Please Stop The Pope-Chapter 59

"There are so many other things, so why not...... No, it's still a relic of Li Men, so wouldn't that be fine?"

"I didn't summon what I wanted."

That's what I got caught in the gacha.

It was around this time that Luna and I were staring at the branches and looking serious.

Leo, too, had a serious look on his face.

However, Leo's severity was different from ours.

"Oh my gosh!"

Unlike those of us who were confused, there were a lot of emotions on Leo's face.

Leo, who usually doesn't show his emotions, was so excited that his face turned red.

"Your Holiness! Maybe this is a dream!"

"Calm down, Leo."

"You can't calm down when you want to calm down, can you? It's a twig of the beginning! A relic of the Order that disappeared 500 years ago, a branch of the beginning!"

At that, my eyes widened.

A relic that disappeared 500 years ago? That branch?

"Long ago, when Limen first descended on this earth, He blessed a great tree as a testament to the promise of a peaceful and prosperous future for mortals. It was later called the Divine Tree."

Leo continued his story with more enthusiasm than ever.

"The Divine Tree was burned to death by the Legion of Gluttony in the War of Hatred 500 years ago. One of the guards of the Sacred Tree hastily broke a branch and managed to escape, and this is it."

As I listened to Leo's story, I carefully placed my hand on the branch.

Soon, an information window about the tree branch appeared in front of him.

The twig of the beginning>

●Item Type: Relic – Remen Cult

●Origin Dimension System: Eden

●Description: The branch of the Divine Tree, which once symbolized the promise of Limen. Although the Divine Tree has been burned to the ground by demons, its will and sacred strength remain in its branches. It is also the seed left by the divine tree. Legend has it that the divine beast that protects the sacred tree is asleep.

●Active: When a branch is placed on a land filled with > of divine power, it transforms into a sapling > of a divine tree.

"That's why you broke a branch and ran away."

I let out a small exclamation as I watched the effect of the relic's use.

In other words, if you plant this branch, it will grow into something called the Divine Tree.

"The sacred wood makes the divine forces around it purer and fertilizes the earth. In addition, just being close to the Divine Tree can be expected to have a high healing effect."

"How did you lose something so important?"

“…… I don't know. The history books kept at the Vatican only said that it had been seized in a mysterious raid."

What kind of denomination was the Remen Church in the past?

If it was enough to get the Relic stolen, it would have gone as far as it went......

No, that's not the point right now.

I looked at the branch again, looking at it with a new expression. It was a relic that I had thought was a whack before, but when I heard about it, it wasn't.

Could be.

"That's awesome."

"That's awesome."

"There's no bigger slope than this! All of this is by the grace of Limen, who cares for us!"

It may be that you have won a relic, which can be said to be the first prize.

The history of the denomination that was lost 500 years ago, the Divine Tree.

When I heard about the benefits of the Divine Tree, I understood Leo's excitement.

I smiled and held the branch in my hand. He looked at Luna and Leo and said,

"Don't take a long time, plant it in your front garden."

Leo nodded in agreement.

"I see. There is no place on earth so rich in divine power as here, and it is indeed a fitting statement."

"Shall I get a shovel?"

"When did you buy another shovel?"

"In the morning. You never know, maybe you're going to get something to ask."

What the hell are they going to bury?

I shook my head off the spiciness of Luna's offering, then waved my hand in response.

"I'm planting a branch, but I don't know what a shovel. Just follow me."

"Yes."

They say that the horns are also removed, and if the divine tree is so good, it is right to plant it as soon as possible.

So the three of us went straight to the garden next to the temple.

4.

A beautiful garden surrounded by a shrine.

"Wow! It's the Pope!"

"There's a folder and a sister!"

There were quite a few people walking slowly.

They were mourners who had come here on an application.

Since last week, we have been accepting up to 1,500 people a day, but I was told that once the application is opened, it closes within 30 seconds.

It also meant that there were just as many people who had lost loved ones here.

"Thank you."

"Thank you so much for allowing me to do this."

When they spotted us, they each approached us and thanked us.

They seemed as keenly interested in us as the people we met in the morning, but they did not talk to us as actively as the people we met in the morning.

Perhaps it's because they're not here to see us, but to pay tribute.

I smiled softly and looked at the mourners. He said in a low voice.

"Right now, you have to apply to get in, but you'll probably be able to come and go soon."

At my words, the mourners began to murmur a little.

"The cleanup of Ground Zero here in Seoul is coming to an end. Thank you for your patience."

It is certainly unfortunate that you cannot come to the place where your loved ones are laid to rest and commemorate them freely.

I know that feeling better than anyone else.

In Eden, we couldn't go to the ossuary where our parents were kept.

The government could have given us the authority to allow no one but members of our denomination to enter, but that was not what I or Limen wanted.

A place open to all.

Just as the Remen Church of Eden did, so will the Remen Church of Earth.

"Our denomination will do its best to make it easy for you to come and go at any time. May you and those who sleep here be at peace."

I bowed slightly to them, and Leo and Luna followed me in greeting me politely.

Clap.

We slowly stepped aside to the applause of the mourners.

"Your Holiness."

On my way to plant a branch, Luna smiled and spoke to me.

"Why?"

"No, sir."

"Tell me."

"It's just, he was a bit like the Pope. You don't usually look like the Pope, but when you look like a real Pope, do you?"

"Your Holiness always shows himself as the Pope, Lord Leventon."

What does it mean to be like a pope?

Luna gave me a look of disapproval, then smiled broadly again and whispered quietly:

"May Limen protect our dear Pope to the end."

“…… Shyly. Oh, I've arrived."

"Look at the way you spin, you're cute."

