You are not God (1) – One Mind Salvation Church Paradise

“It’s fun.”

After the broadcast ended, I looked back at the dark electronic display board and laughed.

Also, it seemed like I wasn’t the only one who had fun.

[A large-scale event planned directly by the Awakened has occurred!]

[‘proof’]

[Ha Chae-kyung from ‘Minguk’ invites Han Gu-won from ‘Paradise’ to her city!]

[The system assists the awakened people’s events!]

[One. ‘Republic of Korea’ and ‘Paradise’ will be designated as protected cities until the event ends!]

[2. During the event period, the system records everything that happens in ‘Minguk’ and broadcasts it. (There will be independent editing.)]

[3. Event planner ‘Ha Chae-kyung’ and key awakener ‘Han Gu-won’ must have a conversation for broadcast at least once.]

[4. All people watching the broadcast are added up and points are calculated between the two awakeners.]

[5. All non-consensual violence is prohibited in ‘Republic of Korea’ during the event period.]

[Would you like to appear on ‘Proof’?]

[Ha Chae-kyung (Y/N) Han Gu-won (Y/N)]

“You’re excited too.”

Messages pouring in like they had been waiting.

The sparkling message window was updated as if urging a response.

[Ha Chae-kyung (Y) Han Gu-won (Y/N)]

Number 2, I immediately agreed as if there was no reason to worry.

“What, did something happen?”

Seonggaeul asks me as I look at the message window.

All the executives at the table were looking at me with worried faces.

“It looks cool… … .”

I don’t think it’s that bad.

Anyway, I was planning to focus on internal affairs for about a month thanks to the cooldown that took up the beginning.

In the meantime, isn’t this event an opportunity to further advertise the Church of Salvation for free?

Of course, there was a risk factor that the event took place in an enemy territory, but

On the contrary, if there is violence, the system will bubble up and stop it.

It was truly an opportunity to safely begin missionary work in enemy territory.

So I also had no reason to refuse.

[Ha Chae-kyung (Y) Han Gu-won (Y)]

[The Awakened event ‘Proof’ begins!]

[Please accept ‘Paradise’’s invitation from ‘Minguk’ within 3 days!]

Paaa!

With the message window disappearing with light, the top of the ‘Heavenly Shield’ surrounding Paradise flashed.

A black film spreads over the orange protective film.

It was a protective layer of the system that was often seen in ‘Seoul Night’.

“What! Why is the system isolating us again? What have you done again?”

Seong Ga-eul was frightened by the black film covering paradise.

I hurriedly blocked the white hand coming toward my back with my telekinesis.

“Uh-huh! Other executives are also watching this, but the vice-president is still helpless!”

“Why don’t you let go of this?! What the hell did you do again?”

I calmly explained the details of the event to the clinking Seong Ga-eul and other executives.

Seong Ga-eul, who had expected my clear explanation to calm her excitement, became even more angry and writhed.

“You’re a crazy cult leader! Why did you agree to that right away without even discussing it?!”

“No, do we even have to discuss work plus work?”

“You have to do it, you! Moreover, we were right in front of us too!”

Seong Ga-eul shouted with a red face and took a deep breath to drown out her excitement.

Phew! Phew!

Seong Ga-eul, who regained her calm demeanor, slowly nodded.

“… … I’m not sure what number 2 to aim for yet, but if it’s an event that involves the system, it would be better to participate.”

“No, look at that! I too am shaking my head―”

I sensed life in her eyes as she glared at me.

Looking at me silently speaking, she sighed and spoke again.

“The event with the story of the second provocation attracted attention, and it was promoted through broadcasts that said it was proof or something, and indirectly evangelized in the Republic of Korea―”

She pursed her lips and mumbled.

“I also met an awakened person who was number 2 or something.”

Even though I wasn’t attacked, my shoulder twitched.

When she saw my shocked face, she sighed and looked back at the table.

Shim So-young, who is looking at them with a sad look on her face, and Yoon A-young and Joo Ju-hye, who are just smiling and looking at the leader, just like the religious leader.

She growled as she touched her throbbing temple.

“Then let’s all go together.”

“… … Huh?”

Everyone here?

She answered as if she had heard my unspoken question.

“There was no specific request for the leader to come alone. Let’s all the awakened people move to ‘Minguk’ this time.”

“Do you mean to kill them from the beginning with the number of awakened people?”

“It’s about showing off force and dealing with unexpected variables. Anyway, paradise is protected by the system and there is a chieftain in the beginning.”

Well, if it’s Autumn Dream, then so be it.

I immediately nodded and she cleared up the situation with a clap sound.

