Chapter 245
You may already know that Musk, the publisher’s president, is going to buy the temple. He planned to combine the temple and the publishing house for the safety of himself and his staff, not a joke.
Although he is a person who is crazy about money and even commits tax evasion, he is surprisingly firmly entrenched in the concept. Moreover, considering the times, tax evasion is a crime that can be overlooked if only a reasonable bribe is paid to the upper part.
Musk’s neck would have been blown away sooner if the imperial family made a decision, but he is protected by a terrifying shield called Zeno’s biography. He wants to touch it, but it is difficult to touch.
If Musk had been so blinded by money, he would have lost money right away on Isaac’s side, but Musk wasn’t that far off the beaten track.
Rather, Xenon’s biography invested in a printing house to get more fame, and now he has swept up funds that are no less than aristocrats.
But after being ambushed by demon worshipers, there was one thing I realized: life.
No matter how much money you have, if you lose your life, you are a fool. It was the truth and realization that Musk only learned after overcoming a near-death crisis.
Do you only think about your own well-being? that’s not again Since he founded the publishing house, he’s also worried about his employees who have been through a lot of trouble.
Although the downside is that those worries are going in a slightly different direction. It is much better now than to hire new employees and spend a lot of money to develop them.
Money can solve many things, but not time. As much as there is an uproar when the current Xenon biography comes out, skilled employees are not an option, but a necessity.
So, to buy a temple with money, he came up with a proposal that seemed absurd, but seemed to be okay.
It’s a publishing house that signed a contract with Zeno’s biography, who saved this world from the threat of the devil.
Matthew and other employees looked at Musk like a idiot, but after thinking about it one by one, they all agreed.
But there was one variable that even Musk didn’t expect…
“Did you say no?”
“Unfortunately, it is. We, too, would like to build a temple at the request of Saint Musk, but it seems difficult because other denominations are noticing it.”
That is the existence of a denomination other than the Luminus. Musk’s plan itself was so good that anyone would say it sounded like a fool, but it was a genius.
However, the world is full of various variables. In this world, there are other gods as well as Luminus.
Most humans believe in Luminus, but there are countries that have Mora as their state religion, such as Helium, and Machina and Animers believe in Hirt.
Finally, although Albenheim is now divided into ethnic groups, it believes in all three religions. In reality, this means that it is very difficult.
If Xenon’s biography is released in the Temple of Luminus, there is a 100% chance that other religions will rebel against it. In particular, as it is the story of Zeno who saved the demons, he will rise from the helium.
This part was not Isaac, but Musk’s arbitrary act, so the aftermath that will come back is too great for an individual to handle. No matter how hard it was to protect Minerva from the Empire, even that would be difficult.
It’s not empty words, but it carries the risk that it could escalate into a religious war. I always had to keep the worst in mind when it came to dealing with religion.
Musk couldn’t help but be embarrassed. It is clear that this is a genius idea, but in reality, many problems are intertwined.
Although there are many races that believe in Luminus, the situation is reversed when two other religions come together.
Above all, the Savior now has to raise a reputation that has been slashed by demon worshipers. He might be pointed at because he’s greedy.
For safety, purchasing a temple with capital is the correct answer, but paradoxically, it was very difficult because the fame of Xenon’s life had risen to the sky.
“Then is there no other way?”
As a sure investment for the future, Musk had no intention of giving up on the temple purchase. So he once again asked the pardon of the Archbishop of the Order of Luminus, who was sitting opposite him.
When the archbishop heard his question, he smiled bitterly and shook his head. I wanted to agree with my heart, but this is an issue that could lead to a major conflict between religions.
Still, only one thing. It is not that there is no way at all. It is very unlikely that it will be realized.
The archbishop opened his mouth with a gentle tone, looking at Musk, who looked like a desperate puppy.
“Although it’s almost impossible, there is one.”
“Hey, can you tell me what it is?”
“Again, it’s almost impossible. Not only Luminus, but Mora, and finally, the temple of Hirt.”
“·······”
The archbishop’s advice to purchase the temples of each denomination fairly so that no disputes arise anywhere else.
As soon as Musk heard those words, he barely suppressed what was about to spit in the air. Still, he couldn’t stop the wriggling under his eyes.
The temple is not the name of your dog, and you want to buy all the temples of the three denominations. Did you say something dignified?

Even buying the Temple of Luminus right now does not know how much money it will cost, but Musk had no answer.
