The Book I Wrote Became the Bible - Chapter 45
45 – Healing Many People (2)
From noble mtl dot com
Luke brought salvation to the whole city and all the sick were healed. Teacher, who are you? The Lord said, “I am the only begotten Son of Deus, who came to this world to save you.”
New Testament Gospel of Aurelia 9:5-7
In this situation, the numbers I can use are very diverse. If I had to pick out four of them as realistic options….
First. Simon kills all humans except Iaco.
Ignis displays overwhelming strength if it is not for the fight against ‘Chaos’. And other than that, my various abilities that I have.
Extermination is actually possible, and extras who are not the main characters. I don’t know if they all die or not.
Of course, if you do that, you will lose the popularity of Simon and Iaco.
A choice I don’t really want to take.
Second. He just runs away with Simon and Iaco.
Masses or Paladins of Baal.
No opponent to the powerless side.
Even if you don’t use ‘Zana’s life’, running away is not a problem.
But even in this case, Simon and Iaco will be disappointed in me.
I feel bad.
You dared to make me feel this dirty on the topic of extras. I’m running away?
Third. Call Ignis to heal the paralyzed patient and let everyone know that I am not an impostor.
My mana is optimal now. Enough to summon Ignis and treat the paralyzed patients like yesterday.
The problem is that the sick who come to me now are not the only patients with paralysis.
I see some patients with paralysis in the middle, but I see more people who came to me for other reasons than that.
Those who are blind, those who have lost their arms, and those who find themselves with other diseases.
Perhaps yesterday, if only paralytic patients came to visit after hearing the story of the first paralytic patient, today, other patients came here with hope after hearing the story of yesterday’s paralytic patients.
You cannot heal them with the power of Ignis.
No, I don’t know exactly.
As long as Ignis obtained ‘divine’, which is the same as the condition for godhood, I don’t know how far it could go. However, the very act of calling Ignis made everyone recognize that I had done something.
I don’t know if Ignis succeeds in curing all the sick, but if I call on Ignis and don’t heal the sick, the public might think that I summoned the flames as a threat.
Then you might turn all these onlookers into enemies. An option that carries the risk of choosing either option 1 or option 2 in the worst case scenario.
And the fourth one.
My ‘Gift’ ability.
The ability to not even control the way I want.
On top of that, an ability that doesn’t even properly grasp the truth of that ability.
However, in every moment of crisis, this ability is to use the ability that solved the crisis even if it is different from my intention.
An encounter with Saula not too long ago.
It wasn’t my intention, but I completely neutralized Saula, the final boss of Part 1, who would grow to the point of removing one of the gods of ‘Chaos’, and sent her away.
Although the situation I am in right now is not a ‘crisis’ situation and it is possible to deal with it, it is an ambiguous situation where it is difficult to deal with it neatly.
Also, it might not be a bad idea to use this power in order to have a clear grasp of my abilities in preparation for what’s to come. It’s a situation where you can deal with it even if it goes wrong, so it couldn’t be more suitable as a test bed.
Then…… The events of Saulah’s time allowed me to hypothesize about my abilities.
It’s still just a hypothesis…… If what I’m thinking is correct. If anything related to the book I wrote is correct. With this power, this situation may be completely overcome.
What…… If it doesn’t go as well as you think, you can run away in the second room.
I don’t think I’ll be able to settle things with Simon and Iaco if I choose the first option.
“It’s a scammer. Is that what I think?”
After organizing my thoughts and making up my mind, I opened my mouth.
No matter how coherent and sensible I may be, it will be impossible to convince the crowd.
Those who have already fallen for the bishop’s instigation once.
Retrieving it is harder than a camel going through the eye of a needle.
Even if the ‘Gift’ ability works as well as I think, it may be difficult to completely bring the crowd’s heart.
Then… What if I become a better priest than the bishop?
No, how about going beyond the level of a priest who is simply loved by God and becoming an apostle sent by Deus to help those who suffer in this world?
…… Then, if it goes wrong, it will be difficult.
Anyway, this is your alter ego. If something goes wrong later, you can throw it away. Let’s just scream
“But…… Even if everyone distrusts and ignores you, Mother still loves you.”
Right now. I am an apostle of Deus.
