Chapter 1 (1/2)
Siu
He needed strength
The strength to save his family from the detestable bandits
He needed an unrivaled power that could wipe out every one of them
So he went to the ‘De’
The ‘De’, as sealed within the darkest parts of a certain mountain
I went to get power from him
The ‘De very well at the moment, and asked a question
[You want my power, kid?]
“Yes”
The guy laughed at my answer
After laughing for quite a while, he asked me a different question
[What can you give ive my power to you?]
Nothing was ever free
I was young, but I already knew about this back then
I looked at the ‘De’ and bowed towards him
“……Anything As long as I can get the power to destroy the”
[Anything……]
The ‘Deers and spoke with an amused expression
He stretched his hand, and spoke while touching my forehead
[What’s your na boy?]
“……Gongson Chun Gi”
[Alright, Gongson Chun Gi Your wish is granted]
I didn’t know back then
I didn’t knohat this event meant
When I knew about the truth in the future
I dedicated ’
– About the De
Found froson Chun Gi
A suspicious young man whose eyes were covered by his hair
That man stroked his smooth chin, and spoke
“I would like to know the first i lord”
“First impressions……”
The old ht
He soon reached a satisfactory answer, and spoke
“He was good At first…… It’s obvious, right? No matter what others say, his talent forYou know it too, don’t you?”
When the man nodded, the oldunpleasant
“But what does itinsane things, doesn’t he? Right?”
When the old , the man smiled a bit for some reason
He was surprised
‘They’re really all the same’
All the Guardians that taught the third young lord all had the same reaction as this old man
At first, he was surprised, but now, these reactions were si
The youngdoith an interested face
“What’s that? Is that the thing the Pope talked about?”
“Yes”
The thing that would change the future of the church
Based on the information here, the future heir would be chosen
“Phew, please write properly in there If a guy like that becomes the Pope of the church, we’d be ruined”
The man faintly smiled, and nodded
Everything was just about ready now
But the strange thing was his heart
‘According to the original plan, I should be gathering information to drive out the third master……’
Strangely, thelord
No, thelord
So thelord so that it would look a little better
‘Things would get interesting for a while’
The man put down the brush, and smiled
To be truthful, he still didn’t knowmaster
He was just i master would be like based on what others had said
And in his ant person who just did things as he pleased
‘What kind of a person is he?’
A few days after investigating
The ination previously
And the young lord turned out to bethan expected
Red hair, with a red beard
A ed man with a powerful aura about him
ThisMoon Chun
And thein front of the Pope
Looking at the man, whose eyes were hidden by his hair, the Pope spoke
“Siu”
“Yes”
“You finished investigating?”
“Yes”
He had enough information
The proble at the inforathered
“Hoh? May I read it?”
“Of course, your holiness”
Siu gave the data he collected to the pope
The Pope skimmed over the data, and smiled
“Kuku, you investigated quite thoroughly, unlike the other guys You’re quite meticulous”
Siu smiled aardly, and scratched the back of his head
The Pope finished ski that time, and spoke
“You’re the only one left out of thirty Did you know that?”
“Yes It seems I came a little too late”
Siu tried s at the pope
Bang Moon Chun, as looking at Siu’s face with an amused expression, talked
“Aren’t you being too careful? Just choose randomly”
Siu scratched the back of his head, and spoke
“The person I’ to be someone I’ll serve for my entire life, so I want to choose carefully”
“Choose carefully…… well, you are right Couys were the ones that chose too quickly”
Bang Moon Chun srabbed the teacup in front of him
And asked Siu a question
“By the ho’s the one that’syou hesitate so much? Is it the second? Or is it the third child?”
Siu hesitated
He didn’t know if he should answer truthfully or not
When he saw Bang Moon Chun’s eyes, however, Siu sighed inwardly
He couldn’t just try to avoid the question, especially after he saw the glint of curiosity in the Pope’s eyes
“It’s the third lord”
“Hoh? The third? You have that trouble child, Gongson Chun Gi, weighing in your mind?”
“Yes”
Siu made an embarrassed face
Right now, the first young lord had the highest chance of beco the next Pope
No, it was aluaranteed
Because of that, any sane person would just choose the first young lord
‘But……’
For so about
Siu paused for a while, then put his head up to look at Bang Moon Chun
“In son Chun Gi suits the position of the heir more”
“That’s not so that you can determine Of course, I can’t determine that either”
Bang Moon Chun’s face had a playful expression on it
Then, as if he had suddenly thought of so at Siu with a sorrowful face
“It would be interesting to see how everything unfolds later on…… but to you, all this would probably a very hard path to follow The first really isn’t someone you can have as an enemy, after all”
“……Yes Probably”
Siu’s face immediately darkened
It would be hard to fend off the attacks fro lords alone
But he didn’t regret his decision
“But it looks like you ood It seems that the third doesn’t have no luck at all”
Bang Moon Chun looked at Siu, pat the ly, and stood up
“Don’t you still have so up a little during that time”
Siu saw off the Pope with a bitter smile on his face
After looking at the Pope’s departing figure, Siu shed
He sohts to the pope
‘Should I have thought a little more carefully……’
No o lay with the first lord
Thatthe heir, and he also had a lot of support from everyone
‘The second lord ood choice, as well……’
If he stuck with the second lord, he would have to face many adversities, but it would be doable
The et when the lord becomes the Pope
But the lord he chose in the end was the weakest one, the one that didn’t even get recognized by everyone It was Gongson Chun Gi, the third lord
“damn it, I don’t even know anymore……”
Siu dropped down onto his bed, and closed his eyes
He already made a choice, and he couldn’t reverse it
He’ll have to do his best from now on
Just… the fact that he chose Gongson Chun Gi without even seeing the lord’s face bothered him a little
“He finally made his choice?”
“Yes, lord”
“Who’d he choose?”
The young man with a cold aura about him
He looked at his henchman in front of him with a bored face, and asked a question
His henchman answered without hesitation
The young man smiled at his henchman’s attitude
“The guy probably went for the second Was he called Siu? That guy’s pretty du the leader of the Black Reaper Corps”
The suppressing aura that emanated from the whole body
The ly aura was called Jun Yoon Su
He was the first apprentice to the pope, and was known as the Bloodwind Demon in the martial world
The man in front of Jun Yoon Su spoke with a troubled voice
“……He went for the third lord”
