Chapter 415: I’m Glad. Light Kiyoung Has Descended (6)

The Dragon Breath potion was a potion that one could not drink.

It had been concocted in a glass bottle, similar to the organ that conjured the Breath, which used Dialugia’s magic power and blood as its catalyst.

Rather than considering it as alchemy’s essence, it was more appropriate to think of it as a bomb that used several complex techniques.

It was made to burst, so, naturally, one shouldn’t drink it. In the first place, nobody should drink blood. Even as an enhancement serum, drinking blood itself carried a multitude of risks.

However, the new potion didn’t have such risks.

That potion, which had been handed down as a gift from the respectable Goddess Benignore and trashy Elune, could clearly distinguish between enemies and allies.

[Bomb of Light Potion (Semi-mythic)]

[Alchemist-of-Light-exclusive consumption item: Daily usage limit (3/3)]

[This is a unique potion created by Goddess Benignore’s consideration and Elena’s sacrifice. It could only be activated by the semi-mythic class, Alchemist of Light. It triggers a massive explosion of light that reacts to the user’s enemies and allies immediately after instilling the user’s divine power. Allies are immediately healed of serious injuries, while enemies remain exposed to the effects of the explosion. It can be used three times a day. P.S. Trash bastard. This is really the last time. This is my limit.]

It could cause a huge and brilliant explosion.

What if I drank it?

There was no way I wouldn’t be curious about the possibilities.

Of course, I came up with an answer immediately. I didn’t even have to make various assumptions. There was a guy who had taken it before me.

‘Salat did.’

To be precise, he didn’t drink it, but he took it into his body.

He struggled in pain, but the light that burst out of his body at that time reached even the ally expedition, proving its effectiveness.

Even if I drank it, the effect wouldn’t change. It would cause damage to enemies and recovery to allies.

It had limited range, simple ability, simple functionality.

There was no need to complicate it. Taking it didn’t give one transcendental power, nor did it cause any dramatic changes.

Of course, it didn’t cause God to descend, or greatly increase the user’s divine power, either.

The function remained the same.

Yes, it was the same, but the appearance of the user changed a little.

As my eyes followed the voices coming from all directions, the light spreading out from me instantly filled my view. I felt like I could hear a whooshing sound resonating from inside my body.

There was a feeling that my stomach was bubbling up, but nothing was wrong. Rather, I felt a little better.

Not only did it heal all the wounds, but even the fatigue had also been blown away.

It was truly spectacular to watch the light that illuminated me continue to wrap around the troops.

Those who had fallen stood up, and those who had been hit by arrows or magic also got healed in the end.

All of them had their mouths wide open, both the Republic and the State, as they witnessed the great miracle created by both Elune and Benignore.

‘I can barely see… Fuck.’

I couldn’t help but feel proud as I watched the light slowly blanket our troops.

Perhaps it was also due to the brilliance of the light that had evoked a sense of paralysis within the battlefield.

This marked the third time that I had used it.

For an instant, silence dominated the battlefield because even the undead were under the influence of the light.

“She has descended. Goddess Benignore has descended.”

My ass.

She didn’t descend, but, naturally, I was glad they thought of it that way.

As I turned my head and looked into the Goddess’s Mirror, I could see Light Kiyoung, who had become the light itself.

Not only was the bright light shining throughout my body, but it also continued to revolve around me. Even the rays of light pouring out of my eyes looked divine.

My body slowly began to rise into the air as I muttered the floating magic with my remaining divine power.

The way they looked at me with their mouths open proved to be very much amusing.

“Goddess Benignore… Goddess Benignore!”

-I…

“Sniff.”

‘Stop crying. Bastards. Let me talk. Stop crying.’

-I heard your voices.

The place became quiet as soon as I started to speak.

Jin Qing’s voice, which had never stopped talking in the first place, could no longer be heard.

The undead stopped moving as well, and it was not because they were being disturbed by some transcendental power.

It was simply Jung Hayan controlling their creations, but the undead legion was doing their best to show off their acting skills. They began to mime, as if there was a wall in front of them.

I couldn’t understand what they were doing, even when I saw it with my own eyes.

Thousands of people bore witness to the scene, with shock enveloping their faces.

When I opened my mouth satisfactorily, I stared right into the eyes of those looking at me.

-There will be a lot you want to know. Why am I, Benignore, here? Why did I come out like this, when I had never been here for thousands of years? But… All will be revealed in due time. I cannot explain my motives right now. All I can tell you is that the current continent is in danger.

“…”

“…”

-What you are looking at is just the beginning. The forces that threaten this world are yet to show themselves. The countless cursed beings you see now, and the demon’s servant hiding… This threat is just the beginning. All the hardships you are going through now will feel like tiny things compared to the adversities that will soon come.

