Chapter 187
187Tue bound for USA(2)
Are you the devil or a devil follower??
This is a test of ideology that high-ranking people around the world have recently heard ad nauseam..
An affair scandal broke out Mr. Devil? Are you a devil for taking a bribe? The ruling was a bit strange, you devil.?
Anyway, if you do something, are you a devil? When you hear things like this, you are the second coming of the 21st century commies..
Of course, there were cases where you were really caught, like you were a communist during the 20th century's Cold War..
There is an urban legend that if people report to the Pantheon Demon Suspected Reporting Site, someone will dispose of them after a thorough verification investigation..
Of course, to the administrative heads of each country who run intelligence agencies, this was not just an urban legend..
It is a well-known fact that there are frequent gas explosions, photos of particle weapons bombardment observed from somewhere in space, and the existence of someone leisurely carrying out assassinations despite thorough security posture..
And all those who died like that were suspected of being devils or devil followers..
[dismissal. It is clear that the former director... was a follower of the devil..]
The CIA director of the Antony administration was also found dead at some point, and evidence that he was a follower of the devil was also clearly revealed..
The U.S. government took it easy, but they were very wary of Pantheon's ability to carry out assassinations..
In particular, aren't these ignorant devil-haters in front of you the kind of people who would burn even UN employees at the stake if they were suspected of being devils??
So, is Leon your evil species? When asked, President Hobson could not help but imagine an eerie future..
"Oh, no.."
At the words of President Hobson, who was so embarrassed that his tongue twitched for a moment, Leon patted him on the shoulder and laughed..
"It's a tough world. Oh, I never imagined that that bastard would wear a human mask and play the role of king.."
"Uh, um······."
The end of Taiwanese President Zhao was well known from the CIA report..
They say he was tied up by citizens and burned at the stake..
If this medieval Lion-Hearted King was hung at the stake to see if he was the devil, that alone would be an international disgrace..
'That's all you need to avoid!'
President Hobson spoke desperately while maintaining an awkward smile..
"Me, I believe in God."
"Ah, are you a Christian? You are a great man who gave your only begotten son.."
President Hobson looked surprised at those words. I thought he was a fanatic who prioritized only the doctrine of the pantheon, but his attitude toward other religions was more conciliatory than expected..
Well, if he were a fanatic who only believed in his own god, he wouldn't have paid homage to Meriel, the goddess of fate..
"Haha, I'm not a devil or a follower of the devil.."
President Hobson tried to pass this off as a simple joke. But it wasn't Leon.
"To commemorate meeting the President of the United States, I would like to pray to the God of War, and I hope you will be happy to receive my congratulatory address.."
"yes? no, sleep──"
It was that moment. Leon recited a prayer and immediately sparked a fire..
The sacred flame of the war god Fethos. It is a well-known fact that it is a flame of extinction that burns even the soul..
"Yes, sir!"
The SPs were scared and took out their pistols, but the fire had already engulfed the area..
-Wow!!
-Suddenly a spark!
The startled crowd and cameramen retreated, but no images were taken of the president burning away..
President Anthony Hobson was not an evil species or part of a group of evil, so he was unaffected by the flames of Fethos..
"Uh, uhh···."
However, President Hobson is embarrassed by the fact that his body was on fire just moments ago. Leon grinned and tapped his shoulder..
"How can you be so embarrassed? All I'm saying is that I wish you the blessings of the gods.."
"ha ha ha······."
President Hobson felt a chill go down his spine as he realized that if Leon had been a follower of the devil, he would have burned him to death on the spot..
I wonder if I am once again grateful that I was a devout Christian..
"How cruel! How dare you draw a weapon in the king's presence?!"
Lord Raihar shouted at the SPs who had their guns drawn. Leon tries to stop him.
"Well, they are courageous people who risk their lives to protect their king. Don't criticize me too much."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
I risked my life. In other words, Leon and the knights of the pantheon were in a position to kill them at any time..
'That's a lot of confidence.'
