Episode 169 Butterfly dream (2)
“Just looking at it, it’s bullshit. That Necrolord bastard tried to control us using unheard of skills. User ‘Han Piece’, who was providing information near the capital, was also hit! Do you think destroying the totem will annihilate the demon? “You have to believe what you believe!”
Late at night. A square where possessed people gather. The close-quarters spy spat out an impassioned speech.
“Mr. Close-knit spy. No one has yet said they would believe in the Necrolord. Please calm down.”
Princess Dina stepped forward on behalf of the possessed people who were exchanging anxious glances as they watched the close-range spy’s seizure.
“Anyway! Ishtania: Don’t be swayed by those two bitches’ messages. That’s what the Necrolord wants. We acted like fools because we were scared after hearing the surprised words of the goddess.
Will it end if we drive out all the gods? Do you think the bastard who claims that he will leave the cathedral behind if he destroys the Malak Totem? If all the totems are destroyed, the cathedral will be destroyed as well! Goddess, Malak, and all of us are going to turn into Nagari!”
The close-range spy pounded her chest.
Ishtania’s message. This was the reason why the possessed people rented the square late at night with the permission of Rachel, the administrator of Symphonia.
[The cathedral is in danger! We must protect the cathedral!]
This message was sent to all possessors through the status window. The goddess Ishtania, who had called them into this world, revealed her will for the first time, albeit indirectly.
[If the cathedral collapses, you will not be able to return home!]
I was so anxious that I posted another one. Two messages were sent in a short period of time.
“I was wondering earlier, is it true that if the cathedral falls, we won’t be able to go home?”
Princess Dina asked, and Geuncheop answered right away.
“It is all thanks to the cathedral that a goddess who has lost almost all of her followers is able to summon paladins and exert influence, even if only to a small extent. It’s like the final passage connecting the goddess and this world.
If the cathedral collapses, it will become difficult for the goddess to interfere in this world. No, she may not be able to interfere at all.”
“Then what happens?”
“This world becomes a game with no updates, like Champions of Storm. A game with server maintenance, but no patches and no newbies.”
“…Patch? Server?”
Princess Dina, who had never played many games, tilted her head. The reason she encountered her her game her her ‘Survival as a Paladin’ on Earth was due to several coincidences.
“It means you can’t go back home, and there won’t be any new possessors. Like skills, powers already given by the goddess will be maintained, but that’s it. Closed world? Forced national isolation policy? That’s the feeling.
“Unless we build a new cathedral, that’s true.”
“…”
Princess Dina was lost in her thoughts at the terrifying words.
The close-range spy took a deep breath and continued speaking.
“Please, don’t do anything unnecessary. Once all the totems are destroyed and Malak is neutralized, what happens next? The joint invasion of demons and zombies begins immediately. They will search everything and become zombies.”
“Okay. If it wasn’t for Malak, we wouldn’t have been able to gather here. I couldn’t even eat warm food. “You can’t fall for this bullying.”
“Isn’t there a dark cow who returns favor with vengeance?”
‘Morning tent installation engineer’ Siwoo and ‘I believed in Mr. Monkey’ and the monkey agreed with the close spy’s words.
“Okay.”
The other possessors nodded. There were quite a few possessors who only looked at each other.
“But why did he propose a deal? “There’s no God, so wouldn’t it end if we just bring demons in and attack?”
Possessor A cautiously opened his mouth.

“Well, it’s probably because you don’t know that the god Malak is absent right now, right? “No one has written such information in the community.”
Another possessed person B answered.
“No, that’s still true. The fact that he invaded the capital means that the Seven Headed Dragons and demons were all timing their move this way. Then you know that we had a bloody fight with the devils, right?
Now is the time to attack, so why are you asking us? “If you bring all the demons and zombies, it’s game over.”
“He must be tired, you idiot. “Necrolord, that bastard also went to war with the demons in the capital. Do you think he’s in good condition?”
“Is that so?”
A close-quarters spy who was listening to the conversation between the two possessors intervened in the conversation.
“The Necrolord said he was controlling the evil spirit. Although I said it very simply, it must not be an easy task. Still, she was once a god, so there’s no way she could be easily manipulated. I am sure that just controlling the evil spirits would be a daunting situation.
Demons are guys who move like an army. Without the dark clouds and the seven-headed dragon, the current highest rank is the evil god. First of all, they will be listening to the Necrolord who controls the evil spirit, but if the evil spirit gets even slightly out of control, there will be internal strife.
