Grave Keeper of the Fallen Kingdom - Chapter 210



Clark, who belatedly came to his senses with the help of the saint, was in vain.

‘this.’

The immortal divine armor held in Ren’s hand.

And the divine power flowing out around his body.

While I fainted for a moment, the immortal armor fell over.

The good news is that he is very picky about the owner.

But what is that confident expression?

‘no way… … . The Immortal God’s Armor is the most difficult sacred item among the three sacred items. No matter how much Ren Argen has the stigmata, there is no way he could wear it.’

He looked at Ren with a nervous look on his face.

Just like his worries, Ren was actually unsure.

Even if the 5th Pope, Dean Athanakis, had descended, this body was not Dean’s body, so the Goddess might reject it.

– Hmm, I hope you avoid calling it that way.

‘sorry. It’ll just take a moment.’

– Thanks to you, I have prevented the destruction of the Holy Kingdom, so I will let you go. What’s going on?

‘The sealed saint has been released. Would you be able to wear this immortal divine armor?’

– You always create surprising situations. How did you get the new armor from the saint?

Dean also knew because he had heard news from the pre-war and pre-war popes.

That the young human being who was adopted as a saint was put on immortal armor, became a criminal, and was imprisoned in the Positirium.

No one could remove the immortal sandals from the saint.

However, because he did not have the ability to kill him, the Shingap was chained to the Positirium until now, but Ren Argen took the Immortal Shingap from a saint who was alive and well.

-Are you trying to take the sacred object?

‘no. Just show them for a moment.’

– is it. i get it. Let me help you.

[Increase the assimilation rate.]

I feel like my soul is being sucked out.

Control of the body was transferred to Dean, and he poured divine power into the immortal god armor.

Runes begin to be engraved on the new armor.

The language of God shining in golden light.

At the same time, the platinum brilliance of the new armor flashed and turned into a round sphere that was caught in Dean’s grasp.

“what? Immortal Goddess… … .”

“Guro… Have you changed?”

Saint and Clark widen their eyes and mutter.

The surrounding cardinals and priests did the same.

Even they had no idea that the immortal armor had such a function.

“It’s a skill that was lost a long time ago. “The moment you lose the rune, you cannot bring out the true power of the holy object.”

As he said, the large-scale sacred magic of Raman’s Spear that Ren showed in the last Azazel incident.

A miracle in which hundreds of fireballs falling from the sky healed people.

Not only the current Pope, Aston, but even the previous Pope, Ducas, could not unfold it.

Even though Doukas knew how to speak rune quite well.

“Protect me. Shin Gap.”

The new armor on Dean’s hand radiated platinum light and wrapped around his body, turning into armor again.

The immortal new armor, which was slightly different from the armor worn by the saint, with different patterns and appearance, was worn to fit his body perfectly.

– This is Shin Gap’s true appearance.

‘No, new armor can be changed into light armor or heavy armor at any time. It just changes into what the owner wants.’

– Is this possible?

‘It’s impossible with the capabilities of the human world. But it is possible with the power of God.’

Just like that.

Immortal divine armor that covered Ren from head to toe.

Dean moves his fingers slowly and gives a satisfied look in his eyes.

“It’s just right.”

“Nonsense! How did you… … .”

“Your eyes are shaking.”

The saint, seeing Dean’s deep eyes, takes a step back.

It feels as if my true feelings are completely exposed.

How can a person who has lived much less years than him have eyes like that?

The saint became increasingly afraid of Ren Argen in front of him.

“Oh, don’t come!”

As Dean took a few steps closer, he took a step back again.

“Even though you received God’s grace, you are still wandering, so I should help you.”

“for a moment! Ren Argen. Calm down. We have no intention of fighting with Seongguk.”

Clark stopped him and stepped forward.

The saint was already holding on to the hem of Clark’s clothes in an unknown fear.

Now, Clark had to solve this situation somehow.

“You think I’m a fool. “Until you put on the new armor, your eyes were full of greed and jealousy.”

“You misunderstand! Didn’t I tell you this on the way here? “We, the Avengers, will follow Ren Argen from now on!”

‘hmm. ‘What happened?’

Dean, completely unaware of the situation ahead, asked Ren.

– Let me talk about it.

‘So be it.’

Ren, who regained control of his body, glared at Clark and said.

“Isn’t the transaction over when the new armor has already been taken?”

Although it wasn’t something Ren would say because he broke trust first, he shamelessly decided to go out.

In the first place, Ren had no intention of sympathizing with the Avengers.

[Main Quest – Restoration of Positirium]

[Restore the dysfunctional Positirium and destroy the ‘Avenger’ forces located there.]

