How the Cult Saves t Chapter 33

Chapter 33

The ones who ca to see

were my mother and Sevenus. As soon as she opened the door, my mother ran towards .

Surprised, I sat up from the bed. Then, my mother hugged

tightly.

"Revy, Revy."

I was having a relaxing day thanks to Fanatic, who gave

a break from training because it was a joyful day.

"Revy, my son, my baby."

I was startled by my mother, who suddenly ca in and embraced . But I returned the hug, feeling the warmth of her arms.

Then, I felt one of my shoulders getting wet. At the sa ti, I saw my mother's body trembling slightly in her uniform.

My mother looked at

with tears in her eyes.

"I'm so glad, I'm so glad. My baby."

"Mother..."

My mother raised her shaking hand and caressed my cheek. Seeing her like that, I suddenly thought.

'This is what it feels like to have a mother.'

In my previous life, I was an orphan. So this was the first ti I felt this emotion.

-Sniffle, waaah...

However, the mont was ruined by Kyros, who cried like an idiot.

My mother caressed my face and hugged

again.

"Mother, thank you."

I didn't know why, but I wanted to say that.

"No, thank you. For enduring all this ti, for holding on..."

Suddenly, I couldn't answer my mother's words. It felt like there was a thorn in my throat.

It was because I wasn't the real Revelof.

'...I'm sorry.'

I internally swallowed my apology and looked away. Then, I t Sevenus' eyes, who was standing by the door.

Sevenus had reddened eyes, both when he heard the results from Dr. Frank and right now.

He looked cold on the outside, but he didn't seem to be a bad person.

I had to watch the tears of my mother and Sevenus for a while.

In the darkness where I couldn't see even an inch ahead. I was there. In a space with no end.

Then, at so point, I saw a faint light. I ran towards it. It felt like I had to do that. I ran along the path of light and kept running until everything beca bright.

'Revy! Co here.'

Two people appeared. 'My' mother and father.

I ran towards them, who reached out their hands to . I tripped over my feet and fell, but they waited for

with smiles.

I stretched out my short legs and ran hard. And finally, when I was in their arms,

'It's warm... Warm?'

Everything went dark.

Once again, nothing was visible. What followed after was a sharp pain.

It was hard to breathe and I felt like my whole body was being crushed.

'Revy, my baby...'

'I'm sorry, Revy.'

My mother and father, who were smiling brightly before, were now shedding tears. I reached out my tiny hand and wiped their tears away. Then, their tears beca thicker.

And again, pain followed.

At the sa ti,

"Hurk!"

I woke up from sleep.

"Haa, haa..."

I gasped for air. My forehead and back were damp as if I had sweated a lot.

I didn't even think of wiping the sweat off. I just sat there blankly.

'What was that dream?'

The vivid pain that I felt until just now had disappeared.

'I'm sure it hurts...'

But, it didn't hurt anymore.

'Did I have a nightmare?'

I took a deep breath and exhaled.

'The dream... was too realistic.'

The scene that I just saw before was the real Revelof's childhood. But, the dream felt too real.

I felt an indescribable emotion. Slowly, I wiped the sweat on my forehead with my hand.

It must have been caused by the tears of my mother and Sevenus from a few hours ago, that I had this strange dream.

'For a mont then, I unknowingly felt like I was the real Revelof.'

I empathized with Mother's feelings for a fleeting mont, and without realizing it, I thanked her in that fleeting mont.

Afterward, the fact that I wasn't the real Revelof hit

harder.

'Was it because I felt like I was the real Revelof for a fleeting mont that it resonated with the mory in my head?'

As I thought that, I felt more bitter.

I decided to stop thinking about it. To go back to sleep and lay down on the bed again.

But that day, in the end, I couldn't fall asleep anymore.

It had been a month since I started receiving treatnt at the Kyros Faith's Temple.

During that ti, I went to the temple every day for treatnt. Sevenus accompanied

for the first three days, but he didn't co after that. Maybe he trusted

more.

Thanks to that, I was able to visit the temple more comfortably.

Of course, the knights still followed

around, so my range of movent was no different from that of ordinary believers, but that was enough for .

By the way, it's already sumr.

'Hot, so hot.'

The season had changed to full sumr in a month.

The scorching heat made my body tired easily. If my condition was the sa as before, I would have collapsed from this heat.

But now, my condition is much better than before. I could feel it.

Maybe Malone's disease will be cured soon. My immunity improved as my body got healthier.

I had been taking Pasrel poison since I ca to this world, so it should be cured soon.

I thought about that as I strode to the prayer room. Then, I saw a familiar face.

"Welco, everyone."

The one who greeted the believers was Cyril. Oh, co to think of it, tomorrow is the day Cyril becos an official priest.

During this ti, he had been through a lot while being under Alphius' test. He seed to have worked hard to learn about Kyros and adapt to the temple life.

