Chapter 87 – A Head for a Head
It ran for days and days. I don’t know how long it ran. You might be able to find out if you ask the goddess.
She is my precious woman, not a watch.
I continued to run, paying attention to the color of the medal.
Damn dag dag dag dag! Rumbling!
Boring atmosphere, boring background, boring yawning, boring stretching, boring time, etc.
Around the time when I wondered if everything was just a nasty nightmare.
All over again! Whoa!
Suddenly the wind blew and shut up. Startled, I looked out the window, got out of the underpass, ran down the rough road for a while, and finally ran down the main street.
Lumina let out her cheers.
“Yah-hoo! Air, air! I like dogs!”
She let out a sigh of relief. Thank god.
‘I ran for a few days and finally came out. The capital will be available soon, right?’
It will be soon if you enter the main street. I glanced back.
Underground, I really hate to go there again. Do you want to feel like that when you go to the army?
“I will live a little now.”
“Uh-huh, I will.”
At the words of her aunt, Aki accepted. She turned her head leisurely out of her window.
It was already early evening. By the time the sun had just gone down and dusk had descended. My back itched at the thought of sleeping in bed for the first time in a while.
‘Didn’t you rather sleep on the roof of the wagon? Like a bohemian gypsy.’
Then she shook her head. It’s just like a free ride beggar. The brute warrior puts the slyness first, whoa.
She ran frantically through the boulevard and finally stopped at the checkpoint in the capital.
‘If you pass here, you will enter the capital!’
The capital of the Dharma Empire, Myra, like its reputation, was filled with people from all directions.
They say all roads lead to Murat. That’s right.
‘But compared to Seoul, Korea, it’s a miracle.’
Seoul is literally a place filled with population compared to land mass. Compared to him, Murat seemed a bit broad.
So is the matrix The procession was similar to a normal restaurant queue.
‘If it were in Seoul, the roads would be very full even if it wasn’t a holiday!’
Wait, what comparison am I making?
Finally our turn. During the inspection, the soldier asked an unexpected question.
“Hey, are you a warrior?”
“To be precise, I am the only warrior.”
At my answer, the guard backed off.
“You, a warrior, spend a day at the checkpoint StayAnd Physical examinationYou can pass by receiving it.”
“Yes? What is it all of a sudden?”
What do you mean? Has the corona gone around? What kind of stay are you inspecting?
Then another guard on the other side tilted his head. It’s like what are you talking about?
“Hey, what are you talking about? Weren’t there any instructions like that?”
“Confidential GuidelinesThere was.”
“What bullshit? Who? Sergeant Ferguson must have said there was such a thing.”
“Anyway, there was. The one above.”
The two guards quarreled.
‘This is something strange. I think one of you is lying. Why would you lie?’
As I pondered, a guard pointed at me saying I needed to be examined.
“Hey, why don’t you crawl out right away? Hero.
This was outright tyranny. Why should I be treated unreasonably like this just because I’m a warrior?
I was going to say something, but there was someone who came out before me.
“My dear, what is your name and who is your boss? Tell me.”
It was my aunt. The guard made an impression.
“You are?”
“The Dharma Empire, an elite class saint and a cold-weather saint, Sharia Kanape.”
She is an aunt who even introduces herself by holding out the crest of a saint. At least this moment was a moment that her aunt tore it up a few times. Her facial expressions, tone of voice, and actions were all tingling.
The guard’s astonishment further distorted her expression.
“Heh, heh… A cold-blooded lady?!”
“I came here for a short tour. Can I do such an absurd inspection? Name your boss immediately. I must answer questions in the name of the saintess.”
An aunt who comes out in earnest. The guard was rather perplexed.
“Oh no! I guess I was mistaken. No problem, pass!”
So we got through. Leaving a bit of an awkward feeling.
By the way, me and the other girls were also surprised.
“Hey, aunt… It’s a jackpot!”
My aunt smiled seductively at my words. Haha, that’s sexy
“Whoops, with something like this.”
That smile that shows the composure of a strong man. Want to have. Aki chuckled.
“Then why are you suddenly stopping the warriors?”
“I wonder if that soldier’s boasting about his sins continued.”
My aunt affirmed my answer.
“I think so. Mentioning the guidelines that weren’t there and trying to interrogate only the hero is suspicious. It’s strange, but I’ve never been like this before.”
It was something she could say because she was an aunt who had lived in the capital for a long time.
It was definitely strange. Why are you doing such an inspection all of a sudden?
‘Even in games, an event like this only appears when there is an epidemic.’
I realized the terribleness of those who recited sins.
“I have to think that the one who recites sins can stretch his hand anywhere.”
A sigh came out. Then she called out to Lumina.
“Lumina, to the nearest inn!”
“Okay. All I have to do is find a sign with a bed and pillow on it, right?”
“Huh!”
The carriage turned slightly. I looked at it and thought about it.
‘James, you’re going to come out like this, right? Do you know who does this because they don’t want to mess around?’
Does this fucker dare to play brain games? In fact, he’s funny even for brain warfare.
‘You bastard, I don’t know your heart, but I know the structure of this world’s pseudo-church!’
I came to the capital and tried to rest for a while. But this guy lights a fire.
Rather good Let’s do it, kid.