[Reward – Gravekeeper’s Slate]

The main quest was to take down the Avengers.

It was already impossible to sympathize with the Avengers.

Ren pretended to want their power and instead saw an opportunity to take away the divine armor.

“… … To be honest, I didn’t expect you to take the holy relic. But even so, from our perspective, we have no choice but to accept it.”

“Then you will still support me?”

“That’s right. And it is Black Star that created this situation. “If we confront each other like this, we will only end up making things look good for them.”

“That is correct. I won’t elaborate further here. go back.”

Clark nods with a miserable face, grabs the saint, turns and walks away.

– Why did they let you go?

‘My condition is not that good right now. No matter how much divine armor you have, it is impossible to block the saint without taking any damage.’

The biggest problem is that the Pope’s condition is urgent.

If a fight broke out like this and got involved, Aston might really die.

‘And the Positirium must not be left empty for too long.’

Even if you catch and kill the saint here, it is a problem.

There was no one to manage the Positirium.

One of the reasons the Black Star is targeting the western continent is because of the demonic energy that is created there.

Only if there is a saint in the Positirium to some extent can they be kept in check.

‘It’s not too late to deal with the avenger after blocking the Black Star’s attack.’

He has reached the level of immortal armor.

Now, it was definitely not impossible to kill a saint.

[Sub Quest – Hero]

[A person with the qualifications to be a hero is on the brink of death. Save him and connect the terminal.]

[Reward – All abilities +1]

A side quest that suddenly comes to mind.

Ren checked it and quickly approached Aston.

The only person here who could be called a hero was Aston Cash.

“Ren!”

“Get out of the way.”

The surrounding cardinals stepped back with worried faces.

Pale face. There weren’t many wounds on the body, but the inside was completely crushed.

“What on earth did you do…?” … .”

“You risked your life by using the Sacrifice. Moreover, as the recoil of the immortal armor was received, it became like this… … .”

Alfred, who was watching Aston right next to him, swallowed his sleep and said.

No matter how much divine power I poured into it, it didn’t change.

They looked at Ren pitifully.

The only person who could save him here and now was Ren.

‘What would you do if you were a cardinal? How can you be so incompetent? … .’

‘I couldn’t protect His Holiness right next to me. Damn it, how can you still be called a cardinal?’

‘If I planned the strategy properly… , I wasn’t just relying on His Holiness’ power.’

From Osilia, Alfred, Heron to the other cardinals, they were all so overwhelmed by helplessness that they could not utter a single word.

Although there were many disagreements, Aston was eventually elected Pope and is the current Pope of the Holy Kingdom.

And as soon as he became Pope, he risked his life to save the priests of the Holy Kingdom.

Even those who had opposed Aston’s inauguration as Pope in the conclave now fully recognized him as Pope.

Who could act like this?

The more things you have in your hands, the more difficult it is to sacrifice yourself.

But Aston put all that aside and considered the lives of the Holy Kingdom’s citizens and priests as his top priority.

– For the first time in a while, a useful guy became the Pope.

Dean guessed what type of person Aston was by reading the eyes and mood of the cardinals around him.

That’s probably why his stigmata sparkle and shine.

The fact that he was able to use two holy relics as soon as he became Pope was probably possible because he was a truly faithful person.

– I’ll save you.

‘please.’

Dean placed his hand on his chest and slowly blurted out an unintelligible language.

“ᛋᛁᚾᛁᛋᛁᚦᛁᛋᛁᛃ, ᛁᛃᛃᛁᛋᛁᚦᛅᚱᚢᛗ ᛁᛋ ᛁᚲᚺᛁᛋᛏᚱᚢᛚᚨᚾ ᛋᛁᚾᛏ ᚦᛅᛚᚱᚨᚾ ᛋᛟᛋᛁᚾ.”

At the same time, a dazzlingly cold light flowed from the grasp, and a golden brilliance soared into the sky, pushing away the clouds and opening up a vast expanse.

“Let’s go! ᛁᛏᛅᛁᚠ ᚢᛁᚴᚴᛋᛁᛚ ᚾᛅᛁᚱᛁᛋᛟᛋᛁ.”

What would it look like if God came down to earth?

The cardinals folded their hands as they stared blankly at the sacred, even ecstatic, sight.

Although no one noticed each other, they all prayed for Aston at that moment.

Quickly!

‘Can I give this child immortal armor? ‘We need all three gods to save this guy now.’

It wouldn’t be strange even if he died right away.

The mere fact that there is a possibility of saving him now shows just how much God cares for him.

