Please Stop The Pope-Chapter 75
75 episodes
6.
The case was finally closed when the children from the orphanage were admitted to a government-run facility.
There was no extensive media coverage.
It was not because the Korea-Japan summit was being held, but because it was to reveal all the corruption related to the orphanage at once.
I even got a phone call from President Suh about it.
- We will make sure that all those involved in the orphanage pay for their sins. I don't know if you don't like it, but I would like you to leave this case to us. It will take some time to give Kim Si Woo Awakened the authority that is appropriate for an irregular. Until then, please be as careful as possible.
I couldn't help but feel like the president would say that.
The fact that he made a phone call in person even in the midst of the hectic situation caused by the South Korea-Japan summit talks could be seen as an expression of sincerity in his own way.
Anyway.
After such a troubled night, the next morning.
I had a lot to think about, so I came to the temple early in the morning, and I was able to see a man and a boy who had come out before me and were sweeping the floor.
"Oh, have you come out, Pope? You're coming out earlier than usual."
"Hello Pope!"
"Good morning, Brother Jin Seo-joon. Good morning to Sungwoo."
The identities of the two were Seung-woo and Seung-woo's father, Jin Seo-joon.
Jin Seo-jun, who had been hired by the church as a temple caretaker since he was discharged from the hospital, had always taken care of the temple with such diligence.
I looked at them both with a smile.
The rich man's expression looked really happy.
"Isn't Seungwoo going to school today?"
"I had some time to spare and was helping my dad."
"Our Seungwoo is so sincere. Siyeon was still asleep until I came out."
"Beauty is supposed to be a sleeper, hehe."
It's true that our Siyeon is pretty, but it feels weird when it comes out of her mouth.
I think I've seen the two of you flirting lately.
But Jin Seo-jun was right next to him, so he couldn't say anything.
I don't like it, but let's get over it.
"So, how are you doing with Archbishop Leo?"
"Yes!"
"Isn't Archbishop Leo teaching too strict?"
"It's nice that you're always friendly. Sometimes, Luna even comes to help!"
Since returning from Japan, Seungwoo's education has been entirely in charge of Leo.
Seung-woo is the chosen child to be a prophet.
Prophets who join the denomination must be familiar with the doctrines and divine power that a prophet must be taught.
They need to receive a much more specialized education than the Divinity players who have just joined the cult.

It may be a bit overwhelming for a young child, but Leo and Luna seem to be teaching him wholeheartedly.
They were both prophets, and they loved children, so they weren't too worried.
"That's good."
When Seungwoo joined our church, he was classified as an awakener.
So I was assigned to the elementary class at the Awoken Academy, and I've been going back to school since last week.
Seungwoo's face was definitely brighter than when they first met. It seems like only yesterday that I prayed so earnestly for my dad to be saved, but now I couldn't see the shadow on his face.
It was a change that I couldn't help but be proud of.
And it is.
"I am always grateful to Limen and the Pope. I will repay this favor for the rest of my life."
So did Seungwoo's father, Jin Seo-joon.
By the way, Jin Seo-joon is one of the people who was baptized through a baptismal ceremony last time.
Thanks to this, a subtle divine power was emanating from his body.
"Limen already knows your sincerity. If you're happy here, you'll be satisfied."
If Sungwoo's prayers hadn't been heard by me, they wouldn't have been here.
Jin Seo-joon must have died after being attacked by a thug in the emergency room.
Seungwoo would have died or been sold to the same daycare facility we saw yesterday.
I was grateful for their presence.
When I came out early in the morning to see this rich man taking care of the temple, I felt that all my worries had been in vain.
It wasn't complicated from the beginning.
As was the case in Eden, our denomination only needs to work to make as many people happy as possible.
If you see a bad guy, you can sort it out without anyone noticing, and if you see a good guy, you can help him.
Isn't that what a denomination is all about?
I looked at them and smiled pleasantly.
"I feel like I've been given a precious gift since morning. Looks like it's going to be a fun day. Thank you."
"Yes?"
"There's something like that. The weather is nice."
After all, for me, it's best to keep it simple.
I think the reason I had a tight chest last night was because I was worried about not fitting in.
I smiled at them, bowed my head, and walked lightly toward my office.
I felt like my head was fresh.
7.
There was a reason why I went to work early in the morning.
"For the first time, my second son, who used to commit unfilial piety every day, feels like a filial son. You don't know how much I bragged about it when I came out of the house in the morning. I managed to dissuade him from insisting that he really wanted to see Pope Kim Si Woo."
"I think it would have been nice if you could come with me."
"We talk a lot. Haha!"
I smiled softly as I looked at the chairman of the cable group, Choi Kil-young, who was smiling kindly in front of me.
It was said that there was no one under his father, and Chairman Choi Kil-young was as protective as his son, Chairman Choi Seo-jin.
His strong muscles, which belie that he was 67 years old, and his physique of just over 180 clearly showed that he was the father of CEO Choi Seo-jin.
There was no doubt that he was quite different from the image I had of the chairman of a chaebol group.
Wearing glasses and an intelligent and gentle atmosphere. That was the rough image I had of the chaebol presidents, but after all, people have to meet them in person.
However, there seemed to be no doubt that this person was quite an unusual character among the chaebol presidents.
If things don't go well, is it just a matter of feeling like you're going to solve it with your fists?
"Originally, I was going to visit you in person."
"A thirsty man digs a well. Pope Si Woo Kim. It's only natural for me to come and see you."
The timing was also good.
The media's eyes were focused on the Japan-South Korea summit, and Ground Zero, where the shrine still stands, was a controlled area, so there was no place as secure as here.
