Chapter 256 – Are You Dissatisfied?
It was never easy to reach the orange level, or in other words, the level of a superman.
Even with decent talent and effort, I couldn’t even dream of it, and even if I had enough talent, I could never reach the level of a superman without putting in a lot of effort.
Therefore, although the tendencies of those who became superhumans were diverse, their lives were almost similar.
Eat, practice, sleep, eat, practice, sleep. Most of my life followed this pattern.
Naturally, their social experience was very low compared to their high level, and they rarely quarreled with others.
What does that mean?
He was very good at fighting with spears and swords, but he was the weakest at fighting with words.
However, that didn’t really cause any problems.
As hikikomori, it was extremely rare for them to get into an argument, and even if they did, the other person took care of it.
If you make a mistake, you could end up getting stabbed, but what kind of crazy person would take that risk?
Of course, there were people who took the risk, and only after being stabbed did they all admit their defeat with tears in their eyes.
Sometimes, there were arguments between superhumans.
Of course, when you become a superhuman, you are a warrior by nature, so you only fight briefly in the first fight with words, and after that, you immediately draw your weapon and fight.
Their argument was just a fight over words, no different from a greeting they exchanged before drawing their weapons.
Naturally, not only were they the worst at arguing, but they also had almost no experience in actual combat.
For those people,
“No complaints, right? If you have any complaints, tell me now. Later, I went home and thought, ‘Ah~. Don’t regret saying ‘I should have said this.'”
“…”
Jun was a truly hated nemesis.
There was no way that superhumans would be able to defeat him in an argument, as he could simulate what he would say and how the other person would react through his ‘superpower-thinking’,
“Profit!”
“Why. Are you going to fight with your body because it makes no sense? Okay, let’s give it a try.”
Even though he wanted to put pressure on him by force, he was reluctant to do so because he felt burdened by the church that was looking after him, and he couldn’t put pressure easily because his own strength was not normal.
Crack! Crack!
Sigh! Sigh!
Doridori
As a result, even though Lee Geom-seong, Samgeom-seong, and Pae-seong joined forces and had a 3-to-1 argument, they ended up getting beat up by Jun.
Lee Geom-seong must have been so angry that he glared at Jun and gritted his teeth fiercely. Samgeom-seong closed his eyes as if he was trying hard to control his anger, but his breathing was extremely rough. Pae Seong raised his shield in front of him as if telling him not to go any further. I hid my head inside it.
After turning the three superhumans into a groggy state at the same time, Jun smiled brightly on his face.
He looked refreshed after being forced to study and all the accumulated stress was relieved, but to other people who didn’t know him, it seemed like he was just happy to see people suffering.
Most of the people in the grand hall fell into extreme fear upon seeing that smile, and the meeting ended when Arthur decided that he was in no mood to do anything more.
Although the meeting ended in vain, more people than expected wondered what happened to the small balls fired by the three superhumans and the nobles who fell for their trick.
In anticipation that the nobles would be able to regain their lost authority and rights,
Other people had no choice but to pay attention to the results of the meeting, fearing that the denomination’s proxy rule would end and the improved quality of life would return to the past.
Because of this, the nobles who attended the meeting had to go out to tea parties and balls without being able to rest even for a moment, and every time they remembered the crazy beautiful yet crazy scary smile that Jun showed at that time, they frothed at the mouth.
Not just one person, but many people, and not just once or twice, but every time, their fear quickly became contagious, and as a result, Jun was given another nickname after the descendant of a wise man, a true warrior, and an executioner angel.
The nickname ‘Cheonma’ implies that he follows the will of heaven but is extremely evil.
Jun, who happened to hear the nickname, laughs at the owner of the nickname, asking what he did to deserve such a cheesy nickname. When he sees people around him looking at him, he belatedly realizes that the owner is him and kills him. It has become a squid.
――――――
“Here are the next documents.”
“Yes, please leave it on the desk.”
Joseph, the priest of the book, followed Jun’s words and carefully laid down the documents he had piled so high that his head could not be seen on his desk.
And instead of leaving the room, I took a step back and quietly watched Jun processing the documents.
Soon, the pile of documents began to float one by one due to something.
The last remaining document was placed in front of Jun, who had just finished a document, in his hands.
When about 3 seconds had passed, Jun began to draw his signature on the document with the pen he was holding,
At the same time, numerous pens floating one step ahead began dancing on the documents floating in the air.
A mountain of unprocessed documents quickly turned into processed documents.
Even though he had already seen the same scene several times, Joseph was moved to tear this time as if he had witnessed a miracle.
