Minhyuk looked like an archangel after moving past Obren, who was being devoured by the continuous lightning strikes.
No matter how high Minhyuk was on the players’ rankings, there was no way that he would have been able to deal with the Berserk Obren of the Past, whose level was over Level 800. However, he was able to cut the god down because of one thing.

Description: The Sacred Papal Sword is a sword that even the gods would not dare to hold recklessly. This sword was made to slay those that are ‘evil’. It will cut down any evil being. In case the Sacred Papal Sword’s power has been sealed, the seal will be lifted if the sword was used to cut down a being that it has acknowledged as ‘evil’.
The Papal Sword had clear advantages and disadvantages. What if this sword was used on an ordinary monster and not an evil being? It would not have much effect.
Its powers were somewhat lacking for a god-rank artifact. Of course, its attack power was very high. However, most of the skills attached to it were mainly focused on evil beings like the undead, or demonic beasts, or beings from hell. It was also an effective weapon against players with very high chaotic levels.
Although it was called a god-rank weapon, it did not have a single lethal, one-shot kill skill attached to it. It was completely different from the Continent Destroyer’s Sword which had the ‘Continent Destroyer’ skill attached. However, the Sacred Papal Sword was, without a doubt, a sword that could exert tremendous power against evil.
The sword only had one active skill, the skill was none other than the Pope’s March.
‘All of the popes, priests, and paladins that have approved of the Pope’s March will join the journey.’
It was a skill that could only be used once every year. However, the most interesting part of the skill was in its effect.
‘I think it’s a skill that makes one look cool, no?’
They would follow the one with the Papal Sword and join him in his journey. After the march, they must absolutely obey the orders of the pope for three straight minutes.
Next was the second skill, The One that Wields the Papal Sword.
‘This one is truly a cheat.’
Why did Minhyuk consider the skill to be a cheat?
‘All attack will increase by 75% while all defense will increase by 50% when facing evil beings? And it even ignores all of the enemy’s defenses and debuffs!’
Simply put, it was a crazy skill. Any undead, demonic beast, or demons will practically melt away in front of this Sacred Papal Sword.
There was also the Pope’s Dignity. It was a majestic skill to the point that Minhyuk found himself thinking, ‘Was the person that made this sword drunk on trying to make himself look cool?’
This was the explanation regarding the bright and white light that was emitting from Minhyuk’s body: ‘An effect that would fit the situation would appear. This effect will make the pope shine even more.’
There was also the fact that the one wielding the sword would be able to change the length of their hair, change the color of their eyes, and even slightly change the appearance of the artifact to whatever they wanted.
Finally, the description of the key and most important skill attached to the sword came into view.
‘The Sword that Slays Evil. This is really…’
Seeing the skill made Minhyuk wonder if those on the evil side also had a skill that could cause a collapse in balance like this.
‘This one has an effect too.’
Upon activation of the skill, it would make the skill user look like an ‘archangel’. In other words, Minhyuk’s appearance would change bit by bit once he used all of the skills in the Sacred Papal Sword. There was an even more terrifying effect.
‘The Sacred Papal Sword will increase all of my skills’ skill level by +4 when it recognizes evil…?’
It was another overpowered skill. An increase in skill level meant that the attack would increase, which would increase the basic attack’s damage.
With the Sacred Papal Sword in Minhyuk’s hands, his attack power will increase by 75% when facing evil beings. With this skill, his skills would increase in strength and additional damage. There was also a special privilege when wearing the Pope’s Faded Set, where he would be completely protected from all evil beings’ attacks for thirty seconds.
These were the reasons why Minhyuk was able to cut down Berserk Obren of the Past.
“Keuaaaaaaaaack!”
As for the lightning that fell from the sky? It was Minhyuk’s own skill ‘Sword of Absolute Death’. However, thanks to the effect of the Sword that Slays Evil, it made the attack look as if pillars of light had shot down from the sky.
Pope Kronad, the Strongest Paladins and the popes were all shocked.
‘Obren had received a fatal injury…?!’
That was right. The Berserk Obren was fatally injured by Minhyuk’s attack.
Meanwhile, the only thought in Obren’s mind was, ‘I have to kill Kronad and those damn bastards!’
However, a man suddenly appeared and blocked his path. That was what he could not understand. Kronad, the popes, the paladins, and all of the people that used him were already right in front of his eyes. He had to kill them.
“Keuaaaaaaaack! I’ll kill all of you!”
The Evil God’s Book that summoned lightning soared to the sky.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Light flashed from the Evil God’s Book as black bolts of lightning rained down upon the ground below.
Flash—
Minhyuk disappeared in a flash of light. From the left, the right, the back and the front, he would disappear and appear in flash. This was Minhyuk’s Like the Wind, completely changed by the skill: Pope’s Dignity.
At that moment, the Berserk Obren of the Past judged that it was necessary to weaken the powerful human in front of him before he could take care of those bastards. An Evil God’s Books appeared and floated in the sky before turning into a black energy that shot towards Minhyuk’s body.
Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—
However, one swing of the sword in Minhyuk’s hand and the black energy dissipated into nothingness.
A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.
[You cannot suppress the one that wields the Sacred Papal Sword!]
“…!”
Obren was in disbelief. How could a mere human be so powerful? Unfortunately, he was consumed entirely by vengeance.
‘I must kill everyone here!’
