91. Christine Craig
On the plane back to the US.
Christine still couldn’t hide her embarrassment.
Because your fiancé’s business partner looks younger than you think?
Because it turns out that he is a prophet?
Or, does your fiancé, whom you’ve known for 6 months, keep all the information about the next round to himself?
Not everything.
What made Christine bewildered was the prophet’s statement that she was in danger in the 11th round.
‘If my father had been there, it would have been a big problem.’
Perhaps the pastor would have lost his reputation and lashed out at the little Asian?
A father with a fiery temper would have done that.
‘But a rope is coming down to save me?’
Christine recalled a conversation she had with a self-proclaimed prophet.
-Donga rope. What does that mean?
-It means that someone will save you.
-Who is that?
-I can’t tell you that much.
Even thinking about it now, it couldn’t have been more absurd.
‘You can’t tell me who it is. ‘Are you really a prophet?’
If I had seen the future that saved me, I would have seen who it was.
Is there any reason not to mention it?
‘Who will save me? Could it be that my fiancé is me…? … ?’
Christine, who had been wondering who it was, shook her head as if to shake off her thoughts.
‘Goofy. ‘I can’t believe you’re taking such a ridiculous prophecy seriously.’
It’s only information for round 7, but it’s only vague, and doesn’t even say who will save the day.
It is just a prophecy without any substance.
Of course, since there is resurrection, we cannot assume that there is no ability to see the future.
‘But I don’t think that Asian man is a prophet.’
I couldn’t shake the feeling that my fiancé was being deceived.
[A short time later, we will arrive at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.]
When I looked up, I realized that I had already arrived at the airport.
After finding my suitcase, I went out to the gate and a familiar person came out to meet me.
It was Jeffrey Bishop, a young deacon.
“Christine. Did you have a good time in Korea?”
“Ah, Deacon Bishop. I didn’t know you were coming to meet me at the airport.”
“The pastor told me to bring him straight away instead of going the other way.”
“Ha, I guess it’s awkward.”
Christine sighed briefly and got into the black van.
The car driving towards the outskirts of the airport stopped in front of the church.
You can see a sign that says [Shiningwood Church].
It is a very large church with over 100,000 believers and is the largest in the entire United States.
At this level, the church is in a position where even the governor of Texas cannot do anything rashly.
The daughter of the pastor of such an influential church was Christine.
There is nothing wrong with marrying a conglomerate.
Mei profit-
When I opened the church door, I saw a large chapel reminiscent of a concert hall.
Jumble-jump-
If you go around the chapel and walk to the back, you will find the pastor’s office.
Jeffrey said, knocking.
“Pastor. Christine is here.”
“Ask them to come in.”
I opened the door and moved out of the way, and Christine went inside.
There was a middle-aged man there who looked stubborn.
It was Christine’s father, Nathan Watson.
“Are you here?”
“Yes, father.”
“So, did you meet your Korean fiancé?”
“sure.”
“What kind of person is your fiancé in your opinion?”
“He’s a neat and decent person.”
“Isn’t he being rude to you by any chance?”
“He’s never done anything like that. He doesn’t seem like a bad enough person to do that. In fact, he treats me with respect.”
“Of course I have to be polite. She’s someone’s daughter.”
Nathan smiled contentedly.
“So what do you think? Now that you look at it, does the person seem okay?”
“well.”
“Is there no progress in the relationship?”
“Because we’re not at that stage yet.”

“We’ve been dating for 6 months and you’re still at that point?”
At that moment, Christine got angry.
“You mean love? We just go back and forth without even thinking about each other. Can this be called love?”
“Still, just be patient. Ohsung Group is a world-famous Korean conglomerate. Marrying the eldest son of such a conglomerate will be good for you and not bad.”
“I know that, but…!”
Christine, who was screaming in tears, calmed down her anger.
The conversation about marriage with my father has already been completed.
There is no way they will listen to me if I say I will forgive them now.
