Chapter 277 Exorcism Ritual? Abandonment Ritual!
The Pope stared intently at the doorway, his heart filled with anticipation.

"Someone must have noticed something was wrong and come to rescue me."

The footsteps grew closer and more hurried.

"The sacred artifact has been retrieved!"

Milia rushed in excitedly.

He was holding a bottle filled with water and a cross.

The light that had just appeared in the Pope's eyes dimmed again.

Milia pouted: "Why do you look so disappointed? Did I take the wrong one?"

"No, you took the right one."

Milia put the things on the ground, turned her head, and caught a glimpse of Li Ji holding a demon by the hand.

The demon squatted with bowed legs, smiling obediently, revealing four fangs.

Milia cupped her face in her hands, her eyes sparkling, and exclaimed excitedly, "It's Devo! He's so cute! Can I touch him?"

"Touch it."

Lee Ki handed the devil's little claws to Milia.

Milia chuckled as she stroked the goat horns: "They feel so nice. What a good baby."

"You recognize this thing too?"

"Yes. I saw it at the zoo when I was a kid. When will the demon come?"

"This is the devil."

"Eh?"

Milia stared in astonishment at the demon in her hand, who was squinting and enjoying being stroked.

"Aren't demons supposed to be extremely ugly, disgusting, and evil creatures? How could a sweet and soft little Devor possibly be a demon?"

Li Ji watched as the demon opened its foul-smelling mouth, revealing a mouthful of fangs, its pure black eyes devoid of any light.

"You call this fragrant and soft?"

"Yes, it's so cute. Earthlings really don't know how to appreciate it."

Sometimes, Li Ji doesn't know who to empathize with.

The pope, who was pinned to the ground by God, was dumbfounded.

Fragrant and soft?

Is this human aesthetic sense?
Why would I have any illusions about these guys?
They couldn't possibly be God's family of four; they must be Satan's apostles!
Li Ji signaled to Shark to release the Pope.

The Pope got up from the ground and straightened his wrinkled robe.

Li Ji picked up the water bottle and the cross from the ground.

The water bottle is a conical bottle with a long, narrow neck. Under the golden glass, even the water appears to be a rich gold color.

The cross felt heavy, as if it were made of some kind of metal, with a white outer shell and inlaid with luxurious gold edges and rubies.

"Your Holiness, please exorcise the demon."

The Pope looked at the holy relic handed to him; the cross still gleamed golden in the dim light.

He was stunned, and asked hesitantly, "Do you really want me to exorcise the demon?"

"Of course. Don't you know how?"

Yes. But—

"Just what?"

"nothing."

The Pope frowned as he accepted the sacred artifact.

He couldn't figure it out.

Aren't these people apostles of Satan?
Why would they perform an exorcism themselves?
Aren't they afraid I'll drive them away too?
Could they really be God and his family of four?
But where would God find a family of four?

Lee Ki sat down on a chair to the side.

His idea was simple: curiosity.

Since the Book of Satan is a manual for raising alien pets, exorcism rituals might be something similar.

He didn't believe that this little bit of water and cross could harm the devil.

The three of them sat in a row on the chairs, quietly watching the Pope's performance.

The Pope swallowed hard.

He slowly walked toward the disgusting creature.

Every step was incredibly heavy. He had studied exorcism systematically, but had never performed it on a real demon.

The demon was baring its fangs and rubbing its face with its shoulder.

The Pope opened the bottle of holy water, dipped some in, and gently sprinkled it toward the demon.

The demon blinked in confusion, its dark eyes revealing no emotion.

It just stood there blankly, scratching its thin belly, letting the Pope do as he pleased.

Li Ji asked curiously, "What do you think are the ingredients of that bottle of holy water?"

“Pure water,” Shark Baby explained.

"How did you know?"

"I can tell."

"If you say you can tell, then you really can."

The Pope carefully and cautiously raised the cross.

"The devil is indeed cunning, pretending to be harmless. But I will not let my guard down."

He slowly approached the demon with crab-like steps until they were only half a step apart.

The demon still didn't make a move, but instead used its sharp claws to scrape the tartar off its teeth.

"You despicable demon, still pretending, but you have no chance."

The Pope holds up a cross.

The light stretched his shadow long.

The shadow of the cross resembles a giant sword, which a majestic paladin wields in solitary combat against the demon.

Lee Ki clenched his hands nervously: "It's coming, it's coming. The exorcism ritual."

The Pope held up the cross and repeatedly murmured, "kudumoso, kudumoso, aligaliluo!"

"Eh?"

Lee Ki's expectant gaze vanished instantly, and his fists, already clenched with tension, tightened even more.

The three men's backs, which had been straightened for other reasons, visibly slumped.

"This person is sick."

The demon collapsed to his knees with a thud, clutching his face and howling in pain, the sound echoing throughout the entire archive.

In an instant, the demon turned into a spark and disappeared into the dim light.

The Pope let out a deep sigh of relief, and lowered his raised arm.

He was like an aging knight who used his last strength to defeat his opponent.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness. Thank God for protecting us."

Suddenly, he felt a foot kick him hard from behind, knocking him to the ground.

Before he could turn around, he heard that familiar yet chilling voice.

"Are you fucking crazy?! You old geezer, you're so mean, why would you use such vile swear words on a cutie like Devo for no reason?"

"You actually told it: 'You are the worst and most disgusting creature in the world. Your owner doesn't want you anymore. No one in the world will love you. Get out of here!' How can there be such a bad person like you in this world, meow!"

"You scared it away, you've achieved your goal, you must be so happy, meow! You pervert, meow!"

After saying that, he slapped her across the face.

People joined in the condemnation of the Pope.

"Exactly, exactly, you're the one who's kudumoso, your whole family is kudumoso."

"This is the kind of quality the Vatican has. They talk about loving all living beings, what hypocrisy!"

Although Li Ji understood that the Pope was unaware of the situation.

But thinking about how the Vatican had used this rhetoric to harm countless homeless children for centuries, Li Ji was also a little angry and couldn't help but kick the Pope.

The Pope held his head in his hands, letting the insults come one after another.

His aggrieved voice was drowned out by the insults from the crowd.

"Didn't you call me an exorcist?"

"Why did you treat me like this after the exorcism?"

"You really are Satan's apostles! You've set a trap for me to humiliate me!"

"Lord, where are you! Save your servant!"

Shark Baby kicked the Pope in the butt: "The Lord is here!"
