Chapter 342
〈 Pantheon (1) 〉
Saint Heinrich St. Landgard of the White Knight Outerica suddenly appeared on Earth and instantly became a celebrity by demonstrating tremendous divine power.
Even after the terrorist incident of Awakened, which was his debut stage, he continued to tour various hospitals and make his presence known to the public.
-Day 24 of Auterica conversion. Today again, I prayed while looking at the saint’s photo.
-Certification) I printed a large picture of the saint and put it up in my room, and my loss of appetite and insomnia were cured, my stress was reduced, and my life became happier! Let’s all try 1 Heinrich a day.
-I’m going to purify my eyes again today♡
Of course, Heinrich’s outstanding appearance was also one of the main factors that further increased his popularity.
Mysterious silver hair that seems to be flowing with light and gold eyes that sparkle brilliantly as if soaked in the sun.
His attractive appearance, as if he were a protagonist who had just come out of a cartoon rather than reality, combined with his abilities, personality, and various facts revealed about him, made him literally cult-like.
A warrior chosen to save the world and a faithful saint who carries out God’s will.
Since a character that seems like something out of a story has appeared in reality, isn’t it natural for people who learn about him to be enthusiastic?
Of course, his continued ‘volunteering’ in the process aroused the dissatisfaction of the entire medical community, including the hospital, but they did not dare to protest against it openly.
Not only did he mainly use that power to help those suffering from critically ill children or rare diseases, but he was also concerned that he would face a backlash if he recklessly interfered with the miracle of divine power, which is not easily accessible to the general public.
‘Well, these days, I tend to send avatars to the Kang Hwan world, so my visits to Earth have become a little less frequent.’
Since Outerica was the main base, Heinrich’s outing could only be done when he had time to “Summon the Otherworld Transfer Team,” so if he had already used the transfer team for other things, he had no choice but to give up that day.
Of course, since there is a time difference, it would only be a few days.
And now, Heinrich is visiting Earth for the first time in a while.
I was looking down at the city center below from the rooftop of a building when the street lights along the road were just starting to turn on.
“...things turned out better than I thought.”
He muttered softly as he thought of the people he had just met.
He had just come out from delivering a letter to Se-ah Lee’s family as he had been asked to do not long ago.
They couldn’t help but be taken aback by the surprise visit of a completely unexpected guest... a person famous enough to be on the news, but it was nothing compared to the topic he brought up right away.
“yes? “Is that really true?”
“oh my god...!”
They carefully accepted the letter with an incredible story.
It didn’t take long for her family to fully believe Heinrich’s words.
‘Well, I guess I can’t help but believe it when my daughter’s image pops out so vividly.’
The letter delivered to the family at Se-ah Lee’s request was not an ordinary item.
As an archmage, she put a lot of effort into creating it. It was a type of magic tool that was activated the moment her family, who were related to her by blood, opened the letter.
-“...So, I’m doing well. I think I’ll probably be able to go back soon... um, about two months Earth time? In fact, it might be shorter than that...”
It was no wonder that her family, who had been tense the whole time, reacted violently the moment a three-dimensional hologram, like something out of a movie, was projected onto the letter.
“...You’re safe. Okay, that’s enough.”
“Oh, saint! thank you! And... please take good care of my daughter in the future as well.”
“Wow, my sister is a wizard!”
The father, who pretends to be calm and has tears in his eyes, the mother who makes a fuss and bows repeatedly, and the younger brother who is immaturely happy.
Heinrich was able to leave Isea’s house only after receiving their warm thanks.
‘Anyway, I’ve definitely completed what I was asked to do. Since I received a proper reply, I can go back and deliver it to Isea.’
He quietly looked at the night view and slowly nodded.
In some ways, it could be said that it was a favor that was no different from an errand, but he didn’t care about such trivial things.
Anyway, such a small task wasn’t that difficult for me.
And above all.
‘...Now then, shall we start moving in earnest?’
Compared to what he would do in the future, this was just light entertainment.
“Then you can go in here.”
With a bit of anxiety, the place was becoming a bit chaotic, when the door finally opened and a man entered, guided by an agent.
Clunk clank—
the sound of heavy metal rubbing periodically.
The people who were talking to each other all turned their eyes in that direction and then—.
“Ah...”
“Hmm.”
I faced the other person head-on and silently let out a small sigh and closed my mouth.
It was just an instinctive, natural reaction without any meaning attached to it.
‘That man is...!’
With such a heavy atmosphere flowing in the audience, Kang Taesan, who was standing quietly in the corner, quietly swallowed his saliva.
Beautiful features that match the gorgeous features of silver hair and golden eyes.
Contrary to the soft and benevolent smile on his face and the godly atmosphere surrounding him, this man naturally exudes hot and powerful energy like a burning flame.
He was Heinrich Saint Landgard, a saint from another world who did not feel the slightest sense of incongruity even though he was wearing pure white armor that did not suit modern times.
‘Huh?’
Kang Tae-san’s eyes, who had been looking at him blankly, momentarily met his.
Golden eyes slightly widened as if something was unexpected.
However, it disappeared in an instant before anyone noticed, and soon it was covered again with a soft smile as if nothing had happened.
‘Wow, you’re really handsome.’
Kang Tae-san, who suddenly made eye contact and was even attacked with a smile, grumbled quietly to himself.
He knew very well that the other person was a benefactor who saved his life, his grandmother, and even his friend, and he was grateful for that, but that was a separate issue.
But even in the midst of that, there was a feeling that was creeping up deep in my heart without me knowing.
Awe.
That wasn’t just him, it was the common sentiment of everyone present.
I already knew more than enough about the other person.
In the first place, what they had been focusing on was investigating that white knight.
It was no exaggeration to say that all available information was obtained, from video data, eyewitness statements to analysis reports.
The impression I felt after meeting him in person was on a different level from what I had simply received through information.
‘...How can you do that? The space around that man seems to be a completely different world.’
‘Somehow he doesn’t seem like the same person. A person from another world who crossed over from another dimension... Was that really true?’
‘This presence. It’s more than I expected. Could it be that he has grown more during this time?’
The pressure of feeling like I was facing an unknown being of a higher level rather than an equal human being.
The minds of those present here began to spin busily.
As they also have their own social status, I have met quite a few powerful people, so-called transcendents, but the presence I feel from the white knight now is quite different from them.
“hello? My name is Heinrich St. Landgard, the first sword that serves Lady Outerica. Nice to meet you all.”
A voice that made even a simple greeting sound reverent rang out, and Heinrich, who had been looking around the audience with a gentle smile, turned to a foreign man.
A priest in his early 40s with brown hair and a sturdy build.
He was the representative of the investigation team dispatched from the Pantheon headquarters in the United States.
‘He is from a Holy Knight. I’m not sure about the denomination I belong to, but it certainly doesn’t seem like an evil spirit.’
However, since he already knew that the person behind the investigation team was the secretary of the Beoncheonhoe, he was someone who could never let down his guard.
I don’t know if he is directly related to the Buncheonhoe or if he is just being used, but...
‘I guess we can slowly find out about that from now on.’
Heinrich’s eyes, hidden behind a smile, shone sharply.
