22 – God’s Earthly Agent
Skills in the game Blue Revolution were basically activated by pressing a shortcut key, and this has been done similarly since entering this world.
Skills that are activated naturally, just like moving your hands and feet, if you show your will to execute them in your head.
It was already confirmed that not only the absolute magic defense that was used before, but also basic recovery and defense as a paladin proceeded in a similar way.
But,
Right now at this moment.
Looking at the description of this hidden skill that I got for the first time after entering this world,
At the same time, recognizing the knowledge about this skill that began to flow into my head so naturally, as if a forgotten memory was awakening.
I couldn’t help but be caught in a complicated mood in many ways.
＜Hidden Skill – God’s Ground Agent＞
[God wants to call you, who have reached the highest level as a paladin, as his messenger.
This generation full of chaos and sin.
As a high-ranking paladin, it is your duty to lead people on the right path.
As a beginning, now show people the majesty of God as His representative.
Call on the holy name of the Lord and He will give you strength.
-Skill can be used with Praise to God.
-Consumes 30% of divine power.
-300% increase in efficiency of all divine skills for 30 minutes.
– Cooldown 7 hours]
As befits the grandiose name of God’s agent, it is a skill that has an enormous effect that can be said to be unconventional.
But,
Apart from this great efficiency, I realized that this skill is not an easy one to use with the given knowledge.
‘Praise to God… Even though I’m a paladin, I have to do that in the middle of the battlefield?…’
Praise to God that can be considered simple if you look at the phrase.
However, the reality was that they had to raise their voices and pray to God, just like evangelists or pastors chattering on the streets they saw in the original world.
No matter how much this world is more religious than the modern world,
From my point of view, possessed in modern times, this was no different from telling me to do a shameful every time I use a set of skills.
I don’t know if I’d rather go to church…
Having lived my life as an atheist, I could say that praising God aloud to me who had never even prayed was truly embarrassing.
There is one more problem that follows.
That was the name of the grandiose skill called ＜God’s Ground Agent＞.
In addition, judging from the description of the skill, which is full of rice cakes, such as to shine the glory of God or lead people,
It was the fact that I had a strong feeling that it would not end like this after giving only one skill.
‘I really… Did this guy named God have a sprained eye? What’s the point of appointing me as a deputy simply because I’ve reached max level as a paladin? If you’re going to do something like this, shouldn’t you rather do it to someone like the pope or the great saint in Rome, across the sea?’
As an atheist, I couldn’t help but wonder if there was some kind of conspiracy, rather than a religious feeling, when I suddenly heard stories that seemed to come out of the Bible.
But,
Apart from this unpleasant feeling, I had no intention of escaping from the big flow that the quest was guiding me to right now.
From a realistic point of view, there were no limits to doubt,
If this is seen as an extension of the flow in the game, there was nothing particularly problematic.
It was true that among the phrases that came out while playing the game with the paladin job in the first place, even if not this grandiose, words mentioning faith came out from time to time.
As long as he originally had such a character and job, it is rather natural if he is faithful to the historical research of the setting.
In addition, from a practical point of view, excluding psychological discomfort, this skill, which significantly increases combat power in a short period of time, would surely be of great help on the battlefield where lives come and go.
‘In addition, if you look at the quest right now, except for the awkward phrases, the content and flow itself are only helpful to me… ‘
So, with the decision to postpone this issue for now.
I decided to find a way to solve the situation that was right in front of me.
‘Fortunately, I was able to hand over command, but this is only the beginning. The really important part is how to lead the battle to victory from here.’
In the game, it was to wipe out the rebels from the position of the imperial army with superior power, but now, as a general of the rebels, I have to defeat the imperial army with insufficient power.
Still, there were advantages as the success of the small victories and the work of attracting the public opinion around them was successful, but it was absolutely forbidden to be careless.
‘Perhaps by now, General Bagoin has arrived over there. The British Empire’s proud 9th grade warrior… I’ve never fought him myself, but I’m sure he won’t be easy to deal with.’
A situation where you have to fight against an enemy who was originally one of your strongest allies.
As a Bagoin general, who is a strong man who cannot be compared to the incompetent Gates and who has quite excellent abilities as a general, I began to think about the best plan in my head while analyzing the situation calmly.
