Possessing Nothing

I could hear Theos' eyebrows making an embarrassing face.

He looks back, surprised. Theos hesitated for a moment, looking back at Lee Sung-min and Abel, he bowed his head.

“…… The adult…… wants to apologize in person. ”

“Without a face? ”

“I'm sorry."

“Which wagon? ”

At this rate, Abel's attitude softened a little. Theos expressed a sense of embarrassment, but he approached one of the chariots escorted by paladins with Lee Sung-min and Abel.

A white wagon that is no different from any other wagon. However, as Lee Sung-min and Abel approached the wagon, the attitude of the nearby paladins changed.

Theos looks up at the paladins holding hands on the weapons he's equipped.

“…… perhaps……. ”

“Don't worry, none of this shit is gonna happen. I'm an old, shitty wizard, but I'm not a bored, oblivious man. Do I, the Wizard's Guild Master, give a damn about the saints of the Church? ”

“A little…… choice of words……. ”

“Can I open it and go in? ”

Abel is dead.

Theos sighs and opens the carriage door. Lee Seong-min stood behind Abel's back and looked inside the wagon.

At that moment, he doubted his eyes.

Abel claps his eyes together, tucking them inside his sleeve and loosening his arms.

Then he turned his head and looked back at Theos. Theos smiles bitterly as if he had expected Abel and Lee Sung-min to make that face.

“What a joke……. ”

“I'm not kidding. ”

Theos shakes his head as Abel tries to spit it out.

[…… hmm.]

Even Heju didn't expect this situation.

Eventually, Lee Sung-min and Abel entered the carriage and sat down with the saint of the church.

Although Lee Sung-min had never heard of an adult in his past life, he listened to stories about an adult he knew for three days in a wagon with Abel.

It is certain to exist, but little is known about adults. Age, gender. Among many paladins, priests and worshipers of the church, few know the identity of saints.

However, the sacred power of the saints was so small that they could surpass the church's headquarters.

I didn't expect an old successor who devoted his life to faith. By the way, it was not natural to expect a girl in a white nun's uniform with an athletic face.

“My name is Teresa. ”

The girl opened her mouth. She pushes the hooded nun back slightly.

Abel could not say anything because he did not think that the saints of the church would be such a young girl.

Despite such uncomfortable silences, Teresa was still full of curiosity, looking at Abel and Lee Sung-min.

“I've never met the Guild Master before. You're the least popular person I know. Right?"

“W-what should I call you?" ”

“You can call me Terasa. Priests and paladins treat me hard, but you're not a member of the Church. ”

“Mister...? ”

“Do you prefer to call me brother? ”

A tilting head question made Abel even more puzzling.

He wasn't used to talking to someone like this.

“Abel... I think I can call him Abel..." ”

Teresa grins as Abel mutters. Then, she looked at Lee Sung-min.

Teresa laughs as she sees the ghost face mask that Lee Sung-min is wearing.

“Scary mask. Why are you wearing that? ”

“I have my reasons. ”

“I know who you are. ”

Teresa opens her chest. My breasts were barely developed, but I stepped forward a little bit.

“Masks on, spears on. There's only one celebrity with this feature. You're a pimp, aren't you?”

“Yes.”

Lee said without hiding it. You're right. Teresa mutters in a small voice. He seemed quite proud that he got the answer right.

“You and we have a strange connection from the north. No, should I say my relationship with Kim Jong-hyeon? You were part of the North Punitive Force. ”

“There was a friction with the church's punitive force. ”

“I apologize for that. I can't say that I represent the church.... ”

“I don't have it in my mind. ”

Lee Sung-min replied, shaking his head.

“I had no choice. My side lacked a lot of explanations. ”

“Still, I'm grateful to you. Then... you saved the lives of the paladins who joined the Punitive Force. Even though many people have died... ”

It's inevitable. Teresa mutters. The subjugation in the north is a failure. The troops of each party who participated in the subjugation took heavy damage.

There was a lot of damage to the punitive force that was sent from the church. One of the High Septon died, and the High Septon and the paladins were killed.

“I've heard stories outside the wagon, Abel. We are going to wipe out Kim Jong-hyun, the Black Wizard, who committed a terrible evil act, with the same meaning as Abel. ”

“Too few troops, isn't it? ”

The question was Lee Sung-min.

“I don't know how much I know about Kim Jong-hyeon's low power, but Kim Jong-hyeon isn't just a black wizard. He is the Demon King, and the Lord of the Dead Knights and hundreds of Deathknights follow him. ”

“Jonghyun Kim is not moving around the city where he first attacked. By the time we get to the city, Germoud will be a living hell. Tens of thousands of dead will wander undead, unable to escape beyond the Wall. ”

“Of course.”

Teresa nods. Teresa's face is a little stiff, whether she imagined a horrific story going back and forth in the landscape. But she answered without hesitation.

“Even so, I can't let Kim Jong-hyun go. Over time, the more damage Kim Jong-hyun will do. ”

“Is that the will of God? ”

Lee Seong-min asked while looking at Teresa. It was because it reminded me of the month after we joined together with the godless as shareholders who said it was the will of the Spirit.

