Episode 93

29. I like scary things (4)

There was no more sadness here. Only the glory of God shines brightly.

The undead who insulted life and the souls that could not find rest were purified.

Yelia smiled at the fact that she had successfully executed the will of the gods and took her weapon, Crescent.

Like the sun, the torch that lit the surroundings also faded.

A man sitting on the street looking at him came into view.

A black spear hung from the back and the armor of an anti-horse horse that was wrapped around his body.

It was Baeksanwoo.

“ah……!”

Elijah hurriedly took off the hood that had covered his face and gave a respectful greeting to the Canaanite temple according to the etiquette.

“Nice to meet you. Sanwoo Baek.”

In fact, this was the second time we met face-to-face.

There was a high probability that Baek Sanwoo did not see his own face.

Because the place was the place, I was wearing the hood deeply at the time.

Therefore, Elijah decided to add an introduction about himself.

“My name is Jelia, a high-ranking heretic judge and substitute in the Temple of Canaan, the Heresy Judgment Bureau. I met Baek San-woo last time in the dungeon.”

Let’s end the introduction with greetings.

Baek San-woo, who had been sitting still, staggered, got up from his seat and approached him.

‘Something is wrong.’

That’s what I thought, but I didn’t feel any hostility at all.

Elijah just watched the Baeksanwoo approach with questionable eyes.

‘Are you asking for a handshake?’

Surely the resentment in this cursed town was strong.

Even if it were a white mountain cow, if it had been surrounded by the same monsters as before, it would not have been safe.

Baeksanwoo, who was approaching more and more, clearly showed signs of exhaustion.

‘I did help in time.’

Fortunately, she feels proud at the thought that it is not too late, and she reaches out her hand first.

But Baek Sanwoo grabbed her by the shoulder instead of his hand.

“Eh!?”

Yeliya was startled by the unexpected physical contact.

Baek San-woo glared at her with her eyes out of focus.

“San, Sanwoo-sama? Are you okay……”

Yelia, who was suddenly worried, asked, but Baek Sanwoo started to cry instead of answering.

“What did you do now?!”

* * *

Thought I had ruined everything, I strode closer and even screamed.

As soon as their eyes met the alluring red eyes, reason instantly returned.

Bloody eyes and white hair. A reaper of light holding a scythe and scattering torches.

There is only one person in Paradise Academia who possesses such a characteristic.

‘Why is the Redeemer sister here?’

The words that she introduced as she gathered her hands in some places lingered in her ears.

– This is the Temple of Canaan, a high-ranking judge of heresy belonging to the Judgment Bureau of Heresy, and my name is Jelia, the substitute.

The fact that it became so clear, a cold sweat ran down his back.

‘It was X. You’re a substitute!!!’

As much as the game itself advocates a high degree of freedom.

You can also ride the Priest, or Healer Route, in Paradise Academia.

Commonly known as the ‘Apostle of Light’ faction.

If you apply to that faction, you will inevitably form a close relationship with the various organizations of the temple.

Among them, the Heresy Tribunal was always treated as an exception.

Because they don’t give quests, and they aren’t easy to meet.

It is not a very familiar force among players with a fanatical image that is generally thought of.

As I said every time, I could say that I was rather reluctant.

However-

The exception was ‘Jeliya the Redeemer’.

As the strongest, best, and cruel judge in the Heretic Judgment Bureau, Yelia, who has been given the title of ‘Resender’, finally appears in the final chapter.

On that battlefield, she pierced through the forces of the Liberation Front with a single force.

It shows off his crazy fighting ability to cut off the head of the demon action leader without filtration.

‘If there was such an impact, it was even called a strategic hack in the forum.’

Am I bullying someone like that?

As soon as I realized the truth, fear began to engulf my body.

Right now, even just the last time, didn’t you witness a scene where he was tortured casually in front of me?

I managed to calm my trembling legs and started to work my brain to full power.

‘Baeksanwoo, calm down. If you choose the wrong option here, your head will fly right away.’

I put her shoulders first, then took a step back.

OK.

“Baek San-woo.”

In the voice that spit out like a muffled voice.

“What do you mean I screwed up?”

Red eyes flashed through the white hair.

Though there was an existence, the strong conviction that lies beyond him catches his gaze so that he cannot take his eyes off him.

‘Think, think!!’

To be honest, I was more afraid of the woman in front of me than the ghosts or psychic phenomena I had ever seen.

But even if you are dragged into the tiger’s den, you can live if you are alert!

I quickly and clearly analyzed my current situation.

‘This is unconditionally caught behind. Without that, it’s impossible.’

The underground village of Seorin, which was originally wanted, is a place that no one knew until Chapter 3 progressed.

A hidden dungeon was accidentally visited by the Redeemer after I entered?

That’s absurd.

In other words, I don’t know when this woman has been following me.

Even that, there was a high probability that it was carried out alone, rather than being followed by the Institutional Tribunal.

Because there were no attendants.

‘After all, it’s probably because of what happened in the gold mine last time.’

At that time, with the help of Irkan, he did not seem to be able to completely remove his suspicions, even though he escaped from the interference of the Security Council and the Heresy Tribunal.

Seriously, even if it were me, I’d try to investigate, but if even the dean came out to protect me, I’d be suspicious.

In the yard where even the prisoners were captured, there was no way I could not have known that the monsters I dealt with were Arachne and Aaron Nortonhale.