Anyway, for this month, ti passed peacefully. Although it wasn't really true.

'If the flow follows the original work, a big event that will shake the continent will happen soon.'

I had to increase my strength to prepare for that ti.

I had to leave the Holden mansion as soon as Malone's disease was cured. To gain more power, I had to travel a long way.

So hurry up and get better, you useless body.

The next day, in the deep night when there were no believers. I headed to the prayer room with Alphius, Chester, and Sasha.

It was to accept Cyril as an official priest.

I saw Cyril kneeling in front of the altar. It was a new feeling to welco a human priest for the first ti, not the children who were chosen by the gacha system.

I opened my mouth with a pleased look at Cyril.

"Brother Cyril, I was deeply moved by the sincere attitude that you showed us all this ti."

"Oh, no, Leader."

Cyril lowered his head with his round eyes looking at .

-I saw it. That child is very faithful.

"Kyros also likes your faithful attitude very much."

Then, Cyril's eyes sparkled. They seed to moisten sohow.

"We will accept Brother Cyril as an official priest."

I said that and activated [Agent Appointnt], which I couldn't use until now. A system ssage appeared,

[Do you want to accept Cyril Oste as an agent (official priest) of Kyros Faith?]

[Yes/No]

As soon as I thought 'Yes', a pure and holy light appeared in my hands. I pointed my hands towards Cyril.

Surprised by the beautiful light, Cyril bowed his head. When I reached out my hands over his head, the light seeped into him.

-It's weak, but it is still my power. That child is now one of us, so he can use so of the holy power.

Ah, so that's where the light ca from. There was such a function in the agent appointnt.

I spoke solemnly to Cyril, who shed a tear.

"Now, Brother Cyril is an official priest of Kyros Faith. Please continue to work hard for Lord Kyros."

"Yes, yes! Leader, thank you! Lord Kyros, thank you!"

After the priest appointnt, we had a small party in the reception room to officially welco Cyril.

The children ate and chatted with the food and drinks they bought from Rovel in the evening.

I left the reception room first. The children tried to see

off, but I refused. Sohow, it felt like I was holding a high position in a company.

I felt a strange feeling and headed to the office. Then Zain, who was initially sitting on the sofa, got up quickly when he saw .

"Master, you are here?"

"Yeah."

"Why do you look happy today?"

"It's because of the servant... no, brother, who joined us."

"Ah. Priest Cyril? Co to think of it, he beca an official priest today. He's pitiful but he was nice."

"Pitiful? More than you?"

My direct slave.

I smiled and countered him. Zain pouted his lips.

Why are you picking a fight when you can't even get your money back?

"So what about the thing I asked you to find out?"

"Of course I found it."

I sat down opposite Zain and asked him. Then Zain straightened his chest and spoke confidently,

"As you said, there is a clash between orcs and goblins on Beon Mountain."

"Really?"

"Yes. According to rumors, there is a treasure on Beon Mountain, and they are fighting to claim it."

My lips curled up involuntarily. The 'treasure' was what I was aiming for.

"But, there is one thing that bothers ."

Zain's eyes, which were playful until now, beca cold. Sensing sothing bad, I also asked him quietly,

"What is it?"

"I'm not sure, but it seems that an agent of Diego Faith often visits that area."

I bit my lip.

"An agent of Diego Faith... Don't tell ---"

"I don't have the exact information, but my guess is that he is one of the 'Apostles'."

Damn it.

I brushed back my ssy hair.

"Do you know who he is?"

Zain shook his head with a bitter face.

"I can't search that far. It's not even certain that he is a real 'Apostle'."

Even if an 'Apostle' appeared, I couldn't give up on the treasure.

"Well done."

I praised Zain with a smile on my lips. It was amazing that he collected this much information in the first place. The distance between Beon Mountain and Holden territory was quite far.

"So, when are you going to leave?"

Look at this guy.

"You asked

to get the information on Beon Mountain because you want to get the treasure, right?"

He's quick-witted.

"I'll go as soon as I get better."

"Ah. Can I prepare too?"

I grinned.

"Of course."

"Revy, how's your body these days?"

Since I started receiving treatnt at Kyros Faith, the family al ti has increased.

My mother and Sevenus often ate with

even though they were busy.

"It's better."

"Good, you look healthier as well."

As my condition improved, my mother's smile never stopped and Sevenus' expression beca brighter than before.

That's what I thought.

"But lately, you're not just getting treatnt at the temple, are you?"

Sevenus asked sharply.

[E/N: The part about our MC experiencing a nightmare (and how his feelings were written throughout the start-mid chapter) is an interesting portrayal of himself.

He seed to feel guilty as he started to familiarize himself with being Revelof Holden.

That aside, I hope you enjoy this chapter.]
