Chapter 413: I’m glad. Light Kiyoung has descended (4)

-The light will be with you! I will be with you! Don’t be afraid! Never be afraid! We can stand united in front of this great threat!!

-Republicans, listen to me! You must never believe the lies of the State!

-Believe what you see!

“It’s a pity that we can’t record this…”

It truly felt regrettable.

It was unfortunate that I wouldn’t be able to replay the situation.

I never would’ve imagined that I would be able to see such a sight at the end of that war, after all.

I had been informed of it to an extent, but the actual sight was more than what I imagined.

“I have to keep this stuff…”

“Lee Jihye, what did you just…”

“No. it’s nothing.”

“Ah… Okay.”

“More importantly, is the G.o.ddess’s Mirror recovery still not done?”

“Yes. Actually, there is still no progress, but it looks like we’ll find a way soon. I don’t know if it’s due to the influence of the magic that fell before, but it seems that the magic power blocking the communication system has weakened. Maybe it’ll recover naturally…”

“Please make its recovery our top priority.”

“Yes. I will try my best.”

“Trying isn’t enough. Make it work as soon as possible. Please.”

“Okay!”

‘I knew it. He really is really trash…’

The scene unfolding in front of me gave me gooseb.u.mps.

There was no scam as large-scaled as that one.

A horde of undead was exuding a terrifying sense of intimidation, even from a distance.

As they attacked our allies, they looked like an army of demons that had risen from h.e.l.l to end the humans of the continent.

It was rare to find an undead legion as large as the one before us.

The forces of light continued to collide against them to stop their advance.

It was sublime to watch ally troops surrounded by falling orbs of light gathering together to block the waves of darkness.

The moment was so great that it moved even me despite already knowing that it’s a hoax.

The series of situations that unfolded as if following a well-written script had a huge impact on the Republic.

Of course, it would.

With the situation becoming direr every second, it began to showcase which side’s holy and which side’s evil.

They’re probably just not showing it, but their minds must’ve been falling apart already.

The reason they still couldn’t move was that there was no decisive factor.

It was clear that everyone had already realized what action they had to take.

That was why the timing was very important.

Before the Republic’s troops were affected by the Demon Summoner’s theory of rapture, I had to remind them of their faith as much as possible.

‘This is a historical scene.’

Everyone would remember it even after the continent’s history had pa.s.sed 1,000 or 10,000 years.

That story, which continued from the Laios crisis to the present time, would forever remain and remembered as the heroic story of Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung.

‘And…’

My body trembled just by the thought of it.

As I watched the battlefield with a serious expression, I heard a voice talk to me again.

“Lee Jihye, the troops…”

“No. I don’t think it matters now. There would be no more meaning to anything else that I have to say. I did everything I could. It now boils down to whether or not they’ll be able to overcome their fears. For now, leave the minimum number of personnel needed in the command. Everyone else, including the rear unit, should head straight into the battlefield to support our allies.”

“Yes.”

“Please.”

Even the lieutenant in front of me seemed to think that they should also help as much as possible.

He must’ve been heavily burdened due to the current situation.

On his face, his sense of responsibility was clearly displayed.

‘It’s fortunate that there are many sublime humans on our side.’

I didn’t want to join that party either, but the most important thing at that point was to make the G.o.ddess’s Mirror work properly.

The fact that the undead was there meant that Jung Hayan had returned. Maybe she was heading to our location.

‘Then…’

The G.o.ddess’s Mirror would be able to work normally.

-Cardinal Lee Kiyoung of the State is a scammer and a deceiver. Do not be shaken by his words! Stop the State’s troops! Don’t let yourselves be manipulated!

‘He talks too much.’

It was then that the malfunctioning system returned.

“L-Lee Jihye.”

“I’m also watching now.”

“I don’t think there’s any more magic power left to keep it blocked.”

‘Good news.’

“Please strategically position it right away. We should capture as many of the struggling people in the G.o.ddess’s Mirror as possible. Some may not have grasped the details yet. It’s not a fight that can be overcome by the Republic’s troops or the State’s troops alone. The undead can only be defeated if the two factions work together. Please do it immediately.”

“Noted.”

If the undead did not distinguish between the forces of the State and the forces of the Republic, the situation could have been a little easier, but in order to properly trap the Demon Summoner Jin Qing, it was more effective to set our forces as the undead legion’s sole target.

It must be that she was picturing for them to move on their own accord, rather than pus.h.i.+ng them to move around.

It was undeniable that the picture changed depending on how one directed and edited existing facts.

Of course, I knew what picture he wanted most at that moment.

I immediately put my hands on the control unit.

