A sign of popularity outside the door attracts attention.

I quickly got dressed and opened the door slightly.

The innkeeper, nervous at the smell of thick bodily fluids, glances up at me.

It looked like he was embarrassed.

“···Didn’t I ask you not to come back for a week?”

“Well, I didn’t want to do that either, but the prophet came!”

The innkeeper glanced inside while watching me.

I blocked my vision a little more thoroughly with my body.

‘The prophet has come.’

I glared straight at the arrogant innkeeper.

He seemed to have finally realized that there was something he shouldn’t see.

“I’ll be down soon.”

I closed the door and looked at the ladies who were relaxing from their travels.

“Now it’s time to go to work.”

“Haa···.”

Isabel sighed and sat down.

You can’t help but get angry when a customer comes during your turn.

“I’ll do it first next time.”

“···Yes.”

I did it more than a hundred times over two days and nights.

Of course, I did it more than 10 times with everyone.

‘But I’m not tired.’

What should I do when I start newlyweds?

It was a fun and scary worry.

We quickly got dressed.

If a prophet came to visit me, there would be only one reason.

‘Have you decided to cooperate?’

“Don’t leave even a strand of hair for the innkeeper. Because it’s all mine.”

“Don’t be damned, just get ready to go.”

Shir laughs arrogantly as if he is disgusted.

The rest was similar.

Seth and Edeline use magic to purify the thick smell of bodily fluids and immediately wash away dried bodily fluids.

The dark, damp cave that had been filled with the lust of men and women quickly returned to a neat inn room.

When I went down the stairs, I saw a large figure occupying a corner of the inn.

The prophet with one swollen eye was drinking ‘morel mushroom rotten wood wine.’

Next to him, a small nymph who appeared to be his granddaughter was drinking stew.

“It’s been a while.”

“It’s been a while?”

If you ask me that well, no.

Because I didn’t sleep, it felt like I hadn’t seen him in four days.

“Are your eyes okay?”

“Snow? Does it look like that?”

Of course, that wasn’t the case at all.

The bruise was still spreading, and my cornea had burst.

Things like the eyes and brain have delicate immune systems that are different from the rest of the body.

But the cornea burst?

It’s similar to having a split skull.

It was obvious that if I left it like that, I would go blind.

‘The other eye will soon fail as well.’

“Do you have a fever?”

“I have a headache. I also have a fever.”

“This is because the facial nerve bundles are bundled together. It doesn’t really hurt.”

“···You speak as if you lost your eyes.”

It was a blunt voice.

‘I’m not an outsider.’

Did I just lose my eyes?

My heart has been pulled out several times and a gun has been shot in my face.

“We can fix it… but let’s fix it after putting a stamp on it.”

Because it’s not my benefit, it’s someone else’s benefit.

I looked up to the still quiet upstairs.

A snake’s sexual activity lasts for several days at most.

Callisto and Ferraku were still having a happy time.

‘Now that I think about it, I think I might like it.’

It has four hands, resembles a reptile, and has two genitals.

I also thought about asking Shir for a favor.

However, I had to forget about it when Isabelle looked at me like she was scolding me.

“Are you sane to steal a woman you own in front of her owner?”

I sat down across from him and raised my hand.

“Here, please give me the same thing this person is eating.”

“It’s my fault.”

“You just have to do better next time. So?”

The Prophet was looking at me with his single eye.

“···Has no one really brainwashed anyone?”

His eyes were on my ladies.

‘I was just curious about that.’

I was well-versed in Dantalian’s power from the moment I took the curse of Venus into my body.

However, although I have been hypnotized, I have never been brainwashed.

“If I had been brainwashed, I would have arrived here 20 years ago.”

“Ha…! That’s right!”

What was funny? The Prophet looked at me with a dull smile.

“I will follow your wishes. However, if their safety and human rights are guaranteed.”

“We will try, but there are no guarantees.”

“There is no guarantee…?”

It may sound like pouring cold water on me, but a prophet can read my emotions.

“What does that mean?”

“As you know, human rights come from money.”

It was a natural thing.

Human rights without money are just a facade.

They need ‘gold’ to use for settlement.

“It looks like there is a crack in the external magic mirror.”

“···That’s true, but mining technology is poor so there aren’t many.”

“But my wives can do it.”

I looked at Seth and Edeline.

The two ladies silently agreed with my opinion.

“These are the people you have tamed.”

