## Chapter 451 – 451. Level Up System
451. Level Up System
The prayer meeting ended in a haphazard manner.
The bishop, who had been preaching on the platform, suddenly went berserk, and over 2,000 believers witnessed the scene firsthand. There was no way the prayer meeting could have ended properly.
The believers were convinced it was the work of the devil. Just as they easily believed in the doctrines of a pseudo-religion, they easily believed in the existence of the devil.
“Believers! The prayer meeting is over! Go back and prepare for bed!”
“Our senior believers will take care of the devil! Do not worry about the devil!”
“Tomorrow, the founder, who is the apostle of heaven, will come! Do not be afraid and go to sleep! The devil will be defeated!”
The senior believers moved busily, reassuring the believers.
After the prayer meeting, the ordinary believers were given some free time.
Taking advantage of the chaotic atmosphere, I stole my smartphone and headed to Building C, as promised with the hypnotized female bishops.
A total of seven female bishops had gathered in the living room on the first floor of Building C. The female bishops were surprisingly young, ranging from their late 20s to late 30s.
I looked at them, putting on the most solemn expression I could muster. It was a moment where the acting skill I had recently acquired shone.
“Everyone… thank you for gathering like this.”
“It’s nothing. Believer Seong Yujin. What important story do you have to tell us? We would appreciate it if you could speak quickly, as we don’t have much time.”
Perhaps because the duration of the hypnosis had ended, the atmosphere of the female bishops was stiff.
“Hoo…. Everyone. Please listen carefully to what I have to say, and do not act rashly. Currently, there is a devil hiding among the male believers. Until the founder arrives tomorrow, we must prevent the devil from approaching the female believers.”
“We know there’s a devil. What happened today must have been the work of the devil. But we can’t believe that it’s hiding among the male believers. And prevent it from approaching the female believers? What do you mean by that? You’re just an ordinary believer, aren’t you?”
A female bishop spoke sharply.
Crazy bitch. If you’re going to believe in a cult, you should shut up and believe what I say.
I felt a surge of irritation, but I didn’t show it at all on the outside.
“…Originally, I didn’t intend to reveal this… but given the situation, I will reveal it only to you. I am actually an apostle, just like the founder.”
“……”
The atmosphere turned cold.
The female bishops’ faces hardened, and hostility appeared in their eyes. They didn’t believe me. Well, in the doctrine, it’s written that there is only one apostle of heaven, and only the founder is the apostle of heaven.
“You… you’re not a believer of our church, are you? Who are you?”
The oldest woman, in her late 30s, walked towards me with heavy steps and asked. As expected of a moron obsessed with a cult, her eyes were gone.
“I thought you wouldn’t believe me. According to the doctrine, there is only one apostle, the founder. I am an apostle, but a different apostle from the founder. The founder will lead you on the day the moon falls, and I am the apostle of lightning who has come down to this earth to protect you from the devil until that day and to assist the founder.”
“Don’t lie. You’re trying to deceive us. I’ve never heard of the name ‘apostle of lightning’.”
“I will show you the proof. Proof that I am the chosen apostle of heaven!”
When I spoke with force, the female bishops hesitated. Because I was so confident, they started to wonder if I might actually be an apostle.
Of course, this was thanks to the fact that I had hypnotized them earlier and changed their perception. If that hadn’t been the case, the female bishops wouldn’t have listened to me and would have tried to attack me the moment I claimed to be an apostle.
“……If you have proof, show it to us. But if you are impersonating an apostle, we will never forgive you.”
“This lightning! That is the proof!”
I spread my palm wide open. And then, lightning crackled around my hand.
*Crack! Crackle! Crackle, crackle!*
The female bishops stared, as if mesmerized, at the lightning writhing on my palm.
‘Sugella!’
I hypnotized the oldest female bishop in front of me again.
〈Hypnosis successful. However, the target is partially resisting. The duration of the hypnosis is 33 minutes and 41 seconds.〉
Thud!
The female bishop knelt before me, tears streaming down her face.
“Ah…! Apostle of Lightning! Why have you only come now!”
Starting with her, the female bishops behind her knelt on the floor. As I had expected, her position among the female bishops was uniquely high.
“Originally, there was no need for me to come down to this earth. But… since the devils have come up to the surface and are threatening the believers, how could I just stand by?”
“You came to protect us…! Thank you! Thank you!”
The female bishops bowed their heads towards me and began to pray with their hands clasped together.
I felt a strange sensation creeping up from my toes. A sense of conquest? It was similar, but a little different.
“Everyone. We can’t keep doing this. The devil is targeting the female believers.”
“Apostle! What should we do?! How can we stop the devil?!”
“The devil is currently hiding among the male believers. I can use the sacred lightning to destroy the devil, but I do not have the power to distinguish the devil. Tomorrow, the founder will come and distinguish the devil. Until then, we must prevent the devil from targeting the female believers. I need your help.”
“What do we have to do?!”
“We must perform a ritual to protect ourselves from the devil. Through the ritual, I will inject sacred power into your bodies. First, the bishops will perform the ritual, and then we will gather the women in the auditorium and perform the ritual.”
“Understood.”
“Take off your clothes. Clothes will only be a hindrance to the sacred ritual. You must participate in the ritual in the state you were born.”
“Understood!”
“…Huh?”
The reactions were mixed.
The hypnotized female bishop answered as if it were natural, but the other female bishops seemed to sense something was wrong.
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
‘Was the performance with lightning not enough?’
It wouldn’t be bad to hypnotize all the female bishops. But my magic power isn’t infinite either. I need to conserve as much magic power as possible, even to make the founder who will come tomorrow my subordinate.
“The apostle told us to take them off for the ritual! It’s natural that we have to take them off!”
