Faith Life of a Former Scammer - Faith Life of a Former Scammer chapter 177
177. seed of god
One has to experience everything firsthand.
I wondered why it was so unusual because I hadn’t been in touch, but when I got to the waiting position, it completely changed.
‘ah! Why don’t you contact me like this!’
Waiting was very stressful.
As the saying goes, the one who regrets suffers the loss, and when it came to an unfortunate position, I had no choice but to wait for a call.
“Leon! awesome!”
“uh?”
“It’s a god of rage!”
Of course, I didn’t just wait for a call in a daze. At first, I couldn’t stay still.
[master! Can’t you give me that!? please!]
‘I’ll make them one by one, so wait.’
If you recall the expression of ‘darkness’, what he brought was not an ordinary job. preparation was needed.
“Would you like to try something else?”
“In addition!?”
“President! please!”
“This kind of data is already piling up! This is a miracle!”
Thanks to that, the most exciting thing was the trio who were researching new things. Ed, Ward, and Elric.
To them, Rion was like a person who made their dreams come true.

Mana, elemental power, rage, death, natural power (the power of the World Tree), etc. It was not too much since they were constantly creating new things.
“Because it was successful. Shall we compress it now and put more into it?”
Just like that, when the three of them were making artificial gods and preparing for it.
A call from the ‘Dark’ guy has arrived.
<This is your last chance. Do you really want this?>
It was a meaningful question, but it was like a meaningless question.
“Of course I want to.”
It was impossible to get out of here.
<Okay. I got permission, but I think we need to meet up for a while. Is it okay tonight?>
“I will definitely go.”
<Okay. I’ll see you then. This time, I will bring a bottle of alcohol.>
“Do whatever you want.”
That’s how the promise with darkness was made.
* * *
The private room of the villa that evening.
“I can’t laugh at this today.”
The guy came out of the dark.
“You must have brought something quite difficult.”
“That’s right. To be honest, I don’t recommend this one.”
With those words, the guy handed out a bottle of alcohol. It was a whiskey famous for its solo.
“Would you like a drink?”
“… … I didn’t know you enjoyed drinking.”
“no. I don’t enjoy drinking like Oren. This is a drink with many meanings.”
As Oren stared into the darkness, he muttered quietly.
“It could be a farewell note.”
From the serious expression on his face, I sensed that this was not a joke.
However, contrary to his seriousness, Oren smiled.
“I look forward to it.”
“It will be different from what you expect.”
“Well, that’s not bad either.”
The darkness shook its head at Oren’s leisurely appearance.
“First, let’s see and talk. You have to see how serious it is.”
Even when he saw Oren smiling, which was rare, he didn’t react at all.
‘I don’t care what comes out.’
This was mostly prepared. As long as no one in the world like assassinating the emperor was impossible, it was fine.
The guy gathered darkness in the air and pulled out a small box from there.
A small box about the size of a jewelry box.
“what?”
“Let’s open it. Let me explain.”
The guy put it on the desk.
Then, he took out a glass, poured it, and drank without saying anything.
In the meantime, Oren opened the box.
‘… … what. What is this crazy thing?’
There was something unexpected in the box.
“It’s something we call a seed.”
“… … Are these seeds?”
It was completely different from the seeds Oren knew.
It was ‘something’ that looked like a twisted nether heart.
Blood-red goo was all around, and it moved like a heart beating.
“Does it look close to the heart?”
“It’s just what it looks like. It is a completely different object from the original heart.”
There was a deep dislike in the guy’s tone, but it didn’t seem to be caused simply by the shape.
“These seeds are edible.”
“That sounds terrible.”
“The effect is more dire. Did I mention it’s a seed? When you consume it, it takes root in your soul and body.”
“Hoo. How does it work?”
“The effect is quite usable. The bigger the seed grows, the easier it will be to use the power.”
If you’ve heard this far, there’s no reason to hate it. That meant there were still other features left.
“I heard the pros, what about the cons?”
The guy raised his middle finger and pointed at his neck.
“You can think of it as wearing a dog collar. The seed will bind your body and soul and force you to be loyal to the Order.”
Oren tilted his head.
“Good.”
“Do you like this?”
“Of course. It is said that if you feed it, you can move as you wish. It’s a great thing. Imagine feeding this to the emperor.”
The guy who had been putting on a serious expression the whole time burst into laughter at those words.
“It’s difficult to make, and it’s not something that can be force-fed.”
“Looks like there are conditions.”
“That’s right. Contrary to how much I hate it, we call it the God Seed.”
It was more realistic to say that the seed of God was the seed of some kind of devil.
“It’s about putting God in your body. We need your sincere permission.”
“It is abstract. It needs more explanation.”
“There should not be even the slightest doubt in your mind.”
It was like the mindset of a priest.
“About God?”
“no. organization.”
What was different from the priest was that he believed in an organization instead of a god.
“I don’t know what your organization is. I don’t even know where I belong.”
“You don’t have to know. Because what you have in your heart matters.”
I saw something similar to this just a while ago.
‘What do you think?’
[Skill keyization seems similar to confirming trust.]
‘I don’t think this was made by one person?’