Does this mean that a person who receives the blessings of the gods and calls himself their representative is confident enough to go to war with the great power of the United States?.
I was about to get dizzy thinking about what would have happened to America if he had been a follower of the devil and had burned to death here.──
-Wow!!
A terrible scream coming from somewhere. It happened at a gathering of reporters..
"What, what?!"
"It's the devil! It's the devil!"
The flames created by Leon while congratulating President Hobson spread everywhere and burned several people. And their true form was revealed, and they were revealed to be demons..
"Oh my. As expected, the evil species are everywhere, and they hide themselves in a despicable way.."
"······."
President Hobson looked at the devil and his followers dying, their souls dying, and thought that he would never have anything to do with the devil..
And on the other hand.
American magic tower owner Raynald Shellman and the Jewel of Wisdom were watching this meeting on TV..
-It's a good thing I didn't go to Sea Bar······.
"You are truly wise.······."
The magic tower lord Raynald Shellman and the Great Demon of Wisdom, Gob, breathed a sigh of relief and survived today.!

[His Majesty Lionheart Leon Dragonia Lionheart makes a surprise visit to the United States.]
[The largest ever mobilization of security personnel. The Hobson administration wholeheartedly welcomes the pantheon..]
[Demon followers discovered at the welcome hall. Is America Safe From Demons??]
[Korean pantheon and allies. Leading the largest military force in history, they visit the United States one after another. There were no borders in the face of the gate crisis.!]
[President Hobson's diplomatic achievements that emphasized the strengthening and solidarity of the U.S.-ROK alliance.]
The articles that had been pouring in before Leon's visit heated up the Internet and TV news to the extent that they could be considered bombs after Leon arrived..
Some criticized Leon's visit to the United States, saying it would undermine democracy and accelerate the expansion of heretical religions, but most welcomed the pantheon that came to help attack the Black Gate..
-Wow! His Majesty the Lionheart King!
-Please take a look here!
Wherever he went, Leon was met with enthusiastic crowds, but the welcoming crowd in the United States was amazing..
The road from Washington Dulles International Airport to the White House. Traffic was controlled in the area, and a downtown parade with President Hobson took place..
Leon and President Hobson headed to the White House together in the same vehicle, waving to citizens, and stopped at famous restaurants and tourist attractions in the city center of the White House to take pictures with President Hobson..
"Huh~ Aren’t you tired? It's been a long time since you visited, but I think you've been doing too much political work.."
Although he asked for understanding in advance and made a schedule, President Hobson was worried that Leon might be offended..
This is because there have been cases of American pantheon believers and children who broke through the security guard's blockade and committed unexpected actions..
The number of security personnel was the largest ever, but the passionate response from Pantheon believers in the United States was beyond imagination..
"It's okay. Naturally, the people do not have many opportunities to have an audience with the royal family. It's natural for them to look up to the royal family and want to be close to them.."
President Hobson had met Queen Victoria of England and presidents and royals from around the world, but this was the first time that he had shown such royal dignity..
Absolute monarch of another world's monarchy. A party to the divine right of kings theory who confidently claims that he or she has become king through the authority of God..
Even the kings of the theocratic countries of the Middle East have such an innate sense of being the chosen people that they should be considered quasi-royalty compared to Leon..
What is truly scary is that this royal family truly represents the gods and has their authority recognized..
'Clearly he is the antithesis of democracy..'
The U.S. government believed that Korea would soon be swallowed up by the pantheon..
Their democracy is healthy, but the existence of the pantheon itself is too much of a cheat..
A demi-god who is protected by the gods and blessed by the gods..
Not only that, but what has been revealed so far is that one cannot even become a government official, let alone a king, unless one possesses nobility and pure whiteness..
A Korean member of the National Assembly claimed to be a believer in the pantheon for his own political performance, but was struck by lightning and became a eunuch..
Right now we can't oppose the pantheon because of the presence of demons, but when it's all said and done······.
'Can humanity truly oppose the Pantheon and Lionheart??'
As the protector of democracy and the President of the United States, President Hobson could not help but fall into agony. It was too late to just deny it because goddesses from another world already existed in America..
