Was it because I subdued the gods who were in charge of the main roles one after another?
The gods below me conveyed their intention to cooperate through Ganshu and Erginus, even though I didn’t say anything.
As expected, it’s faster to show an example than to talk, whether they’re human or god.
They only become more nimble when they’re in a situation where they’re about to get screwed.
After listening to the reports coming up one after another, I was satisfied, but after a while, I encountered a huge problem.
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
“I think Alun Yeong-ae should stand in front of the other apostles.”
Erginus called together Ganshu, the pervert apostle, Faby, and others related to the gods and confidently spouted out crazy things.
“Are you addicted to the smell of chicken coops? What kind of crazy nonsense are you talking about?”
“I don’t want to show you up at official events either. I don’t want to make you give a speech in front of many people! I know what you'll say in front of everyone, so why call me crazy!"
"Ugh. What a stupid way of thinking. Do you think you've done anything good by embracing a rotten woman for hundreds of years?"
"Listen carefully! Lucy Arlen! I've been called a sympathetic idiot by you, and my only lover has been accused of smelling like a chicken coop! And yet, can you say that I don't know about the disaster your tongue will bring!?"
Erginus's shout, filled with anger, made me lick my lips.
Why do you insist on putting me in front when you know so well?
If we're not careful, the Pope won't be the problem? A war between religions could break out because of the Messaggi skill!
"It's truly miserable to have to say this, but this is the reality. Lucy Arlen. You have no choice but to step forward."
"Just listen to what I have to say, employer. You'll be convinced, damn it."
I took a step back from Caria’s words and wiggled my eyebrows, suggesting that I should talk.
Erginus thanked Caria and placed a map of the continent in the middle of the table.
“Thanks to the efforts of Alun Youngae a while ago, most of the gods promised to cooperate. I don’t know what their true intentions are, but at least they are outwardly cooperative. However, the problem here is that the opinions of the gods cannot be the opinions of the earth.”
Unlike the past when the gods stayed by the side of humans, the gods of today do not have influence over ordinary believers.
They can convey their intentions through a few people, including the apostles, but they cannot force their opinions on the believers.
“The idea of uniting in the face of a world crisis is good! However, not everything will be solved just because the idea is good!”
Until the end of the Age of Mythology, those who converted to religion tended to lack a sense of reality.
With the gods always by your side and solving your problems, where would you have to worry about reality?
However, as the age of myths came to an end, things changed.
There was a lack of money. There was no land. There was no place to pray. The number of believers decreased.
Even when the gods were on earth, everything that was taken for granted became no longer taken for granted.
In this situation, maintaining faith was not something that could be done with just devotion, so one by one, religions began to take on commercial aspects in order to survive.
“The efforts they made to survive were not bad. The problem is that religions began to see other religions as competitors as they became commercialized.”
The word coexistence could not exist in the land where chaos had taken hold due to the shock of the disappearance of the gods.
In order for one religion to survive, it had to suppress the other religion.
“The numerous religions that currently exist on earth do not like each other. In particular, the level of conflict among those who reside in similar areas is serious. They call each other heretics and try to eliminate each other in any way they can.”
The religious conflict that has continued for hundreds of years cannot be resolved with a single word from God.
No matter how desperately the messenger of God advocates for peace, it is impossible for the conflict to be resolved overnight.
This world is in danger?
The evil spirit is resurrected and is trying to destroy the continent?
The peace that has lasted for hundreds of years will be shattered overnight?
Who would believe such a thing?
The place where they live will be peaceful yesterday, today, and tomorrow, so why should they believe that their daily lives will be turned upside down overnight?
“Humans are more intelligent than many people think, and also more stupid than many people think. They will never believe in a world in crisis unless something absurd happens right before their eyes. For example, unless an messenger of the Lord suddenly appears.”
My very existence is evidence that this world is in crisis.
That is why I must stand at the forefront and persuade everyone.
It is inevitable, regardless of the fact that the word persuasion is far from the human being Lucy Allen.
After hearing Erginus's explanation, I sighed and squeezed my face.
Oh. Are all the gods just sloppy writers!?
Why can't you convince even one of your followers!
You bastards are gods after doing that!? Aren't you ashamed of being praised for doing something like that?!
<If you say something like that, it will come back to you. Didn't even the Lord not properly persuade you?>
'That's because the Lord is a sloppy pervert!'
<...Huh. Huh?>
Come to think of it, I've never seen a god's representative not being persecuted in this or that myth!?
Why do you put trials on someone who does your will?
If you hire someone, you should create an environment where they can do their job properly, why do you put the burden on their back first!
"...Can't a sloppy saintess do it instead? She also has a little bit of the sloppy divinity of the Lord."
