***

Death was a swirling typhoon, a high tempest on the night sea.

The extremities of the knights and soldiers flew into the sky at the violent gesture that came with the intense heat.

The knights, who were said to be the best in the church, lost their lives before they could react.

As they approached with their weapons firmly held, they became one with their armor and were destroyed by the huge hot wind created by a single gesture.

Death had the face of an exotic woman.

She slowly and unconventionally headed towards Solarizia.

Ashes and moans of pain rose wherever she walked.

What followed death was rest.

“Ugh… ah….”

A woman with short black hair approached the poor souls who could not die even though they were overcome by high fever.

“Sal, Ryeo….”

The fallen knight stretches out his hand, not knowing whether the person in front of him is friend or enemy.

” Mr. Kkumul.”

As soon as the woman finished speaking, her shadow split into several branches and began to sweep through the chaotic church.

Each stem stretched towards the fallen, and soon the shadows opened and sharp teeth appeared.

“Kwaaagh!!!!”

Eaten alive, they screamed as they slowly sank into the shadows.

The shadow that swallowed them with its armor trembled several times and then gathered at Imina’s feet again.

The father figure from earlier had gone somewhere, and there was silence.

All that remained in the space were burnt, melted pillars and a floor stained with soot.

“I have to take it off…”

Lee Mi-na muttered as she looked at the back of the Heavenly Demon moving away.

Through analysis at the execution table, the next dimension In-ho moved to has also been found out. Now, it would have been possible to leave the Heavenly Demon here and move to another dimension.

“What are you doing?”

As she thought for a moment, the Heavenly Demon’s dry question sounded in her ears.

“!!!”

When Lee Mi-na looked to the side in surprise, she saw Namgung So-yu standing next to her, looking at her.

“Follow me. I have to burn all the kites here and find all the scattered traces of my disciples.”

Then it jumps up and moves forward.

“…What a monster. That woman.”

Imina said as if she was tired of seeing a woman who seemed more of a monster than herself, absorbing people through procrastination.

The shadow at her feet vibrated, strongly agreeing.

***

“You evil devils!! In the name of light… ahhh!!”

Before he could even finish his sentence, the Pope’s arms flew into the sky.

The fat body fell to the floor like a leaf, and the Pope let out a bizarre scream, groping his empty left shoulder.

“Seeing you sitting at the head of the table, you are the leader.”

Namgung Soyu stared at the high, ornate chair on which the Pope was sitting.

The Pope was in no condition to answer questions calmly.

He was busy crawling on the floor, covering it with blood.

“Mr. Kkumul, don’t eat that person.”

Lee Mi-na said that because she knew that he was the culprit of all this.

Is this pain I’ve felt for the first time in my life? The Pope died struggling on the cold floor.

The end of his life as he led the religious order and satisfied his own self-interest was somewhat boring.

“You were a softer person than I thought. To die like this.”

Namgung Soyou was truly sorry for not being able to inflict more pain.

She walked back to where she came from. The hall rang with her footsteps on the marble.

“The work here is now over… Where is the rest?”

She spoke calmly, as if going out to drink.

“I’ll track it down. But… if the trace is too weak, it may take a long time to find it…”

“That is a matter for me to decide. I don’t know what it is like in your world, but where I live, there is no punishment more cruel than mutilation.”

It’s the same for us too. Imina thought to herself.

“If there is a trace that I can hold in my hand, I will collect even the dust.”

As her bright red eyes turned towards her, Imina cleared her throat slightly.

Imina closed her eyes and began to sense the location of another trace.

Inho’s remaining traces were very faint, unlike those felt on the execution platform.

and

“……?”

As Lee Mi-na furrowed her eyebrows and tilted her head, Namgung So-yu, who was looking at her, also tilted his head.

“Is there a problem?”

“Uh… um… um?”

“Tell me. What’s going on?”

As various emotions appeared on Lee Mi-na’s face, which always had a calm expression, Namgoong Soyu became calm.

“Trace….”

“Trace?”

“I’m coming here.”

– Boom!

As Imina finished speaking, the sound of something huge falling over was heard.

The vibration and noise made the two women head outside.

The huge stairs leading up to Solar Lucia.

At the bottom of the stairs, someone dressed as a nun was looking up.

“That’s strange. Was there anyone still alive?”

