Faith Life of a Former Scammer - Faith Life of a Former Scammer chapter 215

215. find a way

Oren continued to talk with the emperor for quite some time. It took a long time, which meant eating various things.

It wasn’t just gold or power.

“How did you know that the chosen one was the Bishop of Leone?”

“Simple. Since he is changing the world, of course he is the chosen one.”

“Or what were you trying to do?”

“Does not matter. If it’s not him and you fail, time will go back.”

I’ve pulled out the most necessary information right now. It wasn’t even general information. It was a secret of the world that only the emperor knew.

“Can the chosen one come out after that?”

“If time passes and the problem arises again, it may come out.”

Information about the Chosen One.

“What are those protruding from the boundary?”

“Fragments of the past. It’s like the dregs left after expelling and killing gods and transcendents.”

The identity of things protruding from the boundary.

“Is the sanctuary guarded by the empire related?”

“You can see it that way.”

Information about the sanctuary.

I have obtained various information from the emperor. These pieces of information were the pieces that made up a story.

It wasn’t just information that was stolen.

“It requires enormous powers.”

“I will give it to you. If you carry this plaque, you will have full power in your hands.”

“I need gold and various materials.”

“I will give it to you.”

What he was trying to save wasn’t gold. It is to save the ‘manpower’ that allows the empire to be maintained.

So, you could ask for anything other than a person.

“I need data from the State Magic Research Institute.”

“I’ll give it to you.”

Oren felt like he was picking out treasures from a treasure trove.

“If the imperial palace keeps sacred objects, I would like to receive them.”

“Give it away. Instead, they must be returned after use.”

“Yes. it’s okay.”

Oren replied that he knew, but his thoughts were completely different.

‘return? There’s no way.’

Since it was in Oren’s hands, I had no intention of returning it.

“Finally, we need time. Time to set the stage, create the situation. I want you to buy that time.”

“It’s okay.”

If I had pulled it out this far, I had to move from now on.

“Then, let’s start right away.”

“Please ask the world.”

The emperor said he was asking for the world, but it sounded completely different to Oren.

‘It must be asking the Empire to preserve its power.’

In the eyes of Oren, the emperor was nothing less than a black man.

* * *

After returning to Killika directly from the imperial palace, he moved in the form of Leon.

“Where is Black now?”

“I’m out on the border of the fish people.”

I didn’t know what the heck the movement line was like and whether I was there or not, but it worked out rather well.

“Look at the sword.”

The old man’s ‘sword’ protruded from the air.

“Can you meet Black and tell him about the sword?”

“If it is your name, I will follow. However, I am just a sword and have no talent for teaching.”

It didn’t matter.

“You can give me training that is close to real life. You will learn so quickly that you wonder if this makes sense. When you meet him, you will get a sense of who he is.”

“I will follow orders.”

The black side’s strong man ‘Geom’ raises our side’s hero ‘Black’?

I was already excited about what the outcome would be.

“I’d rather ask for that than my protection.”

“All right.”

“Please attach an agent to the sword.”

“Yes.”

At the same time, an agent emerged from the shadows and disappeared with the sword.

Black is a kind of insurance.

No matter what the situation was, if there was a strong person, the situation could be reversed.

Black was sufficient for insurance.

Now was the time to really move.

“I’ll go to the lab.”

“All right.”

Leone went straight to the lab.

I came downstairs while being greeted by people. Here is what you need most right now.

A grotesque monster of heteromorphic form. It was a monster pouring from the border.

“Is that going?”

“ah. The parish priest is here.”

We had to know what we were fighting against.

“Please quickly explain what you have found out so far.”

“Yes. All right.”

after he answered that. I manipulated the magic circle.

keying-

With a strange sound, magic was created where he was. And an amazing thing happened. The guy started consuming the magic.

“Do you eat magic?”

“It’s not just this. That eats up everything. Energy and matter have nothing to do with it.”

“What if I eat it?”

There was no need to hear the answer from the wizard. His body grew larger, and the enlarged part fell off.

What used to be one became two.

“It differentiates like this.”

“Eating and proliferating?”

“That’s right.”

this was the worst

It eats anything and continues to multiply. If Leon hadn’t supported the border, that would have poured into the continent.

The moment they eat something, they multiply exponentially.

“What is the current alert situation?”

“We are blocking it somehow with an artificial neoplasm. We can’t even attack, we just maintain the status quo.”

Even without hearing the reason for maintaining the status quo without attacking, it was expected.

All you have to do is attack the outside from the inside, but the reason they stay still is simple.

‘Because I’ll eat all the arrows or magic and multiply.’

So what should I do?

“Did you find a way to get rid of it?”

“The method that has been developed so far is to dissipate it in an instant with high-output energy. It was also possible to block the boundary with an artificial god because of the god’s enormous energy.”

The only way is to attack with tremendous power that they can’t eat.

“How much energy would it take to kill all the guys coming out of the border?”

“… … Not measurable. Even if you collect all artificial gods, it is impossible.”

Reject this method.

Then another way was needed.

