Chapter 367 – God
#367.
The confrontation between the two men ended with the concession of the father of the daughter.
Said the duke with a sigh.
“Let’s start with general corrections. All I saw was until you attacked Hirencia. Why do you think you’re going to keep watching that in the first place?”
“Then…”
“I don’t know what happened after that. Of course you can make predictions. So, do you have anything to say?”
Perhaps the duke had expected that a day like this would come at some point. If it wasn’t for that, there’s no way I could be this cold.
I can’t imagine that he would easily forgive a duke who had tampered with the heir of the family.
Gaon finally realized that he had fallen into a useless illusion and was doing shadow boxing by himself, so he lowered his head.
“Sorry. I had a strange misunderstanding.”
“I just need to know. More than that, let’s be clear about Hirencia. Dude, what are you going to do next? You’re not going to be content with just physical relationships, are you?”
“Of course. I would like to become a lover with Hirencia, and in the future to marry her.”
I don’t know when it will be, but the day when we defeat the Dimension Eaters and regain complete peace. He was planning to have a grand wedding than anyone else.
That was the least reward for the lovers who believed in him and followed him.
The duke clicked his tongue as if he didn’t like that confident declaration, then spat it out briefly.
“Then send the heir to the duchy.”
“Yes?”
“This means that the child born between Hirencia and you will be registered as a ducal family. I can’t let the cost of the Shubrans family end. Wouldn’t you be able to accept this?”
Certainly a much more moderate and sensible proposition than he feared.
Sending your child to the Duke’s house doesn’t mean that you won’t be able to meet again, and since you’ll be able to see each other anytime, it’s quite understandable if you just think that the place where you live is a little different.
After thinking about it, Gaon decided to add one more condition to him.
“Instead, I will stay with you until you are 10 years old. Anyway, shouldn’t we learn swordsmanship from Hirencia? Other than that, I will learn about politics after I grow up to a certain extent. How is it?”
“Does not matter. Then the talk ends here. I don’t want to see you, so please leave immediately.”
“… Yes. Excuse me.”
Surprisingly, he seems to be the type to keep the Duke inside. Perhaps the anger accumulated over the previous misunderstanding has not yet been resolved, and he roughly issued a congratulatory order.
Gaon lowered his head once more and left the waiting room and returned to Hirencia.
‘Is this issue over for now?’
Hirencia also woke up safely, and the duke’s objection was somehow well resolved. Now is the time to deal with the backlog.
The first one.
‘Platform.’
It was necessary to know what the hidden object was and what the purpose of the human experiment was.
I had already told Louisiana a few days ago, so I just had to wait for news to come.
So, three weeks passed.
***
November, when even the fallen leaves that had turned the trees red lose their power and begin to pile up on the ground.
Gaon visited Chorin’s lab after a long time.
When I go inside, I see her sitting in her chair, holding on to her communicator, lost in her troubles. I guess something isn’t going to work out.
“Chorin. What’s going on?”
“Ah, Gaon. That’s because Serendia hasn’t heard from her for days. I don’t think it’s just busy, so what’s going on?”
After hearing the news that the Church was conducting human experiments through Urariel’s foreknowledge, he informed everyone in the party of course.
So, from then on, Chorin noticeably increased her contact with Serendia.
It was in the judgment that she might catch a clue about her something through her.
However, there were only two options for Gaon to consider that she hadn’t been contacted for several days.
Reading Chorin’s purpose, deliberately ignoring it, or something serious about her that made her unable to contact me.
In the present case, it is so complicated that neither side can be hastily concluded.
“Hmm… Come to think of it, the saintess’ activities have been sparse lately. I guess I should ask Lougiena to pay more attention.”
“I hope it doesn’t matter. I don’t know the church, but Serendia isn’t such a bad person.”
“Is it so? She seems to have become very close.”
“Yes. The conversation goes well. But is there anything to see? What is it?”
Gaon is very busy. As much as she was, she didn’t waste time, and even when she was looking for her lovers, she always had to do several things at once.
In response to Chorin’s question, Gaon playfully shrugged her shoulders as if feeling sad.
“Can’t I come? I’m coming to see my girl.”
“Joy! So, did she come to visit often? Busy chasing after other girls.”
“… I’m chasing after you. Please tell me to be faithful to my family.”
“It must be faithful to fishery management.”
“…”
I really can’t stand a single word.
However, what cannot be denied blindly is that the act of expressing things differently is actually no different from fishery management.
On Monday, he went to the Mage Tower to give Jaehee a protein syringe, on Tuesday, he finished the contract with Rivera without the lovers knowing, and on Wednesday, he went to the Barrymore estate to enjoy the love between Priscilla and her husband. It moved without drying out.
It was the dream life that any man would hope for, and it was the kind of life that many women would point their fingers at if they saw it, calling it the trash of the world.
As Gaon held her mouth shut and kept her silent, she let out a sigh as if Chorin couldn’t beat her.
