Surviving as a Saint in Another World - Surviving as a Saint in Another World chapter 92

Emperor (2)

The fact that there are many eyes in the imperial palace does not simply mean that there are many people and that they are always watching.

The true value of the eyes of the imperial palace is not the numerous people in the imperial palace, but the numerous magic and divine techniques applied throughout the imperial palace.

The only one who knows exactly the size of the eye, which even those who know about him can only secretly guess at, is the emperor of the empire, the rightful owner of this vast imperial palace.

And the defense of the imperial palace was so great that the emperor could not hide his surprise when he first learned about the true nature of the palace.

The word “tremendous” was a bit weak to express the defense of the imperial palace. It was close to paranoia.

The Empire is a country that was born by destroying the Holy Empire and laying its foundation on the rock.

This is one of the secret histories of the Empire, but in fact, those who led the rebellion at that time did not actually think that their rebellion would succeed.

Doesn’t it mean that God accepts the depravity of a group of people who follow him?

They rebelled under the pretext of dishonoring the name of God, but the rebels thought that they would be the ones who would die in the wrath of God.

Nevertheless, they revolted because they wanted their will to be passed on to the next generation. God no longer pays attention to those who do not blindly follow him, so we must convey the will that we must strive for survival on our own rather than relying on God. It was for

Strangely, however, the rebellion succeeded.

Funny enough, that was the beginning of the problem.

Gods and religions cannot be driven out of the newly established country because they led the rebellion under the pretext of punishing those who dishonor the name of God.

At first, the people firmly believed that God had entrusted them with a sacred duty, and instead of abandoning their faith as they initially intended, the rebels became stronger than when they suffered from the tyranny of the priests.

They raised a rebellion to drive out the gods and priests, but despite the success of the rebellion, they could not completely drive out the gods and priests. From there, the fear of the rebels began.

The vested interests that originally ruled this land were destroyed and a new foundation was established on the land, but since all of the original vested interests could not be purged, what is the difference between leaving behind a remnant?

What was God’s intention? Why did they let their rebellion succeed?

The fear and doubt of the gods of the people who succeeded in the rebellion reached their peak, and the imperial palace was a masterpiece among the numerous results created.

You don’t know when and how the god will take your life. Then, let’s create a safe space where you can find out what the god does. At least within this space, let’s get the ability equal to the god.

Indeed, it was a crazy idea for a person who decided to drive out the gods and priests for the first time in this land.

Countless sorcerers and priests who were forced to submit were literally milled countless times.

Thus, the imperial palace was created.

As it is a space where such tenacity is accumulated, the imperial palace is not just a space that is usually thought of as a splendid building.

There are sculptures that serve as watchtowers throughout the imperial palace, allowing you to closely observe the surroundings to a level where there are no blind spots. This is a limitation as a human being, not a limitation of the imperial palace’s abilities.

Even if the emperor missed something inside the imperial palace, countless magic and divine techniques that most people inside the imperial palace are unaware of take their place.

It is meaningless to try to identify and avoid these countless security devices one by one.

The emperor could relocate or recreate numerous traps and crime prevention measures located inside the imperial palace on the spot according to his will.

Even if they tried to detect the energy and react in real time, there were of course countless countermeasures prepared inside the imperial palace.

He could even physically change the structure of the imperial palace if he wanted to.

Since the emperor was the only one who was aware of all the crime prevention systems inside the imperial palace, of course, no one in the world could escape the emperor’s eyes in the imperial palace.

In the meantime, the emperor learned from Hexen that the saint had deceived the master’s senses and followed the elves in the ignorant special attack.

Could I not be interested in this?

I don’t know what kind of technique he used, but since there are many absurd corners for common sense to judge holy magic, I decided not to think deeply about that technique.

But the emperor was very curious.

Can the ability that deceived the Master be used inside the Imperial Palace? If it can be used, how far can it break through the Imperial Palace?

If he is a saint who has always shown himself to exceed his expectations, wouldn’t he show an extraordinary appearance again this time?

