The Evil God Beyond the Smartphone - The Evil God Beyond the Smartphone chapter 76

Church Conference (1)

“It’s raining hard.”

shoot ah ah

As if to signal that the rainy season had arrived, the rain was pouring heavily outside the window.

I don’t really like the muggy summer weather.

However, he did not dislike the view of the rain falling outside the window.

Irregular sound of rain.

A vision that spreads with the splashing water drops.

As I stood in front of the window and watched the rain fall, I realized what the stillness in the sound was.

“Summer is almost over.”

It felt like yesterday that I was frowned in the heat of early summer, but suddenly, summer was less than a month away.

It feels like time has passed in the blink of an eye.

Even so, I don’t want to say goodbye to air conditioning right now, though.

I stood blankly by the window and watched the rain fall, then yawned and turned back.

Immediately after that, I picked up the smartphone from the table, leaned on the bed and played the game as usual.

“I want to play a game.”

tuk.

When I touched the screen, the loading screen of the game came to mind.

No matter how many times I was watching the same screen, I was used to it but I got tired of it.

Of course, if you keep looking at the same screen for several months, there are bound to be elements that you will become attached to.

Just like the ＜Paid Goods Store＞ button located at the top right of the game.

As time passed and the main screen was displayed normally, I first checked the message box at the bottom of the screen.

“Oh, it looks like a quest item has arrived.”

It seems that Yutenia, who had recovered the relic, had offered the item, a message related to it appeared in the message box.

[Relic: Ergus’s Stake].

＜Advance＞ The skill quest related item was finally acquired.

I immediately manipulated the screen and checked the message window of the Advent skill.

On the newly emerging screen, the progress of the quest was rising along with the greatly reduced karma.

– Each time the following conditions are met, the progress of ＜Advance＞ will increase by one level.

– Available Karma: 1328 / 999999 (Unfinished)

– [Holy Relic: Ergus’s Stake]: 1 / 1 (Completed)

– ??? : 0 / 1 (unfinished)

– ??? : 0 / 1 (unfinished)

– ???? (unfinished)

My gaze, which opened the message window, naturally turned to the place marked ‘Done’.

The completion mark appeared in the quest to collect [Holy Relic: Ergus’s Stake].

It was the first quest cleared after starting the game.

When I saw the shining completion mark, my heart was filled with pride.

“Finally, I filled one. I still have four left, but as I play, I’ll fill it up quickly.”

The first item, karma 1 million, was still far from being achieved.

As the number of apostles increases, the amount of karma required increases, and from the next apostle, you must pay 1600 karma to select.

In fact, it was better to view it as a quest that could only be achieved at the end of the game.

Items that are still locked will be unlocked later as the level rises.

After enjoying the joy of seeing the completion mark, I turned my attention to the skill icons at the bottom of the screen.

“Now that you have cleared the quest, you will have to deal with other things.”

After closing the message window for the ＜Adescent＞ skill, I thought while looking at the icons of the ＜regular meeting＞ and ＜regular meeting: invitation＞ skills.

A skill that temporarily gathers designated characters in the same place, ＜regular meeting＞.

By using this skill, communication between characters is possible regardless of distance.

Although there is a drawback that the communication channel between the apostle and me is temporarily blocked.

It was difficult for me to immediately interfere with the ＜regular meeting＞, but it was not a bad skill in terms of sharing information between characters.

Probably because the AI in this game tends to work independently.

We have to fill in the missing information through interaction with each other.

“Given that it is classified as a system skill, it seems that it is not possible only for the apostles.”

The ＜regular meeting: invitation＞ skill, which selects a character to participate in the ＜regular meeting＞, has already been used once by Yutenia.

It was a method in which a ring was given to the character who was the target of the skill.

Considering the experience of using ＜Lightning＞ on animals, it may be possible to invite non-human subjects.

Even so, you should have at least a finger to put the ring on.

I was contemplating on the target to use ＜regular meeting: invitation＞, then I detected a target within a close range and used the skill.

“First of all… I’ll have to get an invitation from you.”

The first target chosen was Pluto.

Pluto Astria.

She was the progenitor of non-human vampires, and she was also one of my apostles.

