Regressor Instruction Manual

Chapter 602: Way to Overcome (3)

-The chosen warrior of the continent will hold a sacred sword in his hand and fight against the darkness of demons acting as false angels. On the side of the hero wielding the sword of the sunset, he will contribute to saving humanity from darkness. He will have the purest soul and be the sword against the enemies of the alchemist. He will be a huge beam of light against the fallen darkness.

-…

-This is a gift of light and your hope as a means to counter the lie. This sword will remain on the continent for a long time, to protect the continent for centuries to come and to share the continent’s destiny.

-…

-Sons and daughters of light fighting under Benignore’s name. This poor Goddess believes you will overcome the test given by the gray sword. I firmly believe that you will not surrender to the great trials and darkness to come.

-I’ll keep it in mind, Oh, Benignore.

-I’m always grateful to you, Pope Basel.

-How can you say that to this stupid mortal?

-Please, this pure soul…

-Ahhhhhh…

-…

-…

-Ah yes. I came after seeing what happened this morning. So far, no official statement has been issued by the Holy See. Do you have any news? Reporter Kim Seong-kyung?

-Yes, this is reporter Kim Seong-kyung with Benignore currently on the scene. Unfortunately, no official statement has yet been released. With the widespread attention of many continental people, various rumors are spreading. Accordingly, some Holy See officials have said that there will be a statement as soon as Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung escapes from the advent’s aftereffects.

-Is it safe to assume that the prophecy’s accurate interpretation of the holy sword is not finished yet?

-Yes, there seems to be an additional discussion on how to choose the owner of this holy sword. It is said that there is a high possibility that intense debates will continue about the degree of the ordeal that the holy sword gives and whether or not there are other conditions.

-If so, when will the discussion end…?

-Yes, it is not yet known. Currently, the holy sword’s location is strictly controlled by the Holy Knights of the Holy sector.

‘Ah… This is showing the same scene too many times.’

I still ended up staring at it blankly. Wasn’t this similar on Earth? Broadcasters had nothing else to show, so it was very common to replay some scenes again and again. When they heard the news from the Holy sector, it was obvious that they would just use and reuse that for about an hour or two. Nevertheless, I couldn’t take my eyes off of it.

A gray sword descending from the sky with a huge burst of light. Had I ever seen such a magnificent sight in my life? All the priests radiated divine power at the same time. When the gray sword finally settled on the ground, it looked even more magnificent. Everyone from the Holy sector had their mouths wide open.

Pope Basel supporting the image of the fainted Honorary Cardinal was like a scene from a myth. There was so much attention on the Benignore Net alone that the expression ‘Explosive’ was an understatement.

‘In this case, there will be more.’

There would be many people who would think that they may be the chosen warrior. As I instinctively took out the Goddess’ Hand Mirror, the general forum, already on fire, flashed before my eyes.

[Title: My friend has amnesia. He asked me not to tell… What should I do? (Comments: 122)]

[Author: I like the B1ue color]

Almost all of the forums were flooded with events that were happening today. In the meantime, the amnesia story that occupied a spot in the best posts category bothered me, and I moved my finger like a machine.

[Title: My friend has amnesia. He asked me not to tell… What should I do? (Comments: 122)]

[Author: I like the B1ue color]

[My friend has amnesia. He is a co-worker and we have been at the same party since the beginning, but I heard some shocking news a few days ago. It is said to be caused by a previous injury that occurred when the 27th Legion invaded the continent, and ever since I heard that, I can’t stop crying, and I can’t concentrate.

I want to let the party members know and see if there is any way to solve it all together… but this friend asked me not to tell because he doesn’t want to be a nuisance. He says that he can handle it alone… It’s frustrating, but for now… I said okay. However, he keeps passing out, and that bothers me.

What would you guys do? … Omitted]

[Anonymous: What can you do? He has dementia, and he said that he wants to die like that. In that case, the answer is just to leave him alone.]

[H.G.S.A.L. lover: Trolls are here again. It would be easier to ignore comments like that, author. First of all, I would like to tell you to cheer up. I know that more and more people suffer from that invasion’s aftereffects, and it hurts very much to say that he is one of those people. I’m not in a position to say something, but… for now, it would be better to respect your friend’s opinion. Your friend is the one who’s having the hardest time… Omitted]

[Anonymous: Maybe it’s a fake. Nowadays, there are a lot of people who claim to be mentally ill to receive continental pensions. And H.G.S.A.L. lover is always rude, but pretends to comfort people in these comments, what a phony.]

[Lindel village resident: If he wanted to receive the continental pension, he would have announced it publicly. Why would he hide and grumble by himself? There are similar cases around me… Honestly, it’s possible.]

[Soil spoon: I think the story itself is fake… Although many people are suffering from the aftereffects of the corps invasion, as far as I know, no other people developed amnesia. I think someone desperate for attention wrote a fake story just to get some likes.]

[I like the B1ue color: I wish it were fake.]

[Anonymous: Just take this dislike.]

[I like the B1ue color: It’s not fake. I’m serious.]

‘This ‘Anonymous’ guy is attracting attention here too.’

While lost in my thoughts, I absentmindedly clicked the back arrow. This heartbreaking story of an unknown adventurer was not important right now.