The emperor waited for the saint to leave the room, expecting to see the saint again.

I was already looking forward to seeing the saint’s hidden move.

Therein was the confidence that the saint would not be able to escape completely from his eyes, although he could break free from obstructions and go wherever he wanted within the imperial palace.

And… nothing happened.

No matter how long I waited, the saint did not leave the room.

It would be possible to know the current situation more clearly if he checked even inside the room, but the emperor did not choose such a method.

At Master level, the emperor was able to vaguely recognize the gaze of the emperor when looking somewhere in the imperial palace using a sculpture with shared gaze, so the possibility that the saint’s divine power could recognize the emperor’s surveillance network could not be ruled out. Because.

I didn’t want to make an excuse for trouble by spying on the room.

However, the saint showed no sign of coming out of the room until the appointment time was over.

Seeing as he slept with the window open, he wondered if he was going out through the window, but there was no sign of it.

Even if he hid himself from the window and missed it, since the traps from the accommodation where the saint is staying to the 3rd annex were extremely concentrated in order to test the saint, there should be some kind of reaction, but there was nothing except for the 3rd prince suddenly getting caught in the trap. There were no signs.

The emperor, who was puzzled, suddenly noticed that the fact that the saint did not move was the goal of the saint.

If the saint didn’t know who the person who sent the letter at all, he wouldn’t know.

If the unidentified group did this to secretly meet inside the imperial palace to avoid others’ eyes, the unidentified group wouldn’t be able to come to the place where the saint was because the saint didn’t show up at the meeting place. He must have visited the saint in the middle of the night rather than setting the place elsewhere.

But what if the person who handed the letter was the emperor? Isn’t it strange to destroy it? It would be easy for the emperor to guide the saint to the annex if he decided.

Therefore, the saint noticed that if he didn’t do anything, the person sent by the emperor would guide him to the annex on his own.

Even this meeting was the story that the emperor brought up first. It felt like he was saying that the unfortunate thing was that he was the emperor and not a saint.

“You got hit again.”

As the appointment time approached, the emperor had to admit that he had been caught up in the number of saints.

The saint came to the annex in an unexpected way, and he wanted to check the saint’s unexpected move, but the saint who had read up to that point did not take any action, so he had to bring the saint without earning any income.

This time, I wanted to find out the direct ability of the saint, so I couldn’t help but feel a little regret, but I had to admit that it was the best decision for the saint.

As the saint expressed himself without taking any action, isn’t it the emperor who was eager to talk with the saint?

Originally, it was the law that those who regret everything in the world had to bend down and enter.

So the emperor ordered his men to bring the saint and entered the annex.

and…

“Good night.”

In front of the emperor who had just entered the studio, he calmly smelled the fragrance of the flowers and saw the saint greeting him without even looking at him.

The saint, wrapped in the darkness of the night and surrounded by flowers, exuded a strange charm that was different from the appearance he saw during the day.

For a moment, the emperor’s thoughts stopped. A shock that he had never experienced in the last few decades hit the emperor’s mind.

The emperor had never stopped thinking about any kind of shock. It was such a big shock.

The reason the saint is here is because the emperor himself summoned him?

Even those words that seemed reasonable at first glance were enough to confuse the emperor.

Of course, it is true that he had hoped that the saint would arrive here on his own by revealing his abilities. However, that was only assuming a situation that he could observe. I didn’t expect to meet like this.

The emperor had to admit that he had unconsciously underestimated the saint’s abilities.

The saint’s inhuman insight, political sense, situational judgment, and even the ability to read emotions. The emperor himself thought that he was fully aware of the saint’s true worth and made appropriate judgments, but even that was a mistake.

Until just now, the emperor thought that the saint’s disappearance was a very good political judgment made after reading his mind and current situation.

Not even for a moment had he imagined that the saint would be able to break through all the security systems within the imperial palace without touching a single one.

But the saint was able to do that.

This suggested many things.