"Young-ae. I would also like to reduce your suffering, but these days, the symbolism of the face of the Jushin Church is too strong. If the representative of the Jushin Church, who is hated by other religions, stands in the middle, it will only cause resentment.”
Is it really only me? I touched my forehead, worried about what would happen in the future, and the perverted apostle smiled faintly.
“Don’t worry, Young-ae. We will help you.”
I didn’t trust him at all.
“I’m sure Gansh will actively cooperate.”
“Personally, I want to see this guy in trouble.”
“I know he will do well even if you say it like this.”
I really didn’t trust him at all.
*
Even while he was swaying his worries about what was about to happen while swinging his mace, Erginus’s plan was progressing at every moment.
At the command of the various gods, apostles from powerful religions from all over the place came to the kingdom.
He said it was because of the symbolism of being the first place to be attacked by the evil god Agra, but in reality, it was an extremely realistic reason that it was easy to manage.
Normally, the apostles would not prefer to leave their own territory, but this time it was an exception.
It was because the saint of the Jushin Church cooperated with the apostles of the Arts and Magic Churches to put pressure on them, and their god also gave orders.
Despite that, there were some who did not cooperate, but since Erginus said he would take care of it, I didn’t have to worry about it.
I didn’t have the energy to worry about it in the first place.
The problem was what was right in front of me.
“You are as beautiful as ever, Young-ae.”
I dismissed the smiling pervert apostle and entrusted my body to Erin.
He must have been wearing the armor and cloak he usually wore, but it felt different just because someone else had touched him.
“I hope you get a good result, Miss.”
As I left Erin’s greeting behind and went outside, the pervert apostle and Faby escorted me.
On one side was the saint who was praised on the continent. On the other side, there was an artist that many nobles were looking for.
It was a sight that anyone would envy, but only one thought came to my mind.
I want to run away right now!
My stomach feels like it's going to burst!
I haven't felt this way since the academy took a break, so I'm glad I have to walk into hell again!
"Alright, Young-ae. I'll open the door."
"... Wait."
I took a deep breath as I blocked the pervert who was about to put his hand on the door.
It's okay. There's no problem. Just go in there and prove that I'm the pervert who made this brat his apostle.
The rest can be left to the pervert who made this brat his apostle! I made a plan with my grandfather yesterday!
"Okay, Young-ae. Let's go."
I smiled awkwardly when I saw Faby's bright smile.
Ah. Why can't I just beat up all the kids in there and then force them to admit it?!
It seems like it would be easier to suppress all the apostles than to persuade them with words!
- Woohoo. How can Al-Run Yeong-Ae be this cute?
I frowned at the sound from above my head, and then the tiny Fairy Queen appeared in front of me.
- It would be nice if you showed me this side of yourself more often.
“I don’t want to see you often. I think I’m going to catch the smell of the chicken coop.”
- You’re really going too far! You changed Erginus-sama’s title, but why is mine the same?
Well, I guess you should ask the sloppy Lord about that.
Maybe he won’t give you an answer even if you ask him. The Messagaki skill even chews up the skills that the Lord gave you.
- Don’t be so annoying! I’m here to help you! Even though I look like this, I’m still amazing, right? I’ll put up with some unpleasant things when I’m by your side!
Kwaang!
“Chattering, chattering, chattering. Aren’t you coming in? You little brat. I came here to waste time because of you.”
The one who came out of the door was a man with short, red hair.
He had a few scars on his face, which was impressive, but I don’t remember them.
He must be some kind of mob that doesn’t even appear in the game.
In Messagaki’s terms, is he a swindler?
“Does this look like something you can endure? Is this all a swindler can endure?”
- Oh my. Is it okay if I tell you about his passionate night?
“Hey. Can’t you see the person?”
I think while looking at the man who is frowning.
Thanks to this mob, the good mood has already been ruined.
So I guess it’s okay if I do whatever I want.
It’s not my fault! This kid started the fight first!
Right?
“I don’t know what kind of useless story you’re talking about.”
I scatter the fairies around. My vision changes.
“I’ll say it quickly...”
The other person is ignoring me. Also, he doesn't even think that he's going to be attacked.
After confirming that, I reach out.
The man, whose muscular body didn't seem to be for decoration, tried to react to my movements, but my new vision confirmed even that.
The path of my hand twists and I grab the man's face.
He's an apostle after all. Even if I do it a little roughly, he won't die.
I put strength into slamming his face into the floor and trampled on the man's groin as he struggled to get away.
"Okay♡ I did what you wanted, so do you like it?♡ Do you like it when you flinch?♡ You disgusting pervert♡"
I finished it off by kicking his chin and raised the corners of my mouth as I looked at the apostles' wary gazes.
"Hmph♡ What the. You sloppy punks♡ Are you scared?♡"
This really suits me.
