Chapter 861 – Holy Usury (6)
***
After the popes who gave their estimates went off like Kapoor going into debt, I popped a bottle.
─Little.
Loki also sat down on the sofa, and the person I poured for me lowered his head in gratitude.
“That’s true, but doesn’t that mean that you liked my performance? In my opinion, it was a performance of the whole body, but I couldn’t shed more tears than the Count.〉 ─Tada! The Pomonaian boy pope clinked glasses with me, exchanging laughter. 〈… Heh heh. Haha!〉 〈… Whoop whoop. Whoop whoop whoop!〉 Surrounded by bread, wine, and fruit made from the harvest of the Pomona Church, we laughed and laughed. Loki stuck out his tongue and picked up a piece of fruit. The boy pope, who cooperated in tricking the popes and setting the mood, spoke quickly. The calculating man who had been acting as a naive idealist for over 10 years was serving Loki as if he were serving his own god. Of course, I already knew why. ─Wasak. After biting into the apple, I was able to smile with satisfaction on both my mind and body. This church fruit grows well. Wives, Meg should pack this. ‘Loki. How about a drink? There are also carefully selected and carefully selected top-notch beers.〉 Seemingly accustomed to being worshiped by now—though considering his status, it was only natural for him to do so—Loki accepted the treat with delight and praised him. The boy-pope, whose face melted like my praised francs, also answered merrily. Hit. Surprisingly, it does. I thought the answer would be unrealistic even if I heard it again, drinking wine. Pomona, god of fertility, was Loki’s follower? ‘Civil. The world is so small, but I can’t even predict what’s going to happen in this world.’ Isn’t it natural that fate would be twisted for these crazy people? The nickname of chaos’s favorite was really literal. When we found out about this from the blueprints recovered after shaking off the emperor whose execution date was just around the corner, our astonishment and absurdity were indescribable.
Like some kind of FBI background investigation file, the activities of the artificial gods were also recorded.
Among them, only Loki and Veronica were not surprised to see the contents of Pomona.
‘Well. As expected, common sense education is urgently needed for bicorns.’
Me and Dana, who are of course common sense, were confused as she held her head.
—What kind of god of fertility believes in Loki? Turned?
– Are you crazy? Are you over the line? This is the main work. Cancer I see.
─Guys. Hearing Loki, I want to shed tears.
But surprisingly, it was true.
Unlike dramas, reality is double-tracked because there is no script, and there is no place to protest even if the story is fucked. Didn’t you hear that the floor collapsed during the meeting and famous nobles drowned in the poop?
Even more so, there was a foreshadowing of Loki, the god of fertility.
A boy pope with his hands folded and speaking in prayer. I nodded and answered.
Let’s talk TMI about other world religions for a moment here again.
The genealogy of the gods of this world is roughly as follows.
‘The primordial gods and their descendants who naturally occurred without parents are innate royal blood.’
Odin’s three siblings and Narmer-Nile’s sun god Ra are the former, and the latter are bicorns and unicorns. The gods who gave birth to the gods were the same genealogy.
‘The real gods with bloodline certificates are this one.’
Those families who had settled in the continent and dimension of 【Middle Branch】. Genesis God’s lineage.
And the power of creation was the guarantee of lineage that only those noblemen possessed.
Equinox, who stole the power of the pharaoh, or Dana, who inherited the throne, or Lalilura, but Tyrsi could not use the power of creation separately. Because he’s not a real god.
I’ve written about it a few times, but Enrir who got Thor’s throne? As the one who was accredited didn’t use it in battle, he didn’t seem to match my aptitude very much.
‘Even if Thor is the real thunder god, he’s not the type to make things honestly, right?’
I wonder if I can’t make a work like Michelangelo because I don’t have clay.
Even if the conditions are right, I don’t have the talent, so I can’t make something like Odin’s Valkyrie.
Let’s talk about sinsehantan like this. Anyway, no matter what I do with the power of creation, if I swing the spear a few times, I’ll hit the cake. Turning the story around, it’s about the origins of the gods again.
