Episode 36: An angel who makes it rain (6)
Seeing the referee distributing fuel, Naiad muttered from a distance.
“That’s Lepriel… … ?”
Lepriel is a heavenly judge and a person who enforces the rules of the world, so he would never have done something like that.
There was no way he could get involved in people’s fights, and there was no way he could think about the feelings of the people who were disappointed by the fight.
The only rules that mattered to him. As long as the rules are followed, no matter what tragedy unfolds on earth… … .
‘The one who doesn’t care is probably the referee… … .’
But lo and behold.
A young prosecutor who fell into the lake approaches the children with an embarrassed expression and is startled when he sees the referee.
“Uh, over there… … .”
The referee handed him the gas without saying anything. What was even more surprising was that he didn’t get angry at all when he handed over the oil like that.
He was even smiling.
‘Are you that happy to receive your own enjoyment? He was even the one who tried to stab himself… … .’
In fact, the reason the referee smiled was because of this angelic power… There was no way Naiad knew that. And so did countless people watching this on TV.
‘Is this an angel…? … .’
‘He’s really nice. This is what a hero is… … .’
When the misunderstanding between spirits and people becomes this severe… The referee decided to start a full-fledged business.
“I will give more to those who need cooking oil. “In return, would you mind sharing some of the materials you obtained?”
Tastings are a traditional marketing tool.
Of course, there was no way the snobbish angel referee would have given away this precious oil for no reason. He did this with the intention of securing angel power while also doing marketing.
‘I don’t know where the flowers of reflection might be. In that case, going deep to get materials would be tantamount to suicide.’
Currently, the referee and Yumari are unable to go out to get ingredients. Of course, it was because of the flower of reflection. The referee may be fine, but if Yumari gets hit by the flower of reflection… … .
Yumari’s dark past will be revealed, and people will be excited to bite into it.
And Seocheon Yuga, who is supposed to protect her, will just as coldly throw her away as he did in his past life.
If that happens… … .
‘Yumari will truly despair of humanity and this world. In that case, you will betray humanity again. No, no, this isn’t important… … .’
If this isn’t important, what is?
Isn’t the reason why the Referee helps Yumari, firstly, to use angel power, and secondly, to prevent Yumari from betraying humanity? The referee was betrayed by Yumari. He did the same with the rest of humanity.
Nevertheless… … .
The referee whispered in his heart.
‘But, still, I…’ … .’
Even if angelic power does not come in… … .
‘I hope that child doesn’t get sick any more… … .’
The referee muttered in his heart without anyone knowing, not even himself.
* * *
From then on, everything went according to the referee’s plan.
Yumari and Leprene sold oil in the center of the lake without having to go far, while others went into the forest around the lake to obtain various materials and exchanged them with Leprene.
“It’s so delicious when you eat it on its own, but how much better would it taste if you sprinkled it on instead of salad dressing? Please try it once. Oh, if you give me that, I’ll give you another bottle of this.”
Moreover, Yumari’s acting skills… … .
‘I’m sure just a moment ago, I was fully thinking of beating them all… … .’
Look at Yumari, who is selling oil now.
Sparkling eyes, lively expression. Plus, a friendly chit-chat. There was so much friendliness that it flowed around them.
And as soon as the guest leaves, his expression turns cold.
It was a little scary.
‘It’s a little scary… … .’
So there wasn’t much for the referee to do. When the referee secretly filled the bottle with oil, Yumari used her affinity to exchange it for more ingredients.
Yumari muttered with an expressionless expression while holding a bunch of ingredients from around the lake.
“Referee! “I got the ingredients.”
“Wow, wow.”
I can cook any dish.
The referee’s artisan-level cooking skills were crying out for him to cut those fresh ingredients into pieces right away.
‘It’s not some kind of black flame dragon…’ I’m waiting for you. I’ll let you run wild soon.’
The referee grabbed his left hand to prepare the ingredients. And he muttered.
“Do you think this is enough?”
“I think so too.”
“then… … .”
The referee and Yumari looked at each other for a moment. The boy blushed and had no choice but to avoid Yumari’s gaze.
