In the end, I moved to the confessional room, out of sight of others, and the Medici and I had a conversation over a wooden wall that had already been worn away.
There would have been no other way for him.
The hand that had been prepared to pressure me was completely useless thanks to my tactic called ‘Vatican’.
“It’s the first time we meet before attacking Mount Etna, but from the start, you’re rolling your hair too much. Don Medici.”
“… … There must be some misunderstanding. Those kids are just kids who came to protect me. So don’t worry too much, you didn’t involve the Vatican in this secret affair either. I really need to hear an explanation for this.”
Ah, I will turn the arrow towards me. is this
Well, it wasn’t unexpected. Maybe even my opponent would have tried to stumble with this.
but.
“Isn’t that obvious? That’s why I brought it with difficulty.”
“… … what?”
It would have been okay if the explanation that I intended it in the first place and the reason were sufficient.
“Since you’ve been researching Mount Etna for a long time, don’t you know better than I do? It means that what is there is not an ordinary monster, but a prestige god.”
Through the gap, I could see the pupils quivering after hearing my words.
It was nice to keep a poker face so as not to give out information in the meantime, but… … The opponent was not good.
‘Etna Volcano’ is a dungeon that has been attacked many times in the game.
That’s why I was able to judge that it was absolutely impossible to attack with this combination.
Why haven’t they been able to attack them all this time?
“What does that prestige have to do with the Vatican?”
“Don’t you know that Catholic Awakened people have a basic ability called ‘idolatry’?”
‘Idolatry’.
It is a basic ability that Catholic Awakeners have, and it was an ability that allowed them to gain additional effects and damage increase options against gods and followers of other religions other than their own religion.
If you think about the history of religion, it’s a characteristic that fits so well.
And this ability was also an ability with a large variation among individuals, and among them, the seat that was allowed only to those who showed the greatest effect was the ‘Heretic Questioner’.
It was one of the positions Michaela held in the past.
I mean.
“My escort from the Vatican was a former ‘Heretic Inquisitor’. Even the knight commander now. Can you imagine how much power will rise just by his participation in the war?”
I explained it quite coherently. Even though I thought about it, he frowned as if he didn’t like it.
“Hmm… … .”
“But do you think they would stay silent if our operation even got into the Vatican?”
“There is no law that says you have to move.”
“… … what?”
This is why rumors circulate that the mainland Italian mafia run away in a hurry whenever the Vatican appears.
I don’t even think about touching the Vatican, but I’m scared.
“Etna Volcano is classified as a ‘dungeon’ under international law. However, like Dante’s Inferno, it was neglected because it was judged to be too difficult or difficult to capture.”
And we take advantage of this.
“Don Medici. How many guilds do Don Medici run? Just move a few of them, create a raid team, and officially challenge Etna Volcano. Then even the Vatican would not be able to intervene.”
Even the Vatican couldn’t infringe on the rights of guilds, so it was a perfect plan.
“… … If that happens, eventually the whole world will know that they participated in the capture of Mount Etna.”
“What are we doing? There will be subjugation rights, I will pay taxes, don’t you just show your face confidently and participate? Or are you afraid of those guys who are taking advantage of the opportunity to do their part?”
Judging by the expression on the boy’s face, he seemed to understand.
this guy Rather than sharing the reward from the beginning, the Medici family must have tried to swallow it whole.
That’s why I had to bring this work to the surface even more. That way my safety will be guaranteed.
“Then how are you going to participate? If the heir to the Carlione family rises to the surface, you’ll be in trouble too.”
“If that’s the case, you don’t have to worry.”
I already had a couple of disguised identities.
“Now, only Don Medici’s choice remains. Now, what would you like to do?”
──The choice is up to you.
* * *
-That’s why we! It means that you should always be careful, be careful, and try harder and harder not to commit sins!
“… … sister. What are you doing?”
When I came out of the confessional room, I saw Michaela standing on the podium and giving a speech eagerly.
And under Michaela, Don Medici’s men who are holding their hands together and shouting ‘Amen’.
“ah. Carlione Jr. Did the story end well?”
“yes. Well, for now. But this… … .”
“Ah, I was giving a short lecture because the people here seemed to be believers. No matter how different we stand, in the end, in the eyes of the Lord, it will look like we are all standing in the same place.”
The guy who talks about how hard he’s been giving lectures while wiping the sweat from his forehead.
For some reason, those eyes that had always been expressionless were shining brighter than ever.
“… … ah. yes. go slowly There are things we need to talk to each other.”
“yes!”
I knew that Catholic heroes’ stats would increase after mass, but… … Actually, it becomes a buff like this.
It was a day of new knowledge.
