Chapter 609
Deep underground, intertwined like a tunnel.
In fact, a dim light shimmered faintly in a space that should be called a crypt.
Deep underground tunnels filled with the smell of rotting corpses and strange idols.
Somewhere in the deepest part of the tunnel.
A woman sat in the center of the cavity.
People lying around her were listening to her talk.
Do you remember the day the sky opened?
I saw the sight firsthand.
Do you know what my first words were then?
wow.
It’s hard to believe, but it’s true.
I don’t think I should say something like that after seeing something like that, but honestly, it was amazing.
When I see the rain of light falling from the sky, I can’t help but admire it even if it falls on my head.
too overwhelming
It was such a devastating sight.
Like a referee
Yes, it was the referee.
The judgment of light was falling on sinners.
It was heaven’s judgment upon the sinners who did not recognize the prophet and tried to torture, intimidate, and kill him.
Flashes of light hit the earth, and the warp gates that benefited people must now disappear from the world.
That day, I saw Demon King for the first time.
very sad
very sad
He was looking like he had given up on everything.
No one believed in me, so I had the eyes of having failed in everything.
Even so, the Demon King said.
How can I cope with what will happen in the future? How can I solve these things in a way that bleeds a little less?
You said it desperately.
That devil’s seed is struggling to survive.
They are threatening that something will happen if you don’t let them go.
Everyone must think so. I thought so too at the time.
But what the King said was true.
We had to pay a very high price for our sin of not recognizing the prophet.
I am one of those sinners.
It can’t be helped that so many people died. How many people were able to survive because of the words the demon king said?
Just as the dead cannot be counted, the survivors cannot be counted.
People don’t know the goodness of such a demon king. I’m not even going to tell you.
People who know the goodness of Maou don’t tell people about it. I have no intention of speaking.
Isn’t that strange?
Good kids get rewarded, bad kids get punished.
Why did the world’s best kid have to be the world’s worst kid? Should I be known as the worst kid in the world?
It’s strange.
It’s wrong. that kind of thing
There is such a saying because the world is like that, good people don’t get prizes, and the world was created so that bad people take everything. I know.
That’s not true, but let’s believe it.
That we should live kindly, then the gods might take pity on us who are good and kind and reward us with something.
Even if you don’t enjoy the glory alive, you might enjoy the glory when you die.
There must be a saying that you have to live a good life.
It’s all dog lies.
You all know.
If the good things done in life are not rewarded, they are simply not rewarded.
If the good things you tried to do in life turn out to be bad things, it’s just that the world is wrong.
Since the gate incident was caused by the devil’s subordinates, the devil might be wrong.
But isn’t that really the devil’s fault and not to blame?
If you believed in the Demon King.
If those who held power and held power listened even a little to Lord Maou’s words.
This wouldn’t have happened.
But nobody knows that.
It shouldn’t be like this.
Like this, putting crime and punishment on one person.
You shouldn’t be quiet with each other.
someone is a warrior
someone is king
Someone is the commander of the Knights Templar.
You are the Pope.
It’s for the sake of humans.
It’s for people.

You shouldn’t be arrogant and walking around.
as sinners.
He did everything wrong, so just hate him.
Because if we start to hate ourselves, the world might collapse. For such an unlikely reason, making the Lord Maou handle everything alone.
that kind of thing
it’s so embarrassing
too upset
sad
It’s disgusting.
The reason I kept you alive until now was because there was at least one thing similar to my thoughts.
The Demon King didn’t do anything wrong.
The Demon King is right.
The world is wrong.
We are wrong too.
All of you who believe in demonic religions are wrong people.
I didn’t recognize that the demon king was a prophet, and I was also wrong for starting to believe in him too late.
By the way, are the wrong people born in the wrong world? Or do we become the wrong people because we live in the wrong world?
I don’t know.
But, I know one thing.
If there is a mistake, it must be corrected.
That’s why I’ve educated you well until now.
I’m sorry I touched you at first, but I haven’t hit you or put needles under your fingernails since I listened to you.
You’ve seen until now that you believe in the Demonic Cult covered in the skin of the Cult of Heroes.
Of course, it was because the Demonic Cult that believed in the Demon Lord was better than the Cult of the Warriors.
anyway.
You’ve kept the veil over the truth for too long just because it’s reality.
The days when sinners walked so confidently through the world pretending not to be sinners were too long.
The saying that the truth is worthless in front of reality.
That there are things that need to be buried.
It is said that there are sins that need to be seen and overlooked.
The reality is so harsh that there are truths to be buried, people to be sacrificed, and people and groups to evade responsibility.
My ears hurt from listening to it so much.
therefore.
I won’t listen to things that hurt my ears anymore.
The empire and the main church, which had already lost their legitimacy a long time ago, no longer exist for humanity.
Everything else is just an excuse, they’re just monsters that exist for themselves.
Saying that you can just stay still, be patient for a bit, and think about it after all of this has passed.
I don’t believe any more
The world is just like this.
It doesn’t change.
The words of patience will continue forever.
If so, would you like to change it now?
I think it would be better to change it.
Rowen’s cold eyes glowed as she spoke to those who fell face down.
“wake up.”
Those who fell prostrate rise from their seats.
“Let’s show the real reality.”
“To those who condoned many sins, lied and deceived the people.”
“I have to show those who were silent and patient for now how sick the world is.”
“When chaos happens on a scale you can’t control.”
“The moment they pay back the sins they have committed so far.”
“I want to see what expressions they make.”
“I think it is time to germinate the seeds of division that have been buried in the name of this unworthy cause, in the name of a time for humanity to rally.”
Rowen knew that if killing the cultists would only make them grow like weeds, it would be better to grow trees.
Rowen did not hunt the cultists.