The above-mentioned God-family are the real gods who ruled the first nations of humans, such as Narmer-Nile, Erin, and Germania. The rest of the nations only appeared after ancient times.
‘The fundamental religious denominations originate here.’
The Church of Hathor, where Nefertiti entrusted herself, is a true religion that has been passed down from the Age of Gods.
However, names like Sleipnir or Henir Takari Rahan are not well known unless they are names worthy of a believer to establish a church.
In particular, the remaining religious denominations that have passed through the New Age-Ancient-Present are part of Narmer-Nile or Romania’s pseudo-religion, which are almost all of the remaining denominations in human society.
When did I ever mention something like the ‘Cult of Freya’?
In this modern world, most of the religions of the gods were in a position that was almost no different from the local religion. Odin and Thor, who were said to be so damn strong, don’t have a separate church that worships them.
Alright, and here comes the important point.
‘Artificial gods were newly created after Ragnarok, saying that they couldn’t live without gods.’
The Seven Great Gods of Romania is a new religion that has been launched since ancient times. And it’s a divine power vending machine.
These were the words of the young pope, who had been acting like a fool for fear of obliterating the history of the imperial family. If you think about it, isn’t it natural? Age of Gods → early ancient times → birth of artificial gods → golden age. This is the flow of human history in another world. Therefore, artificial gods could believe in other gods as much as they wanted during their lifetime. Because? It was a time when the gods had not yet left their jobs. In other words, during the Age of the Gods, Romania was also ruled by the Jintung gods! ‘The unique god of Romania is Uranus.’ What suddenly comes to mind is the remains of the Beast Return that I went with Fran in the past. -Chew, isn’t Odin the heavenly god? – Lord Uranus. ─Oh… —Lord Uranus. ─Hey… A quarrel between a Franc from Nidavellir in Germania and a Britian Romanian religious priest. From one to ten, it is a debate that has no basis at all, and I miss it. ‘Wow fuck, really, when the hell was that?’ Suddenly reminds me How will the hair loss priest, who was said to be Paragon, be doing by now? I laughed and munched on scones made from wheat harvested by the Church of the Abundant Gods. The important thing is that the old man who was an adventurer to make a living also knew the name of Uranus. When I was suffering from erectile dysfunction, wasn’t there Optum and the Church of Uranus, the sky god who came to visit me? Odin’s ghost said that Uranus went to Earth and created Zeus and the Greek gods and acted as a father. I don’t know if Uranus actually died as a eunuch like in Greek mythology. Even if they hadn’t entered the artificial god system instead of 7, before Romania even existed. It is said that Uranus was the god in charge at the time when human colonies were ruling over this fertile plain.
The boy pope watched in rapture as Loki ate the fruit.
While sucking on the grapes, Loki gave a lively comment.
〈Uranus had a twisted personality, so his nickname was Ymir Jr. He had no friends, so he only took his men with him. Were the strength of his subordinates as good as the mithril class you are talking about?〉
“If you say that, I have nothing more to say.”
This is what I said earlier in the presence of the popes.
‘It must be an illusion to say that all gods are strong.’
Even the Bicorn Gods were of the Mithril class, at least if they were high.
〈At such a time, there was a person who wished for a bountiful harvest that year while making use of the earth’s intellect. Yes. This is our god of abundance, Pomona.〉
Holding the sacred sign, the boy pope explained convincingly.
〈I guess, but perhaps that’s when the fertility god met the fairies who lived freely in the former lands of Romania. It’s a very natural meeting.〉
“Because there is no being better than a fairy when it comes to growing plants.”
The one who told me about Brunak was also a fairy who had flowed into the Holy Land of Bicorn.
Isn’t it Pomona who has been producing a good harvest since her birth, and her ability has fully blossomed and become a god of fertility?
Of course, there would have been opportunities to hear rumors, meet, or visit.
‘It’s worth encountering both in terms of time and place.’
That’s why I said there was a double line.
