We crossed the Honey Milk Forest and returned to Honey Milk City.

Killer bees were buzzing around us and following us, but they didn't attack. It seemed like the Killer Bees had sensed our strength and were reluctant to confront us directly.

When I arrived at Honey Milk City, it was already Saturday. I went into the pig den on Wednesday and came out on Saturday, so I was underground for 4 days. We immediately took the warp gate and went to Brisen City.

Jazlyn and Calele went to the palace to register a new dungeon, and I and the rest of the wives went home. As soon as I enter the house, warm and familiar air welcomes me.

Haha. "No matter what, home is the best."

"Eui~ There's a lot of dust in the house~"

"Jenny. "I'll ask you to clean it."

"Yes. "Zion."

We washed with warm water, relieved our fatigue, and had a peaceful day.

******************

The next day, Sunday morning, came.

Today, I plan to visit my Good Luck Temple with my wives to see if it is running well. This is my temple that Lena built with magic after killing the vampires last time. Since it is Sunday, Cardinal Siri is conducting the service.

I took a carriage with my wives and left for the Lucky Temple.

"Hey Siri. Did a lot of people come to the last service?"

"For now, there are dozens of poor people around us."

"How much money did you receive?"

"There are more people who can't pay. "I manage the temple with the deposit given by the owner."

"Are there any other problems?"

"Baron Torben, the district custodian, is claiming ownership of the temple. He said that if he refused, he would take it even by force."

"This isn't going to work. Jazlyn. Think of a way to punish Baron Torben. "We have to eat all that land somehow."

"Yes, honey."

Thor Ben put it out of his head and asked Ciri again.

"Hey Siri. How are the number of believers increasing?"

"I asked believers to recommend it to people around me."

"Is that all?"

"Yes…"

Siri lowered her head in embarrassment. There is a limit to the expansion of religion if believers only bring in people around them. People meet people of similar social status to themselves, so if believers are poor, there is a strong possibility that poor people will flock there in the future. Also, unless believers have professionally learned evangelism methods, it is difficult to even persuade people around them to come to church.

Siri was the successor to the criminal organization 'Bloody Rose' and was not in charge of missionary work. It's also my fault for letting Siri do something she can't do. In times like this, I should set an example. When I was on Earth, I learned a lot from my friends who were cult leaders.

Before we knew it, the carriage was approaching the Lucky Temple.

"Tell the carriage to stop."

The carriage stopped.

"Master. You have to walk for about 20 minutes to the Lucky Temple."

"Are you okay. I'll show you how to gather believers. "Hide, watch, learn, and teach other believers."

"I understand."

"It's the same with other wives."

"Yes. Honey~"

"Kyahaha~ I'll use it on my clan members."

We got off the carriage. When I ordered them to hide, the wives disappeared with a sigh.

"And. "He hides really well."

I tidied up my clothes appropriately.

'When proselytizing, appearance is the most important. Luckily, I'm wearing neat, designer clothes.'

I looked around and found someone who seemed suitable for missionary work. She is an ordinary woman with long hair who appears to be in her mid-20s.

'She wears a lot of bracelets and necklaces on her body. When women are lonely or mentally unstable, they wear various things on their bodies. The more a woman like that, the easier it is to get into his heart. Her clothes look relatively clean, and she is holding a bag on her right arm. Is she a grown up woman from an ordinary family? He seems to be a perfect candidate for missionary work because he still seems to lack social experience.'

A person lifts a bag or places an object in the direction of the psychological defense. Therefore, it is relatively easy to become friendly if you approach the other person's open space. He smiles comfortably and approaches the woman from the left.

"Hello."

When I said hello, the woman looked me up and down and then greeted me face to face.

"Hello!"

When I saw the woman's expression, I felt like my muscular, youthful looks and expensive fashion passed the test. Remember, no matter how good you are at talking, you won't even be able to talk to someone if you are negative about your appearance.

I asked a question, scratching the back of my head with a slightly embarrassed face.

"Can I ask for directions?"

"Ask."

I need to think of a place this woman might know too. In order to increase the convenience of the Fortune Temple, she recalled that Jazlyn had built a Fortune Shop nearby.

"Do you know where the lucky store is?"

"You mean the recently built large store?"

"Yes."

"If you keep going down that road, you will see a tool shop. Turn left there, then turn right again next to the spaghetti restaurant."

"Ah… It's very complicated…"

"I see… I think it will be difficult for first-time visitors."

"If you are not busy, could you please guide me? "I'll buy you coffee in return."

"Really? Hmm…"

The woman is slightly wary. You need to change the direction of the conversation right away to prevent the woman from thinking further.

'Should I say it positively? Or should I say it negatively.'

