Faith Life of a Former Scammer - Faith Life of a Former Scammer chapter 200

200. Share your ego!?

As soon as Oren returned from the mental world, he heard a loud voice.

“hey. Woke up? Answer me quickly when you wake up.”

It was the voice of a premonition.

“woke up.”

Oren immediately rose from his seat.

“How are you? The power of the boundary is moving.”

“He gave only half of it. The head was treated, the body left alone. They say that the body heals with an elixir even if it takes time.”

“With an elixir?”

When the hunch guy tries to throw a question once again.

“Listen.”

The black curtain, not even moving, suddenly opened its mouth.

“Gagging!”

Of course, the state of the body was not a word. Naturally, as soon as he spoke, he started coughing up blood.

Oren moved right away.

‘Hey Siri. Activate the magic circle.’

[Yes. All right.]

The magic circle under the bed began to glow, and soon the divine power began to dwell in the body of the darkness.

“nice… … .”

The body of the black man who continued to vomit blood began to calm down. It was best to stabilize his body with the holy magic circle containing Killika’s guns.

“Good.”

After he said it calmly.

“I will retrieve the parasitic ego that was sown.”

“Yes!? Do you mean to reclaim what you sowed? It took more than 100 years to plant it.”

I said it as if I had no premonition, but it was no use.

“It’s a name. We need them.”

“… … ah.”

What is the reason to recover the egos that were cut off?

It meant that something had been lost when the brain was dimensionally separated.

“I will follow orders.”

Yegam withdrew his words as if he understood the meaning of the darkness.

“Retrieve the parasitic self.”

The question was who to send. To retrieve the ego, one had to learn to deal with the world of images.

＜Can I go?＞

An old man’s voice was heard in the air. When Ouren entered the dark image world, he spoke as if he knew about the image world.

“No. you protect me.”

＜Follow the command.＞

“Border you go.”

Dark eyes turned to Oren.

It was a natural choice. Coming out of the image world with an ego was not something anyone could do.

His premonition was that he was disapproving of Oren’s departure, but he didn’t say anything.

“I need support.”

“All support is denied. Instead, if you can’t retrieve your self, I’ll take your life.”

Oren responded as the others did.

“I follow orders.”

Darkness listened to Oren’s answer.

“good.”

I closed my eyes again, leaving only these words.

“Explain now.”

“Oren. what the heck is this… … .”

It was only natural that everyone’s eyes focused on Oren.

* * *

Oren explained everything that had happened in the image world. The old man called the sword also had to listen, so the story could not be moved and had to be done in front of the bed.

“That’s how it happened.”

“So you’re saying we need to make an elixir?”

“Yes.”

The hunch confirmed that Dasin’s thoughts were correct. But the darkness did not stand still. Darkness intervened.

“Still, the vigilante came and the head side was resolved, didn’t it? I almost got into trouble.”

“That’s right too.”

“under. great. Anyway, calling you was the right answer.”

To that, Oren replied slyly.

“Don’t sum up what everyone knows.”

“you… … !”

Oren cut her off.

“We need information other than these useless stories. What is a parasitic self?”

“that… … .”

Judging by the appearance, it seemed that this one did not know exactly what it was. Then a voice was heard in the air.

＜Everything except the boundary.＞

Darkness and foreboding went straight out.

＜You must have confirmed this person’s image world.＞

“That’s right. He had a very small world of images.”

＜Originally, he had a larger world of images than anyone else.＞

At that moment, a hypothesis popped into Oren’s head.

“Did you cut the mental world?”

＜Yes. You cut away a part of your soul along with the world of images.＞

Even if it is a cut piece, if you have two things, the image world and the soul, you can make a ‘self’.

“Did you plant it on others?”

＜Yes. I planted my parasitic self for the future.＞

Oh my gosh.

Oren felt dizzy.

If he had killed the Darkness without knowing this fact, what would have been the result?

‘I must have heard that the parasitic selves wanted revenge.’

It would never have been as gentle as it is now. I would have revenged it somehow, regardless of the means and methods.

Rather, it was a good thing.

“Can you guess who it is?”

＜It is included in all walks of life. I’ll tell you now.＞

He told me about people who were planted with parasitic egos one by one.

＜Baroque of the martial arts, Leodas of the sword. Sage Flint of the Mage Tower.＞

Before returning, I wondered why the Kwon Seong, Sword Saint, and Mage Tower had the same shape. It was because of the parasitic ego.

‘Wait a minute, isn’t there a saint now?’

Natalia was trying to be called a saint like before returning, but it would have been impossible to approach her from the dark side.

＜Arthur, High Priest of the Church of the Earth.＞

It seemed that he had changed routes from Natalia to Arthur. Fortunately, all the people who had spoken so far had already been appeased.

‘Doesn’t the ego have a special power?’

This seemed like something I would have to call Arthur and the Sage to check. Up to this point, it was roughly within the expected range, but the problem was the last one.

