I’m Going to Destroy this Country

A storm raged in the summoning room.

“Aaaah! We can’t stand!”

“Grab onto something!”

A fierce wind and rain reminiscent of a hurricane struck the summoning room. The priests were about to be swept away by the violent waves and wind that obscured their vision.

Rumble!

“Ugh!”

This is the only place where the Gold, representing the Five Great Faiths, can summon a god. Although it’s a space managed by the Gold faith, even they were struggling to withstand it.

Even those in the temple far from the lake couldn’t easily stand up.

In this situation that looked like a disaster, it was unthinkable to head towards the center where the living sacrifice was. The same was true for Elai.

‘Damn it, the Saintess’s awakening has already begun.’

It can’t be reversed now. He had no choice but to give up on Benjamin.

In Isaac’s case, he would probably be fine. His grandson wasn’t the target for sacrifice.

‘Even so, someone unrelated to the Saintess’s awakening won’t be swallowed.’

So the chance of being purely eaten was low, but the problem was that it was Isaac who went in there.

‘There’s no way that guy will stay still.’

He’d be lucky if he just didn’t cause trouble while quietly hiding, when he could die from being crushed by the god’s energy. But that guy was someone who would even shove laxatives into the god’s body to make it spit out Benjamin.

And sure enough, Isaac’s eyes were gleaming upon encountering the god. Of course, clenching his fist was a bonus.

‘Damn. How dare a mere god try to eat someone?’

Whisper was also making a fuss, pissed off.

[Let’s crush it! Turn it into grilled eel right now! How dare the one in charge of awakening…!]

That dragon-like god was the . It was a being that ate wishes and desires, and upgraded the power of its target.

And Isaac, looking at it, couldn’t help but pop a vein.

Well, he was pissed off just by seeing a god from the Gold side, but it was because of what that bastard was saying.

‘What? It’s going to eat me too? I thought only the Saintess’s direct family could be living sacrifices?’

Isaac also knew about the God of Awakening. It was a god that the Pope had used when fighting the Skeleton King hundreds of years ago. Thanks to that, the paladins’ power suddenly increased, which had surprised him.

‘Well, even so, I crushed them all because it was me.’

[But wasn’t the offering back then not a living sacrifice, but 10 years’ worth of food from the human side?]

‘Well, that offering must have been transformed into a living sacrifice.’

The power would have increased more while using living sacrifices.

‘After all, a wish is a matter of how desperate it is.’

Moreover, if it’s direct family, the effect would be even greater. That’s why Isaac was somewhat convinced about the living sacrifice system.

It’s not that he was defending living sacrifices, but he thought that for humans to reach 10th rank, they would have to offer about that much to gain such power at once.

But what?

It’s going to eat me too, who’s not even Leia’s direct family?

Sparks flew from Isaac’s eyes, who was quick to notice.

‘Now that I look at it, it was all a show.’

[What?]

‘Actually, it didn’t matter who became the sacrifice.’

[Really?]

‘Yes. They deliberately chose direct family to instill a sense of debt in the Saintesses.’

Sure enough, the approaching dragon licked its lips.

[Well, eating one would be enough, but the more the better to fill my stomach.]

This god bastard even developed gluttony?? He was pissed off at being treated as food by the enemy, but he soon snorted.

‘Huh, well okay. I understand. It’s normal to drool at the sight of such an excellent high-grade item like me…’

[Low-grade. I’ll eat you deliciously too.]

…Damn it. The low-grade one was me?!!

The god sneered slowly as if it didn’t know.

[Looking at faith alone, you’re the lowest quality. How did you even become a priest?]

“Then don’t eat me!”

[I can’t do that. Though there are flaws, looking at ability alone, you’re top grade. What on earth are you doing to smell so delicious?]

Soon the god, interested in Isaac, drew closer. Honestly, though it said there were flaws, Isaac was top-grade to the extent those flaws were meaningless.

‘What’s this? With this level of power, it’s beyond the human category?’

Pope? No, looking at the vessel alone it’s already on par with the Pope, but that’s not the Pope.

Then what is it? There shouldn’t be anyone in the human realm with such power except the Pope?

Well, does it matter?

If it eats that, it will gain great power too. Rather, it’s more than enough as compensation for awakening the Saint.

[This generation’s Eshua is very praiseworthy. Where did you find something like that? I’ll pay special attention to the awakening this time.]

At those words, Benjamin couldn’t help but be shocked.

‘Damn it, I thought Isaac at least would be unaffected…’

To awaken Leia, it’s going to eat Isaac too, who’s not even direct family? That alone was already an impossible situation, but at this rate, Isaac might really be eaten too.

Benjamin urgently cried out.

“Isaac, I’ll buy time so escape somehow! You should be able to escape!”

“What, man? Telling me to run away in front of a damn god? How can you insult me like that! Even if you’re my beloved mon… uncle! Do you want to die?!”

“…”

At Isaac’s words, Benjamin didn’t know where to start pointing out, but that wasn’t what was important.

“If you die now, what will happen to Eshua!”

“!”

Benjamin shouted as if exhaling.

