Believing in God does not mean you can instantly obtain ‘divine powers’.

And even if you gain divine power, you can’t become a healer and go around treating people.

If you pray consistently from a young age, you will be able to awaken ‘divine power’.

Please note that awakening divine power varies from person to person.

If you pray consistently with faith in God, you will gain divine power.

In the worst case, there were cases where one could not obtain divine power until the end.

Now, here a question arises.

‘Anyone can have divine powers if they just pray? Then why are healers so precious?’

A divine power that most people can have simply by praying.

However, not everyone was able to gain enough divine power to heal wounds.

Some people gain divine powers that are so tiny that they can’t even heal a wound as big as a fingernail.

And surprisingly, 80% of believers fall into this category.

The remaining 20% were granted divine powers that enabled them to heal wounds, but not all of them were able to qualify as healers.

‘I thought I would be able to walk on a flower path once I gained divine power.’

The real struggle begins when you gain divine powers.

From then on, not only my head but also my body had to suffer.

“Performance… right?”

“This is a must-have course to further increase your divine power.”

“If it’s required, then you absolutely must do it.”

“That’s right. The divine power increases when you perform it.”

“What happens if you don’t do it?”“Why do you wonder that? I’m going to do it anyway.”

“… … .”

It wasn’t a choice.

To become a healer, you have to study for a long time.

But they even ask you to perform it there.

But people don’t know that fact.

So I didn’t know either.

I want to go back to before I came to church.

“… I will go and perform it.”

Do you know how priests who aspire to become healers practice?

‘Are you telling me to attain enlightenment?’

It is a 100-day silent practice that means practicing without killing anything, eating only grains.

Surprisingly, this practice is said to be one of the most popular(?) practices among priests.

It’s not hard to hold on to, but it’s efficient because the amount of divine power that increases is large.

I, who possessed some degree of divine power worthy of being noticed, began to practice in tears.

and.

“Great!”

Divine power has increased significantly.

‘… I wish it hadn’t grown at all.’

If this is the case, doesn’t it mean that I will have to keep practicing without being able to do anything?

There was no way the priests wouldn’t perform effective practices.

‘Fuck.’

My childhood passed by in a flash, repeating study and practice like that.

Before I knew it, I had become a priest.

“Here!”

Became a healer.

* * *

The church deliberately created in people the illusion of divinity.

Since divine power was a power bestowed by God, the healing ability of a healer who used divine power as a base was advertised as an ‘omnipotent’ ability that could cure any illness.

‘Fuck.’

A person as powerful as the Pope, who overflows with divine power, could perform miracles as advertised.

Since he became the Pope with divine powers, it would be natural that he would be able to cure any illness in an instant.

But ordinary healers can’t do that.

It was a divine power that could be gradually increased through all kinds of training, so it was natural that its limits would be revealed soon.

The problem is that the church has fostered misunderstandings and people think that all healers are panaceas.

And the ‘healers’ could not bring themselves to clarify the misunderstandings that had been created directly in the church.

When asked why it wasn’t possible, the only thing he could say was ‘it was due to his own lack of ability’.

“Oh my… My stomach. Oh my!!! I’m dying! Aaaah!”

“Patient, let me take a moment to diagnose you.”

“I’m dying from pain!! Please fix this quickly!!”

“Where does it hurt?”

“Hey! Can’t you see I’m holding onto my stomach? Aaak!!”

The patient was rolling around in bed, clutching his stomach and groaning.

A sigh comes out on its own.

If you’re really in pain and feel like you’re going to die, you can’t move like that.

Still, I thought he was acting like that because he was sick, so I said it with the kindest smile I could muster.

“Patient, you must show your stomach to receive treatment.”

“Ugh.”

The man who was threatening to die from pain at my words quickly broke his stomach.

I guess it really is painful.

“Ppa, hurry up… .”

“Okay~ Let me press it once, so tell me where it hurts.”

I swallowed a sigh and pressed my fingers firmly on the lower part of my stomach that I had been holding earlier.

“Oh no! Just fix it, why are you pressing it?!”

“This is necessary for treatment. Are you sick here?”

“Yes, yes! That’s right. So please hurry up and treat me!”

“How does it hurt? Does it hurt like someone is pinching you?”

The patient started to swear again at my questions.

“Just because it hurts!!! It hurts, it hurts, what’s the use of how it hurts!!”

“Information needed for treatment.”

“Just, just heal me with divine power. I didn’t ask about this last time I came. Why are you doing this?! Is it okay to torment a patient like this?! Do you think I came to the healer’s office and paid a lot of money for this!!”

“Have you already been treated? Did you come back with the same symptoms then?”

“Yes!”

I guess I’ll have to ask the name of the healer who treated you.

