Chapter 199

Fujimaru Kyoya and Chris used their powers to dispel the leprosy from these people. Just as Judas said, these people were not Israelites, but Roman citizens who had oppressed the Israelites.

However, none of this mattered to Fujimaru Kyoya.

The important thing is that once these people recovered, the Roman army had no reason to restrict them anymore.

“Our illness has been cured; Christ redeemed us. Are you locking us up here to make us contract leprosy again?”

"That's right. We were brought here because we were sick. Now that we're cured, why do this?"

"Indeed, some people are born into Rome, while others are born into poverty."

……

Such voices lingered in the city, and the Roman governor naturally could not let these people leave. Their illness was not the important matter; the key was to lure out Christ.

But the other party seemed to have divine assistance, knowing everything about his arrangements.

How exactly can this be achieved...?

"A traitor?"

If an insider exposes Christ's location, is it possible to capture them all?

This is a good idea, but finding this traitor is a difficult task. Moreover, judging from the strength the other party has shown, even if we do find him, we might not be able to capture him.

Listening to the words spoken by the people downstairs, which initially turned into insults against Rome but eventually resembled some kind of scripture, this was not the first time he had heard it.

These are the words spoken by Christ. The believers wrote them down and then recited them. It is clearly unreasonable that such a large number of people could do this in such a short time.

Could it be that the other party is really a god?

When the thought crossed his mind, it quickly faded away. After all, he was a Roman, and even if he had a faith, it should be in Jupiter.

……

"Indeed, debating scriptures is the most troublesome thing."

Fujimaru Kyoya found a shady spot to rest, and Chris handed him some water. She understood how much energy it would take to save people by constantly expending his strength, but Fujimaru Kyoya's task was not just that.

The doctrines spoken by Fujimaru Kyoya were directly recognized as heresy by the Judaism.

Although both denominations believe in one God, the Judean Church holds the view that God saves only Jews and not other races.

This clearly goes against Fujimaru Kyoya's ideas.

What followed was a series of verbal battles. Although the other party eventually fell silent, Fujimaru Kyoya realized that it was really too difficult to persuade someone with words.

This needs a catalyst.

"Chris, Judas has been coming home really late lately."

"Hmm, maybe he..."

As someone from the future, Chris naturally understood what the future Judah would do, but Fujimaru Kyoya didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

"He didn't mean any harm; he probably just wanted to play a joke on me."

Fujimaru Kyoya reassured Chris that it was just a joke, and he wasn't someone who couldn't take a joke.

To *drop 1 The Last Supper 8

Although Judas was rather arrogant and conceited, the fact that he was chosen as a disciple by Fujimaru Kyoya meant that no one had any doubts about his character.

"It's sold."

Judas looked at the thirty silver coins in his hand. He had sold Fujimaru Kyoya over such a trivial matter.

This was certainly not because he had any bad intentions; it was simply that he didn't think Fujimaru Kyo would be caught for such a trivial matter.

That is the Son of God, the savior of all people, how could he possibly fall here?

Judas did this for a very simple reason: he just wanted to get rid of those who followed Fujimaru Kyoya.

They are now in Jerusalem, and although they don't know why Fujimaru Kyoya always manages to leave before the enemy's search party arrives, this is clearly not a solution.

Especially since these people are not Israelis.

The people of Judah are not known for their tolerance; they are lenient with their own people, but they are sorry to speak of people of other races.

"Judas, where did you go just now?"

A familiar voice rang out, startling Judah so much that he almost dropped the silver coin in his hand. He turned around and saw that it was indeed Martha, that woman.

"Martha? You startled me. Is something wrong?"

“All the disciples have arrived, and they are just waiting for you. It seems there is something to announce, so they have been waiting for you.”

Martha had witnessed Fujimaru Kyoya's power and saw his compassion in healing others regardless of race; this was the reason she was willing to follow him.

Led by Martha, they finally arrived at the place where the dinner was to be held, and as mentioned before, only Judas was missing.

“One of you has already betrayed me.”

Just as Judas sat down, Fujimaru Kyo revealed that he had been betrayed, and there was no need to joke about such a thing.

Immediately, many disciples began to prove their innocence, assuring Fujimaru Kyoya that it was definitely not them, but Fujimaru Kyoya didn't care about these claims.

"I believe in you. Even if one of you betrayed me, I still believe he didn't mean much harm. So I ask that you absolutely not investigate who the mole is. Even if the mole reveals his identity, I hope you can forgive him."

Fujimaru Kyoya's words shocked his disciples. They couldn't understand why he should forgive the traitor. Martha was even more furious and vowed to show the traitor his brains.

He only agreed at Fujimaru Kyoya's request.

Under these circumstances, Judas was very uneasy. He had already thought that he might be exposed, and he originally thought that he was not afraid of being regarded as a traitor.

