===4: Faith Organization===

Kamijou: …

Putana: You come strutting across our border and ask to defect, but then you fall silent? You have some guts, but we are a merciful world power and we are willing to accept refugees. First the Legitimacy Kingdom and then the Capitalist Corporations? Looks like you saw more than one hell on your way here. But there is nothing more to worry about. Chance meetings like this are a blessing from god, after all.

Kamijou: Now this I recognize. I already have a very bad feeling about some of the things you’re saying here! Let me guess, this is the headquarters of the magic side and anyone without latent magical power is treated like they’re subhuman! Not again! I’ve had enough of these discriminatory systems!!

Putana: Magical power? What are you talking about?

Kamijou: And that makes me sad in a different way!

Putana: Well, I can’t say for sure none of our sects believe in that sort of thing, but for the most part, the Faith Organization is not about those occult and fantastical beliefs.

Kamijou: Hm? How do you have a religious group without having miraculous powers of the occult?

Putana: We are a collection of all who worship god. No matter what god that might be, we respect all who seek god’s love like we do.

Kamijou: Heh. So is it time for Kamijou-san to be an ass? If you respect any and all gods and religions, then will you accept me if I start my own Church of the Worldwide Sex Revolution? Yeah, I guess you wouldn’t. Ha ha!!

Putana: Actually, we would accept you just fine.

Kamijou: Why does everything here have to be so insane!?

Putana: Well, you are free to start your own church, but the Faith Organization includes all kinds of religions already. You just have to hope that none of those take issue with yours and annihilates you.

Kamijou: Wait, wait, wait!! We’re talking about annihilation already? What happened to respecting each other!?

Putana: We respect each other as much as our respective holy texts and precepts demand. I mean, if you believe your religion is the best, why would you ever follow the compromises listed on the pamphlet?

Kamijou: U-um? I’m a little confused. I thought you were a big group of friends called the Faith Organization.

Putana: Ah ha ha. If we didn’t have a common enemy, we’d be at each other’s throats in the blink of an eye. That’s why we always have to search out a convenient enemy to preserve the organization. Because if we don’t find one, we’ll be accusing each of other of being witches.

Kamijou: Is there nowhere here that’s safe!?