Don’t you know just by looking at the simplicity of finding someone for an arranged marriage, saying it’s for your own good?
“Even if you don’t like it, if you watch it, you’ll grow fond of it. Maybe you’ll become so close that you can’t live without it.”
“Well, for some reason, I feel uncomfortable with such foolish people. They say that the more people like that, the more they try to look perfect to hide their dark intentions, right?”
“I don’t have such doubts. As a child of Jesus, you still lack discipline.”
“That’s because she is her father’s daughter.”
“…….”
There was silence between mother and daughter for a moment.
“So, what does your fiancé do these days?”
“They said they were preparing to start a business.”
“It’s business. Even though the world is connected to the divine world, you haven’t been able to give up the material desires of this world.”
“It’s the same for your father.”
“……I am not the servant chosen by God.”
“Do you really think this is God’s choice and God’s power?”
Light radiated from Christine’s hand.
Just looking at it was a cozy and warm light.
[Heal] is the basic skill of the Priest.
“Oh, as expected, my daughter. She is a priest who has received the grace of an angel.”
“…….”
Angel’s grace?
Christine was so dumbfounded that she was at a loss for words.
I tried explaining the evil nature of angels several times, but I couldn’t communicate with my father.
“So, is your fiancé taking advantage of God’s gift?”
“yes…….”
“What level is it?”
“They said it’s level 29. It’s consistently ranked 2nd or 3rd in all districts.”
“He seems to be quite skilled. Considering that he is of a higher level than our Jeffrey.”
Nathan smiled as if he was satisfied.
“So, I heard the preparations for the new business are going well?”
“I guess they are planning to create a social market for players. There are only a few days left until the opening.”
“As expected, being a member of a large corporation, it seems like you have an eye for items. I can’t believe you came up with such an idea on your own.”
“I wasn’t alone. I had a partner. He was also a prophet….”
“Prophet? What do you mean?”
When I asked her to elaborate, Christine waved her hand and said it was no big deal.
“I forgot the name, but my partner said he was a self-proclaimed prophet class. Can he see the future? He gave me information about the 7th round as if he was condescending, but I don’t know if it’s trustworthy. It’s pure nonsense.”
“There was a friend like that? He was a prophet….”
Nathan looked like he was struggling with something.
“In these turbulent times, there is no more attractive ability than seeing the future. How about becoming friends with that friend?”
“Well, that’s because they only say things I can’t believe, like I’m going to die or it’s dangerous.”
“Huh? What do you mean by that?”
Christine told her father that she was in danger after the 11th round.
“It’s just a nonsense prophecy. You shouldn’t listen to it.”
“…….”
But what father would stand still if his daughter died?
“I want to meet that prophet.”
“That won’t happen. There’s no way the prophecy will come true.”
“CEO Ma probably didn’t lie, right?”
“You must have been lucky. If you predict so vaguely, it is easy for anyone to guess correctly.”
“Hmm. So you’re saying you don’t believe in prophecy?”
“I don’t believe it. There’s no way I’m in danger.”
Christine’s rune is [Rune of Life].
This is an incredible rune that gives you experience points and bonus stats the more you heal an injured person or save a life.
Perhaps that’s why Christine was able to help people from the beginning when she learned heel, and was able to grow quickly.
Moreover, players who recognized Priest’s value flocked around her, so there was little danger.
It was like dozens of so-called meat shields had gathered around.
“Don’t let your guard down. Could it be that someone among the group following you betrays you?”
“Don’t worry. Have you forgotten that I am the district representative?”
There was no one who would disobey her orders as she had the power to rule.
“But if you have that kind of control, you can always be a target, right?”
“But there are more people who want to protect me and be with me than those who betray me. Don’t worry about your safety.”
“Yes, I guess that’s the case with you… but always be prepared for any unexpected situation.”
“Yes, father.”
“You had a hard time coming. Now go and rest.”
As Christine left the room, Nathan called Jeffrey, who was waiting at the door.
