< Episode 88: Sacheondang Street (2) >
“The true owner of the sacred flame will appear in this world, a day when new feathers will grow on the torn wounds. Everyone will worship?”
Mo Kyung-un’s expression became strange.
This was completely different from the existing prophecy.
[Be on guard, for the heavens will open and the incarnation of Ahriman, who will color the sacred flame with black evil, will appear in this world.]
The changed prophecy was closer to a warning, but the original prophecy did not have that feeling.
One thing that was similar was that someone would appear in this world.
‘······Ahriman incarnate······. The true master of the sacred flame…’
What on earth are these beings?
Why did the Holy Spirit Lord change the prophecy?
I just don’t understand.
Everything was so vague.
Mok Kyung-un, who was staring at the suffering Seonghwa Spiritual Ju, said.
“Why did you change the prophecy?”
“haha······. that······.”
Mok Kyung-un smiled and said to her as she hesitated.
“If you have a heavy mouth, no good will come of it. “If only I knew what I would do next.”
At these words, the Seonghwa Spiritual Lord trembled with a white face and then opened his mouth.
“······Granddaughter······. “There was nothing I could do to save my only granddaughter.”
“You were trying to save your granddaughter? Because of that, the prophecy was manipulated…”
“me······. I am······..”
“Forgetting the excuses and all, are you saying it was he in the organization who threatened my granddaughter?”
To this question, the Seonghwa Spiritual Lord nodded his head with difficulty.
The events of that time came back to her mind.
* * *
18 years ago, Baehwagyo’s torch battle.
There was a platform in the middle of the main hall, and on top of it stood a colorful staff with a blue jewel embedded in it.
Usually, the orb would emit a brilliant light.
But something strange happened to this orb.
-Oooooh!
A resonant sound spread out from the orb along with a strong tremor, causing the surrounding area to tremble.
The person who noticed this strange phenomenon was a neatly dressed man in Daejeon.
He was called Haeyeong Yakseon in the central plains, but here in Baehwagyo, he was called Jang Hobeop.
[How?]
Jang Ho-beop, surprised by the strange phenomenon that occurred in Boju, soon approached it.
A strong light was coming from the orb that was trembling strongly.
Unknowingly, Jang Ho-beop, who was attracted to it, reached out for the orb.
That moment,
[ah!]
Jang Ho-beop’s eyes darkened.
Jang Ho-beop, who had an astonished expression on his face as if he was seeing some kind of illusion, was immediately startled and withdrew his hand from the orb.
[What the hell is this?]
Jang Ho-beop, who was staring at the orb with trembling eyes, hurriedly tried to call out the Holy Fire Spirit Spell.
However, before he could leave Daejeon, coincidentally, someone wearing a Seonghwaryeongju, bamboo ribs, and a cotton thread came inside.
After discovering the golden sheath of a sword on the waist of a man wearing a bamboo hat, Protector Jang was able to guess who he was.
[Seonghwa Spirit! neck······.]
[Since when has it been like this? Jang protection law.]
Surprised by the sight of the orb emitting bright light with a resonant sound, the Seonghwa Spirituality interrupted his conversation and asked.
Jang Ho-beop responded to this.
[I do not know. I had just entered Daejeon, and suddenly the orb began to tremble and shine.]
[It is not normal for an orb to resonate this much.]
She said in a voice full of joy.
Jang Ho-beop, who was puzzled by this, asked a question.
[What do you mean it’s not normal?]
[Seonghwa gave a revelation. As for the protection of the chapter, call the church fathers immediately.]
[All right.]
While Jang Ho-beop went to call the church fathers, the Seonghwa Spiritual Jewel approached the orb where the tremors were becoming stronger.
This is her first time seeing a scene like this.
It’s been several decades since I kept the orb as a Holy Spirit Spell, but it has never made such a resonant sound or radiated this much light.
Is something unusual about to happen?
So she tried to reach out for the orb,
-Quad!
[No?]