Become a saint who came down to save the sinners of this world.
“Mother will give you another chance, and you will be purified.”
As I finished speaking, I used ‘gift’.
Anger
Then, a bright light was emitted in all directions centered on me.
Soon the light covered the whole city.
After an eternity-like moment passed, the light faded and the original sight returned.
Is this guy’s ‘Gift’ different every time he activates it? I hope my hypothesis is correct.
“Oops! My arm… ! My arm has grown back!”
“Snow! I see snow! See ahead! I can see ahead!”
“Where is this?”
“Father! Are you awake?”
“The arm…… My arm, which was injured in the battle with the monster…… !”
“The scar is gone…… What the hell is this?”
Looking around, I could see the bodies of the sick among the onlookers completely healed.
As a bonus, even the paladins who are perplexed by the disappearance of permanent disabilities or scars.
The vision of the blind, the consciousness of the unconscious, and even the new arms of the armless.
Uh…… Much more than you think…… Are you reckless?
What I intended was a ‘recovery’ of the level of the pope or saint of the church… ….
This is a ‘resurrection’, no more a ‘miracle’… ?
Ah, this is not the time to be like this.
“I have come to bring back the unbelievers.”
Why did I bother to use the ‘gift’?
I have to bring the public completely to my side.
“If you have faith, Mother will wash you clean.”
There is a reason why I have to say this.
If the ‘Gift’ is activated as I intended, ‘healing’ will be applied to everyone in this place. I didn’t even think of the size that would cover the city like this….
In any case, it might seem strange to heal even those who are hostile to me.
But.
However, what if I am not just a priest, but a savior who gives sinners another chance?
If that’s the case, then it’s not strange at all.
Recover unbelievers.
I am sent by Deus, but I am not punishing sinners or unbelievers.
Rather, he was sent by Deus to retrieve his lost children.
Okay.
I made it this far.
The public has no choice but to completely fall for me.
Ha. How about this extra bishop?
Look at that bewildered expression.
This is the first time, right?
I was also shocked that a scene that was more tremendous than I intended came out, but what a shock it must be in the situation of that guy who has no choice but to know about the concept of ‘sacred power’.
When I finished speaking, the whole street was filled with silence.
The crowd who had been roaring with anger against me until just a while ago.
Those who were surprised and noisy by ‘healing’ after ‘Gift’ appeared.
Everyone became quiet at my story of ‘faith’.
Um…… Was it too shocking?
If this is the case, should I say another word?
“Oh! Son of God! I trust you!”
Then an old man from among the onlookers jumped out and shouted at me.
…… Huh?
Son of God?
“I believe in you! I will not distrust you!”
“Thank you, savior!”
“Thank you for saving me!”
“I will follow you, son of Deus! Please wash me!”
Wait a minute.
Wait, wait, wait, wait!
What do you mean by Son of God?
No, I didn’t even say that I was the son of God?
An apostle, an apostle!

Ah. Is it because you called Deus mother earlier?
Certainly other religions don’t call God Mother or Father.
Unknowingly, like Christos, I called Deus my mother.
I should have taken into account the fact that Deus religion did not spread in this Nova Empire.
On top of that, the crazy level of AoE healing that covered the entire city also made me think I was the son of a god….
Uh…… Should I say I am an apostle and not the son of Deus?
No, but if you say that in this atmosphere, it doesn’t seem like much!
Earlier, you were bluffing and saying things that seemed ignorant!
“Profit…. Do, go back!”
“Bishop? Bishop!”
After watching this scene, the bishop turns his back and leaves.
The priests and paladins of the Church of Baal also hurriedly followed.
Well, there are things I have accumulated so far, but I don’t think you want to admit my ‘miracle’.
It must feel like everything you’ve built up is crumbling.
But what can I do?
It seems that your position in this city has already been ruined.
…… Ah.
Isn’t it time to worry about this now?
What should I do with this?
Even now….
No, that doesn’t seem like much….
I don’t know.
How are you?
It’s an alter ego anyway.
Just a son of a god.
“Trust Mother Ju Deus. Then all of you will be saved.”
Waaa
The public cheers when they say a word.
If something goes wrong later, you can throw away your self-immolation and run away.
