Possessed in a Game That Is Full of Mods chapter 85

secret – 4

“That, what… … .”

“It’s the word for it. If I brought this up because there is a way to catch that monster without the sacrifice of the Holy Father, it means what the Heretic Questioner will do.”

The bloody sword and the rapier were visibly drained of strength. I grabbed the blade and carefully pushed it away. Selene obediently followed my actions.

Purple eyes were trembling even more than before. I couldn’t focus properly, as if I had heard the words that I couldn’t believe. The pupils shook restlessly.

The tip of the rapier pointed toward the floor. I also took up my sword. There was nothing good about keeping the weapon pointed.

Selene bowed her head. Suddenly, the divine catalyst in his left hand fell onto the silver carpet. The rapier in his right hand was also held precariously as if it would fall at any moment.

Seeing that reaction, I thought I was halfway successful, but I couldn’t be careless. I lowered my knife, but took a few cautious steps back, ready to repel the attack at any moment.

Selene, who lowered her head, stood in place for a long time with a dazed look. I waited patiently for recovery.

Then, all of a sudden, my mouth opened.

“… … lie.”

The head was lifted. The confusion that filled me just a moment ago had completely disappeared from the two eyes that were looking at me.

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

Selene ran towards me. At the suddenly changed atmosphere, I hurriedly deflected the rapier with my bloody sword.

It was fortunate that the chaos had completely disappeared, and that he did not use any divine power and attacked only with swordsmanship.

“You said you could handle it without sacrifice? Did the pope say you don’t have to sacrifice? Without knowing why the Pope made such a decision! How dare you say the word sacrifice!”

Selene recklessly tried to close the distance, so I had to step back in order to deflect the attack straight away. If it’s an ultra-close combat where you can’t even use a deflection properly, my side is much more at a disadvantage.

Fu-wook! The rapier was stuck in the spot where I rolled to the left and exited. The tip of the sword dug into the wall all the way to the crossguard without the slightest resistance.

The sword was drawn straight away. There were no cracks or scratches in the marble except for a small hole made by the rapier. It was a terribly sharp sword.

The neck turned slowly. The anger seemed to have subsided a little, but the hatred remained. Selene, who straightened her posture, spoke in a bloody voice.

“How did you find out about the existence of the monster?”

‘… … this.’

As soon as I heard that, I knew I had made a mistake.

Although it was possible to draw the conclusion that someone had to be sacrificed from what happened in the Cathedral of the Sun, it was never possible to find out that the reason for the sacrifice was because of the monster underground.

Both used vague terms like futility or unnecessary hope, for they didn’t mention anything about monsters.

“Was that a lie too? Was it also a lie to say that you were noticed because of the cathedral? Was everything you confided in me just a deception to blind me from the truth?”

But I was too proud to say that there was a way to catch the monster. For a person like Selene, it wouldn’t be strange at all if he immediately recognized the contradiction in my words.

“I am now asking if that was the case.”

Just like now.

“Answer me! right now!”

Selene’s expression was almost in a fit of evil. It was clear that he had noticed that the premise of my words was wrong.

In fact, if you look at the truth or not, it was correct that I lied, so I had no answer when questioned about it. I didn’t want to deny that.

However, since it was impossible to raise my voice at the same time, I tried to change the topic of conversation while remaining as calm as possible.

“That’s not what’s important now. The important thing is that there is a way.”

“Did you say there is a way? Did the Pope of the Moon say there was a way to not have to sacrifice? It’s not even funny. Why should I give faith to the words of a human who whispered lies from the beginning?”

The rapier’s blade pointed at me again. When I dodged, the rapier pierced the long marble chair with a loud sound.

Selene gritted her teeth and shouted as she roughly drew her sword.

“Did you think we wouldn’t try anything? Did you think that you would accept your fate and burn yourself quietly to burn one life? Did you really think so?”

“Of course not. I know you guys have tried so many things.”

“What do you say you know?”

“At first, the Sun Pope tried to subdue the monster alone.”

Hearing those words, Selene stopped moving. I continued talking without stopping.

“Next, the Holy Fathers tried to subdue the monster together, then you joined forces, and then, instead of sacrificing their lives, they tried to defeat the monster by handing over only their holy power.”

The tip of the rapier was pointed at my uvula, but it was trembling like crazy enough to be evident even at first glance.

“I know everyone.”

The ‘attempts’ I mentioned were all directly mentioned by the Pope in the game. So it must have been the same here.

“I tried to twist fate in many other ways, but all of them would have failed. Therefore, even the Pope of the Moon believes that fate can never be changed, and intends to sacrifice himself according to the contents of the revelation. Isn’t it?”

“… … .”

Selene seemed to be completely exhausted this time, her face dyed blue, and she powerlessly dropped her rapier.

