I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

After the train had been traveling for a while, the rain outside the window seemed to have subsided a bit.

At this moment, Father Novak, who had been looking down at his book,

He suddenly looked up and gazed at the nun sitting opposite him.

In just a moment, Father Novak realized it.

The worry was evident in the nun's eyes.

Seeing this, Father Novak gently closed the Bible.

Intending to offer some words of comfort, the nun found herself in a state of confusion.

"Sister, I know very well what we will face at the end of this journey."

The nun was charged with smoking, drinking, and sexual misconduct.

She might be stripped of her nun status by the Vatican.

The nun glanced at Novak upon hearing this.

He replied somewhat stiffly:

"I am faithful to God, Father."

Then, the nun said somewhat perfunctorily:

"And our job is to make the world a better place."

Hearing the nun's righteous and awe-inspiring words,

Father Novak chuckled in exasperation.

He then bluntly revealed the nun's true thoughts:

"Sister, what you're really trying to say is that you're the only one changing the world, right?"

Then Novak said what the nun wanted to say:

That's like saying,

See, I obeyed the exorcist priest's orders.

Obeying the priest's decisions, which seem somewhat absurd.

But after the exorcism was successful, all the honor and praise went to the priest.

But I've always felt like a servant. Am I right?

Father Novak stared at the nun's face and asked a question.

He also knew that the nun was so indulgent.

It's really just dissatisfaction with one's position and responsibilities.

The nun whose true thoughts were revealed by Father Novak

Feeling somewhat stifled, I took a deep breath.

Thinking back on all the past experiences,

She looked out the window and said in a calm tone:

"Yes, because I was originally a servant."

Novak, who knew the nun's true intentions, wanted to lead the exorcism ritual.

He shrugged helplessly and said:

"Sister, this is church rule; only priests are permitted to..."

"No, it's only men."

The nun interrupted Novak, as if in a fit of pique.

Then, seemingly realizing he had misspoke, he coldly added:

"This is all a lie. Why can't I preside over the ceremony?"

Upon hearing this, Father Novak slapped his forehead and continued arguing with the nun.

Li Yuan, sitting to the side, was resting his chin on his hand.

Silently watching the argument between the priest and the nun,

At the same time, he secretly complained to himself:

Even without danger, this journey won't be lonely.

I never expected there would be sitcoms to watch.

Meanwhile, just as Li Yuan was enjoying the plot,

Gabriel, sitting in another carriage, rubbed his hands together.

He gently picked up the wooden box his girlfriend had given him.

Place it on your lap and slowly open it.

"Let me see what this good stuff is."

Gabriel, delighted, smiled and opened the wooden box in front of him.

Inside, they discovered a creature with a bull's head and ram's horns.

And a strange stone statue with a human body.

Gabriel was slightly taken aback upon seeing this, and subconsciously frowned.

He didn't like the statue's design and found it somewhat disgusting.

But the next second, a gentle breeze brushed against Gabriel's face.

Gabriel immediately forgot how he had just felt.

Instead, he gently took the statue out with a look of delight.

He then picked it up with great interest and began to stroke it.

However, just as Gabriel's fingers traced the statue's hand,

A sharp pain shot through Gabriel's fingertips!

"hiss--"

Gabriel gasped in pain.

Then he muttered a curse under his breath:

"Damn, this is really unlucky..."

As he spoke, Gabriel subconsciously put his finger in his mouth to stop the bleeding.

At the same time, he looked at the strangely shaped statue in his hand and muttered to himself:

"What a pity, it looks like just an ordinary handicraft."

"Crafts? What are you talking about?"

Just then, a girl's voice suddenly rang out beside Gabriel.

A little girl holding a book stood to the side.

Staring at the statue in Gabriel's hand, he said softly:

"This statue is quite a frightening thing."

Gabriel paused, stunned by the strange appearance of the statue.

He nodded somewhat perfunctorily and replied:

"Um...you're absolutely right."

Then, Gabriel looked down at the statue in his hand again.

He chuckled and muttered to himself:

"It's a terrible gift, isn't it?"

However, the girl didn't actually mean that the statue was scary.

Rather, they genuinely knew who the owner of that statue was.

She tilted her head and introduced it to Gabriel:

"This is the Demon King Asmodeus."

Gabriel was somewhat surprised by this. He looked at the girl and asked with a smile:

How did you know?

When someone asked her why, the girl proudly raised her chin.

He explained to Gabriel with a smile:

"Because I like reading."

As she spoke, the girl, in a good mood, continued to explain things to Gabriel:

Asmodeus, the Demon King, commands 72 legions.

He is the demon of desire, who will punish humanity for indulging in carnal lust.

Upon hearing the girl mention the word "carnal desire," Gabriel smiled and asked:

"Little one, do you know what that means?"

The girl shook her head very frankly and said with a smile:

"I really don't understand."

Gabriel smiled and shook his head, about to speak...

Just then, the girl's nanny hurried over.

She said softly, with some concern:

"Finally found you. Remember not to wander off next time."

"I just went to the restroom."

The girl, whose hand was being held, winked mischievously at the nanny.

Then, before leaving, he turned to Gabriel and said:

"Let me give you a spoiler: there are no demons here at all."

Sir, you should be careful about the people around you.

As she spoke, the little girl winked at Gabriel.

She was led out of the carriage by the nanny's hand.

Gabriel, sitting in the chair, watched the girl's departing figure.

She chuckled and said, "Thank you, I will."

At that moment, a strange sensation was eroding Gabriel's body.

For a moment, Gabriel's gaze wandered.

He quickly put the statue back into the wooden box, muttering to himself:

"Alright...you should go back too. Damn it, what's going on?"

Gabriel cursed under his breath, then gently closed the lid of the wooden box.

And just as the lid closed,

Suddenly, a faint yellow light appeared in the statue's eyes.

At the same time, Gabriel turned to look out the window.

In a daze, Gabriel looked out the car window, which was filled with dark clouds.

I saw several crows chasing after the train with all their might!
