I’m Going to Destroy this Country

Chapter 119 - Ah, It's the Supreme! (3)



“This is absurd!”

Isaac chose the Supreme God.

At that fact, the priest society fell into chaos. No, it wasn’t just them. It even reached the ears of the dignitaries and caused a commotion.

-Have you heard? They say Isaac Eshua chose the Supreme God.

-The Supreme God…! Isn’t that something that has never happened before?

-History will be turned upside down. Is the next leader of the Holy Empire coming from the Blue!

-Then will he become the Pope?

People from other countries were stirring, saying they should establish connections with Isaac.

So the Red and Gold had no choice but to grab the backs of their necks.

‘What kind of event is god selection!’

It was a meaningful occasion where an apprentice contracts with a god and moves forward as a full-fledged priest. In other words, it means that depending on the god you choose, your future path and the state of affairs also change.

And while other faiths also seemed greatly surprised, the Red and Gold in particular were not just surprised but fell into a state of mental breakdown.

Especially the Gold.

“This crazy…”

“Why the Blue of all things…!”

Wasn’t it like suddenly getting hit on the back of the head while minding their own business?

Originally, they were going to publicly announce the god Kina chose and elevate the Gold’s honor. With the level of god Kina chose, they could proceed with matters favorably even with foreign dignitaries. Everyone would pay attention to the Gold.

But in front of the Supreme God, even that fades.

‘Well, there were originally cases where other priests sometimes chose the Gold God.’

Of course, in that case, they separately made a deal and received the god.

But the Supreme God?

‘Damn it, as if I’ll easily hand over something like that!’

Of all things, it had to go to the eyesore Blue!

“Didn’t His Excellency take any measures?!”

“That’s…”

Those reporting closed their eyes tightly.

Listening to them, it seemed the Gold Cardinal didn’t sit still until the end either.

“They say he tried to attach the God of Wealth to young master Isaac when it tried to go to him…”

“But the Supreme God still appeared…?”

“Yes. They say a stronger power pushed away the God of Wealth.”

The Gold priests couldn’t close their mouths.

‘Could it be that the Supreme God liked that bastard to that extent?’

They wondered just what kind of case this was, but what’s important now isn’t how it appeared.

“Anyway, we have to prevent him from making a contract.”

“That’s right. The Blue will try to rise to the top in an instant and sit on the Gold’s head.”

“But fortunately, there’s the stage of ‘god summoning’ after god selection.”

‘God summoning’ was the final stage of summoning the chosen god and making a contract. Summoning a god wasn’t such an easy task.

Physical strength and ability when summoning. Everything was important. It’s like when you say you’re applying to a school, being eligible to apply and actually being accepted are separate issues.

So apprentices carried items related to that god to increase the success rate of summoning.

What does that mean?

‘To choose the Supreme God, you need to hold items related to the Supreme God.’

That’s why they said:

“Cast the ‘Rest divine technique’ on items related to the Supreme God.”

“!”

Rest divine technique.

It says rest, but in reality, it means casting a curse to relax and collapse.

“To make him collapse when he tries to summon the Supreme God.”

The priests had no choice but to be startled.

“C-Can we really do such a thing?”

“The dirty Blue choosing the Supreme God is an even more dangerous thing. Understand? This is for the greater good.”

“Yes!”

“He’ll obviously make a fuss about choosing the Supreme God.”

“Yes, that’s right. No matter how much he likes the God of Wealth, it’s inferior to the Supreme God.”

“Why do you think the Supreme God is the Supreme God? Isn’t he an existence that encompasses all gods? With just the Supreme God, he could aim for the position of the next Pope.”

“And his greed to choose the Supreme God will bring the result of strangling his own neck.”

But around that time, the person in question was…

“I’m going to choose the God of Wealth!!”

Making a fuss about choosing the God of Wealth.

And seeing Isaac like that, Shuri had no choice but to click his tongue.

‘My goodness, the God of Wealth.’

“This is the first time I’ve seen someone who chooses the Supreme God and says he doesn’t like it…”

But regardless of that, Isaac eyed Shuri’s orb.

“Hey, Kim Shuri. The god you chose looks really nice? Give it to me.”

Moreover, he’s trying to steal someone else’s god, so it’s even more of a first!

“Why. Kim Shuri, you chose the main god of the Blue, right? The God of Light? It’s totally great. If it’s the God of Light, he’ll be good at finding shiny things too, right? Right? He’ll be good at finding gold too, right?”