"President Hobson. Where is Goddess Meriel??"
"He is waiting for you at the White House.."
Not long ago, the U.S. government personally dispatched the goddess Meriel to make a bold proposal to the pantheon..
And today, when the Pantheon asks for support with the emergence of the Black Gate, an unofficial letter from the Goddess Meriel summons Leon to this position..
'What is it??'
President Hobson was curious about the contents, but seeing Leon arrive in America and look for Goddess Meriel, he can only assume that the Goddess' help was great..
The reception room in the White House we visited under the guidance of President Hobson. Leon saw his platinum-haired goddess waiting for him there..
"Meet the Goddess of Fate."
Leon walked up to her and bent down on one knee. Goddess Meriel happily accepted this and offered her hand..
"How have you been, King Leon? So she met me again so soon."
Leon kissed the back of the goddess' hand and looked up..
"It's still me. I'm glad the goddess is okay too.."
"I'm just grateful that you treat a god you don't believe in so kindly. May the gods of the pantheon also bless you with fate.."
Accordingly, the gods of the pantheon each greeted the gods of other worlds. They felt sympathy and sympathy for the goddess of fate who, like them, had lost the world and had become a wanderer..
They had a great agent named Leon, but Goddess Meriel did not even have one, so she was forced to sell her abilities to humans..
[However, before that, I must clarify what you conveyed in your letter. Is it true what I wrote about the only daughter in my article??]
Goddess Ariana has known my knight's suffering for a very long time..
Even though Leon served the gods for so long, the gods were unable to fulfill it, and left a debt to the gods..
Grand Duke Carina Dragonia.
Meriel mentioned her fate in her own letter..
"Yes, I read The Fate of King Leon, but I couldn't intervene. However, King Leon was able to intervene in the fate of the person he most desperately wanted.."
[Is that Karina?.]
The goddess of fate is a mortal being. She lost her believers and escaped from her own world and came to Earth..
Her status was by no means low, but she could not intervene in the fate of a being with godhood..
"Carina Dragonia. she is in danger."
"······!"
Leon’s eyes widened. She had suspected that Karina might not be alive, but the testimony of her goddess convinced her that she was alive, and she was also worried that her crisis had come to her..
"Karina...! where is the child!"
[My knight. Calm down.]
On rare occasions when Leon got excited, Ariana calmed him down..
"Rather than that. First, can you tell me something about her? I'll tell you what I saw later.."
Meriel demands information before sharing what she saw. The answer was Ventasis, the god of darkness and vengeance..
[Carina Dragonia. The Holy Grail Knight of Vengeance who signed a contract with me battled the Demon Prince of Desire to achieve his revenge..]
It was the time before the decisive battle with Karakael, the Lord of Wisdom..
The Northern Army's withdrawal from the Union and the Grand Duchy's advance. The 30,000-man northern army headed towards the place where the demon archduke's legion lurked, having been destroyed for a long time..
[However, Karina Dragonia disappeared from there. Many of the Avengers I signed with disappeared that day..]
[Just like when I was the Holy Grail Knight of Life and Abundance..]
Demera responded to Fetus' words with a bitter voice..
[Like Geobrick or Vulcan, even the whereabouts of the soul could not be known due to the tricks of the devil..]
The gods and Leon had been deducing that Karina Dragonia would also be in a similar situation..
"okay. Still... you guys are very lucky. Even the souls of believers could be taken away.."
"······."
Leon guessed the feelings of Goddess Meriel, who had sad eyes..
She is also a benevolent goddess who loves children. In her world, there was no one like her, who held her pantheon and paradise in her heart and protected it for hundreds of years..
The heart of the goddess who lost her followers and the children she had cherished throughout history must be so painful that it breaks..
The Goddess of Fate took a moment to compose herself and gave Leon the answer he had been waiting for..
"Carina Dragonia. She exists beyond the black gate that opens this time. And what can save her──"
It was only her father, Leon, the goddess said, the fate she had read..
