As we neared uncle's house, Jack pointed out an abandoned house at the edge of an empty lawn. Every time I come, I see parts of it falling apart. When we got to the front of the house, Jack pointed to its broken roof and muttered.
"The Satan lives here. This is now Satan's house."
"Because it is an abandoned house, human Satan may be seen there."
"Many realities are more surprising than the fantasy of human imagination my friend..!"
"If so, show me that Satan who lives here?"
"I 'll show you, right away." he laughed.
When he saw the look on my face, that smile rose.
In the dim evening, the dilapidated house looked as eerie and mysterious as a haunted house. I had gone past the abandoned house many times with Jack on previous vacations. It was not a topic of conversation then.
I watched the scene carefully.
The house has changed quite a bit in the past few months. Due to the decay of time, some parts are broken. Wild plants and vines had covered some parts of it.
A bat flew over us from inside its roof.
"Look, do you know who is going?" Jack whispered in a low voice.
I didn't understand anything. I looked at his face.
"Satan..!"
"Jack.., don't be a fool. You are not talking to a baby."
"You'll think I'm crazy, of course. But there is a truth in this. The Satan in the form of a bat lives among men on earth."
"Where did you get this knowledge?"
"It is said in the books of witchcraft."
" Evidence?"
"With our enchantment, you will soon know."
I did not speak. I kept my mouth shut and avoided an argument because I knew him and his fantasy world well.
"Not all bats we see on Earth are Satan. But here it comes from an abandoned house, an uninhabited dark room. Therefore it is likely to be a Satan." said Jack, pointing to the Bat flying away. "He would now go to some cave or deserted house to meet his companions."
His remark reminded me of Satan in some stories.
'Was it the Satan that ran away? Is it such a small bird that commits big terrorist acts? Can it roar with power enough to shake the valleys of Seago? Is this little creature the one who kidnapped King Delamar of the Nartics? Anyway, this is not something such a small creature can do.'
Some of the Satan stories I have read I compared to this bird. Satan is not so trivial. He is a monster of terror.
"Can be so small?"
" This is not their true form. can appear in many forms. Human beings, animals, and monstrous beings can become Satan in various ways. In empty houses and caves, Satan can be found in the form of a bat. I have been studying this for the past several months. A lot of information has been obtained to influence Satan through witchcraft."
"And you, who calls me every week exactly, haven't told me anything about this yet?"
"I thought I would tell you after checking everything. Now the study is done and everything is confirmed. Now we have to perform the witchcraft and bring Satan to the circle of mantra." Seeing my smile, he stopped and continued. "It's not just for fun. If we make Satan our slave, we gain many things. Satan will fulfill all our desires. It even includes supernatural things."
"What are these supernatural things?"
"we can orbit the earth within the time of an eye blink, reach any planet in the solar system in a matter of seconds, and even in the remote, lightless worlds there, we can instantly penetrate. Let's go to the mansion of mermaids under the sea and have fun with them. And many more..! That too in a short time..!" His face showed that humor well.
I replied with a smile. It worried him.
"My friend, this is not a fairy tale. It is possible. When it comes to experience, you will have faith. Now, this all sounds like a fairy tale. But we are going to make it a reality."
"If we can go to the planets of the solar system, we can introduce Satan to NASA. Each of their projects in search of supernatural secrets costs billions of dollars. If Satan can get all those things so easily, why can't all that money be used for many other things in the country?"
He waved his hands like a clown. "Well, I won't say anything anymore. I used to think the same way. I couldn't go beyond logic either. But experiences changed everything. Now some truths have been realized, surprising truths..!"
He gave that surprised look on his face.
"You know there are people on this earth who are serving Satan. They do many supernatural things. But they don't reveal it to the world. Because it is not allowed. It is Satan's law. If they violate it, they will lose their ability to contact Satan. That's the point. Have you heard of any real witches revealing their secrets anywhere? But there are misinformed fraudsters who wear the cloak of witchcraft for a living. We see them. Dressed in fancy dress, they perform many magic tricks for money. A true magician will not do that, because for him magic is not a means of livelihood, but only a way of knowing and experiencing the problems of the universe. That's all."
