Chapter 61 – Heavenly Demon Goddess (1)
‘Stupid idiot.’
Midsummer let out a deep sigh.
It’s like this every time.
It has already been several years since I lived with Kim Mu-gong.
Midsummer knew what Kim Mu-gong was thinking when he said that.
Although he gets scolded every time, Midsummer is not an idiot.
In terms of insight into people, it was rather sharp.
No matter how much he tries to stop him, Mu-gong Kim will not stop his self-destructive act of going into the fire with a brush.
Midsummer, as long as she herself exists in this world.
A noble life, risking her life and sacrificing for others.
Words are good
To those who don’t know her, she’s a great righteous person, but to people close to her, like her family, it’s no different than a curse.
Even if it’s for her sake.
How could she just be happy?
“Me….”
“Shh.”
Kim Mu-gong, who was trying to open his mouth with a heavy face, put his index finger on his lips to block them. Whatever the answer, she’ll be forced to squeeze it out for now.
“Later, when it’s sorted out.”
Faced with slightly trembling eyes, Midsummer spat out quietly. Mugong Kim nodded her head contemptuously.
“Let’s get up.”
Having robbed her seat first, Midsummer stood up. It was a much more relaxed expression than before.
There are things in the world that you know without saying anything.
And there are things that need to be said.
Even though I refused to answer right away, I felt much more comfortable after being honest.
And.
If you can’t stop Kim Mu-gong’s rampage anyway, the conclusion is fixed.
‘I need force.’
Overwhelming force.
Even if Kim Moo-gong ran out of control without a countermeasure, it was a military force that could forcibly block it from the side.
Holding tightly to Kim Mu-gong’s hand, Midsummer quietly made up his mind alone.
***
Time flew by.
After returning from Okinawa.
As usual, I practice and study.
Finally, the written evaluation was completed.
The grades were… Not so good.
Concentrating on training, I crammed in writing, so it was definitely impossible to get to the top level.
Still, it received a high score in the uninhabited island evaluation and achieved a satisfactory level.
Let’s leave the exact score blank.
So, we had summer vacation.
“The Heavenly Demon Church.”
Midsummer looked in her hand mirror and applied her lip balm. Her nervousness must have made her lips dry.
“What are you so nervous about?”
“It’s the first time in this world.”
“Anyway, our back boat is Cheon Ha-yeon, so what?”
“It’s okay, but isn’t the Protestant Church a normal place?”
“That’s a glitch.”
Erosion Response Special Self-Governing Province Jeju.
This was the official name of Jeju designated by the Republic of Korea.
As for why the erosion response was added in front, it was simple.
Because the headquarters of the Cheonma Shinkyo was in Jeju.
What is it? You could ask, but the Heavenly Demon Goddess was by no means a general group.
Although it was 10 years ago, even at this point, Jeju was already the same as the Empire of the Heavenly Demons.
You can call it an empire with just one island, but the Chunma Shinkyo officially holds ‘overseas territories’.
It is also much wider than the Korean peninsula.
A military base, of course.
Numerous countries around the world ceded their territories to the Heavenly Demon Goddess and received security support instead.
Currently, Cheonma Shinkyo has been doing a lot of work worldwide to respond to the Gate incident and world erosion.
Group stronger than the state. The title of the strongest single force was not given for nothing.
“Are you ready?”
Cheon Ha-yeon came over with a soft smile.
“We are done.”
He said as he lifted the suitcase full of luggage. Perhaps this time, there was a high possibility of staying in Jeju Island throughout the summer vacation.
Opportunities to go to Cheonma Shinkyo aren’t common, but it was too disappointing to rush back after only doing errands. Stay as long as you can.
“Then let’s go.”
Behind Cheon Ha-yeon, black people appeared without a trace. Some of them looked at me and bobbed their heads slightly. It was the Muheun Mayoung I saw during the vampire incident. I also bowed my head in response.
[Are these people you know?]
Midsummer tilted her head and asked.
[Reception Committee under the direct control of the minor teacher, Ma Young Sura University Muheun Ma Young.]
[Oh, those people?]
[OK.]
[Somehow, it seems strong.]
We took a car sent by Cheonma Shinkyo and headed to the 25th Special Mission Wing in Seongnam.
[This is not Incheon Airport?]
[I guess so.]
The schedule was entirely left to Chun Ha-yeon, so I didn’t know the exact details.
While being saluted by the soldiers, we went all the way into the runway.
[Did Protestantism have anything to do with the Korean government? Isn’t it the Magic Cult?]
[The Demonic Cult is an acronym for the political faction. From the perspective of the South Korean government, this guy and that guy all look like gangster gangsters. In modern times, Protestants do not go around messing around with civilians.]
Gangsters who can’t be controlled because of overwhelming force.
However, they were indispensable beings.
It was because the cooperation of other unmanned people was essential to prevent the Gate incident and capture the uncontrolled unmanned people.
[I guess so. After all, the political faction and Protestantism are inviolable.]
[OK. Still, I didn’t know that I could use the military airport freely.]
We landed near the runway we had seen before.
On the runway where the ZV-22 was parked when heading for North Korea, there was a huge plane with parts painted in black symbolizing Protestantism.
