A huge number of people gathered in the square of the capital city of the Kingdom of Ansellus.

There were so many people that the streets were jam-packed with people, and the main road was so crowded that the line reached the wall.

They are all kneeling and praying with their bodies facing one direction.

The direction is the square in front of the palace.

Among them is the place where I died.

Now a grown woman, Dakota stands there in a very tattered dress. She takes out an old piece of cloth and holds it up. On it is the phrase she used when she signed the contract.

It looks like it was made as if it were a very old document. There’s no way something like that could exist.

Dakota read it.

“The foreign correspondent asks you.”

‘I’ll give myself to you, but later, when you’ve finished finalizing everything, I’ll give you everything I have. How about that?’

The believers of foreign religions rejoice in it all and pray for it.

In other words, I accepted. Then my skin turned white and my hair turned purple. Only a very small number. Those who had fatal injuries or diseases had their skin turn blue.

yes that’s right.

Right now I’m underwater, making contracts with people.

I never thought I’d be signing over ten thousand people at once, but I did it.

And one of my doubts was gone.

If I contract with too many people, I have a suspicion that I may not be able to share myself anymore.

There are over ten thousand people, but I don’t feel like there’s anything lacking at all.

There is no feeling that it could hold more, or that it is even slightly lacking.

Okay, that’s fine.

Let’s try more numbers later.

And as we have this many samples, we have figured out the criteria for developing abilities.

If there is something you strongly desire, and it is a problem that cannot be solved by improving your body, there is a high possibility that you will develop the ability.

However, if that is what you wish for, I don’t know how to interpret it and give you the ability.

Wide is easy to understand.

I wanted to have a unique personality that was different from others.

And that was mixed with the desire to sit in the highest seat. Maybe it’s because fire has the image of being a great power, but Wide got the power of a strong fire.

By the way, how about Tish?

I felt strange about the group I belonged to and wanted to run away.

Then wouldn’t it be right to gain a speed that others can’t usually catch? How did you gain the power of regeneration? A regenerative power that can heal you immediately, whether your arm is blown off, your leg is blown off, or an arrow is stuck in your eye.

There is an unidentifiable gap between desire and ability.

But it’s not urgent right now, so I’ll think about it step by step.

The important thing is that the harvest season has become enormous.

And we were able to draw up a mass production plan.

There is only one path for a powerful human being.

yes.

As expected, the foreign religion spread explosively. In the meantime, Rebecca did something strange.

Holy Land.

So, in foreign religions, there is only one place that can be called a holy place.

That’s where I was executed.

Rebecca came to the Holy Land and gave a kind of guest book to the person who received the blessing, and asked them to write their name. She also gave them a piece of cloth to prove it.

At first I didn’t know what this meant.

But after a few months, I understood. The effects were immediately visible.

The goal of every foreign believer is to come to the Holy Land, receive blessings, leave their name in the guest book at the Holy Land, and then take the evidence home.

that’s right.

Rebecca made a planned pilgrimage to the Holy Land.

Then a huge number of people came to the headquarters of the foreign mission.

Traveling long distances was an ordeal. In the early modern era, when roads were not yet properly developed and transportation was scarce, it was truly a life-threatening undertaking.

But once you get here, you’ll be blessed with instant healing of all your wounds and even become stronger?

Really, everyone, from all over the place, gritted their teeth and came this way.

The movement of people means the movement of wealth.

People and goods poured into the headquarters of the foreign religion, and a huge market was created in the capital of the Ansellus Kingdom.

This means that the kingdom of Ansellus is starting to become wealthy.

When people with purple hair began to spread like locusts, the Church of the Holy Spirit condemned foreign religions with all its might.

They say that even if you live well in the present, those who have sold themselves will have no afterlife after death.

I made a rebuttal that wasn’t a rebuttal under the water.

I just leave the light that is supposed to be the soul?

Of course, if I touch it, it turns black, and if I take away its warmth, its light becomes shriveled and wrinkled as if its body were made of a balloon.

Since it remains, won’t it come back to life someday?

