I can see the Emperor's stats-Chapter 163
Purifier
Wheein!
A mountain range with countless bizarre rocks! Between them, a black figure was galloping at high speed.
chin!
While speeding through the steep mountains, he stopped in front of a building before he knew it.
This remote area, called the Cheonsan Mountain Range, was treated as a kind of forbidden place among the Murim people.
The reason is this.
“Vice-teacher! Are you back?”
“I ask for a meeting with the headmaster.”
A low, muddy voice came out of Inyoung's mouth.
After a while he was ushered into a room. On one side of the room, there was a juryeom, and behind it, a person's shadow was slightly visible.
“Meet the great Protestant leader.”
"hmm… … .”
The voice that came from inside the juryeom was low and full of dignity.
“Doesn’t everything go well?”
“I apologize!”
Gung Jeok-yeong, an absolute master called the Ice Flame Sword Demon in the Demonic Cult, bowed his head deeply. Even in her school, there was only one opponent she bowed her head to, as she was second in rank.
The person behind Joo-ryeom is the head of the Demonic Cult!
“You said you lost your confidence?”
“… … .”
Goong Jeok-young kept his head down and did not move. She claims that she is her viceroy, but her actual authority is not very strong. If she had the power of the leader, it would be easy to hold her responsible for her failure and slit her throat.
"The reason is?"
“There was a master on Jeong Do-maeng’s side that I couldn’t match.”
“I guess so.”
“… … !?”
Gung Jeok-yeong stood out in his eyes. There weren't many masters in her martial arts who could beat her. But did the religious leader even know in advance that she would lose?
"It's okay that the Yin-Yang Twin Demons were wiped out, that kind of power can be raised again."
Up to this point, the teacher's tone was soft. The second strongest armed group in the Demonic Cult, the Yin-Yang Twin Demons, doesn't seem to care.
“However, not being able to obtain the Shinki is a painful loss in its own way.”
“I have no face.”
Gung Jeok-young had to bow his head again. Contrary to the bloody rumors known to the world, the leader was not so cruel. Rather, to put it mildly, he had a soft personality.
Reprimanding her this much meant that the headmaster was not in a good mood, so she couldn't help but be very nervous.
But what came next was not a punishment or a reprimand.
“I’ll give you number 1.”
"yes?"
"If you've done something wrong, I'll give you a chance to make up for it."
The priest spoke his last words again in a calm tone. Hearing that, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide.
“I will give you an order later. Take No. 1 to the imperial palace.”
'Imperial Palace!'
* * *
The day the imperial envoy was sent back after giving such a definite answer. Julius was preoccupied with solving one problem.
'I locked it up for now, but how should I deal with it?'
That is what he meant by the faithfulness of the leader of the Jeongdo Order, which is still trapped in the ice.
No matter how half-stopped his biological activities were, he was still a living human being. If you keep locking it in ice, it will soon stop breathing.
'That's why I know I'm being manipulated, but I can't release it.'
Originally, I thought that if I locked it up, something would come out, and there was a good reason for that. Zhuge Nebula, who worked together, said:
“If the leader is being manipulated by demons, it can be healed sufficiently if an unwritten master blows his inner energy.”
Originally, the internal gong of Buddhist scriptures such as Shaolin Temple had the effect of driving away the aura of Saihan. Coincidentally, isn't Master Jiu, the best master of Shaolin, also in Meng?
So I thawed it half way and handed it to him, and this answer came out.
“Namu Amitabha… I'm sorry I can't be of any help. I can't save the leader with this ugly ability.”
“… … !?”
Master Jiu explained the reason with a really embarrassed expression.
“Unidentified aura is mixed with demonic energy, driving out the power of the poor.”
"her… … .”
The reason for this was the divine spirit of Suzaku, which Shin Sung-seong had in his body. Its energy is mixed with demonic energy, so it cannot be healed with the power of Buddhist scriptures.
'In that case, wouldn't it be better to take out the sacred god first?'
I thought about this, but to no avail.
[The reason why that old man is still alive is because of the heat emitted by the sacred spirit. If I take out the sacred weapon right now, I'll freeze to death right away?]
