Humanity Itself is Strong - Chapter 6
“Huh…?” That’s……?”
Lee Yeo-jin looked at the card that emerged where the blue God was.
“I think it’s a card……?” “……it’s a tarot card.”
Lee Jin-Seong laughed despondently.
“Was this also something I had to do?”’
It wouldn’t be a coincidence that the blue God became a tarot card.
‘I don’t know what this tarot is meant to be, but it’s giving continuous rewards.’
Lee Jin-Seong grabbed the tarot card with questions that he had yet to reach a conclusion. The picture on the card he received this time was different from the Joker he received.
It was a picture of the sun shining down on a boy riding a white horse with a red flag. In this painting, the boy’s hair, as well as clothes and flags were flying.
Then the picture of the card disappeared and the letters appeared.
+ Name: The Sun Rating: Major Arcana Description: A catalyst that allows you to break out of causality and make a contract with any being. Registered Contracts: 0/1 +
“This is……?”
Lee Jin-Seong got goosebumps all over his body as soon as he checked the card’s explanation.
‘……I can sign a contract with any being……?’
The contract described here is not a contract between a person and a person or a business entity. Usually, it is called a contract to borrow power from beings not attributed to this three-dimensional space, such as spirits, divinities, or demons.
In this day and age, only Lee Jin-Seong’s teachers and regressors signed contracts with a high-ranking spirit.
+ Currently, there is a high-level presence waiting for your contract.
Name of target waiting for contract: Unknown Rank of target waiting for contract: God King Likeability: He is feeling a great favor for you because you saved his life. He wants a ‘direct contract’. The unnamed God wants to support your will. ※The target is significantly weakened. His vitality is almost gone. +
‘It’s not a high-ranking spirit. It’s a God……?’
There are two things in the contract. Direct contracts literally refer to direct support of one’s power to the contractor. Indirect contracts mean lending part of one’s power or authority. Therefore, it was common sense that higher-level spirits should sign indirect contracts.
‘…… is this blue God going to stick with me from now on?’
So this blue God meant that he would immediately help Lee Jin-Seong whenever he needed power through a direct contract.
A contract with a God. No matter how mysterious the world is, it was hard to find the existence of God. There are, but it’s the first heroes to play decades ago.
There were only regressors.
“This is crazy……”
He expected to get a much better reward than a Purple Heart, but this was too much. As the atmosphere of Lee Jin-Seong became serious, Lee Yeo-jin, who was nervous, asked.
“What’s going on……?” “Well, I might make a contract with the God.” “A contract……?!”
Lee Yeo-jin shouted after being speechless for a while.
“No way… ..like the first heroes?!””
Lee Yeo-jin had heard this from her grandfather. There was a story she heard like a lullaby from her grandfather, who was one of the greatest heroes.
“The seventh demon was crushed to death by the finger of a God.’
Her grandfather’s words buried far away from my memory popped up in her mind. Lee Yeo-jin shouted, much more excited than Lee Jin-Seong.
“Are you going for the Demon God?”” “……Huh?” “That’s what my grandfather did! With God’s power, we can kill the Demon God!” “Oh… yes, yes…….” “No way, how could this happen!”
Of course, the Demon God that the grandfather killed was the weakest among them and was not worth naming, but Lee Jin-Seong did not explain it because he thought it would take too time.
Lee Jin-Seong was lost in thought, leaving the raging Lee Yeo-jin alone.
‘He must have cast a Shinsu.….’
Regression, which was called the Savior before binary regression. Yushin. Regressionist Yushin was a spirit monarch who not only possessed the spirits but also performed the divinity. In addition, Shinsu were beings with strength that were almost no different from God.
He predicted the emergence of the tower and prevented a catastrophe in the world. In short, they found the Demon God-like dungeon, which was on the verge of an out.
However, the great regress was eventually killed by Kim Jun-oh, who acquired the purple heart.
Then how strong is God who had the purple heart……. It was hard for Lee Jin-Seong to even imagine.
The blue God, or this unnamed God, asked for a simple contract.
+ To drive out the evil spirits of the world. This unnamed God will cooperate until then, or until all his magic is gone. +
This was the request of an unnamed God.
‘You look like a pushover.’
That was an honest appreciation. Contracts with God, the enforcement of the New Testament, are absolute. Even if this unnamed God had another idea, Lee Jin-Seong would not have lost anything according to the contract.
“What he couldn’t do in his own world, does he want to do here?”
According to the murals, this unnamed God was destroyed by the red canaries of his world, and he was also killed.
‘……Is he emotionally involved?’
And the situation on this planet was no different. There are various kinds of magic in the world today. Even a decade later, red monsters pour out like a disaster with a black mast.
+ The unnamed God wants to save this world from the red canaries. The red ghosts will soon devour the earth, too. There is no requirement but to prevent them. +
Lee Jin-Seong nodded at the phrase.
What God wanted to do after returning from death was nothing else.
Revenge.
He said he wanted to save this world. Underneath it was a deep resentment and anger against the demons who destroyed his world.
It was a simple and convincing reason. So Lee Jin-Seong accepted the contract.
+ The contract has been concluded. +
When I accepted the contract, the letters appeared on the tarot card.
Tsusu ssusu sisu sisu…
It was not long before the words disappeared that a picture of “The Sun” appeared. The picture of a boy riding a horse with a sun and a flag was one thing different from before.
The yellow sun was shining blue.
Ring!
Suddenly, a tarot window appeared in front of his face, where only Lee Jin-Seong could be seen.
[The unnamed God is happy with your contract]
It was a message from the God who just signed the contract.
“Well…….”