“That’s Okay. So what is she going to see?”
“I really just came to see Chorin. Because she has nothing to see?”
“Really? It’s strange…”
“Ugh! Is she suspicious now? Shall I just go?”
Gaon deliberately went out more confidently. She was in fact because she really had something to see. She just didn’t have to ask because she was listening before she even spoke.
She could never reveal that she had come to investigate her movements with the Order.
‘I should at least show condescension for things like this.’
These days, I feel like my score has gone down a lot, but I have to seize the opportunity when it comes so that I can prevent a catastrophe in advance.
As she suffered from as many as 9 women, she had a keen eye for dating.
As she half-turned her body toward her entrance and sent her a silent gesture as if it was really okay to go, Chorin immediately removed her suspicious eyes.
“All right. Then I’m sitting on the sofa. I’ll get you something to drink.”
“Coke, please.”
Union is indeed a world full of surprises, but unfortunately, there is no drink more delicious and addictive than Coke.
It was time to look around the lab, leaving Chorin behind to go to the refrigerator.
Ugh-
A call came from Louisiana.
Gaon glanced at Chorin once again for some unknown premonition and quickly blew mana into the communicator.
“Hello? Lugiena?”
-Huh. It’s me. Do you have a request related to the church? Right now, the 6th guardian, Alexander Balderk, has arrived. I think you need to come in a hurry.
“… All right. I’ll be right there.”
It is known that Lucipeon already belongs to Gaon’s sphere of influence. For a Guardian to visit such a place is dangerous enough that it could be considered as betraying the Church.
In other words, there is a reason to take such a risk and come back.
Gaon, who had cut off contact, stood up, and Chorin approached and handed him a coke.
“Let’s go. It’s urgent.”
“Thank you. I’ll be back soon.”
I’m sorry Chorin, but I can’t help it. What they are doing now is not playing house. Gaon hit Coke with one shot and left the guild.
After a while, when I arrived at the office, I saw Rouziena and Alexander sitting opposite each other on the sofa.
As soon as Gaon entered, Alexander jumped up and approached with strides.
And before he could say anything, he violently fell to his knees, lowered his head, and shouted:
“Please. Save Serendia!”
“… What is it suddenly. Please start with an explanation.”
I still vividly remember how this man, on his first meeting, slashed the Earl of Barrymore and his concubine in the head with a single blow.
To the extent that such a psychotic man threw away his pride and asked for a favor.
After several days of no contact, it seemed that something serious had happened to her saintess.
At Gaon’s persuasion, Alexander hesitated, then stood up and began to explain.
“It was the night of five days ago. Suddenly, Serendia came to me. She then said that the church was conducting human experiments on her. She said she had to make it right.”
“Did you disappear after that?”
“Okay. Two days later, to be exact, the morning prayer didn’t come out, so when I went to the room, it was gone. When she asked the priestess who served Serendia, she said that she had left for service in a foreign country out of the blue. But she didn’t answer even when I tried to contact her. Clearly someone used her hand.”
“Looks like you got caught.”
It is unknown until the details of her story, but it seems certain that she was arrested after the saintess’ ulterior motives to prevent human experiments were revealed.
As Gaon stroked his chin and tried to get lost in thought, Alexander hurriedly rummaged through his pockets and held out his paper.
“Wait a minute, here is a hint. I didn’t know it, but it was in the top pocket of my uniform. This is the last information Serendia left.”
“Hmm… Are you saying it behind your back?”
“Well, I think I put it in when I was asleep.”
I guess the two of them were like that.
In terms of her physical abilities, the saintess, who is no different from ordinary people, can’t hide in her room without Alexander’s knowledge, so it means that she took permission after all.
The host, having greeted her guests, is never seen sleeping alone, so it makes sense that she slept with them.
When Gaon sent a coy glance, Alexander flinched and made an excuse.
“… Being a clergyman is not prohibited from marrying. You may have children.”
“I know that. Didn’t you say anything?”
“Anyway! Read it quickly Then you will know something more.”
Gaon quickly accepted the act of putting paper on his face as if forcibly and confirmed the contents.
“Prestige. Birth. Deity fragment. Transplantation. A test subject.”
Words are sparsely placed, so I can’t interpret them precisely, but they are so impressive that I can get a glimpse of them.
In particular, Gaon focused on the divinity fragment.
‘Something hidden deep inside.’
Is it too soon to predict that there will be a relationship between these two?
No, absolutely not.
Rather, it is right to see that the cause of all the problems is not the extent to which these two are related, but the divine fragment in the first place.
What if what they were trying to achieve by brainwashing Chorin in their previous life as well as now was to create a new god that they could control according to their taste.
Then, of course, what Gaon had to do was decided.
‘I have to break it down.’
Having made a decision, Gaon immediately took out the communicator from his bosom. There are more people to call here for the plan.