Since he also used a secret doorway (a backdoor dug by the large guilds) to enter, the probability that this encounter was exposed was extremely low.
That's why I deliberately made an appointment early in the morning when no pilgrims entered.
Anyway.
As I drank the green tea that Leo had given me, I said to Chairman Choi, "I don't know what to do."
"Usually others call me an awakener rather than a pope. If you don't feel comfortable with the title of Pope, you can call him that."
"He's the leader of a denomination, and it's disrespectful not to call him pope."
Certainly, he resembles his son in this regard. No, in this case, should we say that the son resembles the father?
"Also, the reason why I am here today is not to be an individual-to-individual, but to discuss the affairs of the Remen Church with the Wired Group. So I think it's natural to be called pope."
His resolute tone gives a rough glimpse of his personality.
If we add principled principles to Choi's personality, it seems to be exactly like that.
There was no reason to stop someone from calling him the Pope.
Chairman Choi took a sip of the green tea in front of him, smiled softly, and continued.
"I've heard you're interested in distribution. I'd love to hear more about it."
"Well, I think it's quicker to see for yourself. Archbishop Leo?"
At my call, Leo walked into his office with a small plate. He carefully placed the plates on the table between me and Chairman Choi.
On the board were two bottles of low-level holy water, one of intermediate holy water, and a bracelet of the holy stone made of lesser holy stones.
By the way, that bracelet is of incomparably inferior quality to the one I sold to the Goblin Guild.
Unlike the bracelets that Leo himself blessed, it was the new members of our denomination who blessed them.
- Consecration is also the most basic blessing. I educate the chicks, I make bracelets. In the meantime, if you see a talented friend, you can raise him to be a consecrated priest. Isn't this a trio?
And this bracelet is not the result of me, but the result of Luna's idea.
I don't know who I learned it from, but it was a great idea to grind the underneath.
The low-level Holy Stone used to make the bracelet was converted by Luna herself.
Luna's sincerity is in it.
In addition, it may not be as good as a bracelet made of the finest sacred stones, but it certainly has a beneficial effect.
It's even classified as an item > by the system, and it will definitely help the health of ordinary people, not players.
"These are holy water and bracelets that we want to sell."
"Can I ask you to explain for a moment?"
"Absolutely."
I gave a brief explanation to Chairman Choi, who seemed interested.
The lowest-grade holy water and sacred stone bracelets that will also be sold to the general public.
After hearing the explanation of the two, Chairman Choi nodded with exclamations.
"If it proves effective, it's definitely going to be a lot of money."
"Right?"
"Health has been a long-standing problem for mankind throughout the ages. Players who are recognized for their healing abilities are often hired by wealthy people in different countries for astronomical sums of money. It was one of the reasons why their ransom price became so expensive."
There are many people who don't spare money for their health. In the first place, these two products will be marketed to meet their needs.
It was the same in Eden.
The biggest source of revenue from the sanctuary was the wealthy aristocracy and the merchant class. And the denomination continued to carry out a wide variety of activities, such as relieving the poor with the proceeds from the sanctuaries.
You could call it a kind of remening redistribution. And I'm going to continue that on Earth.
"It's already interesting enough with the two products. It is the first product on Earth to use divine power...... I think there's going to be a huge demand."
"I'm in trouble if you're surprised here. It's really about this one."
I said that, lightly shaking the bottle of intermediate holy water.
"It's called intermediate holy water. Before I get into the details, I want to tell you that the U.S. government has already purchased the 50 percent."
In front of the chairman of the cable group, which is ranked fifth in the business world, a full-fledged medicine show began.
8.
The office of the chairman of the wired group.
Choi Seo-jin turned to his father, Choi Gil-young, who was looking out the window, and asked.
"What do you think, Father?"
"He's such a funny young man. From the first time we met, it was the first time anyone had openly tried to rip me off. I almost pulled out the pillars of the group."
"So, did you pull it up to the root of the pillar?"
"If you pull out the pillars, what will we live on? Instead, I decided to build a pillar for you."
"You have a very bright face for what you have done."
"Loss? Hahaha!"
Choi turned around, laughing out loud. He looked at Choi Seo-jin and said.
"Do you really think it's a loss?"
"How could it be? Thanks to me, he helped the Remen Cult, and I asked him to give him something."
"Goyan. I'm going to eat something more from old Abby. I don't have anything to eat. I'm going to grab a few bottles of wine from the liquor case later."
"Hmph. I won't refuse."
As a drinker, Choi Kil-young's liquor case had a lot of hard-to-find drinks. Choi nodded contentedly, then slowly moved closer to his father's side.
Before she knew it, she turned to her son who was standing next to her.
"A merchant must adapt to whatever the world may be and make a profit. There are so many ways to adapt. The best thing I can do is for me to change the world. You don't even have to adapt to the world you've changed."
Choi Seo-jin listened to Choi Kil-young's words.
His father is usually more talkative when he is in a good mood. In other words, he was feeling very good right now.
"But if you can't choose the best, you have to choose the next best thing. The lane is......."
"Stick to the guy who changes the world."
"Yes. That's the next best thing."
In response to his son's answer, Choi nodded in satisfaction.
"Still, among my children, Seojin has the best eyes on you. I'm glad I did as you said and went see for myself."
"I guess you liked it that much."
"I just like it. That guy named Kim Si Woo is the one who can change the world. No, more precisely."
Choi Kil-young remembered the face of the young pope, Kim Si-woo, whom he had seen earlier. He concluded with a deep smile.
"He's bound to change the world."
Please stop our Pope
