Record of a Thousand Lives

Religion.

A ray of light for some, but a chain for others.

Correct religion saves many, but corrupt religion pushes the believers to the edge of the cliff.

‘Cultism is used by Orloth for my selfish desires. ’

Kang Yoon-soo did not intend to lead the cult to the right religion.

A world of trials anyway.

It has no impact on reality.

So you can pretend to be a comparator.

‘First, we need followers. ’

Religion starts with a follower.

Especially if it is a cult for self-interest.

Those who are blind to faith and devote even their families to it.

Such believers were needed for the Cultist to complete the end of the day.

Kang Yoon-soo looked at her sister outside the window.

‘I'll start with them. ’

He left the Church of Penitence.

Rekill yawned.

“What took you so long? Did you see everything you had to do? ”

“Huh."

“Really? Then we'll live well. Rob was cheap anyway, so keep it. That's a shame. But you were pretty good for an undead. ”

“We're going to the church. I hope to see you again soon. ”

It was time for my sister to say goodbye and turn around.

Kang Yoon-soo said.

“I intend to create a new religion on the continent. ”

Leanna stops.

She looked back at Kang Yoon-soo.

“What new religion? ”

“Literally. I intend to incorporate all religions of the continent into my religion. ”

Reykil's face was a bit of a mess.

“Am I deaf? Are you telling me that skeleton has an ambition to make it to the end of the day? ”

“That's right."

Leanna looked at Kang Yoon-soo with interesting eyes.

“You want to build a religion? ”

“Huh."

Kang Yoon-soo opened her jawbone.

“I need your help to complete the end of the day. ”

“Oh, my God. I was going to love you, but you were a crazy skeleton, weren't you? ”

Reqil gives you an unpleasant look.

“No matter how desperate we are to live as priests, do you think we will accept such a ridiculous offer? ”

“Huh."

“I don't hear anything. Let's go, Sis. ”

Reqil is furious.

Kang Yoon-soo boldly said.

“You can't go back to the Church now. ”

“Why?”

“You don't get any reward. ”

Reykill opens his eyes wide.

Leanna asked Gabby at the beginning of the year.

“What does that mean? ”

“The Sylvian Church of this age was corrupt. The current Pope Labelstir is corrupt. Your reward has been postponed so far. ”

The brother looks surprised.

Obviously, the reward for defeating the Undead has been mostly pushed.

However, the Church promised to repay the superior equipment and gold coins in return.

“We're not going to get that reward? ”

“It's not just not rewarding. You are banished from the Church. ”

“Why?”

“I'm from the Abandoned Cathedral. ”

The sisters were surprised again.

They were discriminated against because they were from the Abandoned Cathedral.

Reykill frowns.

“How can we believe that? ”

“In fact, if you look at the mission documents, the official stamp on the reward list is forged. He didn't want to reward me in the first place. ”

Leanna immediately removed the documents from her arms.

The crest of the Laurel Gate has been stamped near the reward.

However, the original seal and number of leaves were different.

Originally, the pattern was seven leaves, which were eight.

“Oh, my God.”

The sisters were appalled.

Leanna said, thinking about it.

“What religion will you create? ”

“Urnocra the Cultist. ”

“What's the doctrine?”

“There is no prohibition. ”

“Then can I have a drink? ”

“Huh."

“Can I smoke? ”

“Huh."

“Then let's convert. ”

Reykill wailed.

“Sis!”

* * *

A desolate village.

The raid took the property and food of the community.

The inhabitants were thin, and their hearts were as desolate as the parched ground.

‘This should be a good place for the first time. ’

Kang Yoon-soo sat in the vacant lot.

A girl dressed in filth often walks by.

The girl was so thin that she looked like Kang Yoon-soo.

The girl was frightened when she saw Kang Yoon-soo's face hidden beneath the robe.

“Ugh!”

Kang Yoon-soo opened her backpack without even looking at the girl.

You grabbed a piece of bread that smells like skeleton bones.

The girl swallowed a saliva.

“Do it, Skeleton Man. ”

“Why.”

“Bread, please. Please, I'm hungry. ”

“If you believe in fanatics, I'll give it to you. ”

The girl quickly nods.

Kang Yoon-soo gave me a piece of bread.

The girl ate the empty bread.

The bread I had tasted for a long time was delicious.

The girl licks even the crust of bread on her nails and looks at the skeleton.

“Can't I have some more? ”

Kang Yoon-soo glanced at the girl.

“Bring me the other kids and I'll give you two more. ”

“Three. ”

“Give me four. ”

The girl brought a few of her friends.

The hungry children quickly ate the bread he had given them.

But it was not enough.

The children looked at Kang Yoon-soo, wondering if there was anything more to eat.

“I'll tell you the myth of the fanatical Urnocra. ”

The children twitched their ears.

I hoped that if I listened to it all the way, I might give you a piece of bread.

Kang Yoon-soo said for a long time.

By sundown, the story was over.

He handed out bread to the children.

