Do you want to hear a story from a long time ago?

It's a story from a long time ago, when Buddha was still in India.

At the time, there was a person called Aṅgulimāla.

He was cursed,

and he could only be freed from it if he killed 1,000 people.

Aṅgulimāla killed every single person who came across his path,

killing 999 people.

So he just had to kill one final person.

But out of all people,

his mother, who was waiting for him, came out to greet him.

So Aṅgulimāla had to kill his mother as the 1,000th person.

That's when…

Buddha, who knew about this, appeared in front of Aṅgulimāla

and stopped him from killing his mother.

Since then, Aṅgulimāla reflected on his wrongdoings

and focused on practice.

People would throw stones at him and call him a murderer wherever he went.

But Buddha…

told him that he was going through what he would have gone through in hell

and that he should endure it.

After enduring such painful practice,

Aṅgulimāla finally reached Buddha-nature, entering nirvana.

If that's the case… do you think we can be forgiven like him?

Yes.

Because you've both been through hell,

which has been more painful than any hell anyone else has experienced.

Jesus, eternal Priest,

keep Your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart,

where none may touch them.

Please protect this young priest.

Johan, you've been asked to carry too much burden.

I shall take over now and carry the cross.

I will pay back for your dignity with my life.

Mister.

You are still reckless.

What is this? It seems to work against lust demons.

You should protect yourself, Miss.

These are silver bullets filled with holy water.

I can always count on you.

Gungtan.

Won Mi-ho.

You should have just run away.

Miss…

You will soon realize…

how foolish your decision was.

The air on Jeju Island is fresh, right?

Take a big breath in.

Because I'm going to send you back to hell again.

Was it nice back in there?

I will kill you right now.

Where have you been all this time?

I've asked you to take good care of Miss.

I was a little busy.

Van, are you okay?

Sorry for being late.

Van.

I must go.

Yes, I already know.

Protect me, so that I can get up there and create the barrier.

You can do that, right?

Of course I can.

Our contract is still valid.

Hurry, and open a path.

So hasty.

Just don't fall behind and follow me closely.

Miss, please be careful.

You too, Mister.

Johan!

Johan.

Are you okay?

I'm the one who should be worried about you now.

Are you okay?

Of course. Who do you think I am?

I must go and create the barrier.

-I'll come with you. -No.

Please hold them off a little longer with Van.

Until I create the barrier.

Don't die or get hurt, got it?

Go.

Leave this place to me.

I'm counting on you.

Won Mi-ho.

You can do this.

How could you not be scared?

In addition to your current life, the memories of your past have been added,

so it must be a heavy burden.

Granny…

You can stop it now.

You know you can't beat me now, don't you?

I don't really intend to kill you.

You are the same as me.

You despise the humans who made us like this,

and you also despise this island.

You're not some kind of protector of this island.

We are just locked on this island because of that bitch’s spell.

Shut your mouth.

It's a pity…

that after all this time, you still don't realize you were deceived.

Come back to your old self, and let's end this together.

This hellish island.

Johan.

Johan!

Did you call me?

Can you hold him off for a moment?

I won't be able to last long.

I'll be back soon.

So you've come to change the place of your death.

I didn't think I'd see you again.

Because of someone else, I cannot afford to be on sick leave.

Is that so?

You're back from the brink of death,

so I wonder if you've changed at all.

Thanks to you, my mission became clear for me.

I'm not simply following this path to conform to Him.

So what I'm trying to say is…

that even if my God takes back revelation,

I'm going to…

protect my people.

You petty beings are making me laugh.

Try your best then.

Van!

I don't want you to disappear by creating the barrier like this.

I also don't want

you to disappear like that.

Did you know about it?

Do you remember what you told me?

You told me it was my fate. And that I should fight it if I can.

You were right.

It is my fate and my burden.

There's no place for you there.

You already know it too.

That I'm the same as them.

The fate was decided as soon as their blood began running in me.

Won Mi-ho.

What are you doing?

Van, don't do it. Don't do it!

Van…

I'm really worn out now.

No, don't do this.

-It has been an awfully long time… -Don't do it.

So I want to rest now.

No, please don't do this.

So please, let me ask you for one last favor.

Please help me so I can rest.

It is my last request.

Van…

Van.

What's wrong? You can't hold on any longer?

I told you, didn't I?

You talk too much.

You're back.

Now you look much more like a brother.

Van.

It's not too late yet.

Together, let's slaughter the humans who made us like this

and sever all ties with the Law of Causality.

The Law of Causality will not be severed by destroying this island.

After being surrounded by humans for a few hundred years,

do you think you've become a human or something?

You're also nothing more than a ghost wandering in the human world.

The one who will complete you is not that woman trying to be Wonjeong.

It is me.

Gungtan.

While you were sleeping for a few hundred years,

I only lived to find ways to sever ties with the Law of Causality.

But foolishly, I only learnt it now.

That the only way to sever the Law of Causality

is for you and I to no longer exist.

So you and I must vanish.

The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.

He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,

he refreshes my soul.

He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.

We were together from the beginning, so we should end it together too.

Why don't you work?

-What? -Protect me.

You said you would protect me.

You promised to protect me!

I don't care even if you're a lust demon.

I don't care when I might end up dying.

I trust you.

You said it was a piece of cake. Don't act weak, and get up.

You think I can't hold your hand if you don't offer it?

You still don't know me?

For a long time, you were waiting alone, right?

I'm sorry.

I'm not able to save you.

Van…

Van!

Father.

ONE YEAR LATER

I'll get going now.

Everything…

must exist for Baek's purpose.

It's been a long time.

The person you came with is the one who protected you, right?

Someday, if the world ends up covered in white light…

White light?

Yes.

If that day comes, the light will bring all darkness into the ground,

and all those who have protected you will also vanish into that darkness.

Are you scared?

Yes.

So you must help us in order to stop that from happening.

I'll give you power to protect what is precious to you.

Can you do it?

However, on the off chance that the world is covered in white light,

then we will come find you.

We need your help.

VATICAN MONASTERY

What's wrong with your face? You don't look like yourself, Giovanni!

Did someone die or something?

It's not like you.

Saint Michael the Archangel,

defend us in battle.

Are you thinking of Su-ryeon? Or your brother?

Or perhaps Van?

Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

You know it too.

This is just the beginning. And it can never be stopped.

You poor thing, are you scared?

You are shaking.

Run away. Run away, Giovanni!

Escape this place!

You know it too.

This is just the beginning. And it can never be stopped.

SEOUL

Ask them to have it sent by the morning.

Please arrange a press release on the return of the temple artefact

-in time for the lifting of the embargo. -Yes, Ma'am.

Director Kim will attend tomorrow's opening reception

for Hwang Mi-ri's solo exhibition instead of me, right?

Yes, President.

Thank you for your work.

PRESIDENT WON MI-HO

Van.

BAEK

Because I believed it was my mission,

I thought I had to endure even the pain of his sacrifice.

Johan.

Mi-ho.

Yes.

I know.

By burning everything I had, I thought I could bring an end to the darkness.

I'm scared of a much larger darkness that I didn't even know existed.

Will he be able to come back?

Who else must I lose or let go of?

However, fear accomplishes nothing.

I'm going to save the world again.

From the crisis of humanity that is sweeping over us…

faster than our steps.
