Faith Life of a Former Scammer

091. Bury the debris, go to the witch!

Speaking of results alone, Leone’s plan was a success.

A black orb that contained fragments.

The orb contained the power to disassemble the fragments. Depending on the nature of the power, the beads change color or become transparent.

‘Is this beyond imagination?’

I could feel tremendous energy wriggling in the marble.

“What the hell are you… … .”

The witch murmured in surprise.

What she hadn’t been able to do for hundreds of years, Leon had done in a snap.

‘What are you already surprised about? The real surprise is starting now.’

[Mission: Eliminating the Great Darkness.]

[The mission has been cleared.]

[Destruction is delayed.]

A mission clear notification window popped up in front of Leon.

It was clear what kind of reward would be given.

[The ■■■■■ that was blocked from extinction has disappeared.]

[W-13 returns to normal.]

Some of the energy around it has dissipated, but more energy remains in its place.

It was natural.

‘Since the fragments have been blocked, W-13, which should have been consumed originally, has no choice but to remain.’

W-13, which awakens the blood of monsters, burns itself to extinguish the fragments.

W-13, which should have been consumed like that, is left thanks to the witches.

‘The reward is obvious.’

[The remaining W-13 will be given as a reward.]

W-13 was the reward. A huge amount of W-13 was absorbed into Leone’s body.

As expected, there was no reaction from Leon.

‘This is as far as I thought.’

It was a completely useless power that only took up space, but Leon had a way to utilize it.

‘What if I put this in Blin?’

It’s an inappropriate power for wolves, but it’s a perfect power for Blin.

When you’re deciding how to use it. She opened her mouth again.

“This!?”

It seemed that something had changed in her body.

‘no way!?… … Aren’t monsters only affected!?’

There was only one reason to be surprised in this situation. Leon opened his mouth as if he already knew.

“Can you feel the change?”

“… … Ah yes! Did you know about this too!?”

Leon nodded.

“yes. So it was destroyed. Do you remember the energy around the debris?”

“ah… … Yes. It was an unknown force that could be observed but not used.”

Leon explained about the energy around him.

It was explained that the energy is the power to awaken the blood, and that the power is extinguishing the fragments.

“What are we doing… … .”

After hearing all the explanations, she let out a sigh.

“it’s okay. You don’t have to beat yourself up too much. Is it resolved now?”

She knelt in front of Leon.

“I was truly blessed.”

A sudden change in her attitude.

This reaction meant she knew something.

“I guess you know this energy?”

“I didn’t know until the priest explained it to me. We thought it might be the power flowing from the fragments.”

They thought the exact opposite.

Not the energy gathered to dissipate the fragments.

With energy derived from fragments.

“But, after listening to the priest’s explanation, it became clear. Our records contained something similar to what the priest said.”

Records left hundreds of years ago.

It was a record that could not be found now.

“This power goes by many names. Origin of a species. power of origin. The seed of the species.”

“You mean the power to govern a species?”

“Similar, but a little different. It’s more like a force that allows us to break through the limits of our species.”

Her lengthy explanation followed, but it was not very interesting to Leone.

‘The power I can obtain is the last thing left here.’

If the blood awoke, it meant that the fragments had been extinguished and spread all over the continent.

W-13 was the last remaining force.

At the end of such a tedious explanation, useful information finally came out.

“I heard that those who accept this power the most become kings.”

This was pretty useful information.

“Is it possible to be recognized as a king just by accepting a lot of power?”

“I don’t know that far.”

Did he become a king because he had power?

Do you have the power to be a king?

It was a question of which came first, the chicken or the egg.

‘Let’s not make it complicated.’

In any case, it was important for Leone to have W-13 and ‘our side’ to accept it.

‘That’s also new on our side!’

* * *

“Have you seen how much of that power came to me earlier?”

“… … Yes. I saw.”

A huge amount was absorbed into Leon’s body, but it was strange not to see it.

“Maybe because I destroyed the fragment, it seems that they decided that I had the ownership.”

“It will be the will of the world.”

She nodded as if it were natural.

‘I’ll be grateful if you can convince yourself.’

It was something that could never be called a mission reward.

So, a proper ‘story’ was needed.

“However, I have no intention of using this power on myself. I am just a priest serving God, but this is not the power I need.”

She opened her mouth in disbelief.

“I think the world has changed a lot. I never imagined that there would be someone like you.”

Of course, it wasn’t because Leon was noble that he wouldn’t use this power.

‘It’s not that I don’t use it, it’s that I can’t.’

Unlike moonlight, this power did not work on Leone at all.

Even if it worked, I wouldn’t have used it because I didn’t know what variables would arise.

Hiding his inner thoughts, Leone began to tell the story he had prepared.

