Divine power is also a type of mana.
So, I couldn't avoid the power of knowledge and insight gained from the stat awakening pills.
This pastor is oblivious to the fact that he is dealing with something.
This side clearly shows the change.
'Is it a difference in insight?'
First of all, I learned it during the process of making holy water.
Divine power is similar to cancer cells.
Perhaps these properties are what promote healing and recovery.
But it's strange.
Only at first was the division of divine power actively taking place.
It became quiet towards the end of the production of the sacred object.
'Ah! So that's how division occurs when mana is stimulated.'
Then it disappears naturally.
It is a cancer cell that divides infinitely when stimulated by mana, but is harmless to the human body.
It only helped with healing along with the mana in the body and then disappeared.
'That's why Pastor Lee is fine even though he only deals with divine power.'
It would only be used to draw on the mana mixed in the atmosphere when dealing with healing powers.
I understand.
So, there is only one question left.
'This safe divine power caused an incurable disease?'
I don't understand.
It seemed like further verification was needed.
'I guess we'll have to see another divine addict to find out.'
At first, I was so confused that I didn't have time to look closely.
If I had known this would happen, I would have watched more closely.
As I was licking my lips in regret, Pastor Lee gestured.
"This time, I want to make garlic into a sacred object. Can you help me?"
"Oh, yes!"
"Okay, just lift up the other side of the cannon."
Oh. It's hard to put in effort.
But wouldn't it be different if the strength stat was 2?
"Keuuuuuup!"
"Haha, you're not very strong for your size. It's okay. I'll carry it."
It was impossible.
What the heck is this bunch of garlic that's so heavy?
I thought it was some kind of concrete powder bag.
"How are you, have you gotten the hang of it?"
"Yes, roughly. I can't give you the blessings or holy signs needed to make holy relics, but I can do other things."
"Good! Come here."
This is a pastor with a sling on both shoulders.
Aren't you a paladin, not a relic maker?
You're a strong businessman.
Chorus!
He poured the garlic into the holy water he had prepared.
Garlic contains trace amounts of mana.
The divine power in the holy water stimulated by it made the garlic plump.
But some of them showed no change, as if they had no mana left.
"I guess I should inject some mana here."
"You figured it out before I even said anything? That's surprising."
"Because I have good eyesight."
I point to my eyes and get to work.
Chop the garlic with 1 mana.
Next to him, Pastor Lee began making the sacred object with blessings and the sign of the cross.
[Skillfully assists others with their crafting skills.]
[This is quite insightful!]
Is it because of the increased insight?
It's easier to understand the flow and assist than before.
Insight is also greatly stimulated and is quickly rising to the next stat.
"It's great, just like Dong-sik said! I didn't know things would become this easy."
"Haha, is that so?"
"It's true. If I were alone, I would have had to sort through each garlic clove and make the sacred relic. But it end ed so quickly...."
Pastor Lee is amazed by my assistant skills.
It looks like you've been going through a lot of hardships on your own.
It was obvious that they were happy with the much easier production process.
After that, it was put into various productions.
Making rosaries, making spices to put in censers, etc.
The relics were more diverse than expected, and production assistance had to be provided accordingly.
[Insight stat increases!]
'nice!'
My stats went up by one more point.
It was more effective to be more proactive than when I first helped Jeong Ji-su.
'If I raise my insight by 30,000 more, will I clear the quest?'
Well begun is half done.
But I actually got about halfway done.
"Thanks to you, I finished early. I thought that a messenger from heaven had come down to help me with this work."
"Haha, that's too much praise. So are you done with your work for today?"
"Yes. You said you were going to buy a relic. I'll give you a discount, so come to the office."
He leads the way with a satisfied look on his face.
That's when I came out of the basement.
"Pastor! My brother, please save him! Please!"
It's an urgent cry.
A woman was seen supporting a man in front of the entrance.
Judging by his attire, he's a hunter.
They seemed to have rushed here without even changing their armor.