The next day, more children gathered than the day before.

Kang Yoon-soo told me a myth and distributed bread.

A week later, the void was full of children.

“Skeleton Man! Tell me another myth today! ”

“Today, you promised to tell me the story of how Henryk, a disciple of Urnocra, was minding his own business and polishing the continent! ”

“No! Iris, her apprentice, told me how she became an insect that ate the heart of the world! ”

“Move! I'll sit in the front row! ”

Kang Yoon-soo no longer distributed bread.

It was because the children were waiting for Kang Yoon-soo's words to be said rather than bread to eat after the conversation.

Around that time, the village elders noticed a suspicious look.

After the village was attacked, the children who had lost their liveliness began to regain their liveliness one by one.

“What's going on here? ”

“My son tells me a skeleton tells a myth every day. ”

“Skeletons? So they're not undead? ”

“What! Shouldn't we call a synagogue knight? ”

“Where's the money for that? The Imperial Courtyard doesn't even provide funding. ”

“Let's just go by ourselves! ”

A few angry adults head toward the void with a rake.

But by sunset, they came back hesitating.

“No, I told you to destroy that skeleton. Why did you just come here? ”

“…… Myth Tale, it was pretty fun! ”

And there were a lot of adults who came to the vacant lot with clearances.

Kang Yoon-soo thought, looking at the crowds in the void.

‘It's working. ’

He's not very articulate.

I used to be the pinnacle of speech, but I don't have the ability to amuse words.

However, there were colleagues.

People loved Shanette, Henryk, and Iris for their talk.

Kang Yoon-soo suddenly thought.

‘... I miss you. ’

He was surprised at his thoughts.

I felt very unfamiliar with myself.

But I didn't hate it.

You want them.

‘It's time for the priesthood sisters to take action. ’

The brothers and sisters enter the village.

Reykill grumbles.

“Dammit. I was just thinking about crazy skeletons. You're a crazy bitch, too. ”

“Do you wanna die?"

“Yes! I'd rather just die! Making a god that doesn't exist. I can't live on my conscience! ”

Shit!

“Aah! My forehead! ”

“Careful no one doesn't listen. ”

Kang Yoon-soo acted in earnest as the villagers became less alert.

He traveled around the house with his brother and sister.

The raided village was as sanitary as its finances.

Residents who didn't even have basic medical knowledge often died of illness.

That's why the hands of the brothers and sisters of the clergy were like salvation.

“Shining basket, give generous healing to the sick. ”

The patient who was lying in bed soon disappeared.

“Oh, my God. Oh, my God!"

The sisters' sacred power was strong.

The sickness is rarely cured in a short amount of time, but the sick recover quickly.

The sick man lies in bed, weeping and holding Reqil's hand.

“Thank you. Thank you very much. ”

“Oh, no. Well, there's no need to be so grateful. This treatment, it's easier than it looks. ”

Reqil is surprised and tries to take his hand off.

But the sick shakes their heads.

“I'm an academic who once lived in a city. So I know what a great thing it is for a priest of this divinity to heal for free. ”

That was true.

The corrupt churches didn't even have time to heal the poor.

It was more likely that nobles and politicians would pay a high price or make connections out of healing.

Reykill mutters as he leaves the house.

“I feel complicated. ”

“Ironically, you're out of the cult and you're giving them good deeds. ”

Leanna strokes her brother's head.

Now a small tent is erected in the void.

Kang Yoon-soo settled in a tent, and people listened to him.

Now he explained religious doctrines, not myths.

“The fanatic Urnoq will never save you. ”

People looked surprised.

God, of course, saves people.

Kang Yoon-soo shakes her head.

“It is you who must save yourselves. Abandon the forbidden, but seek competition. Saving the world is not a good deed, but an effort. Your love for others is right even after you are rich. Urnocra never ridicules those who fail. However, he does not try, but punishes those who care about others and those who are full. ”

It was a wild doctrine.

The Cultists will need to focus their efforts on propagating the Cultists.

Kang Yoon-soo said again.

“Remember, it is not only yourselves who save you. So work hard for the cult. ”

Surprisingly, from that day on, the town began to change.

There were no disaster payments coming from the city hall, and the sad adults left saying that the world had abandoned us.

The kids helped out with a little bit of work, and they grew a little crop.

I repaired the broken building, and the field worked hard.

Kang Yoon-soo was in charge of them.

“Destroy the broken workshop. It is more advantageous to repair other buildings with that material. ”

“What are you going to do with these crops? ”

“It's difficult to grow, but good for harvesting. I'll plant it myself. ”

The villagers gradually became sentimental to the skeleton.

“How can a skeleton be better than a human? ”

“It's sloppy outside, it's cold, it's warm inside. ”

No one suspects skeletons anymore.

The group that insists on expelling the undead is gone.

When it was time for a break, the residents called Kang Yoon-soo, who works carelessly.

“My lord! Come and have a drink! ”

The villagers were now calling Kang Yoon-soo the Principal.