Also, though embarrassing,
In case of emergency, this newly acquired skill was also calculated to be used in the right place.

“Is it really? General Gates giving us command?”
“Yes, although he still retains the authority to command the main unit, he said that it is okay for subordinate units to act autonomously.”
At the words of the adjutant who reported the situation, Franklin looked surprised.
General Gates’ orders changed 180 degrees from yesterday.
In response, Franklin felt relieved that he had escaped the worst, and began to wonder why things had gone so well.
‘There’s no way that General Gates would have made this decision for no reason… for what reason?’
The fact that a person who is as stubborn as he is incompetent has changed his posture in less than a day means that there is a reason for that.
In that respect, it was at that time that Franklin was experiencing a questionable feeling.
“General Franklin.”
“You must be… at a meeting.”
The female manager who tried to persuade Gates with her at a meeting the other day.
With a sharp impression reminiscent of a snake and dark brown hair, she greeted politely first.
“My name is Benelita Arnold. This is the first time I’m giving formal greetings, General Franklin.”
“Nice to meet you. By the way… Do you have any idea what this situation is like now? Why did General Gates suddenly change his mind?”
“I don’t even know the details. However, according to the story I heard, it seems that General Cromwell had a private meeting with General Gates yesterday. Maybe something happened with you.”
“!… Captain Cromwell… You mean?”
Benelita answered with a slightly sharp smile.
As we saw before, she seemed to view the current situation very positively, from the position of hating General Gates’ strategy based on self-defense.

Meanwhile, Franklin, who hadn’t expressed it outwardly about her story, began to feel once again a growing fondness for the man he had believed all along.
‘indeed… Truly Captain Cromwell! No matter how much, I thought this was impossible, but I can’t believe he reversed the situation again… ‘
It has been said that one of the more difficult things to do than move a mountain is to change people’s hearts.
Nevertheless, Franklin admired Cromwell’s ability to solve this problem in just a few hours, and once again began to solidify the thoughts in her mind.
‘Also… You can’t just linger like this, if you’re such a great guy, you’ll have to catch him at all costs. The last time I was drunk and failed, but after this battle, I will definitely… ‘
Franklin is ready to rethink what is the most important thing in his life.
At that time, Director Benelita Arnold spoke to her in a voice full of sincerity.
“Anyway, now that we can breathe a sigh of relief, let’s discuss our future strategy. Although he handed over command to us, General Gates will still be holed up here for his own safety. You will have to devise your strategy with that in mind.”
“I see what you mean. If not, I will make arrangements and see you in the conference room in a minute.”
“All right. then.”
After that, Franklin broke up with Benelita.
Then she began wandering around the fort to find the man she had a heart for, the man who had given them fresh breath again.
‘I’m sure Captain Cromwell is making a grand plan to wipe out the enemies by now, right? Ahh… Really, the more I think about it, the more wonderful he is. If I could, I would want to be held in his arms right now… ‘
It was the time when Franklin wandered around the inside of the fort while thinking about that.
‘ah!… found.’
The figure of the man he finally began to see in her eyes.
A deserted courtyard located outside the fort.
Seeing Cromwell standing alone in a place where even silence was felt, Franklin began to approach the place without a moment’s hesitation.
at that time…
-“Lord, your lowly servant beseeches you earnestly in your name… ”
“… ?”
Suddenly Cromwell’s loud voice.
At this, Franklin had no choice but to stop momentarily…
Then, a more distinct sound began to ring in her ears.
-“Under the glory of the Almighty, bless this land for your mercy to manifest!”-
“!”
With those words, a dark green aura began to flow from Cromwell’s body.
Something different from what we’ve seen so far
A wave of even more intense power began to grip Franklin with a deep sense of amazement.
at that time.
“Um… Roughly like this… is it female… Also… The effect is certain, but the degree of cringe is a little severe… .?”
“… ”
The next moment, Cromwell finds Franklin as he is looking away.
right after that.
His face began to harden.
‘… f*ck… ‘
Cromwell DiesOfCringe upon finding out he was being watched 😆
*Dies from cringe*
