Chapter 1652 – [(Relatively) Daily Life]
The eating-a-lot competition between Eden and Berthatus was unexpectedly close.
There was bound to be a difference in the amount of food that a giant creature that was seemingly tens of meters tall and a human that was less than two meters tall could eat, but it was difficult to say who was superior in terms of the amount eaten.
If it were a quick eating contest, Bertus had the upper hand. If you roast a whole cow and chew it a few times, it’s done.
However, since this was about eating a lot, not quickly, the person who ate less lost. The one who eats consistently, even if a little slowly, is the winner.
-No, is it true that you eat a whole roasted nuna with the bones?
-How on earth do you eat it lol.
-If you eat bones, are they digested? Are you eating it like you’re eating some kind of snack?
It might not have been possible in the past, but now Eden can even eat bones. It’s not something else, it’s the power you gained from over there, so is it the power of gastronomy? Anyway, thanks to that, I was able to eat things that were otherwise inedible.
In fact, you could eat bones before, but that only meant you could convert them into abilities and absorb them, which didn’t mean you could actually eat them.
In short, before I gained my powers, I was almost forced to eat it, but now I eat it because it tastes good. No matter what the difference is, it is a big enough difference for our Eden.
For Eden, who converts what she eats into ether, eating deliciously is important. When you eat delicious food, your will rise, and you will be able to eat more. Plus, you can enjoy eating even the bones… I’ve said it all.
“How much do you eat?”
“I’m slowly reaching my limit. I eat a lot, but even so, I can’t eat more than 10 cows in one meal…”
Since Bertathus was such a large man, the amount of food he ate was extraordinary. But that didn’t mean he just ate dozens of cows.
In the end, stomach has its limits, so it is Eden that wins. It may have taken some time because it was a contest of eating a lot, not fast, but Eden won by eating more than 15 whole roasted cows.
“It was delicious!!!!!!!”
-No, what kind of mukbang eats 15 cows?
-To be honest, I’m a bit scared when I see people eating nuna…
-I’m sure my body needs a lot, but it’s no joke because I eat tens or hundreds of times more than I thought.
“What’s wrong with what I eat!!!! Is it a sin to eat a lot of delicious food?”
-It seems like a sin for cows.
-Do you know how many cows you have eaten so far!!!
-Ummmm.
“Anyway, I won!!!!! Haha!!! Have you guys come to your senses?!”
First, even though Eden ate a lot, there was a difference in his appearance, so more people bet on Bertathus. Who would have thought that Eden would eat more than a dozen of meters tall dragon?
Still, the broadcast itself was well received. There were two special guests, but if it wasn’t well-received, it was rather strange.
“Still, it was delicious. Did Mary and Berthatus eat well too?”
“It was delicious, probably because I like meat. I enjoyed it.”
“Well, the meat itself was definitely different. It was tastier than what I had in Australia.”
“I’m glad it hit me in the mouth.”
Time to quickly wrap up the broadcast. However, perhaps because of the lack of interest, some viewers asked about the resurrection.
Rather, I think it has been well suppressed so far by the popularity of Mary and Berthatus. It was difficult to avoid answering questions that came with donations as they were voiced.
[Walnut Like donated 50,000 won!!! Nunna, they say Nunna resurrected a dead person. Is that true?]
“Oh…”
Perhaps because the question came up at the last minute, Eden was taken aback for a moment, but since it was something she expected, she dealt with it relatively naturally.
“There was a story like that. So what do you guys think?”
-No, Nunna. Why don’t you give me a definite answer?
-I think this has happened before…
-Wasn’t it is like this when the story about Wakamo Shrine came out before coming out?
“Oh, the second time doesn’t work!!!!!”
-Is it really true?
-You can really bring a dead person back to life?!
“Well, what will it be like? Anyway, it’s time to wrap up the broadcast, so let’s show the service and end it!!!”
Normally, the story would end at the point where the person himself said the service that someone would provide. The good news is that people are so focused on that they don’t ask much about it.
Today’s guest is Mary, so I’m joining Mary as well. Berthatus is a dragon, so I have nothing to show… No, I guess I’m also used to showing services now.
“Mary Sister!!! What is the charm point that you will show your father?”
“Well? My breasts aren’t that big, and my legs overlap with other people’s… Um, abs?”
“Wow, how confident are you?”