– Please do so.

The new armor that was emitting light from Ren’s body passed over to Aston’s body and covered him.

At the same time, the sacred jewel on his chest, the Spear of Raman held in his right hand, and the immortal god armor covering his body simultaneously poured out majestic light and soared into the sky.

Quaaa!

Immediately after, a ray of white light descended from the sky and struck Aston’s wrist.

The stigmata engraved on my wrist lengthened and extended down my arm to my neck.

– Huh… … .

Ren felt speechless.

I have never seen anyone with such dark and large stigmata before.

No, isn’t it something that goes beyond the saint’s stigmata?

[You have completed 「Sub Quest – Hero」.]

[「Reward – All abilities +1」 is obtained.]

Aston’s eyes widen with a message.

The divine power overflowing in him continued to be absorbed into his body, and his complexion quickly returned.

“wren… sir?”

Aston looks here and there as if he can’t understand the situation.

Ren calmed him down and stood up.

“Ugh!”

At the same time, a feeling of helplessness weighs on my entire body.

– God has just answered the call. Don’t worry, it’s because some of your causality was used up in the process.

‘What is that… … .’

[We found someone who has the qualifications to be a hero. Connect the terminal.]

An invisible, intangible thread connects him to Ren.

[You have satisfied the conditions for “Subquest – Appearance of a Hero.”]

[「Reward – All abilities +1」 is obtained.]

All of my abilities increased by 2 in an instant, so I felt a little better, but my vision was still blurry.

– Take a break.

Ren lost consciousness with Dean’s warm voice.

“Ren!!”

* * *

Kikigeek- Kikigeek-

Ren opened his eyes to the sound of metal waking him up.

Whoa!

A completely changing background.

A huge fortress and a saint inside it, shedding bloody tears and turning into a devil.

– Clark… … , I will save you.

The golden glow that shimmered on his body as he knelt and cried was swallowed up by darkness, and the nearby area was covered in complete darkness.

Wow…

“Huh… … !”

Ren stood up, sweating coldly, and looked at the bracelet on his right arm.

The cart wheel, which was busy moving, stopped.

‘future… is it?’

The fact that the Wheel of Fate suddenly started working means that a crisis that could put the continent in danger has arrived.

“I’m going crazy.”

The demonization of a saint.

This was a variable I hadn’t even thought about.

Ren quickly stood up and headed to Bastian’s underground cathedral.

I had to meet Dean Athanakis, the 5th Pope.

“Wait, stop. here is-.”

“Get out of the way.”

The paladins blocking the road flinch when they see that it is Ren.

It may have been other people, but if it was Ren, they couldn’t stop it.

“Report to superiors-.”

“What a report! You bastard! “He is the one who saved His Holiness!”

The gunner next to me hit the second gunner and cleared the way.

“Please go in.”

“thanks.”

As you go down the long underground stairs, you can see the tombs of numerous popes.

– oh! It was that guy back then.

– In addition to saving the Holy Kingdom, you also saved the life of the current Pope, right?

– Where did this guy come from… … .

Ren passes by the ghostly voices of the Popes and approaches Dean.

– Looks like something happened again.

“The Wheel of Fortune turned on its own.”

– self?

If the wheel of fate moves on its own, an event that will have a huge impact on the continent has occurred.

Dean’s expression became serious.

“yes. In the future, a saint turned into a devil.”

– Do you know how far into the future it is?

“I do not know.”

– I guess we should leave right away. Take my weapons.

“yes.”

– If a saint becomes a devil, a monster of the level of the Great Devil will surely descend. Take the current Pope. He who has acquired the Three Gods and the new stigmata will be of great help.

“Speaking of the Great Evil, does that mean even Dean’s power can’t stop it?”

– He may not be able to use his full power, but the same goes for me. There are limits to the divine power in your body. Moreover, even the holy relics belong to the Pope.

It was a really serious situation. If Dean, who was relaxed when the last demon descended, said this.

– However, he will not be able to use his power properly because his holy relic has been taken away. can win. Invoking the Pope is just to reduce the probability of failure.

“All right.”

[「Main Quest – Restoration of Positirium」 will be changed to 「Main Quest – Destruction of the Great Evil」.]

[Main Quest – Destruction of the Great Evil]

[The energy of the great evil is hanging over the continent. Kill the great evil that will soon descend and protect the continent.]

[Reward – Gravedigger’s Slate, Gravedigger’s Slate Enhancement]

After checking the main quest, Ren was convinced that the Great Evil would descend on this land.

‘If we don’t stop it, the continent will end just like that.’
