Chapter 42: Destiny (3)

Jamie moved closer to Ricky and placed a hand on his chest.

A heartbeat is felt at regular intervals.

There seemed to be no problem with the heart.

By infiltrating mana and spreading it throughout his body, the condition was also confirmed.

"Everything is fine."

Muscles, bones, nerves and organs are all normal.

The brain didn't seem to have any problems.

However, there was definitely one problem.

It was divine power.

"Should it be a symptom of exhaustion?"

Ricky was the only one who blocked the explosion at the headquarters, even the super-large holy explosion caused by Kryon.

In the process, all of the Apostle-level divine power was exhausted, and he lost consciousness on the spot.

Maybe that's why, Ricky couldn't feel even the slightest bit of divine power.

"As an apostle, there will be recovery."

Seeing that not a single drop was recovered in a full month, it seemed that we should look at it a little longer.

It was fortunate that it did not seem to be life-threatening though.

If there was a big problem, I was thinking of joining the 'Gate of Reversecheon'.

Ricky's essence was an undead created by Jamie before he was an apostle, so if it is the gate of the Reverse Heaven, the recovery rate will be faster than now.

'Before that, the Pyro wouldn't have been there if it had been life-threatening.'

She would have tried to intervene somehow.

Without the apostle, it would be impossible for her to actively intervene in this land.

If there is an apostle, and if the conditions are met, he can descend on this earth at any time.

It will take a lot of causality, but the world is already in chaos.

Several religions broke the rules of the 12 gods and began to invade.

As for her, the causality rate must have piled up a lot.

"Come."

Jamie focused her divinity on her left hand.

clenched-

As golden sparks bounced, the room began to fill with divine power.

It's not a space designed for ceremonies like the place where I first met her, but it's the headquarters, there are apostles, and Jamie himself was a saint, so the conditions for his advent were full.

As Jamie's eyes dyed purple, the symbol of the Pyro spread out like a magic circle on the ceiling and floor.

Kwagga Gaga River!!

There was a huge shock that shook the entire church.

A commotion was heard from outside, but with the pope's shout, the commotion was silenced at once.

- Be quiet! Goddess comes down

Indeed, the pope seemed to be the pope.

Thanks to him who noticed the arrival of the Pyro, it seemed that nothing was bothering him.

'Still, aren't you curious that the god they believe in descends here?'

Aside from being the Pope, it's worth opening the door even if you're curious, but it's worth acknowledging the clergy's patience.

Anyway.

Jamie thought a lot as he felt a strong presence being created in this room.

'Certainly, the Pyro is stronger than I thought.'

Among the 12 gods, it was a god with the highest combat power.

It was just ridiculous to be isolated among the 12 gods despite having this kind of power.

You probably didn't have that much power.

Anyway, in the past, I felt like my body would break at the presence of it, but now it just feels like that.

It was because he had restored most of the power of his previous life.

flash-

A golden light shone intensely once.

Jamie frowned and thought.

'It's noisy.'

Since it is coming down from heaven to the earth, that amount of energy will be used, so it was a natural phenomenon.

As the light faded little by little, a woman was looking at Ricky with sad eyes.

"Poor child. It's a lot of trouble."

She gently stroked Ricky's cheek, then turned to look at Jamie.

"It has been a long time indeed."

"Long time no see."

"Your words are very short. I never thought he was a cheeky kid."

"Well, I am not in a position to kneel like I did back then."

It wasn't that I had good feelings in the first place.

There were no direct conflicts in her previous life, but she was also a member of the 12 gods.

That's what Jamie has to deal with.

However, I had a connection with Ricky, and I thought I could take advantage of her situation, so I left it alone.

"Do you believe in that frugal power?"

"It's okay ."

Jamie smiled and opened her purple eyes.

Violet black mana began to flow violently through his skin.

The temperature of the room soared in an instant, to a level so great that it even pierced through the divinity of the goddess.

And the Pyro.

' What happened?'

I was amazed at Jamie's power.

She couldn't believe her eyes and her senses.

The power emitted by only humans is like... .

'It seems like 12 gods are ahead.'

It didn't feel like a god because it wasn't a god, but that black mana was so violent that it seemed to invade even their divinity.

okay.

A long time ago that I can't even remember now.

Just like a human who existed to kill the 12 gods.

'That guy was said to be his successor.'

It was said that he was not a direct successor, but inherited that power mentally.

But, is it possible to obtain a power equal to that of a god with just such a thing?

that's just

'Diablo Volfir.'

I could only think of it that way.

Even if it were any other human being, she knew that there was only one human who had that kind of power and was strong enough to oppose the gods.

It's embarrassing.

It seems that the monster that tried to drive them out of this land has reappeared.

The Pyro was frankly afraid.

" Where did you get that power?"

She asked as quietly as possible.

Jamie felt a little cathartic at her startled look.

It was because the reaction he had when he found out that the object he thought was a bug turned out to be the same as him.

They feel alive because of these peripheral stimuli.

"Where do you get it? That's how I grew up."

"It sounds funny. yes, 6 years. I remember you back then. Because I signed a contract."

