Heavenly light came to Aurelia.
You can’t move hastily. It is better to give up the attack first to the opponent than to attack first and prevent Elena from being able to use justice. Ari, wearing a protective suit, stood at the front again, as if he was planning to take the first blow. Looking at the faintly shining Aurelia again, she was truly a mysterious being. If she were an ordinary human being, how could she not worship such a being?
“I declare as a daughter of heaven. “None of you will die here today.”
?
“Also, before this, I would like to reason with the daughter of the new person. At this moment today, to whom are the scales of justice tilted?”
??
“I have not harmed you. None of the believers here attacked you. But you arrived at this point by cutting down teachers and believers. I will ask. “Do you really think you have justice?”
The unbelievable shock took my breath away. Elena’s embarrassed answer continued.
“Do you not know that you are carrying out evil rituals here? “You’re changing people!”
“I didn’t change it, I just saved it. Even so, let’s say I changed it as you said. Did any of the ‘originals’ die? “Everyone is fine here.”
“You kidnapped someone by brainwashing them -”
“It is nothing more than an absurd misconception, but I will accept your argument. To the ignorant, it may seem that way. Even if there was brainwashing and kidnapping. Can you who killed the teacher today truly be innocent? Are you going to punish us as sinners?”
I frowned for a moment. When we discuss the sins of cultists, you suddenly retort that you have no sins? Isn’t this a typical skin wavelength error? However, the very fact that a word was created to refer to a type of error also means that the ‘logical error’ works very well for people. As expected, Elena was embarrassed by those words and was unable to answer.
“Of course, there will be a desire to protect one’s comrades, and that can also be said to be a kind of cause. Therefore, I swear again in the name of God. “I will not kill any of you here today.”
This statement, this conversation. It is clear and leaves no room for misunderstanding. Aurelia knows the mechanism of ‘justice’! They are trying to block the conditions for justice by pointing out that we do not have righteousness, and they are even trying to block ‘justifiable defense’ by swearing in the name of God not to kill us.
Am embarrassed. He’s not a prisoner, he’s an adversary, at best he’s an NPC in the hotel, so how does he understand the principle of ‘blessing’? Even the principles of justice are not set in stone and will vary depending on who receives the blessing, right? Aurelia goes beyond simply knowing the blessings of justice and responds to ‘Elena’s justice’ as if countering it.
Let’s think calmly.
At the time of the first attempt, Aurelia did not say anything about being a ‘new person’, nor did she try to understand and counter the mechanisms of justice like she does now. This means that she is not aware of the information she was born with. On someone’s ‘second attempt’, she imbued her with information that was originally unknown to her.
‘The Father has spoken… .’
The situation is clear. There is no way that the beings in the scenario could understand the hotel’s system on their own. But if it’s ‘Ju’, it’s the opposite. It’s weirder not knowing. Because the prisoners know about the hotel in the first place.
Questions appeared one after another. It is natural for a prisoner to know about blessings. But how on earth can that information be conveyed to Aurelia?
It’s strange. If the prisoners can run wild like this, the cursed room can never be solved. If this had been possible, the other prisoners would have given information about us to our adversaries from the first attempt.
Why can only the Lord do things that other prisoners cannot? In the past, an owl’s advice passed through my head.
‘The state has designed a plan in which everyone can benefit.’
Is that board the cause of the current incomprehensible situation?
… Let’s stop worrying for now.
If this continues, justice will be sealed and only Aurelia will transform into an angel to deal with us. He said that he would not kill in the name of God, so that may not be a lie, but doesn’t it mean that he can do anything as long as he doesn’t kill?
A pillar of light came down. Everyone shouted at the same time.
“Pounce now!”
We are not the same as before. Just because there is no justice does not mean that there is no power to use it!
A wave spreads out as if it were pressing down on the skin. With a white flash, the cultist in front turned his gun back. A girl in her hazmat suit rushed in, treating her bullet like a BB bullet. The nightmare demon born from beyond the ominous imagination began to howl.
And then a book appeared in my hand.
“Well, I’m moving to the rear with Ms. Eunsol!”
Of course, not everyone can be fit for combat. Kim Sang-hyun moved to the rear.
*
In a split second after the battle started, all of the cultists who were pointing their guns at us collapsed. There was no need for stars or bracelets to fully demonstrate their power. A bizarre caterpillar appeared next to Elena!
The being that I was afraid of appearing in my dream seemed to be singing a strange song, and in less than three seconds, the madness spread like wildfire. Looking at the dozens of soldiers lying on the ground, everyone, even us, couldn’t hide their amazement and looked towards Elena. Of course, there is no time for admiration. This is because I have never worried about the poor equipment or the military power of the cult.
When Aurelia stretched out her hand, a blazing heat ray split the air. At the same time, Ari jumped in and threw her body to block the heat ray with her body!