‘Damn it, I just thought it worked out just fine. The person who took the bait is supposed to be a substitute.’

No luck, no luck.

‘Shall I say that I am the guide of the hero? No, it’s a title that I just made up, and the Heretical Judge can’t figure it out.’

I kept thinking.

It sounded like a buzzing sound, how much he was rolling his head.

“Student Baek San-woo. You should answer me straight.”

A cold gaze shot out, and the sickle she was holding gleamed.

But I wasn’t scared.

‘This is the only way.’

The card I’m going to take out now is a winning card for her.

I sighed and shoved Aradwa into the ground like her.

“Rover Jeliya-sama. You’re making a big mistake right now. Besides, you’re following me.”

Lay your voice down and take your weight. The hostility had not yet been lifted, but I stepped forward more confidently.

“All plans have been ruined by the actions of the Redeemer. Now, Triston’s successor will not be able to follow in the footsteps of 300 years ago, nor will he receive any revelations. Besides, the Elder Lich that has been annihilated, it wasn’t just an undead. I did.”

You’re definitely annoyed, but let’s make a face that seems to be holding back.

With that brazen attitude, doubts cast on Elijah’s face.

‘great. It goes like this.’

I had a hunch that my strategy was working quite well, and I continued to speak.

“An important milestone that will give direction to those who will emerge, preserving the memories of the heroes of 300 years ago. The Redeemer has destroyed them.”

“What does that mean…”

“Can you take responsibility?”

I cut off Elijah’s words and asked firmly.

From now on, don’t even give me a chance to answer. It drives me like crazy and pulls me at my own pace.

When a lot of information is originally poured out at once, people cannot properly grasp the situation.

The substitute, Elijah, was no exception.

“Because who you are.”

At first, he was a substitute who was full of doubts, but his expression slowly became agitated. she licked her lips.

Now is the time to hit the wedge.

As I showed Aidan my strength last time, I put my hand on the heart, touched it, and grabbed Aradwa.

“I…….”

Quarreung-!!

A streak of lightning strikes the basement where there is absolutely no lightning.

A translucent shape of a bear that appeared with a magnificent thunder.

I ended my speech looking at the Lioner standing next to me.

“Apostle of Light.”

* * *

Player Baek Sanwoo.

The soul that dwelled in him was a hero of reversal who repeated his life dozens of times at Paradise School.

At one time, he was Triston’s successor.

An All-Master who once used all weapons.

A big hand in the basement that once dominated the back alleys.

Having gained numerous experiences and titles, it was now dwelling here.

And among them, the experience as an ‘Apostle of Light’ certainly existed.

So, Elijah had no choice but to kneel.

Baeksanwoo, no, the apostle of light.

It was because everything the man in front of him said was true.

“The mission the Light has given me is to guide Triston’s successor, Aidan Christopher, on the right path.”

As Baek San-woo spoke in a calm voice, her ability to see through lies shone again without fail.

The result is still true.

Elijah shook his head and shook his head almost to the ground.

His lips were dry, tingling with every breath he exhaled.

“Sa, apostle…! Please forgive my negligence!!!”

It was then that she realized why he was able to stand still even when he faced the Demon King’s altar.

It was a very simple reason.

Because Baeksanwoo was the apostle of light.

300 years ago, as one of the 5 heroes, the name that led the expedition to the path of light.

Naturally, the question of whether Baeksanwoo did not ask for help from the temple was also resolved.

Baek Sanwoo, no, the Apostle must have known.

The fact that the current state of the temple is very confusing.

If the Apostle of Light appeared and announced here, it would be like pouring oil into the still complicated situation.

‘The work of the temple must be completed by the temple. Do you think so… … !!!’

Elijah deeply felt his mistake.

“How can I receive the atonement…”

Tears welling up in the corners of my eyes fell again. She clenched the laurel wreath around her neck and trembled.

The consequences of erroneous misjudgment are usually disastrous. Because I had to pay a price for it.

It hindered the growth of the hero and blocked its future.

Disguised as the will of God, he obstructed the apostle of light.

It was an act that even the Redeemer Jeliya herself could never tolerate.

“wake up.”

The Apostle of Light spoke softly toward Elijah, who was unable to hide his agitation.

She carefully grabbed the hand that Baek San-woo had given her, and stood up.

“There is only one way to make up for every mistake.”

Elijah lifts his eyes moistened with despair and looks at the Baeksanwoo.

“You just need to put this place back in its original state.”

Restoring the dungeon? That couldn’t be possible.

“Does the Apostle know how?”

To Elijah’s question, the Apostle of Light answered with a calm voice.

“We need the ‘Immortal Core’ and the ‘Iscarriot Choir’ that maintain Festa Island.”

As soon as she heard those words, she felt as if she had been hit in the back of the head.

‘Do you even know the darkness of the temple!? ah… … light… … .’

Elijah’s eyes turned to the white mountain cow. Eternal faith now resided in the eyes that glistened with tears.

“If you’re the Redeemer, you know what I’m talking about.”

At those words, Elijah drew his name and said.

“Amina. It will be according to the will of the Apostle.”

“Then go up first. I still have work to do.”

Finally, the calm voice of the Apostle of Light. He slowly disappeared into the dark town.

The torch did not rise, but the only light was a faint torch held in one hand.

“The leader of the saints and the apostles of the three persons…”

In Elijah’s eyes, a huge halo appeared behind him.