‘Good.’

No matter how much of a scammer I was, this level of trickery made even me tremble.

I felt anxious about saying something wrong, but I continued speaking smoothly and with a holy air, contrary to my worries.

-Sons and Daughters of Elune and Varian, and everyone that lives on this continent. The reason I borrowed this divine, pure, and clean human body today is to deliver this message to you again.

I looked around slowly.

-Those who threaten the safety of the continent exist.

I held my breath for a second.

-Even at this moment, they are constantly trying to taint the continents with their colors. It may be difficult for the human body to handle. However, you can overcome it. Please, unite under one banner. If everyone in this world comes together, we can survive this threat. You will surely be able to overcome it. You will be able to overcome all hardships and adversities by becoming one in front of the name of the light.

Once again, I finished my speech with a strong tone.

-Please decide firmly.

I could have made a direct comment on Demon Summoner Jin Qing, but I didn’t need to keep referring to him. Saying ‘demon’s servant’ was enough. I knew our priests would be able to notice how things had worked out.

“Ohh. Goddess Benignore…”

“Goddess Benignore. Goddess Benignore!”

I responded with a calm and serene smile to those who eagerly called out the name of the Goddess Benignore.

My role was now over.

As I slowly raised my hand and reached out to the cursed undead, I could see the reanimated bodies already suffering.

“Grooowwllll!

“Gruuunnttt. Gruuunntt.”

-You will be saved.

As I slowly shook my hand, the undead around me began to fall apart.

“A miracle…”

𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

“Goddess…”

“Grooooowwlll!”

-…

“Grruunnt.”

Whooooooosshhh!!

As I drew a circle with the other hand, more of the undead returned to the afterlife.

Of course, they were not influenced by even a drop of divine power. The light was advancing as a trick, but in truth, it wasn’t great enough to kill the higher undead.

It could probably only tickle them.

The reason why the undead was falling like dominoes was naturally due to Jung Hayan. It ended when she reached out her hand, terminating her technique.

This was indeed a well-designed grand scam, but since we managed to reach that point, the result didn’t look so bad.

Of course, even my teardrops shone brightly after drinking the Bomb of Light potion.

It seemed sacred even to me to see the undead, who had once filled the battlefield, returning to nothing en masse.

It looked to be a little exaggerated, but it had to be at least at that level to be worth calling it a miracle. Watching all the priests praying, I could roughly predict how the atmosphere would change.

-All who have suffered will be blessed.

At that point, it was a little hard even to move my hand. However, I kept smirking.

‘It’s over.’

This was as good as done. No, it was definitely over.

There could be no excuses or words for what I was witnessing.

I could only be proven to be fake if the real Benignore actually came down and told them otherwise. Those who now looked at me had reverence in their expressions, both the State and the me as if waiting for me again, and the elves who worshiped Elune also showed their respects.

-I will entrust the future work to you, the owners of this land. There is not much time left… I borrowed this body without even permission. Please, take care of this divine-human. I won’t be able to come down for a while after this, but always remember.

“Goddess Benignore…”

-We are always listening to your prayers and watching your actions. Please keep that in your hearts.

“…”

-You are not alone.

After saying those last words, the light that had been well-timed began to disappear. Of course, my body floating in the sky plunged to the ground.

However, I did not feel flustered or scared.

I knew someone would catch me anyway.

It was not Kim Hyunsung or Park Deokgu who made sure my body was safe. It turned out to be the ordinary soldiers.

As if catching a singer who jumped to the audience, they stretched out their hand.

The only difference was that I felt they were quite reverent.

I simply closed my eyes as I listened to their cries and the sounds of weapons being dropped to the ground.

“Sniff…”

“Mother…”

The war was over.

Nobody said it first, but I knew everyone was feeling it.

When I slowly opened my eyes, I could see the clouds that covered the sky passing by and the light pouring out.

The war was over.

“It’s over.”

“Yes, Honorary Cardinal… it’s over.”

I laughed cheerfully, then continued to ask the warrior a couple of questions.

“What happened… here?”

“Don’t you remember?”

“No. I remember being surrounded by light, but no, even after that… I remember, but… Did it really happen? My mind is hazy.”

“Perhaps you will understand soon.”

The moment I raised my head after coming down to the floor, the soldiers of both the State and the Republic greeted me.

They looked at me with a blank expression. I felt like they couldn’t figure out what to do.

Perhaps everyone was waiting for me to tell them.

Eventually, I had to speak with the most soothing voice I could muster.

“The war… The war is over.”

At my words, powerful cheers soon reverberated across the lands.