The hypnotized female bishop immediately took off her clothes. The fact that they didn’t wear any underwear under their religious robes also applied to the bishops. She became naked and urged the other female bishops.
“You are bishops! What are you hesitating for?! Is that all your faith amounts to?!”
“B-but….”
I stepped forward towards the hesitant female bishops.
“You don’t trust me.”
“Ah, no. We trust you. We trust you, but….”
Even if they were part of a cult, it seemed difficult to completely trust someone they had only met 10 minutes ago.
“I have no choice then. I will prove myself once again.”
I put my hand into my religious robe pocket.
‘Manipulate the inventory from inside the pocket….’
I took out a knife. The female bishops seemed surprised by the small, paring knife. Then, I took out a glass bottle containing potion.
“Everyone, this is holy water that heaven has given me. It has the power of healing. I will prove it to you now, so watch carefully.”
I used the paring knife to slice my left wrist. The flesh was cut, and red blood dripped to the floor. The female bishops were startled, but they couldn’t take their eyes off me. It was proof that they were engrossed.
“Look carefully! This is a deep wound with blood flowing out endlessly! If I don’t go to the hospital right now, my life could be in danger.”
“W-we need to go to the hospital right now! No, call an ambulance!”
The naked female bishop was flustered.
“It’s okay! Because! I have holy water! Now watch! This is the power of holy water!”
I showed them the potion and then poured it on my wrist. The potion exerted its power. The wound began to heal instantly.
And it was healing so fast that it was visible!
In less than 30 seconds, my wrist was only stained with blood, with no scars at all.
“Even after this, can you not trust me?!”
I shouted at the female bishops.
“A-ah, no! We trust you!”
The female bishops, who had been staring blankly at my wrist, answered in surprise.
“Hurry and take off your clothes! We must proceed with the ritual! Don’t forget that the more we hesitate, the more the devil will rejoice!”
“Yes!”
The female bishops took off their religious robes, revealing their naked bodies. I had to hold back my erection.
‘Not now. Hold it in, little guy!’
The weakness of the brainwashing used by the founder. It was that the brainwashing was based on the doctrine, not on himself.
‘It must have been a choice to gather as many people as possible. People fall into religion quickly.’
So, the power of brainwashing contained in the doctrine could be used in this way.
After confirming their naked bodies, I also took off my religious robe and became naked. My penis was half-erect, but the female bishops just had holy expressions.
“One by one. I will bestow sacred power one by one. Come here and line up.”
I brought my palm, which had been smeared with ordinary water that I had passed off as holy water, to the face of the first female bishop in line.
“May sacred power dwell within you!”
I lowered my palm. I stroked her neck, then her slightly sagging breasts, and then lingered on her abdomen before touching her vagina.
“Ugh! A-apostle, this is!”
“This is a process to settle the sacred power! Do not speak!”
“Yes, yes!”
I pinched her clitoris once and then finished.
“This concludes the ritual. The devil cannot harm the bishop for the time being. Next!”
“Y-yes!”
I quickly finished the ritual and ordered the bishops.
“The devil’s influence may also reach the other female believers, so they must be gathered in the auditorium. Bishops, please gather the female believers in the auditorium within 20 minutes!”
“Yes. Understood, Apostle!”
“Ah, you stay behind.”
I left one of the female bishops behind, the youngest and most beautiful one, among the female bishops who were leaving.
“Apostle? Do you have something else you want me to do?”
“You are highly likely to be a target of the devil. So, I will bestow grace upon you directly.”
“The apostle’s grace! I will gladly accept it!”
“Take off your clothes and lie down on the floor.”
“Yes!”
The female bishop, who had a strong faith, did as I said. I grinned as I looked at her perky breasts and erect nipples, then stretched out both hands to her smooth thighs and made her spread her legs.
The position naturally became the missionary position. My penis was placed on top of her vagina. I could feel the rough pubic hair on my penis.
“A-apostle?! Didn’t you say you were going to bestow grace?!
“This is my grace! You are worthy of receiving my grace!”
“Ah, no. Something feels wrong…. Ahhh!”
I shoved my penis into her vagina. I had used orgasm enhancement when I touched her body earlier, pretending to perform the ritual, but her vagina was still a little dry.
“Aaaah! Apostle! Take it out! It hurts! Apostle!”
“The pain is only for a moment! Accept the grace! Soon, joy will fill your body!”
I pushed my penis all the way in. Her pink vagina was stretched to its limit, and her maiden blood flowed down my penis and balls.
“Aaaah! Apostle! Ack!”
The female bishop screamed. I moved my penis while listening to her screams. Her tight vagina was exquisite.
“Long live the Red Sea Church!”
•••
Over 1,000 female believers had gathered in the auditorium.
I was the only man there, and I was standing on the platform. Female bishops were standing around me. They had solemn expressions, but the female bishop I had fucked was looking at me with a dazed expression.
If you looked closely, you could see a few drops of whitish liquid under her feet. I had ejaculated inside her three times in 20 minutes.
“……”
I first quietly looked around at the female believers. The sight of over 1,000 female believers standing there was spectacular.
‘If I weed out the ugly ones and pick out the beauties that are to my liking, I’d probably have less than 50 left.’
The female believers looked at me with puzzled expressions. They had no idea why I was here. If it weren’t for the female bishops, they would have been completely out of control.
I needed to quickly gain their trust.
Let’s start the performance.
“Everyone! I am an apostle who has come down from the same heaven as the founder! The apostle of lightning! I have come down from heaven to protect you from the devil! I will prove it to you now!”
I stabbed my own neck with the prepared knife.
*Thwack.*
I shuddered at the unpleasant sensation of the knife piercing my neck, but I endured it.
“Kyaaaaaaah!”