Like the existence of the monster itself, the fact that in addition to the Heretic Judge and the Heretic Questioner, the Popes of the Holy Land directly stepped forward to subdue the monster was also a top secret of the top secret.

Of course, the results were all failures. They couldn’t even enter the Bosrum, and even the Holy Barrier that the Popes exerted with all their might could only prevent the corruption caused by the Abyss.

Although it was a failed subjugation, all four people who were involved in the subjugation had personalities that would never betray their oaths and beliefs. And only four people participated in the subjugation.

In other words, no one except for the four should have known that the popes had joined forces to subdue the monsters underground.

I had to.

“how… … How to… … .”

“There is definitely a way to subdue that monster, Heretic Questioner.”

I met eyes with the trembling Jaan.

“Look at this.”

He raised the back of his left hand in front of him.

Purple eyes filled with all sorts of complex emotions looked at the rune tattoo on the back of my hand. In addition to the tattoo symbolizing the vitality-enhancing rune, another tattoo entwined with it.

“This is the key. With this rune obtained from the basement of the Rune Dungeon, it is possible to enter the abyss without any resistance.”

“… … Is that, really?”

“Is there any reason for me to lie even in this situation?”

“Ha, but… … That’s impossible… … .”

“Impossible?”

“The Heretic Inquisitor, I, and even the Holy Fathers are monsters that have failed to subdue. It’s a monster that even our gods can’t touch. How can I do that alone… … .”

“I didn’t know that the Heretic Questioner would say such a thing. You must have seen what I’ve been up to.”

Selene flinched. I smiled lightly and continued.

“Did you think that it was possible that His Majesty the Emperor showed great interest in a new knight from the borders of the Empire, and that the Heretic Questioner had to visit the Empire himself when inviting me to the Holy Kingdom?”

“… … .”

“Did you think that being able to possess divine power without faith was possible?”

“… … .”

“Did you think it was possible for the Seongguk to lightly destroy Rune Dungeon, which had failed in subjugation several times, and return by myself?”

“… … .”

“Did you think it was possible for Priest Lucia, who fell into the dungeon’s basement ten years ago, to return to the sun?”

“… … .”

Selene couldn’t answer anything. I didn’t exaggerate my words or exaggerate things that didn’t exist. I just calmly explained what I had been doing.

Even so, it was full of achievements that were no different from impossible, but I have already proven that it is possible. So, isn’t it like living here and having a conversation?

“I will judge whether it is possible, Heretic Questioner. And now, I’m saying that it’s also possible to subdue that monster alone.”

“… … .”

Selene’s eyes were even more blurry than before. It was a situation where you could blindly believe my words or not at all, so you couldn’t do this or that.

“I fully understand that feeling. You must still be anxious. I will not ask you to believe me right now.”

It is a process of uprooting all the beliefs that have been passed down and overthrowing them from the ground up. I didn’t even expect to make people believe in me with just a few words.

“Instead, I will prove my point.”

“… … How, do you mean?”

Selene barely opened her mouth. I replied with a light smile.

“How to beat that monster. From now on, I will tell you in detail about each method.”

‘Please, find rest in the arms of God.’

Stella rose slowly after praying for several full hours. I was on my knees throughout the prayer, but my legs did not hurt or numb.

Rather, it hurt more. For Lucia, who must have suffered in the abyss for so many years, and the guilt she felt for herself for not protecting Lucia.

On the other hand, gratitude was also firmly seated in a corner of my heart.

‘The person I’m grateful for.’

Obviously, the first meeting was the worst. Stella herself arbitrarily accused a person who had not committed any crime as a heretic.

Considering how the existence of a heretic is treated in the Holy Land, it was tantamount to blaspheming against one’s parents.

Because of that, she had to be judged as a heretic, so Stella couldn’t even imagine how much insult the person in question must have felt. Even with ten mouths, there was nothing to say.

However, he gave Lucia a rest as if nothing had happened. He also gave Stella a chance to say goodbye. It was something Stella hadn’t done in decades.

It was impossible to even figure out how to repay this favor.

‘… … Anything you want.’

Stella made a firm resolution inwardly, and turned her body toward Lucia’s divine catalyst, offering her final prayers.

ㅡ Smart.

At just the right time, a knock was heard outside the door.

“What are you calling for?”

“A guest has come to visit.”

“Guest… … What?”

“Yes. A knight named Delta and Selene Inquisitor.”

Upon hearing the name, Stella felt her heart beat slightly faster. He tried to calm his pounding heart and asked in a calm voice.

“What did you say you were visiting for?”

“He said he couldn’t tell us.”

Something that cannot be told to combat nuns and priests. Stella knew instinctively that it was something very important, even if she didn’t know what it was.

“I see. I’ll be leaving soon, so make a seat.”

“Yes.”

the voice is gone Stella hurriedly straightened her clothes and tidied up her hair, and walked lightly toward the place where the two of them were waiting.