“We will take care of the gold mined in Inoemagyeong, so you are responsible for it until the end.”

“Once you enter Pangea, from then on it is up to you.”

I glanced at the prophet.

The Prophet had a very calm expression.

“···Thank you.”

I even have to be thankful.

“Logging, ship building, mining, processing… We will assist you extensively in all aspects.”

“Are you expecting something different in return? ···Like the fruit of a prophet?”

I glanced at the prophet.

He still couldn’t believe I was giving him help for free.

Despite reading my emotions.

I felt like I had a really rough life.

“Why do you think you have the power to see the future?”

“···I don’t know.”

“I think this way. To destroy the predicted future.”

“Destroy the future?”

The Prophet looked at me with a puzzled expression.

I would not have been able to understand it without prior knowledge.

“The agent of Ceres said, If you don’t know the future, you can’t change it.”

“They say that only those who know the future can change the future.”

“In other words, predict the future and prevent disasters.”

That’s what I realized after meeting Prometheus.

If I weren’t from Earth, I wouldn’t have been able to imagine it.

‘Because the Earth is humanistic.’

But Pangea is theocratic.

Everyone thought of Prometheus as a servant who could predict the future.

“Human beings are for humans, but will humans be happy if we expose the future?”

“···No.”

“Yes. The interpretation was wrong in the first place.”

Let us prevent future disasters and ensure widespread happiness.

So that Ain can accept the future a little more challengingly.

Human beings are definitely like that.

I looked at a nymph who looked like the prophet’s granddaughter.

“I think nymphs should eat the fruit of prophets.”

“Yes?!”

The nymph opens her eyes wide.

It was quite a surprised look.

The prophet watches over such days secretly.

“···Why?”

“Because he is a person who knows the future and understands your struggle to change the future.”

Even raising someone else’s kidnapped child.

I took a sip of my drink.

“Most people were shocked when I distorted the predicted future. Even the servants came and said shit.”

The priest who helped me paid the price five years later.

Going against the future is similar to throwing a bouncy ball against a wall and it coming back.

‘There is no way the chosen race wouldn’t know that.’

I looked at the nymph.

“There are few people like that.”

“Namuju has arrived!”

Rotten wooden wine is placed on the table.

Contrary to its name, it was a very fragrant liquor.

“If there were no prophetic fruit in the first place, nymphs would inevitably become extinct one day.”

“Then what about you?”

‘me?’

I glanced at the prophet.

It was an expression of complete incomprehension.

“What are you helping us for?”

Why do I help them?

After thinking about it, I looked at my wives.

I am also an ordinary person.

I just live for my people.

“I want to remain a proud father to my family, my people, and my future children.”

Because I have lived a very shameful and dishonest life.

‘The trigger was Rohan.’

I don’t know how awkward my first meeting with Rohan was.

But now I know.

It’s because I wasn’t a proud person.

I started to think that I no longer wanted to kill anyone.

Perhaps Lohan changed all of this.

‘It was a successful pregnancy attack.’

Edeline, who received my smile, also smiled back.

This wasn’t the only reason.

“And… there was also a request from my friend. Because we are quite close friends.”

“Who on earth is that friend? How on earth do you know about the external magic world?”

“Just, he’s my friend. I can’t reveal who it is.”

A weak-hearted and humane god.

I could understand why the Grand Duke Widow fell in love with Dantalian.

“Now, will you accept my offer?”

The Prophet nodded willingly to my question.

“I guess so.”

* * * * * * *

Gold ore is obtained by blasting gold veins with dynamite.

However, there was only a pickaxe in the human world.

Shir, who appeared like a comet in such a place, was no different from human dynamite.

Quad deuk!

─Because I split the gold vein like tofu with a blood sword.

Edelin and Seth constantly checked for falling rocks or collapses.

Moreover, Anne defies gravity.

Anne carried dozens of tons of rock outside, and Edeline and Seth extracted the gold.

In addition, he even used magic to pinpoint the location of the gold vein.

Thanks to his incredible ability, he was able to extract tons of gold per day.

─Just four days.

The precious gold vein has been depleted.

The gold collected in that way was as much as 3 tons.

“Anything more than this is an abuse of power.”

Seth spoke stiffly, as if drawing a line.

If she were, that would be it.

‘I wasn’t interested in the first place.’

“Wow, I think I can settle down at this level.”

Edeline and Seth melted all the gold and made it into a large gold bar.

