My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

In front of an apartment entrance.

“Thank you for your cooperation, Sister.”

“Oh, it was no trouble at all, Priestess.”

“May God’s blessings be with you.”

“Yes, thank you.”

The young priestess smiled warmly and bowed. The middle-aged woman standing before her returned the bow awkwardly.

As the priestess left and headed towards the parking lot, she got into the back seat of a waiting car.

Vroom—

As the car smoothly pulled away, she picked up a tablet lying on the seat next to her and reviewed the data within.

-…

-Estimated specs of White Knight. (See details)

-Based on inquiries with returnees from various dimensions regarding holy power, the Main God of Auterica is the most likely source. (See full interview transcripts)

-Assuming a potential connection with a specific patient, related individuals have been interviewed. (Current progress: 28%)

-…

“Hmm.”

She frowned slightly, tilting her head in thought.

She was the leader of Pantheon’s Korean branch investigation team, tasked with tracking down the White Knight. She made a few notes on the tablet, then put it aside and closed her eyes.

‘…He’s truly remarkable.’

She recalled the lingering traces of holy power she had sensed from the recovered patient, now discharged from the hospital, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe.

‘How deep must his faith be?’

She had already been stunned by the sheer scale of his holy power on the day of the terrorist attack, sensing it even from a distance.

But examining its remnants up close was a different experience.

The more she investigated, the more she respected and admired him.

‘Not just the quantity, but the purity as well. It’s as if it’s been refined through unwavering faith. How can he wield such power on Earth…?’

She was a high-ranking priestess in her origin dimension, but she was no match for the White Knight.

Even in her own world, she couldn’t imagine anyone wielding such power, except perhaps a divine apostle chosen by God.

‘I’d like to meet him.’

That was her main reason for volunteering to lead the investigation.

She was driven by curiosity, a desire to understand what kind of person could perform such a miracle.

Of course, there were other, more practical reasons as well.

‘Someone like him could become Pantheon’s new leader…’

Clerics were highly valued on Earth, their healing abilities essential in this age of dimensional disasters.

The restrictions on holy power made them even more valuable than in other worlds.

But the real problem wasn’t external, but internal.

“Haa…”

She sighed, rubbing her face.

Her smooth, flawless skin, a blessing from her holy power, had been breaking out lately due to stress.

‘…The conflict between factions is getting out of hand.’

It was an unavoidable consequence of Pantheon’s diverse membership.

Unlike ordinary religions, where followers shared a common faith, Pantheon’s clerics worshipped different gods with different doctrines.

Even though they excluded those who followed evil gods, their differing values inevitably led to friction and conflict.

‘If someone who could unite us appeared…’

They might be able to overcome their internal struggles.

Then they could focus their energy on more productive endeavors, contributing to society’s well-being.

‘And we can’t let another country have him.’

Pantheon was a global alliance, so even the headquarters in the US wasn’t a superior authority, just a representative.

They would cooperate with other branches’ requests, but they weren't obligated to blindly obey.

She reviewed the reports from her team, displayed on the tablet, and renewed her resolve.

And then, after some time,

Ding!

A notification sound. An urgent message had arrived through her messenger app.

She glanced at it, her eyes widening in surprise, and then—

Screech—!

The car she was in swerved sharply, tires squealing, changing direction.

Fortunately, there were no other cars nearby.

The driver floored the accelerator.

Vroom—!

Their destination was the location mentioned in the message.

A university hospital in Seoul, where the White Knight had reportedly appeared.

____________________

A warm light enveloped the surroundings.

Whoosh—

It wasn't limited to a few meters.

It spread outwards, encompassing the entire lobby, then reaching further, higher, until it bathed the entire children's hospital in a soft, warm glow.

It was a miracle, a manifestation of hope.

An embodiment of compassion, soothing the suffering of the patients within.

‘I might as well do it properly.’

Despite its gentle appearance, the high-density holy power contained an overwhelming energy, triggering immediate changes.

Recovery, healing, regeneration.

Those within its range could feel its effects instantly.

“Ah…”

“…God! Thank you! Thank you!”

“Whoa! Mommy, this is amazing! It’s so warm. Hehe!”

The reactions varied.

Some wept silently, overwhelmed by emotion. Others clasped their hands together in prayer. And the children, oblivious to the gravity of the situation, simply giggled and smiled.

But despite their different responses, they all shared a common action.

They stared, their gazes fixed on the source of the miracle.

