Easy:
1.The name is clearly religious enough IRL to transfer those same, innate assumptions to fiction easily.
2.It's F I C T I O N that hurts no one, does not condemn anything or anyone IRL or incite a type of aggression IRL.
Does it offend? Some, yes. Does that matter that much to you? Genuinely, stop reading if it does. The work is already published and the official English translation isn't much better - your complaining doesn't change this retroactively. You'll only upset yourself more.
Nope the name Benedict, is, real I'm dissappointed though the real saints Benedict didn't make a deal with the devil. Duh. I allso found out their, are some mannhuwr that uses religion as some sort of cult, like for example the one that I find is about the catholic, I find it in the other Manga and now these, if it okay but for me it's not.
You'll have a hard time finding a historical manhwa where the church isn't a cult,, also the name thing is crazy,, of course the name Benedict is real!!
"Benedict didn't make a deal with the devil" well duh,, it's not like the Benedict on this manhwa (WHICH IS FICTIONAL) and the Benedict irl are the same person,, just because two people have the same name and one is depicted badly doesn't automatically mean that it's meant to reflect on the other??? That's just crazy anon
you do realize that this is fiction, right?
Well I do, but oh well it seems everyone has a different perspective and opinion.
Author used the name pope Benedict, the real pope Benedict didn't make a deal with the demon, in fact they fear him, and he's name is being respected by many priest and believer in hes power and protection, now. How could you used pope Benedict name
