I Am the Only Totem in This World - I Am the Only Totem in This World chapter 114

114 – Episode 114. Choseon in the corner of the room (6)

Episode 114. Chosun in the corner of the room (6)

– Paladin Noah.

“Yes!”

Before going to the cathedral, I contacted Seokchoseon in the room through Noah.

The possibility that Charon had lured me by manipulating the corner of the room was close to zero, and the probability that there were believers of the Goddess religion in the cathedral, even if they were not the Pope, was high, but there is something in case.

I have not completely let go of doubt yet. There is also a group of paladins like Dina Commando, so isn’t it a bit strange that the request came to us?

Still, in this case, the special forces were requested first, but the number of personnel had been greatly reduced due to Asha’s plot, so it can be said that the special forces were unable to help.

In any case, even if he was being threatened by the Darwinist school that joined forces with Charon, it is suspicious that a man named Pope would so easily open his hands to a pagan god.

“Ah, they just confirmed that there were no signs of demons and lifted the barrier. “I’ll be waiting for you inside the cathedral.”

– Inside the cathedral?

Normally, I would have gone in thinking, ‘Well, I’ll just take a look,’ but for some reason, I didn’t feel like it. What if this is a trap?

In the cathedral, which is the home ground of the Goddess Church, there is a pope who can bring out the function of the cathedral to the best (I don’t know much about it).

– I am reluctant to enter the altar of another god. You’ll be moving right away, so tell them to gather their things and come outside the cathedral.

It seems like he’s too suspicious of the subject who came all the way here to save him, but let’s say he’s being cautious. Well, if nothing happens, you can accept him as a member of the Tribal Federation right away.

It’s your first time and you’ll be monitored like all new members, but if it’s concluded that there’s no plot involved, you’ll be able to get along well.

“I came here to understand! Oh, text!”

– Wait over there.

In an open space, I waited for Choseon and the Pope in the corner of the room with Lake, Paya, Noah, and Teunteun.

As if Rake had not completely resolved his doubts, he placed his hand on the meteor sword.

“Ah, there it comes!”

After a few minutes, the people who had been waiting appeared. There were about ten people, half women and half men.

“Second… This is the first step in the corner of the room. “You are Malak and the members of the Tribal Alliance, right?”

The thin female paladin waved her hand in front of her with a slightly anxious expression. She was an introverted and timid woman.

– Who is the Pope?

“Ah…!”

It seemed like he was surprised by the talking totem, but he soon realized that I was Malak and forced a smile.

My friend is good at social life.

“hahahahaha! This greeting is late! “Thank you all for your hard work coming all the way!”

Cho-seon was about to open his mouth again, but the middle-aged man who suddenly ran next to him was faster.

This man is… What should I say? It looks like something that would appear when you turn on a current affairs debate or politics-related channel.

“Great being! His name is Holland, the Pope of the Goddess Church! Thank you for your help! “I will never forget this favor!”

One voice is at canto level. The Pope finished his self-introduction with a chuckle. No matter how you look at it, he looks more like a politician than a pope.

By the way, it is very different from the image of the Pope I had in mind. He thought it was a position that could only be held by someone who was strict, solemn, serious, and sincere about religion.

It doesn’t look strong. Being the Pope may not mean being someone with superhuman strength like the Paladins.

“…It’s an honor to meet you, my God.”

“I feel a sacred and powerful deity.”

“I heard that you are a strong and brilliant person. “When I saw him up close, I felt that he was truly a great person.”

The people who flattered the Pope and others behind his back were also ordinary. Just nuns and priests. Like Sister Grace who joined the Golden Sun tribe.

No matter how you look at those slender limbs and physique, they are not for combat.

– Pope Holland. Are you serious about wanting to join the Tribal Alliance?

“Of course!”

– Do you know what kind of person I am?

“…Of course.”

– Tell me what you know.

“Aren’t you Malak, the God of Storms? I heard that He came down to help all humans on earth. “I found out about it through a first-order paladin here.”

The Pope understood the community of paladins as a concept similar to ‘telepathy.’ Like other civilized people, they don’t seem to think that paladins are possessors.

… Wow, this is a little weird. Didn’t the evolutionists call Noah a ‘possessor’?

Let’s move on for now.

– Do you know what happened between me and Ishtania?

I once destroyed the cathedral of the Goddess Church. To be exact, it’s not me, but it’s a real shame.

