18. Strengthen your boudoir
1.
Seoul Ground Zero.
Located next to the grounds of the temple, where vegetation has grown under the power of Limen, is a controlled area due to energy pollution.
"I didn't expect the cleanup to be so far gone. Siu always exceeds expectations."
"That's a compliment. It's thanks to Limen's grace. Didn't you turn the Superlative Magic Gem Mine into a Holy Stone? The management department was also very helpful."
"No, sir. It was a right that should have been given to the Remen Church."
Team Leader Kim of the Talent Management Department let out an exclamation, and I smiled as I listened to his words.
As Kim said, most of the existing horsepower-contaminated areas had been decontaminated.
In other words, the cleanup is nearing its end.
The players sent by the Meister Guild Anarchy >, which Minsoo introduced to us last time, were also very helpful.
They were mining the Holy Stone much faster than we had expected.
According to Kang Ho, the head of the Guild of Anarchy >, most of the players who were able to mine enthusiastically volunteered for the mining work.
Rumors spread that he had been cured of his illness after working in the Sacred Stone Mine?
He's not wrong. The divine power emanating from the Sacred Stone Mines maximizes the natural resilience of humans.
"At this rate, we may be able to dismantle the Ark within this year."
Speaking of Arc, it is a huge barrier that surrounds Ground Zero in Seoul.
I looked at Team Leader Kim and insinuated.
"It looks like you want to dismantle it as soon as possible?"
"The arc is also a scar left in the heart of Seoul. If the Ark is dismantled and the cleansed Ground Zero is revealed, it will be another hope for the people. And what....... of all"
Kim cleared his throat a few times and then continued quietly.
"We'll be able to recycle the mithril that's in the arc."
"Alas, it's a matter of budget."
"There's an astronomical amount of money in the wall. As long as you can recycle and sell mithril, you can make a decent budget. The government of the Republic of Korea issued a large amount of government bonds to build the ARC."
In short, there are a lot of different interests involved.
The barrier, which was quite hideous at first glance, had a lot of connotations.
I nodded slowly as I looked at Team Leader Kim with a bitter smile.
"By the way, have you checked the information we have given you about Lee Se-hee?"
"Minister Yoo Seon Ho has personally confirmed the situation, and the Blue House has also been briefed. This is a possible involvement of China behind the attacks, and it is being taken very seriously at the top. Two days ago, the Chinese government made an informal protest."
Two days ago, before the terrorist attack, why did they clash with China?
Team Leader Kim noticed the doubts on my face and quickly cleared them up.
"Two days ago, the orc horde that Xiu had destroyed crossed the Yalu River and attacked the city of Dandong."
"Such a shame."
"The damage was small because we knew about it in advance, but the South Korean government demanded an official apology, saying that the damage was caused by not exterminating the orcs. In any case, that's why relations between our two countries are at their worst."
I couldn't help but smile at Kim's words.
"When was it good?"
"Of course not."
"But I'm worried about what happened because of me."
"You don't have to say that. Thanks to Siu, we were able to fend off the worst of the monster wave without any casualties. And we have no doubt that Siu's choice was the best choice. The rest of the problem is something we have to deal with."
I listened to Team Leader Kim and looked forward silently.
It's clear that the Purifier > are staying in China. In addition, through Lee Se-hee's testimony, we also learned that the demons are spread throughout Korea.
The last time he had contaminated the magic stone mine here, and the fact that he had pushed the orcs to South Korea, it was likely that they had something to do with it.
So, where exactly are the Baenmyung Bridges?
The fact that there are options open to Divinity players also means that they are a group that also has the potential for Holy Power.
"I don't know."
Those who slaughter people without hesitation, or those who are willing to sacrifice others for their own ends, are both scumbags by my standards.
One thing is for sure, in the end, both groups are destined to fight against us.
What we need to do now is to build up the denomination's strength and strength in preparation for the future.
And that's why I summoned Team Leader Kim here.
"Team Leader Kim. From now on, our denomination will also begin to develop players in earnest. I've heard that Christianity and Buddhism have already begun."
I've heard that established religions have begun training Divinity-affiliated players at academies run by their respective religious foundations.
We can't lose.
Kim nodded.
"It's a good thing. Are you saying that you will set up your own foundation in the Remen Church to run the Awoken Academy? Then we can look for the academy site."
"Oh, not really."
I grinned and snapped my fingers lightly.
Woooo
Soon, light spread out to the side of the temple, and soon two buildings resembling medieval Gothic styles quickly appeared.
[You have purchased the Facility Paladin HQ Lv.1> using 10,000 Holy Points, and as of this time, the Vocation Apprentice Paladin > will be unlocked.] [You have purchased the Monastery Lv.1> using 7,000 Holy Points, and as of this time, the Acolyte Priest > will be unlocked.]

I've spent all my Holy Points so far, but I have no regrets.
These were buildings that should have been built long ago.
"Great...... That's it."
Kim looked at the two buildings with a dazed expression.
It's amazing to see two beautiful structures come to life right in front of you.
It's an ability that Remen was able to unleash thanks to his pact with Earth's system, but it's his ability anyway.