After the meeting with the Medici family, I returned to the hotel and explained to Michaela what had happened inside.
“… … therefore. now. Do you mean that you plan to attack Mount Etna?”
“yes.”
“The Mafia. With the Medici family?”
“yes.”
“Why?”
“For the helpless old man and the child who will be the hope of the future?”
By the way, I didn’t lie.
Aren’t I the hope of the future?
“Anyway, it feels like the scale has become incredibly huge… … .”
Saying that, she stretched out her hand toward her soft inner pocket.
“… … Will you write the lyrics for the hymn?”
“yes? Ah yes. Suddenly, a bad image came to mind.”
this person. Acting is really bad.
“But wouldn’t it be dangerous?”
“yes?”
“Etna Volcano is a dungeon that even the elites of the Vatican have failed to clear. But attacking with the mafia and not with other people? I honestly don’t think it’s possible.”
Her judgment was correct.
Etna Volcano is an impregnable dungeon where even the elite of the ‘Vatican’ have failed many times.
It was natural for him to be concerned because he said he was going to such a place with the mafia, not other heroes.
but.
“You know what? sister?”
“… … ?”
“That Augustus, the head of Jeju Diocese, said so when I wanted to catch Fafnir.”
“ah.”
Isn’t that a party where I’m not included?
After hearing my story, her eyes twinkled for a moment, then she shook her head again.
“But it is different now. I know from the report, but wasn’t there a holy relic that was specialized for dealing with Fafnir?”
As expected, it seemed that I was still in a position to be extremely opposed to being involved in other cases. I know the role of this side well.
If it comes out like this, I have no choice but to use the second stage operation.
“It’s disappointing. sister.”
“… … yes?”
She looked at me as if asking what I was saying at my sudden remark.
“Did I tell you not to report to the Vatican? Or did you say blasphemy?”
flinch!
She trembles like a ‘person with a great secret’ at the moment.
It’s not that difficult to attack these characters.
──You have to protect me anyway, so you use a group saying that you are going unconditionally.
“Are you ignoring the countless lambs that have been affected by the volcanic eruption of Mount Etna?”
──Attack the other person’s sense of values.
“Because the Vatican gave up its attack, people living near the volcano are still having a hard time.”
The place we want to go to is ‘Etna Volcano’, a place called a powder keg, an active volcano that may explode at any time.
It is a disaster that reduced the population of Sicily by its existence alone. And I appeal to my opinion to go there.
“For others. for our neighbors. Only when you do what everyone says no to is difficult, can’t you show yourself as a pilgrim walking the path of suffering that the Lord said?”
Wrapped up as a sacrifice for others, not me.
“The path of suffering. pilgrim… … .”
“That’s right. Can we call pilgrims those who only pursue the easy path? If you were a sister, you would have grown up watching it all the time, right? Those who sacrifice themselves for others, consume and help.”
What I was about to do now, I make her vision.
In response, she puts her hands together and closes her eyes.
“… … Even if I go through the valley of darkness, I have no fear because you are with me. Your rod and staff are a comfort to me.”
“Yes, like when I went to catch Fafnir. Just like how I felt.”
Saying that, take a moment to observe Michaela’s reaction.
“As expected, Carlione Jr. has completely different thoughts than a criminal like me.”
Slowly raising her head, she approached me and raised her head while holding my hands.
“I seem to have forgotten for a while. My determination in the past, when I was determined to dedicate this body to God.”
Ahh… … .
“Carlione Jr. Will you please give me the opportunity to participate in this holy temple?”
this.
It must have been completely on fire.

[☞Subject: Today’s report☜]
[※Content※: A report was written in a new way at the request of Brother Francesco.
Today Junior is a huge Sicilian mafia force. A tangent with the Medici family.
Judging by the friendly introduction and entering the confessional room, it is predicted that they seem to be getting along pretty well.
In the process, he gave a small lecture on 8 members of the Medici family.
Accordingly, they demanded the accumulation of 8 talents that can be used in the Vatican market.

Afterwards, Junior decided to attack ‘Etna Volcano’, which had terrified the people of the Vatican Empire, with the Medici family.
The purpose of the attack seems to be a noble will to save the citizens of the Italian Peninsula and restore the former Italian territory.
Therefore, we want to request a deliberation for the award of the Order of the Vatican regarding the actions of Eugene Han Carlione.
The capture date for ‘Etna Volcano’ is three days from today.
Please, pray for us.
more. finished watching.
[P.S. Today, I almost got caught writing a report, but in an amazing way.
Instead, he began to compose new hymns. I would like you to send me your evaluation of the work as a reply.
Personally, I am confident that the result is satisfactory :)]
