Chapter 1501 – 1501. The Abandoned World
[The quest has been completed.]
[Quest reward will be given.]
[You have achieved the ending achievement, ‘Sacrifice’.]
[Acquire ‘Miracle’.]
[Acquire 261 points.]
Back to reality
I looked down at my hands with a slightly blank look. It seemed that the burning sensation was still there.
‘… No, now is not the time for that.’
Death. The black ground that seemed to be itself and the eerie red sky.
Now I was in another world.
‘Even though it’s urgent, it’s not that I can’t afford it at all. I entered the paladin world and spent several months… Actually, less than a minute has passed.’
I first checked the things I got this time.
[Sung Eugene
Level: 85
Strength: 110 Stamina: 110 Agility: 110 Intelligence: 110 Stamina: 110 Mana: 110]
[Available Points: 36,540]
Thanks to being in the paladin world for a long time, the points accumulated quite a bit.
‘Excluding the points I had previously accumulated, I got roughly 20,000 points.’
The next quest reward is Incarnation. I got the paladin quest to get this.
[Appearance
Call and recreate yourself in the desired ending world.
Incarnation’s duration and ability reappearances depend on your stat total.
Price: 10,000 points
※Caution
All penalties applied are reproduced.]
I plan to break through the altar using the power of the present.
‘I’ll be able to wipe out the guys around the altar. The target to use incarnation is… Is the emperor better? Or a paladin?’
After thinking about it, I remembered that there was something I got as a reward for the ending achievement.
[Miracle
It’s called a miracle because it can’t happen.
Price: 500,000 points
※Caution
I don’t know how the miracle will happen.]
I read the miraculous information and scratched my head. Looking at the price, it seems to be an incredibly good item, but when I tried to use it, I couldn’t hide my ambiguity.
‘How do miracles come about? Can I simply use it when I’m in trouble?’
Shall we use it now?
A miracle might happen and everything would be solved.
‘I feel like a waste when I try to write it. Let’s try it once when there is no way to fix it. Things could go wrong when I took over the altar…. It wouldn’t be bad to keep it just in case.’
As I was about to put my smartphone in my pocket, I became curious about Paladin’s ending. To be precise, I wonder what would have happened to Amelia, a saint in the paladin world.
‘Could you check it out? You won’t know what happened after I died in that world.’
[Paladin: Journey of Destruction] Confirmed the ending of the world. Didn’t get past the black screen. I expected it, but it’s a bit disappointing. I accidentally tapped the black screen.
[Do you want to spend 3,000 points to see the world after the ending?]
I hesitated.
‘You can check the world after the ending? Of course check…. No, wait. 3,000 points?’
3,000 points was by no means a small number.
600 points are required to raise my stats right now. In other words, 3,000 points is worth 5 ability points.
‘But I can’t stand being curious!’
Shouted
3,000 points are gone.
[Check the world after the ending.]
The black screen of the smartphone began to light up.
The screen reflected the [Paladin] World.
Light fell from the sky. The light illuminated the center of the plaza where the annihilation ritual was taking place, the place where I, the paladin of Valentier, had died.
My body was not there.
There were only burnt crosses and traces of firewood.
Vatican citizens cheered and said.
-The goddess took Paladin!
– Paladins have been called by the heavens!
-Paladin annihilated the soul of the great devil and received the call of the heavens and was born as an archangel!
Citizens started chattering among themselves, speculating on the situation. Priests and paladins, who are supposed to control the citizens, raise their prayers toward the sky with impressed expressions.
I tsk and clicked my tongue.
“I was reborn as an archangel? Then I can’t be in real life. That’s a goddess putting on a show.”
To me, it was a goddess political show. It is to lower her light so that she does not forget her own existence. The light must have obliterated my corpse.
“Goddess year. The skill of putting a spoon on my achievements is not common.”
I wanted to see something else.
‘How do you rotate the screen? I want to see Amelia.’
A finger taps the screen.
The screen has changed. The saintess, Amelia, appeared on the screen. She closed her eyes and prayed to the goddess.
-Goddess Herianne, please give Paladin a comfortable rest….
Amelia’s closed eyes spilled clear tears down her cheeks. I watched her for a while and then licked her lips. It was because she remembered the taste of her pussy.
‘The time acceleration button… Here you are.’
