I heard about this place from Edith, I rewrote my thesis from scratch, met with Merlin and Forrest in succession, explained the situation, and immediately came down to Weinham to help Celine and others who had been captured by the Holy Knights..
I couldn't rest for quite a long time.
In that state, the battle has continued until now... No, honestly, the battle was okay..
It wasn't my intention, but thanks to this, I was able to fully use the power of nature and get a feel for it and learn from it..
The reason Oliver was really tired was because of the conversation with the paladins..
Perhaps it was because my speaking skills were not good, but the conversation with them didn't make sense and I was tired. Like now.
“Don't you dare quote scripture. How can a person without faith speak of the scriptures??”
“······Why can't you quote scriptures if you don't have faith??”
Oliver, whose concentration and patience were weakened due to fatigue, asked a question without going through his brain..
It was not just because of lack of stamina, but it was also a questionable issue from before..
Why are the scriptures of Paterism written in a way that prevents the reader's interpretation?.
It was as unnatural, unfair, and frustrating as having your feet shackled..
“Because unbelievers and blasphemers like you can distort things as they please..”
“Who decides what that distortion is??”
“Of course, that is our Paterism. Spreading teachings on behalf of God and protecting humanity.”
“Why do you think you're the only ones who can do that? Isn't it possible that other people are correct, and that a different interpretation may be correct in some cases??”
“How can God's teachings, interpreted by humans as they please, be the correct answer? Such an act itself is blasphemous..”
“I don't think so?”
Of all the conversations Oliver had had so far, he spoke the most decisively..
Surprisingly, no one could refute those words for a moment..
Even though I knew it was a pseudo-fact, it had a majesty that couldn't be ignored..
“Isn't it strange? If human interpretation is prohibited, why did they create scriptures? Why was the scripture written in the form of a story that can be viewed and interpreted from many angles??”
“Now, in front of the Holy Knight-”
“-Personally, I like God. I don't believe in Him as faithfully as you do, but apart from that, I like Him. He seems like a very generous and fair person. Rich and poor, children and adults, women and men, good citizens and even wicked outlaws seek Him when they need it most... What can I say about that... It seems very divine.”
The servant and paladin felt strange for a moment..
The being in front of them has now committed a very unholy act in front of them..
Dirty non-believer topic, you mention God..
However, no one was quick to get angry. This is because the non-believer in front of them approached without hesitation and narrowed the distance to the god who even they could not close the distance and could only look up and worship..
So much so that I get jealous..
“I don't think such a person would have told us not to think and to read the scriptures as interpreted by the Paterists. What do you guys think? I'm really curious.”
An artificial silence fell..
Feeling a feeling of denial, as if their path and place were being taken away by an unholy being in front of them..
They clearly came to suppress the cult, but for some reason they felt unfairly turned into a cult..
It was very unfair..
A feeling that no one involved in the Church of Paterism can accept..
This was especially true if he was the son of an angel chosen by the hardliners of Paterism..
Bonifa said as she faced the unpleasant being who seemed to deny her roots..
“After all, you're not talking to a cult..”