The staff broke and the orb immediately jumped upward.
The orb that bounced like that was about to pierce the ceiling of Daejeon, but someone caught it just in the nick of time before it reached the ceiling.
-Park!
He was a Juklip person.
The Jukripin who caught it landed on the ground and paused for a moment while holding the orb.

The Spirit of Seonghwa approached him and held out his hand.
[Moonshine (密主). thank you Please give me the orb.]
[······.]
[moonshine?]
[ah!]
After hearing her call again, Jukripin, or rather, the person called Moonju, came to his senses and handed over the orb to the Holy Spirit of Seonghwa.
The Seonghwa Spiritual Lord who received the orb saw a vision the moment he held it.
It was a sight of sacred flames falling to the ground.
‘Huh, how did this happen?’
For her, who thought it was just a revelation, this sight was a complete shock.
The torch was like a symbol in Baehwagyo.
The sight of such a torch falling with its flame extinguished may not have been a simple revelation to the church, but a sad news announcing a tragedy.
But the fantasy didn’t stop there.
The flame that had been extinguished seemed to have turned to ashes, but at some point it began to burn brightly again, illuminating the surrounding area brilliantly.
[Ahhh!]
She let out an exclamation.
I thought it was just the final revelation announcing the fall of Baehwagyo.
But this was an ordeal.
If only we could find the spark to rekindle the flame in order to overcome this ordeal, it would burn brightly enough to illuminate the world again.
-widely!
She took her hand away from the orb and began to organize what she had seen.
Then, someone put a hand on her shoulder and said,
[Do not report exactly what you saw.]
‘!?’
Surprised by this, she turned her head.
The person who said these words to him was none other than Moon Joo.
[How can moonshine be like that…]
[I won’t say it twice. Forget what you saw now.]
[What are you talking about now? Moonshine, no way…. Did you see the revelation of the orb?]
She couldn’t help but be surprised.
Only those chosen by the orb could receive its revelation directly.
This would be impossible without sensitivity, so how was it possible for Moonshine to see visions of revelation?
I was puzzled, but Moon Joo said:
[The old flame has faded and will be replaced by a new flame. Therefore, the revelation shown by the orb is meaningless anymore.]
[I don’t know what Moonshine saw, but you’re saying too much! This is after all about Nobu, the owner of the Holy Spirit…]
-Sigh!
Before she could finish speaking, Moon Joo lifted up the cotton thread that was covering her face.
She had never seen the face of a moonshiner before.
But when I saw that face, I couldn’t help but be shocked.
‘Who, eyes?’
The moment she saw the third eye full of red spots that appeared to be Moon Joo’s forehead, she was so overcome with fear that she could not say anything.
Moon Joo said to her with a creepy smile.
[The time has finally come. The flame that has been held up will be completely extinguished. Now a new era has arrived.]
[W-what on earth…]
[Do not raise any questions. There is only one thing for you to do. Make a revelation to welcome a new era… No, no. okay. There is a need to make sure that the flame is dying out.]
[What are you saying now?]
[Make a revelation.]
[timing?]
[Brought down by those who believed and extinguished by the hands of those who worshiped. That’s very cool.]
Seonghwaryeongju’s eyes shook violently.
What on earth did Iza see?
What on earth did you see that makes you think the torch has completely subsided?
The flame will burn again.
More brilliantly than before.
[The torch does not go out. moonshine. I don’t know what your intention is when you say that, but the secret meeting is a shadow and a longing for Baehwagyo. How can you be like that…]
-Park!
[Oops!]
[Didn’t I tell you? I’ve been waiting for this moment.]
[Suddenly, out of breath…]
[You might be out of breath. But I won’t kill you now. Because you have work to do.]
[I… I… I will follow that…]
[I have to follow. If you don’t want to lose something precious.]
‘precious?’
The face of only one person, no, a child, appeared in her mind.
She was her granddaughter, her only remaining blood relative.
* * *
“Ah, that’s so cliché.”
