The God's Games

"I didn't think the Church of Light would hide so many secret recipes. If I hadn't specifically asked for it, the Holy Son probably wouldn't have told me about it, would he?"

The king smiled as he munched on the crispy skin of the fried chicken, saying nothing.

If Hanjun were there, he would probably shout that he was being wronged.

The fried chicken had nothing to do with him—it was invented by the players who wanted to make money on their own.

How could he be blamed for not saying anything?

Even though, as someone who had also lived on Earth, Hanjun certainly knew how these small treats were made.

But he wasn't the kind of person who would just tell others everything.

Seeing Princess Sarah sulking, King Varis said calmly, "If you don't eat it, I'll finish it all."

Princess Sarah pouted but finally stopped complaining and sat down to eat.

King Varis said, "Even if he doesn't want to tell you, what can you do about it?"

Princess Sarah had no response.

The main reason was her pride.

As a princess, she naturally thought Hanjun would try everything to please her.

So, she just assumed that Hanjun would tell her everything he knew.

Now that she thought about it, Hanjun, as the Holy Son of the Church of Light, would never treat a princess in such a humble way.

King Varis added, "Honestly, you shouldn't have approached the Holy Son using your status. Maybe he would have helped you out a little if he respected you."

He was talking about the acceleration growth potion Hanjun had revealed earlier.

Hanjun still had many secrets and inventions that could help the kingdom.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to expect Hanjun to offer them up on his own.

That's why the king had sent his beloved daughter to test him, but all she brought back was a recipe for milk tea.

Then, the heroes from the Church of Light even embarrassed them with fried chicken, making it look like the Church was trying to show off.

If Hanjun could read their minds, he would probably just say, "You're overthinking it."

If they weren't so suspicious, they wouldn't be guessing so much about others.

They also didn't realize that the Church of Light never hesitated to share what they knew.

On the day the church was fully repaired, the followers finally stepped inside.

Hanjun even called the players to help welcome the followers, offering them with free check-ups, and answer their questions.

They were ready to help with any doubts people had.

Especially when news spread to the Royal City of Orinthia that there was a secret recipe for growing food in Ulon Town, more and more people became interested, and their main concern was all about food.

They thought the Church of Light would keep this secret tightly hidden, but it turned out that if they asked any of the heroes, they knew exactly how to answer the question.

The heroes were even kind enough to ask the followers if they needed any help.

It seemed like they weren't worried at all about the secret getting out and were very willing to help people.

Because of this, even people who didn't believe in the Church of Light were moved by their actions and started to believe that they truly wanted to save humanity.

While the Church of Light was quickly gaining followers in the Royal City of Orinthia, things on Earth were also busy.

The National Institute of Science and Technology reviewed the game report about <<God's Games Online>>, which Lee Bang-myung had submitted.

In the game, Lee Bang-myung was just a normal NPC character, but even so, this character gave him many ideas for his report.

He wrote down almost every feeling he had in the game, which helped the professors clearly understand how amazing <<God's Games Online>> was.

In Lee Bang-myung's report, he wrote that the most incredible thing about this holographic game was that even though people spent hours playing in another world, it didn't weaken their bodies.

Instead, because of all the running around in the game, their bodies didn't just stay fit but actually became stronger.

Lee Bang-myung boldly suggested that if this was the case, could it mean that magic from the game might also be brought to Earth?

This guess surprised the professors.

When they called Lee Bang-myung in to ask what evidence he had for his idea, Lee Bang-myung said, "Isn't the change in the body can be used as a proof?"

The old professor rolled up the report and tapped him on the head, saying in frustration, "Have I been teaching you all this time for nothing?"

Making bold guesses isn't wrong, but you can't just make them without any evidence.

This is news that could affect social order, so you can't just jump to conclusions.

Lee Bang-myung held his head, feeling unconvinced. "Then how do you explain why the body gets stronger after lying down and playing games for a few days?"

This was indeed a reason to keep researching.

The old professor turned his head to the person next to him, "Professor Ahn, did you find anything during the process of taking apart the game pod?"

Professor Ahn looked at the gameplay report and suddenly remembered the time when they dismantled the game pod.

The strange thing was, there was no difficulty in taking apart the game pod.

The chips and codes inside the helmet didn't have any problems, but this game pod could still bring people into a holographic game.

Later, they added some things to the game pod and then put it back together.

They found that the game pod could still enter the game successfully.

Their code had no effect, and it didn't disappear or do what it was supposed to do.

It was like the game pod could recognize which programs were friendly or hostile and was confident that, even with other chips involved, it wouldn't be affected.
