Please Stop The Pope-Chapter 61

"Don't be vigilant. I happen to have to go to the airport, so I want you to think of it as a kind of carpool."

"Did you hear I was going to the airport?"

"It's part of the president's job to be briefed on the schedule. I apologize if I offended you."

"Oh, it's not unpleasant...... Just."

It's because it feels weird that my every move is reported to the president or something.

By the way, he is a very different person from the image I had in mind.

A sense of authority and charisma that a president would have. I don't really feel like this.

There are usually two types of cases.

Either they really don't have it, or they're hiding it on purpose.

Well, either way, the conclusion is the same.

'Someone to watch out for.'

It means that you are a person who cannot look inside. The position of president was not a position that was won by lot, so perhaps it was natural.

"Awakener Kim Si Woo has done so much for the Republic of Korea, so what can't I do for you? Just say the word. I'll do whatever I can."

The president's words are met with an untimely mischievous sense of mischief.

I said with a serious expression.

"Why don't you make the Remen Church the state religion?"

"Haha, I can already hear the impeachment indictment in my ears. If Kim Si Woo Awakener wants it so much, there is nothing wrong with it. I'm going to ask the chief of staff to get the defection letter first. It's going to be the most dramatic moment of my political life."

"Just kidding, Mr. President. I was half-hearted."

"Neither do I. I was half-hearted."

What was the real thing?

I think I heard about the president from Inwook once.

I've heard that thanks to his humorous side, he has a high approval rating even among young people. Of course, being funny won't win you approval ratings, but a good sense of humor is one of the strengths of a leader.

In my view, the president certainly excelled in that regard.

I felt more comfortable just by exchanging words a few times.

I smiled softly, and he laughed along with me and started talking.

"Normally, the work of the head of a group is mostly done in an informal place like this. Formal events are nothing more than gastronomy. Siu was also in the position of Pope in the world of Eden, so I think you know about it."

I never thought that the president would have come here to joke with me in the morning.

This was the point.

"Have you seen the news that the media reported this morning?"

"I know that a demon beast has appeared in Japan and has asked for help."

"Good. Since you know the rough idea, I'll be blunt. The U.S. side has asked us to include Kim Si Woo Awakener in the delegation. And our government has withheld its response."

"Hmmm. If the government issues a mobilization order, I will have no choice but to comply."

I saw it when I was writing the Regular Contract, and I was called it that way during Monster Wave last time.

But President Suh shook his head.

"According to Article 9, Paragraph 12 of the Special Law on Mobilization, the area in which irregulars can be mobilized is limited to the area within the scope of the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea. In other words, Kim Si Woo is not obligated to help Japan."

The fact that the president is here knowing the provisions of such a law means one thing.

I looked at President Suh and said,

"I think the president wants me to go to Japan."

"Aiden Howard, the regular who was sent to Japan from the United States this time, is a human being who is also called an irregular reader. That being said, if you beat him, you can become a world-recognized regular."

President Xu's eyes shone for the first time.

"Yamatano's number of demons was not in the calculation from the beginning."

"There is no way that the so-called nuclear weapons of the Age of the Awoken will fail in an operation involving two irregulars. The Japanese side will also do its best, and so will the United States. So you can't help but think about what happens after that."

Before you know it, the car is passing by the Yeongjong Bridge.

A view of the blue sea outside. Against that backdrop, the president continued.

"If there is a friendly sparring match, I hope that the Awakened Kim Si Woo will give me a barbarian."

“…… Ajak, Iyo."

"Cat smash is good, muk bowl is good. If Kim Si Woo Awakens the Barbarian, the Republic of Korea will become a world-recognized irregular. If that's the case, it's either a swarm or a dwarf...... Oh, excuse me."

President Xu, who spat out his speech, smiled broadly and nodded.

It was a bit complicated, but the bottom line was to smash the American irregular, the Barbarian.

"Do you want me to do that for the sake of the Republic of Korea?"

I asked in a low voice, and President Xu replied firmly.

"Not for the Republic of Korea, but for us. Religion and politics have been inseparable for a very long time. I think it was because the power of both came from the people."

"It sounds like you're talking about building a bonding relationship."

"Haha, I suppose so. But I hope you don't misunderstand me. What I want is a win-win. To live together, together, and build on that relationship to go further."

Are all presidents so eloquent, or is this man uniquely eloquent?

It's a very different feeling from the kings and emperors I encountered in Eden.

His words contained a philosophy that he had followed all his life.

"Sadly, the government of the Republic of Korea does not have the power to do so. In comparison, the Remen Church will continue to flourish. If that gap widens, it's no longer a win-win, it's just a parasite."

President Xu looked at me intently. He said with a very serious expression.

"And I think that's something that Kim Si Woo Awakener doesn't want either. Because that's no longer ........"

"It's not going to be a denomination."

If the status of the denomination were to rise above that of the government, it would be more like a state power than a denomination. And it was also the last thing Limen wanted.

I nodded slowly at President Xu's words.

"Do you want to raise the international status of the Republic of Korea for the sake of win-win growth?"