A fast-forward began around Amelia. A funeral in honor of me was not held separately, but a huge statue representing me was created in the center of the plaza. I was satisfied with the appearance of him wearing armor and holding an execution sword.
Amelia became the powerhouse of the Church.
The pope died, and there were no other paladins or saints. With the blessing of the goddess, she was able to use enormous divine power, and she was also my wife who defeated the great demons. She had no lumber to lead her Order but her.
– Oh!
Amelia gave birth successfully.
The baby born was a boy. The baby’s name was John. The baby grew up quickly.
The world has never been so peaceful.
The demons, who had hidden away from my eyes and hid in the depths, slowly started their activities. Paladins were dispatched to subdue the demons.
No new paladins appeared. The goddess judged that even without a paladin, she could solve problems with humans.
‘Because there is no great devil. And when Blaat died, the goddess must have been hurt to some extent.’
Corruptors appeared even without demons.
It was unavoidable. Corruption is close to the system of this world. Even if demons are extinct, the moment humans are defeated by their desires, corrupters will ceaselessly arise.
However, the Great Demon does not exist, and demons are no longer born. With that alone, the world flows peacefully.
When John became a boy, the human world changed rapidly.
The nobles began to escape from the church’s management. The beginning was insignificant and meaningless, but more and more people abandoned their faith. The nobles gathered forces, expanded their territories, and started a war.
‘Well, it seemed so.’
Thought it insignificant. Even in history, wars continued to occur. Warfare continues from antiquity to modern times.
‘Still, the church will not be shaken as long as Amelia is alive.’
When John was 30 years old, Amelia succeeded to the papacy and she returned to the status of a saint. She stayed at the sanctuary of Valentier and prayed to her goddess every day was her daily routine.
She stayed in her sanctuary and continued to pray.
Pray every day. Being sincere was an understatement.
Some more time has passed.
The church and the nobility pointed their swords at each other. There was a reason, but it didn’t matter. In the end, a human-human war ensued.
Amelia just prayed. Even after decades, her radiant appearance remained the same. The immense divine power she possesses is what embeds her aging.
And Amelia died.
In the sanctuary.
She died quietly in front of the statue of the Goddess.
The goddess gave her light and took away her body and soul. Amelia’s body and soul ascended to heaven.
The screen went dark. She tapped the screen with her finger a few times, but there was no response.
Feeling bitter, I put my smartphone in.
•••
[You can find the Altar of Brahmasen and activate it to open a dimensional door to return to Earth. A sacrifice is required to activate the altar.]
I didn’t forget the piece of battery’s answer.
It is not enough just to occupy the altar. Occupy the altar and offer the sacrifice. The problem is that they didn’t explain in detail what the offering was.
‘Maybe we should sacrifice Brahmasen’s follower near the altar. So don’t kill them all. The best thing would be to capture the four priests around the altar.’
Kill more than half of Brahmasen’s followers, capture the priest and order him to activate the altar.
‘Start.’
Use sage
The target was not the emperor, but the paladin. In terms of strength alone, the emperor might be stronger. However, it was difficult to predict how the emperor would turn out. In terms of stability, Paladin is better.
[Use the manifestation.]
[Paladin: Invoke yourself from the world of Journey to Destruction.]
[All penalties are applied.]
[The manifestation lasts for 2 hours.]
“…….”
I closed my eyes and opened them.
Kiyiying.
The Holy Eye is activated and Brahmasen’s followers come into sight. These souls are corrupted. [Paladin: Journey of Destruction] Worse than the corrupters of the world. Because I went mad with the fallen.
“I want to wipe it all out.”
I opened the status window while feeling the divine power firmly established within me.
[Name: Eugene

[Paladin] The world status window pops up. However, this status window was not very helpful.
‘[Paladin] You are weaker than me in the world. It must be the effect of the game life app’s ability level.’
Summons Stormbreaker. Stormbreaker became armor and clung to my body. Also summoned the execution sword from the inventory.
The blade of the Executioner Sword, which can only be used by Paladins, glowed golden in response to my will.
‘Wings of Dawn.’
A pair of wings of light appeared behind his back. The wings of light move and my body floats in the air.
Sensing my presence, the attention of Brahmasen’s followers turns to me in unison. Brahmasen’s followers began to charge at me like animals that have found their prey.
Instead of bowing, I swung my sword.
‘Divine Emission!’
The enormous divine power became a tidal wave that swept away Brahmasen’s followers.
