Chapter 650: Foreign Light (1)

[Reporter Kim Sungkyung.]

[Yes, this is Kim Sungkyung, reporter of Lindel News. After about 7 hours, 47 minutes since the foreign light fell from the northern end, the Papal Office and the Continental Protection and Management Committee still haven’t made any official announcements. People’s anxiety and worry are increasing. A spokesman for the Holy See, Jaina, has said that it is being investigated, but the papal office has not yet been able to make a proper judgment. External experts are also waiting for their investigation team to bring results.]

[Is it true that Chairman Lee Kiyoung has blocked all contact with the outside world?]

[Yes, currently, Chairman Lee Kiyoung has blocked contact with outsiders. There are rumors that he has a health problem, but in any case, whether that external light has had any adverse effects on the Chairman… ]

Beep.

[The Continental Protection and Management Committee is strictly controlling the entire region where the foreign light has erupted. A joint investigation team of the Papal Office and the Continental Protection and Management Committee has set up a temporary camp nearby. They are working on a quick investigation, but no new news has been heard yet. The Honorary Cardinal is said to have stabilized at the moment…]

Beep.

[This is just in: a short briefing on the current situation at the State…]

Beep.

[Amid the rapid movement of the joint training center’s troops toward the forward base built to prepare for the demons wearing angelic masks…]

Beep.

[Title: Did you see the news? What happened?]

[Author: Editor Kim Kyungsik]

[The atmosphere seems to be hinting towards wartime conditions… Is it really true that demons are coming in?]

[Lindel village resident: I don’t know the details. However, it seems certain that the atmosphere has been unsettled. The guilds in Lindel are also moving to the north recklessly now, and in fact, they have almost finished their placement. Overall, it seems information is being blocked from leaking out, and there hasn’t been an announcement yet. I think H.G.S.A.L probably knows about it. When this happens, the first reaction usually comes from the Blue Guild. In fact, I don’t know if he has time to watch this. The Blue Guild also looks like to be in an emergency right now…]

[H.G.S.A.L: If you wait for it a little, it will probably be announced.]

[Lindel village resident: Please tell me.]

[H.G.S.A.L: I would tell you if I knew something. I only know what is being shown in the media. The troops are moving just in case, and the investigation has not yet been completed. It is not a situation where anything can be announced recklessly.]

[Mijung: How can a country be like this? It’s been 7 hours since the incident, but no official announcement has been released. I usually don’t say this, but I don’t know what they’re doing. What about Chairman Lee Kiyoung fainting? They have to announce something, so we’d know what to do. It is a fact that the official announcement was late because the high-ranking people are preparing for evacuation. Do you agree? If they announce, ‘Your continent is safe! I hope that everyone stays in place and enjoys their daily lives!”, then I’m right. They must be picturing an ending where they’ll abandon us and run away.]

[Plastic spoon: I know what Mijung is worried about. I don’t know about anyone else, but Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung is not that kind of person. He is famous for sacrificing his own body for the underprivileged… I have also received a lot of help from him…]

[H.G.S.A.L: That bastard is not Mijung. Plastic spoon, he is not Mijung. He speaks differently, and the way he’s trying to get attention is beyond the true Mijung. He’ll be drawn to the stage soon. You should have prepared better.]

[Mijung: You’re sharp.]

[Tresha: But… ]

[Lindel village resident: Gosh, please stop, really. This is already too disturbing… ]

[Plastic spoon: But, for some reason, you two are perfect for each other. While squabbling.]

[Lindel village resident: Agreed.]

[H.G.S.A.L: Shut up.]

[H.P.G.S.L Public Relations Chairman: You two, be happy.]

Beep.

‘Fuck, that’s fortunate. It wasn’t anything special, fuck.’

I had to breathe out a sigh of relief. I was relieved firstly that the scenery after a nap was something I was familiar with it, and secondly that the world hadn’t yet changed.

After thinking that everything was over, I was really surprised when the pillar of light fell out of nowhere.

I thought the world would be ruined after I woke up, but I couldn’t withstand the telescope’s rebound and passed out anyway.

It wouldn’t be unreasonable for me to think like that from my standpoint. I heard a voice next to me when I was looking at the mirror alone and laughing.

“Why are you laughing like that as soon as you wake up? It’s not even a situation where you should be reacting that way.”

As I turned my head, I saw Lee Jihye, who looked at me as if she was watching something fun.

“Just this and that. I just saw that the pillar of light fell and passed out. I was worried that if I woke up, I would wake up to the world of Apocalypse. But it seems nothing much happened… It feels good, Jihye.”

“It must have been really surprising.”

“Well, I thought everything would be ruined… Fortunately, it doesn’t seem like that. No, putting that aside. Jihye, what about the pledge we made…”

“I wanted to keep it, but it was really unavoidable. I thought you would say that, and you really did. Why do you keep something like that in mind? It worked out well, so that’s it. Did the Blue Guild Master pay for the charter here?”

“…”

“I mean…”

“…”

“Anyway, really… no, forget it. What’s the point in arguing about that, right? By the way, you woke up early this time.”

“Yeah. Once I pass out, it usually lasts at least three days…”

Her eyes began to pour out a doubt, whether I ate something good or whether it was all acting.