＜The Empire’s 7th Prince Sermion.＞

Even if he was a great aristocrat of the empire, it was a problem, but a prince. I couldn’t have imagined this.

‘Who is Sermion?’

Even Oren did not remember him. No matter how much I thought about it, it didn’t come to mind.

‘What I don’t know is that I didn’t stand out much… … .’

A person that Oren doesn’t know very well.

This alone was a problem, but I couldn’t even figure out what to do to get the ego out of the prince.

“Others have contacts with me. However, the prince’s side is not at all.”

Besides, it was too risky to meet the prince in the body of Leon as well as Oren.

“If you don’t do it wrong, you may be seen as pushing the prince.”

＜That’s your problem to solve.＞

expected so far.

“I need some time.”

＜That doesn’t matter. It takes time to make an elixir anyway.＞

It wasn’t impossible if you had enough time. There were several ways.

“One more, I want to borrow some darkness.”

＜Allow me.＞

The reason for taking care of the darkness is simple.

It was impossible for Oren to go all over the place to get the things that needed to be supported. If you ask the darkness, everything will be solved.

“Then, I will meet you with my ego.”

he didn’t answer

Oren quietly left the room.

When I came out, I had a hunch, but this side had a way to keep his mouth shut.

“I have been commanded. Are you going to stop me?”

The hunch had no choice but to shut up and let Oren go. Contrary to my premonition, I had quite a few conversations with the darkness.

“Wait. You move with me.”

“Are you moving together?”

“no. You move in the dark.”

“You need support?”

Contrary to my stupid premonition, the conversation with the darkness proceeded quickly.

“Yes. I’ve been given permission, so you leave everything behind and support me.”

“All right. I look forward to hearing from you.”

After that, Oren immediately returned to Killika. This was the end of my activities as Oren.

Oren returned to Leone.

* * *

Leone went straight to the wise man Flint.

“Sage. I’d like to talk to you for a moment. Is that okay?”

“it’s okay. The parish priest.”

The wise man did not have to spin his horse around. Leon went straight to the point.

“Oren-nim has come to get strange information. This is information about the people the wise man met.”

The expression of the sage, who was dressed in vain, hardened.

“I would like to hear a detailed explanation.”

“It is information that something has been planted in the mental world of those who have met in person.”

“The world of imagination… … Would the parish priest want to check that out?”

“That’s right. I know it’s very rude to ask to see the world of images. Nonetheless, please.”

Showing the world of images was not very different from showing one’s inner thoughts as they are.

At Leon’s polite words, the wise man smiled.

“President. You don’t have to keep your head down. I consider it fate that I met the parish priest. Maybe this is also the flow of fate.”

I thought I would need more persuasion, but the wise man was saying that it was okay instead.

“You are free to look around my world.”

“thank you. Sage.”

A smile appeared on Leon’s face.

‘This is proof that I lived hard.’

The seeds sown were already bearing fruit.

“I will start right away.”

“Yes. I will wait with a comfortable heart.”

The sage allowed it, but there was no need to hesitate.

‘Hey Siri. Start.’

[Yes. All right.]

Soon after, Siri started pouring out her skills.

[Skill: Consolation is activated.]

[Inherent ability: Persuasion of the parish priest is activated.]

[Skill: Training is activated.]

[The body is in contact.]

[The connection is strengthened.]

By pouring in all his skills and strengthening the connection to the limit, he was able to move into the world of the sage’s image.

* * *

The image world of the sage. This was a space worthy of a sage’s world of imagination.

‘Pure White Library.’

Like the mind of a sage who abandoned all desires, this place was clean, and books and papers were piled up like his lofty knowledge.

‘Looks like there’s nothing wrong.’

Leone went around the library and confirmed the abnormality. However, no abnormalities were seen.

when you went so deep inside. I was able to meet the sage.

A figure of a sage meditating cross-legged.

“Sage?”

Despite Leon’s call, he remained in that position and did not move.

‘There is such an image world.’

As I was trying to find another place like that, Siri opened her mouth.

[Something is strange.]

‘what?’

[There seems to be a reason why the sage keeps meditating.]

‘Is there a reason?’

I just thought it was a sage-like act, but it didn’t seem like it from Siri’s point of view.

[I don’t know the exact cause, but it seems that this world is maintained only by maintaining meditation.]

‘No way, you’re meditating to prevent something?’

Because the sages of the world of images are meditating, they are maintained in this world?

In other words, it meant that there was something attacking this world.

[It is determined that it is.]

‘Let’s check.’

At this time, there was an optimal power that could be used.

‘Activate the power of vigilance.’

Siri moved along with Leon’s words.

[Skill: Self-Suggestion is activated.]

After activating autosuggestion and forcibly creating a will.

‘Reveal the boundary between the pure white library and those who try to invade it.’

I put my will into the power of the boundary.

[Self-suggestion succeeded.]

The self-suggestion succeeded, and the power of the vigilance immediately moved, and soon something began to be seen.

‘… … crazy.’

The pure white library floor. Something black was swaying beneath it.
