Okay, let’s be honest.
I underestimated the 300-year-old relic.
It was my fault and I am reflecting on it.
But there was still some room for excuses.
‘Because I used up all my divine power, I had no power to stop it.’
But now that we know how serious the problem is, all that remains is to stop it.
First, I told the people that they had to say their morning prayers and then I came into my tent.
Then he took out the holy relic and sprinkled holy water on the cloth.
“… … .”
Would it be okay to sprinkle holy water?
He changed his mind again, brought a large bowl, poured holy water into it, and put it in.
I don’t think that holy water can solve the problem of a 300-year-old holy relic.
What I was aiming for was something else.
‘What are the characteristics of a holy water? It has very good divine power… .’
If you put in divine power like this, the divine power that you put in will be inflated!
“That’s right. I’ll press it down and pack it in, so eat it well.”
The fact that the dream was a mess means that he still had the strength to do so after what happened yesterday.
I knew the holy relic was great, but I didn’t know it was this strong.
“Priest.”
Sister Melody came into my tent in a hurry to check on the situation.
“Have you heard the situation?”
“Yes. But you’ve already started using it.”
“I felt heavy when I woke up, but I thought I was the only one who felt that way.”
“Everyone said they had nightmares. I couldn’t help but wonder what caused this.”
“Sister, do you think this is the culprit?”
“Sure. But is this possible?”
I think it might be suspicious at first glance because you don’t know what kind of saint this is.
“Would you like to dip your finger?”
“… … .”
He put his finger in without hesitation, as if he thought there must be a reason why I told him to do so.
“Huh?”
“Can you feel it?”
“Yes, I can feel it. This will definitely work.”
“Yes. I plan to soak it like this and prevent the energy from escaping. I hope this works, but I’m not sure if it will work as I expect.”
“You won’t be able to escape this level of divine power. And I think there’s something more I can do for you here.”
My sister disappeared for a moment, saying she was going to get something.
When she reappeared a while later, she was carrying a box of a suitable size.
“I think it would be okay to fill this with holy water and seal it. I asked for permission to get it from someone else.”
“Well done. Thanks to you, things will be a little easier.”
The box was just the right size to contain the relic.
Fill it with holy water and place holy objects inside.
Then I closed the lid and wrapped it in a cloth.
“I’ll do one thing.”
“Yes.”
Woof -!
Light radiated from her hands and soon settled into the cloth covering the box.
The traces of light had disappeared, but I could sense the presence of divine power and knew that what she had done was some kind of seal.
“You just sealed that, right?”
“Yes, that’s right. Now, no one will be able to open the box. And it won’t be opened by mistake.”
“It’s sturdy.”
“But it won’t last long.”
“You just have to hold out until you can send it to the country.”
“The sealing will be done once every three days. It was originally supposed to be a week, but I thought it would be hard to keep quiet inside, so I made it three days. If you think it’s not enough, please let me know at any time.”
In fact, I too was thinking that it would be dangerous to trust this seal and leave it alone for a long time.
“Yes. I also need to add some holy water and divine power, so it’s just right.”
For now, we sealed it as a temporary measure, but it remained to be seen how well this would work.
* * *
As we sealed the door and went outside, everyone was talking about their dreams.
I opened my ears and eavesdropped to see what kind of atmosphere it was… .
“The priest said it was okay, so what’s the problem?”
“But it still feels awkward. Because I even had that dream.”
It looks like everyone is feeling uneasy because they had a nightmare about robbing the heretics’ warehouse yesterday.
The real cause lies elsewhere.
“Was your dream very uncomfortable?”
“Your Majesty.”
When I showed up, everyone stopped complaining and shut their mouths.
“Please don’t feel uncomfortable and speak comfortably. If you are concerned about it, I will pray for you. It would be okay to have a light service.”
“It’s nothing special, but you’re making a fuss. It’s just a dream, you know.”
“Are you sure it’s okay?”
“Of course you can’t even endure this much, right?”
Although there were some team members who were concerned about their dreams, they all seemed to want to take it lightly.
When it comes to these issues, if you try to be serious, you become infinitely more serious.
I can understand why people try to brush it off lightly.
“You don’t have to force yourself to endure it, I’ll pray for you separately. So, don’t worry about your dreams and act comfortably.”
“Oh, we’ve burdened the priest for no reason.”
