    Recovery (5) ― One Mind Salvation Church ‘Sanctuary’

    A white man and woman pass through the protective shield and gently land in the sanctuary.

    “The leader has arrived!”

    Among them, a believer who saw the man’s face shouted at the top of his voice.

    The busy sanctuary stopped all at once at the shouts of believers.

    “Aaaah― Cult leader!”

    “Cyo, the leader has arrived! Cult leader—!”

    Maintenance believers also repaired cars that had been neglected after losing their owners.

    The harvest team that moved wedding dresses and tuxedos.

    All the believers who had applied and were receiving applications for the Salvation Ministry also became one with the floor and bowed down.

    “Hahaha- Wake up. I already know in my heart your admirable dedication.”

    I smiled brightly and helped them stand again.

    The believers slowly got up, folded their hands, and looked at me with tears in their eyes.

    “Hehehe― No matter how you look at it, the Ministry of Salvation cannot be given to you, sons and daughters.”

    After making a light joke, they resumed their work.

    I gave Ju-hye Joo a look telling me to go and walked towards the door of salvation.

    The lawn where the Salvation Gate was spread out was full of medical workers waiting for secondary confirmation and classification.

    They were staring blankly at me walking towards them, receiving everyone’s adoration.

    However, even the classified believers who were supposed to manage them just looked at me approaching with dreamy eyes.

    ‘After all, nothing has only advantages.’

    I smiled slightly and stood for a moment, swinging the sanctuary around.

    I start working again, but I can’t concentrate and my hands are shaking.

    He keeps turning his head and glancing at me.

    The will to capture me in his eyes for just one more moment was clearly conveyed.

    ‘Should I like this or not?’

    Pick again – With a burst of laughter, I hurried my steps towards the door of salvation.

    Belatedly, the group of believers led the medical staff and began to pave the way for me to reach the door of salvation more comfortably.

    When I smiled to express my gratitude, the believer with an overjoyed expression repeatedly bowed in joy.

    “It’s an honor, it’s such a great honor… ”

    The sanctuary was a space that was intended to be set up in paradise as a space where chosen believers could enter.

    Although more people than expected are now allowed to enter for harvest and transportation purposes, its meaning has not faded.

    All the believers staying at the sanctuary were saved by me and were devoted believers who were more devoted to me than anyone else.

    Moreover, as someone who remembers the extraordinary acts committed by fanatical fans in modern society, isn’t the reaction of our members of the Church of Salvation a reaction of restraint as much as possible?

    Moreover, my feeling of seeing their reactions was thrilling, and it didn’t feel bad at all.

    The only problem was that work efficiency was a little low, but this was something that could be done as long as the believers did not show up when they were working.

    ‘Well, these are the days of life as a religious leader.’

    When I finally received ‘Kyoju Maker’, I felt proud as I felt like I was one step closer to the moment I had been looking forward to.

    I looked behind me again before going through the door of salvation.

    The medical staff looked at me with confusion, as if they were seeing something unknown.

    The day will not be long when fanaticism will appear in their eyes.

    ***

    “You are really shameless… .”

    Seong Ga-eul hinted in a boiling voice.

    The office of the vice-priest of the temple.

    I took the chair she was sitting on, sat down, and tapped her thigh with an expression that said I didn’t know anything.

    “Autumn’s exclusive chair is complete!”

    Haha, she sighed deeply and looked through the documents again while standing.

    “So. Have you secured a lot of doctors?”

    She asked me, her gaze still focused on the document.

    “First of all, doctors in hospitals that didn’t burn down are scraping together what they can.”

    I also erased my playful smile and answered.

    “Well, you must be working hard. Since he went out shouting loudly, he must have been triggered by his unique competitive spirit.”

    “… … Isn’t it?”

    “Look. You activated it right away.”

    “… … .”

    That woman really has a poisonous snake in her mouth.

    I cleared my throat and picked up one of the documents lying on the desk.

    [Medical believer training plan]

    “Oh… … .”

