Chapter 50

    He was a person who worked for the Rizes Church. He was not a true believer of the Rizes Church, but a victim of their exploitation.


    But after a certain incident, he sacrificed his life to use a forbidden curse.


    The curse grew by devouring the humans who were turned into monsters by the Rizes Church.


    The curse quickly spread over the entire Bahano Kingdom. Red rain began to fall from the sky, and everyone who was hit by it died as their bodies melted. It was the same for those who took shelter in buildings. The red rain melted everything, including the buildings. And it didn''t stop.


    The red rain that started in the Bahano Kingdom spread beyond the kingdom to the continent.


    Because of the rain, countless people died, and it became a disaster that was recorded in history.


    ''But that''s only if I didn''t arrive in the Bahano Kingdom before winter.''


    I was going to stop the disaster before that.


    "After hearing Kyros''s story, I also decided to go to Bahano willingly."


    As I affirmed it, Zain''s expression twisted even more.


    A message popped up at the same time.


    [Subquest activated!]


    [Subquest ''Light of Hope'' 1. <Finding the Light>


    Content: The God of Beauty Kyros is saddened by the chaotic situation of the Bahano Kingdom. Please stop the impending disaster in the Bahano Kingdom for the sake of the God of Beauty Kyros.


    Goal: Reach Aldone Kingdom, near Bahano Kingdom, within a month (This quest is a linked quest)


    Sess: Find the next quest clue


    Failure: -


    Final Sess Reward: ???


    [Do you ept?]


    [Yes/No]


    The timing of the quest activation was amazing. By the way, this quest was originally a main quest in Dominance Law.


    But I have a different main quest right now, so it appeared as a subquest. Anyway, all I had to do was revive Kyros Church.


    ''It''s a win-win situation since I was going to go anyway.''


    Anyway, even without the quest, I would have gone to Bahano. There was something I had to get there.


    After epting the quest, I was curious about the final reward. Why is it a question mark? Was it because the reward was experience points in Dominance Law?


    I could get what I wanted from Bahano directly, so I didn''t really care about the quest reward.


    "Master."


    As I was thinking about that, Zain asked me with a serious face.


    "...I''m going too, right?"


    I smiled brightly.


    "Of course you are."


    "Damn..."


    Zain''s shoulders sagged.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    After dering that I would go to Bahano, I moved busily.


    I took care of the temple affairs and made various potions for three days. I squeezed out my divine power and made healing potions in advance, and also made antidotes and transformation potions for any possible situations.


    [Master, Master.]


    As I finished making potions and put the remaining herbs in my inventory. Alphius''s urgent call came.


    "What''s up, Alphi?"


    [Um, your brother is here.]


    Did I hear wrong?


    "Can you say that again?"


    [Your brother. Sevenus Holden is visiting the temple!]


    What, Sevenus? Did hee to see me?


    [He wants to see you! Well, actually Levilof Holden!]


    Oh no. Damn.


    I quickly finished tidying up and changed into my master''s robe. As I pressed the priest''s robe that I had put in my inventory beforehand, my appearance changed.


    The official priest''s robe of Kyros Church that was made recently was made by Sasha herself. It was white with a simr shape to the master''s robe, but less shy.


    ''Why did hee?''


    I checked that no one was around as I left the master''s room and took off my sses.


    And then I hurried to the reception room.


    Why did Sevenuse all of a sudden? I couldn''t understand it at all.


    Knock knock.


    As I opened the door of the reception room after knocking, Sevenus was sitting upright. Long time no see.


    "Levi."


    Sevenus jumped up from his seat as soon as he saw meing in. And he came over with his long legs and hugged me.


    Why is he doing this?


    I felt embarrassed but hugged him back slightly and stepped back. Then Sevenus looked at me intently.


    "Brother, you''re here?"


    I smiled politely, but Sevenus''s eyes seemed strange somehow.


    "Why did you lose so much weight?"


    "...What?"


    Did he say I lost weight? I''m still the same.


    ---If anything, my face seems fuller.


    Kyros also said he couldn''t understand it.


    "Is the temple food bad?"


    "No, no. I''m eating well."


    "No way. Your face is so thin. This won''t do. I have to contact mother-"


    "Hey, Brother! I''m really fine. Come on, sit down."


    I pulled Sevenus''s arm. Why is he so strong? Fortunately, he followed me and sat down on the chair voluntarily.


    I sat down opposite him and sighed inwardly, but didn''t lose my smile.


    "By the way, how have you been, Brother?"


    "I''m fine. But you..."


    He was about to say something about my weight again, so I cut him off.


    "More importantly, what brings you here?"


    Just tell me what you want and go back, you brat.


    "I just came to see your face. I haven''t seen you for a while..."


    ...Is this for real? Did he really juste? No way.


    I picked up the teacup in front of me and put it to my mouth. I had to drink some tea to ease the awkwardness.


    "Is that wicked master not making you suffer?"


