[recovery)]
With that one word, an unbelievable sight unfolded..
The light of the whole world left its place and gathered towards one place..
The light that defeats darkness, purifies negativity, and brightens the world..
The first target was a pond.
A pond that was desperately guarded to prevent a woman riding a camel from approaching..
The root of the Holy Dharma contained in the pond rested in the hand of a woman riding a camel, and then the capital of Paterism, Seonghwangsi-guk, was born..
On a sacred hill towering in the middle of it all, the sacred laws of over a hundred holy knights who fought against the devil left their bodies and entered the hands of a woman riding a camel..
[The name ‘return (回收)’. In that one word.
Naturally, as if returning to the original position.······.
The holy light that brightened the night sky like day glowed like that in the devil's hands, and all the paladins who suddenly lost their light fell to the ground..
Because the blessing of the holy law disappeared, they were weighed down by the weapons they were wearing..
However, this was only a secondary reason..
The real reason was not physical, but mental..
Because most people knew that the sacred law was a power given by God..
Such sacred law leaves their bodies and resides in the hands of the devil? Instinctively, I could only think of one thing:.
‘'God has really abandoned them.'.
That fact alone was enough to make the paladins and priests who had served God their entire lives collapse..
In that overwhelming despair. However, this was just the beginning.
Before I could even lose my mind over the fact that the holy dharma had disappeared, countless sacred dharmas flew like a meteor shower over the horizon and began to dwell in the hand of the woman on the camel..
“······Nonsense.”
Someone said softly. 'Cause I knew what was happening.
I was able to understand what was going on as if it were being explained directly to my brain..
Not only here, but the Holy Dharma from all over the world was gathered into the hands of a woman riding a camel..
The sacred law was completely out of human hands..
Paaaaaaaa······!!!
Every time the holy dharma gathered together, the light in the hand of the woman on the camel sparked a gust of wind and shone brighter..
As the light became brighter, despair appeared on people's faces, but the holy law in the devil's hands did not care and glowed more and more strongly..
Indifferently, as if the emotions that people are experiencing right now have nothing to do with him..
The sacred law that came together like that became endlessly bright, killing all light other than itself and coloring the surroundings with darkness..
It was such a paradoxical phenomenon..
Because the light is so bright, the surroundings are instead stained with darkness..
In that darkness, the paladins once again fell into despair..
The Holy Knights rose again after seeing Joanna's courage in absorbing the holy blood and Kevin's will as an archive..
“no way······.”
The woman riding the camel spoke in voice. Through the mouths of Sister Della.
Her voice is as sweet as the voices of countless nuns singing in unison..
I'm crying······!
It was painful.
The eyes, nose, mouth, and ears of about a hundred paladins around me. So much so that it bleeds from seven holes..
It was no different from Joanna who absorbed the blood and Kevin who became the archive..
Inside, the woman on the camel continued talking..
“Did you think you could win??”
The paladins who were bleeding from their eyes, nose, mouth, and ears fell to their knees unable to overcome the pain, and the heads and bodies of some of them began to swell and shake..
“Did you really think that if you fought without any selflessness, united with one mind and purpose, and prepared to die??
A woman on a camel asked with all the sincerity. At the same time, some of the paladins broke out like pimples..
The sound of a huge hot, wet boil exploding echoed in the air, and the faces of the other Paladins were smeared with red blood and flesh..
“Hehehe······!!”
All of the paladins who confirmed this lost their sanity and let out screams that were more animal-like than human, and then a huge light moved..
“If that's the case, a little bit······.”
A woman riding a camel was holding high in the sky a staff containing all the sacred laws of the world..
With the movement of the wand, all the air in the surrounding area as well as in Seonghwang City gathered at one point, forming an air current..
The flow of air changed according to the movement of a huge mass, and when the mass of air gathered to its limit, the woman on the camel finished speaking..
“It's unpleasant.”
At the same time, the woman riding the camel struck the staff with the Holy Law on the ground..
With the movement of the wand, the air condensed to its limit exploded, blowing away all the people around it..
Except for two people.
Joanna and Kevin.
As soon as the two saw the movement of the staff, they activated the power of the Precious Blood and Archives to not only fix themselves in place, but also try to block the woman on the camel..
Because I instinctively knew what would happen the moment the stick touched the ground..
It was going to fly. The entire state of Seonghwang would be completely blown away by the vast Holy Law..
But I couldn't stop it.
The gust created by the staff with all the Holy Laws of the world united was different from the normal gusts, and not only pushed away not only Joanna, who had absorbed the Holy Blood, but also Kevin's space magic, which had become an archive..
Nevertheless, for different reasons, the two did not give up and moved forward, and at that moment, they heard a familiar voice behind them that they had not heard in a very long time..
“Excuse me.”
Oliver's voice.
Oliver came up behind Kevin and Joanna, passed them by, and walked forward normally..
Jeez. Jeez. Jeopuk.
Leisurely, as if you were in a different time zone..
Oliver approached the woman on the camel alone and held out the quarter staff in one hand to block the staff of the woman on the camel who was trying to hit the ground..