"I've heard that there aren't many Divinity players at the moment. For the time being, we're going to continue to grow our players here. So, we need help from the government."
"Feel free to speak."
"Even if you're a Divinity player, I think you should complete the basic Awoken program. That's why I'd like to establish a sisterhood with the National Awoger Academies and get a little help."
The Remen Church is not a denomination that encourages fanatics.
What we recommend is a gentle harmony with the world. Teaching them how to use holy power is the best thing in the world, but developing players is another matter.
Therefore, the help of experts was essential. And it just so happened that the experts were nearby.
"I've heard that the National Academy of Awakeners in Seoul is much better than other private academies...... Oh, I'm not asking you to accept the members of our denomination unconditionally. If you feel overwhelmed by my request, you can forget about it. Well, it's a little sad. Haha!"
"......."
"It's never, ever raw. Don't get me wrong. I just think that such a relationship will be a bridge between the Remen Church and the government of the Republic of Korea in the future. Hahaha!"
That's enough for you.
I smiled and looked at Team Leader Kim, who nodded his head vigorously, breaking into a cold sweat.
"I...... Dear Minister Yoo...... Well said...... I'll give it to you."
"Again, I believed it. Would you like to go inside the temple and have a cup of tea? Our Leo gets out of one of the cars in a big way. Come on, let's go."
"Yes......."
Isn't trust sprouting in the affection that comes and goes?
That's what really strengthens the inner workings, Cancer.
2.
Kim promised a positive answer and left.
I've heard that your position in the department has improved considerably since we first met, probably because you're trusted by Minister Yoo Seon-ho.
It's good to have a lot of power in people who are friendly to you.
If you cross the line, you may be labeled as colluding with the political circles, but it is only if you cross the line.
It's okay to keep a reasonable distance and maintain a good relationship.
"I don't think there's going to be a lot of players to take care of yet. So let's take care of it for a while."
"For the time being...... I heard that this is a phrase that unscrupulous bosses use a lot. Well, it's not hard to teach anyway."
"Is it easy?"
"Absolutely. Paladins are supposed to be strong by fighting hardship and adversity, and you only have to roll them to the point where you die. When I was in charge of disciplining the new Knights, I threw them into the Devil's Den, but I don't know.......
Luna proudly tells the story of how she pushed the newcomers into the abyss of evil with her own hands.
She felt like wishing the aspiring paladins she was going to take on the role of well-wishers.
"So, those who want to be priests are in charge of Leo, and those who want to be paladins are in charge of Luna? Do you have any objections?"
"Yes."
"All right, Your Holiness."
I'm sure Divinity players don't have much hands.
As long as the system exists, they will grow well on their own.
What we need to provide them with is an opportunity to develop their faith and knowledge of divine power.
If they meet those two things, they will be able to grow rapidly with the power of the system.
I was proof of that.
"Okay, we've solved the problem with new players."
Now let's move on to the next one.
"I can summon a relic."
The newly updated Relic category with the extinction of the Otherworldly Godhead>
I've been so busy since I got it that I haven't been able to check it properly, but now was the right time to check the Relic system properly.
As the myths contained in each relic are different, so are the effects of the relic.
Of course, there is no choice but to look forward to it.
"What?"
But I couldn't help but be speechless as I stared at the message window that popped up in front of me.
[Currently, you can summon 1 random Relic > of the Remen Cult to Earth via Command: Relic Summoning>.]
“…… Probabilistic items?"
I sighed as I looked at the message window in front of me. I never thought it would be applied in this way.
Sensing that I'm confused, the system kindly adds an explanation.
[It was determined that summoning the desired relic would be a gross violation of the > of causality, so we were forced to apply the > of randomness.]
In short, it's a restriction that threatens to disrupt the balance significantly.......
Why does this apply to a place like this?
"Your Holiness. What's wrong with your face?"
"Just. That's how I feel."
Somehow, things went too well.
I looked at the message window nervously, then let out another deep sigh.
The Remen Cult is the oldest denomination in Eden, and its relics are innumerable.
Priests like Leo memorize the types, but there were a lot of holy relics that I didn't know about.
I remember that there were a few relics that I couldn't even know why they were called relics.
What if one of those relics is summoned?
“…… Oh, no way."
He's the pope of a denomination, so how could he be so unlucky?
Who knows, though.
"Hey guys. Pray."
"Suddenly?"
"Do it if you want to."
I'll do everything I can.
At my command, Luna and Leo reluctantly clasped their hands together and closed their eyes, and I looked at them and nodded.
He uttered the command in a very deliberate voice.
"Summon Relics."
Paaaa
[Relic Points> summons 1 random Relic > of the Remen Cult to Dimension System: Earth >. Causality > approves this summon.]
The burst of light lasted about three seconds, and I stared at it and said to myself:
"Did you open it?"
I don't even want to reach the highest level of Remen's Token >.
It could be the Sacred Bastion, the shield used by the first paladin> or the Covenant Bracelet with the power of > powerful perm.
As long as it's just weird, it doesn't matter......
[Relic Beginning Branch > summoned.]
What?
“…… Twigs?"
