RUST -654

Kaaaak? (Saint?)

Caw- (That’s what they said-)

Caw? (What’s that?)

Kkak kkak kkaaak. (They say it’s to tell our story to God.)

“That’s not all. It’s a role to check if you’re still scheming like you are now.”

Quagiin? (Check?)

“Of course. If God knew that we were all gathered together and talking like this, he would be very sorry, right?”

Fuzz-

The crows quickly went to work. She was a nurse with many qualities.

The Church of HOLLY calmly accepted the news that the nurse had been raised to the status of a saint. There was no reason to spit on her, since she was the saint chosen by Him.

“She is a saint. If she chose it, then there must be a purpose.”

“I have seen the chosen saint from a distance, and she was truly a saint.”

“Hmm- Since you said you’ll attend this service, let’s watch.”

“Because there were many followers who were curious.”

On the day the saint attended the service, the central church was crowded with people.

“Hello, it’s nice to meet you again. My name is Nanae Ono, and I have been appointed as a saint this time.”

The moment she bowed her head, the disciples intuitively realized what grace meant.

“······.”

“······.”

A sacred destructive force that silenced the room with just one greeting. Yes, he was a sacred person who took one’s breath away just by looking at him.

“HOLL–Y- Sh-Spirit.”

“Oh- My··· Might.”

She was a saint who made exclamations come out naturally.

HOLLY The congregation welcomed her warmly.

“You see? She’s a natural born saint.”

Ki-sun was in high spirits. Maru was also a little surprised that the nurse was doing better than expected. Contrary to what he had said, she was handling the crows and wolves well.

Even the occasional field mice that were managed followed the nurse’s orders well, so it seemed that they were making good use of the floor in their own way.

‘He said he was watching.’

Take-

‘He was happy that you were doing well so far. Here is his blessing.’

Jjieeeek-

The nurse said that she was providing the mice with the supplies they needed according to God’s will. The response was much better than when the PD, who did not understand the language, had conveyed it indirectly through the scriptures.

The idea of ​​a saint speaking directly to the mice resonated well with the mice.

‘You told me to deal with those who are fleeing Montreal.’

Jji-jjik- jjiik?

The nurse nodded with a pitiful expression in response to the field mouse’s question, “Those who go outside the city are human, so can we kill them?”

‘Yes, it is His will.’

Take-

“If it is His will,” said the mice, nodding their heads.

Tsk-tsk- (But I’ll take care of myself this time.)

Jjiiik– (Let’s take care of this quickly.)

The socialites who fled from Montreal ended up as food for rats.

Jjiik- (Thank goodness there’s a saint.)

Sizzle- sizzle- (Because we can tell exactly what He wants from us.)

Interpreting God’s will through scriptures took time, because it was difficult to be sure that the interpretation was correct.

Still, the mice were relieved because a female human who could communicate had become a saint. Since a female who could communicate had become a saint, rather than a human who could not communicate, didn’t she become a communication channel through which they could convey their thoughts to the god of death?

The rats began to guard the nurse’s surroundings voluntarily. The saint was important to the rats, who remembered the bloody masses of tens of thousands of their compatriots.

“See? Every time the mice go outside the nurse’s office, they guard it.”

At the sight of the nurse squeezing the mouse in an instant, Ki-sun nodded and said, “Look at that.”

“If you are a symbol of the inviolable divinity, then the saint is a symbol of the divinity that you can have conversation with.”

“Good Cop, Bad Cop?”

“That’s what I was aiming for. The more I fear you, the more I’ll try to talk to you through the saintess rather than directly. Honestly, you’ll find that more convenient.”

“And what if a problem arises?”

“Risk hedging will also come naturally, since I will first ask the saintess the reason for the ordeal.”

“······.”

“Imagine if a saint died, not a saintess. Imagine if a pope or a cult leader was killed.”

“Isn’t it the same?”

Death was fair. Whether it was the death of a saint or the death of a saint, wasn’t death still death?