    As the title caught my interest, I decided to read the document I had been skimming over and started reading.

    “Because they are elites, they pay a lot of attention. The number of learning centers has been greatly increased, and the number of people in one learning center is being adjusted so that it does not exceed 10 people.”

    “Fill all but 10 with devoted believers?”

    “Yes. In addition, those 10 people were screened and avoided colleagues at the same hospital as much as possible.”

    I nodded to her supplementary explanation and finished reading the document.

    Collected personal information of missionary targets and their classification process.

    It was even written down in great detail, including the classification of devotees to the medical professionals, who were strictly kept to a small number.

    The missionary work that took place in learning centers was a typical method of missionary work that led to the phenomenon of group sympathy.

    To begin with, there are not many people who are free from group pressure.

    A subtle and continuous missionary work that touches the essence of human beings regardless of their educational background.

    “Wow, that’s really planned.”

    “In the first place, everything has to be done in a planned manner. Aren’t you being too reckless?”

    Just by looking at it, I could see that it was a remark aimed at the Salvation Department and the joint wedding.

    I smiled brightly and looked at Seong Ga-eul’s face, which was particularly irritating today.

    I remembered Joo Ju-hye’s words again, saying that it was actually scary because she didn’t say anything about grace.

    “The third grace is definitely yours.”

    “What are you saying again all of a sudden?”

    “It’s just that. Rather, it wasn’t you who was the first.”

    She looked at the document and looked up at me for the first time.

    “I know. You probably did it because you had an idea.”

    “I know you well. So stop complaining and come here quickly.”

    “… … I don’t like that.”

    “Uh-huh! The heavenly leader is speaking! Teeek―!”

    “… Haaa—”

    In the end, Seong Ga-eul, who gave in to the ignorance, came towards me with a loud sound.

    When I smiled brightly at her, she shook her head.

    I hugged her who was sitting on my lap and immediately put my face into her neck.

    Every time I sniffed her body, the soft hair tickled the back of my neck.

    As I clung deeper to her neck and caressed her stomach at the sweet smell like fruit, she was startled and stopped my hand.

    slap-

    “Do not touch the stomach! Don’t touch your stomach!”

    Seong Ga-eul once again let out a long sigh of resignation as my hand continued to draw circles, ignoring the snapping blows.

    I giggled and continued playing with her smooth stomach.

    “Why are you suddenly so obsessed with weddings? Is it really because of the believer copy event and all?”

    “Of course. Moreover, it fits well with the word ‘restoration’ that was used when establishing the church court. Restoration of the family.”

    “Then, you just have to do it one by one. Why are you suddenly creating such a mountain of work?”

    She was indignant as she looked at the documents piled up on her desk.

    “The strange currency and absurd barter system you created has not yet been established, but a large-scale event called a joint wedding… Haaa―”

    “Why are you like this~ It was something I had to do anyway~”

    “That’s true. Don’t talk irritably. Because I want to enlarge the corners of my mouth as well.”

    “… … Let’s go.”

    After answering in an exaggeratedly sullen voice, he buried his face in the crook of her neck again.

    After taking a few quiet breaths to let off steam, she spoke again in a calm voice.

    “First of all, the wedding dress and tuxedo for the bride and groom to wear as a group is a problem. Exactly how many couples do you want for the wedding?”

    “Hmm… Since this is my first time, wouldn’t 100 pairs be okay?”

    “Including the lovers currently dating within the Salvation Church? Or something new?”

    “What, there are believers who are dating?!”

    As if she expected me to jump up, she quickly grabbed my arms.

    “None.”

    “Huh?”

    “Nothing. I already checked all the faces.”

    Ah, Seong Ga-eul’s aesthetic sense is trustworthy.

    I sank back into the chair, trying to jump up.

    Although it is farther away than you think, you can find a lover even in the apocalypse.

    This is why it was said that even in the midst of war, a child appears… … .

    As if to comfort me, Seong Ga-eul directed my hand back to her stomach.

