“Priest!”

uh?

Sylvia suddenly waves her hands and moves forward.

Isabel’s body stiffened at her sudden action, and unfortunately, as Sylvia’s voice reached the priest’s ears, they unintentionally made eye contact.

crazy?!

Putting aside my confused emotions, I quickly grabbed Sylvia’s wrist. No, something like that has happened, so how can I look at your face? I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t even raise my head.

Of course, I said I was drunk at the time, but even if I put that aside, my hands and feet were shaking when I looked back on that incident.

“Huh? Sister, why?”

“… Hey priest, you are talking to the believers. Let’s go without disturbing you.”

“Disturbance? I just wanted to say hello for a moment?”

“You look busy. Let’s just go.”

Isabel tries to quickly avoid this situation by making excuses.

It seemed like I had already made eye contact with the priest, but I thought something would work out if I left quickly.

“You two are here.”

Of course, if this voice had not been heard.

Priest Isaiah looks up at Isabel and Sylvia with a bright smile, wondering how long he had been here.

For a moment, Isabel felt as if her heart had stopped, and almost instinctively, she avoided eye contact.

Fucked… .

I ran into someone I least wanted to run into. Of course, it wasn’t because I didn’t like it. My last remaining conscience was just telling me to get out of here quickly.

“Hello. Priest.”

“Ah, hello.”

Isabel and Sylvia smile brightly and say hello to the priest, not knowing how she feels. Since I couldn’t continue to pretend not to know, I reluctantly and awkwardly smiled and welcomed him.

madam… . I want to run away… .

I felt like I wanted to hide in a hole somewhere. I don’t know why the priest came this far to just continue his conversation with the believers.

“It’s been a while since I saw you. Are you here for the warrior election ceremony?”

“Ah, yes… .”

I can’t show my expression, so I put on my face as much as possible and answer without knowing.

Soon, Priest Isaiah glances at Isabel and Sylvia with a bright smile.

His gaze was soon fixed on his superior, Isabel.

“Isabel, it’s been a while. How have you been?”

“Ahaha… . yes… . What am I… .”

Unlike Isabel, her tone was gentle, as if she had completely forgotten what happened that day.

I couldn’t read what was in those bright eyes.

“I was really grateful for the work at that time. You are the savior of my life.”

“No. haha… .”

How many times have I said that already?

After that incident a year ago, I started talking about her whenever I saw her.

To say that you saved my life, that you were a lifesaver… . I thought I would do it once or twice, but after a certain point, it felt burdensome to be greeted like this every time.

“Wooh… . Priest, I think I helped you too… .”

“Hehe… . Thank you too, Sylvia.”

Sylvia’s lips protruded as she asked why she didn’t say thank you.

Priest Isaiah responded by scratching his head as if he was sorry.

… But that bitch… . Why is the tail like that?

It shakes mercilessly like a dog that meets its owner who has gone out to work. Even though she was a woman, her emotions were being expressed as is.

“Oh my! By the way, Sylvia, I didn’t see you during the service last Sunday. Were you very busy?”

“Aha… . I have a lot of work to do for one reason or another. I will definitely come out next time.”

“I wasn’t urging you… . You don’t have to force yourself to come out. He always came out without fail, but suddenly he stopped coming, so I was wondering if something had happened.”

… huh? for a moment… So far so good, but what is this conversation about now? I’m secretly listening to it from the side, and the content is quite disturbing.

Sylvia I know that this guy is definitely an atheist, but I don’t know what kind of nonsense this is.

He has no interest in anything like that, let alone religion. however… . A kid like that always went to Sunday service without missing anything?

I really don’t want to think like that, but this bastard can’t believe the priest… .

The facial expression gradually becomes distorted, as if it has suffered. Sylvia’s face was openly red, as if she had no intention of hiding it anymore.

@@@@@

“Anyway, you two, please follow me. I will guide you inside.”

“Ah, yes… .”

Because there were too many people, Isabel and Sylvia followed Priest Isaiah through the back door rather than the front door.

Everyone was waiting at the front gate, and I asked if it was okay to do this.

