079 – Hyde goes to Barakhan’s theological college! # One

“This is my first time going to Barakhan!”

Psyche’s face brightened slightly.

The atmosphere of the Agarpe estate, which had been gloomy over the death of the old greedy Parmas, bloomed as if flowers were in full bloom.

“Barakhan is a shitty city.”

Milione clicked his tongue.

The mood was even more somber than when Parmas’ life ended in an ugly way.

“Jo… Chase you! Milione! You can’t use such harsh language in our couple’s bedroom!”

Psyche was a brave woman who knew how to protest against injustice.

In response to Psyche’s protest, Milione shrugged her shoulders and slyly said, “I was just telling the truth.”.

Milione guy.

I don’t know why you keep interfering with Psyche and me, leaving me alone in my own room.

I had never been to the capital Barakhan either.

“Millie, have you ever been to Barakhan?”

“Dad, it was about once. This was when my eldest brother, Alter, turned 18 and was appointed a knight with a gold plate. It was a disgusting place.”

It was Milione who was pretending to vomit.

Psyche trembled when she heard those words.

“I heard that Saint Barakhan is a city where the savior’s deeds are intact. I heard that the walls and cathedral that the Lord walked on are still there! Such a disgusting place… !”

Is this exactly the expression on a person’s face when they hear the truth about the travel destination they were looking forward to?

If you go on a trip to Paris, expecting to see a beautiful city with the Eiffel Tower, but find out that it is a place full of all kinds of unkindness and racism, this is exactly what you will look like.

But it was necessary to listen to Milione’s words in reverse.

Milione is a vicious, evil, and dirty criminal-like girl.

Those guys tend to hate and stay away from sacred and godly things.

In other words, Milione’s dislike meant that Saint Barakán was a wonderful place.

“I’m also very excited about what kind of place it will be.”

If the royal capital, Royal Road, was the center of the secular world, the castle town of Barakhan was like the center of the spiritual and religious world.

So to speak, it could be considered a holy place.

Jerusalem of 2 billion Christians.

Yes, it would be nice to think of it as just that.

Milione, who was soon sitting on a chair, crossed his legs and frowned.

“Hyde, are you looking forward to going to Barakhan too? I thought you were a person who was not interested in pilgrimages and holy places?”

That was correct.

I actually didn’t like the word pilgrimage or holy place itself.

It’s sacred land.

Where is that?

The land was a slave to humans, the lord of all creation—no, it was a being that had to be ruled and managed by humans.

Because God created the world and gave humans the authority to manage and govern it all.

You worship such land as sacred?

Honestly, it’s absurd.

The same was true for pilgrimages to holy places.

Will I be saved if I leave for the Holy Land?

you’re welcome!

“Pilgrimage does not simply refer to a journey to that land. The journey of salvation from being born as a human being to heaven is itself a pilgrimage.”

In other words, I did not believe in pilgrimage or ‘holy places.’

I don’t even think about it positively.

Psyche’s eyes lit up as if she was moved by my opinion.

“That’s correct! Hyde, listening to you talk makes me feel ashamed that I have romanticized this journey too much!”

As expected, Psyche was a woman I recognized.

It’s quicker to admit your mistakes and accept what’s right!

In comparison, Milione was a mean bitch.

Milione pouted his lips and added another word.

“Hyde, speaking of that, it seems like you are also looking forward to going to Barakhan? That package. Isn’t the luggage too much and too big? What did you pack a lot of?”

You’re expecting me to go to Barakhan?

Where did you hear such nonsense?!

“Millie, don’t say nonsense.”

I scolded Millie.

Then Psyche asked:

“Hyde, are you okay with us going to Barakhan?”

“No. That’s not necessarily true.”

Actually, I was also quite looking forward to the road to Barakhan. It wasn’t because the place was called by the grand name of a holy place.

I’m just going on a trip abroad.

As a true believer, you should not attach much significance to ‘Jerusalem’, which is just a piece of land.

It’s natural to want to go there and see and experience things for yourself.

Soon Milione spoke.

“What is it? So, you did what I said, right? Why did you say you had no expectations when I told you?”

“That’s right, Millie. Because it’s a story that came out of your mouth.”

I wasn’t very excited about the Barakhan journey with Millie.

Rather, I was worried.

When I think about what kind of accident this guy got into and how I can fix it, my head hurts.

It’s to the point where I’m trying hard to figure out if I can dump it in Barakan instead of trying to fix it.

Milione’s older brother, Alter, is working there, so should I leave it to him?

no.

The expression “entrust it to you” itself was strange.

In the first place, Milione’s family was an alter ego.

He’s responsible for being pushed, not me!

anyway!

The journey with Psyche was more exciting than the journey with Millie.

No matter what, the city is called a ‘holy land’.

There is a lot to see and there will be many religious pilgrims.

So to speak, Psyche and I were now truly on our honeymoon.

A pious couple on their honeymoon in Jerusalem.

How wonderful is that?

“Sister Midnar won’t you go with us?”

When you have finished preparing for the journey.

I asked Sister Midnar again.

Sister Midnar was packing her belongings, and next to her, Lucy was also diligently stuffing clothes and soap into a small bag.

Sister Midnar said.

“I don’t think it would be a good idea to take Lucy to Barakhan. As I said before, I plan to take Lucy to the Ivory Tower in Royal Road soon.”