It is doubtful whether other denominations would willingly build a temple in the first place. In order to build a temple, a person corresponding to the minimum cardinal level had to build it himself.

Even Luminus is like this, but other denominations are terrified. Even Musk with many connections does not extend to that extent.
“…it just means impossible.”
“Yes. I know the situation of the saints, but it is nothing else but Zeno’s biography… First of all, we can dispatch paladins from the level of our denomination.”
“Uhhh… I see. You must be very busy, but thank you for taking the time.”
In the end, the construction of the Temple of Luminus and the publishing house had to be put on hold temporarily. As the Archbishop said, it is best to be protected by the Paladins.
Musk has since been troubled for some time after the archbishop’s return. He was left alone in his boss’s office, where nothing but silence fell.
How can you ensure the safety of yourself and your friends? Even the cardinals were demon worshipers, and even the paladins are hard to trust.

Even the mercenaries we hired last time were demon worshipers. This is the moment when you realize that things in the world don’t work the way you want them to.
‘I’m going to have to convince Mora and Hirt somehow…’
It’s a problem because it’s so famous, the more I think about it, the more I laugh.
Is Zeno’s biography treated as a Bible or a prophetic book? That has nothing to do with Musk. It’s just a way to make money.
For Musk, Xenon’s biography is not gold, but a goose that breeds diamonds. Even that goose is a situation that the world supports.
“What should I do···”
He looked up at the ceiling without hesitation and was about to ponder over and over again.
smart-
“Sir. That’s Matthew. May I come in?”
Matthew, a faithful secretary and one of the pay thieves, came to visit. Of course, a salary thief is a half-joking statement, and an employee who does his job as well as pays him.
And when Matthew came to visit, something happened. Musk corrected his posture with the heart to solve the problem from now on.
“Come in.”
quiver-
When Musk’s permission was granted, the door to the president’s office opened and Matthew’s figure caught his eye.
I haven’t slept lately, so my eyes are open and dark circles are coming down. Seeing this, Musk’s expression was colored with wonder.
He had a tired face from the beginning, but he looks more tired today. Did something happen?
“What’s wrong with your face? Couldn’t sleep?”
“I don’t even know where the people who put knives in the boss’s belly button are, wouldn’t I be anxious? I’m anxious every day…”
“·······”
I think I know roughly what the situation is. Musk’s face hardened in an instant.
As Matthew said, right away, he was attacked by demon worshipers, and there is no law that says that he is the one around him. The same goes for Matthew and other employees.
In the meantime, if an employee leaves because of anxiety, it will inevitably affect sales. If even an accountant were to leave… just imagining it would be terrifying.
Musk questioned Matthew, assuming he was going to suffer serious bleeding.
“By the way, what did you come here for this time?”
“Nothing else, the 19th volume of Zeno’s biography has arrived.”
“What? Already?”
Musk’s eyes widened at the news Matthew delivered. 18 manuscripts arrived just a week ago, and they have already arrived.
What the hell kind of magic did he do to come out already? In fact, even publishing one book a month is a terrifying speed of work.
If I was an average writer, I would have published about one book every two months. Of course, as Xenon’s biography is easy to read, writing it will also be relatively easy.
However, it does not change that the speed of work does not make sense. Musk handed the manuscript to Matthew with a bewildered expression.
sizzle-
When I opened the envelope and looked inside, I saw a thick manuscript paper. Even stationery that overlaps with manuscript paper.
Before reading the manuscript, Musk first began to read the letter. If you look at the signature elegant cursive and the signature written in ‘Hangeul’, it is definitely Zenon (Isaac).
[hello. Mr Musk. This is Xenon. I think you must have been very surprised that I sent the manuscript in less than a fortnight. The writing speed has greatly improved thanks to the gift I received from the demon with whom I was usually associated.]
The content of the letter is roughly as follows: I received a gift from a demon with whom I had a relationship from the beginning, and thanks to that gift, my writing speed greatly increased.
Originally, a new book was published once or twice a month, but it may be possible to send a manuscript within a week or ten days.
I don’t know what the gift is, but it was enough to make Musk want to dance.
That doesn’t mean there aren’t any side effects. As you know, as time goes by, the demand for Xenon’s biography is increasing.
The printing house was also fully operational and printing, but the supply was in short supply. Moreover, as the number of criminal acts such as sajaegi is gradually increasing, it is a matter of concern in many ways.