‘What did I say while crying earlier… … ?’
The referee glanced at Yumari.
The cold Yumari was blushing a little.
And with my head down… … .
‘Could it be that Yumari is embarrassed now?’
And then a cold voice comes from behind.
“Repriel.”

That moment… Just like they did at the event headquarters, everyone around them suddenly disappears. The only ones left in this large lake are the referee and the naiad.
‘Is it some kind of barrier?’
The referee looked around.
But all he could see was an angry Naiad.
“I would have told you. This competition can only use ingredients from Naiad Lake… … !”
“Oh my, didn’t you know? In fact, this enjoyment… “It’s from Lake Naiad.”
The referee grinned.
It was a laugh that was somewhat devil-like.
“What nonsense?!”
“Look at this.”
The referee used his power to make his hands become oily.
“Where does this oil come from?”
“What are you talking about… … .”
“I made this oil in Naiad Lake. So where should this material come from? USA? china? Nope. Of course, it must be said that it came from Naiad Lake.”
The referee still smiled like a devil.
And the Spirit King who saw that… Bubbling – It wasn’t just an onomatopoeia, the naiad was actually bubbling – boiling.
“I can’t admit it.”
Naiad declared. But the referee was not surprised and nodded his head.
“Well, I thought you would. “If I hadn’t used the oil, they would have caught the pods with something else and come back.”
“… what?”
“Because you… Drop Yumari… No, you were ordered to humiliate Yumari, right?”
The referee looked at Naiad with cold eyes.
“What nonsense? Why would I, the Spirit King, treat a girl like that…? … !”
Naiad is visibly embarrassed. The referee looked at Naiad pitifully.
But why did the referee have this suspicion? To know that, we have to go back to the time we shared the oil earlier.
‘The angel power didn’t come in as much as I thought.’
The referee stopped the students from fighting by distributing heavenly ointment, but why hasn’t the angelic power provided when he fulfills his duty still arrived?
This was the status window that came to the referee.
Then, it is something that causes humanity to distrust humanity. If I could prevent a bloody fight between students, I had to show that I had fulfilled my duty.
‘But the angelic power related to this hasn’t arrived yet.’
In that case, it meant that the referee still had work left to do as an angel. And he also said that there are still things left to do that will cause humanity to distrust humanity.
‘If I hadn’t intervened in the spirit’s protection this time… … .’
According to the plan of Yoo Si-hyeon, the eldest grandson of the Seocheon Confucian family and the student council president, Yumari would suffer all kinds of humiliation under the pretense of a competition.
And it would have been broadcast around the world.
‘People become deeply disappointed in superhumans after watching that broadcast. It’s not because of the numbers Yumari showed… ‘The ones who are bullying a girl so darkly are Central Academy students.’
If you think about it carefully, it was like that.
No matter how student council president Yoo Si-hyeon is, he cannot accommodate all of the students. Not only are there definitely students with different factions than you, but if this kind of scheme gets to the ears of many people… … .
‘It must be difficult to keep it secret.’
So Yoo Si-hyeon would have recruited just one person. This is Naiad, the Water Spirit King, who is the organizer and game maker of this competition.
I guess he used that Naiad to make other students bully Yumari.
“The person called the Water Spirit King… Are you being recruited to harass just one girl? “Aren’t you embarrassed?”
“That’s nonsense. “You say this without any evidence.”
As she said so, the Naiad scattered water spirits to explore the surroundings. It is about exploring what magic or power is hidden.
‘Hmph, a person who is said to be clean would be suspicious like that.’
The referee raised one finger.
“Here is the first evidence. Naiad, why did you come to see me only today?”
“Well, that’s because I recognize you today… … .”
“No. The owner of all water spirits recognized me and came to visit me only today? “That can’t be possible.”
The referee glared at Naiad.
“I know I came to help Yumari, so to prevent that… “Didn’t you come today just to scare me?”
“you… … .”
Naiad could not refute. He looks at the boy and raises one more finger.
“Second, why are you targeting Yumari so blatantly?”
