Chapter 796: The Last (29)

It was f.u.c.king sorrowful.

It sounded sad even to me. A voice that felt urgent but also filled with longing.

I could say that it made it impossible to betray the faith I sent.

I was feeling a little anxious, but…

‘I have to believe in him. f.u.c.k.’

We were united with trust. I would send a new item soon. Honestly, I wondered if it was right to send one right now… I didn’t think there was anything bad about preparing it since I had to give something important.

Honestly, it seemed that it served as an opportunity to look back on whether I’d been cold to him. I got lost in thoughts while tapping my thighs.

“Junior Lee Kiyoung? Junior Lee Kiyoung?”

“Ah… Yes, Benignore? I’m sorry.”

“Did you work late at night yesterday?”

“Something like that.”

“You work too hard, junior Lee Kiyoung. What if you get sick working like this? Still, you have to rest. Health is a precious possession, isn’t it?”

“Yes. I think you’re right. You were talking about the recruitment of Elune earlier, right?”

“Yes! It’s going very, very smoothly, junior Lee Kiyoung. Actually, Elune came out a little hard, but… I just threatened her, saying I would tell the seniors. But this time, the World Tree was destroyed, and the elves don’t have anywhere to go. Her statue has disappeared, and the temple has completely disappeared… Elune is not in any position to be picky.”

“Ah… I see.”

“I scared her asking what the elves were going to do, so she just quietly went down on her knees, you know.”

‘Did she really need to get down on her knees?’

It seemed that they didn’t have the same relations.h.i.+p that Kim Hyunsung and I had, which was united with trust. I already didn’t have a good feeling from the time Benignore guaranteed that would be possible, but she was really…

‘The devil itself.’

Perhaps the heavens scouted Benignore because they were concerned that the hostile forces would become stronger.

“When I told her it was too late now, she held on to my skirt… and I scolded her because I got embarra.s.sed. She shouldn’t have crossed the line, being too unfriendly… Tsk. Anyway, you can rest a.s.sured, junior Lee Kiyoung. Elune was educated for sure. She probably won’t cause much trouble even when she comes here. Oh, and Lauren decided to join us. Is it okay to bring her here?”

“Yes. You can call her at the next meeting. The Federation seems to be recovering to some extent… We have to talk about which direction we’ll take in the future. Bring Elune with you too…”

“The problem is the seniors.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m not sure yet, but it seems like they are suspicious of me… No, rather than suspicion, they are asking to bring the G.o.d of sunset to their side quickly. For now, I’ve been telling them that he is expressing his intention to reject it… but as if they think I’m incompetent, they keep saying that they will contact him directly instead, you know.”

“We have to be careful with that. It would be better to say that the contract is in progress.”

‘If Hyunsung comes up here, we’ll be back to square one.’

“I don’t know who they’re calling incompetent. I’m suffering right now, but if I get a chance, I’ll kick them all.”

“…”

“…”

‘I think she’s a little drunk…’

I didn’t know if it was because Elune knelt, but her head was a little stiff, and her body was tense. She seemed to be drunk with the feeling that she had become a tyc.o.o.n.

‘What should I do with her…?’

Perhaps, after spending a long time with Belial, she had been unwittingly influenced. I started to understand why parents in normal families said we shouldn’t make bad friends.

“How about you? Can you stop Jihye?”

“It depends on what the humans in the world do. Either way, I think we’ll sustain some damage. I wanted to tell you that I think we need to increase the budget for damage recovery a bit. I believe the Head of the finance team can do it, right, Dialugia?”

“…”

“She agrees.”

“Ugh… We have a tight budget right now, but should I send an oracle too? It would be better to watch the situation, right? Surprisingly, humans will be able to overcome it, but we don’t know Lee Jihye’s true intentions yet too.”

“I think you should send an oracle at a better timing. There’s one guy who bothers me, though…”

I could see Benignore shaking her head firmly as I drew a line across my throat.

“No. You already know this. It’s forbidden for a G.o.d to be personally involved in a human death. If an oracle kills a human, the system will penalize you. The system may reject our independence.”

I remembered coming to that conclusion early when I started to grasp the system of the continent.

“I’m telling you this now, but if that was possible… when you were a cancer lump on the continent, no, when I was thinking of such a misunderstanding… wouldn’t we have sent an oracle like that already? Ah! Of course, I’m not saying I was the one who would’ve. Perhaps Elune… or Lauren… It’s just that not everyone had a good relations.h.i.+p with you.”

It was a conclusion about why the superiors didn’t send an oracle directed at me.

“Well, the demon is close. Please mention the existence of a demon who has a good face and deceives people. Not right now, though. I’ll tell you when.”

“I-I don’t know what you mean, but I got it. S-Still, it’s not good to go in that direction, junior Lee Kiyoung. The end of the G.o.ds, who were jealous or envious of humans, or simply shouted that they didn’t like them, were often the worst. You should also mature because humans are not in the same league as us. We’re respectable G.o.ds now. We have a suitable cla.s.s for that. Shouldn’t we have to keep our dignity as someone of high rank?”