"I'm a pretty good resourceful guy. And the title of Irregular-Reserve is priceless. It's going to be useful in a lot of different places."

Before I knew it, the car arrived at the airport, and President Xu smiled as he looked outside.

"It looks like you told a boring and uninteresting story on such a fine day. It's okay to take your decision slowly. And whatever that decision is, we will abide entirely by the decision of the Awakener Kim Si Woo."

Until the last moment, President Suh did not actively try to persuade me. He simply showed me his calculations and made suggestions to me based on them.

"I'm going to make an official visit to the Temple of the Limen Church soon."

"You're always welcome."

"It was nice to meet you. Si Woo Kim Awakener. We'll talk about it next time."

So I got out of the car, and as soon as I got out, the president's car left immediately.

First impressions are important.

President Seo Shin-woo.

"He's funny."

I thought that if I got involved with him, a lot of interesting things would happen.

I smiled as I watched the car drive away, then headed straight for the arrivals hall.

The weather was cloudless, as he said, and the weather was great.

It was a perfect day for someone to return home.

2.

Here's my grandmother's profile:

[Name: Ko Eun-young

Born: November 11, 1963 (age 73)

Birthplace: Yongsan, Seoul

A common saying: 'My family has a history of accidents. That's why you must be good at contraception. Okay?']

As you can see from what he often says, he is quite a peculiar person. The fact that she traveled to the United States despite the upside down gives us a glimpse of her outlook on life.

Anyway, let's live in a world where we live once, let's live while having fun.

It's also something my grandmother always kept on her lips. When I was young, he raised my father, and when he was young, he raised me, who was born by an early accident, and I think he lived a hectic life.

He has been traveling abroad since my grandfather passed away, and as soon as he heard the news of my parents' obituary, he came back and raised us all the time.

Anyway.

I put on my mask and waited quietly at the arrival hall.

Compared to the past, there were fewer passengers using the airport, perhaps because some air routes had been discontinued.

It is said that there are quite a lot of skies that have been stolen by flying monsters.

It was worse in the beginning, but thanks to the efforts of each country to exterminate it, many of the problems were solved.

Of course, some areas are still unavailable.

How long had he waited? The door to the arrivals hall opened, and soon an elderly woman in black sunglasses and a beige trench coat stepped out.

A confident and energetic step.

Of course, that old lady who feels powerful just by looking at her.

"Grandma."

It was my grandmother.

His hair was dark because he had dyed his hair relatively recently.

As soon as she heard my voice, she came over to me. As soon as he arrived in front of me, he took off his sunglasses.

Soon, the eyes of the old lady who had been hiding behind her sunglasses were revealed.

And I looked at her and said,

"Grandma. Isn't it normal to share emotion in moments like this?"

"Our grandchildren. You said you went to another world, and your liver is very swollen. In the past, I was busy running away when Halmi looked at me like this, but this Halmi is very proud. Our grandchildren are all grown up, they're all grown up."

"That...... Why don't we put our hands away first?"

"Let's share the emotion."

As she said that, she slapped me on the back with her right hand.

Chaaaaa

At the same time, the sound of a striking reverberation.

The tingling sensation spread from my back in an instant, a spiciness I had never tasted in Eden.

That's why it's called the original gourmet restaurant, the original gourmet restaurant.

I'm much more disciplined and better than I used to be, but I don't know why it hurts so much.

"I'm back in good shape, so that's it. Ungrateful grandchild."

"It's still the same, Grandma."

"When people change, they die. She intends to live a long time, so don't worry about that."

"He's still a good talker."

The reunion with her grandmother was quite different from the reunion with In Wook or Si Yeon.

In Wook and Siyeon looked at me as if I had really been dead, but my grandmother's expression was not like that at all.

It's as if you're greeting someone who has just returned from a long journey.

Is that so?

I felt really relaxed.

"yes, otherworldly travel whatsoever."

"What am I...... It was good."

"Traveling to new places makes you grow. Still, it feels good to see that our grandchildren have grown up. I've just paid for five years of my heart."

With that, Grandma let go of the handle of the suitcase. He hugged me gently.

"Thanks for coming back, my pooch."

I smiled and hugged her.

"When you heard that I was back, you didn't come back, so I thought you didn't want to see my face."

"It's a package trip, isn't it a waste? It's just that he's coming back, and that's what."

"Was the charter flight comfortable?"

"It's the first time I've ever had a good time with my grandchildren, man."

"That's good."

She chuckled, and I giggled along with her.

"I made a new friend from the United States. No, well, as soon as I got in, men in suits came and took me away."

"Friend?"

"My friend really wanted to see you. Don't worry, he's not a bad old man."

At that moment, I remembered what I had heard from President Suh earlier.

-I also have to go to the airport, so I want you to think of it as a kind of carpool.

He is the kind of person who would be personally picked up at the airport in South Korea by people in black suits (probably presidential bodyguards.......

“…… Grandma."

"Why is it Inseok?"

"Who the hell did you bring in?"

I don't think it's going to end this day easily.

Please stop our Pope
