Only Noblemtl
Episode 186. God’s Will, Human Heart 2
Seongdan Hyeonin, known as the most trusted confidant among the confidants of the thousand-year-old kalpa, decided to betray.
And not for profit, but purely for the good of the world, to prevent more people from dying.
Some people criticize it as hypocrisy.
In fact, the Seongdan Sage was a confidant of the Thousand-Kalpas and had been continuously instigating and actively meddling in the Thousand-Kalpas’ ruthless rule, expansion, and reckless wars.
No one denies that the Master of a Thousand Eternals is the Sage of the Heavenly Kingdom. The Master of a Thousand Eternals does not deny it. The Sage does not deny it. The best person in the world cannot be called the Master of a Thousand Eternals. He did not listen to a single word he said.
The wise man kicks away all the countless opportunities that could have saved him from the eons, and only at the end does he rebel, saying that he simply cannot do this. When you look at it this way, people are truly complicated.
But if the wise man had continued to meddle in this for thousands of kalpas, wouldn’t he have been cursed even more?
In fact, Manum Lapang, who was Ol Chaun’s real wife, Osozoyin Gulmueng, who was his loyal defender, Kass Loran, who was Datang’s prime minister, and Medakbo, who was in charge of the administration, all did not deny Ol Chaun’s critical mistakes, but rather opposed them and intervened. They loyally sided with Ol Chaun, and so they were all killed by the Savior.
In that respect, historical evaluations are very divided. Is it reasonable to praise the sage as noble simply because he played a leading role in many of the atrocities of the eon, or actually led them, and then stopped the outbreak of Hanjutamal and worked with the savior as a companion?
In particular, opinions are divided on whether the spread of Hanjutamal was prevented. ‘If Hanjutamal had spread at that time, and if Datang had declined as a result, wouldn’t the reverse god not have appeared and wouldn’t the world have been at peace?’
Well, this is a result-based argument. People who argue for it get criticized a lot.
Even before being placed in the temple, the evaluation of All Chaun, the evaluation of Datang who ran wild and had to be stopped by someone, and the evaluation of the Savior are all so complex that they cannot be simply grasped.
You can’t just simply say who is bad and who is good.
This is a topic I’ve been talking about while showing you this world. The Datons, and the people of the Orsozora continent in general, have a promiscuous culture.
Is it a mess? A corrupt culture that needs to be fixed immediately?
Instead, they share love with everyone, no matter who their child is, treat all children as if they were their own, and because they are all family, they have developed an atmosphere where the ancestors make sacrifices without hesitation for the sake of their family and children.
But, imagine if Datang were to force this on the entire world.
If a couple has a child, they just take the child away and raise it in an orphanage of some unknown place. They fundamentally prohibit individuals from raising children, and they even prohibit couples from being married.
And if you are an elder, when the country is in danger, you are the first to be cut off from welfare, and when war breaks out, you are the first to be drafted and sent to your death. This is stipulated by law and must be followed unconditionally. Not only in Datang, but in the whole world.
It’s embarrassing, isn’t it? Those of you who actually have loving wives and husbands, and those of you who are elderly, will probably not be able to follow this.
Of course, not all cultures are equal.
For example, human sacrifice must be prevented. No matter how cultural it is, it cannot be tolerated. Even in this world where there are gods who become stronger by accepting human sacrifice, it must be prevented.
However, the moment a culture that is neither particularly good nor evil is forced upon others, conflict and disputes arise, and it also becomes evil.
Enjoy, cherish, and love. This is the slogan that Datang first advocated.
Here, caring and loving are different. Caring is about protecting the weak, while love is about respecting each other equally.
In that respect, I think it is not me but the people of the world who should be evaluating Seongdanhyeonin.
“If we were to evaluate him as the best in the world, we would say that Seongdan Hyeonin followed the wrong righteousness, but he knew benevolence. He supported tyranny for thousands of years, but it was based on his own beliefs. Therefore, he betrayed thousands of years based on his own beliefs. This is not to say that people are treacherous, but rather beneficial.”
“As a storyteller of Datang, I would say that Seongdan Hyeonin’s actions were not ultimately good. However, I understand his sincerity. So I cannot hate him for betraying Cheon-gap and stabbing Datang in the back.”
“The officer commented, “He was generally evil and cruel in character. As a companion, he was a leader who foretold and predicted the future for his party. As a companion, he was a wise and courageous man who knew how to shed tears and fight for his loved ones. As a man, he was noble. As a warrior, he was not outstanding, but he could do everything. As a sage, he accomplished great things. How can one describe a person so complexly? How can one only write a fragmentary history?”
So, the betrayal he committed directly. Let’s check it out for yourself now.
The betrayal of the Seongdanhyeonin was simple. After all, Cheon-geop couldn’t stop Han-ju from going to the quarantine area. He guided them himself. He would probably know if he lied. Cheon-geop is a suspicious person who doesn’t trust anyone.
So, the betrayal of the Seongdan sage was carried out in a way that he never lied to Cheon-geop. The Seongdan sage worked hard to find the quarantine area of Hanjutamal for Cheon-geop, and while leading the way, he overcame the approaching crisis.
But at the same time, it left traces wherever it went.
Originally, in order to figure out the geography of this Datang and to get back on track, they left behind some magical traces, but there was one thing that was different. That is, they gradually wrote down the marks so that the Datang army could attack, so that they would be discovered.
Darida, who saw the mark left by the Seongdanhyeonin, was naturally skeptical at first.
“Is this a trap? The traces are becoming more and more obvious.”