"I heard a rumor! It's said that it can cure divine addiction. Please, no matter how much it costs...!"
"Kreuk! Kkuaaaak!"
He convulses, making a boiling sound.
The neck of the man who had raised his head was visible.
'That's....'
Pastor Lee said it.
He said that he was only interested in gaining weight and divine power.
As he said, the area around the man's neck was swollen and bumpy.
The flesh moves as if it is in progress.
His eyes are white and his nose is wrinkled.
The direction was this pastor.
"Kkaaa!"
"Whoa!"
A woman who cannot overcome a man's strength lets him go.
A man who runs straight towards Pastor Lee.
What should I do? Should I step forward? But if you use the Guardian, that person will die.
You cannot use the Flame Dragon's Spear in front of witnesses.
If you feel it is really dangerous, you have the ability to avoid this one body.
'Let's trust this pastor.'
"conflict!"
Production Skill Hunter's Cry.
Throw something at the approaching battle skill hunter.
"Kwaaak!"
He asked it.
Is that a cross?
It was like throwing a bone to a dog!
"Even if it's a little rough, please understand!"
While the man on the cross was distracted.
The pastor quickly brought a rope and tied him up.
It's quick and accurate work.
It wasn't the first or second time I'd done it.
"Whew, the fire was put out."
The scene I saw when I first came here was recreated.
A man tied to the altar.
He has a seizure as he seeks divine power.
They sprinkle holy water on him and feed him garlic.
"Ugh! What should I do with my brother...."
...
-- --
Next to her, a woman who brought a man was just stomping her feet.
I observed the man silently.
'Why doesn't that man's divine power disappear?'
The division doesn't stop.
That's why there's swollen flesh around the neck.
The result was that cell division continued without stopping as divine power continued to restore the power.
'Even the mana you breathe in is converted into divine power.'
Suppressing this was the pastor's holy relic.
A new divine power that meets the divine power that was continuing the division.
The two forces were mixed together.
'I feel neutralized. The division has stopped.'
But it was a stopgap measure.
His divine power has grown even larger by absorbing new divine power.
If that starts dividing again, it will cause even greater cell proliferation and seizures than now.
"Excuse me, teacher."
"Ugh. Yes?"
I approached the crying woman and asked her.
"How did it turn out like that? It looks like you used a sacred relic or potion imbued with divine power."
"Yes, that's right. I only used Shinsungkuk products because they were said to be effective. Then I heard a rumor
that an incurable disease was prevalent, so I recently stopped using them. But during the gate raid, like that... Hehe."
I heard it again.
The Holy Land. The initial hotbed of sacred addiction.
'There didn't seem to be anything particularly strange about what Pastor Lee made.'
So the problem lies with the Holy Land?
There needed to be something to compare it to.
When I get home, I should buy some holy relics from the shrine.
'I should compare it with Pastor Lee's.'
Having made that determination, I approached Pastor Lee, who had just completed his baptism.
"Are you done?"
"Yes. It seems like the number of people addicted to the Holy Spirit is increasing."
We looked at the man and woman bitterly.
A bewildered man and a woman crying while hugging him.
It's a good time.
"It seems that we will be able to sell only a small amount of the sacred relics than expected."
"I understand. We also have to consider the possibility that more people like that may come."
"Thank you for your understanding. Are you coming tomorrow too?"
"I think I'll keep visiting for a while. Is that okay?"
"Haha, Brother Kim Seo-jin is always welcome."
Pastor Lee, who had brought the incident to a close, handed me the holy relic.
A small amount, as I said.
Still, it didn't seem to be lacking compared to the sacred relics of the Holy Nation.
***
The stability of divine power had to be firmly established.
I'm planning on applying it to the Guardian Bracelet I'm making anyway, so it can't be dangerous even in the slightest.
"Is this the sacred relic in question?"
This is a sacred relic purchased through the community.
I arranged them by type and began comparing them with what Pastor Lee had made.