“No, Mary, you’re a wizard, but what kind of abs do you have?”
“It’s not like you just lock yourself in a lab and do research. And among wizards these days, there aren’t many people who only dig magic and run around.”
Gray, the absolute master of the lower knight’s judgment, is also a magician by nature, but his close combat skills are stronger than you can imagine. He just needs to put in a little effort, but no one will ignore his weaknesses… Ah, Lucian, that bastard is just nature.
Anyway, Mary slightly lifts her top to show her stomach. Considering her profession as a wizard, she looked like she would be quite poor, but her abs, which were split into 11 shapes, seemed to be full of health rather than bulky.
As if she couldn’t lose, Eden rolled up her top slightly to show off her stomach, but instead of having abs, there was only a pretty belly that seemed to be soft.
“I don’t have abs or anything!!!!!”
“It’s because Eden thought that of you.”
-Huhhhhh!!!!!
-Nunnadeul… I, Juji, are strange…
-Everyone, take your hands off the keyboard!!!!
-There is an evil deity in front of this.
“Anyway, that’s all for today’s broadcast!!!! See you all next time!!!!”
That’s how the broadcast ended. However, since she could not completely hide the resurrection, it became a hot topic again after the broadcast ended.
-So you can save the dead?
-Mol? Ru.
-But seeing as you spoke so vaguely even before coming out, it seems possible.
-Hey hahadoes resurrection look funny haha.
-Honestly, before we came out, we never even dreamed that Nunna was a Wakamo shaman.
-ㄹㅇ, Wakamo’s shrine maiden personality is that if it were not true, she would definitely say it was not true, but I don’t think there would be any reason to be vague and cause trouble.
-Uh? Is this by any chance?
-Magic card activated!!!! The resurrection of the dead!!!!
-The souls of the dead must not stay in this world!!!!
-But honestly, I wish I could. I miss my mom who passed away last year…
Rather, it seems that Eden was more confident in his ambiguous response. She said she could really do it, but she didn’t lie because she thought she would get caught later… So people’s reaction was more inclined towards saying she could do it.
Then people started to gather in front of our house. There were reporters who gathered there after smelling a scoop, but there were also people who gathered to ask for their dead family members to be brought back to life.
However, the difference from before is that it is not as noisy. It’s been almost a year since I came out, and I’m protesting quietly because I know that if I make a fuss and cause trouble in front of my house, I’ll at least make an asshole.
“Why is there a candlelight protest in front of my house, not even Gwanghwamun Square?”
“If I leave it alone, it will become a nuisance… So I write.”
“There is a lot of talk even in the religious world.”
Resurrection or resuscitation is one of the greatest miracles in any religion. It is called a miracle because it has the basic thesis that dead people do not come back to life.
But if you can do that, of course there will be a lot of noise in the religious world. The good news is that the influence of existing religions on Earth has decreased, so there is less backlash.
There are gods such as God of Pop, God-Ruri-Ruri, Susanoo-san, etc. If you believe in them, you can see direct effects and even give miracles, so there is no need to believe in existing religions that only give you mental peace. No matter how religious you are, as long as you are a human being and believe in a religion, it is natural to consider the gain and loss.
Anyway, I couldn’t leave it alone because there would be a candlelight protest in front of my house all day long. At the very least, if they make a fuss like before, there is a reason to tear them up and kick them out, but since that is not possible, we have to deal with them in another way.
“Should we make a separate official announcement?”
“I think that would be best.”
“It’s going to be noisy for a while…”
“When summer vacation comes, let’s go on a dimensional trip and have a quiet time.”
“Okay, let’s do it.”
It was decided to create a separate position through the Cheonmu Association. However, due to the large number of expected visitors, the space originally used by the Cheonmu Association for the press conference was so cramped that a separate conference room had to be set up.
Not only reporters but also heavyweights from the business and political worlds attend, as well as those from the medical and religious communities.
It wasn’t like this even when I came out, and I think it’s excessive, but it’s understandable as a mortal human being’s reaction to the miracle of a dead person coming back to life. There will be various problems that will arise there, and conversely, there may also be businesses related to them.
Eden prepared to attend the conference wearing a neat women’s suit. I’m going with you, but I’m just a bodyguard, so I’m not the star of the day.
“Dad, I have to wear a mask.”
“I came out, but do I really need to use that? My face is already known anyway.”
