Somebody Stop the Pope – 167

[Breaking News] 3rd World Awakening Forum Site Attacked by Terrorist Attack!]

“US White House Spokesperson: ‘Our anger has reached its limit. We will move in earnest.’”

“The explosive remnants found at the scene of the attack were found to be Chinese. Is China behind this attack?”

“Chinese Foreign Ministry: ‘The organization behind it is the Purifiers. It’s a criminal organization that even we can’t easily control.’”

Even after the Dimension Opening the United States still reigned as the world’s most powerful country.

If you stab the US in the stomach with a dagger like that would the US stay still?

It was unusual for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs to respond immediately and the US response that erupted after hearing the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ response was also unusual.

“If China is not capable of dealing with the Purifiers then accept our Awakened ones. The same goes for Europe. If they are not capable of directly rooting out the Union then leave it to us. They are taking it easy.”

This is now a charter plane returning to South Korea.

The Awakened Forum naturally ended in a blur.

This is because anyone who was even slightly involved was arrested in the United States and those who were not involved were advised to return home quickly.

It was said as a suggestion but in reality it was closer to a threat.

But no one said anything to the American side that had turned a blind eye.

Rather everyone went back first for fear of sparks flying.

Oh by the way my family wasn’t kicked out.

I was the one who identified the villains until the very end. That’s probably why I was treated so extravagantly.

“Our boss is a person who speaks his mind. It’s too bad. I wish Aiden had come to Korea with us.”

Raphael who was sitting next to me and looking out the window blurted out a word.

As Raphael said the members have changed a bit since we came here from Korea.

Lady Emma and Aiden are gone and replaced by Grace and Raphael.

The number of passengers on the plane was the same but the composition had completely changed.

I don’t know if it’s because the composition has changed but the atmosphere has changed so drastically that it’s serious.

Even Siyeon who became quiet and Snow White who kept bumping her head into Siyeon.

Grandmother and Inwook sat next to Siyeon and continued to stroke her head and back.

“It seems like the shock hasn’t subsided yet.”

“…There’s no choice. It was the best decision.”

We tried to cover Siyeon’s eyes but we couldn’t hide everything.

A horrific terrorist attack scene.

Siyeon took in the sight. If it had been a normal child she would have fainted long ago but Siyeon held on to her senses until the very last moment.

“How about seeking psychiatric treatment as soon as you return to your country?”

When Raphael said that Siyeon who had been sitting quietly suddenly jumped up from her seat.

And then he slowly came towards me and stopped.

“Big brother.”

A demonstration that calls me quietly.

I nodded while holding Siyeon’s hand.

“Yeah Siyeon.”

“Does your older brother always go to places like that?”

A question that suddenly came up.

His voice was not at all reprimanding me. Rather it was a voice soaked in moisture and filled with worry.

That voice left me speechless for a moment.

“I’m sorry oppa. I didn’t know you only went to such sad places… I’m sorry for acting so upset when you didn’t play with me.”

Siyeon came into my arms with tears in her eyes. And for a long time we just pressed our faces against each other without saying a word.

I could only pat Siyeon’s head as she cried in my arms.

My special and lovely younger brother.

How precious and loving it was that you thought of me even in such a terrible situation.

Siyeon cried silently for a long time and then raised her head with swollen eyes.

“You’ll get rid of those bad guys oppa?”

“You’re not going to tell me not to do it?”

“You’re the strongest in the world. If it weren’t for you wouldn’t more people get hurt?”

“yes.”

“If I catch you I’ll be the worst person in the world. I don’t want to be a bad person.”

Siyeon sniffled.

Then he wiped his eyes and continued speaking.

“Losing people you love is a terrible thing isn’t it Oppa?”

“Our demonstration has become an adult….”

That was when.

Woohoo.

A warm energy rose from Siyeon’s body for a moment and then disappeared.

And it wasn’t just me who felt that way.

Leo who had been quietly watching me and Siyeon spoke to me cautiously.

“Your Majesty just now…..”

“…I know that too.”

A small seed grew inside Siyeon’s body.

The seed of undeniable divine power.

Although it was in its primitive form it was a seed that would sprout with divine power if touched even slightly.

I scratched my cheek as I looked at the seed.

“Things have gotten a bit complicated.”

After a while a message window appeared before my eyes as if to confirm it.

[The fate of <Kim Si-yeon> as a <prophet> is granted to believer.]

[You have encountered someone who possesses the <Prophet’s Fate>. Whether you awaken that fate or not is entirely in your hands.]

“ha.”

Why of all people why our demonstration?

7.

The departure was from Incheon International Airport but the return was from Seoul Airport in Seongnam.

It is said that this airport is originally used to welcome heads of state or VIPs but given the circumstances the government has directed our plane to Seoul Airport.

Incheon International Airport is said to be currently half-paralyzed.

In South Korea security screening has been strengthened and incoming flights from overseas have been put on hold.

When I heard the story I heard that the Union also threatened terrorism in South Korea.

Perhaps it was because I had cleaned out the Union guys on the Awakened Forum.

Even as South Korea entered emergency mode I was eventually able to return to the temple.

The atmosphere of the holy place was not very good either.

A chaotic atmosphere.