“You crazy bastard! The God of Light isn’t that kind of being!”

“Heh, our Kim Shuri will make a fortune. If it’s the Blue God, it’s confirmed you’ll be the next head of the Blue. So let’s switch.”

Argh! This crazy bastard!

As Isaac tried to take away Shuri’s orb, Shuri desperately protected the orb and shouted.

“Why are you doing this to me when you chose the Supreme God! Don’t you see everyone is envious?!”

Is that all?

“The Supreme God already sent you a gift!”

Shuri pointed to the potion bottle in the trash and raised his voice.

It wasn’t common, but gods sometimes bestowed gifts to their beloved priests.

Of course, it wasn’t for free.

If a priest accumulated merits for the god, as a reward for that, a paper sent by the god would descend to the Papacy or the temple of each faith.

The administrator who received it would convert it into items for the priest in question.

But in Isaac’s case, it was completely different.

‘My god, the god sent down items without him even accumulating any merits! Does this even make sense!’

Moreover, it fell directly to Isaac! A potion engraved with the Supreme God’s crest! So everyone was startled.

But Isaac, who actually received the gift, had an indifferent air.

“I don’t need that measly stamina potion.”

What?! You don’t need it?

“It’s the Supreme God’s blessing, so why!”

“What’s a blessing? Will it feed me?”

“It will feed you! Don’t you know that with just that, you can summon the Supreme God without any problems? Usually, people cough up blood and collapse while trying to summon a high-ranking god! Aren’t you going to choose the Supreme God!”

“Hmph.”

Hmph. Well, okay. The Supreme God is good. If he had a grudge, he wouldn’t have even chosen me, so it’s not bad.

But I don’t know his intention or purpose. I don’t have a sense of what kind of god he is.

‘Does he think I’ll make a contract just because he gives me something like that? How cautious of a person do you think I am?’

[You’re just trying to steal the Supreme God’s treasure and run away.]

Shut up?

[The thief is just making excuses… Guh!]

As Isaac choked Whisper’s neck, Shuri sighed.

“Well, I respect your opinion. But even if you don’t like it, it’s better to choose a high-ranking god.”

“What?”

“The Red is aiming for you. They’re trying to summon the Red God and catch you.”

Shuri held his forehead, asking if he knew the current situation.

“Traditionally, only the Red heirs can choose the Red Gods, and they’re really crazy strong. Their combat power and attack power are top-notch.”

“Even more than the Blue or Gold Gods?”

“Their specialties are different, but anyway, since they’re gods that only the Red heirs can choose, they’re insanely strong. Only the same high-ranking gods can absolutely withstand them.”

In other words, the moment Naiser summons the Red God, Isaac could be attacked by the god and die.

‘No, he’ll almost 100% die.’

The majority of the Red Gods were high-ranking gods in charge of punishment. And while it may be fine normally, the story changes once a god is summoned.

‘Immediate punishment.’

The moment they see Isaac’s faith, they’ll fry him to death with lightning. If he doesn’t have high-ranking god-level defense, he’ll lose his life.

That’s the kind of gods the Red Gods were.

“In that sense, honestly, it’s a miracle that you were chosen by the Supreme God!”

“A miracle? What about me?”

“What about you? Hey! Should I take another look at your compatibility and say it?!”

Shuri slammed the papers spread on the floor.

There were plenty of scroll papers around Isaac and Shuri. And those papers were special test papers used to check compatibility with gods.

“You said you don’t like the Supreme God, so I even got precious test papers for you! But the results are all like this!”

The God of light, the God of Punishment, the God of Abundance, the God of Love, etc. They tested compatibility with all sorts of gods.

And the result?

What’s the point of saying it?

“This is the first time in my life I’ve seen compatibility all coming out as 0%! How can there be not a single one above 0% out of a thousand gods!”

“Ah, why! If we test more with other gods, it might come out!”

“Do you think it would make sense to test more with your level of faith!”

Of course, there was just one exception.

-[Supreme God]

-Compatibility: ∞ (Infinite)

So he had no choice but to go crazy.

‘This is really the first time I’ve seen someone so extreme!’

“Anyway, think of it as a miracle and summon the Supreme God! If it’s not a high-ranking god, you won’t be able to resist the god Naiser summons!”

“Kim Shuri, you also have a high-ranking god. Give me yours and it’ll be fine.”

“Aish! Eat a flea’s liver!”