There was absolutely no connection between confirming trust and making it easy to use authority.
It was reasonable to see that people with different powers joined forces to create it.
‘An item that can only be produced by at least two people.’
Besides, the ingredients that went into it couldn’t have been cheap.
I understand why production is difficult.
“I’ll take it.”
At Oren’s quick nod, he put the glass down.
“Are you making that decision?”
There was deep sadness in the boy’s voice.
“okay.”
“It doesn’t have to be this way, but I don’t know why you made this choice.”
As he said, eating this is really stupid. Still, there were several reasons why Oren made this decision.
“I don’t want the power or ability of a seed. Because with these seeds you can get the most important things.”
“Does this seed have anything like that?”
“Your trust.”
As if he hadn’t even thought of this, he didn’t answer and stared blankly at Oren.
“Once I become one of you, I am confident that I will swallow one by one and rise to the highest place.”
Oren’s plain words were full of ambition. The dazed guy’s expression changed dramatically.
Surprisingly, his eyes widened for an instant, and then he burst into laughter.
“First of all, I will apologize.”
The guy immediately apologized to Oren.
“I didn’t get you right this time either. I could never have imagined an answer like this.”
Darkness swept both arms exaggeratedly as if it gave goosebumps.
“good. I’ll bet on you again. Most become slaves or puppets, but I guess you are different.”
It’s cool to not say anything at times like this. Oren nodded lightly.
“Of course you can’t just give it away. You have to make sure you eat it.”
“I will.”
Oren answered calmly, but he didn’t mean it at all.
‘Bixby! Come out Bixby!’
[yes. master!]
‘Block your finger senses! Block all senses in the mouth!’
[I will take measures so that you don’t feel anything!]
The Fel Heart of the Twisted Nether.
It was also a plate to eat the throbbing market raw.
Such action was natural.
Contrary to his inner thoughts, Oren held the heart in his hand with a calm face.
water.
‘Hey! Bixby bastard! You can feel it!’
[ah. Blocked everything really. My heart beats and I can feel the vibration.]
‘Then, cut off the whole arm!’
[I will correct it!]
I picked it up casually and stuffed it into my mouth.
Fortunately, I didn’t feel anything in my mouth, but I was curious.
‘What does this taste like?’
It was a question.
[It tastes like blood!]
‘A seed is like a heart!’
I could only imagine the taste. From this worst situation, another worst happened.
[uh? master! How do I do this? The heart that came into your mouth will break!]
‘crazy!’
I wondered how to swallow it, but it seemed like it was made to break apart when it got into my mouth.
‘That’s why I just check what I eat!’
As Oren thought, the darkness opened its mouth.
“I look forward to good results.”
Leaving those words behind, the boy disappeared into the darkness. However, no matter how much I thought about it, going back like this was absurd.
‘Hey Siri! check it!’
[It is confirmed that the darkness is united. It is identified as a surveillance method.]
It was just as I thought. If so, I had to show this side properly.
Oren did not blindly eat this seed. As soon as I saw this seed, I thought of a way to smack him with fraud.
‘google!’
[Gureuk!]
‘Don’t leave anything behind, eat it up and put it in your pocket!’
[Gureuk!]
The fragments of the seeds crushed in his mouth were not absorbed into Leon’s body, but were sucked into Google’s stomach.
In the meantime, Oren was acting in his own way.
“Kuk!”
He trembled and let out a low moan.
[Rumble!]
[I ate them all!]
‘Then, activate the combined bag!’
[Gureuk!]
Soon after, a notification window popped up.
[Pocket: Seed of the Fallen Old God]
When I said seeds, I wasn’t kidding. Even the notification window was recognized as a seed.
With Oren excluded, Google and the seed in the pocket merged, and soon the seed began to settle in Oren’s body.
‘Clean up the dirty stuff, just direct the process. Hey Siri, help Google!’
[Yes. All right.]
[Gureuk.]
Seeds continued to break.
I pecked and pecked and pecked and repeated again and again, and then I couldn’t feel anything.
However, that didn’t mean it didn’t exist. Small fragments spread all over Leon’s body so that he could not feel them.
[Awesome. It is infiltrating every part of the body.]
Blood vessels, blood, muscles, internal organs… … etc. It clung everywhere and became one. And then, the unbelievable happened.
[Infiltrate the mental world.]
The seed soon entered the mental world. This world of images was the realm of the soul. The seed penetrated beyond the body into the soul.
[hey! youngest! Don’t do anything stupid!]
[Gureuk!]
[Uh huh. Didn’t you remove that dirty function!?]
Bixby and Google quarreled, and Siri told me why.
[You don’t have to worry about the negative effects of seeds. It is under the control of Google.]
‘Okay.’
Oren’s trembling body also began to calm down. And the most awaited response came out.
[The place where the darkness was gathered has disappeared.]
The dark guy who checked until the end retreated.
‘Everything goes according to plan.’
I tricked the darkness and took the seeds.
Thanks to that, I felt good and I was full.
‘From the first time I saw the dark guy, he wasn’t unusual.’
Hogu doesn’t know if Ji is a Hogu.