“No. Isn’t that what you were originally doing? Rather, I’m glad I can do it.”
Although the person who complained got a brief glare, everyone seemed to like it when I told them I cared.
“It’s not like the ghost really lingered and made my dream messy or anything, right?”
“That’s not it. This place itself was used by heretics, so I don’t think it was completely unaffected. The items are the same. But it doesn’t make sense to say that all the items were cursed just because the people who used them were heretics.”
“Oh my, I’m going to put back half of what I greedily took.”
“Why? You told me to take as much as I want.”
“If you are greedy about something, it will probably come back to you as bad luck later.”
So, each person was packing and taking what they needed according to their level of faith.
There were still some people who were rummaging through the items, unable to decide what to take.
In the midst of all this, Sister Melody stepped forward.
“A hidden room was discovered.”
He calmly informed the leader of the existence of the secret room as if he had just discovered it.
There probably wasn’t just one relic in the secret room of the warehouse.
“However, the power of heresy is permeating here and there. I think it might have been a secret vault used by a high-ranking heretic. There were also equipment that seemed to have been used by him while he was alive.”
“We’ll have to check it out ourselves, but it doesn’t seem like something we can handle.”
The leader also quickly understood what Sister Melody meant.
“Yes, that seems plausible. There may be some that are not true, but it won’t be easy to pick them out in the current situation.”
“I thought I should show my sincerity to the church that helped me send Melody and also helped the priest join. Father Melody will take care of all the things inside.”
“Can you say that without even seeing what’s inside?”
It seems that Sister Melody also didn’t know that the leader would show a bit of foolishness.
“The princess originally told us not to take any of the items in here. I heard that Priest Arthur and Priest Melody didn’t take any items. The princess took care of them, at least. I feel relieved because the items in that room seem to have been distributed evenly among the team members.”
In fact, if you think about why this team was created, that kind of behavior may be natural.
The reason Princess Rasiel entered the labyrinth was not to make money, but to remove the curse of her older sister, Princess Kanabi.
‘But I thought I would have no choice but to waver in front of the gold coin…’
When I thought of Princess Kanabi, who had been worried a lot because her younger brother was still young, a smile came out of my mouth.
I too looked at Princess Rasiel with a sense of unease, but there was no need for that.
Of course, this would have been possible because the leader was by her side and assisted the princess well.
“Let’s take a look anyway.”
“Of course.”
We’ll have to check that vault to see if there’s anything in it that can lift the curse.
Of course, there are more items related to curses.
“This is it.”
“There was a gap between the walls.”
“It would have been harder to find because it was covered by this thing next to it. I found it because I felt the wind blowing from this side.”
“It’s too narrow to get in?”
“Are you having a hard time?”
It seemed unlikely that a leader with a larger body than an average person would be able to get in.
The female sisters Melody and Princess Rasiel would be able to fit in without any problems, but I, with my skinny body and missing muscle mass, would barely be able to fit in.
“Yes, that’s impossible.”
“I guess I should bring someone who is a bit thinner among the team members.”
“There’s no need to bother me, I’ll just go in and check and come out.”
“This could be dangerous, Your Highness.”
“It is safe even if you have trouble entering with two priests.”
One of them was excellent at killing, and the other was excellent at saving lives, so they were quite reliable.
What can a leader do when he is too big to enter?
Moreover.
◦There is nothing dangerous inside %◦. I checked everything and left. ”
Since Sister Melody had said that it was okay for her to come in, the consensus was even greater to let Princess Rasiel in.
“It’s cold.”
The whole world was made of ice, and as soon as my back touched the wall, a chilling coldness penetrated my body.
It was an invasion of coldness that I was now familiar with, as I had been fighting the cold for several days already.
“It’s narrow.”
“It seems like this is all there was because I forcibly created a space where there was none.”
If the leader had come with us, it would have been so narrow that we wouldn’t have been able to move.
“This is a gold bar, and this is a jewel box.”
A person would have been completely absorbed in those two things, but Princess Rasiel was indifferent, as if she was seeing something meaningless.
Her eyes lit up when she discovered the box containing the potions.
“Can I take care of this?”
“Of course. Just verify what kind of potion it is before using it.”
“Of course.”
I wonder if there is one among those potions that can save Princess Canabi?
I wish a miracle would happen.