"hmm?"
I realized the difference after seeing it a few times.
There is something entangled only in the sacred country.
'It's not divine power.'
Unfortunately, it was difficult to know with today's insight.
the important thing is that we discovered it.
But as time passed, there was no answer. What's going on?
'If you don't accept it, just send it below.'
So I contacted the seller of sacred relics in the Holy Land.
Surely, for a small price, I'll tell you.
Because this is your chance to get the Meister's items, not anyone else's.
-I'm sorry, Master. The secret to making the holy relic is a top secret known only to you, the saint. I don't have any information about it either.
-Then where is Broyan? He hasn't answered my phone.
-The saint has now entered a period of regular prayer. For the time being, he will cut off all contact and focus on praying to God.
-Do you know when it will come out?
-Yes. Unfortunately, we don't know.
It failed.
The only manufacturer was Broyan.
He is not answering my calls at the moment.
It became a state where I couldn't know until I received it.
'Then I have no choice but to increase my insight and find out.'
It's unfortunate, but there's nothing we can do.
It seemed like he had no choice but to wait for the right time while working as an assistant for the time being.
-Brother! We're almost there!
"Hey, this side is also ready, so come slowly and carefully with your friend!"
-Hehehe, yeah!
These are the days when I help Pastor Lee with his work and gain insight.
And today.
The day of the final battle has finally dawned.
This is Heejin's first friend invitation.
An invitation to someone's home that everyone else does.
It was something I couldn't even imagine when I was living in a small room.
Now, children can confidently invite friends to their home and create good memories.
'This is all thanks to the enchantment skill. I'm so proud.'
I stared at the kitchen that was set up.
What I learned while raising my younger sibling was living skills and cooking on my own.
The kind of things you can cook even with shaky hands due to the aftereffects. Now, even the delicate dexterity has been revived, and a neat and splendid Korean meal has been completed.
'Galbijjim made with real beef ribs, not pork neck! Real soybean paste stew, not just a soup with a savory soybean paste flavor!'
There is real bean sprout salad, not just seasoned bean sprouts, and various kinds of vegetables.
It's been a while since I've cooked with such fresh ingredients.
I hope Heejin's friend is happy.
'Then, while the kids are here, should I talk to Shin Joo-hee?'
He is one of the best climbers who has successfully conquered the first floor as my proxy climber.
I heard they're going to start raiding the second floor soon.
So I was just asking if they had the necessary equipment.
- Master, I am really fine. I am already receiving so much grace, and more than anything, the tower is sufficient with its current equipment.
-No. I can't neglect the prospects I've chosen. So, think about it today and tell me. Do you understand?
-Okay. Then I'll tell you about my promise with the friend I made for the first time today.
As expected, when you speak strongly, you answer quickly.
Very good.
By the way, this is the first friend I've made.
Is Shin Joo-hee a loner like me?
'I feel a sense of kinship. I want to do better.'
It's true that I laughed so bitterly.
Beep beep beep. I jumped up at the sound of the door lock.
'You came!'
Who is the cute friend that received our Heejin's first invitation?
I walked to the front door with a smile on my face.
"Hey, Oppa! I brought a friend! I told you I'd make something delicious today, right? That's why neither I nor my friend ate lunch? Good job!"
"Haha, good job. Get ready to eat a lot today, both of you! So, what about your friend?"
"He's coming in now. Oh, he's here."
Heejin and I had our heads pinned to the front door.
Knock, knock. The clear sound of shoes.
He soon appears in front of the entrance.
A cool-looking beauty wearing a cool blue one-piece dress and beige shoes.
He greeted me with a tense, stiff face.
"Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm Shin Joo-hee, Hee-jin's friend."
"uh."
"Huh? Oppa, you're frozen. I guess you're frozen because Joohee is so pretty!"
"Huh? So, what?"
The look of confusion is just like what we saw on TV.
I just opened my mouth blankly.
So, that... uh....
Why are you Heejin's friend?
..
