Chapter 461 – Power (2)
Increasing abilities does not just affect the body.
Humans are largely divided into two parts: body and mind.
And these two are influenced by each other, becoming better and worse over and over again.
That means that the mind can also achieve great growth by being influenced by the body.
Of course, like Kim Tae-yang, there are times when superior physical growth has a negative impact on the mind.
What matters now is not whether this influence is positive or negative.
I just want to talk about the impact itself.
“… Now it feels very natural to come in.”
Our goddess welcomes me with a bewildering smile as soon as I enter the temple.
God is within me.
The unconscious mind that ordinary humans cannot look into.
It sits there curled up and occasionally calls its followers and shows its glorious face.
But now you don’t have to wait for her call.
The moment I became fully aware of her and focused, I was able to enter where she was.
She asks, sitting on her throne.
“So… “Why did you come here today?”
The reason I visited her was because of her power.
The apostle of patience, the apostle of sloth.
Two apostles like me demonstrated abilities that I did not have.
It is about expressing the unique area where my power is most strongly expressed.
“I’m really so sad.”
“… Sad? What do you mean?”
“Other apostles use the area of patience and the area of negativity, so why can’t I use it?”
When I told her clearly that I was disappointed, she made a dumbfounded expression.
“… Isn’t that because you didn’t fulfill your duties?”
My head naturally tilted at the attitude of asking why I was asking the obvious.
“Duties? What responsibility?”
Did I have something like that?
“What is your position?”
“Apostle.”
“Do you know what that means?”
Sadora.
In the past, Jesus called the twelve disciples he chose to spread the gospel.
Considering that, what a person with the position of apostle must do is…
“Is it your will, or is it to spread the doctrine?”
The goddess, who was sitting in her bored position, stands up and points at me with her index finger.
“That’s it!”
No.
Why are you looking so thrilled when you could just sit there and say the answer is correct?
She shouted with her flushed face, then sat down with her legs crossed and asked.
“As you said, the power of an apostle comes from the goddess. Then, where do you think the power of the goddess that gives you strength comes from?”
Where does the power of God come from? ?
It may seem a little complicated, but there is no way he was asking a question that had nothing to do with the context of the conversation.
That means there is an answer in the conversation we’ve had so far.
It is said that an apostle is someone who widely spreads the doctrine or will of God.
Then, there is one question that arises here.
Why should it be like that?
Why is it necessary for her existence to spread widely and for her followers to increase?
There is an answer.
“As the number of followers increases, your power increases.”
She laughs.
The one I loved the most.
Now with a face that evokes emotions that are hard to fathom.
“That is the correct answer.”
“… “I see.”
I finally understand.
The reason why I don’t have the power that everyone else has.
It was because I didn’t do anything.
At the same time, I became curious.
“… What should I do to increase believers? Just trust the goddess of greed, you can’t.”
“I guess so. But you already know the answer.”
Another question fills my mind.
I know the answer?
“Don’t you have a wonderful tool?”
“… “I have something like that?”
When I asked her in a puzzled tone, she smiled faintly and continued.
“It is the stigma of greed.”
“Ah.”
It comes to mind.
A skill to engrave a unique mark that cannot be erased on the obedient partner, proving that it is mine.
It’s truly embarrassing.
“… Was it useful in that way?”
“Then what on earth were you planning on using it for?”
“Yeah…”
I was just planning to take pictures here and there as proof that she was my girl.
“Surely you weren’t trying to engrave the vulva like that bitch did? Haha… !”
“…”
“Haha…, Ha.”
“Hmm.”
“Ha.”
The goddess’ deep sigh weighed heavily on her heart.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
The stigma of greed.
I learned how to use a skill that I thought was just a sign that she was my woman.
This was a means.
Another means to grow myself other than dungeon raids and training.
So you have to use whatever you can.
In my heart, I want to brand everyone who passes by.
“… The conditions are quite strict.”
In order to be stigmatized, one condition must be met.
It should be none other than the object of obedience to Me.
It’s just one thing, but it’s an extremely difficult condition.
So, for now, only those who met the conditions to be branded were stamped.