Lee Jin-Seong, who has never used a system window before felt like here was something uncomfortable about the window of the tarot card.
Then, Lee Yeo-jin asked carefully.
“……What’s wrong?” “No, I think a fly has passed by.”
Like the system used by awakeners. The tarot window that pops up to Lee Jin-Seong was also thoroughly personal, so no one could see it.
So the dungeon attack was over. Lee Jin-Seong took Lee Yeo-jin to a safe town.
Lee Yeo-jin thanked him, saying she had enough data. She packed crystal balls and a few more slabs.
“My father will be here soon. Let’s go together.” “No…… I have somewhere else to go.”
Lee Jin-Seong shook his head when he heard that she called her father.
‘It’s not time to get involved with her father yet.’
Lee Yeojin’s father, Lee Young-woo. He was the son of the first hero, the eye opener, and now a successful businessman. In addition, he was one of the most influential people with a strong background.
Lee Jin-Seong changed the subject.
“Have you had enough research?” “What…… Is research important…… You saved my life thanks to Jin-Seong…….”
She somehow became ashamed as she said it. At first, she misunderstood Lee Jin-Seong as a bad person.
“Well, can I ask you a favor?” Yeo-jin nodded quickly at Lee Jin-Seong’s words.
“Of course! I’ll do anything for you!” “Then, can you send a bus to Somang Nursery School in Gangwon-do?”
Lee Yeo-jin tilted her head but immediately agreed.
“I see…… But why?” “I have to move the children there.”
And Lee Jin-Seong told Lee Yeo-jin the time, place, and number of people in detail.
“I’ll call you, so just give me your number.” “Oh, oops, yes, yes……!”
And I memorized her number in my head.
“Oh, don’t you want to write it down? You might forget…….” “It’s all right.”
Paper and pens are very precious in orphanages, so he memorized almost anything in his head. And Lee Jin-Seong was so smart that he remembered roughly and memorized it for over a year.
“I’ll get back to you within today.” “Yes, yes! I’ll have a bus waiting in town right away! Take care! Thank you very, very much!”
She greeted deeply one after another. Lee Yeo-jin looked at him until he disappeared from view.
And when he disappeared from sight, she took out her cell phone and called somewhere. She took off her big horn-rimmed glasses.
Beeeep.
<Yes, miss.>
With a call, she said.
“Secretary Jeong, please send a large bus to Kimhwa-eup, Gangwon-do right away. Also, could you arrange accommodation for about 40 children in Seoul?”
She began to dictate to her secretary.
“So…… the Purple Heart had already been robbed?”
Chief Kim, who put his legs on the desk in the office, was looking into the combat knife returned by Lee Jin-Seong.
“Yes.”
Lee Jin-Seong lied calmly. No Purple Hearts were found in the dungeon, he reported.
“……the guys who guarded the entrance said there was no purple heart?”
Lee Jin-Seong and Lee Yeo-jin did not meet the gang because they came out of the dungeon through secret channels.
That’s why they couldn’t find the Purple Heart in the dungeon.
Lee Jin-Seong was still supposed to be in the dungeon.
“I must have been mistaken.”
But shamelessly, Lee Jin-Seong came back to nursery school and was talking nonsense.
“Haha, is he crazy…….”
Kim, who opened his eyes, smiled in vainly. It was then.
Squeak…
As the office door opened, two burly men came in with pistols. Lee Jin-Seong, who was looking back, looked at Kim.
“Don’t you believe me?”
Squeak.
Chief Kim, who sat upright in the chair, asked with a scary face this time without laughing.
“The Purple Heart. Where is it?”
Then he spun around with his Combat knife on his desk.
“I don’t have it.” “……if you make me say it twice, you’re dead.”
Kim jibbed at the big men who came into the office. At the signal, big men began to stand on both sides of Lee Jin-Seong.
But Lee Jin-Seong laughed.
“Didn’t you see what Director Choi posted?” “……What?” “Are you trying to intimidate me with these little punks?”
Lee Jin-Seong knew from the beginning that those big guys would come in. Therefore, he thought it would be better to deal with it at once when everyone came in.
It was that moment.
Booom!
Lee Jin-Seong inserted his elbow into the side of the big man on the left.
What?!
Shocked by the sudden liver, the big guy collapsed on the floor.
Boom!
The one on the right was stepped on and crushed.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The office was filled with screams in an instant. Chief Kim allowed a surprise attack because he looked down on Lee Jin-Seong.
“You son of a bitch!”
Chief Kim belatedly began to respond. Jumped over the table and threw out a combat knife.
Whoops!
But it only stirred up the air.
“What the fuck?”
Lee Jin-Seong was slightly out of the way. Kim’s eyes were shining red like a beast. And Kim, the head of the department who turned into an animal, growled.
“I’ll kill you! Really!” “That’s not like you. I can’t believe you’re so worked-up today.”
Before he knew it, Lee Jin-Seong had a combat knife in his hand. The knife in Kim’s hand was taken without realizing it.
“Crrr! Die. You little bitch!”
He swung his claws quickly with his giant forearm.
but
Boom! Boom!
Kim, who quickly put a dagger into his chest, was pushed out of power and hit his back against the wall.
Growl!
Even though Kim was born in the form of a wolf, he could not even react. He was just howling in pain.
“Do you know what’s wrong with me……?”
Lee Jin-Seong spoke grimly. His face, which had been expressionless so far, slowly began to distort.
“The faces of the children you killed are still vivid…… so…….”
Crack!
Without hesitation, Jin-Seong twisted the knife and stabbed his heart.
“You should die, too.”
And he pulled out the blade.
Wooosh…!
Blood burst out of Chief Kim’s lungs and mouth.