“No. The death of a saint on the battlefield is easily linked to sacrifice or martyrdom. On the other hand, when a cult leader, pope, or saint dies on the battlefield, faith is easily shaken.”

“Strange. Couldn’t it be that the saint was defeated because she was abandoned by God? Is it the same for the pope or the saint? Couldn’t it be that the reason she was defeated was because God abandoned her?”

Ki-sun’s eyes narrowed at Maru’s rebuttal.

“If that’s true as you say, then how do you explain those who went crazy after the saint(?) died this time?”

“It’s because of the ability, the mental ability.”

“If it was a psychic ability, the brainwashing should have been lifted as soon as the woman died. But what do you think about the fact that she risked her life and ran away?”

“I guess we should see it as brainwashing mixed with religion.”

Ki-soon spoke as if she had been waiting for the answer.

“That’s exactly what makes the saint unique. She lowers the psychological barrier that makes it easy for religious beliefs to creep in.”

Maru nodded his head involuntarily at Gi-sun’s words that concepts like saint and virgin were effective in digging into the subject.

“Yes. I have a lot to say, but let’s say that’s true. So you’re saying that you’re going to use the saintess to naturally bring them together?”

“It might be a problem if a saint changes her mind, but a nurse isn’t the type of woman to do that, right?”

If you asked her to be a saint, she would widen her eyes and scream, “Ahhhhhh.” She was not a woman who would boast about having religious power.

“···yes.”

“First of all, nurses can talk to animals. Communicating with animals is an ability that is suitable for the role of a saint.”

As expected, it was a typical answer from Gi-sun. Even her eyes were squinty.

“The saint has taken his place and is relieved of his worries. Now, his faith will not waver easily. The hierarchy will also be established naturally.”

“Sequence without wavering?”

Ki-soon continued his explanation, coughing slightly.

“Yes. The existence of the saint paradoxically means that your position is definitely above her.”

The story was that Maru would naturally be recognized as a god or a wise god, as he would try to communicate with God through the saint.

“It’s about going from an uncertain being to a certain being, like a god’s agent, savior, or apostle. The god of death. The wise god. Something like that.”

“Ha- Okay. You’re going to take care of the aftermath?”

Ki-soon’s eyes widened at the words, “Take responsibility for what you did.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Let’s make him the king officially. God is a bit different. What do you think General Dan Brown will think?”

‘Even the Empire would be dumbfounded.’ There was a huge difference between finding the God of Death to manage animals and openly believing in a story about the God of Death.

“Ah- Now that we have a saint, let’s not say anything weak, Your Majesty. The island nation only has a god in name, but in our sacred kingdom, there exists a god of death who can easily destroy a city alone.”

“shut up.”

As Maru got angry, Ki-soon burst out laughing.

“Don’t laugh. You punk. You piece of shit…”

The god of death was too much.

Animals may be eaten by the god of death, but will humans be eaten by the god of death?

“Don’t worry. I’ve got a plan. Those who escaped outside Montreal were caught as rats. What are you going to do with those inside?”

“What should I do? What should I do? I have to catch them all.”

If you start something like this, you have to see it through to the end. I had no intention of leaving those who were united by religion alone.

Ki-soon nodded at Maru’s firm answer. He said he wasn’t, but judging from his actions, he was definitely like the ‘God of Death’.

A small girl, like a baby raccoon, looked around.

Often, he would run this way and then glance. Then he would run that way and then glance. Even though he moved so obviously, the soldiers standing guard did not notice.

St. Andrews Church and nearby buildings were surrounded by yellow no-trespassing tape.

‘There are a lot of people near the church, so let’s start from the building.’

As we entered through the tape, a long hallway appeared. One side of the hallway was filled with corpses covered in cloth.

‘What on earth happened?’

As she walked briskly through the hallways lined with medics and paramedics, no one paid any attention to the little woman.

Ability to impede perception. A kind of mental passive ability. It was an ability that made it impossible to see or hear.

As I entered the wide space at the end of the hallway, a disaster struck my eyes.

‘Hiyuu- Did the second floor collapse?’