Mokyungun, who was listening to Seonghwaryeongju’s words, clicked his tongue and said.
Unable to overcome the threats, he told a false prophecy.
In the end, doesn’t it mean that he chose his blood relatives rather than being a Christian?
However, through this story of her reminiscing about the past, I learned two things.
One of them was the relationship between the organization and Baehwagyo.
They were called Secret Society and were not a completely separate group from Baehwagyo, but were very closely related to it.
And the second was my grandfather.
‘Did grandfather also see something through that orb?’
From what I heard, it seemed like everyone in Baehwagyo believed in the false prophecy of the Holy Spirit Lord.
Even the Amjongju Hwanya Line.
However, the Baehwa Church members, as well as these organizations, were talking as if the grandfather had committed something by ignoring the prophecy.
That means there was a high probability that my grandfather knew the truth and not a false prophecy.
Therefore, he would have violated false prophecy and false revelation.
‘······.’
Mok Kyung-un suddenly remembered a memory.
The sight of him falling from the high sky and the sight of his grandfather bowing down towards him.
When I remembered this, I thought it was just a dream because it was my first time seeing it.
But suddenly this thought occurred to me.
‘The true master of the sacred flame… Could it be that I am the one spoken of in that prophecy?’
It was hard to believe, but all the circumstances were pointing towards him.
Even though he was an infant, he remembered everything he saw, heard, and smelled.
But the only thing I couldn’t remember was my childhood.
It was as if only that part of the memory had been cut out.
‘What am I?’
From the unknown existence within oneself to the existence latent in one’s lost memories.
All of this became complicated and my doubts about myself increased.
Mok Gyeong-un, who was lost in thought, opened his mouth.
“The more you dig into it, the more complicated everything becomes. “I just wanted to deal with the person who killed my grandfather.”
“······.”
“What is certain is that I cannot deny that I am closely related to that prophecy. “Isn’t that right?”
At that question, the Seonghwa Spiritual Lord lowered his head.
I couldn’t tell for sure whether the person in front of me was an incarnation or the entity itself.
However, it was clear that its presence was within it.
“that······.”
As she was about to say something, Mok Kyung-un waved his hand as if he was annoyed.
“That’s Okay. Let’s postpone this for now. “Right now, what I want to do is more important than knowing who I am.”
“If it’s something you want to do…”
“Didn’t I tell you? “I want to erase everything related to my grandfather’s death from the world.”
– Creepy!
Hearing those words from the lifeless Mo Kyung-un, Seonghwaryeongju felt a chill go down his spine for an instant.
If this person is indeed the true owner of the Holy Fire as spoken of in the prophecy, he has both the front and the back of the coin.
She recalled part of the doctrine that the previous Seonghwa Spiritual Lord had spoken.
[Ahura Mazda is a dual-faced Mainyu, so he can be both Spenta (good god) and Ahriman, that is, Angra (bad god).]
‘!!!!!!’
‘disaster······. ‘Could it be a disaster?’
Her eyes were trembling like crazy as she looked at Mo Kyung-un.
A thought suddenly occurred to her.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, his false prophecy may have truly brought about disaster.
“Now that I think about it, there’s something quite interesting about what you said.”
“What do you mean interesting?”
“That man named Moon Joo had eyes on his forehead?”
In response to Mo Kyung-un’s question, Seonghwa Ryeongju swallowed dry saliva and nodded.
I still haven’t forgotten that ominous and eerie sight.
Then Mok Gyeong-un, who was stroking his chin, spoke as if he had noticed something.
“iced coffee. “Now I understand.”
‘!?’
“It was simpler than I thought. “The third wooden tablet.”
“The third wooden tablet?”
The third wooden tablet.
It was said that the head of the organization is called that.
At first, Mo Qingyun did not understand what this meant.
But it was surprisingly simple.
“The neck and liver are not separate but ultimately one. Inside the eyes… Ultimately, the meaning of the third wooden tablet is the three eyes.”