I stared ahead, no matter what Luna said.

This is the place that came to mind as soon as I heard that I needed to plant a branch.

It was a large lawn on one side of the garden.

Compared to other places, I thought about planting something because it felt like it was empty, but maybe Limen had foreseen it so far.

She has foresight.

I walked to the center of the lawn and breathed as I pulled out a branch from my bosom.

Soon, two system message windows appeared in front of me.

[The current location has an abundance of Holy Power >.] [You can use Relic Start Branch>.]

Since the Token > of Limen is placed in the basement of the temple, it is naturally rich in divine power.

"Now, let's plant it."

I carefully inserted a branch of divine light into the lawn.

After a while.

"Oh."

The light from the branches quickly spreads out in all directions, and in the blink of an eye, the branches grow to the height of my waist.

It could no longer be called a 'twig'.

"This is the sapling of the Divine Tree...... Indeed, it is exactly as it is written in the Bible. Even though it is a sapling, I dare call it sacred."

"That's right."

As Leo said, it was a "sapling." He was also feeling a powerful divine force.

"It is written in the Bible that the sacred tree is inhabited by the animal that protects it, that is, the divine beast."

"Divine beast?"

"Yes, but for some reason, I can't seem to see the divine beast."

That was then.

Woooo

Suddenly, light erupted from the sapling, and soon it took the shape of something on the grass in front of the sapling.

It looks like this is the Divine Beast that Leo was talking about just now, but it's small and has pointed ears.......

"Cat?"

It was just like a cat.

But Luna shook her head at my words.

"Aye, Your Holiness. It's a divine beast, a divine beast. Something cool like a unicorn ....... appear."

Meow!

"Aaaa It's a real cat! His Holiness! Look at him!"

“…… It's a munchkin."

Before we knew it, there was a baby munchkin with snow-white fur.

He stared at us into the distance, then ran up to me and started rubbing his head against my leg.

[Divine Beast > recognizes you as the master.] [The Divine Beast > shares the growth with the Divine Tree >, and the more the Divine Beast > grows, the more effects it will give to your Cult.] [The growth of the Divine Tree > is achieved through the good deeds and main quests accumulated by the members of the Cult.]

In short, the more you grow it, the better it will become.

I closed the message window and smiled as I patted the head of the beast that had sunk into my arms.

It was quite different from the image I expected, but I was satisfied that the possibility of growth was open.

And what's more.

"Cute."

It's fatally cute.

I wonder if she can be so cute.

"Can I take you home?"

I heard from Inwook that Siyeon wants to have a cat these days.

He said he couldn't adopt Siyeon because he was allergic to cats, but wouldn't it be okay if he was Shinsoo?

"Probably possible. Divine beasts and divine trees are connected as spirits. But you'll need to be close to him to share the divine power, so you can't keep it away for long."

"Leo. You said you saw it for the first time today, how do you know that?"

Leo replied by holding up the Bible in his left hand.

"The Bible contains all the truth."

"I studied from a textbook, or something like that."

I don't know because I've been in Eden for 10 years and I've never read the Bible properly.

The same goes for Luna.

"I didn't know."

"That's because Lord Leventon didn't come close to the Bible."

"Oh, I'm a saint, so it's okay. I'm sure Limen understands that."

…… Luna: Sometimes it's hard to wonder if she's a real saint.

I stood up with Shinsu in my arms, who was singing a bone song. He looked at Leo and Luna and said,

"I'm leaving work first."

I can't wait to go home and show Siyeon a divine beast. And give it a name. If you keep calling me a divine beast, it's kind of heartless.

"What about us?"

"You two must stay and guard the temple. They built a monastery and a headquarters for the Holy Knights, so let's go and set it up in advance. Oh, and you're saying you're leaving the hospital today. Leo, you can go and get me."

"Then your sir."

"Tomorrow she's coming home. I'll go home and do some cleaning beforehand, and give my beast a name. There's so much to do."

They immediately looked at me disapprovingly.

His face was full of frustration with my orders.

So I looked at them proudly and said,

"If you twist it, you're going to be the Pope. Isn't it?"

Miyaaaa

The beast in my arms rubbed its head against my chest and made a sound.

Is it because he's a divine beast?

It's amazing to see how he understands people.

Anyway.

Now that we're done with the boudoir, let's head back home. But why are my ears so itchy?

Who's talking about me?

5.

Same time.

The new Blue House located in Sejong Special Self-Governing City.

"Okay, so let's get the meeting started. Minister Yoo Seon-ho. What did you say the U.S. and Japanese sides requested?"

At the president's question, Minister Yoo Seon Ho sighed heavily. He replied in a low voice.

"I have requested that the Republic of Korea awaken be dispatched to the operation to subjugate the Yamata no Orochi, a national crisis beast that has emerged near Japan's Miyagi Prefecture."

"A national crisis...... It's the second tier, isn't it?"

"Yes, it is. It occupies the second place in the international demon rating."

"Be that as it may, it's unusual for them to ask for our help. But I guess that's not all...... Are there any additional conditions attached?"

"Yes."

"Let's take a look."

"The U.S. side is strongly requesting that the contingent include Kim Si-woo Awakener."

"Hmmm. Why do you think they made such a request?"

At Yoo's words, the smile disappeared from the president's face.

And Minister Yoo Seon Ho spoke softly to such a president.

"The U.S. contingent list includes their regular, Aiden Howard, aka the Barbarian."

"Barbarian? No way...... Do you mean that barbarian?"

"Yes, that's right."

Minister Yoo paused for a moment, then concluded with a slightly distorted expression.

"Apparently they want to try Korea's first irregular."

Please stop our Pope