I guaranteed that Benignore would have no dignity, considering she made Elune kneel.

“The normal procedure is all about training, but… well, I can’t help it. You are a unique case. It would be better if I, your senior, teach you to step by step!”

‘I want to go down quickly.’

“Then, let’s cheer up again today. Let’s put our hands together. Now! Head of the finance team, come here too!”

“…”

“One, two, three!”

“Fighting…”

“Fighting!!”

“F-F…”

Dialugia looked at us like we were pathetic, unable to cheer to the end. Benignore’s face became more elated.

That seemed to have been the source of her confidence. She straightened her back and hummed. She grabbed coffee with one hand and wore pointed sungla.s.ses.

I was a little worried that she might cause some trouble, but at least Elune and Lauren decided to get on the same boat. They’d cover her errors to some extent.

“Then contact me if you have any questions, junior Lee Kiyoung!”

“Yes.”

She was a little weird, but…

‘But I’m glad I have her.’

I thought a lot about whether I should really hire Benignore, but I honestly thought she was helpful. She knew a lot of information I didn’t, and honestly, she helped in this kind of thing as well.

‘She’s definitely a worthy G.o.ddess.”

The same was true of her remarks about the cla.s.s. Her mindset itself that the present world and the heavens should be separated felt a bit mature.

‘Right. Why did I pay attention to a kid who’s like a stone in the street? I should display the dignity of a higher cla.s.s.’

There was no change in the thought that he should be hit with the mace of light and justice, but that wasn’t my job. That was the humans’ duty. Wouldn’t Kim Hyunsung crush him even if I didn’t?

After moving to the desk by dragging the chair forward with my feet, I started to look at Kim Hyunsug again.

‘I got excited all day because of this.’

At that moment, I understood the feelings of people waiting for the morning time drama.

It had been a while since he arrived at the temple. He was visibly nervous in front of the statue.

Of course, he was already crying, and he even seemed to wipe off the b.l.o.o.d.y tears of the statue. The voice that was deliberately cut off due to the meeting continued to be heard.

-Are you okay, Kiyoung? What’s wrong with you?

-…

-Please answer me. I’m so anxious. I’m so anxious.

-…

-Please let me know what you mean by you believing in me. If it’s something I can solve, I’ll do it right away. No, I’ll visit you myself. If you’re in trouble over there, I’ll come over. Please open the door! Let me know if you need help!

-…

-Don’t you know I’m stupid? Please… Please, Kiyoung… Please explain what’s going on and what you need.

-…

-d.a.m.n…

After arriving, I was a little worried about him shouting without a break for a full day, but that only proved that our bond was still strong.

When nothing had changed in the statue, I could see him grabbing his sword and trying to head out of the temple. It seemed that he judged that there might be feedback in other temples.

‘It’s about time for him to come. No, has he been waiting already?’

As expected, I could see the people waiting outside the temple.

‘Have a taste of doom.’

I wanted to see this scene with the Song guy and the villains rus.h.i.+ng to Kim Hyunsung, who went out of the temple.

‘It’s magnificent. Magnificent.’

Wasn’t he dressed neatly? He even had his own griffon next to him as if he had just arrived.

Anyone could see that it looked unnatural. The logo of the riding aids on the griffon was also set so that it was clearly visible, and how many people would be fooled by such an unnatural appearance?

f.u.c.k, you think that will come into the furious Hyunsung’s eyes?

-Blue Guild Master. Nice to meet you.

-…

-I am Song Sookyung of the New Continent Protection and Management Committee. I’m sorry for the rudeness that we suddenly came…

-…

-It is a great honor to meet you like this. The timing isn’t that great, but I have something that I must tell you…

It was as expected. He walked as if he couldn’t see the b.a.s.t.a.r.d. If they weren’t inside the site of the temple, I think he would have spread his wings or run.

-Please, can you give us a moment, Sunset Swordsm-

‘f.u.c.k, Hyunsung. I’m impressed.’

He wasn’t even glancing at him. The way he was grinding his teeth and continuing to move was amazing. f.u.c.k…

-Blue Guild Master! Blue Guild Master!

The sly rat b.a.s.t.a.r.d gradually looked less confident. I could see that he thought that it wasn’t supposed to turn out like that.

That wasn’t what he was picturing, but f.u.c.k, our Hyunsung never stopped at his friend’s b.l.o.o.d.y tears.

-Sunset Swordsman! Please listen to me for a second!

It was then that the guy who was keeping the line moved in front of him.

Like the main character in the movie, he blocked the road ahead of Kim Hyunsung with his arms wide open.

His eyes might contain his will to make him listen to his voice even at the risk of his own life, but he didn’t seem to think that a situation where he had to actually risk his life would come.

On the one hand, I got a little anxious. He got a bit of a soft spot, and I didn’t think he’d be able to be cold…

However, it seemed that I was worried for nothing.

Kim Hyunsung stopped and looked at him.

He spoke firmly.

-…

-…

-Screw off.
