Chapter 276

D-Day

Chi-Woo woke up when hit by the dawn’s light anda hly fro ready to leave, his heart thu before leaving

—Hey Chi-Woo, lethis belongings, Philip suddenly talked to hioods there? What happened to your handy bag?

Chi-Woo asked what Philip was talking about and lifted the bag he was packing with

—No, not that bag

It was then Chi-Woo realized what Philip was referring to—Steam Bun They hadn’t seen Steam Bun for a while now, and it was natural that Philip would be curious about its whereabouts Chi-Woo’s expression turned to norht:

‘It went off to live a new life’

—Huh? Suddenly? Without saying anything?

Philip tilted his head

—Even though you brought it here so that it could live the rest of its life however it wanted, it had always stayed by your side before

‘That’s not what I htly, and his hands slowed For some reason, he seemed conflicted

‘Do you knohat happened to Goddess Kabbalah?’

—Kabbalah? Well, she…

Philip looked taken aback by Chi-Woo’s unexpected question Why was Chi-Woo otten now?

‘Did you know that after the last war, Shalyh had been changed from Kabbalah’s temple to the White Horse General’s?’

—Uh, yeah, I knew about that What happened then?

‘She disappeared’

—What? Why?

‘Since she became unnecessary after the White Horse General’s appearance’

—But still…

Philip thought he heard wrong and trailed off He couldn’t believe it at first, but the ht about it, the more it ht now? It was simple There were twoa Godly territory and acting as a patron for heroes through the growth systeue needed a God with power suitable for their current situation; considering that, they didn’t need a God of so like love or philanthropy In accordance, it was only inevitable that White Horse General would be popular Siain powers that gave thees over the Demon Empire

Then as the case for Kabbalah? Besides the White Horse General, what her powers could contribute to the current situation was even uhbus’s God, Mainally a God of an evil nature She almost disappeared when she beca Balal, as of good nature Her original goal was to become a nein Goddess, but that attempt failed because the Salem Academy separated from Liber before her followers could turn Balal into a God Chi-Woo ed to revive her somehow, but Balal was still not in her complete form And, as expected, Kabal beca one with the incomplete Balal

The Deht Of course, their enemies became helpless after Chi-Woo revealed his secret card, the White Horse General, but not all of his allies could rejoice about it The fact that all attention was on the White Horse General arded It was then Philip realized why Chi-Woo looked so conflicted Gods were existences who lived on beliefs; those who didn’t receive beliefs faded into oblivion In a way, Chi-Woo was the one who caused Kabbalah to disappear again even though that wasn’t what he intended

—So does that ain?

‘Rather than that, she chose to back away herself’

—Huh?

‘And for that, I made a pro Did Kabal not realize that all these things were going to happen? No, she knew She easily predicted that after the White Horse General’s eence, her place on Liber would become very small, so small that she could almost disappear But in the end, she had no choice Whatever way she thought about it, it was a situation where she had to back away Thus, she made leeway for herself in the form of a promise with Chi-Woo It was then Philip realized that this promise was related to Steam Bun, who had been absent these days

—I don’t really knohat’s going on exactly, but I guess thatnor Kabbalah?

‘Yes’

—Can we see those two again someday?

Chi-Woo didn’t immediately reply He stayed silent for a while and looked back at Philip with a very faint smile

‘I hope we can But this is the path they chose out of their oill…’

—Okay I got it I’ Let’s see theh he still had loads more questions, Philip didn’t press Chi-Woo would soon leave for an expedition He had the i his expedition team this time, and Philip didn’t want to disturb Chi-Woo’s already full head with s to think about

The four of them—Chi-Woo, Ru Amuh, Evelyn, and Hawa—left their zones with Eshnunna and Byeok seeing thehtly surprised when he arrived at the city gates He thought he had arrived quite early, but the rest of the team was already there—Euys caht you would,” Chi-Woo res Though there were so for the first time, they had all heard plenty about each other and didn’t need introductions—save for one person