Although others may not know, it is said that all the villagers who originally lived here should gather in one place inside the church.

Only then can the Lord come down and properly check who the warrior is?

Anyway, for that reason, I arrived at the huge chapel of the church. As she entered, familiar faces caught her eye one by one.

“You can wait here. There are only 30 minutes left until the election ceremony. Please rest comfortably.”

Priest Isaiah turns around and leaves as if his work is done. I turned my gaze and saw this bastard, Sylvia, staring at the back of Priest Isaiah with her mouth wide open.

Pak-

“Ah! Why are you hitting me?”

When I scratched the back of her head to tell her to come to her senses, Sylvia stumbled forward slightly and suddenly glared at me sharply, asking why I was acting like this.

Seeing Ji holding his head up stiffly, not knowing what he had done wrong, it seemed like he had not been beaten yet.

“Are you crazy?”

“Oh, why?”

“You go to Sunday service? Didn’t you tell me you were an atheist?”

“No… . You can believe it, why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

Are you saying that because you really don’t know? Then it is as serious as it is. Even if I just watched from the side, I could see it clearly with my own two eyes, and my bones ached.

“You crazy bitch, no matter what, the priest… .”

There is no afterword. If I went any further than this, I felt like I was going to burst out because it was really crossing the line, so I barely held back and swallowed the words that had gotten up to my throat.

“Sa, why did the priest… .”

“Why don’t you put up a poster saying it’s very good. Huh?”

“Ah… . Is it obvious like that?”

It’s obvious… . I can’t help but sigh because it’s so absurd. No, I have to look beyond it. I wonder if it makes sense for a mere adventurer to have dark intentions toward a priest.

No matter how different or thoughtless the child is, I never thought it would be like this.

“You… . ha… .”

All I can do is sigh. To be honest, I didn’t know what the point was, so I gave up and sat down on the long worship chair.

Now that I’ve come to see it, it looks like he was wearing all those goka clothes in hopes of impressing the priest at least a little bit.

“Think about the gap in status between you and the priest. There are things you can do and things you cannot do.”

“No, what is that… . It may be a bit like that, but it won’t be a big problem, right?”

I know how Sylvia feels. Of course, there is an attractive man, but in a way, it is a woman’s natural psychology to want to make him hers.

But there is also a reasonable line. Doing something like that by following the priest to his place of work was no different from a crime. I don’t know if the other person likes me and doesn’t show any signs of it, but

I was watching from the side and no matter how I looked, I thought it wasn’t that thing.

And above all… .

Because I did it with the priest… .

This really confused me like crazy.

“Tsk… . okay. I’ll be careful… .”

“No, just try… . done… . I don’t know either.”

Isabel didn’t feel like she would understand if I said any more, so she leaned back against the backrest, feeling like she should just figure it out on her own. As I waited for a while, the main door of the church burst open.

@@@@@

The ceremony began. When the Pope entered the chapel, the noisy place suddenly became quiet.

After that, high-ranking people such as cardinals and archbishops came in, and I was quietly watching all of this from a distance.

“Phew… . It’s starting.”

Before I knew it, Deacon Rachel was next to me and clinging to me like a chewing gum. It looked like someone could misunderstand it, but fortunately it was in a corner, so no one noticed.

“Deacon Rachel, what about the bishop?”

“Stay over there. Can’t you see?”

As I squint my eyes in the direction Deacon Rachel is pointing, a black lump catches my eye. Everywhere you look, you see Bishop Lisa, all black from head to toe. He was sitting near the front of the chapel, looking at the podium with blank eyes.

“Why? Shall we go to where the bishop is?”

“Oh, no. It’s just here. what… .”

I don’t really want to get involved, so I shake my head.

Then this time he turned his gaze to the left in the direction where Isabel and Sylvia were.

Fortunately, the two of them were sitting comfortably without going anywhere.

“I will perform the ceremony!”

The advent ceremony begins with such a loud voice. The cardinals and archbishops who were standing in line behind the Pope began to move hurriedly as soon as he finished speaking.

It was finally the moment of my first encounter with the Holy Spirit Amanes.