A figure standing in the center of the lobby, bathed in a brilliant light.

A noble saint, clad in sleek, white armor, his hands resting on the hilt of a beautiful sword planted in the ground.

The White Knight, Heinrich.

“Ah…”

“…”

They stared, mesmerized, unable to speak.

Unlike before, when they had cried out for his help, they now stood at a distance, their voices hushed, their movements stilled.

Like admiring a precious work of art.

‘This is… effective. Now then…’

As everyone stood frozen, lost in awe,

Tap— Tap—

A small figure broke the silence.

“S… Sua?”

A tiny girl, no older than six or seven, dressed in an oversized hospital gown, slowly walked towards Heinrich.

She had left her wheelchair behind, her father trailing behind her.

‘She’s the first to move, even though the adults are frozen?’

The middle-aged man, her father, followed her with hurried steps, his face a mixture of anxiety and awe.

He seemed hesitant to interrupt her, watching her with concern.

Having reached Heinrich, the little girl looked up at him, her eyes wide and bright.

And then, in a small voice, she asked.

“…Are you an angel?”

Her tone was questioning, but her eyes held a certain conviction, as if she had already made up her mind.

“Are you here to take Sua because she’s been a good girl?”

Her next words, however, were completely unexpected.

Heinrich, and even her father behind her, froze.

“…Can’t I stay a little longer? I haven’t said goodbye to everyone yet…”

She fidgeted with her fingers, glancing up at him.

What was going on in that little head of hers?

But Heinrich, sensing her condition despite the holy power she had received, understood.

‘Hmm.’

He looked down at her, then slowly knelt, lowering himself to her eye level.

And as he did so, he noticed his own reflection in her large, innocent eyes.

‘Right, this is more effective.’

He reached up and removed his helmet.

Swish—

His silver hair, freed from its confines, cascaded down, scattering the light from the overhead lamps and the holy aura that surrounded him.

“Gasp!”

“…”

And as his hair shimmered, those who had been holding their breath gasped softly.

Heinrich brushed his hair back, his golden eyes softening as he met the little girl’s gaze.

His handsome, otherworldly features, enhanced by the lighting and the dramatic reveal, left a lasting impression.

He reached out to pat her head, then paused, retracting his hand.

He removed his metal gauntlet and gently stroked her hair with his bare hand.

“Hee hee…”

The little girl giggled shyly, her face flushing.

Heinrich smiled gently, channeling his holy power through his hand, offering her a blessing and additional healing.

“I’ll wait. Until Sua grows up. Whenever you’re ready.”

“…Really? Even if it takes a long, long time?”

“Yes, but you have to keep receiving treatment, okay? Then you can live to be a hundred.”

“A… A hundred?”

She blinked, her eyes darting around, as if trying to comprehend the number.

He chuckled softly, then stood up, removing his hand from her head.

He gestured to her father, who had been watching them with tears in his eyes, and the man quickly picked up his daughter, bowing repeatedly.

The little girl, still giggling, waved goodbye.

She was… endearing.

‘An unexpected event, but…’

Heinrich put his helmet back on and looked around.

It had been more effective than he had anticipated.

‘It wasn’t as large-scale as during the terrorist attack, but the healing effect is still significant.’

He had attracted attention, revealed his face, and spread his holy power.

Now, all that remained was…

He spoke, his voice resonating with divine power.

“May those who suffer find comfort, and those in need find salvation…”

The Main God of Auterica didn’t have a name.

He was the Creator, the one and only.

But in other dimensions, he could be referred to…

“…May the blessings of Auterica be with you all.”

…by the name of his world.

And so, having left a lasting impression with his holy words, Heinrich smiled gently.

‘They’re coming.’

He sensed approaching presences and, gathering his power, drew his holy sword from the ground.

He wasn’t planning to meet them yet.

‘Not yet.’

He had achieved his objective. He needed to build anticipation for a more dramatic reveal.

And use this opportunity to spread his influence.

‘Direct preaching is… inefficient.’

With the current level of attention, he just needed to drop a few hints, and people would seek him out.

Then, until then…

Whoosh—

Just as the pursuers arrived, he activated 「Blessing: Leap」 and vanished from the lobby.

He reappeared in another hospital, far from the first.

And so, his game of hide-and-seek continued, his appearances brief and unpredictable.

And that evening,

The accumulated news of his appearances finally reached a critical mass.

The Korean internet exploded.
