CHAPTER 5: THE LIARS SMILE – PART 1

Present – December 28, 1926

On the sa was happening at the Ismo Republic

The Overseer of Paradise Minth Chezine was snoring during dayti on an old sofa

“Advisor Please wake up, Advisor”

A female voice came from overhead Minth opened his eyes The old lady hired to serve him tea stood up with a pout

“What is it, I had a good nap Just shut up”

Minth said while rubbing his eyes

“There are visitors from the bank Please don’t sleep in the parlor”

“I have no choice then”

The room referred to as the parlor was a small room that had two sofas and a table in it The furniture seelance, but was actually made of cheap items

Minth left the roo around

It has been nine months since he left Bantorra Library His body that used to be id face also lost soe

Ever since he assumed office as the Overseer of Paradise, Minth spent his days doing nothing related to battle

The Advisor to the charitable organization “Margent Huress Foundation” This was Minth’s official, public title

“Even advisors unexpectedly have no work to do”

Whilethis, Minth looked out of the

This was the outskirts of the Republic’s capital, Morarl City He was in a rooo Outside the , as if leaving the traces of the so-called pioneering area, spread a dusty-looking townscape

Froht the third and second floor out of his own pocket He used the second floor as the Foundation’s offices and the third floor as his apartment

The first floor was the office of a certain lawyer On the fourth floor was a s company that imported soap and other cosmetics from the Principality of Rona Both of the God Cult

A si This was the headquarters of the New Indulging God Cult created by Minth

For those who remembered the old Cult, this would only seem to be one of its secret bases They would suspect that the real headquarters were at a different place and that this was nothing e

But it was not true This was unmistakably the headquarters and there were no other bases anywhere

It was far too small and populous when co God Cult caught the big shots of the financial and political world and controlled the world from the shadows Yet noas cra

“Shall I take a break?”

Minth lit a cigarette He stopped s the tiot back to it

To stave off his boredoh the documents on his desk It was a suanization Minth served as an advisor to

Officially, the Margent Huress Foundation worked to support various activities related to the developanization that worked freely with ideas To put it in a worse way, he had no idea what they were doing

For the nor like a hobby project that was created using his wealth after he retired as an Armed Librarian a rich person

Their activities were various They cooperated with maintenance of public order in certain districts, donated funds for the education of poor children, aided the funding of scientists’ resea

rch, all sorts of these worthless things

Their real goal was, of course, creating the Books of happy people they could bring to Heaven However, their actual as no different than one of a charity organization

“Not bad”

Minth returned the documents to the file

At present they were a s God Cult This wasn’t the result of failure nor was the Cult in theThis was the new Cult Minth had been ai for

He didn’t want to create happiness while controlling the world from the shadows Even without money, even without political authority, even without military power, he could create Books of happy people

Thus Minth believed And he was putting it into practice

“Hmm?”

He found an unfamiliar envelope on the messy desk When he saw its sender he remembered It was an invitation to the customary Armed Librarians’ party

“I have soone?”

Minthof it, the party was that very saoing

“Ah well Seeing Matt and Hary”

He threw the envelope on top of the desk Pressing his cigarette against the ashtray, Minth suddenly thought back on what happened during the last year He thought of the new Indulging God Cult he had built as the Overseer of Paradise

March 1926

Minth, having been appointed to be the new Overseer of Paradise, had some doubts

He was about to continue the wicked, repulsive Indulging God Cult by his own hands He was going to become the leader of the very opponent that they had worked so hard on crushi+ng Any decent person would have doubts

However, Minth knew the truth about Heaven He also knew that they could not oppose the mission to produce the Books of happy people He could not run away

Therefore, he decided to change his way of thinking

Until now, the Indulging God Cult was an evil organization So all Minth had to do was create a good organization

It was certainly possible And that was the job handed to Minth Gradually he threw his doubts away, and began devoting himself to his job as the Overseer of Paradise

When he was an Armed Librarian, Minth used his Sacred Eyes to seek out and eliminate the followers of the Cult

His eyes were able to differentiate between bad and good people Most of the folloere people who indulged in their desires and lost their conscience

But not all of theainst Kachua’s ideology and escaped the Indulging God Cult He kept those a secret froet away

After assu office as the Overseer of Paradise, Minth searched and assembled these people He revealed the true mission of the Cult that was concealed by Kachua andonly several dozens of these people, Minth founded the New Indulging God Cult

The only one to possess any fighting ability was Minth They had neither a gun nor a sword But that was not a proble power

What he looked for next were True Men

The thing required to be a True Man was a certain kind of pure heart They had to have no doubts about granting their desires or their way of living Unless people were like that, they would not be able to achieve true happiness from the bottom of their heart

People like Cigal were certainly pure Because they were pure, they were able to act brutally without any hesitation There were plenty of people like Cigal a the True Men of the past

Minth had no intention of welco such people as True Men They had to be people with both a pure heart and a conscience

Finding such people was hard People ere truly good were even hout his entire life, the only person like that Minth had knoas Noloty

But no matter how rare and precious they were, he had to look for them Because it was his job

Wandering around the world, Minth began finding such people

December 15, 1926

Minth left his office in Ismo and boarded a private plane It was so he could see how his newly found True Men were doing

In nine months he found three True Men It was not too fast of a pace

He went to the ion Minth found one of the True Men at the foot of the towering mountain

He was a man with a suntanned skin colored dark brown and a robust body He was dressed in heavy, durable cliear His name was Garlze

“Yo, I came to see you off”

“Ah, so you’ve come, Overseer of Paradise”

Garlze said while looking at the top of the mountain Minth also looked up to the heavens