So, Obren activated a skill that only he could use. He opened one of the Eight Evil God’s Books, the ‘Book of Extinction’. Minhyuk looked up, as tens of millions of books appeared in the air above them, completely covering the blue sky.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaang!
The Book of Extinction could lay anything to waste in an area with a radius of 50 kilometers. At that moment, a black bolt of lightning fell down and wiped out dozens of paladins in an instant.
Baaaaang—
Baaaaaaaang—
Baaaaaaang—
A disaster unfolded in front of everyone as the attack from the Book of Extinction fell down all over the place.
The unknown man standing in front of him smiled bitterly and called out to him, “Obren.”
“…”
“Let’s go.”
“…”
Obren could not understand what the man meant. He recalled how the man looked at him and told him, ‘Let’s go home.’
Do you know me?
Baaaaaaaaaaaang—
A bolt of black lightning fell down on the ground just right behind Minhyuk, overturning the ground and creating even more chaos. However, amidst the place filled with despair, Minhyuk stood there, shining brightly like the only lamp in a dark night.
“I miss your nagging and nitpicking.”
“…”
The man took a step forward and continued, “I miss all the times that we laughed together.”
“…”
Obren took a step back as the man took another step closer to him. There was no way that he would have laughed with the man in front of him. After all, he was a human, a human like Kronad that betrayed him.
“I miss all the times that we overcame hardships and trials together.”
“…”
The man’s expression was sincere.
“I promise you, I will let you nag at me and we will laugh and cry together. So, come back with me.”
Obren’s pupils shook.
“Come back with me to our home.”
Obren felt the loud thumps of his heart. It was incomprehensible to him. Why was his heart thumping like crazy? Why? He obviously did not know who the man was, so why? Why was he reacting like this?
However, the feelings that were overwhelming him were not exactly a mistake. The Berserk Obren of the Past had absorbed a part of the power of the Obren that was sealed and slumbering inside the Puzzling Seasoning Jar. During the process, some of the consciousness and ego of the slumbering Obren flowed into him.
‘Home, together with you…’ The Berserk Obren of the Past pondered over the words despite his doubts. However, he caught sight of Kronad’s face from behind Minhyuk’s shoulder.
Grit, grit, grit—
The Berserk Obren ground his teeth in anger.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Rummmmmmble—!
“No. I’m not going back!!!”
Dark clouds loomed above them and strong winds blew fiercely as the rain of black lightning intensified. Then, Obren gathered hundreds of black lightning above Minhyuk’s head.
“…”
Unfortunately, he could not follow through. It was because his hand was stopped. And the one that held his hand was none other than his own self, Obren.
“Why?” The Berserk Obren asked.
Why are you stopping us? Didn’t you know it too? Those humans are dirty and ugly and are just trying to use us.
“Hiiiiiiiiik…!”
But just when he tried to release the bolts of lightning again, he heard a voice in his heart.
‘Stop.’
Obren felt frustrated.
‘Why are you telling me to stop?’
Then, his own voice sounded, ‘He…’
Obren listened intently to the voice in his heart.
‘He’s my true friend.’
‘He…’
‘He’s the one that cherished and loved me.’
‘He…’
‘He’s the person that made me laugh.’
‘And he…’
Obren paused when he heard the words that his own self told him.
‘He’s the only human that I trust and believe in.’
“…!”
Obren turned to look at Minhyuk, a single drop of tear dripping down his cheek.
‘I have sworn to myself that I will never, ever trust another human again.’
However, his own self from the future, the one trapped in the Puzzling Seasoning Jar, came to trust and believe in someone.
“Thank you…”
Swooooosh—
The power of the Evil God’s Book slowly started to disappear. However, darkness started to encroach upon Obren’s eyes, staining the whites into black. He was once again about to be devoured by madness and go ‘berserk’.
Obren clasped the hands of the man in front of him and said, “Minhyuk. Even if I die, I will make sure to remember your name. Please take good care of this guy from now on.”
Obren smiled softly, the grip on Minhyuk’s hands tightening as he shouted, “Kill me!!! Quick!!!”
Minhyuk nodded. He and Obren were both thankful to this Obren of the Past. Then, he triggered God’s Voice. He hoped that his voice would reach the Berserk Obren of the Past, who was slowly turning berserk once again.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaang—
A powerful force erupted from Minhyuk’s body as a white flame erupted from the blade of the sword in his hands.
[The one that wields the Sacred Papal Sword.]
[The one named Food God.]
[A king that led his own nation.]
[He looks at the Berserk Obren, the Obren that was once betrayed, with a soft smile on his face.]
[He promises that he will laugh with you.]
[He promises that he will cry with you.]
[He promises that he will protect you for all eternity.]
[He promises that he will always trust and believe in you for all eternity.]
Minhyuk let loose the blazing white flames that covered his sword as hard as he could.
Shwaaaaaaaaaaa—
However, God’s Voice continued to ring in Obren’s ears despite the blazing white flames that were devouring and burning him.
[The one that wields the Sacred Papal Sword chose to stay by the side of the most vicious Evil God.]
[He vows to create a new story with you.]
As the Berserk Obren of the Past slowly disintegrated, he heard the voice of Minhyuk, not the God’s Voice but his real voice, call out to him, “Obren.”
Minhyuk showed a bright smile to him and continued, “Thank you.”
The Berserk Obren of the Past gave a bright and wide smile to Minhyuk, his body turning into ashes as he brooded over the words that Minhyuk told him.
‘Thank you. I am very grateful to you. Thank you…’