“Jeffrey.”
“Yes, pastor.”
“My daughter’s fiancé’s partner is said to be a prophet. He dares to prophesy. He would rather say nonsense than my daughter dying. Let’s check his background to see if he is a quack or not.”
“I will carry out my command in the name of Christ.”
As Jeffrey left, Nathan’s eyebrows went up.
‘I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but are you shaking my daughter with useless words?’
You must clearly understand what your intention is.
‘What if the prophecy goes wrong?’
I will make him experience hell early on.
* * *
After meeting with Christine, Ryu Min gave the same 7th round information to Russell.
-yes? All I have to do is remember this? Don’t give in to temptation?
-Do not be deceived by temptation.
Ryu Min smiled innocently as he recalled that meeting.
‘Why is everyone’s reaction the same?’
It’s not that I don’t want to tell you about round 7, that’s all I really need to remember.
‘There is no need or reason to say anything more than that. If I do that, I’ll end up ruining the 7th round.’
If you just remember the phrase “don’t be fooled by temptation,” you will be able to pass round 7 without difficulty.
‘It’s a little early, but I also leaked information to Christine that she would be saved in the 11th round.’
You throw the bait, all you have to do is get a bite.
Of course, it is he who has to save Christine, not her fiancé.
This was the reason why they did not say who would save them.
‘Because it’s obvious that my fiancé, Ma Gyeong-rok, will be jealous if I tell him that the Black Scythe will save him.’
Therefore, it was best to hide it for now so as not to ruin the relationship between Ma Gyeong-rok and Black Scythe.
Because once a knot is broken, it is difficult to tie it again.
‘If you want to use Ma Gyeong-rok, it’s best to maintain the best relationship possible.’
After that, Ryumin was absent for a while.
The only things I did at home were shopping for today’s items and combining magic stones.
[‘Lesser Green Magic Stone’ has been created.]
[Combination successful!]
[The ‘Dexterity +4’ option is added to Hermes’ feather hat.]
‘With this, I embedded low-level magic stones into all equipment.’
The lower level is followed by the intermediate level.
The recipe is just to combine two low-level pieces.
The method for making rewards was the same.
‘There is one lowest grade magic stone left of each color, but it would be good to have it for now.’
Just because it’s the lowest level doesn’t mean it’s useless.
As long as you have a lot of magic stones, you can upgrade them to intermediate or advanced level by combining them as many times as you like.
‘In a few days, Player Place will be opening. If it goes as expected, people will be posting to sell not only magic stones but also various combination materials.’
If you sweep away all the magic stones at that time, you can create a higher level through repeated combinations.
Maybe even the highest grade magic gemstone.
‘And I need to seize the material items I need and create unique items.’
There are various ways to obtain unique items, such as killing boss-level monsters or receiving quest rewards.
‘Among them, combination is the easiest.’
It wasn’t difficult because I had it all figured out in my head.
‘The problem is the supply of materials.’
Once the player place is opened, that part is also resolved.
‘Of course, a lot of people should use it.’
It is said that Ma Gyeong-rok has already entrusted it to an advertising agency to collect the influx.
‘They say they gave the reporter some extra money and had him write an article, but where… … .’
When Ryumin types ‘Player Place’ into the internet search bar, he sees the exposed articles.
[The first player market opens on June 11th!]
[A market will be created for players? The world’s first social market is scheduled to open.]
[Register and sell items you don’t need! Planned to open.]
There are several articles floating around about how many reporters were hired.
At this point, the large-scale promotion is already over.
‘Now I’ll have to leave it to heaven.’
Before that, there are still places to promote.
Since it was Sunday, Ryu Min was dressed for going out.
“I’ll go out for a moment.”
“Okay, bro.”
After going to a place without CCTV, I put on the feather bristles and cast the skill.
‘Invisibility.’
Slurp-
Ryumin’s appearance of assimilating with his surroundings soon disappeared.