He would do anything to make it safer for Fujimaru Kyoya to preach, but the current outcome seems to have far exceeded his expectations.

What exactly does Christ want to do?

and many more……

A terrible thought came to Judas's mind.

"Wait, you wouldn't be planning to..."

"Don't come to save me. This is something that must be done to save humanity. Let's make a promise."

Fujimaru Kyoya patted Judah's head, knowing that the boy wasn't bad.

"We made a pact that I would be resurrected three days after my death."

As Fujimaru Kyoya said this, he walked out the door. In the distance, flickering lights could be seen; those were the troops of Jerusalem. Because of Judah's betrayal, Fujimaru Kyoya did not intend to leave just like that.

"Oh dear, although everything was going according to plan, you really made a decisive move to get to this point."

Zeus appeared in the prison cell, after all, this was Roman territory, and there was nowhere in Rome that could stop this Roman god-king.

“From our perspective, it wasn’t death in the first place; rather, it was death that I used to get back to the root of the problem.”

That's right, Fujimaru Kyoya really needs to die once. Only by getting close to death again can he easily enter the Root and then connect to the Great Source.

"Actually, you just need to..."

"But you know that's impossible."

Fujimaru Kyoya understood what Zeus wanted to say: to allow Fujimaru Kyoya to merge with Chris, and then he could freely enter the Root as a magician, without having to deal with the trouble of approaching death.

"Bearing the original sin of humanity would bring immense suffering, but that's secondary. The main problem is that countless negative emotions enter the heart, and one's personality could easily collapse. This is something I don't want to see."

If it's just about repairing the Great Source, then with the help of the White Dove, Fujimaru Kyoya could still manage it. But the problem lies in how to deal with the True Aether afterwards.

Once the Age of Gods returns, the world will immediately enter a period of pruning, which is something Fujimaru Kyouya cannot accept. And the original sin of mankind is indeed a good source of material.

It is like a net, tightly enveloping the Great Source, so that only pure magic can be released to the Earth's surface, while the essential element of the Age of Gods, such as True Aether, will remain inside.

Only Fujimaru Kyo, who possesses the "all forms are not forms" ability, can accomplish such a thing.

That's right. Even without choosing any talent, "All Forms Are Not Forms" will always follow Fujimaru Kyoya, allowing his consciousness to enter an extremely powerful realm.

"Prometheus..."

"Call me Fujimaru Kyoya. It's the name I prefer. I don't want my friends to use other names."

Fujimaru Kyoya announced his name, which surprised Zeus, the king of the gods. Finally, looking at Fujimaru Kyoya's appearance, Zeus gradually turned into specks of light and disappeared.

Goodbye, Kyoya.

"Well, if fate allows, we'll meet again."

After saying goodbye to his friend, Fujimaru Kyoya was now ready to truly await his "death."

[Your wait was short; soon came your first trial. On trial, you refused to admit your guilt, and as for debates on matters of faith, no one could rival you.]

[You're a master of online argumentation; your so-called debates are nothing more than cross-literary debates. As long as you utilize online rhetoric, no one can beat you.]

You look around at the people, some you know and some you don't. They cheer as you repeatedly silence their opponents, knowing only that this is how everything will proceed smoothly when you die.

Finally, they panicked.

"death penalty."

Without any process of argumentation, there was no need to follow any rules of the martial arts world when dealing with a heretic like Fujimaru Kyoya. What was originally thought to be a sure victory turned out like this. How could anyone not be angry?

Completely disregarding the uproar from the surrounding public opinion, the death sentence was handed down so casually.

But that's fine, it's something Fujimaru Kyou wanted to do anyway.

The news that Christ was going to die quickly spread throughout Jerusalem.

Because Fujimaru Kyoya had been saving leprosy patients during this period, not only the Israelites but also many Romans began to join in the condemnation.

After all, although they were Romans, not every Roman was a nobleman; the world was mostly made up of mules and horses.

Unfortunately, these voices were of no use. When they saw Fujimaru Kyoya nailed to the cross, their anger reached its peak, but they still couldn't break through the soldiers' blockade.

As for the disciples, they had made a pact with Fujimaru Kyoya that they could not act at this time. Otherwise, if Fujimaru Kyoya did not revive three days after his death, who would be able to bear such a price?

Being nailed to the cross was an unpleasant experience, but Fujimaru Kyoya endured it, while Zeus began his preparations high in the sky.

"My friends, do not grieve or be angry. I understand your fear of losing hope, but I promise you that the good will go to heaven and the wicked will go to hell. This applies to all races, even after I die."

As Fujimaru Kyoya finished speaking, a dazzling light emanated from his body, while Zeus, high in the sky, used his power to confuse time and space on Earth.