“I chose the path of sacrifice with a proud heart because you’re in the family. Because I know you’ll lead Eshua!”

“…!”

Eshua was on the path of decline. They were mocked, bearing the karmic debt of not killing the Skeleton King, but nonetheless they didn’t give up and encouraged the knights to protect Eshua.

Because they loved the Blue and the people in it so much. They thought they would regain their past glory someday.

And Isaac was the only one who showed hope in the midst of despair.

They can’t let such a guy die…

“No, honestly, I don’t want my precious nephew to die.”

“!”

To Benjamin, Isaac was his brother’s child whom he cherished dearly. How could he not protect even one nephew no matter how incapable he was?

But at that sight, the approaching god sneered.

[You don’t need to fight so much. I’ll swallow you both at once anyway. There won’t be any pain or anything…]

It was then, as the god was about to approach.

Flinch.

The god approaching Isaac stopped for some reason.

What’s this?

The closer it got to Isaac, the more ominous energy it felt. This cynical and overbearing feeling that would freeze even a high-ranking god.

‘Wait. This feeling?’

The god froze for a moment.

There was no mistake.

‘The Supreme God?!’

Wait, why is the Supreme God’s energy in a place like this?

And as if noticing that hesitant situation, Isaac grinned.

“What’s wrong? Weren’t you going to eat us?”

[What are you hiding in your arms?]

“Hiding? What am I hiding? Ah, were you surprised by this?”

Isaac nonchalantly undid the cuff on his hand. Then he held it up high so the back of his hand was visible.

“I’m so sorry, what should I do? I became a servant of a god but haven’t introduced myself yet.”

Usually, people try to subtly reveal the mark that symbolizes a contract with a god. It’s their ID for priests. Moreover, if it’s a high-ranking god, there’s even less reason to hide it.

But Isaac deliberately wore cuffs with seals to hide it. This was for moments like this.

Sure enough, Isaac smiled as he waved his hand to show the mark clearly.

“Hey, can you mess with me in front of this?”

[?!]

The god couldn’t hide its bewilderment.

No, rather it started trembling. For good reason, the mark Isaac was showing was undoubtedly the Supreme God’s pattern.

Moreover, it wasn’t just any pattern.

‘A preemption mark?’

Simply put, it means the god has claimed him.

And it’s on the most visible part…!

The more visible the location of the mark, the higher the god’s interest. In other words, the level of exposure is proportional to the god’s interest.

As proof, even now, a chilling cold whirled around Isaac.

The god asked back, hiding its bewilderment.

[What’s this? Who are you to receive that one’s love?]

At those words, Isaac grinned.

Yes, this bastard.

I was waiting for you to be flustered!

The moment it was distracted by the mark, Isaac immediately took something out. It was none other than a rattle… no, a gold rod.

.

It’s a technique mainly used by Saints, which throws objects like projectiles in a brutish way. It’s a projectile that flies at almost light speed, so you die if hit.

Even during the Skeleton King era, he often got hit by Melissa with this technique and got fractures… no, that’s not what’s important!

Isaac, who put divine technique on the rattle, threw it straight at the god’s mouth.

Bang!

Of course, divine technique is meaningless before a god, but getting it into the mouth is enough! As soon as the rattle entered its mouth, Isaac shouted.

“Benjamin! Close your eyes!”

“!”

Isaac covered his uncle’s eyes and immediately mouthed.

.

At that moment, the magic power condensed in the rattle exploded. At the same time, powerful flames burst out centered on the rattle.

Bang!!!

As if an explosion occurred inside the body, tremendous flames scorched the inside of the god’s body.

[Gaaah!!]

The god writhed as if in pain.

Isaac laughed, watching that sight.

Well, he used an ordinary magic thinking there was no need to use the Skeleton King’s unique magic.

‘Still, it should hurt like hell!’

At that sight, Whisper said something.

[It’s going to die at this rate, can you really kill it? What about the awakening?]

‘Kuhehe. It doesn’t matter. There’s a reason I came to face the god directly.’

He was uncertain, but seeing it with his own eyes, he seemed to know for sure.

‘The core of the awakening is that bastard’s internal organs.’

[What? Then?]

‘If we just rip that out, we can awaken without the god.’

[Ohh, then!]

But it wasn’t a god for nothing, it got up with its eyes wide open.

[How dare a servant aim at a god!]

…Ah, was it still not enough?

[You insolent bastard!]

In the end, as the god rushed at Isaac savagely as if to swallow him, Isaac quickly held up the back of his hand.

“Are you really going to eat me? Huh? You dare, in front of this?”

[Ugh…!]

The god hesitated again in front of the Supreme God’s mark. Then Isaac grinned.

“Benjamin! Close your eyes!”

And once again, a gold rod flying towards the god’s mouth!

.

Bang!!!

[You bastard! I’ll teach you a lesson…]

“Are you really going to attack me? In front of this?”

[Ugh!]

“Benjamin! Close your eyes!”

Bang!!!

[Damn it, you damn bastard…! Don’t you want the Saintess’s awakening…!]

“Benjamin close your eyes!”

Bang!!

…Benjamin didn’t even open his eyes anymore.
