Chapter 1179 – [The Changing World]

Ominous is ominous, and I’ve decided not to move, at least not right now. It’s not our job right now, and besides, we’re on vacation right now.

If there is a problem, you can deal with it then. On the other hand, I came to the trip, but there was also a father’s heart that he did not want Eden to get involved in the incident.

I came on a trip, but I feel dirty when I work!!!! Imagine the feeling of an employee receiving a work-related call from his boss while on vacation!!!

So I’ll leave it alone until I officially ask for help. I don’t know, I don’t know if I can handle it on my own.

Anyway, we decided to do some sightseeing while the Vatican team returned from dispatch. In particular, thanks to the Pope’s help, we were able to see famous attractions and artworks by opening separately at night instead of during the day when people are crowded.

“You must work hard until night, so I need to make a donation.”

“Yes, Eden. Maybe even the Pope will be proud of that.”

“Anyway, it’s useless these days, so can I donate about 10 billion won? Besides, it’s going to cost a lot of money to maintain a place like this.”

“……?”

Ji-hee, who had half of the shares in the Garden of Eden and did not know that Eden also hoarded as much money as Keter earned, expressed her doubts.

It’s because it’s useless, but Eden is rich enough to pay for his own food. It’s only natural for me to spend my parents’ money because I’m just a child, so I make me carry a Zion card.

Stay up all night to see all the cathedrals and works of the Vatican. Even so, I was a little short of time, but I was able to see most of the important things.

Ji-hee couldn’t even think of moving, especially in front of Michelangelo’s The Creation. Even if you are not a religious person, there is something in that work that makes you feel awe.

After a night like that, go back to the hotel, rest, have breakfast, and get a good night’s sleep in the morning.

It’s an immoral act to eat and sleep in the morning, but since we’re on a trip, whatever we do is our mind.

“Ugh, I’m going to gain weight like this”

“It’s okay because I moved that much.

“If you’re steaming that much, you’re steaming a lot!!!”

“You really thought you wouldn’t get fat on a trip? In Italy?”

“…That’s not it.”

I’ve seen many attractions in the Vatican, so I’m going to take a leisurely rest today. And in the afternoon, they go to Antonio’s restaurant, Golden Table, and eat.

Since he already knows how much Eden eats, Eden will be able to have a satisfying meal there.

“Then what do you want to do tomorrow? I want to go, are you there?”

“Hmm… Venice. Every time I saw it on TV, I thought it was pretty, but I want to go there.”

“Ah, I want to go there too. It’s a place where famous works have been set.”

“Oh, Eden is interested in that too. What kind of work are you talking about? The Merchant of Venice?”

“Spider-Man Far From Home”

“No, there’s Spider-Man?!”

“I don’t know why Paris in France is Paris in English, but I read it as Paris as it is in French, but I don’t know why Venice is read as Venice, the English pronunciation.”

“Maybe it’s because it’s Italy, so it’s playing the 5th drip again. Are you Kiacho?”

Anyway, after relaxing, we visited Antonio’s restaurant in the afternoon. Originally, it was a famous restaurant in Italy, but today there were no guests, but Antonio intentionally emptied it to treat us.

I was going to give him money for that, but he said he couldn’t get money between friends. So, instead of money, I also decided to catch, groom, and send the Garden of Eden crops and the chickens, which have been struggling with the increase in numbers these days.

“Uncle Antonio’s restaurant is going to be closed!!!!”

“Eden said that he decided to take it down!!!!”

And Eden practiced what he said.

The taste is already a famous restaurant, so even if it’s second, Eden went and ate more than 100 meals alone. Since it is a course dish, the amount itself is smaller than normal, but it is beyond imagination.

Even if it’s just the alcohol I drank there, it’s a few bottles. No matter how much you sip as an accompaniment and the wine is relatively low in alcohol, you can get drunk if you drink several bottles at a time, but Eden was not drunk.

What? Does it absorb alcohol as it is converted in the stomach? Oh, that must be the correct answer

“Seeing how delicious the food is, cooking is rewarding. I wonder what it will be like when that child grows up.”

“I’ll eat that much more. To be honest, whenever Eden cooks these days, I’m running out of time if I don’t help him.”

Antonio just smiles satisfactorily as he sees Eden eating well. When I see Eden eating well, I feel like all the fatigue from cooking is gone.

In any case, the meal at the golden table was satisfactory. Eden also had a lot of delicious food, so he had a happy expression all the way back to the hotel.

Soon the next day, we prepared to go on a planned trip to Venice. Even if they are in Italy, Rome and Venice are quite far apart, just as Seoul and Busan are not the same neighborhood.

So today I’m thinking of going on a private plane. However, it does not take that long unless it is a country with a large land mass like the United States as long as it is in the same country.

Just as I was about to leave, a call rang on my cell phone.

“What? Huh?”

“Dad, what’s wrong?”