At that moment, as I approached Aurelia and tried to possess her, I felt a sharp pain as if my head was being stabbed by dozens of needles. Did you fail? Aurelia, who uses the power of heaven, is so high-ranked that she can be prevented from being possessed?
But that doesn’t mean it’s not effective! Aurelia seemed to have experienced a similar phenomenon as me, and her entire body trembled for a moment. Cha Jin-cheol took advantage of the opportunity and aimed the star at Aurelia’s body, and the entire light in her body became blurred.
“Who the hell are you? “Are they the apostles of the new one?”
Ari said in an awkward tone.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know who that is.”
Who exactly is the ‘new person’ I was talking about earlier? Instead of answering, Aurelia kicked her off the ground with such force that the concrete of her floor shattered, and her punch sent Ahri flying through her hazmat suit. Even though the total weight was close to 200kg, it flew over 10m as easily as a bouncy ball.
However, to this extent, the person inside the protective suit does not die. We must continue the offensive. As expected, Ari, who had flown away, brushed himself off and got up as if it was no big deal.
I looked around for a moment. At the start of the battle, numerous cultists were incapacitated by being exposed to stars and ominous imaginary powers.
… There is no way an ordinary human being who has lost his senses and collapsed can withstand the aftermath of a battle between superhumans. None of us targeted the cultists, but just from a missed attack or the aftermath of the star’s wave, dozens of people have already been reduced to pieces of meat.
Anger appears in Aurelia’s eyes when she recognizes the situation.
“dare! “My you-”
“To kill me?”
“… I will never kill you.”
An ominous singing voice was heard in the square again. Aurelia’s brow furrowed sharply as she heard the song of the caterpillar standing next to Elena. Can that song only target Aurelia?
I guess it’s good. Aim for that timing and attempt possession again! As if waiting, a flash of light also appeared on Songi’s bracelet that was attached to the wall.
“How dare you bastards!”
“For a self-proclaimed daughter of God, she is foul-mouthed. “Take this!”
Behind the staggering Aurelia, Cha Jin-cheol used the star like an ax to hit her. The moment Aurelia let out her anger and threw a punch with enough force to send her car flying, Ari once again caught the punch with her protective clothing.
Without missing the opportunity, Cha Jin-cheol approached again and struck Aurelia with a harsh blow. The wave of light that had not left Aurelia’s body since the battle began slowly began to fade. The tactic is working in the form of me, Elena, and Song Yi tying her up with their respective abilities, Ari blocking her attacks with her protective suit, and Cha Jin-cheol delivering the final blow with her star power.
I instantly felt a strong sense of discomfort. I thought it would be a much harder, more painful battle, with most of us dying, as we fight with justice sealed… .
At the time when the six superhumans were engaged in a desperate battle, there were people who did not participate in the battle but stood a step away and thought deeply.
Eunsol Lee: Is it strange? Why don’t you fly?
Sanghyun Kim: Was it originally possible to fly?
As soon as they saw the text in the chat window, everyone’s expressions were simultaneously filled with doubt!
This is the essence of the sense of discomfort I felt earlier. Even though the place is an underground city, there is plenty of space to fly. But why is Aurelia grabbing us on the ground instead of thinking about flying? Simply by her taking to the sky, many of us see her combat power plummet.
The lack of flight ability is not the only problem. Where has the strength gone that used to crush Elena, who raised the dead with one prayer and invoked her justice?
Only about five minutes had passed since the battle began, and the victory was already in our favor. I thought we could win if we all worked together, but I didn’t think we could win in 5 minutes.
An embarrassment is an embarrassment, and a fight is a fight. You can’t suddenly back down!
I attempted possession once again. As Aurelia’s posture collapsed, this time her Ari covered her entire body and held her down, and Cha Jin-cheol attempted to stuff her star into her mouth.
— Boom!
Is this one last hidden power? Aurelia, who instantly displayed tremendous strength, threw her Ahri and her Jincheol type at the same time and released a heat ray with her fingertips. I had to roll around on the floor like crazy. The distance widened in a moment.
Aurelia and we both began to catch our breath for a moment. Aurelia’s condition is a mess. The light emanating from her entire body was clearly dimmer than before, her clothes were more than half torn, and the torn areas were so polluted by the stars that they even took away from the male form of a human being.
There is nowhere to run. We have the passageway out of this underground city behind us! Despair appears on Aurelia’s face. However, we, who had already begun to have doubts, could not guarantee victory either.
Where on earth is ‘Lord’?
“father… .”
“father? Are you talking about ‘Lord’? “Where on earth is he and what is he doing?”
Are you already unable to hear me? Aurelia didn’t even pretend to listen to me and let out a sigh of despair.
“Why don’t you answer…?” . Why have you forsaken me? .”
The moment Aurelia’s pain-filled screams filled the underground city, flames appeared in the air, engulfing the corpses of cultists filling the underground city.
