Chapter 110 – Episode 110
“The one who brings death, Shin Yong-seop, is making a deal with the devil. “Not with your own life, but with the lives of others as collateral.”
“Is that human territory?”
“It is up to us to decide what is a person’s domain.”
“So what can I do?”
“It’s a miracle. “Can you even embrace miracles in the realm of people you speak of?”
“…”
“It’s been that way since ancient times. From great people to countless missionaries, believers, and doctors whose names have been forgotten. The term ‘miraculous hand’ has become corrupted in recent years. The value of the word ‘miracle hand’ is determined by what you do. If you ask about the human domain, that is always correct. Because it deals with people… What do you want to do with that ‘miracle hand’?”
“What I want to do…”
“Okay. “What is the ideal you ultimately want to achieve?”
The ideal I want to achieve is…
It was that I wanted to become a better person.
Not the person I used to be, but a much better person. Becoming a person who can be used somewhere.
Until now, I have used this ‘miracle hand’ a lot for myself.
However, after I started helping others, starting with Gu So-min’s father, Gu Byeong-hwon, I realized that I had a new driving force. I have never been happier than this time. I have never concentrated as much as I did this time.
The massage I am giving Sohee Han now was to make her develop her own antibodies. So that she can dispel the darkness wherever she touches. Even though it has never happened before and I have never witnessed it, I moved with faith.
I am possible.
With the belief that.
The fading golden spots began to increase their brilliance.

After finishing a photo shoot in France, Somin went to the cathedral in the late afternoon.
The local famous cathedral was so tall that I felt dizzy when I looked up. The lingering scent of sunlight still gently saw in and illuminated Somin’s clothes as she sat on the chair in the chapel. It felt beautiful to see the various colors, including red, blue, and purple, each receiving and reflecting sunlight differently.
Somin was not used to living in Europe, so he sometimes missed the atmosphere of his hometown and visited the cathedral, but there was another reason.
It was atonement.
The sacrament of confession, in which one confesses one’s sins to a priest. There were times when he had to squeeze out his sins, but it was only at times like these that he was able to reflect on himself.
But today, the priest was having a conversation with a priest who came from outside.
He seemed to be of African descent, and he gave a mysterious impression because his body was black and blue lights poured out of his eyes.
As always, Somin went to the priest first and said hello, and coincidentally, we made eye contact with the black priest and we exchanged greetings in unison.
The priest’s name was Daniel and his voice was calm. In addition, when I actually greeted him, he gave me the impression of trust, and even if I removed the title of priest, I got the feeling that he was a very strong and strong person.
However, Daniel also seemed to be interested in Somin and spoke to her first.
“Your fate has changed recently.”
“…Yes?”
“People have a set path, but it seems like you met a good person and received a good fate. In Buddhism, it is usually said that one met a noble person.”
Daniel was an open-minded priest.
No matter how much you subscribe to the Catholic Church and go to church, many believers have recently been studying other religions. Daniel was one of those types of believers. He was a person who strengthened his own beliefs while learning what he could from other religions.
Somin was surprised by Daniel’s trustworthy words her her her her. In fact, a lot of good things happened to Somin when she met Junhyeon.
Somin trembled and nodded. Daniel looked at Somin with penetrating eyes and smiled. Rather, Somin didn’t know what to do with his fierce, even scary eyes.
“Can I meet him?”
“…Why?”
“It’s not easy to meet such a precious person.”
The answer was firm and clear.
“And we will definitely need him for the great disaster ahead.”
“A big disaster?”
Then this time, the priest who was watching from the side gave an additional explanation.
“Daniel came here because of the disaster. Of course, the other priests are quiet and tend to ignore Daniel’s words, but since I am an old friend, I listen.”
“I’ve come a long way. Because when everyone who believes in me disappears, I always look for you. That’s how much no one believes me now. Somin will probably find my words strange as well.”
It must sound strange! Somin thought to herself. After all, you shouldn’t judge people only on the outside. It looks so fine on the outside, but it’s causing a disaster that doesn’t work.
Somin looked away and sent a signal of salvation.
“Father, do you think disaster is coming?”
“I was in denial until yesterday, but today, seeing the look in Daniel’s eyes his, I began to believe it. “It has become clear that something strange will happen to the world, whether it is a disaster or a good thing for us.”
“What evidence do you have?”
When Somin asked a sharp question, the two priests made eye contact. It was a signal asking if he could speak, and after Daniel nodded his head, he explained it himself.
“Whenever chaos approaches the world, the Messiah comes. After a long period of research, we were able to find out that the birth of Jesus Christ did not occur only in Jerusalem. There remains evidence that war heroes, including the Messiah, and countless philosophers, scientists, and doctors were born and active in all corners of the country at that time.”
“That’s why Daniel said to Somin that he wanted to meet her. Coincidentally, on the day that Daniel came to visit, Somin came to visit, and it was another fate that there was such a talented person among Somin’s acquaintances. Somin’s fate could change with just one comment.”
If you listen carefully, it sounded like a pseudo-scam. Somin was not a foolish or irrational person to the point of being deceived by such words.
However, the reason I felt trust was because I knew of Junhyeon’s existence her her her. It was too accurate to be overlooked. We will not reach all believers that way. If they had tried to talk to other believers before Somin came, Somin would have immediately thought that they were scamming them.
In the first place, the priests did not speak to believers until they approached them first.
And isn’t this person named Daniel even a priest of this cathedral to begin with?
Moreover, the two people were not forcing anything on Somin. In a way, it’s not like I’m asking for a favor. He was asking if I could introduce him to Junhyeon, as if the connection would happen automatically if God’s will was there.
“What if I say no?”
“In that case, God would have opened a way for him to be active in his own way.”
Daniel’s words his his, smiling gently, did not seem false.
I thought he was either crazy or telling the truth.
“If it’s a disaster… What exactly is it?”
Somin finally started to take an active interest and he asked the question he really needed to ask. He couldn’t just let this question go by.
Daniel shrugged his shoulders.
“We don’t know for sure. How can we know God’s will? But one thing is certain…”
Daniel took a pause, looked around him, and played with his cross necklace. He then spoke in a lower voice, calmer than before.
“More than half of humanity will die.”
“…Half?”
“It’s not just that. People won’t be able to get out easily. You won’t be able to meet loved ones and you won’t be able to help those in need. Many people will lose their jobs. The rich will die of pride and the poor will starve to death. And there is a place that is the source of all those events.”
“Where are you going?”
“It’s China. There are many people living in China. In fact, if the entire Chinese population died, humanity would lose about 20%. And the influence is also significant… And the disaster that starts in China will afflict the nearest country.”
No way…
Somin felt her spine heating up. His throat she was sore and his mouth she wouldn’t open. His father’s illness had just been cured, and it was unbearable for something painful to happen again.
Since Somin was not in a situation where she could return to Korea right now, she was even more worried about her father. Also, she can’t help but worry about her friend Jun-hyeon, whom she loves and follows. No matter how brilliant she was, it was clear that she was unaware of this fact.
“By the way, Somin. There is one more important fact.”
“…What is it?”
“In you, both light and darkness coexist.”
“..?”
“In other words, you have asked for help from two people, the light and the dark.”
Daniel’s blue eyes sparkled.
“And that darkness is the source of the disaster I spoke of.”