Although it is obviously an enormous weight, the shipyard director lifts it lightly.

“I never thought I would see gold like this.”

Even though there was 3 tons of gold, it was enough to fit the shipbuilder’s fist.

“···I don’t know if this is okay.”

“It’s okay. Because it’s not ours.”

Because it is not for self-interest.

Fera Cu and Callisto are doing their own thing.

They started saving animals and plants.

Thanks to that, it was so convenient because it required less work.

Soon, numerous demi-humans stormed into El Costera.

This was because the prophet had gathered all the demi-humans in the In-Oe-Ema Sutra.

So one day later.

The prophet was scheduled to begin his speech in the square where most of the demons of the human world had gathered.

It was also an event where everyone had to show their faces to solidify their position as helpers of the prophet.

Exciting! Exciting!

But I feel my heart palpitations.

As a soldier of convenience, I have crossed the firing line many times and am not nervous about this.

But today, my heart was pounding.

─As if it were unpleasant.

“···Are you okay?”

“Yes. I guess it’s because I’m nervous. I’ll be out soon.”

I looked around at Edeline and drank some water.

Then, I saw the eyes peeking out from the stigma.

Only then did I realize that this discomfort was being transmitted through stigma.

The mood of the hell that lived in the outer demon world worsened.

‘Why is that?’

[Is this the only reason we have suffered?]

He has been quiet for the past few days, and he seems to have understood me.

‘I do not know. There may be other reasons.’

[Pangaea, the outer magic world… It’s the same everywhere. The servant played with us.]

I can’t help but be angry.

The life of the soul is eternal.

But the soul lives only once.

[Why were we born and had to suffer?]

[Why did they create us deformed and make us feel this pain?]

[It wouldn’t have been like this if I had given him a comfortable death.]

Hell, revealed above the stigma, looks at me.

I know those eyes.

What happened to those people with cold anger?

Hot anger is extinguished by pouring water on it.

But cold anger is different.

Even if you pour water on it, it won’t go out.

That’s what ‘hatred’ was.

[Let me know.]

‘I get angrier when I know.’

Anger is explainable.

But if you hate it, you can’t understand it.

Just as it’s inevitable that you’ll like it, it’s also inevitable that you’ll hate it.

‘I have to live with it.’

[Then kill the servant.]

‘If it’s someone worth killing, yes.’

If not, don’t kill it.

[I’m sure he’s the one to kill.]

Survivors—I no longer had time to listen to the bias of the dead.

I have to get up now.

‘It’s time to work for your future generations. ‘Please respect yourself for just a moment.’

[I will try my best.]

I got up and headed towards the ladies waiting outside the door.

“I’m sorry. You waited, right?”

“No. Please go quickly.”

Everyone takes steps.

But the shipyard director was looking at me silently.

“Are you okay?”

“What is it?”

“‘That’.”

─That.

It was clear he was talking about hell.

Because the shipyard manager sees hell.

“Yes. It doesn’t matter.”

“I don’t know what it is, but it’s dangerous.”

“Yes?”

I glanced at Lexi.

Before I knew it, she was looking at me, listening intently.

The shipyard director didn’t seem to notice.

“The eyes looking at you were unusual.”

“For example?”

“I’ve seen a lot of things like that. Usually my father did that.”

‘The eyes of an ogre.’

It was a very interesting story.

The shipyard director spoke with very serious eyes.

“It was the gaze of a patient hunter.”

“Your father saw it that way?”

“Yes.”

Hunting is basically the same as fishing.

─Waiting and temptation.

In that respect, the meaning of the shipyard director’s words was simple.

‘They could forcibly occupy my body.’

Pretending to be weak. Pretend to wait.

To eat me.

[Do you believe what he says?]

‘That’s right.’

The corners of his mouth rose into a smirk.

You can’t keep still so you’re giving out clues.

They were so caught up in the middle of the day that they did not understand me clearly and understood me in a biased way.

I can understand.

But I had no intention of forgiving.

─Because that is not a ‘human’.

He’s looking at me.

I also looked at him.

How much did we share looks like that?

The guy eventually returned to the stigma.

The unpleasant heart palpitations subsided like snow melting.

“Ugh! It’s disgusting that you look at me like that. But it will be okay.”

“Wouldn’t it be dangerous?”

I had listening ears so I had to joke around.

“If I’m in danger, my wives won’t leave me alone.”