Archmage Beatrice said that my name was written in many important documents of the Goddess Church. There is no way the Pope, who is the actual supreme authority of the Goddess Church, would not know.

“…You two don’t get along well.”

It was a Pope who spoke in as many ways as possible.

– Do you know about Ishtania?

I asked if they were aware of situations in which believers of the Goddess religion might end up relying on pagan gods.

“…”

The Pope looked troubled and had a fake smile on his face. It’s hard to say. After remaining silent for a few seconds, he opened his mouth again.

“Ishtania knows everything. Even if you don’t communicate with me and other believers, you know everything.”

Hmm.

“He is the one who gives revelation and power, not the one who listens to prayers. He does not interfere with our judgment…. Even in situations like this.”

This is a somewhat understandable answer. It was a year called Yu Hee-shin. You can get an estimate just by looking at the possession of Earthlings as Holy Knights.

This land is a playground, and believers will think they are just little animals following me.

“I don’t know if I got an answer. Ha ha ha… “

Well, I knew from the first time I saw him that he was losing his faith. Because Holland was standing in front of me in casual clothes.

The Pope is not wearing a Christian uniform… It was very clear from the beginning.

Perhaps the Pope also vaguely realized something in the midst of an unprecedented disaster in history. He realizes that the God he believes in and serves does not place much importance on the life of each believer.

– No, I understand.

5 Years, almost 5 years since the demonic apocalypse occurred. Isn’t that enough time to change a person’s beliefs or beliefs?

I decided to accept them.

Ishtania… Malak will take all the believers you left behind, sending only paladins.

– Do you know about the enemy who attacked the cathedral?

I told the Pope about the necromancer Charon and the evolutionist school. I was surprised to hear that the necromancer had returned.

“Even though it is a necromancer, it is an evolutionist school… “That group of unscrupulous wizards still remain.”

The Pope seemed to know quite a bit about these guys.

– They were looking for a blind nun. Do you know anything?

“If you were a blind nun… “Saint?!”

The answer came from behind. Shindo, who had been quietly listening to our conversation, reacted in surprise.

“…It’s not that there are no blind people in the Goddess Church, but the person they are looking for is probably a saint.”

The Pope, who noticed the fair-mouthed young female believer, answered.

Saint. A saint. Just by looking at him, he seems like a very important person.

“What is a saint?”

Lake, who was quick-witted, asked the Pope instead of me.

From Noble mtl dot com

She is Ishtania’s representative, and although she cannot exercise superhuman strength, she is said to be able to use special abilities such as reading the past or essence of an object.

That is why she is called a prophet rather than a saint.

“Until her destruction, only a very few people knew that the saint was blind. “I don’t know how, but it looks like they got the information.”

Cooperating with Charon to find a saint, La. No matter how much she thinks about it, she can only imagine something ominous.

– Do you know the location of the saint?

“Of course.”

Before Charon can achieve her purpose, I must first secure the saint. I heard from the Pope that it wasn’t that far away.

If you take a sturdy train, you will be able to get there within an hour.

-I will come back after seeing her saint. Please wait a moment.

If they are still in that location, I plan to evacuate them to our tribal alliance.

“You will need me to persuade the saint. Her healing and defense are confident. “After all, he is still the Pope.”

This is a person who created a barrier and blocked three mid-level demons and dozens or hundreds of low-level worshipers for several days. It would be a big help.

The Pope was placed in Noah’s place. No matter how strong a plane is, it is difficult to fly for a long time with four people on board.

“I’m leaving!”

Kwiik!

The boat carrying Lakhe, Paya, and the Pope took off.

Oh, I’d like to ask you something I’m curious about.

– I heard that if you close the portal, the demons will self-destruct. Is that correct?

Wizard Harry was not convinced, saying that this claim came from the Goddess Church. Wouldn’t the Pope know the details?

“Yes, that’s right. The presence of demonic energy is essential for them to roam this land. “If you don’t have demon energy, you won’t be able to maintain your form and you will self-destruct.”

Oh. I can trust you because you speak with confidence.

Do you know this too?

– Do you know what the devil is?

The Pope, who was talking excitedly, glanced at me for a moment.

“Malak, my words may be misunderstood… “

– It’s okay, just tell me.

What is this guy doing to make people wonder?

“Loa from another world.”

What?

“I know that.”