“It’s a thankful story, but the world hasn’t changed that much. To my shame, the churches are still corrupt and corrupt. It seems that humans do not change easily.”

Leon smiled self-deprecatingly.

That smile was truly dangerous and pitiful.

She fell in love with Leon’s story.

“That’s why I can’t accept this power any more. If I accept this power, I will not be able to be a priest.”

A priest who still works to purify the corrupt church and all of them.

“Someone has to make the churches clean. For the sake of the world.”

This was the story Leon had prepared.

‘Well, it’s a bit obvious, but.’

It’s as effective as it sounds.

“You are so wonderful. When I was living, if there was someone like the priest… … .”

It was even more effective for her, who had experienced the Church’s rampage hundreds of years ago.

“My small actions change the world. I believe so.”

Leon’s words contained strong conviction.

“Can I too?”

She asked cautiously, and Leon answered with a smile.

“By handing over the marble to me, you have already changed the world. Thank you for your help.”

“ah!”

If it didn’t come over, that would be a strange thing.

* * *

With everything passed, Rion handed over another ‘goodwill’.

“Are you planning to find your clan once you get out of here?”

“yes. I plan to find the clan first.”

“Why don’t you move with me?”

“That’s something I’m too shy about. You helped me so much, how can I get help again?”

Leon shook his head.

“no. I told you I’d look for it. I will lend you my strength.”

“… … Would that be okay?”

“Sure. You need time to adapt to the world.”

“Thank you very much.”

Leon had no intention of receiving only thanks.

I asked for goodwill and went to double.

“Besides, it’s a problem even after finding it.”

“Are you saying there is a problem?”

Of course, there was no problem.

“What if the witch clan is doing bad things to survive?”

At Leon’s words, she put on a look of surprise.

“My family couldn’t do that… … no. Maybe it’s for survival… … .”

She murmured with a confused expression.

“If that’s the case, the witch-sama also needs strength to restore the family to their original state.”

Thanks to Leone, her hard-earned power disappeared without leaving even a speck of dust behind.

“There is also my fault. I will give you my power back.”

“You mean give me strength?”

Leon pointed to the marble.

“There is a lot of energy here. Could we use this energy?”

“… … It will take some time, but it will be possible.”

Besides, it didn’t end here.

“And I’ll give you one more. If you give me the seed of a species, won’t you become the queen of witches?”

“Hey, you don’t need a position like that to be a queen.”

She was embarrassed, but it was necessary for Leon.

“Can’t we just put it back and step back? Or you can use it as a force to help the clan.”

She wanted to say it was okay, but there was nothing wrong with what Leon said.

She needed strength.

Leon pushed her back.

“You have nothing to be so sorry for. You’re a colleague who saved the world together, right? I only help because I can help my colleagues.”

She was no shameless person.

“Thank you very much. I will repay this favor no matter what.”

“Thank you for that heart alone.”

This was no joke.

If you had that heart, it was enough.

“Then, take a comfortable position.”

she sat on the floor

‘Bixby!’

[Yes. I will move on the new 8th road!]

A marble newly registered to Bixby.

‘The eighth road.’

A tremendous amount of energy emanated from the orb and entered her body.

‘great. it’s Siri Can Hogang be activated?’

[All conditions met. Hogang can register.]

Why is gratitude important?

It was because of the registration of Hogang.

‘great. While injecting W-13, register Hogang!’

[Special skill: Hogang is activated.]

A dazzling light burst from her body.

Not dealing with demons.

A witch was born.

‘New Hogang. Welcome!’

* * *

It wasn’t until she and Blinn were injected with W-13 that they understood what it meant to be king.

‘This is amazing.’

Blynn and the witch have ‘ability’.

“Leon. I had a hard time today.”

She greeted me in a friendly way after a few days.

“no. Julia suffered a lot. Thanks to you, it is ending quickly.”

The witch who became Hogang, Julia.

Her abilities were great.

“To check whether the blood has awakened one by one… … I think Leone is really great.”

What was really great in Leon’s eyes was her new ability.

“It was possible because you helped me with this. Otherwise, it would have taken much longer.”

Rion didn’t ride a wolf to get around.

“Are you okay?”

“It is the best. I never thought I could make something like this.”

Leone moved by flying on the orb.

“I’m slowly getting used to my abilities.”

“It’s a great ability.”

“It just gives things power.”

I said it humbly, but it was a great thing.

The ability to endow objects with certain powers, without magic circles or anything else.

It was a tremendous power, like the ‘blood line’ ability.

‘Well, though it needs power.’

Still, if it was a ball, it could fly freely in the sky.

At that time, Bliny poked out his head in Leon’s shadow.

“Blin! Leon! I’m back?”

Bliny’s ability was also miraculous.

‘Maybe, a new era will unfold more than I thought.’