"You should have remembered what I said back then. Did you say you believed in me yourself? That's why I don't know why you're dissatisfied even though you've grown up like this."

Pyro frowned at that cheeky remark, but he didn't reply because it wasn't wrong.

As he said, it was none other than herself who reached out her hand to join us.

It has also grown really well.

The problem was that his power was enough to threaten even himself.

'If you betray me, there will be no answer to this either.'

However, if he gave a warning, he could lose his initiative, so the Pyro said in a calm voice.

okay. what else is important If you've become this strong, that's enough.

"It's nice to be cool."

therefore. Why did you come to me? I don't think I came here just to show off my strength.

Slowly, I decided to stop scratching her nerves and get to the point.

"I think I know roughly why you came. is not it?

"Are you talking about Janice?"

"Zenith is also Zenith, but quite a few religions have attacked the North this time. The Kingdom of Seldam was targeted by the Church of Nihru and was in a very difficult state. What the hell happened in heaven? It's not unrelated to that either, so I'd like to be honest with you.

So many gods united and struck the North.

Even those who were not allies were involved.

Is that all?

The reason Ricky became like this was because their divinities were united and exploded.

It was clear that something was going on in heaven.

I don't think the Pyro isolated from them will know everything, but at least they should know the flow.

"Why the Nihmu Church, those bastards touched my people. I want you to tell me. I am a little bit angry."

Hmm. To put it simply, Zenith's politics worked."

"Did politics work?"

"As you know, the gods who attacked the North this time were all taking root across the central line of the continent. Janice insisted that they have more believers in order to keep the 'South' in check.

control the south

In other words, it was talking about keeping Ra in check.

To that end, Zenith was in a position to approach the gods across the central line, invade the northern continent, and absorb the believers there to increase their power.

I didn't understand.

It's not good for Ra to have to share it like that.

Even Satan can kneel down in 10 seconds, and Zenith can contain the monster by increasing the number of believers.

Clearly there are other purposes.

"What about the other gods? I think the marginalized will be quite upset."

"I don't know about their situation. What is certain is that once the five of them are together, they don't completely trust each other.

"Why?"

Well. On the surface, they say they keep Ra in check, but in reality, isn't it because each of them has a different reason?"

for their own reasons.

Jamie frowned.

I don't know what it is.

Even the Pyro didn't know.

It was fortunate that they weren't completely united though.

It means you can separate at any time, so there is no need to deal with the five.

"What are you going to do? Since the apostle had reached that point, the power of the Pyro Church must have been greatly weakened."

"Are you talking like someone else? Does this child belong to your family too?"

"You're not going to give it back to me, are you?"

huh. Of course, I plan to give it back to them. Dare to take my child in my land... It is absolutely unforgivable."

"Good."

"What do you mean?"

"When I deal with the Nihui Cult, I ask you to stop the other guys from intervening."

" Are you sure?"

Myself?

Jamie said with a smirk.

"Try it here."

As black mana gushed out, the Pyro frowned.

"To attract."

"Well, you don't have to worry."

Jamie said with a smile on her face.

"Because I never want to lose this time."

no matter who the opponent was.

* * *

what? That gray shield."

uh ? I wasn't there."

Beiros and Anne landed in front of the huge gray shield that surrounded the capital Fibre.

"Very powerful."

When Beiros lightly put his finger on the shield, a spark burst out with a strong resistance.

It seemed that he could not easily break through it even with his own strength.

It was the same with Anne, as if she didn't allow outsiders to invade.

"Damn it. Do I have to wait here endlessly?"

"Uh ."

I hope my ankles will be caught in front of my nose.

Arrived at maximum speed, where did the master leave his subordinate and go?

Beiros slammed the shield hard with an annoyed face.

bang-!!

Then, the shield retained its power and returned it to Beiros.

"Big!"

His body flew several meters and crashed.

"It even has reflexes."

Ann looked at the shield with astonished eyes.

She was able to understand anything at a glance, but she couldn't figure out what kind of structure it had as much as the shield.

What was inevitable was the power of protection created by sacrificing two members of the royal family as living sacrifices.

No matter how great a scholar's talent was, it was impossible to grasp even the transcendent power.

Damn it!! Just pierce it with power?"

Ann stopped him, as if annoyed Beiros would turn to the main body right away.

"I don't think that's a very good idea."

Why?

"I don't know about anything else, but this shield reacts to 'malicious'. I don't know what kind of malice it is, but hostility only increases the strength of the shield."

So. Every time I get more annoyed, the shield gets stronger, you mean?"

Yes.

"Very annoying So what? Bing- look around?"

"There's nothing we can do, so let's do it."

I couldn't do anything about the shield right now, so I decided to look around and find a way.

It was the moment Beiros took Anne on her shoulders and soared again.

"You don't have to go back."

A priest in black robes who did not know where he appeared.

With a necklace in the shape of a pupil hanging around his neck, he held out his palm and said.

"The two of you shall return to nothingness."

The power of emptiness rushed towards the two of them.

and.

What are you doing, this human cub!

Beiros smashed the head of the Priest of Nihru at once.