‘What the hell kind of gift?’
Musk put the letter down for a moment and checked the manuscript first. At first, it was written only in Isaac’s elegant handwriting, so I couldn’t find any difference.
However, by turning half of the manuscript, it became clear what the difference was. Like a book printed in a printing house, each letter is honest, as if it was made with type rather than handwritten.
It seemed that the item that the demons gave as a gift had a deep connection with the type. If I had read the manuscript first, I would have almost misunderstood that I had signed a contract with another publisher.
[···I am thinking of writing a side story to repay you. The story behind the story of Jin and Lily is loved by many readers. As it is a side story for demons, I will probably write it mainly for Jin.]
The side story of Jin and Lily following the side story of Kair. I can already hear the sound of money piling up in heaps.
Through the story of Kair, the tragedy caused by the difference in lifespan was shown, but maybe Jin and Lily are a little different. In the main story, Jin and Lily didn’t just confess, because they were like lovers.
The president hastily finished the calculation in his head. This sells great. I’m sure you’ll be particularly excited about Helium.
[If possible, I would like the Gaiden to be sold in Helium first. It’s my little gift to them.]
There are even things like this. You can hear the cries of demons who think of Zeno’s life as a blessing from God.
[Once again, I want to thank the demons who gave me a present. Of course, I won’t tell you who the demons are, but I’d like to express my gratitude through a letter. Oh, and it doesn’t matter if Musk wants it to be released in a suitable period. I read the newspapers and there was news that the supply could not keep up with the demand. You can do whatever Musk is comfortable with.]
“Kya…”
How can you be so kind? Musk exclaimed as soon as he saw the cool scratching of the tickled area.
But I don’t plan on paying it every month. Until a while ago, I was worried that supply could not keep up with demand.
Let’s purchase not only Luminus, but also Mora and Hirt’s temples. It’s not really impossible if a new book is released every fortnight or ten days.
After reading the letter, Musk put it down gently and looked at Matthew. Matthew is rubbing his eyes to see if he is still suffering from his fatigue.
“Good job. Matthew. If you’re tired, you can go to work now.”
“Thank you. Oh, by the way, did you hear that rumor?”
“What rumors?”
“I’m not sure because I passed it over, but there’s a Michelle estate, right?”
“Of course you know.”
You wouldn’t know that Xenon lives there. In addition, an exhibition will be held.
Matthew opened his mouth in a tired voice.
“It is said that Luminus-sama’s temple will be built there. I heard that Cardinal Kate brought the manpower himself.”
“Um? What does that mean?”
“I don’t know either. It’s the place where Zenon was born, so I’m going to make it a holy place or something.
“Hmm.”
Musk listened to him and fell into his thoughts. There are no unfounded rumors in this world. That rumor is probably true in all probability.
I’ve never met Cardinal Kate in person, but she said that her piety was close to madness. Of course, this is also a rumor.
Making Zeno’s birthplace a holy place is also sufficient for a ‘justice’. It brought to light the existence of a demon worshiper that was corrosive to the world, and even brought wrath upon the corrupt cardinal.
‘···Wait a minute.’
Will the demons, that is, the followers of Mora, be still looking at it?
The birthplace of Zeno, who treats Zeno’s life as a relic and thinks he saved them?
Religion is sometimes something that transcends races. A unique rivalry that can’t be lost to that bastard.
Rumors are circulating that the Luminus Church will spend a lot of money to build a temple in the Michelle estate, but the Mora Church has no law against it.
‘···This is it!’
In an instant, a powerful spark flashed through Musk’s mind. In this part, his brain, which can turn his head uselessly, was expressed.
This also requires taking risks in many ways and consulting with Zeno, but the probability is higher than what the Archbishop mentioned.
Musk smirked after thinking about it, and asked Matthew.
“Look, Matthew.”
“Why are you calling me?”
“Please, find out how many of your employees have families. Specifically, those who are not independent or have families.”
“Why?”
Musk immediately answered Matthew’s question.
“We may have to move companies.”
“…?”
What else is this kid up to? A strong suspicion settled in Matthew’s eyes.
*****
A few days have passed since then.
[Helium side. We will also build a temple of Mora in the Michelle estate.]
“…?”
Isaac was eating bread in the dormitory when he heard news that made his eyes suspicious.
Okay unlimited stamina I mean Divine power!!!! Hahahahahaha