    Sseuuu

    She asked only after she noticed my hands playing with her stomach again.

    “Combined? Or new?”

    “Of course it’s combined. In fact, it’s even better. At this point, I’m going to get married, get a new house, and get a kid like a rabbit.”

    “Good. Including existing lovers. About 100 pairs would be enough to cover wedding dresses and tuxedos at a wedding shop in Incheon. You don’t really want to wear the same design, do you?”

    “Of course not. To do that, you have to buy it at a store… ”

    [Elementary Wedding Dress: 1000 Faith]

    [Elementary Tuxedo: 1000 Faith]

    It was a little too expensive.

    It cost the same as one zombie cure.

    Is the price pumped up because this is an outfit worn only on a special day?

    Reality… A store window…

    “Never buy it. These days, you’re already spending a lot of points to buy treatments.”

    “I know. I didn’t even say I was alive.”

    “Good. So now the problem is how to connect new couples… ”

    “That… Autumn.”

    At my question, she turned her head slightly and looked at me.

    I asked with a grin.

    “Isn’t that a problem that the pontoon pontoon owner can take care of?”

    “You make so much money, right?”

    “Uh-huh, those words are blasphemy.”

    “Such a dog—!”

    I held onto her waist tightly and didn’t let her go.

    The commotion of chairs shaking continued for a while.

    Seong Ga-eul, who was shaking her whole body with a life-threatening spirit, was unable to break free from my bonds and sank down.

    haha-

    She was panting as she leaned against my upper body and opened her mouth in a resigned tone.

    “… … good. While I prepare that, let’s try something new this time.”

    “Suddenly? I’m more anxious now than when I was cursed… … .”

    I looked at Seong Ga-eul, who was leaning on me with a nervous expression.

    Seong Ga-eul turned her head to meet my gaze and continued her explanation.

    “Joint wedding for one day. You become a humane religious leader.”

    “… … I think they are still treating believers humanely enough―.”

    “That’s not what I meant. Think back on what you have done through the eyes of believers.”

    After hearing her words, I took a moment to reflect on what I had done recently.

    Build a building in paradise.

    Using a zombie cure.

    Ordinary people were reborn as awakened people with power.

    They used the points to buy necessary items and make the wishes of believers come true.

    If you look at this through the eyes of believers.

    The existence of me.

    He literally created something from nothing, such as bringing down buildings from the dry sky and making food and wishes come true.

    Now, zombies who were thought to never return to humans have been brought back to life as humans.

    The image of the ‘almighty religious leader’ performing truly awe-inspiring and wonderful miracles.

    “No matter how much I think about it, it won’t look bad, right?”

    “You have been doing well enough so far. So, it’s only for one day. Just for one day, I ask you to show the leader who is more humane than anyone else.”

    At first glance, a similar image came to mind from her repeated answers.

    “Ah! Are you saying that politicians who experience common people should do something similar?”

    “Yes. People want an absolute God, but they also want a more human God than anyone else. An absolute person who has the same experiences and thinks the same thoughts as oneself.”

    Think about the gods people have thought of and portrayed.

    Her last words reminded me of the gods who were more human than anyone else.

    The god of lightning whose lower body was the main body.

    The gods of the North worked hard to prevent Ragnarok, but eventually succumbed.

    Gods who were all too human rather than absolute.

    “Aren’t you worshiping me more because I don’t have that appearance? I think there will be a bit of a difference in likes and dislikes about this… .”

    “… … You didn’t seem so thoroughly omnipotent.”

    okay?

    She smiled brightly as she looked at me whimpering in disappointment.

    “Just for that day, a god who could not be seen or touched comes down from the sky. Laugh together, have fun together, and delve deeper into their hearts.”

    Remember, Han Gu-won.

    To human emotions.

    In faith and love.

    There are no limits.

    I smiled awkwardly, looking at her bright smile that didn’t match her sparkling eyes.

    Whenever he smiles like that, he always makes me do strange things.
