Chapter 243 Trouble at the Church
Sure enough, after hearing this complaint, he couldn't help but laugh.
It wasn't that he was being cruel, but Park Young-myung had been saying this for a long time.
Every time he saw him, Park Young-myung would blurt it out.
Lee Bang-myung had gotten used to this daily complaint and now found it amusing rather than comforting.
Park Young-myung, frustrated, looked at his cousin but couldn't say anything.
He was very lucky in most things, but he lost his luck when it came to getting a spot in the beta test.
He even spent some time writing to the officials every day, begging them to give him a chance.
He said he couldn't stand not having <<God's Games Online>> anymore.
Leaving aside Park Young-myung's situation, in the game, Orinthia Castle was becoming more and more lively.
It wasn't just because the reputation of the Church of Light was spreading to the cities around the Royal City of Orinthia, attracting more and more people.
It was also because King Varis had sent out letters, which led many nearby countries to send their envoys to discuss how to fight against the demon army.
Among them, many players saw the capital city so lively and wanted to come there to observe the main storyline up close.
They all knew that something big was going to happen in the capital.
Fortunately, Hanjun saw that the church renovation was nearly complete and didn't say much more about it.
Once he activated the church in the Royal City of Orinthia, the players would be able to respawn there freely.
Today, the outside was very noisy.
Hanjun had just walked around the church, with the person in charge of the construction project behind him.
Before Hanjun could even mention any dissatisfaction, he heard a commotion outside.
Given the recent good reputation of the Church of Light, there shouldn't be any trouble outside the church.
What was happening?
However, no one came in to inform Hanjun, so he had to go outside himself to see what was going on.
When he stepped out, he saw two groups of people facing off at the church entrance, with a lot of recent Church of Light followers and curious onlookers around.
Hanjun was puzzled and didn't understand what was going on.
It was only when Master PungPong and the others saw Hanjun come out that they remembered the Holy Son was still inside and quickly pulled him to take control of the situation.
Hanjun: "…"
At least from this spot, he could see the people confronting each other at the church entrance.
The newcomers were dressed in very fancy and eye-catching clothes, with jewelry and gold rings on their fingers that were very noticeable.
They didn't look like locals from the Kingdom of Orinthia.
Hanjun listened carefully and finally heard Master PungPong explain the situation clearly.
As Hanjun had guessed, these people were not from Kingdom of Orinthia.
They had come in response to King Varis's invitation to discuss how to fight against the demon army.
However, after these people arrived in the Royal City of Orinthia and heard about the Church of Light from all around the city, they came to the church and started arguing loudly in front of many followers.
A man flaunted his gold ring and declared, "The Church of Light is a fraud, and the God of Light is a fake deity. If the God of Light hadn't disappeared for so long, the people of the world of eorera wouldn't have had to endure the demon invasions for over a thousand years. So it's all the God of Light's fault!"
"The demons are attacking you, and you still worship the God of Light? Don't you see through the God of Light's tricks? Who knows, maybe one day the God of Light will abandon you again. What will you do then?"
These words stunned the people and players present.
Most of the crowd, who were not very religious, thought the man's statement made a lot of sense.
Soon, more people began to agree with him.
Master PungPong thought the man's words had many flaws.
Like most players, he had no religious beliefs, meaning he didn't believe in the God of Light either.
He just felt that the people here were being too extreme in their views on deities.
The God of Light's mistake was letting the people of the world of eorera develop under his watch.
When problems arose, the people might see it as the god's fault for not helping and then start resenting the deity.
But humans are supposed to save themselves.
If they don't put in the effort, how can they survive?
Now that the God of Light is willing to help humanity, if everyone works together, they can overcome the darkness.
Why are these people trying to create discord?
What are their real intentions?
Master PungPong and the followers started arguing with the newcomers.
The argument got so loud that Hanjun had to leave the church to see what was happening.
Seeing Hanjun, the leader of the opposing group decided to stop talking.

He waved his sleeve and called his people to leave.
Before leaving, he said, "Don't worry. At this meeting, I will suggest that the representatives from all countries carefully consider the Church of Light. Just wait and see!"
The next day, Master PungPong learned from Princess Sarag that the man was from a country behind the Kingdom of Orinthia, called The Freehold of Veranil.
The Freehold of Veranil was a wealthy nation with rich lands and trade routes.
They earned eighty percent of their money from their thriving business.
This meant that as long as the Kingdom of Orinthia was safe, the demon army wouldn't affect their profits.
This made the players very angry.
The Freehold of Veranil was a country that was benefiting from the protection of the "big tree" of peace but was now cursing it.
It was truly ungrateful.
As The Freehold of Veranil's representatives arrive in the Royal City of Orinthia, more and more countries responded to King Varis's call and sent their own envoys.