Honestly, I like those scraps anyway, whether they come back to life or not, once they get some warmth.

Anyway, the Church of God chose war, saying that it was for the sake of humanity and that it was risking its life.

Although the number of believers in foreign religions has increased compared to that of the Church of God, the ratio is still barely 5:5.

However, the royal family of each country basically believes only in the Church of the Holy Spirit.

If you look purely at the noble side, the ratio was close to 1:9.

In other words, I think now is the last chance for the Holy Spirit Church to defeat the foreign religions.

The Church of the Holy Spirit gathered the kingdoms that followed it and invaded the kingdom of Ansellus.

But things start to go wrong even before they reach the kingdom of Ansellus.

Because the above is mostly the Holy Spirit, the below is mostly the foreign religion. Even if there are a hundred knights or a magician capable of slaughtering a thousand men in an army, if the soldiers to support them leave, the size of the army will be reduced in an instant.

People who are followers of the Church of God but believe in a foreign religion.

In particular, people with purple hair were used in various places for their abilities that were superior to those of ordinary people, but they were at the bottom in the society of the Holy Spirit Church.

He has the ability, but he is treated badly.

At first, they put a lot of effort into persuading their superiors.

But as I didn’t listen to the end, they started to leave one by one.

Let’s force them to hold on to it with violence, this time they attacked the superiors fiercely.

If someone with special abilities runs wild, it will be difficult for even a knight who can kill a foreign cultist without getting hurt in a one-on-one fight. Especially in a crowded situation, it is nearly impossible to deal with multiple people with special abilities without getting hurt.

Even before arriving at the Kingdom of Ansellus, the army began to dwindle.

Of course, it’s not completely gone. At best, 0.5 percent?

Even so, there are many elite soldiers who are full of faith in the Holy Spirit.

I felt good that this was a war that would allow me to harvest countless warmth, but it was clear that if things continued this way, the foreign religion would be a bit dangerous.

Even people with ability do not have the strong ability to kill people.

One man came from working in the mines and gained the ability to see in complete darkness.

One man came to the world from a job caring for sheep-like creatures, and he gained the ability to speak their language.

The Future Hope Church has many people who have acquired unusually aggressive abilities because of its environment.

And the roots of the foreign religion are people who live at the bottom. They don’t know strategy or tactics, and they have never fought anything other than fights between gangsters.

Although there are many of them, they are not enough to fight a war.

I know that if someone runs away in panic because of fear, everyone else will run away together.

No matter how many there are, you can still lose.

So I gave up on winning and watched the war, hoping to gain a lot of warmth.

And as expected, countless warmth came to me.

So many people died that their blood flowed like a river.

But there’s something strange. It’s a battlefield where even a trained person, let alone an ordinary person, would run away screaming.

But there were very few people who ran away.

I never told you to fight to the death.

I don’t do anything mind-bending in the first place, except for sending Yasle’s memories.

I’ve been watching them the whole time, but I don’t know what they’re thinking.

The moment I come into contact with light is when I gain memories. The moment it becomes harvest time, I gain memories from light and that’s the end.

If a person is killed during the harvest season, at the moment of the murder, I come into contact with the light of the dead person. At that time, I gain memories and warmth from the light.

If the harvester dies for some reason, the only thing I take with me the moment it dies is warmth. I already received the memory the moment I licked the light. I can’t get it again.

That doesn’t mean I don’t know what life is like during the harvest season.

From the moment I make contact, I watch the world through that person’s eyes.

So it’s okay if you don’t remember.

Because I’m watching.

But memory and observation are different.

Memories are more organized, but often lack detail. For example, the warmth of sunlight, a unique smell, or the feel of a touch on your fingertips at a special moment.

In terms of the amount of information, the harvester has more. However, we cannot know exactly what he is thinking. We have to guess by observing his physical reactions.

So I don’t know why they are willing to die to fight against the Holy Spirit Church. They are clearly afraid, but even without being told, they choose to fight and die.