“I am here as an evil emperor, which means I will rip you to pieces if you make a mistake.”
“Oh, I see.”
Perhaps because my appearance is ordinary, there are surprisingly few people who recognize me, so the person wearing the Raccoon Man mask stands out more and is recognized more easily. And although it’s only been almost a year since I came out, the period of wearing a mask and working as an undercover agent has been much longer.
As the matter is a serious matter, you don’t know what might happen, so it was better to go in a way that would provide warning if possible. Then there won’t be people who cross the line for no reason.
Do you think I will restrain myself in front of the camera? I’ll split the heads off those who behave rudely.
Anyway, those of us who went out to the conference hall could see countless people gathered. At the very least, if it is only domestic personnel, it is possible to cover the meeting room at the Chunmu Association, but more than that, there are people from overseas, so the place is full.
The human desire for longevity is really… It’s hard for me to understand because there are parts of me that live because I can’t die.
“It’s time to get started. Let’s go, Dad.”
“I left out nothing, right?”
“I don’t really need to prepare anything. All I had to do was speak well.”
Eventually, Eden went up to the stage where many people looked at him in anticipation. I wait quietly behind the podium.
Some people whisper when they see me wearing a mask, but I don’t pay any attention to them. However, I look around at other people and understand the reactions of people looking at Eden.
There were faces of disbelief, faces of half-confidence, faces full of excitement, but there were also a few of them, but there were also young faces of enemies.
I wonder why the enemy was like that, but Eden wasn’t heading towards itself. It seemed like it was probably because of the damage that would result from being able to be resurrected. If not, I would have kept an eye on it and secretly tore it.
“I would like to thank everyone who gathered here today despite their busy schedule. The reason you gathered today is probably because they came to check the truth about whether I can bring back the dead through rumors floating around in the city. Let me tell you about that issue…”
Soon Eden paused for a moment and then spoke in a firm voice.
“Yes, there are various conditions, but it is possible to revive the dead.”
There is a commotion in the conference room, not just a buzz. As there are so many people gathered, even if they say a word, it becomes so noisy that the conference hall starts to ring.
And impatient reporters ask loud questions even though it is not yet question time.
“What are the conditions!!!!!”
“What mechanism does the resuscitation ability have? Please tell me, !!!!”
“Can other people with supernormal abilities follow suit? If that happens, humanity will be able to overcome death!!!!”
Does someone else have the same ability to use the resuscitation technique that Eden uses? I’ll never be able to do it.
It would only be possible if Earth’s technological capabilities were hundreds of years older than they are now, or if someone with the same level of talent came out, but honestly, we have to wait and the talent issue is close to impossible.
At best, there are several people with some degree of talent who learn each field separately, and even so, the minimum hurdles are so high that no existing person with special abilities can match them. Eden says it hasn’t been long since he became a transcendent, but he’s still a transcendent, so does that make him look like a brat?
Anyway, after the confirmation was given and the commotion broke out, it took time for it to subside. Eden waited a little while for people to calm down and then spoke again.
“Detailed conditions will be revealed separately on the Cheonmu Association page, but to name a few, strict conditions are required, such as vital organs, such as the head and chest of the corpse, or the soul of the dead person must remain. Because it is precision work, You also need a stable place and time.”
“Still, the dead come back to life…”
“Wait a minute, but the soul has to remain. How do you do that?”
“It varies from person to person. If you had strong regrets during your lifetime, you may remain, but if not, or if your spiritual qualities are poor, your soul will immediately attain Buddhahood and you will become a vegetable with no chance of awakening even if you survive.”
“Then wouldn’t it be possible to wait just before death and then capture the soul and revive it when it dies!!!”
“Unless the cause of death is old age. And if the cause of death is such that I can wait by the side, it would be at the level of a soldier in addition to old age. In that case, it would be better for me to just treat it rather than resuscitate it.”
“Hmm…”
It may not seem like a big deal, but the conditions are more stringent than you might think. If you add Eden’s personal conditions to it, it becomes even more so.
Now that we’ve talked to some extent, it’s time to take questions about the rest.
“I think I’ve said everything I wanted to say, but do you have any questions?”
And most people in the venue raised their hands. Not only on the reporter side, but also on the VIP side.
I can’t answer everything, and I don’t intend to, but I think I’ll be bombarded with questions for a while.