“Priest Joseph, are you crying again? “Other people, too, keep crying because they wonder what is so touching about this.”
After finishing the last document once again, Jun frowned as if he felt burdened when he saw Joseph shedding tears.
In the beginning, I was happy and proud to see those tears, but every time the priests in charge, including Joseph, started shedding tears, I felt burdened instead of happy.
“You don’t know, Cardinal. The difficulties faced by our working staff. Do you know how much trouble we suffer when our superiors are delayed in processing documents?”
“Uh… No.”
“People are yelling at me and asking why I’m so late in getting things done. “I don’t know anything about the situation here.”
Despite complaining, Joseph’s expression was extremely peaceful.
But that’s only for a moment
“Well, that doesn’t even count as hardship anymore. Because I realized that no matter what anyone says, I just have to listen with one ear and let it go with the other. But!”
The more I spoke, the more distorted it became, as if the anger and resentment that had been stored in my heart were leaking out,
“I can’t stand the fact that they don’t look at the documents I worked so hard to fill out day and night, forgetting about them, and telling me to fill them out again from scratch, saying they can’t tolerate even the slightest mistake. No, I just need to sign an autograph, but you can’t do that one thing! There’s only one spelling mistake, so you’re asking me to do it all over again! If it weren’t for the Pope and the warrior, right about now!”
In the end, I was tearing my hair out like a crazy person.
Jun was so surprised to see such a contrast to his usual rational self that he glanced under the desk without realizing it.
When our eyes met, we saw a pair of golden lights drawing a bewitching half moon, and a pair of blue lights looking at that light with cold eyes.
Sigh! Whoop!
Flinch!
“Cardinal? Why is my body suddenly shaking?”
“Yes? Well, I am so thankful for the hard work of the working-level staff, and I am so sad…”
“Tsk! As expected, we only have Cardinal Jun. Our working staff’s devotion is to our Father in heaven, but our loyalty is to the Cardinal.”
“You can’t believe you’re loyal to someone like me. It’s too much.”
“No! If it weren’t for the Cardinal, we would have collapsed from exhaustion a long time ago! In a way, you are a lifesaver, and that is only natural!”
It wasn’t a joke, it was serious.
Currently, the working-level staff of the church are taking on not only the church’s affairs, but also a significant portion of the empire’s affairs due to proxy rule.
If Jun hadn’t made full use of his ‘superpower-thinking’ and ‘skill-third hand’ to help with the office work, they would have collapsed a long time ago, just like Joseph said.
The working staff were all well aware of that fact, and that is why they were so eager to show their loyalty.
“All right. Okay. I will accept that loyalty. Instead, don’t show it outside. “Because my location is a location, a lot of people will be wary.”
Cardinal.
A position immediately below the Pope, who can be said to be the master of the religious order.
As the position is a position, only those with deep faith and who have devoted their lives to the religious order can hold the position, but Franco readily gave the position to Jun.
Several cardinals and old priests who were aiming for the position of cardinal opposed the decision, but Franco pledged to give him a suitable title in return for lending Dowonhyang, his merits in this incident, and the fact that he was the lover of a warrior and a saint, etc. When I told them that it was all added together, I couldn’t resist any further.
No, I couldn’t resist.
If he did, Franco’s trademark Pope’s weak hand would immediately come flying out.
Because they had no choice but to admit it, they were still wary of Jun and looking for an opportunity to attack him.
In such a situation, if they found out that the working-level staff had pledged loyalty, they would definitely bother them by saying nonsense such as splitting sides and trying to promote division in the denomination.
Even now, 24 hours a day is not enough between paperwork, training, and spending time with my wife, and I have no time to play with them.
“All right. I think I made the Cardinal’s feelings complicated by saying something unnecessary. “I am truly sorry.”
“No. Rather, please return quickly with these processed documents. “I’m going to get scolded for playing around with other priests.”
“It can’t be like that. Then, I will come back later with the documents.”
Joseph came out to visit with the processed documents.
No, the moment I was about to step out…
“This. “I’m sorry.”
“No, that’s enough. “Hurry and go your way.”
I almost collided with Gungseong who was just about to knock on my door.
After indifferently saying that it was okay to Joseph, who repeatedly apologized and nodded, Gungseong came into the room through the open door.
“Gungseong sister, I didn’t ask you to come in.”
“If the door is open, it’s permission. Don’t act petty. Rather, uh, how long are you going to do that? Come out quickly!”
Gungseong pointed under the desk where Jun was sitting with her new red face.