Anyway, everyone expected Isaac to choose the Supreme God.

But Isaac picked his ear.

A contract with a god was essential as a priest. It would be great if he could only make a contract with a good god, but would there be a god with good compatibility with the Demon King?

For the future, it would be good to recruit at least one high-ranking god.

‘Ah. Is there any high-ranking god who will listen well to me?’

[If it were me, I would absolutely not choose Master.]

Whisper got hit once.

* * *

A week later.

The summoning ceremony was more lively than ever.

“The Supreme God? Are we really going to see the Supreme God?”

“Hey, are you kidding? Choosing and summoning are different. How can you summon something like that?”

“Indeed, even if you choose a high-ranking god, there were more cases where people couldn’t actually summon it and just made a contract with another god.”

“Hey, is that important right now? Haven’t you heard the rumors about Isaac Eshua’s faith?”

“They say they’ll summon the Red’s supreme god! I think they’re going to execute Isaac Eshua there.”

People were looking forward to various spectacles.

And the Red team preparing the summoning ceremony looked at Naiser as if asking if he was okay. But Naiser snorted.

“Whatever trick that bastard used, it won’t work now.”

“!”

Naiser had already requested judgment on Isaac from the Red Gods at the Red temple. The gods who heard about Isaac were enraged.

-Not only did he break the statue of the God of Criminal Justice, but he also drove the messenger of the gods into heresy.

-Summon us. We will directly examine that demonic child’s soul and deal with him through execution.

Seeing those words, Naiser had no choice but to smile in victory.

“He’ll be executed at the summoning ceremony.”

At that declaration of war, the Blue team and Shuri tried to say something, but-

“It’s not wrong.”

“!”

The Gold Cardinal appeared in front of Isaac.

“You’re too young to summon the Supreme God. You won’t be able to handle the Red God.”

At Cardinal Berit’s words, Isaac raised his eyebrows. Did this guy come to pick a fight?

But Cardinal Berit said something unexpected.

“I’ll help you summon the Supreme God.”

“…?!”

What? He’s going to cooperate in summoning the Supreme God?

Shuri and the Eshua family looked at him as if asking what he was thinking, but the Gold Cardinal’s eyes flashed.

“In return, after summoning, hand it over to the Gold. Then I’ll give you the God of Wealth.”

“!”

The head of the Blue House and Lilai, who noticed the Gold’s purpose, immediately frowned.

These guys are like that after all.

Soon, Lilai stepped forward.

“Even if you offer such conditions…”

“You wanted it, didn’t you? I’ll give you the best among the gods of wealth.”

At those words, the Eshua family and the Blue team laughed.

‘These bastards should do it moderately. Do you think it’s possible to exchange the Supreme God and the God of Wealth?’

As expected, Lilai smiled confidently at Cardinal Berit.

“Your Excellency doesn’t seem to know how well the Supreme God is treating Isaac right now. The transfer itself will be impossible.”

“Well, that depends on his own will.”

“For Isaac to hand it over…”

“I’ll give it to you.”

…What?

“I’ll transfer that measly thing. But you have to give me the God of Wealth.”

Hey, you bastard!!

Shuri looked at Isaac as if startled.

But Lilai and the head of the Blue House held their foreheads as if they had guessed it.

“Well, whatever.”

In fact, they didn’t care who Isaac made a contract with. Honestly, it was a miracle in itself that Isaac could make a contract with a god.

Where else would he not choose an evil god?

‘It’s more than enough if it’s just the form of a god.’

The important thing was summoning a god before Naiser. If he summoned a high-ranking god, he would be able to avoid the Red God’s attack.

And anyway, Naiser’s summoning order was after Isaac’s.

‘He can sufficiently defend…’

But then-

“Master! It’s a big deal. The order of the summoning ceremony has changed!”

Everyone was surprised by the report of the Blue knight.

“The order has changed!”

“Young master Naiser is before young master Isaac.”

Curses had no choice but to come out.

As expected, the rarely flustered Goel shouted.

“Who changed it!”

“The Black… Cardinal did. It seems the Red Cardinal bribed him.”

A curse flowed from the lips of the head of the Blue House.

“…That damn bird. A priest is taking bribes now?”

“He’s really acting like a beggar.”

“That’s right.”

When the sons cursed in unison, the head of the Blue House cracked his neck.

“Lilai.”

“Yes! I’ll go and protest…”

“Bribe them too.”

“…?!”

Father?

Is it okay for the Blue to do that?!