But Darida gradually becomes bolder and leaves unnecessary traces that suggest the next path in detail, and after seeing the path of a thousand eons actually moving towards that path, he comes to one conclusion.
“There’s a traitor among these guys! Datang is alive!”
Darida reports this intelligence to Liwaduwan and Ol Chaun, who are immediately putting pressure on the area, as well as Hakan, who is advancing from the south to block them, and Marech, who is guarding the quarantine zone.
Now the eons are over. Just the forces that are gathered now are Ol Chaun, Liwaduwan, Darida, Marech, Hakang, Dasun Chaun, Niroran Chaun. And the additional 15 Mainnirans in the officer and warrior divisions due to the war, the number of troops is at least 80,000.
One rookie. Four Anrai. Two Chaun-level spirits. Fifteen Minnirun. Over there, one rookie. One Anrai, one Chaun-level saint, and 100 artificial superhumans? The match is over. Soon, Cheon-geon, who committed all kinds of atrocities, will die.
I don’t know who the traitor was who helped me pursue, but thanks to him I survived. Bapan Tabdo and that evil aeon also end here.
Seongdan Hyeonin knew that he would be included in the end. However, he was already dead, so he didn’t care. He would guide the path as a loyal subject for a thousand eons until the end and then die.
The marks left by the Seongdan sage are becoming increasingly bold. Knowing that Cheon-geop does not doubt him at all, he instead takes the lead and spreads his mysteries.
The party knows that he is exploring Hanjutamal, but in fact he is sending word to prepare for the Datang army that will be at the front.
In particular, I told Tattoonang Marechi to remove all the people in quarantine from Hanjutamal, or at least reduce them as much as possible to minimize the damage caused by the spread of Hanjutamal.
Marechi understood the order and evacuated, and the army of a thousand eons is now rushing towards the trap that Hakan’s army and Liwaduwan had set up in advance.
I’m going to die. Since Hanjutamal and the quarantine area are not only about isolating patients, but also plants, spirits, Malrangmalang, and everything that spreads through the land and air, it’s not possible to completely block it, but at least it’s almost impossible for a thousand-kalpa army to release Hanjutamal.
“It’s right there. That’s where the Hanjuta Mal we’re looking for is.”
“I see. They all go in, absorb the disease, and then disperse.”
“Yes! Babpan!”
Seongdan Hyeonin became a little anxious. This was because they had not been able to completely remove the Hanjutamal, and there were still patients and some Malrangmalrang who had contracted the disease.
When Maho was fed Malrangmalrang, Maho also grew two horns. ‘Cheon-geop’ was not like that at all because he had attained godhood, but it was certain that everyone had become a carrier.
The Great Bapan knows that the mission is accomplished and declares to the party.
“Now we disperse and have a chat… … .”
He could not continue his words, because a fireball flew towards him. Bapan was startled and ordered his horse Cheongeop to block it, but Cheongeop groaned in pain as he ate the fire.
There is only one fire in this world that can torment the god-like Maho. The thousand-year-old gazes with hatred at the one who fired the fire.
Sitting on a palanquin, looking down, with his head much higher than theirs, was the hated god of Datang, Ol Chaun.
“This is Recappa. It was really nice meeting you.”
“how…….”
All Chaun answers confidently and naturally.
“How did you get here? Ha! Why don’t you ask your subordinates? Thanks to the mark he left behind, we were able to prepare and completely surround this area while you guys were being eaten by Hanjutamal. What are you going to do with your subordinate guards?”
At the sound of Ol Chaun’s whining words, Cheon-geop’s gaze is suddenly focused in one direction. It’s as if he realized everything.
Cheon-geon was truly the most shocked person in his life. He had never been this shocked when he was betrayed by his brothers, poisoned, and abandoned on the grassland, when his army failed to push back the Datang, or when his clan was annihilated by the disease demons.
“Wise man. How could you betray me?”
The voice was so loud that it almost felt like the world was falling apart. The god of the Tatap tribe seemed more shocked by that than by being surrounded right now.
“Even if everyone in the world betrayed me, I trusted you! How could you do this to me! I know how much betrayal hurts me… … .”
Seongdan Hyeon-in sighs deeply at the pitifulness of this year’s events.
If he hadn’t said anything, he would have died with honor. And now that he’s talking, why can’t he just attack me? Do I really need to make him say the betrayal himself?
All sorts of thoughts come to mind. But, well, it’s true that he is a traitor. Since it has come to this, it might be right to just curse him out and leave, the wise man says, annoyed.
“I couldn’t let your crazy land grabbing game destroy the entire race, so that’s why I did it! You crazy bastard!”
“!!!”
“All right! Instead of killing this madman, just save our race! My life is of no concern to me!”
“you…….”
Babpan silently spews cold hatred and pulls the bow from Maho’s horn and shoots it. The wise man had anticipated the incoming arrow, but his strength was not enough to dodge it.
bang!
However, surprisingly, there was someone who stopped him. The spider web created by the spell from the ground first formed a barrier, and Marechi, the strongest Daton in the world, repelled him, and Darida, the strongest martial arts master of Daton, blocked the arrow.
“Rekappa, you bastard!”
And the battle starts off hotly as All Chaun throws his Datang Oram! Cheon-geop shouts as he gets hit by the flying flames.
“All disband! Spread the word about Hanjutamal!”
“Kiyooooooooooo!”
“All charge! We’ll erase the newcomers of the world from here!”
“Hehehehe!!!”
The cavalry, sensing defeat, dispersed and tried to spread the news, and Cheon-geop tried to find a way to break through. On the contrary, All Cha-un tried to block him and burn him to death.
The match will not last long. The landscape of the world will change drastically because of this.