It is clear that the cause was not treated because proper treatment was not received.

So, my illness relapsed quickly and I had to visit the hospital again.

“So how are you sick?”

Ugh-

I heard a clicking sound, and the patient finally answered my question.

“It looks like someone is stabbing me with a knife! Is that okay?”

“Have you ever seen blood in your urine?”

“I don’t know!!”

It seemed like it wouldn’t be right to ask a patient who was already hurt about his symptoms any more.

I decided to start treatment because I thought I had a rough idea of how to treat it.

“Okay, I understand. I will start the treatment.”

The patient had a wait-and-see expression.

I guess they’re just waiting to see how well the treatment works, but I’ve seen that kind of expression on my face so many times.

I started the treatment by raising my divine power.

What was amazing about becoming a healer was that I could cure people even though I had no medical knowledge whatsoever.

‘The healer is a fraud.’

Is it because divine power is an ability given by God?

Surprisingly, if you raise your divine power, a method to cure any disease will naturally come to mind.

However, the reason I asked in detail about the symptoms was because the more knowledge I had and the more divine power I had, the more effective the treatment method would come to mind.

Because of this, depending on which healer you receive treatment from, you may or may not be able to cure your illness.

The more serious the illness is and the more difficult it is to treat, the more you need to see a competent healer.

“Is this happening right now? I don’t feel anything. Last time I started treatment, the surrounding area felt hot.”

“Yes, don’t worry, it’s going well.”

The reason the surrounding area is hot is because the healer’s skills are lacking.

The divine power was supposed to cure the disease, but it was being used to warm the skin.

Since the divine power was wasted like that, even if you receive treatment, it will relapse.

Telling them all one by one would be like spitting in my face, so I just ignored them and focused on treatment.

The patient’s body, which had been stiff with pain, was seen slowly relaxing and losing strength.

“Treatment is finished.”

“Huh?”

The patient who had been doubting whether he was being treated was now lying still with his eyes half-open.

Then, as if he had come to his senses at my words, he blinked in surprise.

“Does anything hurt?”

“???”

“Nurse Priest.”

“Yes, patient, your treatment is finished, so please stand up.”

“Okay, wait a minute. Are you sure the treatment is really over? It feels like it ended too quickly. It still feels a little sore.”

Since the divine power itself is a beneficial energy to the body, there were sometimes patients who, even after receiving treatment like that, cried out for more.

Since these types of patients are usually treated by a nurse, I took off my gloves and left the examination room.

“Huh? Where are you going leaving the patient? Do you know I spent all that money just to be treated like this?!”

Although I am a priest who strives to follow God’s will, whenever I see such a sight, I cannot help but doubt whether the path I am walking is really the right one.

‘Be patient, be patient. This is all training and practice.’

I believe that if we persevere, repent, and endure the endless waves of misanthropy, there will come a day when the sun will shine.

It is not the first or second time that the misanthropy that has been built up in this way has been rewarded with the precious ability called divine power.

‘I hope to be a little more mature tomorrow than I am today… .’

If you grow little by little every day, there will come a day when you can laugh even when you see patients who are acting all kinds of crazy.

Enduring the present for the future is something I have been doing consistently since I entered the church.

Today too I smile.

Because it’s a healer!

◎ ◎ ◎

It was an unremarkable day from the time I woke up in the morning until I went to work.

“Arthur Priest.”

“Yes?”

As soon as I got to work and put my bag down, Father Leo called me.

“You came early. That’s good. I had something to tell you.”

“What’s going on?”

As soon as I got to work, I wondered what was going on, and then I heard something unexpected.

“The bishop is calling.”

“Coolook!”

“Oh my, are you okay?”

“Why are you here, Lord Bishop?”

“Well? Usually in these cases, you call me to scold me because I caused an accident, right?”

“I didn’t have an accident?”

I really haven’t had any accidents.

That makes me more anxious.

If you’re not calling because of an accident…

An ominous feeling stabbed the back of my head.

“Have you heard anything?”

“Well, I couldn’t ask for the detailed reason.”

“Do I have to go right now?”

“You asked me to call you as soon as I get to work, so I guess I should do that.”

“Okay, thanks for letting me know.”

I didn’t want to go.

My steps are heavy.

Recently, he hasn’t fought with the patient and has been doing well.

But why?

After hesitating for a while in front of the room where the bishop was, I gave up and knocked.

Just because you were called doesn’t mean you can’t go.

If you have to get hit anyway, wouldn’t giving up quickly be a better way to reduce emotional exhaustion?

Knock knock-

“Bishop, I came because you called me.”

“Come in.”

As I opened the antique gold doorknob and went in, I saw the bishop sitting on the sofa, probably waiting for me.

The white robe that she said she wore every morning after washing it neatly stood out.