People in exosuits were clearing away the rubble. Each piece revealed chunks of crushed flesh.

“There. Take the corpses with their heads intact separately.”

“My lower body was crushed.”

“Then at least save your head.”

“All right.”

The little girl frowned at the sight of her hair being cut off and placed in a preservation container.

‘Why the head?’

Although she looked as fragile as a small baby raccoon, she didn’t seem to be afraid of seeing blood, as she didn’t run away even though she witnessed a beheading right in front of her.

Click- click-

A woman started walking forward, diligently taking pictures here and there with her camera.

‘This much?’

The heads in their preservation containers were piled up in a corner. Often, I went closer to check, but there was nothing special about them. They were literally just heads in a preservation solution.

Huh- what is it?

What she was interested in, having lost interest in her head, was the trace left on the ceiling. There was something strange about the collapsed ceiling.

‘It was cut so cleanly that it collapsed? Does that make sense? I have no idea.’

Click- click-

A voice directed at a small woman taking pictures here and there.

“What are you doing here?”

“yes?”

Cognitive impairment ability is normal?

A woman who reflexively takes a picture in the direction of a voice.

Click-

Simultaneously with the shutter sound

A long solid line passed by the camera the woman was holding.

Crunch-

A blade sticking out between the split camera halves.

Kujik-

The crimson blade dug into the woman’s shoulder.

Kkaaa!

“What kind of girl are you?”

The woman, sobbing like a raccoon cub, couldn’t understand the current situation.

“Huh? How?”

The cognitive impairment was mental. So, it would not have been possible to recognize it.

Even if you noticed, why did you stab me with a knife like this? She displayed her abilities to the max.

‘It doesn’t work?’

When she couldn’t change Maru’s perception even after using all her abilities, the little woman burst into a weak cry.

“Ugh- Ugh- Ah. It hurts. Aaaah-”

Maru spoke to the woman who was crying sadly.

“Haa- This is ridiculous. You used your powers, but now you’re using your brain?”

The eclipse embedded in the woman’s shoulder was twisted 90 degrees.

simplicity and honesty-

Kkaaaaaaah!

“Why are you pulling out your sword? When you pull out your sword, my heart starts pounding. What’s going on that makes you pull out your sword? Is this terrorism?”

Ki-sun frowned at Maru, who was holding a knife.

“Can’t you see this?”

“what?”

A small woman flinched as she was dragged in with a knife stuck in her shoulder.

“Can’t you see the blood flowing? Can’t you smell the blood?”

“Blood? What are you talking about?”

“Turn off your abilities.”

“Ugh-”

Suddenly, a small woman covered in blood appeared before Ki-sun’s eyes.

“What the- fuck.”

Ki-sun’s eyes were wide and round.

“Hoo- are you surprised?”

“Surprise. Oh. Wouldn’t you be surprised? What is this? Is it hiding?”

“It’s different from hiding.”

“This is crazy.”

Perception impairment was a different ability from stealth. I couldn’t see or smell anything. Even if I heard footsteps, I couldn’t recognize them.

“So why did you bring this woman here?”

“You’re not a cultist, but a member of an organization that fought against you? You brought us here because you thought the Governor would know about us.”

“Do you believe that? What do you know?”

“Yeah. It’s true (ㅇ). We know-. I’m not really a cult member. We fought over there.”

“How can we know and trust that you are the one?”

“We told you where the social gathering was. The Church of St. Endur’s. We were the ones who gave you that information (Own).”

The corners of Ki-sun’s mouth twitched at the desperate little woman’s words.

“Did you hear that?”

“uh.”

“They were trying to screw us.”

“That’s right. The tea murders and the people who were after the fishermen came to check the scene. That’s it.”

“Oh- Is there a reason why Your Majesty has captured you? By any chance?”

“Yeah. That’s it.”

The two men who had been giving and receiving spoke to the cowering woman.

“So where is your base?”

“If they fought against the cultists, there must be a lot of capable people?”

The little girl trembled at those villainous eyes.
