    140 – Hyde, giving away “Village of Back Alley Nymphs”! # 2

    “The new Pope has a kind heart.”

    “The only person who extends his hand to infectious disease patients like us is Pope Lucy.”

    The people of Barakhan liked Lucy.

    Anyway, the practical matters are handled by Archbishop Medici Archibald, Archbishop Hugo, and me, Hyde.

    All Lucy had to do was wander the streets and meet people, and that was everything.

    “Like an angel.”

    “She’s like my granddaughter, and I want to take care of her in various ways.”

    “That wife, Yingyingyaing, is also nice.”

    Image was important to a leader.

    Although there are some awkward parts, Lucy’s lively image of trying hard seemed to give the message that ‘there is hope’ to those who were exhausted from the war and Cusan’s tyranny.

    I also walked around the streets and asked people.

    “Are the Knights still tyrannical?”

    “No.”

    “Then, did you receive “Back Alley Nymph’s Village”?”

    “Yes, that’s right. It’s a great book.”

    “If so, please attend worship on Sunday and write a review. For those who write comments, we will reduce the offering and reduce the five trillion to a tithe.”

    “Go… Thank you! But I… Are you a person who can’t read? I am very, very sorry, but I have never read a book as great as The Village of Backstreet Nymphs. I’m so sorry. Really.”

    “It’s okay. Every Sunday, we provide free education on how to read letters at church. While you are unable to read the text yourself, a professional reader will read the book to you every Wednesday during the service.”

    “… That’s very good… It sucks… ! Very good… cow… !”

    People also had positive reviews of “The Village of Back Alley Nymphs,” which I distributed in full in full for free.

    Everyone loves it!

    Actually, it was natural.

    Because I, who was chosen by the Lord, is the greatest masterpiece created by incorporating the theological essence and all kinds of narratives of my life over the past 20 years!

    In fact, it was a book that everyone had to worry about because they couldn’t get it even if they paid money, but it was natural that people were happy to give it away for free.

    Honestly, half of Lucy’s approval rating is thanks to me.

    “This is welfare. This is correct populism.”

    Barakhan, which had been in disarray due to the death of the Pope and the tyranny of Cusan, became infinitely more perfect through my “Village of the Back Alley Nymphs.”

    I dare say that it was no exaggeration to say that it was the greatest era of reign in the history of the church.

    “Good. I solved one thing. Now that we’ve tidied up the inside, it’s time to turn our attention to the outside.”

    Now all that was left for us was a negotiation with the queen of the capital, Ginebit.

    I walked towards Lucy, who was sitting on the constellation, and spoke.

    “Lucy. The schedule for the meeting with Queen Ginevit has been set. He asked if it would be a good idea to hold a meeting in the Durgien region, halfway between the royal capital and the provincial capital of Barakhan.”

    It was a great place for a meeting.

    Lucy, who was sitting awkwardly on the constellation, placed the Pope’s staff in her hand on her knee and slapped herself on the cheek.

    “I’m nervous! Can I do well? First of all, when you meet the queen, you have to tell her not to join hands with heretics… .”

    “Lucy. Don’t forget the most important thing. That is, distributing all copies of “Village of Back Alley Nymphs” to all kingdom residents. This is the fastest and surest path to peace.”

    Barakhan was a kind of testing ground for me.

    The citizens of Barakan said that they were very happy after receiving “Back Alley Nymph Village” and that fighting stopped and their quality of life improved.

    So what if we distribute the world’s greatest masterpiece, “The Village of the Back Alley Nymphs,” to all kingdom residents?

    It was clear that war would disappear from the world and only peace and love would remain!

    Every single person in this world.

    Distribute “Village of Back Alley Nymphs” to all those people.

    Wasn’t that the calling I was called to this land with?

    “The Lord said that he will return to this earth when the gospel of the Lord spreads to the last person of the earth. Maybe I was given that role.”

    “Hyde! I will do my best so that everyone can read “The Village of Back Alley Nymphs”!”

    Lucy clenches her fists.

    Lucy asked as if something had occurred to her.

    “So what happened to Kusan?”

    “I am in charge and managing that guy myself.”

    Former Emperor Kushan was imprisoned.

    It was to save his soul.

    Speaking of which, I decided to go to Kusan.

    Cusan was imprisoned, and ironically, the prison warden was Naib, a red knight.

    “Sir Naib. How is Kusan?”

    “The person is completely broken.”

    “Isn’t the torture too severe? Naive. Pope Lucy’s teaching is to stop torturing people. Torture is barbaric.”

    People torturing people.

    It was a very terrible thing.

    Lucy banned ‘torture’ throughout Barakhan and gave people the right to hire a lawyer even if the subject was a terrible criminal or heretic.

    “I know. No more torture or anything like that. We must follow the new Pope’s words carefully.”

    Gold plated knight Naib.

    She was truly like a bat.

    They say it sticks this way and that way.

    “Anyway, I really didn’t do anything.”

    “Is that so? I will believe it once.”

    Sze-.

    I entered the prison where Cusan was kept.

    Cusan had his hair unkempt, had grown a beard, and was drooling from his mouth.

    Still, he was once a confident guy who would say arrogant things to me, but it was terrible to see him become such a waste.

    “Kusan. I said I had excommunicated you, but I have not yet given up on saving your soul. Cusan. I brought something for you today too. It is the “Village of Back Alley Nymphs.””

    Sze-.

    I took out “The Village of Back Alley Nymphs” from my pocket.

