The very next day we decided what to do. I immediately contacted my friends. I need your help, so please cooperate.

Of course, I think this was a fairly pure remark, and in reality it was a high-handed nonsense that meant giving me a chance to become useful, but my friends who were used to my tone of voice asked me when I could go without even asking about the circumstances.

“Is this a place where a doll that looks like the past Ruel lurks?”

“Are you fighting the hero?”

When I told those who arrived at the territory soon after about the enemy we would have to face, Arthur and Frey’s eyes sparkled.

One side may look calm, but it is an otaku who is fascinated by heroic stories, and the other side is probably a good fool if it is a strong opponent.

hmm. As expected, these two get along well. Even though Arthur denied it last time, isn’t there still something there? They may have feelings that they don’t even know about.

“But. I. Lucy. Ruel resides within your weapon, right?”

I nodded in response to Joy’s question. Last time, my grandfather said that he saw something in my body, so there is no point in denying it.

“The one I’m going to meet now is a fake made by a virgin girl. It’s a doll that recreates the days when an old man was full of energy.”

Even if it is a fake, it is not something that can be easily defeated.

Especially now that I have become a burden rather than a force.

But with my current friends, I’m sure I can deal with them. It makes no sense for members of this caliber to gather together and lose.

“For your information, the old man is still begging if he can’t go.”

“…Why?”

“Mmm. Idiot. There are times when you remember something foolish you did in the past and kick back the blanket, right?”

“That. Why are you asking that?”

I can see that you can’t keep your eyes still. Well, an idiot is someone who makes a mistake at least once a day. It’s strange that it isn’t there.

“Imagine that idiot appearing in front of you as is.”

“I will reduce you to ashes.”

“That’s it.”

It’s quieter now than last night. Garad, who understood the situation, thought it would be fun and started suppressing the grandfather.

Thanks to this, the fight between heroes is ongoing in my inner world. This is not a sparring to improve each other’s skills, but a battle to truly kill the opponent.

Watching the two fight was helpful in many ways.

It was so disappointing that there was no popcorn. It was a scenery more like a movie than a movie.

“I think he may be clumsy, but other people think he is a great person. Ruel is a legendary person who is treated like a saint in the church.”

Fabi said she was looking forward to it, but reality might be different from her imagination. If it were that bad, there’s no way my grandfather would have resisted so desperately.

“Back to the main topic. Lucy Aln. Where do we go now? Is it the same desert as last time?”

“Your brain is poor. There’s no way you, a virgin, would have left toys in the same place, right?”

“Then where is it?”

“A place full of idiots who mistakenly think they believe in God.”

Holy place. A place I have been reluctant to go to until now. Originally, the plan was to sneak in and come out without anyone noticing.

However, now that I have decided to ask my friends for cooperation, I have to change my plan.

If I were caught trespassing alone, I could laugh it off and say it was Lucy Alln’s eccentricity, but if all of us trespassed together and were caught, it would become a national problem.

I don’t want to give the first queen any justification!

“Originally, we would have had a headache because of hypocrites who are tired of pretending to be noble, but fortunately, there are people among us who like that trash so much that they don’t know what to do.”

The current Fabi is truly a person worthy of being called a saint.

In the past, I would have liked only the people at the bottom who didn’t know the situation, but now I have the favor of people at the top.

Even the cardinal who came with us last time seemed to clearly respect Joy, whether he knew it or not, so it couldn’t have been just a misunderstanding.

“It’s possible. A poor woman?”

I thought Faby would be excited and say it was possible, but strangely, there was no reply.

what. What. This doesn’t mean it was my mistake, does it? I don’t know the exact situation because I didn’t ask Karia!

“…F. Lady.”

Faby was hesitant even as she received our attention, and only after a while did she call me in a trembling voice.

“Is the Lady coming to the Holy Land!? The Lord’s Apostle is finally coming to where he should be!?”

And then I realized. The reason Faby remained silent for a long time was not because of hesitation, but to suppress her excitement.

“If you had told me in advance, I would have prepared to serve you! no. It’s okay now that you know! First, I will contact Cardinal John and make the minimum preparations! And the clothes… ugh?!”

Where had my usual calm been thrown away? I grabbed Faby’s cheeks as she was running like a horse in a Western movie, and I mercilessly pulled on her cheeks, which were stretching like a rubber band.

“I don’t want to be taken care of by the old folks over there, right? It would be difficult if they misunderstood that you like that type of thing.”

“Daeddeut. It’s a hobby!”

