Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

'I'm the only one?'

Hwa-jin made a confused expression which prompt the goddess to continue on.

[You are the only one who came from that world. Which means you're the only one familiar with it and what's its future events.]

A grin appeared in the goddess's face.

[Of course I can't just leave my newly recruited apostles to a world the never familiar of. Since you are a former denizen of that world then you can act as like a trusty guide to your juniors!]

'I'm kinda pissed off...'

Hwa-jin icily glared the goddess. Yet she only returned it with a cheerful smile.

[Now, Now~ Orientation is now over! I shall transport you now to your world!]

The goddess turned around with light and cheerful steps.

"May I ask a question?"

The goddess's steps came to an abrupt halt.

[What is it?]

"As you know, I created so many evil deeds in my life there."

The goddess sincerely listened. Hwa-jin continued on.

"I want to correct my mistakes, no, I want to stop myself before creating those mistakes."

The goddess pondered for a moment and replied.

[So you're saying that you want me to return you in the time where you still hasn't started your evil deeds?]

Hwa-jin nodded.

"In exchange, I'll be your most loyal apostle."

Hwa-jin formed a determined face.

The goddess thought for a moment and decided.

[Okay. That's a nice deal.]

She smiled.

[Then let's start the ritual! Ah! first you still need to pick a weapon.]

"A weapon?"

[Yes~!Did you forgot? I'm the goddess of war. So my apostles should have their own weapon.]

Hwa-jin flinched.

"Are you recruiting apostles so you can wage war?"

[What?! Of course not!]

The goddess abruptly turned around and formed a shocked face. Hwa-jin let out a sigh of relief.

[You know even I'm a goddess of war, it doesn't mean I want to see human wars! It's more fun to wage war to the other gods myself than to watch your species wage boring war to each other.]

Hwa-jin didn't know whether to feel relieved or to feel disbelief of what to goddess had said.

[Which is why I recruited some apostles.]

She tapped a certain white wall and the surrounding suddenly turned black.

[The higher-ups are getting headaches. Especially my sister, Eresh. She's the goddess of underworld you see. She's been having a headache with the mortals coming from that world nowadays. Well, that world is still in the middle of civilization, not unlike the modern world you came from as Jo Hwa-jin.]

She explains everything to Hwa-jin while walking into an endless darkness.

[So we made a decision.]

A magic circle suddenly appeared underneath them and 13 things arose from the sides of the magic circle.

A longsword, spear, huge battle axe, Warhammer, a two pairs of sickle, a scythe, a bow and an arrow, a shortsword, an umbrella(?), a crossbow, chains, a harp, and a fan.

Hwa-jin was filled with confusion. If you were talking about weapons, she can understand with the others, but what's with the umbrella, fan and a harp?

She glanced at the goddess and caught her smiling.

[Now pick your weapon, my apostle.]

Hwa-jin was filled with goosebumps.