Under the guidance of Muheun Mayoung, I boarded the plane naturally.
“Wow….”
Midsummer looked inside and opened her mouth in a daze. The academy-only plane was also splendid, but this one was on a completely different level.
“Is this really gold?”
Looking at the golden decorations inside, Midsummer muttered to herself.
“Of course it is real gold.”
The answer came straight from behind. Turning her head, there was an old man standing there with wrinkles on her. He was an impressive old gentleman in a neatly dressed black suit.
“Long time no see. Noya.”
Cheon Ha-yeon greeted me with a wink. I didn’t know who it was, but Han Yeo-reum and I naturally embraced the old man. To the extent that Cheon Ha-yeon calls her ‘Noya’, she was by no means an ordinary person.
First of all, it’s a master.
That’s on a level I can’t even fathom.
Hwagyeong was unconditionally confirmed, and there was even a possibility that it was Hyungyeong.
I never imagined that a master like this would come out to meet me.
“Heh heh, it’s Noya. Now, even the young schoolmaster is on terms, so please speak comfortably.”
“Could that be? As I said before, this is Kim Mu-gong, a midsummer cadet.”
“The young schoolmaster is putting gold on the old lady’s face. Nice to meet you It’s a statue of Dancheon.”
Dan Cheon Sang. I just couldn’t remember the name.
“Noya is the Taesanghobeop of Shingo.”
Cheon Ha-yeon elaborated. When I asked why I couldn’t remember, it was understandable. If it was Tae Sang-ho, he was a person from the previous era.
After 10 years, it’s been quite some time since even the ‘current leader’ didn’t show up.
Of course, Tae Sang-ho’s name was hard to hear.
“It’s just a trivial name. Come on, don’t do that, sit down.”
Dan Cheon-sang gestured toward the wide table in the middle.
As soon as I sat down, the plane took off right away.
Since all the people on board were unmanned, there was no separate procedure such as forcing them to wear seatbelts during take-off.
Or maybe Protestantism is just tough.
“You’ve become devoted while I couldn’t see you.”
Dan Cheon-sang looked at Cheon Ha-yeon with a satisfied face. It was similar to the gaze of a grown-up grandson.
“There are still many deficiencies. I didn’t know that Noya would come in person. Father… Was it the headmaster’s request?”
“Heh heh, I asked directly because the young schoolmaster was coming. Seeing only old people in the Presbyterian House made me sick. Everyone hurts somewhere, somewhere hurts. I’m tired of hearing noblemen who should be old enough to die, and who should be fine for decades, cry like this.”
“Everyone seems to be in good health. Fortunately, the.”
Cheon Ha-yeon covered her mouth and laughed. He has the appearance of a man, but he thinks he smiles like that.
“It’s been a little over a year since I met the young master, right? Did something special happen in the meantime?”
“Yes. Because right after closing, he entered the academy. I should have met the elders, but it was the headmaster’s order…”
“It’s okay. When you’re old anyway, you don’t know how time passes. For the elders of the Presbytery, a year seemed like a day.”
“I’d be glad if that was the case.”
“By the way.”
Dan Cheon-sang’s gaze turned toward Midsummer and me. It was a moment, but a sharp light passed through Dan Chun-sang’s eyes.
“Hmm… Excuse me, but how are the two of you monks?”
“There is no other. I learned martial arts by self-study.”
“Huh… Self-taught…! It seems that the young master was not interested in it for nothing.”
“Have you heard anything from the headmaster?”
Chun Ha-yeon asked with a heavy tone. Dan Cheon-sang folded his arms and was lost in thought for a while.
“There is nothing. What are you doing?”
“Because I’m not sure exactly why the headmaster is interested in the two students.”
“Hmm…”
Suddenly, Tan Tian-sang stared at my face. It was a very subtle gaze. Eventually, I spoke first.
“Why is that?”
“Heh heh heh, nothing.”
Dan Chun-sang smiled kindly.
…That makes me more curious.
Even so, it was impossible to intimidate the elders of Min Hwa-gyeong and Choi Hyeon-gyeong to speak frankly.
I have no choice but to swallow my doubts inwardly.
As I was sipping the drink the flight attendant gave me, I began to see the land of Jeju below.
[…Looks like this from above.]
Midsummer opened her mouth halfway and looked at the panoramic view of Jeju outside the window. This couldn’t help but catch my attention.
As a single force, the world’s strongest armed group, the Heavenly Demon Goddess.
That’s what it means.
In the modern era where I lived, it was said that it was a huge PMC (private military corporation) that was unimaginable.
If Seoul has developed to the point where high-rise buildings are more common than in modern times.
The island itself has completely changed.
A peaceful getaway.
Beautiful island.
I can’t find a single one like that.
The most thoroughly fortified place on Earth was Jeju in this world.
If you only look at the number of high-rise buildings over 100 stories, there are probably far more than Seoul.
Every time I passed under it, I felt a sense of difference.
“It’s arriving soon.”
Dan Chun-sang stood up with his hands behind his back. Even though the plane was descending, Dan Chun-sang’s body did not even move.
Soon, the appearance of Hallasan Mountain covered with all kinds of buildings comes into view.
Finally, we arrived at the Heavenly Demonic Church.