If you do something like that when you still don’t know what the Pope is up to, you’ll be too noticeable!

I already have a headache because of Queen 1 and Renee, so what can I do by adding to my troubles?

I know you’re excited about stopping by a sacred place, but you have to do it in moderation!

I punished Fabi until her cheeks swelled with a slight fever, then I sighed deeply and glared at her, who was in tears.

“It’s up to you to please those smelly old men. I don’t plan on doing anything there.”

“I see. I misunderstood because the Holy Father suddenly said that the Lady was coming while he was away. The thing you are most wary of is sincerity.”

“…What?”

According to Faby, it seems that after the last intervention in the fairy forest, the Pope disappeared.

There was no major confusion as there was an exclusive secretary who received the order from the Pope and a Payby who could replace his role, but the Pope’s sudden disappearance seemed to be causing a stir.

“The situation is not so good. While the thinning process was in progress, the final decision maker disappeared. Karia said that there are many people who think this is their last chance.”

I’m still paying attention, but when I heard Fabi’s concern that if this disappearance continues, it will definitely lead to a big uproar, I unconsciously tightened my brows.

Things are so good. Why, I decided to visit there and the Pope disappeared?

It’s not like something happened during this time. However, there is no way that a person as strong as the Pope would have any trouble working with Rasha.

This disappearance was clearly intentional.

Why?

I frowned at the answer that didn’t come out, but then clicked my tongue, feeling once again that I was ignorant of the situation where I wasn’t in the game.

“It is not difficult to help you get in and out. Even so, she is a saint of the church. However, if you go through the official route, you will have to go through several procedures.”

“Are you saying it will take time?”

“No. 3 Prince. I can ignore such small things with my authority. What I want to tell you is about the rules of the Holy Land. No one can take lightly the rules that have been strictly observed since the shrine was created.”

Former Bishop John, now Cardinal, took a long breath in front of the mountain of work that was only increasing even though he was working hard.

Since all of this is for the church, I have no intention of rejecting any of it, but this amount of labor is somewhat burdensome.

So I’m happy. It’s as if the Great Lord has told me I have value.

However, if I continue working like this, I will definitely make mistakes, so I need to take a breather.

As John, who had touched the tea leaves he had loved since he was a bishop, was waiting for the temperature to rise, the crystal ball he had carefully placed on one side of his desk began to glow.

“Saint?”

– Cardinal John. I am contacting you because I have urgent business.

“Tell me.”

– I’m planning to visit a holy place with my friends. Could you please go through the procedures in advance?

“Are you referring to close friends as polite people?”

– That’s right.

After hearing Fabi’s affirmation, Yohan felt his heart beating faster.

After a long, long time, the apostle of the Lord comes here. For the first time in the history of the Church, a hero chosen by the Lord is coming here.

Recognizing that fact, John immediately stood up, thinking that he had to prepare the appropriate etiquette right away.

– wait a minute. Cardinal John. The person coming here is, after all, my friend and daughter of the Arn family, Lucy Alln.

“…Ah. I see.”

okay. Lady Arlen does not want her identity revealed yet.

Because he knows that the current church will not acknowledge the existence of apostles.

ha. shit. Even though I know it shouldn’t be like this, curses keep coming out of my mouth.

1 year.

If you came just one year late.

At the very least, if you had come after this thinning out, I would have been able to convey all the courtesy you need to offer to the Apostle of the Lord.

“When can I prepare by?”

– The sooner the better.

“Then, come visit us tomorrow around lunchtime. I will prepare everything by then.”

The good news is that the Holy Father is not here.

If there was that person whom the lady was extremely wary of, I would have had to stop him from visiting for the sake of the lady.

– I. Bishop John.

“Why are you doing that?”

– There is one more thing I would like to ask you.

“Seeing as you are hesitant to speak, it must be personal business.”

– …shamefully so.

“Please tell me first. I will agree if I think it is reasonable.”

– …that. Can I dress my friends in church attire?

I expected it to be something personal, but I never expected it to be this personal.

Yohan, who easily guessed what Joy’s wishes were from Joy’s shy appearance, thought for a moment and then nodded with a light smile.

“I understand. Let’s make a suitable excuse.”

– go. thank you!

There is no need to be a rigid person bound by rules. Didn’t the Apostle of the Lord make us realize that what is ultimately important is the desire to do good?

So, no one would say anything if he behaved like this for the sake of the saint who felt like his granddaughter.

I also want to see him wearing church clothes.

Yohan, who realized that he had changed a lot from a year ago, took a sip of tea and left the office.