“Good. Our leader, who hates hesitation, is probably planning to leave tomorrow, right?”

“Of course.”

They said it would be within 3 days, but I didn’t want to delay it.

“Then, member Soyoung, please pick up the knight armor from the blacksmith shop today. The quantity for awakened people to wear will be ready.”

“Yes.”

My eyes sparkled as I listened to the conversation, falling in love with Soyoung Shim who nodded silently.

Oh, are we finally seeing knights in armor?

[smithy]

[Number of people: 100 people (apprentice blacksmith)]

Prototype armor of the Knights Templar created by inexperienced blacksmith apprentices.

The white armor, which focused only on decoration rather than practicality, looked stylish to me.

Having celebrated the first armor made at the blacksmith shop, I can guarantee that it is stylish.

“Please relay the conversation that just took place to the vigilante leader. Empty your entire inventory too – No. Come out with me now.”

“Yes, of course.”

Seong Ga-eul and Shim So-young hurriedly left the conference room.

Suddenly, it seemed like there was a lot of work to be done for the trip to Minguk, which was scheduled for a day later.

“Take care of the believers. There won’t be a fuss now.”

Seong Ga-eul’s request rings just before the door closes.

I nodded and looked down at the square from the window.

“Let’s pray! Let us all pray for the dirty whore!”

“The leader showed his anger to the black sky!”

“I praise the religious leader who looks down on even non-believers! I pray for the repentance of that prostitute with the mouth of the devil!”

All the believers who watched the broadcast knelt down and put their hands together.

They were looking at the sky and repenting passionately in their own voices.

I clicked my tongue slightly as I saw the tears flowing from their eyes.

“Even if it rots, it is acceptable. When I hit him first through the broadcast, he counterattacks through the broadcast.”

In addition, event broadcasting is supported by the system.

Although her provocation did not cause a fatal blow to Paradise, it was clear that it disrupted peaceful daily life.

so.

“See you tomorrow, number 2.”

How beautiful is the city where such intelligent people reside.

I will see it with my own eyes.

***

It’s been a day since the second invitation broadcast aired.

The morning when the sun had just appeared on the mountain ridge, signaling the next day.

All the believers of the Salvation Church gathered on the platform.

A crowd of people formed a crowded circle around the platform.

I climbed onto a temporary platform in the center of the circle.

Vigilantes erected a wall as if to guard the podium.

The armor, shining white with elegant curves, caught the sunlight.

After looking at the awakened people who looked even more like knights with their custom armor, I looked down.

The believers held hands together with bright eyes.

“What are you afraid of, and what are you sad about?”

There have been many temporary absences from paradise, but there has never been such an open move into enemy territory.

The believers shed tears while repeating, “Mr.

“Do not cry, my children. There is no reason for you to be sad.”

Everyone looked up at me, wiping their hot tears with their white sleeves.

I continued speaking with a benevolent smile.

“However, it is a little heartbreaking to know that there are still so many people who have closed their eyes.”

“Church leader― I am the leader―!”

“Black Black Black― Don’t go, cult leader!”

“Kyojuniim—!”

A paradise that immediately becomes a sea of tears due to its bitter tone.

He spoke softly to the believers who were pounding their chests and crying like children.

“How can you make me say it twice? Don’t cry, my children.”

My grinning smile appeared on the wet pupils of the believers who were holding back their tears.

“That’s why I’m going. Everyone in the land of unbelievers who has been deceived by Satan the devil.”

‘Minguk’ is.

“I will open my eyes today.”

Ahhh-!

The exclamations of believers ringing in my ears as I climb the stairs.

I believe it! I have complete faith in the religious leader!

The vigilante who controlled the believers who were heated with the heat of faith followed.

Sooo!

The train arrived at the expected time.

The awakened members of the Church of Salvation boarded the train with the door open.

As the executives, including me, sat down, the vigilantes surrounded the wall again.

A familiar face found on the wall of shining armor.

“See you again, Youngho.”

A devoted believer who was the first in Guro-gu to cross the gate of salvation.

Park Young-ho was the main character of the ‘grace’ given after Seong Ga-eul.

“Aaaah― Cult leader―”

Park Young-ho’s eyes turn red again when he hears my name.

I shook my head with a small smile as I listened to the rapid-fire praise immediately after the grace had already been given.

“New employee. Be alert ahead.”

A word from Soyoung Shim who read my eyes.

Shim So-young stared out the window with a pouty face as he gave her a happy smile.

I turned my head around and looked at the train.

A train compartment full of awakened believers of the Church of Salvation.

Everyone was here except Seo Eun-ho, who was a child, and other awakened people who had not yet completely converted.