“You’re blatantly targeting me… “I never told that girl!”
“Get ingredients from the forest covered with reflection flowers. Of course, the conditions are unfavorable to Yumari, and it is okay to have a bloody battle in a cooking competition, but using the oil obtained here is not allowed. Honestly, you are so biased. Yes?”
Then it’s the last time.
If you put pressure like this until the end, the end will always be… … .
“Lastly, I know that you colluded with Yoo Si-hyeon. What on earth did they collude with? “I’m really curious.”
Take a look.
If I don’t get over this, things will be a headache… … .
The referee quietly grabbed his cell phone.
‘Then now is the time to start a winning strategy… … !’
The referee smiled.
It’s literally a little devil… No, it was the smile of an angel.
“… “It’s pretty good.”
Naiad smiled sheepishly for a moment, then muttered coldly.
“But what do you know? To the subject who is just a heavenly doll. “Even though he receives so many prayers, he never repays them.”
Naiad looked at the referee again.
“Yes, I was ordered to do so. As you know, the Seocheon Confucian family has not yet decided on a successor. To Yoo Si-hyeon, Yumari is someone who must be eliminated someday.”
Then he avoided eye contact and opened his mouth.
“But if we prove Yumari’s incompetence through this competition… They say you won’t have to kill your sister Yumari. how is it? “I had no choice but to help with this out of humanitarianism.”
“Don’t make excuses.”
gibberish… The referee resented his inability to swear.
“What on earth did Yoo Si-hyeon promise? money? authority?”
“entire… … .”
“No, I can’t believe it. “What use are money and power to you, the Spirit King?”
Then Naiad muttered in a sad voice.
“That’s how you can protect your precious things…” … .”
“… “By harming other people’s precious things?”
“… … !”
The referee shook his head.
And then I shouted while fiddling with my phone.
“Okay, I heard you right.”
“what?”
Naiad frowned, as if he didn’t understand what was going on.
“I’ve heard the testimony well so far.”
And the referee showed Naiad his cell phone. There, the entire conversation between the referee and Naiad was recorded on video.
“What is this… … !”
This was the referee’s goal.
The Spirit King is an old spirit that has lived for hundreds or thousands of years. Naturally, such a spirit would have little chance of knowing how these machines worked or what functions they had.
‘I’m sure he was only wary of magic and angelic powers.’
The referee shouted confidently.
“If the Spirit King did something foolish to our Yumari! Or if he tried to bully Yumari by using other students! “I will release this information to the whole world right away.”
“It’s not just any movie… “You’re recording this with your cell phone?”
“It’s not a recording, it’s a video.”
The referee took the form and transferred the data from his cell phone to the cloud. Of course, it’s not like the Spirit King knows what Cloud is… … .
Anyway, it is a victory for the Mecha Angel Referee.
“And even when they gave our team a poor evaluation… Even though it was given well, it didn’t end up being first place… “You know, right?”
“you… you… “Are you an angel?”
This is the angelic winning strategy.
Wicked threats… No, it was a fair negotiation.
‘With this, we will win the Spirit’s Protection… … !’
The referee smiled slightly. Naiad is unable to hide her embarrassment as she sees this.
“okay. Lepriel, but… … .”
“however… … ?”
Is it a long story? The referee took out his cell phone again.
“But Yoo Si-hyeon’s plan has already left my hands.”
“What do you mean? It’s already out of your hands… … .”
As Naiad’s barrier is lifted, people appear again.
The first thing that caught the referee’s eye was Yumari. Next was a student from the Department of Magic who approached Yumari.
In his hand was a glass bottle.
It was also sealed with a magical symbol… … .
“Hey, we also want to change the oil with this ingredient… … .”
“Yes, what kind of material is it?”
The magic arts student said with a grin.
The glass bottle was unsealed with those words.
“It’s a flower of reflection… … .”
The referee ran. He ran with all the strength he had available. A tree struck by lightning, the fastest movement method in Fairy Fighting, and even using the power of martial arts… … .
“no!”
The referee reached out to the flower of reflection.