If my prediction is correct, Pluto with a finger attached would be able to invite enough.

Kwok.

I activated the target by pressing the skill icon of ＜Regular Meeting: Invitation＞.

Then, he touched Pluto, who was next to Yutenia, and designated it as the target of the skill.

– [Third Apostle: Pluto Astria] has been added as a ＜regular meeting＞ member.

At the same time as a ring was given to Pluto’s hand, a new message appeared at the bottom of the screen.

It was a message that Pluto was newly added as a member of ＜regular meeting＞.

Pluto, who obtained the ring, was incorporated into the skill range of ＜regular meeting＞.

After receiving the ring, Pluto tilted his head for a moment, then slipped it into his finger.

Having invited Pluto to be a member of the meeting, I immediately moved the screen in a different direction.

It was to invite the other members to the ＜regular meeting＞ sequentially.

“Next time… is it possible to invite Creatures as well?”

The next thing I found after Pluto was Estasia, located in the Ketterant branch of the Order.

Estasia was not a human, but a character with ten fingers.

She thought that she would be able to wear the ring on her finger without any strain.

I used ＜Ordinary Meeting: Invitation＞ towards Estasia without thinking for a long time.

Estasia, who came within the range of the skill, was engulfed in a halo and acquired the ring.

– [Cherubem: Estasia] has been added as a member of the ＜regular meeting＞.

Like Pluto, Estasia was also invited to the ＜regular meeting＞ without any problem.

After inviting Estasia, I moved the screen again to find the next target.

In addition to Estasia, the denomination had many things to invite.

Apostle Evan and Archbishop Roan.

And, if possible, even a magical skeleton flying with a wand.

Kueberg also came to mind for a moment, but I quickly erased him from my mind.

“He doesn’t even have a finger to wear a ring on, does he?”

Because Kueberg didn’t have the finger to put the ring in.

Just because you don’t have a finger, you can’t put a ring on your eye.

It was easy to put a ring on a finger with only a bone, but it was impossible for a lump without a finger.

Excluding Kueberg from the target, I moved the screen to find the next target.

Because the denomination that had grown in power moved globally, it was necessary to spend quite a bit of time presenting the ring.

“You are invited. And you too…”

Evan is training the sword behind the church.

Roan is busy meeting in the city.

And even a magical bone that luckily found flying in the sky.

I succeeded in inviting all the subjects to the ＜regular meeting＞ safely.

In the process, I made one mistake in skill targeting, but considering the results, it was worth skipping over once.

“…well, it won’t be a problem.”

The only thing that pops up in the message box is the name of the character who used the skill.

There was still the problem of not knowing where the character lived where the skill was mistaken, but I decided to move on, thinking it was the fault of the magic bone that flew quickly.

If it wasn’t for acrosis, there would be no mistake in targeting the skill in the future.

Anyway, if I convened a ＜regular meeting＞, I would know who used the skill.

If it becomes a problem, then why don’t you go ahead and deal with the character?

It wasn’t something I needed to think about for a long time.

After inviting all the characters, I set the meeting time by clicking the skill icon of ＜regular meeting＞.

– ＜regular meeting＞ has been scheduled.

– Would you like to decorate the ＜regular meeting＞ venue?

– Yes No

tock.

I pressed the ‘Yes’ button without hesitation and entered the map of the conference hall.

After that, all that was left was to fill the meeting room with the items in the inventory.

Of course, my inventory was meager, so it didn’t take long to decorate the conference hall.

* * * * * *

Daniel Hethroff.

He was a farmer living on the borders of Everint.

He has been raising livestock all his life, and has been nicknamed the “silent butcher” by those around him for his unique skill in slaughtering animals quietly.

Thanks to that, Daniel was able to cultivate a ranch of unprecedented scale in the Everint region.

However, for Daniel, who had only raised animals his whole life, the scenery he was facing was very unfamiliar.

Under a space full of darkness.

People were sitting around a round table.

A huge skeleton wearing clothes.

A shining angel with flapping wings.

In addition, there is even an unidentified girl who moves the shadow and takes the cake.

Only the suspicious-looking people were standing around Daniel.

“Before we begin the meeting, I will make an oath to the Great.”

And opposite the seat where Daniel was sitting, there was a man who looked like the head of evil.

