Chapter 197 – Relic (2)
Sword of Temperance.
If there are 7 deadly sins in the devil, there are 7 main lines in Catholicism.
Each symbolizes humility, charity, kindness, patience, chastity, temperance, and diligence.
If taken purely by force, Temperance is the third strongest in the Vatican.
… And that sword of moderation is guiding me directly to the Vatican Cathedral.
“Oh, this is a chapel. This is a place where believers who believe in God practice their holy power.”
Eldor smiled and said.
The place that Eldor led to was a place where hundreds of people in bridal clothes were praying.
“Oh, hello!”
A low voice was heard. When he turned his head, he saw a familiar face. Lily’s girl, Elise Luna Maria.
Later, as a saint of purity, a girl called the Vatican’s hope against the devil was seen.
“Wow, long time no see! I heard the news. I heard you were rewarded? Congratulations! I heard that the association prepared something for me because I was the youngest. …”
Saying congratulations on their meeting, Elise began chatting with her.
Then Natal, with an expression on her greasy face, was also coming this way.
“You are indeed my rival.”
… Why the hell am I your rival she was tired to ask. Jongwoo Han also considers me a rival, and Tao Lee tends to do the same.
I tried to estimate the power of Ellis or Natal with a more incomprehensible sense.
‘… Is it a septum?’
It is not a complete break.
Because now it’s slowly stepping into the septum. Natal and Elise did not become stronger than expected. Although it is slightly different from the original.
“Come to think of it, what brought you to the Vatican? If you see me…”
“Lee Si-woo came to subdue the Apostle of Sloth and help in catching Sloth the other day.”
When Ellis said something, Eldor hung up. It’s part of catching sloths. She asked for it in case something unexpected happened, but she seems to have accepted it fortunately.
“Then would you like to take the holy relic right away?”
“Can I get it now?”
“Yes. Because the preparation itself is over. But…”
El Dor slurred her tongue.
-All the believers who witnessed the scene where the hero defeated the sloth think that there is no problem even if the hero accepts the holy relic.
Divine order.
Using holy power, Eldor spoke with a spell that could only be heard by me.
-No, most people think that even holy things are not enough.
Like me
With a small murmur, Eldor spoke to me.
-Still, you won’t see an ugly face like the outside. Although they all have different personalities and different backgrounds, their faith and belief in God is in goodness.
Eldor added.
To put it simply, there are people who don’t like my receiving the holy relics. So even if you feel bad, I’m asking you not to think too badly.
I nodded.
The Vatican is a place where faith gathers. The beings at the center of this place cannot invade except for ‘one being’.
And it’s not easy to fall.
‘Though that one person is a problem.’
Still, I think it’s worth rubbing it once now that I’ve risen to a higher rank.
I thought to myself and followed Eldor.
After passing the corridor decorated with colorful glass, a quiet space appeared.
The floor was made of wood, and there was some sort of weaponry, but it was reminiscent of a normal office.
A space where there is no luxury. There he saw a handsome blond man and a boy about Natal’s age.
“… This person?”
Platinum-colored eyes glanced at me in an instant.
I was perplexed, but I made up my mind. Come to think of it, it wouldn’t be strange for a person like him to come to greet me, the youngest person of the highest rank.
A man representing the armed forces of the Vatican.
Humble one, Michelle II.
… Emotion.
▼
Name: Michelle
Strength: 48
Agility: 45
Stamina: 49
Magic attribute: 50
Inherent Ability: Beginning Flame (S+)
Attributes: Divine Element (S++), Judge of Good and Evil (S+), Seeker of Flame (S+), High Priestess (S), Enemy Detect (B) and 7 other types.
I thought it would work, but luckily it worked.
… Anyway, it’s a really cool ability. A judge of good and evil who can maximize the power of an angel with the divine element, the body most similar to that of the first human, and raises all abilities when fighting demons.
And a flame seeker who absorbs all flame-related abilities, magic, and martial arts.
‘And the primordial flame.’
The primordial flame, which is called the power of God, is immense in itself.
Michelle belongs to the weak axis among the highest ranks, but boasts a power equal to that of Kim Eun-jung, the leader among the highest ranks, with one of those sparks from the beginning.
“Than you think.”
Michelle looked at me and opened her mouth.
“It’s so much better. You said that you helped a lot in defeating sloths before you even reached the rank, but did you get stronger while fighting sloths? At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be pushed back much even if I fight Eldor.”