Because of the Yellow Dragon's words, Julius was put in a situation where he couldn't do anything. It was because Jeong Do-maeng's people were treating him as a savior who came down from heaven.
“If it's Julius Daehyeop, you'll save the lord somehow! Didn't he keep you down like that as evidence?”
Because he was receiving such admiring glances, Julius dared to say, 'I need a sacred instrument, so whether or not that old man dies, I'll take it out!' it can't do this
'That's right... … .'
As Julius continued to ponder, the time passed into night. He moved his steps towards his meeting room and stopped in front of a large pillar of ice.
It's late at night, so not a single ant can be seen around. He sighed and tapped his ice.
'I have to leave for the imperial palace soon, but what to do with this trouble... … .'
However, there was no way to come up with a sharp number by thinking about it.
'In the worst case, I'll have to kill them to get them out.'
slippery
“… … !?”
When you finally get to that point! Julius turned his head away. An unidentified sign was caught in his senses.
“Who are you?”
“You seem to be in trouble.”
“… … !?”
What caught his eye was an old man with white hair. Even his senses did not notice the old man until he came this close.
But that wasn't the reason why Julius was so surprised.
'Where did such a monstrous old man appear?'
It wasn't just by looking at the old man's stats. Julius' senses were telling him. The gray-haired old man was stronger than anyone Julius had ever met.
Even his greatest enemy, the Grand Duke, seems to have to give up on the old man.
“… … .”
Bubbly.
The old man slowly walked towards Julius and reached the front of the ice pillar. Then he suddenly stretched out his hand to the pillar.
Hwareuk!
The old man's hands were covered in red flames. However, at a glance, Julius could tell that it was not flame.
'Church of Mars!'
I heard that the Paladins of the Church of Mars, one of the three major churches of the continent, use the holy power of burning red flames instead of the force that emits blue light.
However, the phenomenon that occurred in the hands of the old man did not end there.
Wow!
The red flame gradually faded and turned into a dazzling white. The old man plunged his burning white hand into the pillar of ice.
The hard ice cracks like butter and your hand goes in.
"for a moment!"
It would be difficult if the ice melted now. However, unexpected words came out of the old man's mouth.
“The things you worry about won’t happen.”
"her?"
Before he knew it, the old man's hand was buried in the ice up to his forearm. And the pure white flame rising from that hand emitted a dazzling light.
Aaaaaaa!
Suddenly, a dazzling light burst out, and the surroundings of the conference room became as bright as daylight. And Julius opened his eyes wide as he watched the phenomenon that was happening inside.
"This?"
On the other hand, there was no way that the masters of Jeong Do-maeng could not recognize the light, which was clearly discernible even from a distance.
"what?"
“What else?”
wheein!
chin!
Soon, dozens of masters landed on the conference room floor again. Then, he hurriedly ran towards where Julius was standing.
“Great Coercion!”
“What are you doing?”
"omg!"
They all focused their eyes on Julius' arms.
“Lord!”
Shin Seong, the leader, who had been trapped in the ice, had passed out in the arms of Julius before he knew it.
“Could this be?”
Master Jiu was looking at Julius with a rare surprised expression.
“As you can guess… It seems that you have deciphered the demonic energy that consumed this person.”
Upon hearing that answer, everyone in Jeong Do-maeng erupted in exclamation.
“You seem to have succeeded.”
“Daehyeop is a great benefactor to Jeong Do-maeng!”
Although Shin Seong was manipulated by the Demonic Cult and caused a major incident, there was no doubt that he was the leader respected by everyone. Originally, Jeong Do-maeng's masters were looking at him with admiration, but now it seemed that they would reach the level of worship beyond that.
However, Julius was smiling bitterly.
“First, why don’t we move this person to a warmer place? It seemed that his body was very weak.”
"All right."
They embraced the body of Shin Seong, who was cold, and hurriedly went to call a doctor.
Watching that scene, Julius was thinking of the old man who had just appeared.
“… … .”
* * *
Wow!
The white burning hands of the old man instantly melted the ice and covered even the body of the believer.
“… … !?”
