Episode 249
64. Overture to Anxiety (4)
The point in time when Baek Sanwoo was alone with the high priest Bassanio.
Theodore and Yura, who escaped as if they were running away, went to find the redeemer, Yelia.
The Heretical Judgment Bureau is the shadow of the temple.
This was because the judges, including Elijah, only served as security guards for the banquet hall, but did not attend the banquet itself.
“Did you two enjoy the banquet?”
“ah… … yes.”
Theodore answered, wagging her tail. I came to see Yelliya, but I wasn’t sure what to say.
Do we really have to expose Baek Sanwoo as a very evil person who controls demons?
That sounds crazy.
It’s not logical at all, and if you said that to the substitute Jelia, who seems to have built a trusting relationship with Baek San Woo for a long time.
There was a risk that the information would flow into the white goat’s ears as it was.
If Baek San-woo realizes that even Yelia was trying to intervene in a situation that is still under some suspicion.
Aside from the fact that the banquet was going on right now, it was unlikely that he would really want to get rid of Theodore and Yura.
If only powerful seniors like Byron, Ilya, and Noel had mind-controlling abilities that could not be resisted… … .
No, maybe if Yelia was also under mental control.
Theodore and Yura will never be able to resist the power of Baeksanwoo.
It just had to be stopped.
Theodore felt a great sense of responsibility for the series of events.
Assuming that the whole of Paradise Island is really playing under Baeksanwoo’s grasp.
Right now, Yura Esther and herself are the only hopes that can overcome this cruel reality.
“Jeliya-sama, there is a big problem now… … !”
“Jeliya, as a devout believer in the light, there is one thing I would like to ask the Redeemer.”
Theodore interrupted Yura, who was about to say something.
Yura Esther turned to Theodore with a surprised expression, but he moved forward as if blocking her and did not stop the conversation.
“Does people come first, or does the will of God come first?”
“What do you mean?”
A question lingered in Elijah’s red eyes. Because it wasn’t a question that should come out of nowhere.
But Theodore is a politician.
A politician should be able to hide his secrets clearly on the tip of his tongue.
In this aspect, Theodore was able to move more clearly than Yura.
“Today, I was very impressed with the congratulatory speech by Esther Seonghwa, Yura and the opening remarks by High Priest Bassanio… … Suddenly, a contradiction arose in my mind.”
Theodore slowly closed her eyes, and immediately began to invent the story.
No, to be precise, it was a problem that Theodore Lincoln had been thinking about several times in the past rather than a concocted one.
“If I graduate from Paradise Island in the future, I will have to take a full-fledged political move in the Federal Republic of Eurakia. But, as Yelia-sama knows, politics isn’t always good, isn’t it?”
Elijah nodded without a word. There was no need to ventilate.
If politics had been good, the world would not have been so divided.
“So it suddenly occurred to me. Even if it is a decision for the happiness of the majority, what if it goes against the will of the Light?”
“It is a very complex and difficult problem.”
Elijah said, putting both hands together. It seemed that he was deeply sympathetic to Theodore’s concerns.
“you’re right. It is a concern that can be applied not only to Theodore, but also to our clergy.”
done!
Theodore exclaimed inwardly, feeling that he had completely mastered the topic of conversation.
“Right now, I too, sometimes do not know what the purpose of light will be. And since I’m a human too, I don’t always act in obedience to the will of the light while claiming to be the shadow of the temple and the sword.”
“Then are you saying that it’s okay to go against the will of the light?”
“But, Sir Theodore, one thing you should know for sure. The meaning of the light is that we do not dare judge.”
“Then how can we judge?”
“It is our heart, Theorard. Goodness, the unbelievers often say, morality.”
In the end, it was up to his own will. When you think about it, if you think it’s not really right.
It means that moving according to that belief is the right answer.
Although he answered vaguely, that was the essence.
Because Yura and Theodore were the answers they wanted.
“… … Even if it is the will of the high priest or the commander of the Temple Knights, are you saying that?”
“of course. They are very good people, but can’t they be the subjects of my faith?”
Elijah fluttered the sky-blue Judge’s robe. The pitch-black cloth swayed with the wind.
“I have only one cross.”
Woosu’s wet red eyes slowly looked up at the sky. Whether the candidate for Seonghwa Woman was also influenced by the appearance, he clasped his hands and responded to Elijah.
“Amina.”
“How are you, Theodore? Would this have been an answer to that question in some way?”
“Of course, your Redeemer.”
Theodore bowed his head politely.
He swore that even the will of the high priest and the commander of the temple knights would be abandoned if it was not the will of the light.