Since we’re in an uncomfortable situation, we’re trying to drive a wedge this way.”
Since it made sense, Hannah nodded.
Although he was an idiot, he was a close-range spy who was also the best expert on the ‘Survive as a Paladin’ game and this world.
“Then what should I do? First of all, let’s say that the term ‘totem destruction’ is a chewer. So, should we rush to the capital before he can completely control the evil spirit? Or should I go safely to Malak? Ha, Shiba is so fucking complicated.”
These were the words of ‘Ghoul’, the actual commander of the close-quarters attack team.
“But wouldn’t it be right to wait until Malak comes before going? If we go on our own, it would be nice if everything goes well, but there’s not much left to do. I wonder if the tribal alliance people will believe us and fight together.”
The Corrupt Power Knight said, touching his chin. This also made sense.
“Wasn’t he just bluffing when he said he would destroy the cathedral?”
“Then the goddess would have sent a message like this?”
“Even in the game, the cathedral was a sanctuary that even demons couldn’t touch. But a necrolord, who is not such a huge force, controls the paladins and destroys the cathedral? Doesn’t that make a lot of sense? “It’s a breakdown of balance.”
“If you put it that way, is the balance between our paladins and the demonic forces correct? Even if I reach max level, I won’t be able to touch the Seven Headed Dragon.”
“Still, you’re a bitch who’s called God, so would you get bluffed?”
“He could be just a really strong astronaut.”
“Mr. Ani, have you become an idiot because you’ve been living alone in hiding? Do you think a bastard who is powerful enough to send us to another world with super powers called skills wouldn’t be able to tell a lie?”
“Let’s just talk one person at a time.”
Before we knew it, the meeting had degenerated from the purpose of gathering, ‘Not to be deceived by the words of the Necrolord and the Goddess,’ to ‘How to defeat the Necrolord?’ ‘ < Br﹥
“It is correct to assume that the Necrolord has the ability to destroy the cathedral. Otherwise, there is no need to talk like this. Just wait until Malak comes and kill either the evil spirit or the necrolord.”
“That’s the problem. Hey, why are we fighting for our lives? Wasn’t it to go back home? Do you want to keep living in this shitty world? Even if you kill all the devils and evil spirits, if they cannot return to Earth, there is no meaning!”
Many people nodded slightly and passively expressed agreement.
“Fuck that, you can’t trust that bastard Caron! I don’t even know how many people on Earth have been manipulated by guys like Reno Johnson and One Piece! Does that bastard see us as human bastards? “They’ll just see me as a spare corpse or a goddess!”
“You said Malak would send you to Earth! I heard you said that to your friend in the morning tent! He must have a way!”
Amidst the chaos created by the frightened people, Bella, left alone after losing her sister, turned to her her lord’s castle her her her, where her totem her her her she would be kept.
“…”
Hannah watched Bella carefully out of the corner of her eye.
I hope she doesn’t have any useless thoughts.

[If there is a problem, let Lacena Kanto or Rachel know right away.]
[Petite Noah: Yes!]
“Huh.”
I sighed and closed the community.
Before dealing with Charon, you must first escape from this unidentified space. That is the top priority.
You can hear about the status of the tribal alliance from Noah, Siu, and Hannah through private messages. If there’s anything that’s holding me back, it’s this.
[The cathedral is in danger! We must protect the cathedral!]
[If the cathedral collapses, you will not be able to return home!]
She must have seen Charon’s post about her destroying the cathedral, and the goddess sent her a message through her status window her. Perhaps it was a notice posted with administrator privileges, but the post was visible even when the status window was closed.
Did Charon post her post knowing that the goddess would make such a fuss about her?
“You clever bastard. … Oh?”
I was a bit surprised because it had been a few years since I had spoken out loud. Even though I’m in a crisis, I suddenly feel better.
There is no one anyway. I can go around talking to myself.
“It’s a complete flower garden here.”
It is a space filled with beautiful flowers and trees that I have never seen before. I walked slowly while smelling the fragrant flowers.
“Oh, you fell. “It hurts.”
My legs keep getting twisted. Perhaps because it’s been a while, walking isn’t easy. I clicked my tongue at the pain I felt for the first time in a long time.
… It seems like my body has become blurry for a moment. I guess it’s an illusion, right?