The nun at the bottom of the stairs slowly began to come up here.

As the chaste nun took each step of the stairs, the sound of metal clashing could be heard.

A huge greatsword was held in one hand of the nun.

Eventually, when they reached a distance where they could recognize each other’s faces, the nun stopped.

The nuns had impressive eye colors of different colors.

“Are you at peace?”

It was a greeting that did not suit the situation of the father-in-law church.

“Okay. Who are you?”

Even as he accepted the greeting, Namgung Soyu asked coldly.

“My name is Maria Roen. I am a tiny believer who carries out the will of the Son. Did you, by any chance, create this situation?”

“Then?”

“It is right for those who committed evil deeds to scream in pain, but their judgment was entrusted to me by the Holy Son.”

“So?”

“To arbitrarily lay hands on sinners designated by the Holy Spirit…is a very serious sin of blasphemy.”

Maria grinned and raised the great sword to her shoulder. The heavy thing split the space and made a whooshing sound.

“Ha!”

Namgung Soyu laughed at the clearly felt hostility.

How dare you embrace life for me?

Namgung Soyu clenched his fist with the intention of striking the arrogant woman.

Just as I was about to raise my fist, I heard Imina’s voice from behind.

“I’m a woman.”

Namgung Soyu and Maria’s gaze turned to Lee Mi-na.

“Those eyes… are Inho’s eyes.”

Imina pointed to Maria’s blue eyes.

“Oh my, sister. Do you know the saint?”

Maria smiled brightly at Imina. It was a different smile from when he saw Namgung Soyu, a smile he had towards a comrade.

“Wait.”

Just as Maria was about to say more to Lee Mi-na, Namgung So-yu interrupted her.

The friendly conversation ended before it even started, leaving Maria with a displeased expression.

“Are those eyes Inho’s eyes?”

“Yes, it is a trace of the saint.”

Maria answered with an ecstatic expression. It seemed like he was very happy to see Inho’s mark on his body.

“Really?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Namgung Soyu’s body became blurred.

Kang!

Before we knew it, Namgung Soyu rushed down the stairs and reached out to Maria’s eyes, and Maria raised her sword to block it.

“What are you doing?”

As they confronted each other over the sword, Maria spoke in a cold voice.

“Those eyes. Didn’t you say it was my disciple’s? As a teacher, I have to take it with me.”

“Disciple?”

“Kang In-ho is my student. I took in and raised this girl who I knew nothing about. So that guy is mine. Even a strand of hair belongs to me. Even more so, what about the eyes?”

The bayonet swung back and forth to maintain the line.

“That’s blasphemous. You claim to be the saint’s teacher, and you want to take with you the traces of the saint that remain with me. It is blasphemy.”

“I decide that.”

Namgung Soyu showed a twisted smile as he tried to push away the sword that could not be pushed away.

Maria’s expression turned cold at that laugh.

“You. You are a sinner.”

With that declaration, Maria’s sword was thrust forward like a thunderbolt.

bang!

Part of the stairs collapsed.

“Power is a business.”

How long has it been since you encountered someone whose strength was superior to yours? Namgung Soyu was impressed.

“But, that’s all.”

Before she knew it, her fist hit Maria’s chin, and the area under Maria’s chin disappeared.

Maria staggered and fell to her knees due to the shock of her jaw being blown off.

“How nice it would have been if he had just given me his eyes like that.”

It was when Namgung Soyu tried to reach out to her again.

She felt something rushing from below and pulled back.

Hung!

Before she knew it, the great sword had cut the spot where she was from bottom to top.

“!!!”

Namgung Soyu’s eyes widened.

Her face, which had obviously been blown off with her chin, had returned to its original state without any residual scars.

“Ah… Saint. This is what I meant.”

“What….”

Namgung Soyu frowned at the other person who was not looking at him but at the sky.

“The sinner I was to punish was not the church, but this sinner. All right. This is Maria Roen. Following the will of the Holy Son, I will punish sinners.”

“Punishment? This heavenly horse? You’re cocky.”

Looking at Maria raising her sword with an ecstatic face, Namgung Soyu said,

“Sinner, from now on I will make you repent.”

Maria just smiled.

Lee Mi-na, who was watching the confrontation between the two women from a distance, spoke to her shadow.

“Mr. Kkumul, please take out the popcorn.”

“Caramel flavor.”