That the infidels in the refugee camp were not the culprits in the theft of the ashes. She had to know from the start.
Because they couldn’t do what she didn’t ask them to do.
That’s why it was easy to reach the other hinterland of the empire.
Rowen raised the heretics into giant trees, and put the masters of the giant trees under his control.
The masters of the trees are terrified slaves, unable to think of anything but obedience under the torture and suffering they endured for so long.
“So, you guys don’t have to live here any longer.”
“This, too, will be the will of the gods.”
“I believe so.”
As such, she was the master of all paganism, without believing in paganism.
* * *
I know where Rowen is. However, the scope was too wide.
We will soon find out who Rowen has recruited. However, in most cases, there was no such thing as a proper identity for the people in the refugee camp.
The popes gave orders, and Rowen carried them out.
But the Popes were not aware of the refugee camp’s broad map of pagan powers and the specific leaders of each.
I left it alone, assuming that Rowen would take care of it.
But now that information has become important, I had to find it.
It’s not a long job either.
Two days at most, three days at most.
That much would have been enough to find out where Rowen was.
But time is not always given as much as needed.
Destruction is sudden.
As if the sky suddenly opened, the gate suddenly opened and the world became like this after the situation became like this.
The reason for the destruction is trivial.
As if a few trivial misunderstandings and misunderstandings overlapped and brought about destruction.
Momentum is often not particularly great.
– Kill! Kill!
“… … .”
I was watching a building in a refugee camp burn.
Countless people were trampling on the corpses of those who had fallen and throwing them into the fire.
It is a common sight.
Murders are common in refugee camps.
But this time the direction is different.
Refugees killed the guards.
They took the spears of the guards and stabbed their corpses.
It wasn’t the shacks in the refugee camp that were burning.
The headquarters of the guards were burning.
In the snow, I watched the vengeful and mad refugees burn down the headquarters of the guards.
Revenge for the persecution and oppression that they had suffered so far was taking place.
A very small amount of violence is enough to open the waters of hatred. Guards are also just people.
The moment I realized that their violence was not absolute, it was a set procedure for this flow to collapse.
A large-scale riot broke out in the Hwangdo refugee camp.
They were killing the guards and burning the guards headquarters.
Getting started is easy.
And the moment it started, even the person who started it wouldn’t be able to control this huge flow of revenge.
* * *
“your majesty. It has to be suppressed.”
The emperor listened to the story with a firm expression.
Large-scale riots in the refugee camp area are killing guards and burning guards.
At first, it was just a small incident. But whoever started this, he knew that once he exploded his hatred for the guards, it would take care of itself even if he let go.
The guards are but a handful compared to everyone in the refugee camp. They managed to control the refugees somehow, but people can’t stand it anymore as long as it fails.
It doesn’t matter who started it.
Everyone has already turned their backs on the guards. All they needed was a gap.
To say they turned their backs on the guards is like saying they turned their backs on the Empire.
At this rate, the refugee camp will become a completely lawless zone.
And, the seething hatred won’t end just by raiding and killing the refugee camp’s guards and burning down their headquarters.
If the moment comes when that anger is directed at the imperial family.
What should I do then?
The ecliptic has long been a sand castle on the verge of collapsing.
The gunpowder was ready, waiting for the moment when whatever the fuse was to catch fire and explode.
Unless you can feed the refugees.
More than not being able to take care of their cold and hunger.
Unless you can provide them with a minimum of safety and convenience.
It just happened that one day it would happen. Whatever the cause, the problem is always the gunpowder, not the fuse.
But the empire cannot fall.
It shouldn’t even collapse.
Not yet.
can never collapse
“okay… … .”
People have been weighed down by the fear of the guards.
This riot broke out because hatred crossed the threshold of fear.
I can’t give you bread
because there is no bread
It cannot give the hungry and angry crowds everything they need.
There is only one thing the Empire can give them.
fear.
“Put in the army and knights. All those involved in this situation will be immediately punished.”
The only thing that can suppress hatred and anger.
fear.
Violence that can bring about that fear.
Unfortunately, the Empire was not rich, but strong.
more than ever.
* * *
Can a country that does not protect its people, but rather kills them, be called a country?
Of course, it can exist.
The state can continue to exist regardless of its legitimacy as long as it has the violence to sustain itself.
A large-scale riot broke out in Hwangdo Refugee Camp.
The guards were killed, and the headquarters of the guards was burned. The guards retreated to the imperial city with a massive withdrawal.
Temporarily, the refugee camp became a lawless zone.
But that violence didn’t solve everything.
The angry mob had to divert the arrows of its wrath somewhere and find a scapegoat.
But that’s for a while.
A bloody wind blew.
The Empire sent massive armies and knights to destroy any place that showed signs of violence.
A group of superhuman knights could single-handedly slaughter a crowd of hundreds of people mercilessly.
In addition to that, the riot was put to rest in an instant as the subjugation party that had been killing the monsters was put in to quell the riot.
Swords and spears that kill monsters worked better for people.
Violence caused by anger had no choice but to subside in the face of ruthless violence close to incomprehensibility.
The riot was short-lived.
Thousands of guards were killed.
However, in just a few days, hundreds of thousands of refugees were slaughtered.
The empire trampled on the outbursts of resentment, as if it were nailing that violence was only for the state.
Horror suppressed and suppressed everything.
But in the end, all justification was lost with this.
Everyone knows that the Empire exists for humanity is a lie.
The brief riots turned into massive carnage, and the raging crowds were overcome with fear and held their breath.
The Empire cannot support the refugees, but it can kill them all in a matter of days.
It was impossible to overthrow the Empire by riot.
The truth is just fine.
People still hate the devil.
Only one thing has changed.
People hate the empire too.
What is the difference between the devil and the empire?
People held their breath, but they started whispering that to each other while holding their breath.