That was enough for today. We still had 3 days and 2 nights left.
The outside escort forces of the temple, which Esther Jura requested, had not yet arrived.
It’s already too early to make a big deal.
Rather, like now, pretending that nothing is wrong will help you avoid Baeksanwoo’s suspicions.
“thank you. I also had a discussion on this topic with Yura Esther, the female student candidate, but it never came to a conclusion. That was a really neat answer.”
It doesn’t matter what the content is.
For Theodore, nothing was more important than the mere fact that Yelia was an ally.
“Fufu, I’m glad.”
“Then we will go to enjoy the banquet. Because there was only one priest who did not talk with other people, except Yelia… … .”
“no. It was nice to be able to have fun conversations for a while between my boring lifeguard work.”
Yeliya responds with a soft smile.
Theodore felt as if she was suffocating for a moment at the beautiful appearance that struck her in an instant.
After she quickly regained consciousness, she and Yura left Yeliya’s side.
“What happened… … .”
Without feeling the gaze of Elijah, who was looking at himself as he disappeared in the distance with worried eyes.

“I… … You knew you were a player.”
“There’s no way you don’t know.”
I had an idea to say. And I thought you might know.
In the main story, he tells Aidan Christopher to follow the direction taught by the Goddess of the Other World.
High Priest Bassanio’s face is facing Aidan, but his gaze seems to be looking into the distance.
In fact, on the forum of Paradise Academia, Bassanio even said that it felt like he was looking at himself through a monitor.
I was one of those people who felt the same way.
‘The fourth wall.’
Under the name of the Oracle of Light, he is the only one who can accurately recognize the player beyond Aidan Christopher.
But this time, his gaze was directed towards me.
Because I am a player.
“I thought I would accompany the spirit of Aidan Christopher, the newly born hero, but… … I was surprised too. Many times, we have turned the oracle back.”
Bassanio said with a kind expression as if recalling memories.
“But in the end I had to admit it. The player accompanies the soul of a man named Baeksan-woo – no, that he has come.”
came
Previously, I expressed it as a companion, but now I am saying that I have been involved. I even realized that my consciousness had completely engulfed this body.
“… … Whoa.”
It was not easy to answer.
I opened my mouth with difficulty as I faced the divine and good eyes that were shining like gold.
“Then, High Priest, do you also know what the future holds for you?”
It is unclear whether Bassanio knew that he would be assassinated in the main story.
However, many users speculate that he chooses to be killed by the commander of the Holy Knights, who can be seen as his closest aide, even though he already knows his fate.
I was going to get a definite answer here.
Was he prepared to die, or was Judas, the commander of the Holy Knights, really going to kill Bassanio?
And the answer.
“Yes.”
It wasn’t clean enough.
“Although it is a little earlier than the original trust I received. Yes, it is.”
Although Bassanio was explaining his death, he seemed very comfortable.
Although it was already expected to some extent, it is quite a refreshing shock.
“Why don’t you refuse?”
“Baek San-woo, I am a priest. And also a priest is one who takes the teachings of God as virtues.”
The silver rosary hung around his neck trembled and trembled.
“If he had told him to punish Judas, the commander of the Temple Knights, and to usurp the authority of Diocletia II, the emperor of the Holy Empire, he would have done it.”
“… … You even made it specific.”
“Doesn’t the Most High One know only that much, haha?”
Bassanio was well aware of the political issues involved and even the forces behind him.
It’s only then that you really did it even though you knew everything.
I was filled with feelings of disappointment, but I was genuinely curious as to why he was making such a decision.
“But the Light did not command it. Instead, I have chosen a person to carry on my will.”
“Are you talking about one person?”
“A storm is coming soon. We are making a full-fledged move on the Liberation Front, and the flow of time has begun to twist.”
“… … yes?”
I questioned the remarks that could not be taken lightly, but Bassanio continued.
“The ruin of the world that sleeps underground on Paradise Island. And Baek San-woo – the right to decide the fate given to the apostle.”
The high priest took out a wooden cross from his bosom.
There were no unusual decorations, nor was it made of high-quality materials.
I could see that this cross was a holy thing that contained a tremendous level of divine power.
And at the same time… … .
A sensation that I haven’t felt in a long time, and therefore even more strange, runs through my body.
“My sacrifice and this item will be preciously used for Baek San-woo’s final choice.”
Let me reach out to the cross as if possessed.
I felt the rough texture of wood along my fingertips, and a familiar window came to my mind.

The moment I realized its identity, my mind went blank.
“… … Why are you doing this?”
