Luther stared at the children sitting across the street from the entrance of the alley.

The two children looked uncomfortable as if Luther's eyes were burdensome.

Luther asked.

"Where are your parents?"

"Laughing!"

The girl hiccuped at the low-pitched question.

Luther seems to be scared.

The boy answered calmly.

"Take care at home."

It meant that there was a guardian, so don't think about anything strange.

Luther knew the children's situation before turning back time.

Without a guardian, he could not get a shack in a slum, so he lived in the ground.

Luther thought about what to do.

It's the sound of my heart.’

While turning back time, the devil advised him to open his closed mind.

In the end, there was only one conclusion.

It doesn't matter whether it's evil or good, so do what you want.

I wondered why he had to, but for now he knew what to do.

'Let's help.'

I couldn't get it yesterday, but I'm thinking of getting it today.

said Luther.

"No one would want to buy such shabby accessories."

Two children looked at Luther.

Luther explained.

"It's not that the market is crowded, it's because there's a lot of cheap and high-quality stuff. Your accessories will only be about 5 Cooper if you hit them well. All you can buy with that money is a slice of bread at best."

Realistic advice made the boy bite his lips and the girl cry.

"Oppa, is what he said true?”

"No, it can't be.”

Parents' belongings can't be so cheap. The boy raised his voice.

"My mother said it was a precious accessory. It's not cheap."

The price varies widely depending on how special and valuable Jang Shin-gu is. That's why it's got jewels and special patterns. Does your jewelry have those things on them.

The children couldn't answer Luther's direct remarks.

The expression of the two children became sullen as if hope had been dampened.

Luther offered.

"That doesn't mean you can't sell it. Will you accept it if I help you?"

The children's eyes widened.

The boy showed his guard.

"Why are you trying to help us?”

"I'm telling you, I'm doing it because I want to. If you don't like it, I won't recommend it anymore."

The boy was in conflict and soon decided. I couldn't trust and follow the person I saw for the first time.

"I refuse."

"Okay."

Luther accepted neatly and got up from his seat.

The children looked at Luther.

He lifted himself up and went straight into the alley.

The alley was dirty.

There were piles of trash and stinky dirt.

Luther searched through the garbage and picked up what he needed.

They were mostly broken glass and rotten branches.

Luther connected a rotten branch with a broken glass and made it into a polishing tool, and began cutting stones.

The children's eyes were filled with curiosity.

The stone was not soft enough to be cut with broken glass.

Though solid, Luther was the Master of Looner, and the Master of Looner saw through everything in the world.

When I touched the weak spot along the grain, it fell down on its own.

Luther began sculpting stones to make sculptures.

The sculpture was the central temple of the Anhesians. Several columns were attached to the square roof.

There was no need to bond separately when making and inserting joints.

Although the form was sloppy due to lack of manufacturing materials, it was similar at a glance.

The girl I was watching. Emilie's mouth let out an exclamation.

"Amazing."

Several stones were used to build a mysterious house.

The two children stared at Luther's results.

There was someone interested in the sculpture of the central temple of Annes, which Luther had offered.

A passerby, an avid believer, approached Luther.

"Isn't this the central temple of Annes?"

"That's right."

"You're good. Sell it to me."

Luther looked over at the passerby.

She looked rich at a glance, dressed in quality silk and tunics.

Luther raised the price on purpose.

"Golden."

"Hmm. Expensive."

"Thanks to you, even if you don't go to the central temple, you can see it up close."

A passerby who was in conflict with Luther's words decided. 

"I'll buy it."

Gold coins came out of the wide sleeves.

The passerby asked after the deal.

"Can you make a statue for me?"

"I'm not good enough.

"But. Not everyone can make a statue. But the temple you built is quite worth seeing."Passers-by turned and the children stared blankly at the gold Luther had in their hands.

Luther looked at the children.

"Can you do a errand for me?"

"Is it a errand?"

"It's not difficult. Buy food from the market with this money. I'll give it to you, too."

Emily jumped up.

"I'll be right back!"

The boy also slipped to his feet.

When the gold was handed over, the children disappeared like the wind.

There was a lot of food in the arms of the children who returned.

"Let's eat now."

Spreading the robe, they had a meal with toasted bread, fruit, and sliced meat.

The children were frantic in their food.

The faces of the children, who were quickly sold out and full, looked happy.

Luther asked.

"What's your name?"

"I'm Hansen, and this is my brother Emily."

Sharing the food made me less suspicious. The children's eyes were full of goodwill unlike before.

"You look like you're from a slum. Am I right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"What about your parents?"

Hansen didn't lie like before. Sadness came to his face.

"He's gone.”