I don’t know why they choose death, but I’m glad that the harvesters get warmth even when they die.

Since there is already an ability to copy the harvester, it would be okay for the foreign religion to lose.

no.

No, that’s not possible.

I can’t give up until I at least hit Hyukkesuni once.

How do I do it?

Is there any way?

Should I edit and send you the memories of someone who is good at martial arts?

No, that takes time.

During the war, I watched the harvesters closely to find a way.

But unlike when I said I would when we signed the contract, when I knew I could make a harvester even if I wasn’t in that world, this time it didn’t seem like that.

In the midst of the chaos.

The Holy Spirit Church’s army arrived at the foreign mission headquarters.

And it was a very fierce fight. A lot of harvesters died. At the same time, a lot of people from the Holy Spirit Church died.

The most surprising person in that war was none other than Rebecca.

I was wondering how she survived, but she’s quite strong. At least, she’s strong enough to not die when she meets an individual or a group.

In the middle of a battlefield.

Suddenly, I wondered what was happening to Rebecca alone, but then a sphere of light appeared with a discharge of light shining from Rebecca’s chest.

Before I was summoned, I had created the heart of a creature that would explode and take away its warmth. But that one. It must have been the heart of a considerably evolved creature.

When the sphere glows, armor and weapons around it will rise up. They will rotate around her and then turn to dust and disappear.

People? What do you think would happen if you put meat and bones in there with the metal spinning?

It’s different.

He became a living shredder, literally grinding people up.

But human power has its limits.

Soon enough, a force that crushed her personal strength stopped her. It wasn’t magic. It was obvious that if she was hit by magic, she would die, but she was able to dodge it by jumping around.

A huge pillar of light fell from the sky.

At that moment, all the harvesters in that place melted and disappeared.

Yes. All the harvesters. Even the harvesters that were fighting on the side of the Holy Spirit Church have disappeared.

But everyone here knows what this means.

The Holy Spirit worked.

I thought the foreign religion would be defeated here.

Honestly, how do you beat that?

No matter how strong the Harvester is compared to the average person, he can’t deal with a god with orbital bombardment capabilities like that.

But in the middle of where the pillar of light disappeared.

Rebecca was alive and well.

Instead, I was laughing.

She just turned around and went back to where the foreign believers were gathered.

I was wondering why she was laughing when Rebecca, standing in front of the foreign believers, shouted.

The Holy Spirit burned the blessed ones who were on his side.

The Holy Spirit Church, who were listening to that from the other side, cheered when they heard that. I also thought that I was doing something good for the Holy Spirit Church.

I was watching and making various guesses because I didn’t know what Rebecca thought about foreign religions, but things started to go strangely.

You burned the harvester with light, regardless of whether it was friend or foe?

The story changes as evidence becomes that the Holy Spirit’s inclusiveness is fake.

And this is how the story was completed.

‘From the beginning, the Church of God was a religion for the privileged class.’

Word spread like wildfire, and anyone who was even slightly outside the establishment began attacking them.

The Holy Spirit never accepted them in the first place, and the Holy Spirit soldier who just now melted his friend who was fighting alongside him stabbed the royal family and nobles from behind.

Confusion spreads.

The army called up by the Holy Spirit Church was leaving the headquarters of the foreign church right in front of their noses.

The Holy Spirit showed his power in front of them, and that caused the church to collapse.

And not only foreign religions, but also people of other religions or even non-religious people moved. The Church of the Holy Spirit became a religion of a narrow-minded god, a god not worth believing in.

In other words, the Church of God was completely destroyed in this war.

In the words of just one person, the foreign religion not only won the battle, but also achieved the status of a universal religion.

On this day, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints effectively ended.

The surviving Christians fled, and the Foreign Church celebrated its victory.

And right after the war ended.

A time when post-war recovery has not yet been fully completed.

Rebecca, who is considered an incarnation of God, declared a witch hunt.

Then a festival was held.

The festival’s contents are as follows.

The witch of joy, Hunkeshni, is tormenting.

Everyone, have fun participating.