Of course, just because the Master accomplished the impossible doesn’t mean that the Saint was unconditionally stronger than the Master. It was because the direction was slightly different in the first place.

However, being a master is not simply a symbol of power. It is a state called the limit that a person, an intelligent body can reach.

At that point, it’s natural to be good at anything.

Being able to calmly do something that such a master couldn’t even dare to do meant that it was meaningless to judge the saint’s abilities on a common sense level.

At that moment, the emperor’s image of a saint with good abilities, excellent management skills, and his own convictions and ambitions was shattered.

It is because all the major premise has collapsed.

The ability to be excellent was a story that was said at the level of common sense, not talking about the ridiculous ability to assassinate the emperor alone.

The emperor thought he had done well in understanding the saint in front of him, but not anymore.

At this moment, just as the ability of the saint was out of the emperor’s understanding, the way of thinking of being a saint was also completely out of the emperor’s understanding.

With such ability, why do you live such an ascetic life?

Even though the saint has such an out-of-standard ability, why has it not been highlighted so far?

This is because the saint’s power has never been directed at people. The only time the saint wields power is when dealing with demon worshipers, and other than that, power used against humans is always used to heal or protect them.

Even rather than reigning over humans, he intervened among them and faithfully followed the rules set by humans.

Even under pressure from the church, he has never used force against members of the church who are not corrupters, and chooses an option that will not cause a disturbance at the request of a rude nobleman, and goes over without difficulty.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the impression that the saint’s ability is healing and protection rather than brute force.

Why is it that a person with such ability does not think of flying higher and always looks down and devotes himself to those who hold on to his ankles?

It’s the mercy of God that only comes out of stories…

“Was it me who was prejudiced?”

Only then did the emperor come up with an unexpected possibility.

In the first place, the emperor did not regard the existence of a saint as special.

Of course, the saint was right.

However, the emperor was one of the few human beings who had the chance to face those rare saints on an equal footing several times.

To the emperor, who looked at them without prejudice, saints were just talented people who accepted the words and powers of God and looked at the world from a rather unique point of view.

It was not something close to God, transcending the limits of an absolute intelligence.

The excessive belief in saints that spread among the people, regardless of race, was close to exaggeration stemming from the divine halo.

Unconsciously, the emperor regarded the saint in front of him as the same as them. No, to be honest, he considered it inferior to him.

Orion thought that it had been a long time since he stopped paying attention to humans.

Suddenly, in the emperor’s mind, it came to mind that Saint Ronan was a person who survived the crisis of death. Along with the fact that he had been a general believer with a little stupidity until then.

What is the probability that, in his generation, at this moment, God will exert some transcendent power and send an incarnation of himself down to this earth to right all the wrongs?

It’s probably slim. It’s a very slim chance.

But is that really impossible?

Is it all a coincidence that the saint, who has been playing with humans and acting normally until now, suddenly deceives all his senses and shows off his ability by appearing here?

The emperor didn’t think so.

It was not even clear whether he had summoned the saint or the saint had summoned him.

“Hey saint.

The emperor asked with a trembling heart.

It was a question close to the final exam.

The saint still looked at the emperor without much agitation at the emperor’s words, looked at the flowers he had given him, and looked at the night sky, sighing lightly.

“So, how much do you know about the truth of this world, Emperor? How can you prove that the truth you believe in is real?”

Even though it was a floating voice close to the Seon dialogue, the emperor felt a certain complex emotion in it.

“At least I know for sure that Orion doesn’t care for humans anymore. That the Church is eager to hide him.”

The saint did not speak for a while.

It seemed like he was looking up at the sky, or he was trying to find the image of God somewhere.

Finally, the saint turned his head and looked at the emperor.

“Would you like to hear the story of a god who was not allowed to care for his own children?”

The corners of the saint’s mouth shimmered strangely, pulling the emperor’s consciousness.

The emperor felt intuition that the sounds coming out of his mouth from now on were talking about a god that was nowhere in the world.

The emperor’s head nodded heavily.
