Chapter 378: Fact Always Wins. (4)

"Are there any other soldiers agitated?"

"There... are not, Karina-nim."

'That's a lie.'

"How about on the other side? Check it."

"There aren't any, too. Of course, it is difficult to say that the atmosphere is the same as usual, but the spread of useless rumors is being prevented as much as possible... Since we are thorough not only in related education, but also in the speed of admission, there will be no morale affected."

'That's impossible.'

I thought that this was definitely a lie. The Honorary Cardinal shouted, all whilst being surrounded by brilliant light. And it was just after I watched the incident in Laios.

There was no way that soldiers who could not shake off the fear of war would not be anxious to see that.

'It wasn't invented.'

It was a great light that I had seen through the Goddess' Mirror, a divine light that was incomparable even to that time. I hadn't even been on the continent for a long time, but this was the first time I had ever seen that level of divine power. I thought it might be a simple trick, but...

I even thought that he might have really been chosen by God. There was no need to mention that I couldn't sleep properly after witnessing that scene.

If Lee Kiyoung or someone related to him really had one hand in the demon's summoning, as the Republic was promoting, no matter how I were to think about it, I could not understand this divine power.

Of course, not all clergies were good.

However, most clergymen who had reached the stage where he had had a strong faith.

They served God, prayed for those in need, and lived only for God. The divine power possessed by the Honorary Cardinal exceeded the saints of each denomination. It was safe to say that it was equivalent to the transcendental beings who had left their names in history.

In other words, if he really had anything to do with the demon...

'It is impossible to obtain the same divine power as now.'

This was only a conviction, not speculation. I didn't know in detail exactly with what mechanism the divine power worked, but I was aware that the demon summoner or those involved in black magic could not possibly get that kind of divine power.

'You must never trust him, Yev Karina. Absolutely.'

The words of military commander Jin Qing suddenly came to mind. However...

'If he'd rather be honest...'

If Jin Qing had any purpose, I would have endured and accepted it. I would have nodded if he had summoned a fearful being for the benefit of the Republic. If he were honest...

'What can I do with questioning? He wouldn't do that.'

Anxiety in the command and control room led to anxiety for the entire army. I began to anxiously bite my lips. It was then that the voice came from outside.

"Yev Karina-nim. Senior Bishop Priest wants to see..."

'Damn.'

If I were to think about it, it was the expected procedure.

"Tell him to come in."

"Yes. I will tell him as it is."

Shortly after some time had passed, I could see an old man with gray hair. He may appear to be a tacky old man at first glance, but no one would consider the one in front of me to be an old man with nothing to do.
