Chapter 1882: Can You Cure the Disease of Poverty?

~6 min read 1,178 words

Although this old man looks aged, in fact, his strength is very great; compared to the strongest few within the Pope, he is not much inferior.

"Poor child, no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can confide in God; our Lord will help you escape the sea of suffering." Otto made the sign of the cross on his chest, then raised his head and looked at Chen Yu.

"My problem is something your Lord cannot solve." Chen Yu shook his head.

"God may not be omnipotent, but our Lord is all-powerful." Otto smiled slightly: "As long as you state your problem, no matter how difficult, the Lord will certainly solve it for you."

"Is that so?" Chen Yu looked at Otto: "I have contracted a disease, and this disease is incurable."

"Pain and illness only torment your physical body; if your spiritual level transcends your physical body, then you will be free from the torment of the disease."

Otto said: "So as long as you pray to the Lord piously, the Lord will certainly help you escape this suffering."

"You didn't even ask what disease I have; how do you know your Lord will help me?" Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"No need to ask, because the Lord is all-powerful; he has already sensed your suffering in the invisible realm." Otto said: "Become a believer of the Lord; he will certainly help you."

"I have the disease of poverty, and most people in this world have this disease; how come I haven't seen your Lord go to help them?" Chen Yu smiled slightly: "The people who come to worship in your church are all from the upper class."

"They donate quite a lot of money to your Pope, don't they? And I asked about the membership requirements for your church; it requires paying an extremely large membership fee. Does your Lord only help the rich?"

"The Lord loves all people; everyone is treated equally before the Lord." Otto smiled slightly: "Besides, you are not the poor person you describe yourself to be. Poor child, what is your true purpose in coming here?"

"I have no purpose; I just want to figure out what kind of place this really is." Chen Yu laughed.

"This place is where we propagate the Lord's teachings; everyone, no matter who, as long as they treat it with sincerity, their Spirit can be sublimated." Otto laughed: "Child, show your sincerity and join us."

"Just give me a little time, and I will make you understand that the Lord is all-powerful."

"Forget it; I don't want to waste my time on these meaningless things." Chen Yu shook his head slightly and said: "And I also feel that people can only rely on themselves."

"If one entrusts their future and faith into the hands of someone who doesn't exist at all and doesn't care whether you live or die, that is the greatest tragedy."

Otto stared at Chen Yu, and a faint white glow emerged from the depths of his pupils: "Child, you came here with another purpose, didn't you?"

"No matter what your purpose is, you must hold a sense of reverence toward the Lord; otherwise, the Lord will bring down punishment upon you."

"Then punish me." Chen Yu laughed: "I also want to see what kind of punishment he can actually give me."

"Oh, heh heh, poor child, you must have been blinded by Satan." Otto chuckled, and he said slowly: "Child, if you leave now, it is still not too late."

"Sorry, I won't leave here easily without achieving my goal." Chen Yu laughed: "I am just that persistent."

"Do you know? Your persistence will harm you." A faint white light welled up from the depths of Otto's eyes: "Leave; this is not a place you should come to."

"My goal has not yet been achieved, so I will not leave here." Chen Yu said stubbornly.

"I truly feel sorrow for you." Otto muttered to himself, and as he stretched out his right hand, a staff appeared in his hand.

He chanted a long string of incantations, and as the incantations were spoken, bang, bang, bang, the wide-open doors and tall floor-to-ceiling windows were instantly locked tight.

Otto slammed the staff in his hand heavily onto the ground, raised his head, and milky white light burst from his eyes.

"Is this where the war begins?" Chen Yu looked at Otto and smiled slightly: "As a senior elder within the Pope, why are you so impatient?"

"By coming here, you have already profaned the Holy Light of the church. I have already given you a chance, but unfortunately, you did not grasp this opportunity well, so I can only destroy you on behalf of the Lord." Otto said slowly.

"Hmm, this place is probably not as holy as you say, is it?" Chen Yu looked around and said: "Why do I smell a scent of Dark Power here?"

"Could this place be an entrance for some Dark Creatures to invade this plane?"

Otto's complexion changed abruptly, and he muttered: "This is the Lord's place; any Dark Creature will be exposed under the glory. Do not talk nonsense."

"Is that so? There is a rich man who is extremely afraid of death." Chen Yu said leisurely: "Everywhere he goes, he respects the local faith."

"He comes to this church every week, but unfortunately, because his constitution is too weak, he has been inhabited by some Dark Creatures, and these Dark Creatures are pioneers from the Dark Abyss."

Chen Yu stared at Otto: "The matter is already so obvious; it is meaningless for you to deny it, isn't it?"

Otto's expression sank slightly, and he said coldly: "Who exactly are you?"

"Someone who likes to meddle in other people's business. What exactly is your Pope doing? Are you trying to obtain Dark Power to strengthen your own affairs? If so, that is very ironic; everyone else in this world is called a heretic by you."

Chen Yu laughed: "And you claim to be messengers of light, the drivers who dispel the darkness, but you do such dirty deeds in secret. How do you expect me to put it? Don't you feel this is a very ironic thing?"

"Kid, it is not your place to point fingers at the affairs of our Pope. Isn't your purpose in coming here today just to figure out what we are doing?" Otto's pupils gradually turned gray, then from gray to black.

This was a sign of turning into a Demon; a dignified Pope priest preaching in the most prosperous church in Yizhou, yet who would have thought that this guy could switch to a Demon mode in an instant? This is also a kind of irony for the Pope.

After all, that group of people is high and mighty; they look down on any heretic, and they feel that their doctrine is the center of the world.

They view themselves as orthodox and view darkness as a disgrace, but their own people are now pouring into the darkness one by one.