When we left for the Holy Land of Barakhan, Sister Lucy and Midnar said they were planning to head to the Ivory Tower located on the Royal Road in the King’s City.

Lucy is the illegitimate daughter of Pope Gregory.

A girl whose very existence is not acknowledged.

It was obvious what would happen if such a woman was taken to Barakhan, where Pope Gregory resided.

There will be a lot of problems.

“Lucy, I will miss you!”

Zech─.

Psyche held Lucy in her arms.

The embrace of two beautiful women had the effect of touching a person’s heart in itself.

Some even joke that perhaps the Lord created the world because he wanted to show people this sight.

Soon Lucy had tears in her eyes.

“Psyche, thank you so much! I, Lucy Emma, will never forget the grace I received from Psyche! And Milione too!”

Whisper-.

It was Lucy hugging Milione.

Of course, Milione was disgusted.

“You crazy bitch! Get away from me!”

Milione, you naughty bitch!

How can they be so vicious and cruel even during breakups?

It was because I was hit with this as a child and never grew out of it.

Look at Proverbs 13:24.

“To sparing the rod is to hate your children. Isn’t there a phrase that says, “Parents who truly love their children discipline them faithfully?”

If you truly cared for your children, it was right to discipline them by hitting them with a cane.

If you raise a child without hitting him, he will go on a rampage like Milione and cause mischief.

So if you die and go to hell, is that really right?

If you truly love someone, you must stop them from going to hell, even if it means beating them.

“Milione! Milione is a good person too!”

“… Get out!”

Look at that.

Milione you naughty bitch!

Of course, Lucy was a brave person and didn’t care much about Milione getting angry or swearing at her.

Lucy now looked at me.

“Hyde! It was great to meet you! I got a lot of help from Hyde! I will definitely learn and train in the ivory tower and do my best to become Hyde’s second wife! Because I like Hyde!”

“Look at that crazy bitch! I knew I would do that! How dare you say it so proudly, as if you weren’t even ashamed to say that you were becoming his second wife! Girls should be modest!”

Milione was astonished.

It’s probably because he takes Lucy’s words too seriously.

However, I was rather shocked by Milione’s use of the word ‘modesty’.

Does Milione really know the meaning of the word “chastity” and use it?

Of course, I didn’t say that out loud, so I spoke lightly.

“Miss Lucy, I look forward to the day when we can meet again.”

Lucy still felt like a fresh-faced girl even though some time had passed since she left the island.

But─.

Lucy’s perspective will broaden and she will gain experience as she looks at the wide world from the royal road, Royal Road.

Then, you will realize that the emotions you felt were love that easily volatilizes.

“Lucy, stop it and let’s go. You have to take a boat that leaves in the afternoon.”

Lucy trembled at Midnar’s small shout.

She looked at us again as if she was truly regretful, and then tears welled up in her emerald eyes as deep as the sea.

“Me! The past few days with you guys have been the most enjoyable and fun of my life! Let’s meet again! please! Don’t forget me! Be sure to see you again later!”

Boom boom-.

Lucy, with tears in her eyes, waved her arms wildly and got into the carriage carrying a large bag.

Lucy stuck her head out of the carriage window.

“Hello!”

This-.

Tap, tap, tap.

Finally, the carriage departed.

Lucy continued to wave her hand out the window, and only when she was out of sight beyond the hill did Psyche wipe her eyes with her handkerchief.

“I think I felt more attached to it than I thought. I really thought of them as real sisters. Will Miss Lucy be able to get along in the capital’s ivory tower?”

“That will happen.”

Lucy was a stronger woman than I thought.

Childhood trauma.

A closed island and cult-like nuns.

Unlucky growing environment.

Instead of being defeated by that, it bloomed proudly like a wild flower on the asphalt.

“When we meet again, you will have grown even bigger.”

“Hyde, what will you do if Miss Lucy still likes you when you meet again?”

What if Lucy still likes me when we meet again?

In many ways, I had no choice but to think seriously.

In fact, I am a more pious and faithful man than anyone else.

He was the best groom.

No matter how many other men Lucy sees in the capital, the largest city in the world, she will never find a man as great as me.

Soon Psyche spoke.

“I think it would be okay for Miss Lucy to be my second wife. I think you can get along well with me. In the Bible, wives are often sisters or live like sisters, right?

The story was that if it was Lucy, Psyche would also be able to get along well as sisters.

The story of Psyche warmed my heart because it was common in the Bible for a first wife to fight with her second wife.

Psyche is good after all!

However, Milione, Satan’s minion, frowned.

“What is it? What are you talking about? I think Lucy would be able to get along well. It seems like you are comparing yourself to someone? I shouldn’t be a second wife—what are you talking about?”

Milione, this guy─.

I always hear stories like this crookedly.

It’s really the devil himself who is encouraging the conflict.

“Hmph! I also didn’t want to be Hyde’s second wife! I too have received a marriage proposal from a count or duke! know? What a body! If only it wasn’t Rust!”

It was like that.

The rumor that Milione was raped by Rust quickly spread along with Rust’s notoriety.

In addition to the fact that Archbishop Archibald was demoted, Milione’s marriage talks came to a halt.

Even if there are, there are only strange ones.

In fact, strictly speaking, it was self-employed.

Rust never raped you, Milione!

Of course, such a story cannot be said in front of Psyche.

I said carrying my bag.

“Then, let’s leave.”