Nowadays, it is difficult for even awakened people to remember the name of the One Mind Salvation Church unless they are special people.

More than 90% of that power was in this train compartment.

Push profit―

With the sound of the door closing, we pass by believers who are sending us off with fervent prayers.

Nettle liquid!

The train that left paradise without shaking passed through the beginning.

I saw tribe members doing a strange dance in a green meadow.

On the altar they seemed to have built, a priest was shaking his body joyfully.

After watching the beginning for a moment, I leaned back against the backrest.

I didn’t know how long it was until ‘Minguk’, where I didn’t even know where it was.

A break that isn’t a rest for a moment-

[‘Paradise”s entry into ‘Republic of Korea’ has been confirmed. The event starts.]

The message window was updated shortly after passing through the beginning.

“I think we’ve arrived, leader.”

I nodded to the assistant principal’s polite words confirming that the position was vacant.

Push profit―

The first step into the Republic of Korea arrived much sooner than expected.

[Welcome to the democratic city ‘Minguk’.]

[The Special Act on Citizens of the Republic of Korea applies.]

[The Awakened Violence Prohibition Act applies.]

[Train ban laws apply. Because it does not belong to the ‘Republic of Korea’, it is excluded from the effect of the law!]

“I guess you came sooner than I thought.”

An old man greets us as we arrive on the platform in an orderly manner.

The old man, who had a rather solemn look for an old man, turned his head.

“A little more people came than expected.”

The reverberation of mana felt from inspiration.

I smiled softly as I looked at Minguk’s awakened self.

“Don’t be scared. We came here for missionary work, not for war.”

“Hehehehe― Do these self-proclaimed gods calculate age differently?”

All the vigilantes were enraged by the old man’s absurd tone.

When the old man saw me holding out my hand to stop the members, he turned his back on me.

“Well, let’s go anyway. Because your mother came to meet you.”

A pure white wave calmly followed the old man’s back.

I went down the stairs of the platform and looked closely at Minguk.

The city is empty except for one area that appears to be the center.

I kept seeing shabby buildings that seemed to have just begun to develop.

“Is that the cult leader?”

“I think so. The CEO came out to meet you.”

Citizens looking at the platform with not-so-clean faces.

An unbearable stench was emanating from their old and worn-out clothes.

“I didn’t expect you to come so quickly. I received the message and came out quickly.”

A few people gathered right under the stairs.

Among them, number 2, who was in the lead, welcomed me with his unique rhyming voice.

“Nice to meet you. no. 1. Welcome to Republic of Korea.”

“It’s nice to meet you too, number 2.”

Cheolgruguk-

A long line, starting with the leader, stopped to greet each other.

Vigilantes wearing white armor and executives wearing pure white Awakening uniforms.

“As expected, your face is as young as your voice?”

My eyes lit up as I saw the reverberations of countless mana blooming around her.

A brother who looks at us with deep eyes.

An old man guided us and rejoined them.

And the little child calmly holding on to number 2’s leg,

A man who appears to be a high school student staring blankly ahead.

All of these people were awakened.

The number of awakened people is unimaginable unless you have a trait that grants grace like mine.

I stared at number 2 with new eyes.

“You have more luck than you thought.”

“That’s too much praise.”

He glanced to the side, looking at Number 2, who smiled lightly.

The vigilantes summon the boxes in their inventory in a hurry at my glance.

“I was well aware of your poor circumstances. I would be grateful if you could receive it as a housewarming gift.”

“This little guy is turning us into beggars―”

“There was a shortage of supplies, but it worked out well. I gratefully accept it. Everyone―.”

The brothers and the awakened people of Minguk, who were rolling their eyes with scary expressions, slowly approached.

An awakened person from the Republic of Korea who quietly looks at us even at such moments.

He looked at the vigilantes and whispered quietly.

“… … Kim Hae-il. Jeongwook Lee.”

The vigilantes turned their heads when their names were called.

The eyes of the vigilantes who handed the box to the approaching awakened person wavered.

“Jinheon.”

I could tell from the surprised tones of our members.

That that guy is the awakened person that I was unable to obtain at Gongseong High School.

A familiar voice that I hear as I look at him with interesting eyes.

“… … Salvation, brother?”

A buttery bass sound that naturally makes you frown.

I tilted my head and looked away.

“… … Is Guwon your older brother?”

under-!

I forgot what I was going to say for a moment and let out a laugh.

Still a strikingly handsome face.

The guy I thought was dead looked at me with trembling eyes and turned his gaze slightly to the side.

Next to me, the assistant teacher in office look who was assisting me was staring blankly at one place.

“… … Autumn.”