Except for Yoon Ji-an, Shin Yu-jeong, and Lim Na-eun, who have already been stigmatized.
The first among them was Jeonghee.
This is how she reacted when I told her that I wanted to engrave a token that she was mine.
“Token… Are you talking about something like a ramen tattoo?”
“That’s right.”
“Where… Are you engraving it on?”
“Right here.”
“Oh… !”
She immediately stretched out her hand and massaged the voluptuous breasts rising above the thin dress that revealed the curves of her body and continued speaking.
“If I were to carve it, it would be under these big breasts.”
“Huh…, The tokens, the location…, I really pervert…”
“So you don’t like it?”
“Oh, no… That’s why I like it better♥”
Jeong-hee quickly adapted to the sudden touch and became excited.
In fact, there may be no need for a stigma.
This is proof that this body itself, which accepts my touch and is immersed in pleasure, is mine.
It was around this time that I unconsciously became addicted to the soft feel of my breasts and kept touching them.
“Ah.”
As if something had occurred to her, she asked me with her eyes shining.
“I wonder if Yujeong has a tattoo that looks like it could be seen under her chest… ?”
“Oh, right. “I engraved it.”
“No wonder…, Every time I suddenly asked what kind of tattoo he had, he said, ‘There’s something like that.’ And laughed unpleasantly!”
Shin Yu-jeong, who knows what the stigma means, seems to have made fun of her mother with it.
“Isn’t it too unfair to engrave it only on Yujeong?”
“… “Then should I engrave it?”
“Engrave it, right now.”
Jeonghee declares with eyes burning with jealousy.
In this way, another believer increased.
* * *
Starting with Jeonghee, Kim Dojin engraved two more stigmas.
The subjects are Elena and Eunbi Kim.
Kim Eun-bi, who was already in love with Kim Do-jin, readily accepted it, but Elena faced difficulties.
Because of the vow of chastity, kissing was the only activity, so in a way, it was natural.
But Kim Do-jin did it.
– “Elena, that’s why I feel more anxious. “I wish you were mine forever, but I guess not.”
-“Ah, Puppy…
-” Can you give me permission? “I want to engrave my mark on your body.”
-“Great… ♥“
The total number of believers with this stigma was six.
Compared to the number of brainwashed people who follow the God of Sloth or the number of people who truly follow Angela, the number is truly shabby.
However, in the process, Kim Do-jin felt a change in his power.
Since the number was so small, it was a slight change that should not have been felt.
However, even this was sensitive to Kim Do-jin’s extraordinary talent.
And through this she realized.
What must happen for the gluttony of power given to him to become stronger.
‘A mouth to devour, teeth to chew, and a tongue.’
Strengthening the idea by giving a concrete form to the energy that is just fluttering around.
“Ugh… !”
And so it was completed.
The mouth of a ravenous glutton that devours everything it faces.
And it is currently devouring the opponent’s power.
“What is this…” Wow! “
Myeong-ho Yoon is struggling with all kinds of restraints hanging from him.
The power contained in the heart is being pulled out.
And at a very fast pace.
“Stop, stop, stop!”
It is thanks to this power that he has been able to live a decent life until now.
The power granted by the voice of a very languid person who introduced himself as Sloth.
This was the past that made him who he is today, and at the same time, it was also the future that made him dream of taking a leap forward.
Even though it was the worst prison in history, he still did not give up.
It is also a place managed by humans.
If there was even the slightest gap, they planned to squeeze in and raise their forces again.
But that plan went awry.
No, my whole life was pushed to the brink of ending.
‘If this power disappears, I… !’
The future was obvious when I lost the power that was everything to me.
No, I wonder if there is anything that can be called the future.
Even while I was worrying, the energy that had been building up near my heart was disappearing at a rapid pace.
I don’t know what the principle is.
However, it became clear that if the opponent in front of me wanted it, all my abilities would be taken away.
It’s dark before my eyes.
It is a clear fact that no matter where you step, bad situations will come your way.
But the worst of them is fixed.
He opened his eyes and shouted urgently.
“Fu, I’ll solve it!” “I’m going to release everything, so stop!”
It was a declaration of surrender.
