Chapter 149: Guardian Deity (3)

Lee Ji-hye was puzzled .

"E-excuse me? Wait! Stop! Hey you, where did you get that? That mask is a symbol of our Devil Hunters’ raid group!”

She took out a similar mask from her chest and waved it . She tried to follow but Rose blocked the path .

"Don’t tail him!”

"Tail? No . . . rather, a dark elf . . . ?”

Lee Ji-hye’s eyes widened .

Dark elves!

She had traded with dwarves in the past, but the dark elves had always been aggressive . They were a creature to be cautious of inside the dungeon .

But now, dark elves were with a human . It was natural to be surprised .

Rose’s small tongue poked out a little bit as she spoke .

“Fairy-nim said that I should stop women from twisting around Master . Bah, I can clearly see that you are uglier than Queen-nim . ”

Yihi would occasionally meet with Rose and would give her some advice . Many of those words were related to women .

Lee Ji-hye was confused to have a young dark elf talking to her like this .

“ . . . What are you people doing here?”

"Humans call our Master a ‘saviour . ’ He does what no one else can do!”

"Saviour . . . ”

Lee Ji-hye turned around .

Almost all those here were following only one person .

They bowed down with their foreheads to the ground . The only word they shouted was ‘Saviour . ’

Rose flicked her head . She turned around .

"We are busy . If you want to follow then follow . Let’s go, Roy . ”

"Eung . ”

Rose took Roy’s hand and slowly walked away .

Yoo Eun-hye and Edward approached Lee Ji-hye with complicated expressions .

“Unni . What are we going to do?”

"I don't know . I guess the words heard on the radio were correct . . . ”

Not all communication was dead . There was periodic communication with those distributing supplies, the ones in charge of warehouses and the people kept separated .

She heard that the ‘Saviour’ had come . It was only after arriving here that the Devil Hunters confirmed his identity .

“That person . . . he is familiar for some reason . ”

The masked man . Yoo Eun-hye gazed at his back .

He was a blunt man . Lee Ji-hye also looked at him .

"Have you forgotten? He is already dead . Even if he is dead, we have still survived . ”

“Anyway . . . it is Unni’s decision . Devil Hunters’ leader is Unni . ”

Yoo Eun-hye sighed . There were shadows under her eyes .

Lee Ji-hye contemplated for a while before nodding .

“We will join . There seem to be many Awakened . Having a lot of people will be helpful . ”

The invasion had been abrupt and proceeded very quickly . Demons and creatures . They knew what the weaknesses of humans were and occupied Korea .

The capital city was smashed before it even reacted . They didn’t want to give time for the clever humans to unite together .

But . . . they still united . The humans gathered . If they could gather people then they didn’t need to be afraid of the creatures .

‘Who is he? Is he really a saviour?’

She didn’t know . One thing was for certain, his strength was far beyond her imagination . He shattered a huge orc lord and hundreds of orcs . Yoo Eun-hye who was the strongest wouldn’t be able to imitate his actions .

Although he felt familiar, it didn’t make sense that he would be called a ‘saviour . ’ Lee Ji-hye started to organize her thoughts .

Humans were scary .

Once they started believing in something, they wouldn’t be able to see the depths around it .

They believed in their faith and that it was the way to glory . Of course, that belief could be a driving force that made them crave ‘life . ’ However, it could also have the adverse effect of making fanatics .

Wuuuuuu .

Wooooo .

Small sounds filled the area . It wasn’t an orderly song . It was more like bizarre moaning .

"People are strange . "

Edward said while looking around .

"It isn’t strange . ”

Yoo Eun-hye denied his words .

At the moment, they were walking in the rear .

Only those with a strong belief in the saviour could stand near him .

"Noona, don’t you think it is strange? It looks so weird . . . ”

"Everything has fallen apart . It is gone . Just when they couldn’t see anything . . . someone offered their hands . He is a saviour to them . ”

It was the reason Yoo Eun-hye had followed that man two years ago . Despite being dangerous and often disappearing, he was someone who shone brightly to her .

However, now he was gone . The world was already on the brink of destruction and he didn’t show up when it was in danger .

Even when precious people died . . . or when his home was lost . . .

"Indeed, I would go crazy if Noona disappeared . ”

"Don’t say something so strange . You have the power to live alone . ”

"So what if I have power? I don’t want to . . . hehe . ”

Edward laughed with a playful expression . The atmosphere just then had seemed somewhat depressing .

Next to him, Lee Ji-hye gazed at the long procession and asked .

"Where are we going?”

The answer came from elsewhere .

"The land of heaven . Saviour-nim is leading us to a place with no worries . ”

A passerby said while shedding tears .

But Lee Ji-hye refuted these words .

"Don’t you see the angels? They believe that it is more important to destroy the demons . Humans aren’t a high priority . ”

"They are fake angels! Saviour-nim is the only one who knows the real road to heaven! According to Saviour-nim and his children, we can go to heaven . ”

"I am too young to go there already . ”

"You who lack faith! Do you still have doubts about Saviour-nim?”

Lee Ji-hye replied .

"I know that he is strong . He took care of the creatures that we couldn’t so I am thankful . But it is unlikely that he is leading us to heaven . ”

The passerby sighed like he was grieving . Then other people joined and surrounded Lee Ji-hye .

"You don’t deserve to be in this line!”

"Heretics!"

"Heretic!"

A fiery reaction . Lee Ji-hye was forced to panic at the sudden crisis .

"I am a heretic just because I don’t believe? Wait a minute, stop!”

Lee Ji-hye couldn’t stay still any longer because people started grabbing at her hair and clothes . The Devil Hunters raid team rescued Lee Ji-hye and confronted the group .

"Ugly woman!”

At that moment, a voice was heard .

“Ah?”

"Ohh, Saviour-nim’s child . . . ”

It was like looking at Moses’ miracle .

The people immediately gave way for the dark elf girl .

They stopped criticizing Lee Ji-hye .

The girl stood in front of Lee Ji-hye and the Devil Hunters .

"Master says we are moving . All the people around you as well! However, Rose won’t forgive you if you stab Master in the back . Only Queen-nim can stay beside Master . Do you understand?"

They didn’t know who Queen-nim was .

But the previous atmosphere had gone away .

Rose left after saying those words .

"Saviour!"

"Ohhhh . . . ”

"Ohhhhhh . . . ”

The people flattened their bodies like frogs and bowed .

“Unni . Let's go . "

Yoo Eun-hye’s voice broke through to Lee Ji-hye .

“Y-yes . Go . . . ”

Lee Ji-hye swallowed her saliva and walked away .

She felt like she was walking into a lion’s mouth .