“No, the pope has contacted me”

I exchanged contact information with the Pope to let me know when the exorcist task force priests who were dispatched returned, but it seems that they came today.

I answered the phone thinking that I should postpone my visit to Venice, but it didn’t seem like I was contacting you because of that.

“Yes, Pope. Looks like the Vatican team is back, right?”

-…….Sorry to disappoint you about that. However, I contacted you because it is an important matter.

“Hmm……”

Apparently, the ominous premonition I felt at the time was correct. No, if the day you go is market day, then the incident will happen at this timing.

I want to ignore it as much as possible, but… Eden is looking at me with interest from the side, and the pope, who is the other person, is a religious person I like quite a bit. Natural monuments need to be cherished and protected, but even priests who can be in a dangerous situation are great guys.

It is better to sell first. If you’re going to get tangled up anyway, it’s better to deal with it quickly and enjoy the trip. Isn’t that why you tried to take care of work at the beginning of the trip?

“What happened?”

-Do you know about the island of Poveglia?

“……Is that where the problem occurred?”

-Yes that’s right.

I have a hunch that Eden would be better suited for this problem than me.

*        *    *

I know a lot about Italy, so there were some ghost stories among the stories I heard. The story of Poveglia Island is one of them, so to speak, it is like the Italian version of Gonjiam.

It is a story that in the past, when the plague was circulating, people were driven there to isolate the infected and more than 100,000 people died, and later, doctors who built a mental hospital and worked there committed terrible things to patients.

As you can see from the typical story, it is a simple ghost story. However, it seems that this was not a mere ghost story.

-The thoughts of the people who died there were very dark. As the damage caused by this became so great, our exorcist task force used to visit there every year to purify the thoughts.

“Then, the place you were dispatched to must be there… But does that mean there is a problem this time?”

-Originally, I should have been contacted after the existing work ended, but now it is impossible to even contact them. Furthermore, according to the report of the nearby priest, it is not easy to approach Poveglia Island due to the flow of unusual energy.

“I’m sure something went wrong.”

– Those dispatched there are the elite among the elite. If there is a problem with them, it will not be enough to solve it with the power of the remaining people alone. So would you please lend me your strength?

I thought once.

First of all, the opponent is the Pope, and the people in crisis are also the Vatican team I saw last time. A plus point for being a true religious person.

In addition, the Vatican team is an expert in spiritual enhancement techniques that Eden wants to learn. They have to be alive so Eden can learn it easily.

Last but not least, the island of Poveglia is an island located in northern Italy.

By the way, Venice is also in northern Italy. Can you get a sense of it at this point?

Poveglia is an island south of Venice. To the extent that it wasn’t even a few kilometers away from Venice. Hagisa No matter how hard you try to drive the plague-infected people, you won’t leave them on an island in the middle of the open sea. In any case, it should be close to the land.

Under certain conditions, I decided to accept this request. The demerit of ignoring is greater than the merit of accepting.

“Let’s go”

-Thank you very much. How should I repay this…

“Actually, by coincidence, we were planning to go sightseeing in Venice today. It’s close to the island of Poveglia from there, so this must have been caused by some kind of causal effect.”

-Ah……

In fact, from his point of view, I think Yahweh, but I predict the absolute person of fate. No, you’re going to Venice and there’s a problem nearby? It is rather unconvincing to say that the absolute fate of fate did not use its hands.

Anyway, we made up our mind and decided to board the prepared flight as scheduled. This was a private plane, and it was prepared in advance, so it was easy to get there.

“Dad, what’s going on?”

“Perhaps the problem was caused by the thoughts of the dead people coalescing… Why is there such a thing as an old ghost?”

“It’s not like that”

“There is a possibility that the opponent is a combination of thoughts with different digits. Dad will take care of it as much as possible, but Eden and you don’t know, so be prepared.”

“Okay!!!”

As Ardolphina toured the earth, she wiped out all vengeful spirits and ghosts, so even if we don’t know about the new ones, at least there are no ones older than Eden’s age.

Perhaps what remains there is the place of thoughts of the accumulated ghosts. But a question arises there.

If an accident was going to happen just by thinking, it would have exploded a long time ago. It’s like a shadow, so if it doesn’t come together properly, the effect won’t work properly. At best, it will only give a chilly feeling to people walking nearby.

“Eden, would you like to try a fortune?”

“Okay!!!”

In this case, it is Eden. My dad is an idiot, so if you want to investigate something like this, you have to go and judge yourself, but Eden is smart and can know pretty much anything with access to Gaia Records.

Although it was on the plane, Eden immediately accessed Gaia Records and read related information as if there was no particular problem. Then, questioningly, he tilts his head.

“What?”

“What’s wrong, Eden?”

“No, the information is not detailed. It seems that something has absorbed the thoughts accumulated on that island, but I can’t figure out who that person is.”

“Even the Gaia record is not accurate. It’s an information corridor that only works for beings on this earth.”