That’s probably because the Union side also threatened terrorism against the Limen Church.

Thanks to this our school’s students including the police were patrolling periodically.

“I will now begin an emergency meeting.”

As soon as I returned to the temple I started the meeting.

The attendees were the executives of the Limen Church and allies of the Limen Church.

From the government side Director Kim of the Department of Ability Management attended as a representative.

“You may have seen it on the news but I went to the US and stirred up a hornet’s nest. So I’m organizing this event to discuss countermeasures.”

A somewhat stiff atmosphere.

The first to speak was CEO Choi.

“Is there any other solution? Everyone just needs to be a little more careful. The Pope just did what he had to do.”

And Archbishop Laparte received these words from CEO Choi.

“Chairman Choi is right Your Majesty. I don’t think there is any other way than to be a little more careful.”

Since then there has been talk of countermeasures.

Deploy additional agents from the Ability Management Department and form a patrol team within the Holy Land centered around the first batch of trainees.

At the same time a new sacred barrier will be created to protect the temple.

While I was returning home the meeting proceeded naturally as if they had prepared in advance.

The talk about the security and safety of the temple and the holy place lasted for about an hour and only after that was over did I get to introduce my new friends to the members of the sect.

“Aiden and Emma will remain in the US. The circumstances are what they are. Instead two new faces will be staying with us here for the time being. Say hello to Raphael Grace.”

“Hello everyone. I am Raphael an irregular from the United States. I will be staying here for the time being. If you need any help please let me know.”

“My name is Grace Barkley. I will study hard while I am here!”

“Raphael is a scientist. If you need any help in the future you can always ask for help. And Grace… I think you can think of her as a foreign student sent by the Vatican. I think you can treat her as my direct disciple.”

Although he was a foreign student who arrived at a bad time he had already completed the payment at the Vatican.

It was polite to teach with as much sincerity as the money I received.

“To avoid confusion over titles Grace will now call me Master. Please be aware of this.”

This part was also agreed upon on the plane.

Grace who has a different religion than I couldn’t help but feel a little awkward calling me Pope.

Because Catholicism also has a Pope.

Every time you call me Pope you probably feel like you’re blaspheming.

So we took that part into consideration.

“Then that’s it for today’s meeting.”

That concludes the urgent agenda.

“Everyone except the leaders of the church may go back. I appreciate you gathering here despite your busy schedule due to the Lost Lands.”

I heard that CEO Choi Min-soo is currently spending his days in a state of chaos in the Lost Land.

I was grateful that he willingly accepted my invitation despite his busy schedule.

“Thank you. It is only natural to come when the leader calls.”

“…The leader?”

“Isn’t the Pope the leader of this nameless league? Haha!”

To the master and the leader.

I feel like my titles have become too varied lately.

President Choi smiled heartily looked at me and said.

“Attacking the Limen Order is tantamount to attacking our own alliance. Don’t worry Pope. We will come whenever you need our help. You saved me and my men before.”

CEO Choi lightly clenched his fist.

“We owe you our lives then. So just tell us whenever you want.”

“We too.”

“We too…”

Seol-hwa and Min-su nod their heads following CEO Choi.

After listening I realized they had something in common.

All three of those people would have died if I hadn’t intervened.

Min-su to his doppelganger CEO Choi to the god of the fallen world and Seol-hwa to that strange slime.

They were all people who met a miserable end.

“There are countless people other than us who will answer the call of the Limen Church.”

Still I didn’t live my life in vain.

I bowed my head politely to the three people looking at me and saw them off.

So the outsiders are returning.

The only ones left here are the church leaders and Grace Raphael.

Now it was time to resolve the issues within the church.

“Raphael.”

“yes!”

“Can you work on it right now?”

Among the things Raphael told me in LA were things about how we could temporarily resolve the current lack of contact with Limen.

“All right.”

Raphael nodded and moved his right arm ‘David’.

Then soon a device the size of a computer main unit that Raphael had brought into my office earlier was moved onto the table.

One of the devices that Raphael came to Earth and continued to study.

“Let’s call it a link amplifier. With psychic crystals…”

According to Raphael’s reasoning the current lack of contact with Limen is due to the connection between Earth and Eden becoming unstable.

The temple of the Limen sect here is a place directly connected to Eden.

“As of now the signal coming from Eden is extremely weak. Based on what I checked when I came in earlier it seems that Limen’s identity is the medium of connection.”

“Raphael.”

“Yes Your Holiness!”

“The explanation is fine. And if you’re going to do it make it a little easier.”

“Ah! Sorry. This is an occupational disease… Let me explain it simply. Do you see the home here?”

Raphael transformed into a peddler mode in an instant.

Raphael pointed to a groove carved into the center of the device holding a fist-sized purple crystal in his hand.

“If you put this psychic crystal in here home.”

Click-.

I heard a clicking sound.

Woof woof woof woof woof-!

“This is how it works. Isn’t it easy?”

A huge wave of energy was released from the device.

A wave so strong that all the furniture in the office flew against the walls.

I was watching the situation while blocking the wave with a sacred barrier.

[Your Lord gives you an <oracle>!]

『…Siwoo?』

Surprisingly it worked.

Our Pope please stop this