    In order to save Kusan’s soul, I was reciting the village of the back alley nymphs for Kusan every day for about an hour.

    The effect was so good that even Kusan’s eyes, which seemed like a wreck, seemed to regain some vitality.

    “Geuaaagh… ! Well, stop it… ! I get it… ! Shouldn’t I just tell you everything I know…? ! Hyde, you devil… !”

    “No. I already know everything you know. I don’t really want to hear anything from you. I want to save your soul. I also brought a new certificate today.”

    Back Alley Nymph’s Village Volumes 5 and 6.

    “Isn’t it nice to be able to find out about the latest episode of “Back Alley Nymph’s Village” faster than anyone else?”

    Priesthood was the story of Oinoi, a nymph who fell into an unfamiliar world, met a great king, and became his great ‘chief nymph preacher.’

    Of course, this was my autobiographical story, and it contained my valuable experiences and subjective religious interpretations of them, more than anyone else in the world.

    “I can’t believe I can hear such a story directly from the mouth of the author, Hyde. It’s a very honorable and noble thing. Cusan. I’m actually jealous of you!”

    I, Hyde, the author of Back Alley Nymph, personally gave a reading and even explained its meaning!

    At this moment, Kushan was not a prisoner or an excommunicator, but a world winner worthy of the envy of emperors and kings!

    I read the book for about an hour as always.

    Sometimes passionately.

    Sometimes insidious or eerie, like a villain.

    Kusan seemed very moved by my special story-telling and eventually shouted.

    “Room 12! There is a hidden twelfth room in this Barakhan! Hyde! Go there! This Barakhan is built symmetrically in the royal palace of the royal capital, Royal Road!”

    Hidden place in Barakhan?

    I thought the structure of this church looked somewhat familiar.

    I never would have thought that it was built in a structure that was perfectly symmetrical to the royal palace in the royal capital.

    “What’s in that 12th room?”

    “I don’t know either! Go quickly! What is certain is that there is a hidden secret, treasure, or something powerful enough to shake the world! Now I’ve told you everything I know!”

    Kusan seems to have really liked the “Village of Back Alley Nymphs.”

    So, I’ll tell you everything, even the things you didn’t ask.

    It was such an amazing thing to move people.

    “Then tomorrow will come too. I’ll give you the book, so make sure you write a book review by tomorrow. I will never give up on your soul, so don’t give up on yourself either.”

    “Geuaaagh!!!!”

    “There really is a door.”

    A geyser located underground in Barakhan.

    There was an enormous door in the gap.

    It was a door made of stone and looked like part of some ruins.

    “It’s really the same as the royal palace in Royal Road.”

    The royal palace of Royal Road.

    There were 11 secret rooms located there.

    Of course, that is only an official story and there were actually 12 rooms.

    I didn’t know what was in this 12th room.

    I wasn’t really interested.

    Because what I wanted to get from the palace was not a secret room, but the “Holy Grail.”

    Could it be that there is a “giant dragon”?

    Could it be that there is a huge amount of saltpeter and gunpowder buried?

    That’s what I guessed, and I actually threatened the Queen and Marquis Sandros with that guess.

    “Why did Gregory make this place identical to the royal palace? Even these doors are made the same.”

    Sze-.

    I held out my hand as hard as I could toward the stone door.

    It was as cold as it looked, and it felt heavy.

    “It is the door to the Holy of Holies. It is also called the door that never opens.”

    It was then.

    When I turned my head, Archbishop Hugo was standing behind me.

    “What is this? The door to the Holy of Holies?”

    Holy of Holies.

    It meant the most holy and holy land among the temples that were once located in Israel.

    It was the place where the stone tablets with the Ten Commandments written on them and the Ark of the Covenant, where God resides, were placed.

    It was a place where only selected high priests could enter, and it was said that if anyone else stepped foot there, they would immediately be punished and die.

    “Are you saying this is the door to the Holy of Holies?”

    “It is said that only true kings can enter. According to legend, the kings of Uniger were able to look beyond the gate. I still don’t know what’s there.”

    Sze-.

    Hugo came over and placed his hand on the door.

    Immediately, I groaned and gave strength, but the door did not budge.

    “In fact, there are doors like this not only in the palace or Barakhan, but also in various parts of the palace. Gregory loved discovering these doors. Is it regret… Maybe I’ve gone crazy… . If I could give you a piece of advice, don’t let His Holiness come near this door.”

    “Lucy?”

    “Lucy’s mother Emma was a great prophet. He had a special talent and was able to guess objects hidden in boxes. He had a nice personality and a very kind heart. Although she was born in a humble way, she was a woman with a noble heart like Mary Magdalene.”

    “… … .”

    “Her talent was clearly God-given. So Arud… He wondered if Emma could find out what was behind this door that no one could open. The result is─.”

    In the story of Emma, a woman who predicted destruction, a war broke out and many people died.

    That would be the result.

    “What lies within is destruction. maybe. It’s the end of the world. Perhaps the moment this door is opened, the world may end and the Savior may return to this earth.”

    Hehehe, Hugo laughed like a joke and left the place.

    When he disappeared, I tried to push towards the door.

    Grumble-.

    The door was slightly pushed aside, saying that no one could open it.

    “Hehehe, it looks like Psyche’s training is paying off.”

    These days, I am strong enough to do 60 push-ups in one minute.

    A very small door gap that I created.

    If you can fit it, it’s about the size of your little finger.

    I raised my head towards the other side and took a peek through the gap.
