Return of the Legend chapter 1283

negotiation skills.
“This decree is dance-free! Oh my gosh! It’s property registration against a temple dedicated to the gods!”
“Words are donations, but this is extortion!”
“It is no different from heresy for a human being to engage in God’s work!”
fever broke out
The temple of Duera, the god of gold and wealth, famous for having many devotees, is the prayer room in the basement.
Three people who can be said to be the center of the large temple gathered in one place.
The managers of the temples that formed the largest power in the present temporary eclipse.
Displeasure spread deep on the faces of the high-ranking priests.
Suddenly, the emperor’s decree was issued.
All religious temples and facilities were to be registered with the Emperor’s Temple Department.
At the same time, the order to donate to the imperial family was added to help the people in tribulation.
Even in the form of a command, the contradiction is that it is not forced.
However, it was stated in the decree that the scope of permission for the imperial temples would be decided through this donation.
“Aren’t you going to set up a line? Donations are still being made in accordance with the financial equity of each temple. There is no need for the imperial family to come forward and talk about it!”
“Yes! A shrine is a specialized institution that worships the gods and provides relief to the poor. But why does the imperial family come forward and say this and that?”
“It should never happen. We must all stand up to the decree.”
The priests raised the heat by splashing their saliva.
But.
“… … .”
A moment of silence passed.
Even though he burst out in anger, his heart was not happy.
“… … Rumor has it that it was the Duke of Becker’s plan.”
“I heard the rumors too.”
“Shouldn’t the sides be raised to some extent?”
Take a moment to get angry.
I came back to the real problem and started thinking.
Now the continent was completely seized by the Kroyan Empire’s Revival Army.
Raden and Sarkhan Matap declared their support for the imperial family.
The Galgio Tower has decided to close for 20 years.
Galgio and Sarkhan Matap were severely damaged by the incident.
As a result of participating in the Royal Allied Forces, he had to bear huge losses.
It would take decades to restore power.
The kingdom and the nobility also withdrew to the fullest and became a small tree.
Kings and high-ranking nobles who fought in the Allied Forces are negotiating to pay reparations beyond imagination.
That was the level of dignity that Duke Becker showed!
The priests here also witnessed the situation firsthand.
Duke Becker, who treated the matap wine contaminated by the Gwangryong.
Even the highest level spirits sided with Duke Becker.
There was no one on the continent who dared to stand up to Duke Becker in the field where the dragon god Harkeus’ scabbard was also confirmed.
The position of the temple, one of the three major powers on the continent, is the same.
There was no such level of persecution even in the past imperial times.
It was an unwritten rule that he would never get involved in the affairs of the gods.
Unless it was a heresy or an evil god, those in power paid little attention to the affairs of the temple.
The temple was completely operated with donations.
It was not a tax, so it was ambiguous for those in power to get involved.
He knew well that maintaining close acquaintance with the shrine would help maintain the regime.
The treatment of the temple priests and the supply of holy water were essential for those in power.
But now things were different.
Outlaws were included in the Imperial Resurrection Army.
An imperial defense duke who exercises greater authority than the emperor.
The tower and the Allied Forces of the Kingdom were heavily crushed.
And now the target has turned to the temple.
Even in the midst of the chaos, the temple was reviving more and more.
In difficult and difficult times, the human mind tends to become weaker.
Donations poured in when you gave a few sermons to people who depend on God.
“Then let’s make a decision. Shouldn’t we keep pace with other temples?”
The high priest who served Ereka, the god of mercy, stepped forward.
“… … Donate in moderation. Wouldn’t the surplus of low-grade holy water and a suitable donation increase the imperial face?”
The High Priest of the Duera Temple, who usually gets the most donations, suggested a method.
He is always a quick-witted person.
“Let’s go strong! If you push it now, it’s over!”
A high priest who served Kabila, the god of war and fertility, insisted on a strong struggle.
“Hmm… … .”
The high priest of the Temple of Ereka, who was listening, groaned.
Not everyone was wrong.
‘The atmosphere is not good… … .’
However, the problem was that the opinions were not unified.
If any one of them immediately turns out to be a traitor, the front line will collapse.
It was an era when the position of high priest was given priority to political power rather than divine power.
As in the past, there was no longer a high priest with the gift of healing.
Those who were knowledgeable and risked their lives for the work of God were enough for the temple knights and the priests in charge of healing.
Even the gods preferred those who spoke well and had good political power.
The higher the number of followers, the higher the points returned to the gods.
Even the gods have to work hard for the priests to make holy water, so even that is possible.
It was all directly related to the point.
That is why the gods cherish and love priests with good political power who can increase their investment-to-margin ratio.
“first… … I will see you.”
The Temple of Ereka, the God of Mercy, is doing well these days.