His name is Roan Hebros.

According to his introduction, he was a person called the Archbishop of the Order.

Roan was also a central figure in today’s conference.

Roan was wearing a luxurious robe, and the way he looked at people was full of charisma.

Roan, who looked at the attendees of the meeting, including Daniel, raised one hand as if taking an oath.

“For the great one.”

– “For the great one.”

“For the great one.”

In an instant, the voices of the attendees reverberated in the conference hall.

Before the meeting began, all the participants raised their hands and began to shout.

Flash. Flash.

Daniel just blinked and looked around blankly.

Then, the eyes of all the participants were focused on Daniel, who was watching the scene.

Daniel raised his trembling hands as the gaze gathered toward him and shouted at them.

“For the sake of the Great, the Great . . .”

“It seems a little awkward since it was the first time. I fully understand.”

“.

Daniel was an outsider who had absolutely nothing to do with them, but he could understand that this place was a very dangerous place.

It is a conference hall where angels and undead coexist.

All of them had an unusual atmosphere.

gulp.

Daniel swallowed his saliva and lowered his arm while pretending to be calm.

Even Daniel followed their slogan, and only then did Roan look around and start the meeting.

“Everyone must have come by a call from the Great, but there are many strangers to me.”

– “To agree.”

“So, first of all, I would like to introduce myself to those who have met me for the first time.”

Roan’s gaze, who asked for an introduction, turned to the undead next to him.

The undead, with only bones left, had a huge appearance.

Daniel looked at the undead there with a tense gaze.

As the undead’s mouth clicked, a hoarse voice resounded in Daniel’s ear.

– “Call me Acrosis.”

“Unbelievable! The legendary ghost king Acrosis!”

– “You seem to know me well.”

Demon King Acrosis.

Hearing the name of the undead echoed in his ears, Roan opened his eyes wide and was astonished.

Even the appearance of an undead is shocking, but it is even nicknamed the King of Spirits.

Daniel, who heard the identity of Acrosis from Roan’s mouth, could not help but be surprised.

After the introduction of Acrosis, the turn passed to the dark-haired girl next to him this time.

She shrugged her chin in a dull-looking voice and spoke to Roan.

“It’s Pluto Astria.”

“Oh no! Plutorani, the progenitor of vampires!”

“Do you know about me too?”

Hearing Pluto’s name, Roan was shocked again this time.

Vampires were monsters that sucked the blood of ancient people.

But the ancestor of such vampires is here.

When Daniel heard Pluto’s introduction, goosebumps rose on Daniel’s back.

It was because the face of the attendees in this conference hall was greater than he expected.

Next to Pluto was an angel spreading his wings.

The angel flapped his wings and explained himself to Roan.

“Estasia.”

“Yes. I enjoyed your introduction.”

“·················ogue.”

Unlike before, Roan did not give any further explanation.

Estasia looked at Roan with a cold gaze.

But Roan didn’t care about Estasia’s gaze, and just stared at Daniel who was next to him.

gulp.

Daniel made eye contact with Roan and swallowed again.

Roan opened his mouth as he looked at Daniel with a friendly face.

“You have one minute left.”

“······Right.”

“Who are you?”

Everyone in the conference room turned their attention to Daniel.

Now it was Daniel’s turn to reveal his identity.

Can I reveal my identity among these great people?

Complex thoughts flashed through Daniel’s mind.

But even at that moment, time continued to pass.

Daniel, unable to overcome the pressure of the approaching time, revealed his identity with a firm face.

“Daniel Hethroff.”

“Daniel? If it’s not rude, may I ask what you call yourself?”

“People call me Daniel the Silent Butcher.”

“I’m Daniel the Silent Butcher… It seems like he’s an assassin with natural skills.

“·················ogue.”

“I think I understand why you were silent. I don’t know when we’ll meet, but if there’s an obstacle in the church, I’ll ask you to deal with it.”

Where the hell did it start going wrong?

Amid the growing misunderstanding, Daniel quietly nodded his head.

If he had had the courage, he would have set everything right, but unfortunately Daniel didn’t have the courage to do so.

In the silence of Daniel’s bewildered, Roan continued the meeting.