"What happened?"

"He's sick, but he died without treatment.”

Tears like chicken poo flowed from the children's eyes as they remembered while talking.

Luther penetrated the children's situation.

"The jewelry is a relic. How have you been?"

"I stayed in the slums because I had nowhere to lose. There are only bad people there. They try to make us do bad things whenever they have time."

Luther nodded while listening to Hansen, who was in anger.

'You're right in nature.’

Usually, living in a slum makes you adapt to the environment.

So the children of the poor are evil.

It is common to cause all kinds of crimes, such as stealing and pickpockets, but these children did not.

His parents seem to have raised him well.

Luther suggested to the two children.

"Will you follow me? I'll tell you where to eat and rest while doing your chores."

"Really?"

Hope filled the children's eyes.

Luther nodded.

"Yes, I'll help you."

It wasn't just for necessity, it was just for help.

Laughter came to my mind after a long time on the faces of children holding hands earlier.

He hums and smiles a lot. Luther, who was following, turned his head.

The devil walked side by side and smiled as he appeared before I knew it.

"Now it's worth seeing."

"Was this what you wanted?"

The devil asked back Luther's question.

"What did I want?"

"Wearing about others. Wasn't it?"

"Yes, but in the end it was for you. Why do you think I've influenced the world through religion?"

When the devil mentioned why he influenced the world through the church, his frowned impression revealed his curiosity.

He asked.

"I wonder, why is it a religion?"

"It was to clean up Ener."

"What is Ener?"

"In a nutshell, it's mental strength. I call it the cultivation of the mind, but my subordinates regard it as the performance of God. This ener interferes with the existence of all life and interacts with each other. In the process, by-products arise, which is the expansion of mental strength and is called Ener."

Luther was difficult to understand.

"What exactly does it mean to interfere with the existence of another life?"

"You still don't understand. It's better to watch it once than to listen to it a hundred times. I'll show you the world of Ener."

As soon as the demon was finished, the devil put his palm on Luther's forehead.

Suddenly, a flash broke out in front of me and soon it became a dark world.

Luther looked around.

It felt like I was in the middle of the universe. But there are countless stars everywhere.

asked the devil, who appeared before I knew it.

"This is my Enerda. Look. There are so many beings like that star."

Interest arose in the words of the devil, which pointed to the lights of large and small.

Luther asked.

"What's the identity.

"Human. It is the heart of humans who follow religion through faith. I made a religion and established a god to idolize him. And those beliefs led to me and became Ener."

The devil reached out his hand.

White light crept into his hands in the dark.

"This is Enerda. It's an extension of mental strength and a basis for not being eaten by one's own power."

Luther had a rough idea of his explanation.

"It's like power."

"I did think of it there, but it's completely different. Power is a compulsory means of increasing power, but Ener cannot be obtained unless he is deeply followed by his heart.""How do you take Ener through the Church? Shouldn't we go to the god they serve?"

"Who made the god?"

"Oh, I see.”

Even though God is different, the owner of the being is one.

Even though they believe in different religions, they are eventually introduced to the evil king.

Luther's expression was strange.

No matter how deep it is from the heart, it was a process of interconnection to the devil.

But it was good.

He didn't care what the devil's way was.

The important thing was yourself.

"What happens when you get Ener?"

"I can handle mana for now. In other words, your body will never collapse."

Ener can embrace mana.

Luther nodded.

"Okay, so how do I master the ener?"

"Simple. I can transfer. And as soon as you learn, you will see more than the current rehearsal process."

Ener was a unique ability discovered by the devil. 

Only his transfer was the answer.

Luther nodded.

"Okay. Teach me."

"I'll start."

The king, who spoke solemnly, pointed his finger at Luther's forehead, stepped back, and smiled.

"It's over."

"Is that all you have? Just take a picture of your forehead?"

"Hey, isn't it time you got to know me? How long are you going to look suspicious?"

"It's curious that Ener, who teaches you, is so easily passed on."

"Huh. I just took out what was there. That's why I tried to make you feel better. Ener must gain his heart by interfering with more beings. That way, Ener can expand and reach the present."

"That's why you've created a religion that's influenced you so far."

"Keep that in mind, you have so far restrained your emotions and closed your mind. Now you must interfere with all beings and lead your heart to you. From now on, the world you see through Ener will be different. You'll have to get used to it."

As soon as the demon was finished, the Ener of the Devil disappeared and the market container appeared again.

When I came to my senses, the children were looking at me anxiously.

"Hey, are you all right?"

He looked at the children asking and felt a sense of shame.

There was a different color on the children's chest. And the light was connected to itself like a string.

Luther observed the shape with curious eyes.