His eloquence changed my perception in no time and left me in a quandary.
A doubt filled in my mind that there was something in what he was saying. Even though I couldn't grasp it immediately, I also wished then that I had such a servant who could fulfill all my wishes.
"Through this sorcery, we must make Satan's service available. Then we will leap into the wonders of the universe. Satan will be the charioteer. After that, we will conquer the great oceans of knowledge and live in security. Then we don't have to look back at school.
He looked at me with a very surprised expression. I realized that it was all his tricks to lure me into the subject.
"If you get the Satan, then can you boycott the school?"
"Yes, later we will not need the help of school to gain knowledge."
"What is that?"
"Isn't going to school to acquire knowledge? Satan will give us all the knowledge we want in a moment, and we will become an encyclopedia."
When I heard about the school, another thought came to my mind. As he said, if I had an assistant who could get all the knowledge I wanted in a jiffy, I could quickly learn my main problem, mathematics.
"What do you say?" he asked, blinking.
"Interesting imaginations..! If this happens, we will be the greatest heroes on this earth." I laughed out loud. "But even if it is written in stories, people will not be able to grasp it. That is the reality..!"
"Some truths we cannot grasp my friend, it is a perversion of nature. A rich man approaches you and says, I wish you well, so here is some money, a few million, and hands you a bag. what do you think Can you believe it? Some things are like this. Do you believe after seeing God? We believe in some things without hesitation or reluctance, even if they are things that are stranger than fiction. But some are rejected in the name of logic. Do you not firmly believe in the miracles of the Lord, the miracles of the blessed saints, the apparition of Our Lady at Fatima, and St. George spearing the monster? What is the basis of it all? "
Without answering, I laughed at his prowess.
"You laugh because there is no answer. If I tell you that these are all myths, you will turn on me in anger and call me an atheist. Some we have logic in some we don't. Isn't this position strange? But this is not logic, it is opportunism, opportunism for sustenance. Can we trust our logic completely? We fully believe this logic that even if we see a plant in the moonlight we doubt it..! That is our failure."
"No one but a madman will give millions for free to anybody. It is unlikely. That is why reason does not believe it."
"Can you say it's 100 percent improbable? No, because there is no perfection in anything, nothing in this nature, the nature of nature is beyond our imaginations and beliefs. So the same applies to logic, which means that logic cannot be trusted 100 percent. right?"
"Okay, I believe whatever you say. Give me proof."
"What does it matter that there is a God?"
"This universe, you and I are proof of that."
"It is faith, an understanding of reason, not proof. This argument of mine is a similar belief, the rest must be proved by action. This project is an attempt to do so."
A dry smile appeared on his lips. "We know very little about the universe. Satan can know and do many things that man cannot know or do. Because Satan is not a physical being, but an immaterial thing beyond our senses. That is the difference between man and Satan."
"What other things can Satan do that is not supernatural? I don't believe in any of these impractical things. Useful things that we can put into practice."
"To give an example of such things, there are so many unknown treasures on this earth. Satan can show you that. If we get a little bit of that, then who are we?
"I don't want any treasure. Math is my arch nemesis, it drives me crazy. You just solve my problem by enslaving one of the Satan."
"That's just a very trivial thing for Satan. He'll make you a mathematician in seconds, and I'll need to make you a genius bigger than Einstein. In this way, you will surprise this world by converting the universal physics into formulas..!" Saying that he gave me a serious look..!
I laughed out loud at that expression, which made him laugh too.
The uncle in front and Jane looked back.
"What are you laughing at? " Jack asked a little sheepishly.
"I was seeing in my mind that putting the physicality of the universe in a formula and tossing funny."
"It's all going to happen, friend." Jack
"Yes, if we walk behind this, we will have to walk a long way. In the end, it will go crazy."
"Look, we'll have tied one by the end of this week. Then our journey will be through the galaxies, and in that fun, the earth will be just an evening park for us."