Michelle looks at me with interest.
At Michelle’s words, Eldor opened his eyes and looked at me.
-Are you the one who killed Sloth?
Words that ring in your head.
Michelle looked at me and smiled.
I nodded slightly.
I couldn’t hide it from Michelle in the first place. Seeker of good and evil. Because that characteristic is a characteristic that can determine whether the opponent has a good or evil tendency.
‘And I’m in a state where good karma is accumulated because I gave a decisive blow to catch sloth.’
So, when the demon king is captured, the Vatican gives the protagonist infinite trust.
If Michelle comes so kindly, I think we can borrow one more relic.
-I’m curious what the trick was, but it would be impolite to ask about it. They are colleagues who fight demons together.
‘A colleague.’
I’m embarrassed by Michelle’s favor, but good is good.
“Roland. Bring the relic.”
“… Yes, I understand.”
A boy named Roland went out the door.
“I’m sorry for not serving anything in front of guests. I will bring you oil.”
In the Vatican, there is something called holy milk, which is kind of like an elixir. It’s a mass-produced elixir, so if you’re like me, you won’t be affected by it.
“Thank you.”
I accepted without hesitation.
***
After that, after receiving the Holy Relic from a boy named Roland, I moved to the lodging in the Vatican that Michel had arranged.
‘… It’s worth living here.’
One bed, TV and computer. Seeing that there is a computer, it seems that electricity is also connected.
Compared to a room with a single bed, a drawer, a desk, and a closet, the room where the monks were present seemed to have taken care of the guests.
I took a hand mirror out of my pocket.
It is a holy object I received from the Vatican. Also known as the Mirror of the Wishing One.
Emotion.
========================
The wisher’s mirror
Finds the location of an object the user wants.
Currently, it is sealed with all its might.
========================
The mirror of the wisher is a fairly famous item in the game.
There is a period of half a year, but you can find the item you want once in half a year.
‘… Of course, it’s useless thanks to the kids who learned all the routes from the middle.’
Still, unlike the game, everyone moves differently, so this mirror is quite usable. Because I haven’t memorized all the routes one by one.
‘Then, shall we prepare soon?’
I slowly warmed up.
A year later, the demons gather their strength and attack the Vatican. This is because the holy relics that exist in the Vatican and the power they possess are too lethal to the demons.
The power of the Vatican is stronger than that of any other place. It’s kind of like an elite army.
And the power generated in the Vatican exerts a very lethal force against the demons in a fight with the demons.
Holy power.
Those who use the power of the gods become at least 50% stronger than usual when fighting those infected with demons.
To the extent that even if it was a lower class, it would not be pushed back even if it engaged in a person-to-person battle with a mine that had reached the middle class.
‘Though it doesn’t work on opponents with higher status.’
The story is a bit different from the upper rank, but still, it bothers the demons in that they have an advantage when fighting them.
Among the highest ranks, a humble person who belongs to the middle rank is Kim Eun-jung, who is not pushed back even if he fights with the struggling apostles.
‘That’s why the demons cooperate.’
… It’s okay up to this point. However, it’s a problem because the demons put in an enormous amount of power to take care of the Vatican.
The main axis of the Vatican is Obern, the fairy king, a gluttonous insect, and the red dragon of the Apocalypse, the dragon of arrogance.
‘And what I have to do after coming here is to break the axis of terrorism.’
Break the axis of terror.
And in the process, he gathers information on how to storm the Vatican.
‘If we gather conclusive evidence, we can move Kim Eun-jung and the three kings.’
Be humble, Michelle will move too.
Then let’s go out soon
“Oh, Siwoo-nim! Where are you going?”
On the way out, I met Eldor.
“Yes, I want to go sightseeing for a while.”
“Tourism is good! May I guide you?”
It’s tourism
I looked around. There are no signs of popularity that can be felt around.
“Actually, I received a report that there are demons, so I’m trying to wipe them out.”
“… What a brave act!”
Eldor smiled brightly and said.
“Then may I go with you?”
I nodded.
As Michelle said, the humble sword has the power to compete with me.
“I’m really looking forward to it. Going with the hero to exterminate pests that are too precious to even eat the oxygen of the earth. Is this also the fate that God foretold?”
Eldor, the sword of temperance, laughed as he hummed.
Really bright