[Title: It seems like I am the chosen warrior… (Comments: 423)]

[Writer: Kim Kyung-sik, editor]

[It’s just as I have written in the title. Last night, Benignore came into my dream… The dream was a little peculiar. She approached me and slowly lowered the sword, and it is safe to say that I felt the spirit of becoming sacred. I can’t say exactly who I am or where I live, but anyway, I’m in the divine line… When I woke up from my dream, I noticed that my divine power stat was up a whopping 5 points. Isn’t this enough proof to be recognized as the chosen warrior? I’m going to pack my bags and go get my sword today. I will be posting a pilgrimage post in 3 days.]

[Soil spoon: If this is real, it will be lit… We will make a pilgrimage in advance.]

[Red Mercenary Junsaeng: Why are there so many replies to this nonsense? Don’t be ridiculous, just go get ready for a job.]

[Anonymous: Do you really think that the gray sword will be revealed to the common people? That’s what makes it even more ridiculous. Probably Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung, the high-ranking people of the Holy sector, and the high-ranking people of the Continental Protection and Management Committee will be looking for candidates. It means that someone will be chosen by them. Obviously, at the end of the meeting, they will try to sway the press while saying ‘the warrior has been chosen.’]

[H.G.S.A.L. lover: It’s ridiculous to see someone who doesn’t know anything talk about his own theory here. Maybe it will be open to the public. Of course, they will do the qualification exams, but I heard that all continental people could participate.]

[Lindel village resident: Blue guild staff… is that true?]

[H.G.S.A.L. lover: I can’t tell you the details. And don’t announce that I’m a Blue Guild employee. I’ll get caught.]

[Anonymous: What is a qualification exam? Doesn’t that mean that they will just take it themselves?]

[H.G.S.A.L. lover: Didn’t you listen to Benignore’s words? Don’t you remember her saying that there’s an ordeal from the gray sword? In the case of ordinary people, the moment they touch the sword, their magic power will be exhausted and their soul will leave their body.]

[Anonymous: You’re talking again as if you’ve seen it yourself, hahahahaha. Trying to pretend again this time and leave?]

[H.S.G.D.L Public Relations Committee Chair: H.S.G.A.L lover is right. It is said that a paladin in the church reached out to it without knowing what it is and then passed out with all of his divine power drained out. There is still a lot of talk about how to find the chosen warrior because of that. If a common person touches it without knowing, it is even possible for that person to die… It would be a little difficult to disclose this freely…]

[Anonymous: How do you know that? I guess there aren’t any people in this room who aren’t capable. Well, everyone says they’re right, but it’s ridiculous.]

[H.S.G.A.L. lover has blocked H.S.G.D.L. Public Relations Committee Chair.]

[H.S.G.D.L Public Relations Committee Chair:??]

[Soil spoon: You seem to have pressed the block button by mistake… Your hand must have slipped while trying to block Anonymous.]

[H.S.G.A.L lover: ^^;;]

‘These people don’t normally finish their comments. Every day they growl at each other unnecessarily like that…’

I didn’t know who they were or where they lived, but at least once, I thought it would actually be nice to look at their faces, so what else did I need to say?

I read the comment of H.S.G.A.L. lover carefully. The comment was deleted immediately, but apparently, they didn’t verify the Blue Guild’s insignia and employee I.D. Of course, there was no confirmation that what he said was true, but I at least felt that the probability of him being right was higher than what Anonymous was saying.

‘Exactly…’

Since Benignore actually used the expression ‘ordeal,’ it would be impossible to pick up the sword with just general determination. In fact, if a paladin touched the sword and passed out, that meant there was a high probability that it was not just a routine test.

As expected, two sides of the comment windows were arguing against each other regarding this matter. Multiple messages were flowing at the same time in an instant, and the gradual flow of the subject changing was visible. Eventually, it became a field of discussion that had nothing at all to do with the editor Kim Kyungsik who had originally posted the topic. Comments were still pouring in.

[Anonymous: Does it make sense for someone to faint just because they touched the holy sword? According to your logic, that is not a holy sword but a magic sword. It’s like having fatal side effects… Benignore wouldn’t be that crazy, right? Am I right?]

[Lindel village resident: It doesn’t make sense. Wasn’t it what Benignore emphasized most in the first place? Then should she just give that sword to the local villagers?? Since he’s the one chosen by the sword to fight the devil, isn’t it right that his energy could at least do it?]

[Anonymous: That’s your theory, right? If you want to refute my words, please bring in some good evidence.]

[Lindel Village Resident: If there really is a chosen warrior that comes out, it would be okay for him to pick up the sword. I’m scared, so I don’t think I can take the test. If you’re curious, you can verify it yourself, anonymous.]

‘Shall I go there too?’

It was a little scary, but who knew? I could really be the chosen one.

‘What are you thinking… You’re busy working on the 5th District right now.’ I berated myself.

I wondered if I would be able to ask in detail if I contacted Mr. Park-no-Park Deokgu, but I was still scared.

I gulped and looked down at the Goddess’ Mirror once again.

-Yes, this is reporter Kim Seong-kyung. The surroundings are getting more crowded, and a spokesman for the Holy See is moving to make an official announcement. Ah… Yes. Archbishop Jaina has come in person.

Finally, the positions of the officials have been summarized.
