The next day’s exhibition was almost the same as the last one.

 

In other words, there was nothing worth mentioning. 

That’s all.

 

And while we were on our way to the third apostle’s base, I asked the teacher about something that had been bothering me.

 

“Teacher, is it possible that this is the pattern we’ve been following all along?”

 

“What pattern?”

 

“In the past, the machines were working. The apostles are amazing. Their descendants are stupid for not following their teachings.”

 

The teacher’s face became deeply puzzled.

 

“Don’t just sum up a pilgrimage that moves so many people in just three lines ……

 

“Ahh, I’d like to hear that, too. I was just thinking, it’s weird.”

 

The teacher gave the mourning woman Silvana a dirty old man’s grin.

 

“Your clothes?”

 

“No! Before I started my pilgrimage …… I was so excited to get to know the history of the apostles and I feel like I can get closer to them.”

 

That’s usually the case.

I nodded my head in agreement.

 

“I guess we all are.”

 

Silvana, the mourning woman, folded her arms.

 

‘It’s like …… now, like how Al said. Is it going to be like this all over again? That’s what I thought. I don’t know where I changed my mind, though.”

 

The teacher turned away.

 

“Well, just think of it as a formality…”

 

“I mean, it’s the same. I feel like I’m being shown a lazy, overused play.”

 

The teacher’s expression was blatantly disgusted.

 

“I’ve chaperoned a few pilgrimages in my time. You’re the first people I’ve ever seen react that way, you know?”

 

The mourning woman Silvana, who had been making a difficult face, looked as if she had realized something.

 

“So you’re saying that …… I’ve been contaminated by Al’s cold, emotionless pilgrimage?”

 

“I’m not cold, and I’m not emotionless.”

 

They gave me a blank stare.

 

” “No, you are.” “


 

 

Oh, no, I’ll be the culprit if it keeps going like this.

 

“I’d like to declare my objection.”

 

“Overruled.”

 

That’s so sad.

 

“Ms. Silvana. It’s not good to blame others. If you’re being influenced by outside forces on your own, that was the extent of your interest.”

 

“Mugu …… no, I don’t think so …….”

 

I can’t let myself be made the culprit here. 

It’s too dangerous to show weakness to these two people.

It is a tragic fate to be used as a snack.

 

It’s only been two months since I started my pilgrimage, and what if they keep using me as a story for the next four months? Don’t kid with me.

 

“You’re on pilgrimage to get acquainted with the apostles, aren’t you? That would be your ultimate goal.”

 

“That’s …… true.”

 

“The purpose of this pilgrimage is to trace the Apostles’ accomplishments and increase their respect. In other words, the purpose was different from the beginning.”

 

I don’t have any respect for them, though.


 

The mourning woman Silvana, flinched blatantly.

 

“Geho.”

 

I have to avoid the word “cause” and go after her.

 

We have to be on the offensive here.

If there was a real lawyer, they would have kicked me out, but she an amateur.

I should be able to do it.

I stick my finger in her face like a lawyer in a video game.

 

“So, in the end, it’s a matter of your heart, Ms. Silvana! Repent!”

 

The mourning woman, Silvana, couldn’t help but give the teacher a look as if to ask for help.

 

“Hey, virgin! Do something about it!”

 

The teacher wisely avoided a fight.

He dropped his shoulders and gave a small shake of his head.

 

“I’m sorry, but I’ve never been able to win an argument against the kiddo in my life …… This guy is so scary that he attacks people’s weaknesses with precision and logic ……”

 

“You heartless man!”

 

I managed to defend it.

 

At any rate, I’ve never had this perspective, though.

After all, another person’s point of view gives vitality to our thoughts.

I wonder if apostles are capable of influencing people’s minds.

 

I’ve been feeling a little stuck, I guess I should take a leap of faith for a change ……

I’m so focused on the theory that I’m at a standstill, after all.

I think I’m too biased towards theories to begin with.

It’s a bad habit of mine.

 

Let’s go back to the root.

God may not be able to interfere physically, but he can interfere with the mind and soul.

If you get power from it, it can influence your mind.

And unconsciously too.

 

If I’m right, this is a very troubling story.

But if the people around him are ruined after his death, then there must be some kind of influence.

If you don’t have the know-how to operate something like a railroad, you can’t operate it.

But during the apostle’s lifetime, it is possible to do so.

When the apostles are gone, there will be no way to fool them.

 

Can we use the knowledge that was passed down to us while the apostle’s power is still intact?

Operational know-how is a kind of thing that is different from strength or magic.

I wish I knew the details of how it resulted in failure.

 

I’d still like to have a field witness ……
