Chapter 254 - Episode One - A Certain Fixer's Ambition (1) (Side: Peter)

The main reason why Peter, the de facto head of the Dinrat Kingdom, was visiting the f.a.ge territory was because he had business to attend to on that stretch of road, and he wanted to hear more about the incident caused by the Riveras Kingdom while pa.s.sing by.

So, what did he want to do in the far end of the frontier f.a.ge Territory, the easternmost part of the Dinrat Kingdom?

It was Peter’s long-cherished wish, the resurrection of the G.o.d Kudor.

It is said that after destroying the four great creator G.o.ds, G.o.d Kudor left behind the words, “I will go into a deep sleep,” and disappeared into the sea, never to be seen again.

That was the last day of the mythical era.

Peter, with the help of Zolomonia’s wisdom, discovered that the G.o.d Kudor was sleeping in the eastern-most part of the Dinrat Kingdom, and set out for the eastern-most part of the Kingdom to break the seal of Kudor.

On the way, I pa.s.sed by Lark’s mansion, so I merely inquired about the unsettling movements in the Riveras Kingdom.

…… But as a result, I suffered unexpected damage to my body from the f.a.ge territory and had to have my subordinates take care of me for a while, so I thought I was just stopping by, but I ended up losing a lot of time, but there’s no point in regretting that now.

Peter had already joined up with the men he had sent from another route, and the number of men gathered had increased to thirty.

I can’t let it leak out that I’m trying to break the seal of the G.o.d Kudor.

Therefore, the number of people who can move in unison has been reduced to the minimum. That was thirty people.

He had them observe the magic field around the area, but so far they had not found any strange deviation.

After Peter finished listening to the regular reports from his subordinates, he returned to his carriage to rest.

“Fufu …… fufufufu ……”

Peter laughs feeling good.

No particular progress had been made regarding the G.o.d Kudor.

However, it was clear that his long-cherished wish was getting closer to being fulfilled.

Next to her, a blue-skinned child woman emerged.

She spins around and sits triangularly in the air with her legs bent.

It was Zolomonia, the demon of wisdom and destruction.

Zolomonia is the one who told Peter where the G.o.d Kudor is sleeping.

“You seem to be in high spirits. Are you so happy to see the Lord G.o.d, Peter?”

“Glad to see? Fufu …… No matter how much you decorate him, G.o.d Kudor is just a lump of ridiculous magic power. It’s nothing more, nothing less.”

“I’m surprised. It’s surprising that a man who used to be the Pope would say such a thing.”

Peter is the head of an extremist religious organization that is well known to both the royal family and the church.

His true ident.i.ty is that of the former pope of the Kudor Church.

Peter’s life has been prolonged by the use of forbidden magic, and since he is no longer able to appear on the stage, he has been forced to act behind the scenes.

“I did have faith in the mythical G.o.d Kudor. But the G.o.d Kudor didn’t create humans, humans created Kudor, right?”

“Oh my …… mistress didn’t teach you that, but it’s amazing of you to know that. I’m sure there’s not much left of the mythical era, though.”

“Who do you think I am?”

Peter had seen a part of the ma.n.u.script of the Great G.o.d’s Treasure Book, the treasure of the Kudor Church.

Peter opened the box secretly on papal authority, read it, and learned many hidden things about the Kudor Church.

This was also the factor that made Peter decide to prolong his life through forbidden magic.

The ma.n.u.script of the Great G.o.d’s Treasure Book was in a box that was strictly forbidden to be opened at the back of the Kudor Church.

The original ma.n.u.script of the Great G.o.d’s Treasure Book was written in the mythical age, and it is a legendary book that contains not only the history and beliefs related to the G.o.d Kudor, but also the connection to all the truths of this world.

It is said that the original book was burned down thousands of years ago, but it is not known for certain.

It took Peter many years to decipher it, though he only received a transcribed and partially translated version.

“So …… what does the former Pope Peter want with that extraordinary ma.s.s of magical power?”

“That’s obvious. It’s not about wis.h.i.+ng, it’s about using. I will unite the five great nations under the control of the G.o.d Kudor, and eradicate all the demon wors.h.i.+p that is spreading in the world. Then, I will create a new country …… no, a new world. Perfect, eternal peace …… eternal utopia …… where I will reign as absolute monarch forever and ever. Yes, I will be the G.o.d of the new world! Fufufufu …… I won’t let anyone get in my way.”

Peter said fervently.

He was excited as he said it, and his voice was slightly louder.

Peter naturally sat back down and stroked his own cheek, his expression returning.

“I guess I was getting a little carried away.”

Zolomonia shows her teeth and smiles innocently.

“Kakaka, Peter amuses me more than I thought he would. But do not underestimate Kudor. If you fail and end up incurring his wrath for no reason at all, you could lose the country itself, not to mention your eternal utopia.”

“It’s not that I’m underestimating it. I’m just giving it the benefit of the doubt. It’s a weapon built to be controlled by people. Isn’t it natural to think of it as something that can be mastered?”

“I doubt it. I don’t know. To me, Peter seems to be in a great hurry. Are you frightened, Peter? You have met with the man from Jurem, what did he say to you?”

Peter’s eyes widened and he looked at Zolomonia’s face.

Peter was a little surprised by Zolomonia’s friendly tone towards the person whose name he had mentioned, but he quickly smiled again.

“I don’t care. As long as I have the power of the G.o.d Kudor, I’ll be the first to get rid of that guy. What’s more, how are you two so close? Is he a friend of Zolomonia-chan or something?”

“Yes, we are acquainted. But I don’t know him that well, so I can’t give him much advice, and I don’t want to. If you’re going to kill him, I won’t stand in your way, but I’m not inclined to support either side.”

“Hmph.”

The Count of Julem is a monster who is said to have been present at almost every important event in the world.

There is a strong aspect of mere gossip and lore, and there are only a few people who really believe in his existence.

There are many people who make fun of the rumors and claim falsehoods, and now we have no idea what is true and what is a lie.

He is a person shrouded in mystery.

It is commonly believed that he was an ordinary count six hundred years ago, and that he later gained some kind of power and became a monster, but there is also a story that he existed in this world long before that.

Peter pulled back the curtains of the carriage with his hand and turned his eyes to the sea to the east.

Then he sniffed.

“The sea, the sky, and the earth are all so beautiful …… There are too many selfish fools in this world. If everyone were to do the right thing, everyone would be able to live happily ever after …… Someone is pulling someone else’s leg. So I’m going to guide all of humanity with the power of the G.o.d Kudor. Isn’t that wonderful, Zolomonia-chan?”

Zolomonia didn’t respond to that, but laughed hysterically.