The Gaia Records certainly contain all of this Earth’s memories, but there are some blind spots.

It may be omniscient on this earth, but it is powerless otherwise. I, who was reincarnated on this earth through the regular route, may be recorded in the Gaia Records as the worst Korean, but not all information as the worst reincarnated person is recorded.

Same with Zion. Although Zion lives on Earth, there is information about her life on Earth, but no information before that. It is because the past days of Zion, which has lived for thousands of years, have been accumulated outside the earth.

The quick-witted Eden grasped the situation.

“Then the opponent is not from this world?”

“I’ve dealt with Eden a few times, so I know.”

“……They are them.”

Eden growled and frowned.

Although there are times when he resembles me and has a bit of an eccentric personality, he is usually a bright kid, but Eden is the one who openly shows his hostility. It is a demon.

As a result, the existence that caused the death of Mrs. Kim Ryu-hwa, and occupied an island and caused all sorts of terrible horrors. Those evil spirits that are not from this world, but from another world.

If they came over again and this time absorbed the thoughts accumulated on Poveglia Island and increased their strength and size, I can guess what this situation is like.

“I didn’t bring a lot of amulets because I was on a trip… But it’s fortunate that I can summon the Keter horn.”

“It’s okay, Eden, because Dad can take care of it.”

“No. If the opponent is an evil spirit, I have to deal with it. Although they have overlapping old age, they are the ones who eventually made the ghost grandmother die. They exist and only cause bad effects, so I have to purify them all.”

“Hmm”

Eden’s eyes are the eyes of a determined person. Evil spirits from another dimension have built up a bad relationship with Eden, and this time they are also entangled.

Is the absolute of destiny trying to do something to Eden? I’m worried, but on the other hand, I can see that Eden has grown a lot.

“Okay, Daddy will step in if it’s dangerous instead.”

“Okay!”

Eden is more expert than I am when it comes to psychic powers, but spiritual knowledge isn’t what she needs to destroy, kill, and tear her opponent.

After spending several hours arriving in Venice, we were guided by a Vatican priest who arrived after receiving a call. The flight was already prepared for sightseeing on a special plane, so even though it was arranged right away, the ship was not prepared, so a local helper was needed.

Furthermore, if it was not a boat going to a normal island, but a boat going to an uninhabited island, you had to charter a boat to get in. There are small boats, but it will be difficult to get into them.

“Jihee and Eve are resting at the hotel. I’ll finish it soon and come back.”

“It’s a bit strange to see an old man working with a special ability. I’m worried.”

“Your uncle is the strongest on this planet, what are you worried about? I’m waiting in peace.”

“Okay”

We left the kids at the hotel and set off alone. The priests on this side also rushed to find a boat, but they managed to get a boat because they were just like Venice, the city of water.

And depart for Poveglia Island. As I went, the situation of the evil spirits attacking the occupied island reminded me of the past, but the fact that the repertoire was similar was inevitable from their point of view.

If a guy who wants to do something bad even though he has no foundation starts messing around without thinking, of course people will come to stop him. So, he either gathered his strength and prepared to move away from people’s eyes, or he had to possess the person who had that power to build his foundation.

Occupying the island and being possessed by the eldest son of the Geumsan Jo clan are partly because of that.

“Are the priests all right?”

“Didn’t you see that when accessing Gaia Records on the plane?”

“I didn’t see it because I was reluctant to see it”

I was confirmed by Eden instead. The Vatican team had already seen it in a contest for people with special abilities, so it was easy to detect their presence.

And found their presence on the island side. Even though they were weak, they were all gathered together in one place and were alive. No matter what, it seems that life is still attached.

“I’m still alive. That’s all.”

“That’s good”

Before long, the island of Poveglia began to be visible in the distance. It wasn’t that he was manipulating the climate like he was last time, but even though the sun was still up, the gloomy atmosphere was palpable.

When the destination was visible, Eden prepared. He carries the horns of Kether, his own primary weapon, in both his hands.

Awesome!!!

Kiyiing!!!

And spiritual power rushes from each horn. One side made a blade out of the ice I showed you the other day, and the other side, which I had never seen before, had something like a lightsaber or a beam saber making up the blade.

“Eden, what’s that like a lightsaber?”

“I applied the tokamak plasma beam from last time and looked around the blade with plasma.”

“……Wait. Is that okay? Back then, it took a lot of time and effort with just that alone, right?”

“It just takes a lot of effort and time.”

Our Eden seemed to be growing rapidly while his father couldn’t see it. A child’s growth is a good thing, but why is it so scary?

Eden introduced me to the swords as she wielded both of her swords.

“Greetings!!! This is Frostmourne, this is Crucible!!!”

“A sword that commands the undead with one side and rips demons with the other. What a terrible hybrid!!!!”

Evil spirits!!! Eden tears and kills!!!

There must be a lot of fucking big demons, ectoplasm!!!!
