I walked calmly into the open space of the church and took a closer look at the people around me.

The hair color was mainly black, brown, and red, the skin was slightly white, and the facial features gave the impression of being half Eastern and half Western.

They probably thought that my strange appearance was just a matter of individuality.

‘The village people are all ordinary people. But it has magical powers.’

Just as I came to this world with magical powers, I did not know that all life here may have magical powers.

The only person here without magical power is the old monk.

‘is not it? That white energy looks somewhat similar to magical power?’

As I continued to enter the vacant lot, the old man shouted.

“What are you doing! Quickly stop that magician or kill the witch!”

As the old monk shouted, the residents rushed towards me with an expression of helplessness.

“Ugh!”

“Dead!”

I couldn’t be bothered to dodge or block this poor attack, so I just hit it.

Empty! Ting! Kang!

Now, my body is too strong to be injured by iron farming tools or anything like that.

Instead, the iron farm equipment broke when it hit my body.

A peasant looks blankly at the half-broken sickle in his hand.

“Monster.. Monster!”

The villagers slowly backed away.

Then, a young man wearing a sword, who had been standing still near the old man until now, walked up.

“Is that magic? It’s different from what I thought.”

Residents said when they saw the young man walking out.

“Charles! Yes, there was Charles!”

“That’s right, Charles can use Aurors! It will be able to destroy that evil magic that protects the body.”

“Charles! Hurry and kill that magician!”

I listened to the residents and took a closer look at the young man named Charles.

Dark brown hair and skin that is covered in dirt and tanned brown by the sun. But his appearance wasn’t important to me.

I focused my senses and my so-called magic eyes and felt the power that was moving within Charles.

‘I feel pure vitality. Is that the power of an Auror?’

Grumble

Charles drew his sword and started running, swinging it at me.

I observed the characteristics of Charles’ power and greeted him with a counter-bullet strike to gauge its level.

visor!

A blade that bounces back due to the force of anti-tankgyeong.

Charles sees this and his eyes begin to shake violently.

‘Physical ability is at the level of E. When swinging the sword, there is an instantaneous amplification of physical ability, but it is weak. The sword’s strength and power were ordinary, but the weapon could not be strengthened.’

I lost interest in Charles. Just third-rate, the knowledge at this level was obvious.

Even if I taught myself, it would be better than this.

Chak

When the sword flew away, Charles put the sword back into its scabbard in one breath, turned around, and ran away.

“Deflecting the sword with bare skin! It must be Wearbeast!”

“Hurry and run away! This is not the guy we should deal with!”

The villagers run away after Charles runs away.

I was momentarily dumbfounded by those beautiful images of neatly surrendering to power.

Shaking my head

I shook my head and walked towards the monk.

To be honest, I thought about going on a killing spree by killing Charles and all the villagers, but I thought that would draw more attention, so I let him go.

Inside, the fiery snake summoned by a witch named Lucy had been completely subdued and disappeared.

When the old monk saw me coming, he pulled out a dagger from his chest and tried to kill Luisi first.

Of course, there was no way I would just watch that happen.

struggling

The old man, whose body was restrained by telekinesis, was embarrassed and tried to escape somehow, emitting white energy.

“You… who are you! Are you really Marvas’ subordinate?!”

“Marvas? It’s a somewhat familiar name…”

Anyway, if we get the old man’s memories, we’ll be able to find out who Marvas or something like that is.

“Um… senior! Thank you for saving me!”

“Why am I your senior?”

“Uh… he’s a magician like that…?”

Luisi slurred her words, but I didn’t care.

After all, she was also the target of my barbel.

I decided to no longer hesitate to increase the barbell target.

The brakes on the mind have already been broken by the dozens of bandits and the brainwashing of Chae Yu-ah.

I used the barbell against the old man and Luisi.

“Now- Obey me.”

“Ugh tskkat?”

“Ah ok huh?”

Babel’s ever-stronger power destroyed their minds and turned them into my subordinates.

“Hmm~ I like it, I like it.”

Knowledge that flows through a filter.

It swallows up all the knowledge accumulated by this world’s unique civilization.

I feel like the wisdom of people is coming together to elevate my country.

After a moment of omnipotence, I noticed an important fact in my knowledge.

“Marbas… These are the 72 demons of Solomon, right?”

Baal, Gamigin, Barbatos, etc.

On Earth, they are Solomon’s 72 Demons, but in this world, they are called the 72 Demon Lords.

Even without Babel’s interpretation, the pronunciation was the same.

“What is it really? Besides, these fantasy guys have similar genes to humans, right?”

Also, I overlooked it before, but the calendar system is the same here: 24 hours, 365 days. Even though this world even has one more moon.

Twice may have been a coincidence, but three times was inevitable.