Before and after Ragnarok, Loki was already a benefactor, and bicorns/unicorns believed in the prophecies of the prophet in the Holy Land of 【Middle Branch】 and held on to them.
Why would our Veronica wear the traditional clothes of Romania?
After Ragnarok, during the time of ancient civilization, the life radius of the Bicorn Gods was mainly in that region. Why? Well, in the early days of antiquity, it must have been the least populated area.
Romulus, the first emperor who never dreamed that his descendants would follow the descendants of the stars.
Before he founded Romania, unified the plains and founded his own empire, Romania must have been a place less touched by humans.
Then, in the golden age two to three hundred years later, Atlantis peeks out, and the following is omitted.
Like this, even the gods from Germania must have been in Romania around the time of transition between the age of gods and ancient times. The first fairy I met was also in the Holy Land of Bicorn in Romania.
As if imagining those days, the boy Pope smiled with his heart beating.
They say they look like high elves, so they put sunglasses on first.
A saint who sits on a stump and smiles with fairies. She must have looked like a painting.
‘And those fairies were of the lineage of a certain goddess. Yes. The ability to communicate with plants is the power of the God of All Words. Therefore, the progenitor of fairies is none other than… 〉
It stings my ears. Are you drunk already?
I chuckled and gulped down the wine.
Think about it. Where did the naughty and mischievous side of fairies come from?
Didn’t the Fairy King also say that? He said that the power to talk to plants was Rodur’s blessing.
According to the logic, it is. But somehow I ended up looking at Loki with suspicious eyes. ‘So, Mr. Rodur? Can you grow plants like the fairies too?〉 I didn’t say it in words, but I roughly knew Loki’s aptitude. The ultimate ice attribute is space attribute, and Veronica and the bicorns deal with flame and light. Fire and ice. The movement of heat in and out of space, entropy. In other words, Yu Hee-sin is a dimensional god who freely roams the nine heavenly world. Yu Hee-sin’s authority 【Editor of Pocheon】 is its ultimate manifestation. ‘That’s why it’s questionable.’ Although Loki has the aspect of being a god of ten thousand words, it doesn’t seem to have much to do with a good harvest. At my point, Mr. Rodur, who had been spitting out grape seeds, stopped moving. ─Suck. Loki averting his eyes = Rodur. 〈… It is the joy of her parents that her sons and daughters have grown and surpassed themselves.” “You can’t.” Individual aptitude does not discriminate between parents and children. Odin’s wish, Loki’s honest uprightness and Yu-hee-shin’s aptitude are to unicorns and bicorns. Couldn’t Trickster Loki’s accident-prone personality and aptitude for being a god of all things go to the fairies? It must be the moment that reminds me of a homosexual unicorn risking its life against Professor Hyromain. They say blood can’t be fooled, and if you bring the descendants together and fuse them together, Loki 2 will be created.
“No, you’ve been talking a lot since before.”
This is pure fanaticism.
I heard that Lady Gaga is a big fan of Michael Jackson, but the little pope can be compared to a fan of Lady Gaga who met Michael Jackson.
Well. Also i’m a genius That’s a fitting analogy.
As I was congratulating myself, the Little Pope handed over all the food to Loki Locust, then approached me and politely held out the box he had brought.
〈I was worried that you would like the gift, but fortunately, it seems to be what you want.〉 Even while waiting in the ruins, he was worried inwardly. After I opened the box, I noticed. This. It is a reliquary. 〈Since ancient times, isn’t it best to hand over gifts before others?〉 ‘Oh, of course it is. As expected, you can communicate.〉 When I looked into the chest opened by the pope, I was suddenly reminded of a classic novel. Some villages say that ripe ears of barley swaying in the wind are “Running wolves.” It is because the scene swaying in the wind looks like a wolf running through a barley field. 〈This is a masterpiece that the 15th pope spent his entire life making. I hope you like it.〉 Looking at the old-fashioned sacred relic engraved with the wolf’s pattern, I laughed out loud. People from other worlds really like metaphors.