What I'm trying to do is cold reading. When a fortune-teller meaningfully says, 'You see red,' we automatically fit memories into it and say, 'I got hurt three days ago and bled! It's the same principle as saying, 'How did you know?' Positive speech is saying, 'You are blessed.' Negative speech is saying, 'I see darkness in your future.' Usually, people who come to fortune-tellers come because they are anxious, so they use negative language, but when you meet on the street, you have to figure out whether the other person is happy or anxious and speak accordingly.

'Let's bet on the negative.'

"But I see a dark energy around you."

The woman is startled by the sudden words. "Huh?! What does that mean?"

"There is a dark energy around. Do you have any guesses? "If things don't go well…"

The woman answers with a dark expression.

"My father got sick. When I went to church, I was told that it is a disease that costs a lot of money to treat… A commoner family like us cannot afford it."

"It was like that. "My father got sick because there was a dark energy in his body."

"What do you know!"

When a person's weak point is stabbed, he becomes defensive.

'I went too hard from the beginning. Let's keep pushing.'

"You know that too, right? I'm sure it's not just my father…"

"Gasp!"

The woman is so surprised that her face turns pale.

"Oh, that's right. "My mother was also fired from her job at the restaurant."

"Is your work okay?"

When I asked as if I was worried, the woman lowered her head and answered.

"So I'm looking for a job, but there's no place that hires me…"

"Also. "It was just as I thought."

"So what should I do?"

"By driving out the dark energy from your body, you can solve problems at home. Please follow me."

The woman is shocked. I guess I need to give it another shot here.

"Meeting with me is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity given to you by heaven. I don't care if you ignore me now and run away. However, you will live an unhappy future surrounded by dark energy forever. Your father will soon die, and your mother will also become ill."

The woman trembles with her pale face.

"Da, who are you? "Why on earth are you helping me?"

"I'm late in introducing myself. I am Zeon, the leader of the Lucky Church. My purpose is to spread good luck to people. You are also lucky to have met me."

"Ah! Good luck bridge!"

The woman remembered a recent religion. She said that a huge stone temple rose overnight on the site of an abandoned building. I remember the believers of that temple coming out and serving and cooking meals for the poor, holding signs that read 'Lucky Church.' Somehow, my trust in this man seems to be increasing.

The man smiles confidently and suggests again.

"Would you like to follow me?"

"Yes. "I'll give it a try."

When the man turned and walked away, the woman followed him.

"Oops. What is your name?"

"This is Leonora."

"Mr. Leonora. Let's go."

I, Zion, walked to the Temple of Fortune with Leonora.

[It's Lena. I'm going to walk to the Lucky Bridge Temple, so I'd like some directions.]

[Huh! From there, go straight ahead.]

[What do other wives do?]

[Everyone is following Zeon around.]

[Tell Siri to go to the temple first, dress as a pastor, and greet me when I come.]

[I understand!]

I went to the Temple of Good Luck with Leonora. Statues that look exactly like me are erected here and there on the stone mansion streets around the temple. Leonora was curious and pointed to the statue.

"You look just like Zeon."

Haha. "It's natural because I'm the bishop here."

"Then is it true that Zeon performed a miracle here and created temples and stone mansions?"

"That's right."

"Wow…"

'This woman. 'You don't know how to be suspicious of people.' When I reached the temple, Siri, dressed as a pastor, ran out, bent his upper body to 90 degrees and bowed.

"Zeon, the god of luck and the abyss. Welcome!!"

People around me hear Siri's cries and recognize me.

"This is Zeon, the one who created miracles! "I saw it!"

"Wow! "The bishop has arrived!!!"

I smiled kindly and easily and waved my hand.

Haha. I am Zeon, the god of luck and the abyss. "If you hold my hand, good luck will come to you."

"Waaaaa!! "Lucky!"

"I want to be lucky!!"

As people flocked to me and held out their hands, I held their hands one by one and gave them a blessing.

Suddenly

"Luck is coming."

"Thank you!!!"

Suddenly

"Luck is coming."

"Oooh! "I won't wash my hands!"

A young boy comes and holds out his hand

"Good luck even if you gain weight!"

Suddenly.

"Ruler. Grow up happily."

"It's amazing~"

When I held my hand appropriately, Siri drew people in at the right time.

"God is busy. Everyone, please get out of the way."

"Please hold my hand too!!"

"Luck disappears from those who defy God."

"I'm sorry…"

I solemnly entered the main gate of the temple with Siri by my side. Leonora followed behind, intimidated by my majesty. If you have come this far, Leonora has been completely captured.

Siri pretended not to notice, glanced at the woman behind her and asked me a question.