In a world without interaction, this similarity to Earth meant that it was absolutely not an ordinary situation.

The highest possibility to infer is…

“God….?”

Intervention of a transcendent being.

I was reminded of the Omphalos hypothesis, which creationists insist on is that the earth was created with a design, intelligent design, or history determined by God.

The former meant fate, and the latter meant that it had already been created that way.

If it were divine intervention, it wouldn’t be strange and everything could be explained… but does it really exist?

The possibility of aliens briefly occurred to me, but I immediately denied it.

I was able to find out by experiencing three worlds.

Each world truly exists in a different universe with different laws.

It was not thought that the aliens had the ability to create a universe.

Going back, I stood there for a while thinking about God, a transcendent being, but I couldn’t get an answer.

Who maintains the same ideas in a completely different world?

why? For what?

“Well, no matter how much I think about it, there is no answer to this story. If there was a God who created or designed the universe, I wouldn’t be able to do anything.”

I still had no information or power.

I gave up thinking about God and focused on this ability.

The white energy used by the old monk, the divine power.

To obtain this, one had to undergo a baptism ceremony held at the parish and transform one’s magical powers.

“Pass this. The power is subordinated to the subject of baptism, right? Moreover, it cannot coexist with magical power. It’s an ability that does more harm than good.”

Its only advantage was that it specialized in dealing with magical power.

“Then this old man is not particularly useful.”

I saw an old monk waiting blankly, stopping all his actions according to my will.

My strength was barely at level D, and taking him with me was all I could do to advertise that I had brainwashing abilities.

An old monk who follows me and has a magical eye and a witch with him?

It looks suspicious to anyone.

I cut down the old man with my sword.

Anyway, I had no hesitation because I was planning to kill him from the moment he saw me and called me a magic eye user.

“Looking back at my memories, I’m not a good guy. The churches of this world are also completely rotten.”

Perhaps because it was not a system of gaining divine power through faith, the church of this world was corruption itself.

In particular, bishops and cardinals who are subordinate to many priests have omnipotence.

From what this old man knew, there was nothing he didn’t do: murder for pleasure, human trafficking, extortion of bribes, embezzlement, torture, and plunder.

I took the money bag out of the old man’s body.

Three kingdom gold coins were worth 14 silver coins, and one gold coin was worth 20 silver coins, so 74 silver coins were obtained. The value of gold is greater here and the value of silver is lower than expected.

‘There are even 10 gold coins stored in the bank. ‘How much have you suffered?’

I admired the resourcefulness of the old man who had saved this much money in this small town, and turned my head towards Luisi.

“Let’s leave this town first.”

“Yes, senior.”

I took Luisi out of town.

Since the monk is dead, the church or the lord will react.

The owner of this estate, Baron Basquel, was not particularly scary, but he had no intention of conflicting with vested interests from the first day he came to this world.

“Lucy, where should I go?”

Although I gained knowledge through Babel, it was ultimately dead knowledge that I buried in a corner of my mind.

Without going through the process of reflecting on and organizing knowledge, it was impossible to utilize it as perfectly as the original owner.

“I think it would be better to go to a land without a ruler. Even if we stay there for just a year, the church will no longer look for us.”

It was the story of a magician living in hiding in a village.

If we go to Mujiji, the territory where the native monsters of this world live, the church will have no way of finding us.

“But it is dismissed. I came here to gain strength, not to live here. Where else?”

“Then, how about the County of Haice? The underworld there is a place where even the count gave up, making it a good place for fugitives to hide.”

Underworld, this was a pretty good candidate.

There must be quite a few skilled people who handle Aurors.

But I was more interested in magic and magic than aurors.

“Hmm. Is there a place with a lot of magicians like you?”

“There is a lawless area outside the border… but security is high and the language used is different.”

“No problem.”

Lawless zone.

According to the memories I gained this time, it was a land of magicians that was created after the old empire, the only nation of mankind, fell to the descendants of the demon king and magicians were hunted down as traitors.

It is a lawless land, a land that does not belong to a nation and is ruled by wizards.

“Hmm. On the way, you can pass through the County of Haith and fall into a lawless area.”

“Hey… senior?”

“Why are you doing that?”

“Can I know your name by any chance?”

I was going to say Im Yu-han, but I thought it would be an unfamiliar name here, so I stopped and thought of a local name.

“72Demon King… Okay, my name is Solomon. From now on, call me Solomon.”

“Okay. Solomon.”

It wasn’t given this name simply because of its coolness and relevance.

Like demon lords like Baal, Agares, and Vassago.

Because, as written on Earth, if there was a destiny in my name to become that kind of being, I wondered whether I would be able to attain that destiny.

“Let’s go, first climb the mountain and aim for Brion Territory.”

Luisi and I left the road and started going into the mountains.