    I almost spat out the tea I was drinking. Sevenus stared at me with a serious face. Did he really mean it? Did he call me wicked?


    "The master is not wicked. He''s a good person. He cured my illness, remember?"


    "That may be true, but... from my perspective, he''s nothing but a bastard who stole my only brother."


    Did you really think of me like that? I was speechless.


    ---What a tearful brotherly love.


    ''Didn''t you hear him cursing the master of Kyros Church?''


    ---Technically, that''s you, my dear.


    ''I have nothing to say to that.''


    I closed my mouth in disbelief, and Sevenus took a sip of his tea and opened his mouth.


    "But I''ll try to understand, since it''s what you wanted."


    "Ah, yes..."


    "And mother misses you a lot, so you should visit her sometime."


    "Yes. I will."


    I''ll go to the mansionter.


    "But... Brother, why did you reallye here?"


    Just tell me what you want and go back, you brat.


    "Didn''t I tell you? I just came to see you."


    I was stunned by his answer. Really? Seriously? He came all the way to the temple just to see me? I couldn''t believe it.


    "Now that I''ve seen your face, I''m satisfied."


    Sevenus said that and got up from his seat as if he was going to leave. I quickly followed him, and Sevenus smiled faintly.


    "I''m sorry, I wanted to stay with you longer."


    "No, it''s fine."


    "Always eat well, and if you ever get bored or can''t stand the temple life,e back anytime."


    He didn''t stop talking as we walked out of the reception room.


    "Your room is always ready for you."


    "Yes, Brother. I understand."


    In the end, Sevenus didn''t forget to worry about me until he reached the temple entrance where the knights were waiting.


    "Come again next time. And don''t forget to write letters."


    He asked me after he got on his horse. Letters, I haven''t written a single one yet. Do I have to?


    "Take care, Levi."


    With that, Sevenus left with the knights. I watched his back until he disappeared from sight.


    It was a short and brief encounter, but somehow my heart felt strange. A weird feeling of being warm and restless at the same time.


    Is this what family is like?


    I surprisinglyughed.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Two dayster. It was finally the day of departure.


    As before, when I went to Beon Mountain, I set the dawn as the departure time.


    That way, I could avoid the eyes of the believers when I left the temple.


    "Master, please be careful ande back safely. And call us anytime!"


    "Don''t worry, Alphi."


    "I-if it gets dangerous, please call me."


    "Yeah, I will. Chessy."


    "...Have a safe trip."


    "Thank you, Sasha."


    I left the temple with the children''s farewell. It might take a long time this time, but they would take good care of the temple.


    I put on the hood of my robe and headed for the back alley. asionally, I saw some Kyros Church believers. They were early morning prayers.


    ---How admirable they are.


    ''I agree.''


    Until a few months ago, this ce was a temple of Rizes Church, and now it became the main branch of Kyros Church, and now the believers'' feet never stopped. I felt nostalgic for a moment.


    ''Is this what they call dawn sentiment?''


    I didn''t have time to indulge in sentimentality. I moved quickly to the back alley.


    Zain was waiting for me near the secret shop. He waved his arm brightly as he saw me and I approached him with quick steps.


    "Why do we always go alone?"


    Zain grumbled.


    "The kids have other ways, but you don''t."


    "That''s because they''re special!"


    Zain seemed to realize it too. The kids who appeared wherever I called them using the space gap, who were stronger than adult men by several times, who had abilities specialized in each field. I didn''t bother to exin it to Zain, but he seemed to have noticed that they were born by Kyros''s power.


    "What I mean is why do you always take me with you?"


    "Do you want me to go alone?"


    "Wouldn''t that be morefortable for you?"


    "No. Not at all."


    "Why?"


    "It''s convenient to have a handyman around."


    Zain pouted at my words. I smiled and took out a money pouch from my pocket and handed it to him.


    "I always pay you generously, what are youining about?"


    "Oh, thank you. How can Iin! No, not at all. I was just saying!"


    Zain''s attitude changed as soon as he got the money. This money-grubber.


    We finished our short conversation and headed for the carriage that was waiting nearby.


    It was much more luxurious than the one Zain had preparedst time. It was a natural choice since we had to travel a long way. The ride quality of the carriage that I paid extra for was quite good.


    It was inferior to the Holden family''s, but it was still a high-quality product.


    I leaned back on the seat of the carriage, and Zain sat across from me. He looked out the window and smiled brightly.


    "By the way, I never thought I''d go to Bahano Kingdom with you."


    "Me neither."


    "I always wanted to go there, but I didn''t expect to go like this."


    He was smiling until a moment ago, but he soon became gloomy.


    "It won''t be that hard."


    I tried tofort him.


    Unfortunately, my words were a lie. Jain would have a hard time. And more than Zain, I... would have a harder time.


    "Hoo."


    I sighed involuntarily.


    As I thought about the future that would unfold, the carriage started to move.