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━!
***
When the cane and quarter staff collided, an indescribable sound rang out..
It's so loud that you can't hear anything.
All I could hear was a faint, inaudible beeping sound, and even the gust of wind created by the cane disappeared like a lie..
All that remains is silence and tranquility.
However, when everyone was caught off guard by that sight, a faint shock wave that tore through the air spread out in the shape of a sphere and violently pushed the people around..
That included not only the Holy Knight who lost his Holy Spirit and was blown away by a gust of wind and was unable to control himself, but also Kevin and Joanna..
Joanna and Kevin, who were surprised to see Oliver moving for the first time, were swept away by the abnormal shock wave caused by the cane and quarter staff and rolled around on the floor..
Even though they were beaten pretty hard, they didn't care and turned their heads towards Oliver..
I'm more curious about Oliver's intentions than the pain in his body..
Fortunately, the two were able to hear the conversation between Oliver and the woman on the camel..
[Can you ask what this means? You are a precious being..]
The woman on the camel said, giving strength to the hands made up of the nuns' arms..
I could feel its power indirectly through the tremors of the air, but even so, the staff made of sacred law did not move at all..
Blocked by the quarter staff held out by Oliver.
Everyone was looking at the scene, and among them, Oliver opened his mouth..
“You said you came to retrieve the sacred law, right? In public.”
[······Yes, noble being.]
“But you said you came to see me in private.?”
[yes······. He also said he would make it easier for you if you wanted..]
“Could you please ask me something else??”
Oliver asked as if he had been waiting..
A rare emotion such as surprise and unexpectedness flashed in the eyes of the woman riding the camel..
Oliver's question confused even the devil. The woman on the camel asked.
[What is it??]
“Could you please go back like this? Haven't you already finished your official work??”
Oliver looked at the staff where the holy laws of the world were gathered together..
The staff is blocked by the quarter staff and does not move at all..
At that moment, something strange happened to the staff..
The cane, which was in perfect balance with the quarter staff, began to tremble and slightly pressed the quarter staff..
Oliver also applied strength to the quarter staff accordingly, balancing the forces of the quarter staff and cane as if they were playing tug of war, until they were perfectly facing each other..
A bead of sweat rolled down Oliver's forehead..
Looking at the sweat, the woman on the camel asked:.
[Now why are you doing this? Didn’t you want to give up everything and rest??]
“It's still the same now.”
[That's such a contradictory statement. The person who wants to rest is blocking my path..]
“Don't you like contradictions??”
[······.]
“And that is what I hope for now. yet······. There's still something I want to check. So, can you please step away from this??”
Oliver asked..
For the sake of the people who don't want to be involved anymore, can't the devil just stop and leave?.
The devil with Sister Della's face thought for a while and answered..
[It's definitely not wrong. I've almost completed my mission..]
“almost······?”
[I've retrieved it, but I haven't taken it with me yet. So my mission isn't over yet..]
The woman riding the camel spoke through telephonic sound. She decides where her mission ends. What she says now is that she was no different from him.
[One, I don't want to just leave. It's a little unpleasant.]
A woman riding a camel glanced at the surrounding paladins..
The arrogant paladins who attacked him with the goal of victory.
“Can you please please??”
[Hehe... It somehow feels similar to back then. When you meet the burned man.]
“······.”
[You asked for it back then too. Please do not burn the city that was built with the blood of the red man..]
“Yes, and He listened.”
[that's right. Originally, we were going to burn it all down, but we only burned a quarter of it. That's a huge concession. Well, even though he acts strict on the outside, he is quite kind on the inside..]
Wow. The hands of the woman riding the camel were strong..
[But not me. Even if you love a puppy, if the dog seriously barges its teeth, you will have to scold it to lose its temper. That's a noble thing, even if it's your request, it's no different..]
Wow. The staff of the woman on the camel slowly pushed Oliver's quarter staff away..
The power of the woman riding the camel gradually surpassed Oliver's..
Oliver also strengthened his arm in response, but it was not enough to completely block it..
“Is that so?”
[Although I like you, there is a limit to the requests I can grant as simple favors. I apologize for being rude, but although you are an honorable being and a person I like personally, you have no right to give me orders..]
The words the woman on the camel said passed by my ears..
There are people who feel sorry for Oliver, there are people who admire him, and there are those who like him, but there are those who do not acknowledge him separately..
The lover riding the camel seemed to belong to the third group, as he said. I like Oliver, but I'm not admitting that I do..
However, Oliver showed no reaction. Sadness, regret, and even disappointment.
Because he was really just asking for it. I didn't particularly want to receive the devil's approval..
“Then I can't help it..”
[I'm sorry if I disappoint you..]
“I'm not disappointed. It was just a request.”
[So, what are you going to do now??]
“You have no choice but to go back..”
[yes?]
In response to the incomprehensible answer, the woman on the camel asked.
Fortunately and unfortunately, she soon understood what that meant. Oliver twists the quarter star and throws it out..
“crumble.”
With those words, the sacred law in the hand of the woman on the camel shattered..