During the war, especially, people craved the mercy of the gods.
“Are you sure?”
“Then I will accompany you… … .”
The reaction of the two ministers was slightly different.
believers and non-believers.
A fierce battle had already begun.
“We will negotiate quietly and secretly. Trust me.”
He is not another god, but a high priest who serves the God of Mercy.
His face was full of benevolent expressions.
“… … That’s right.”
The trembling high priest of the Temple of Duera reluctantly answered.
“Go!”
The decision was made.
A meeting of the high priests who owned the largest temple in the temporary dynasty.
No one could have guessed what kind of impact today’s decision would have.
He could not even figure out who the Duke of the Imperial Family was.
Even the gods of the continent did not know this.
***
– You dare to threaten the gods? Even if your brother gave you a new level, this problem is serious. Don’t you know how greedy the gods are? When they get angry… … .
Are you a drinker too?
– Of course, our merciful devil… … .
As soon as the modifier that the demon is merciful is attached, it can be confirmed that it is not the truth.
He is the god who rules over demons who fight and defeat.
The standard of the word mercy was different.
– So is the emperor. Is it okay to issue a decree on the words of a lover so easily? I could be stalking the temples, but being swayed… … .
Even Arin was wrapped around it and biting it.
Does not matter.
– Who are the temple priests? They’re all players. Priests as pure as in the past were rare. Everyone is desperate to get the pockets of helpless believers out of the way. How weak these guys are, can they have a decree? The empire ends the moment it is declared heresy on the continent.
Don’t you think the opposite?
– the opposite? what?
You just have to declare that I’m a heretic before they first say I’m a heretic.
– Crazy! Do you think the gods will stand still?
Of course the gods will rise.
But I know the habits of the gods better than anyone.
It has nothing to do with the human world.
The corruption between the gods is hard to even get out of your mouth.
Malone There is still a lot of purity in this neighborhood.
Still less polluted and less corrupted.
So the decree was issued.
– Listen to the drink. Our Goddess is a wealthy man. Sometimes the gods come and borrow money in a hurry. It would be enough to forgive my brother’s debt right away.
He is a demon that is second to the gangster boss.
Sales employee Alphadak still had no regrets about me.
Even if I live today, my goal is to live as a free person.
If I had tried to enjoy the new moon and live comfortably, I would rather have joined hands with an evil spirit on Earth.
– Sheesh! Stubborn idiot idiot brother! How many points have I invested? … .
Alphadak grumbles over and over again.
I’m waiting.
In order to catch Wolcheok, ground rice must be thoroughly sprinkled.
The gods of this town have been watching the ground rice I sprinkled enough.
Now all that’s left is timing!
You just have to wait patiently for the gods’ response.
That moment.
smart.
A knock was heard from outside.
“dismissal. The High Priest of the Temple of Ereka has arrived.”
The voice of the knight guarding the office was heard.
If you are a high priest, you can come without an appointment.
“Tell me to come in.”
– … … Ah-oh! stupid things!
Alphadak exclaimed in frustration.
shit.
The fish bit the bait.
profit.
The door opened.
And then, a chubby man with a chubby physique enters the room.
He was estimated to be in his mid-fifties.
The high priest can be said to be the ruler of this continent that no one can touch.
Oil runs down your face.
“I see you, Duke of the Imperial Family. My name is Joseph, the faithful servant who serves Ereka.”
When our eyes met, Priest Jusep put his hands together and bowed his head lightly.
Each temple had a different greeting method.
I bowed my head in the same position.
It was flexible for a high priest who is famous for having a stiff head.
It was possible because I am doing well these days.
“Welcome to. I was waiting.”
After saying goodbye, he shook his head and said.
“!!!”
To be frank and honest, the high priest is bewildered.
greeted with a smile
I was the first to say that I was waiting.
As it was a negotiating position, I had to get a player.
They must have come on behalf of other temple priests.
“Sit down.”
He pointed to the soft beast leather sofa.
“Yes… … .”
I’m already caught up in the poker face.
Other nobles would have been more formal.
But I am a modern man who has lived on Earth.
It also had exchanges with the leaders of great powers and important figures.
Psychological warfare and conversational skills are so unripe.
“The car was prepared in advance.”
Pre-set teacup set.
again.
A cup of tea was filled with a strong fragrance and clear tea.
It’s a top-notch car
There were quite a few good things about the items confiscated by the Allied Forces of the Kingdom.
“Congratulations.”
“Yeah???”
While pouring the car, he suddenly spoke to High Priest Joseph.
Joseph is confused.
“Did you not know?”
“What… … .”
Eyes flutter
A series of attacks that will overturn everything he has planned.
“I thought I had known you.”
The fishing rod line was pulled strongly.
“???”
“This donation… … It is first-come-first-served basis.”
“!!!”