I could see the little guy wriggling. Leon moved right away.

‘google. Eat it up.’

[Gureuk!]

I thought I would eat it all at once, but something surprising happened.

Kwajik.

Kwajik.

There was a situation where they ate each other.

[Rumble!]

As if angry, Google chewed and swallowed him with all his might. In an instant, it felt like a huge amount of energy was wasted.

Kwajik!

Only then did the guy get absorbed.

It seemed like it would be difficult to devour them even with Google.

‘It’s difficult. difficult.’

It wasn’t all bad news, though.

[Check the energy absorbed by Google.]

[Heterogeneous energy. It contains the power of authority.]

‘warrant?’

It was said that it was the remains of gods and transcendental people, and it seemed that they ate something and converted it into the power of authority.

‘What if they ate up the continent?’

It will contain tremendous power. According to the words of the darkness, it seemed that he was trying to create a new world with that power.

“Continue your research, please. I will write down the information I just got and send it to you.”

“Yes. All right.”

Even though the information was accumulated, it was lacking for a long time.

Leone had to die, he had to get rid of this ignorant guy, and he had to feed the emperor.

‘There are too many conditions.’

In this case, you need to seek professional help.

Leon went to the grandmother’s room after a long time.

* * *

“came?”

Grandma greeted Leon with a bright smile as always.

“How have you been?”

“Except for the fact that Leone didn’t visit, everything went well.”

“Sorry. I’ve been very busy these days.”

“okay?”

“There were a lot of fun things. Would you like to hear it?”

At that, the grandmother smiled brightly.

“Good. I will prepare the tea.”

While drinking the prepared tea, Leone solved what had happened so far.

Grandma burst into admiration as she listened to Leon’s story.

When the story of the darkness and his sister came up, he had a rather complicated face.

“That’s why I was even called by the emperor.”

“Hmm.”

The last time the emperor’s story came out, the old woman’s expression became serious.

“It is dangerous.”

As if she understood what was going to happen, she came straight to the conclusion.

“It’s not just dangerous. I guess I should die.”

At those words, her eyes widened for a second. However, that was literally only an instant.

Her true gaze, hidden beneath her gentle and caring eyes, came to mind.

“I know Leon will not give up.”

she knew Rion was not a guy who would die just because he was told to die.

Others see Leone as nice and innocent, but Grandma was not. Granny knows the true face of Leone.

“Right. Why am I dying? I can live comfortably now. What I said is a condition.”

“First of all, you mean you have to die?”

It was correct.

“Yes. Even if you survive, that’s a problem. The emperor will have questions.”

Even if they were left alive, they would have to be constantly watched by the emperor.

can i use that?

Of course there will be.

They could strike the emperor with fraud, showing that there are still dangers left in the world.

However, that was bad.

‘You should live comfortably. I’m done, so why are you doing this?’

What Leon wanted was never to get the absolute power and rule everything.

Oren’s position was enough.

“like. How many ingredients do you have?”

“I got quite a bit. However, I couldn’t assemble it well.”

“Show me.”

Leone nodded and immediately called Siri.

‘Hey Siri. Organize the collected information on paper.’

[All right.]

Information quickly began to be written on paper. Grandmother looked at the information and began to gather information.

Grandma read everything and nodded.

“As expected, there are a few things that are lacking.”

“Right?”

“Yes. It’s not enough to make a story.”

Grandma had the same idea as Leon. However, he was seeing what Leon hadn’t seen.

“But does it have to be a story?”

“Yes?”

“The end is to die and disappear anyway, right?”

“It will be.”

“Then, it doesn’t have to be a story, right?”

Looking back, it was like that.

There was no need to make it into a story and have a flow.

“Could it be, just as an incident?”

“Yes. How about going to the case?”

She was also a grandmother.

When I slightly changed my point of view, the blocking was broken and ideas poured out.

“There are three conditions that we are considering right now.”

Leon will die.

The continent will return to its original state.

Fuck the Emperor.

Of course, there were more important things than this.

“What is the world going to do? Fooling the Emperor shouldn’t be too difficult. But what about the world?”

“I would have missed it if it wasn’t for Grandma.”

There was one more condition.

I had to fool the guy called the world. But, is it possible to fool the world?

“I need to think of a way to do this?”

Grandmother took Leon’s words.

“The most important thing right now is ‘the world’. The first thing is to figure out what the world is and what kind of guy he is.”

Understanding the world is originally impossible. However, when two of the best cheaters come together, this is possible.

“Does the world have a will?”

“no. He’s like a magic circle that follows the rules.”

“Then, let’s start there. There must be rules and patterns in the world too.”

“You’re trying to infer his other behavior from patterns, right?”

“Exactly.”

Swindlers cheat even the deaf, and cheat monsters.

world? To both of them, it was just a joke.

“How about this? If you go like this, I think you have a chance.”

“Five. Are you good? Looking in that direction… … .”

An incident that is not enough to be called a story.

The incidents started to happen one by one.

“how about it? A flow was created, right?”

When events come together, they become a story.

The last story was created.