Maybe the God of the Church is like a spirit. It was a question of such a question, but Teresa only opened her eyes as if Lee Sung-min's question was strange.

“No, this is not the will of God. It's the will of the Church. We... we don't follow the will of God. Do you understand a group called the church? ”

“Somewhat. ”

“The Catholic Church and the Paladin are divided into two categories: One is a group of second-class people like me. They lived in another world, but they were summoned to Eria. When we were summoned to Eria, we lost our spiritual connection to the original god. Thanks to you, we can't hear God. Only our original sacred power became our own strength. ”

And the other kind are the priests and paladins who serve the gods of Eria.

Priests who allow the acolytes to enter and exit under the mountain of the Mesh belong to such synagogues. Of course, not all priests of God belong to the church.

“The gods of this world, they don't force us to do anything. So…… a group called churches is basically a polytheist. Most of them are different. So, even if someone hears God's voice, the church doesn't mean that kind of behavior as a group. ”

“So, it is not the will of God, but of the Church, that we want to proceed with this subjugation? ”

“Well, let's just say Kim Jong-hyun killed too many people. The people who died to him are not leaving this world, they are leaving it undead. Someone has to stop him. ”

Theresa's words were universally correct. Kim Jong-hyun is a wicked person who does terrible things, no matter who sees the world.

Evil man.

When I think of him. Lee Sung-min reflectively recalled the white sogo. Maybe she's on her way here.

Kim Jong-hyun did something that anyone in the world would say was evil.

Already he has killed thousands of people from the north, and in Germoud he has led the Desknight to destroy a city. If someone doesn't stop him, Kim Jong-hyun will continue to North Korea and kill tens of thousands more.

“What is your position in the church? ”

Teresa blinked at Lee Sung-min's question. Theresa, who was tilting her head, replies after a brief thought.

“A little bit, to say the least, but I'm the only one called an adult in church. ”

“Do you know about the end? ”

Lee Sung-min asked. Abel glanced at her. He takes Gries out and holds him in his hand.

If this conversation was to call the Apostle of the Apostle of the Apostle of the Apostle, it had to be settled to stop him.

In that tension, Teresa opens her eyes and tilts her head.

“What's that? ”

Lee Sung-min glanced at Abel. It's because I couldn't tell if her answer was sincere or false.

Abel glared at Teresa with both eyes.

Teresa was not an unthinkable fool to count the depths of her questionable gaze. She raises her eyes at Lee Sung-min and Abel.

“I'm not so bold as to lie about what I don't know. ”

[Does the church not know about the end?]

Lee Sung-min sent a message to Abel. Abel touches his chin and thinks.

[Those who know the end of the world are limited. Me and my brother learned about the end while devoting our lives to Gries…… Vampire Queen is Maan who sees the future, and Atheist knows about the end due to direct contact with the spirits.]

[Envirus dedicated his life to Gries?]

[Yeah, even though you haven't used Gris since.]

Abel grunts.

Teresa really didn't know about the end.

However, it is premature to think that the whole church would be ignorant of the end, not Teresa.

[Even if the adult doesn't know about the end, it doesn't matter much. She and the church must be on their way to stop Jonghyun Kim.]

“Earrings.”

Teresa, who did not know that Abel and Lee Lee were having a secret conversation, called Lee Sung-min with a clear expression.

“You're weird. ”

“What's the point? ”

“You feel a lot of things. The word chaos, among all the people I've been through in my life...... I don't think anyone fits that description as well as you do. ”

“I have my reasons. ”

“Don't you need help? ”

Teresa smiles and asks. In saying that, Lee Sung-min was not answerable immediately.

He looks into her eyes to find out the truth of what Teresa said.

Teresa's eyes glisten and glow, as if they were filled with countless starlight. At least Lee could not find anything evil hidden in her eyes.

“I can help you. ”

“In what way? ”

Seong-min smiled and asked. Theresa raises her hand slowly toward Lee Sung-min.

“Purify. ”

“…… purification? ”

“what's jumbled up inside your body. If you let me, I can do it. ”

“What do you want from me? ”

“No, no, no, I'm not saying this because I want to. You look troubled, dearie. And I'm just saying, because I can. ”

“What specifically can you do for me? Purification? It's too vague. ”

“It's a complete cleansing of the intimacy that's in your body and the power that doesn't match what you have. ”

For example, Teresa touched the back of her hand.

“The poor soul that resides in your body, unable to ascend. What's this... stuck in your chest? Heart? This...... and.... ”

Poison.

Teresa, who thought about the word for a moment, adds.

“The poison that spreads all over your body. He's still quiet, but he'll definitely kill you if you let him. ”

[You seem to be getting the hang of it.]

Heju smiles in his head. Lee Sung-min listened to the laughter and looked Teresa in the eyes.

“…… Purification. Are you saying you want to remove all of them from my body? ”

“Yes? Of course. ”

“That's fine, then. ”

Lee Sung-min pushed Teresa's fingertips touching the back of her hand.