‘If you really are a cardinal, there must be other cardinals besides you. You probably won’t be able to get your hands on it. So… I’ll take the lead!’
He licked her lips again and raised her head. I heard Rumina’s voice.
“We’ve arrived at the inn!”
“Okay, thank you!”
Got off the wagon I went to the counter looking forward to tomorrow.
The innkeeper saw us and immediately expressed disapproval.
“Ha, this. There are a lot of warriors these days, so there are only two rooms.”
“Two rooms, please.”
Without hesitation, I ordered two rooms. ‘Cause there’s a lot of money anyway
Snap!
The innkeeper handing over two keys. She took the keys and checked them.
These are the rooms on the third floor.
This inn was a fairly medium-sized inn, with a total of five floors.
‘In the game, sleeping at an inn like this would restore full health and mana.’
I went up to the third floor and looked around. These were the expressions women expected.
What are you expecting?
Lumina asked with mad eyes.
“So, who are you going to sleep with?”
She knew this I’m sorry, but I’m a little serious.
“Sorry, ladies, please use one room. Probably because there are three beds.”
At my words, her aunt glared coldly.
“Why?”
Aki didn’t agree.
“I don’t understand! Why!”
“Ha, everyone. No matter how much I like it, please respect my privacy. I’m the only man I can be sensitive too.”
He gave very rational reasons. Of course, the real reason was different.
The women reluctantly agreed to my answer. Handing her the key, she smiled.
“Then see you tomorrow morning!”
I shouted loudly and went into my room. As soon as I got in, I washed up and lay down on the bed.
The cozy yet heart-pumping feeling that comes from resting after a hard workout came to me.
The darkened ceiling seemed to spin. Outside the window, it was crowded with people making noise.
“Goddess, come out now.”
Tsutsut!
“Did you call me?”
“I want to sleep in the same bed with the goddess. Will you stay by my side?”
The goddess heard me and her face turned red. Then she snorted.
“Hmph, if you beg for help like that, there’s nothing I can’t accept! Got it. The goddess is with you!”
She lay down next to me Added a bit more weight to the bed.
When I was alone, the sense of emptiness felt completely filled. She leaned against her voluptuous body.
‘I am a very happy man. The best in the world!’
She slept like that
＊＊＊
The next morning.
I woke up early on purpose. Washed lightly, skipped meals, and went out. In the meantime, the goddess asked.
〈 Where are you going?〉
‘What an interesting place!’
He answered while fiddling with the necklace hanging around his neck. Yeah, it’s a fucking fun place.
I recalled the geography of the capital in my head. Myra, the capital, was a structure with a river flowing in the middle like Seoul.
The name of the river is Pate. It was divided into East and West by the river.
“Mr. Merchant, let me ask you for directions. Is there a chapel here?”
“Hehe, I know because I worked here for a long time. Is there one or two chapels?”
“Hey, the capital too! There are even many chapels!”
“Oh wow, chapels have popped up all of a sudden these days. It’s not a trend, what. Anyway, most buildings with crosses must be chapels.”
“Thank you!”
The good thing about this appearance is that everyone kindly accepts and responds. You look like Ma Dong-sik. Everyone will be vigilant.
‘Of course, I won’t be ignored or quarreled with.’
First, I decided to explore the surrounding area.
‘No matter how pseudo it is, it is a religious organization in the end. The basic routine is to sit in the chapel and pray.’
I was sure Because it was the same in the game and in the original work, be it sincere or pseudo.
I wandered around for about an hour. Seeing the capital directly with the naked eye gave me a new feeling.
If an augmented reality game comes out, can this degree of reality be realized? See it as unreasonable
‘Because it’s the capital, there are a lot of people and a lot of buildings.’
Thirty chapels I have seen so far. I figured out how many people there were.
‘Then I’ve decided where I’m going.’
Chapels with many people were to be avoided. There was obviously a high possibility that James’ gang was there.
One of the main scenarios in the game was a concept where pseudos started a war.
The cause of this war was that you and I were splitting factions to become bishops, and taking sides.
In other words, this bastard, James, must have a clique. And this guy must have spawned other factions.
Why? This is where people live.
‘It reminds me of when I worked part-time at a cafe. There was a split between the store manager and the owner. I don’t even remember why those bastards fought.’
It must have been for no reason.
Therefore, I had to meet the Cardinal against James.
I went back to the chapel that had the fewest people I had seen earlier. As I entered, I heard believers praying.
“He himself recited our sins, according to the opening of heaven and earth…”

‘This necklace, the way to unlock the next effect seems to be different from that of Dawn.’
What then? Titles suddenly came to mind.
When upgrading a title, you had to pay points. Then what if this?
While struggling, I gently touched the necklace.

Lao, how long has this bastard been with this guy to brainwash so many people?
Even though he was embarrassed again, he smiled. Now this ability is mine. I can do whatever I want!
He approached the most distant believer and placed his hand on her shoulder. Brainwashed The necklace glowed brightly.
“I will ask. What is the name of the cardinal you serve?”
Shindo raised her head. He was a man with a sparse beard.
“Manhee…”
“Manhee?!”
“Many… Cardinal Limani…”
“Okay, guide him.”
As if the brainwashing had worked, Shindo stood up and started guiding them.
Alright, the operation begins!