Soon after, the G.o.ddess’s Mirrors began to appear everywhere.

Largely positioned as propaganda in the rear camp, the main hologram showed the struggles of an ally.

It didn’t show heroes such as Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung or Kim Hyunsung.

The scenes captured by the camera were only about ordinary soldiers. It was the image of small citizens who could evoke empathy and were in the same situation as the majority of the combatants.

‘This is the right thing to do.’

-Block them! James! James! Divine power!! Don’t let them in! We must protect the Honorary Cardinal!

-Oh, G.o.d. Oh, G.o.d!

-We can hold on. If we keep holding on, reinforcements will come.

-Take the injured back! Retreat!

-Isn’t there enough divine power?

-These dirty b.a.s.t.a.r.ds… Did you think you would be forgiven after doing this?

-Raise your s.h.i.+elds! Don’t lower your spears! The continent’s survival is at stake. Don’t let them push us back! Our families are just right behind us. If you get pushed here, everything would be over!

-Maria!

It had all been planned, but it was the reality for some.

The image of the common soldiers resisting the invading darkness rather than fighting for personal selfishness and profits was heartbreaking.

Some were bleeding and crying out for priests, while others risked their lives to defend their companions.

Heavily wounded soldiers and the priests who vomited blood as they tended to their wounds were visible.

Everyone was struggling in their own way, surrounded by a shroud of light.

‘This can work.’

It is not an image of someone far away.

The scenes that are currently showing in the G.o.ddess’ Mirror are none other than their own.

Who they really should be aiming the sword.

Who is right and wrong.

Scenes projecting their image continue to pa.s.s.

Naturally, I thought it would work. It should be enough to move the hesitating Republican forces.

‘Move.’

The idea that those who had faced each other as enemies would fight together felt too farfetched.

I thought whether it would be more appropriate to remove the distinction between allies and enemies, but…

‘Move!!’

His judgment couldn’t have been wrong.

That scene was orchestrated for opposing sides to join hands and become one.

‘Move!!’

-Block them! Sh*t!! Hold on as much as possible!

-Divine power…

-Respond while enduring as much as possible. The command post will probably send reinforcements soon…

-Raise your s.h.i.+eld. Don’t give up… Raise your s.h.i.+eld!!

-We can be one. Fight with us! Together! Fight with us!

-These dirty corpses!!

His judgment couldn’t be wrong.

‘Move!!’

“Move! You stupid Republicans! You still don’t know who the real enemy is? Do you think it will end when the State has been wiped out? Why won’t you all realize that their next target would be your stupid Republic! Fight with us! Dumb b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! What the h.e.l.l are you all still standing around for after witnessing what those corpses are doing? Raise your sword! Protect yourself and leave your name in history! You little puppet b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!”

I screamed my frustrations loudly and struck the table in front of me.

As I vented out my frustrations, I finally managed to witness the reaction we had been waiting for.

Due to my sudden outburst, the surrounding lieutenants looked at me with their eyes wide open, but I didn’t have the luxury to defend myself.

Checking what was currently happening as displayed by the G.o.ddess’s Mirror, anyone would’ve reacted as I did.

-Sh*t…

-d.a.m.n. The sword… raise your swords! We’ll start by driving out the undead!

-Help the State!

-That’s…

-It’s for

-We must support them with divine power! I hope that all of Varian’s believers who can afford it will follow me. We can save the fight against the State for later. holy knights, begin from the left! Move out!

-Shove them on the floor! Now!

-d.a.m.n… I also…

“Yes, that’s it. That’s it!”

I clenched my fists.

The small help spread out from the Varian believers and the holy knights were quickly transmitted to the rear’s large mirror.

It was still a small picture.

Alone, it wasn’t that valuable.

However, it was still necessary and important.

It would help those who didn’t know what to do in deciding.

Nothing could move such a large group as efficient as crowd psychology.

As if the North and South Koreas had become one, the wave of harmony slowly crashed onto the battlefield.

The video continued to promote that beautiful scene, encouraging unity between enemies and allies.

The undead also aimed at the Republic soldiers as if they had been waiting for that incredible timing. The war between humans and undead, dark and light, began.

It was an overused cliché that had been appearing since the old cartoon movies.

But it was also that effective.

“Would clichés be clichés for nothing?”

In fact, I didn’t even need to watch anymore.

The only question remaining was how to complete the big picture.

A picture that showed an easy end wasn’t good.

That role was no longer mine to uphold, but I could at least roughly predict what kind of picture Kiyoung was painting.

There was always something that followed those who were in crisis.

The content to be written in the history books that the future generations would study might be a bit groundless.