To be honest, I was forced to agree that her suspicions were rational. I also had to be a little surprised.

Who would have known that I would wake up so quickly after experiencing a rebound from the use of Elune’s telescope?

‘I ate something good indeed.’

Divinity overflowed all over my body, so how could a mere rebound be a problem? I was so healthy that I felt like I could do more than 100 push-ups.

‘Seeing that I’m here, Hyunsung was probably able to come to his mind as well.’

I wondered if I would be in Lucifer’s arms when I opened my eyes, but fortunately, that didn’t happen.

Although still being affected by her influence, at least Kim Hyunsung didn’t think of ??kidnapping me. It must’ve been obvious that he had found the path he lost again.

He even kept standing by my side. What more words would I need? It meant that if the continent were about to be destroyed, he would take me and run.

To put it together in the fact that he had fixed the incident well. I also wanted to appreciate the fact that the demon bastards didn’t come out immediately…

In fact, the question was, why did a foreign light suddenly strike down in the north?

“By the way… What is the cause of all this?”

‘Fuck, it’s obvious what the cause is.’

It was just a guess, but one very reliable hypothesis lingered in my head.

‘The continent has cracked.’

Of course, it was yet to be confirmed.

Even I, who had a personality that liked to blame others, thought that, so I wanted to believe that the people from above weren’t so stupid.

‘It’s ridiculous. That can’t be.’

The hypothesis to be considered was that an abnormality had occurred in the continent’s security system due to continued interference.

Perhaps the crack on the continent, which was barely being blocked, was further widened by Lucifer and Benignore’s superiors.

It was a rough hypothesis, but it seemed to be so for some reason.

Wasn’t the crack one of the reasons that the gods were reluctant to engage with things of our world?

Lucifer and the gods’ superiors forcibly pushed in divinity, creating a gap as a result. It was reasonable to suspect that an outsider was tearing in between them.

‘Really stupid bastards.’

It might’ve been a situation where the faucet was wrapped with tape in a hurry, but how could that stop the leaking water stream?

I wondered if it didn’t matter if I judged that the foreign cloud of light currently being poured was a leaking water stream.

Maybe Kim Hyunsung was sitting next to me, realizing that the outer god would arrive right away.

I didn’t know how long it would take, but…

‘We may have some time.’

That news was most fortunate among the misfortunes.

“I’ll check it a bit more clearly and tell you later. It’s something I can’t be sure of yet.”

“Then, how much time is left?”

“I don’t know that either. I have to study it a bit more. Perhaps roughly one month? I don’t think we have that long, but that could be the case if we’re lucky. Oh, where did Hyunsung go?”

“He went to a countermeasure meeting. If it weren’t for that, he would have been here.”

“You didn’t go?”

“What’s the point to having a meeting without you? I didn’t even think of participating because it seemed like it would end only after discussing meaningless things anyway, and it was only a waste of time. There are also only humans who don’t have much nutritional value there…”

“What about Cho Hyejin? Did she wake up? What about Raphael?”

“The Raphael party is now lying down and recovering, and Hyejin is also…”

“She must have gone with Hyunsung.”

“No. She’s in her room.”

“Still?”

“Because Hyunsung said he would go alone. Oh, I was trying to ask, but did you two fight? It’s the first time I’ve seen such a cold look in this world. I don’t always say this, but the way that the Blue Guild Master looked at our Hyejin was like he was seeing human trash.”

‘Since when did he look at Hyejin like that?’

“I thought there was going to be bloodshed right there. I even made her look pretty, but what did he say? He told her to do her job right. He said she no longer had to report to him and not to say useless things. And in the end, he even looked at her as if he had cut ties with her, you know? And Cho Hyejin reached out her hand to him without knowing, but he shook her off. You know, they say that when someone gets really angry, they don’t even get into a temper. It’s not just at a level where he doesn’t like her. He seemed to be completely disgusted. Ugh, I just got chills.”

‘Ah…’

“I think he changed. There was a problem inside there, right?”

‘There was a problem indeed.’

However, I couldn’t even imagine he would have said that to Cho Hyejin. Of course, the reason was expected, but…

‘Wow, he must have felt really betrayed.’

I was almost sure that he thought that Cho Hyejin backstabbed him.

From Kim Hyunsung’s point of view, it meant that she continued to report false information. It was only natural for him to get angry.

Of course, the influence of Doom Hyunsung made him shake off her hand and say harsh words.

He seemed to have expressed his feelings more exaggeratedly than intended, as he hadn’t yet been able to escape from the black wings completely.

It was true that Cho Hyejin had made a false report to Kim Hyunsung. Hence, it couldn’t be helped. However, it wasn’t unreasonable that a sense of responsibility made my heart shake.

Of course, I was in a third-party position, but how could I act apathetically to my friend’s crisis?

She had also helped me a lot…

‘I guess I have to help her a bit on this.’

I had to think so.

Since he was in a meeting, it felt like it wasn’t too bad to go. No, I had to go no matter what. I had to have a briefing on the overall situation anyway.

“Let’s get ready to move, Jihye. Tell Hyejin to get ready too. I am also going to the countermeasure meeting.”

“Are you going now?”

“Yeah.”

Lee Jihye was looking at me, almost asking if everything would be okay.