Julius, who saw the phenomenon at first, tried to stop it, but he couldn't help but be frightened when he saw the stat window of the divine nature coming into his eyes.
'Has the demonic energy that consumed the author's body been detoxified?'
But it's also a moment to be surprised
"what!"
“It’s the conference room!”
Hearing the sound of Jeong Do-maeng's people running, the old man put on a slightly regretful expression.
“You must have a lot of questions, but there are too many people today. I will formally greet you tomorrow.”
Seruk.
After saying that, the old man disappeared from the spot like a ghost.
For a while, Julius stared at the spot where the old man had disappeared without a word.
'What was the intention of the person from the Holy Land? And why did you save the leader?'
* * *
next day.
"majesty! The second party from the fleet has arrived.”
"is it?"
Julius ordered Goo Cheon-geol to bring people to prove his identity. However, in order to come as quickly as possible, only the knights had to come first, and those who remained behind had to come up at a time difference.
And now, a few days have passed since the incident at Jeong Do-maeng. Finally, the number of people who started as a latecomer reached the place where Jeong Do-maeng was.
“Your Highness the Crown Prince! My name is Kernel, and I am in charge of the 1st Fleet.”
“I heard your name. You worked hard to get here.”
“Hwang Gong!”
First of all, I am greeted by the Admiral of the 1st Fleet, Earl Kernell. However, it was not this person that Julius was waiting for. In fact, he had been tipped off since the arrival of the Knights.
After a few formal words of thanks, Julius got to the point.
"Let's hear it. I heard someone from the Holy Land asked to see me?"
"That's right. omg!"
chuck!
Before Count Kernell could even introduce himself, a gray-haired old man strode out from behind.
Julius looked at the old man and twitched his eyebrows.
'It's natural since I checked the stats, but it must be the person I saw yesterday.'
The old man bowed to Julius with his back straight.
“Meet Your Highness, the crown prince of the empire with a great reputation.”
Even in front of the imperial prince, the old man only slightly bowed his head. But no one in the hall, including Kernell, blamed the old man.
Julius also nodded with a friendly face.
“I am honored to see the best superman in the Western Continent.”
“… … .”
Yes, this person is Archbishop Galeus, who is evaluated as the oldest and strongest among the superhumans of the Western Continent!
Even in the Holy Kingdom, his position was directly below the three popes. That is why even Julius, the crown prince of the empire, was in a position where he could not be treated carelessly.
“Excuse me, I have just had an audience with Your Highness, but I have a request.”
He went right into business. It was an attitude that revealed his stark personality.
“Is it blue?”
“Could I request a private meeting in a quiet place?”
Julius also had a lot of things he wanted to ask him. I nod my head willingly.
“It is exactly what I wished for.”
* * *
After a while, they were facing each other in the ruined meeting room where they first met yesterday.
“So why did you apply for private study?”
“Then, with all due respect, I will ask you a question.”
"as you please"
In this situation, there must have been a reason for wanting to see him in the castle. But what came out of Galeus' mouth was an odd question.
“In the world, it is often said that the realm of the unmanned is divided into four. Does His Highness know?”
“… … !?”
Julius was slightly surprised, but opened his mouth.
“Isn’t that common sense? Aren’t level 4 warriors often referred to as superhumans?”
Galeus nodded.
“I just asked because you called me a superman.”
His eyes grew stronger. He stared at Julius with strong eyes and then asked the question again.
“Then, what stage would this old man belong to if divided into those stages?”
Naturally, Galeus was a superman, and would belong to the 4th level. However, Julius burst out laughing.
“What else am I saying”
That laugh made Galeus a little nervous this time.
“… … !?”
And Julius knew the answer he wanted. Julius withdrew his laughter and began to speak with great force, word by word.
“As far as I can see, you have passed level 4! Should I call it step 5?”
“… … .”
“Is my answer wrong?”
chuck!
Julius' answer was correct. Galeus suddenly got down on one knee. It was a reaction that contrasted with the one where he just lowered his head while having an audience with the crown prince.
"hmm?"
Kneeling, Galeus then bowed his head. And a heavy voice bursts out.
“Galeus, the purifier of the holy kingdom, is meeting a divine person!”
