    Just take it. (2)



    “Ah, are you Paula, the matchmaker? It’s famous around here. No, to be honest, he is quite famous among the people of the empire who care about that.”

    -Swipe.

    “This is only discussed here, but there are times when students from the Imperial Royal Academy come directly to meet that lady.”

    At a restaurant I stopped by to confirm the truth, the person who listened to me and said, ‘Aha!’ and laughed as if it was funny, was not even the owner of the restaurant, but a middle-aged man who worked two jobs as a part-time server.

    This seems to be real.

    ‘Somehow, I was really attracted to that accommodation from the first time I saw it. I never thought I would meet something like this… !’

    Besides that middle-aged person, I also asked the tout who caught me as I was passing by, and I also asked secretly at the convenience store, but it seemed like her nickname was real.

    Anyway, I asked the beggar wearing the can, and he told me that if I wanted to know, the information fee was 500 gold!

    Yuria came to the restaurant together and quickly checked that Rudis, who was sitting alone and waiting for her, was not looking. After giving the man a tip to tell him not to say anything to the man, she smiled and returned to Rudis.

    of course.

    ‘That lady, she caught another one. Well, since I only touch couples that I think will really connect, I’m a fraud but I’m not a fraud.’

    Even though middle-aged part-time workers, nearby people, and even beggars knew the truth about the woman, they just smiled and responded to it.

    It’s not really about money or Congo goods.

    Since there were so many families nearby that he connected with, they felt like this was a white lie rather than a scam, and they were the type of people who wanted to help without even realizing it.

    In fact, if you listen to that woman’s advice, your male and female friends, who had been struggling because of the slow progress, will find love, and you will feel like the money you give her is an effective and cheap fortune, so everyone goes along with it.

    Of course, it was many years later that Yuria learned the truth about this.

    “Ah, sister. Are you okay?”

    “Ugh, yes. Sorry, I asked you to go out to eat, but you kept going to pick flowers, which was inconvenient, right?”

    “No. Rather, I feel sorry. It’s my fault that you haven’t rested and moved until now.”

    Not even 24 hours had passed since we were expelled from the Royal Academy and the Kingdom of Frisia, but our schedule in the meantime was as tight as a week compressed into one day.

    It was yesterday evening that I was led by the knights and joined them thanks to my older sister’s consideration. After receiving a bowl of Cup Ramen for the Last Supper, I immediately got my ticket at the airport.

    And although it was a good seat, it could be said that it was a considerable forced march, since it was a long distance ride on an airship, a taxi, a lodging, a nap, and then the afternoon, and it was time to move again for the necessary schedule.

    If my sister’s delicate heart was broken in such a forced march, it is me, not her, who should feel guilty.

    “No. What a forced march. Just my sister… Haha, it’s because I’m a little older.”

    “Ah, just by looking at their appearance, you would believe that they are Ellis and her sister. And even though I’m relatively young, I’m a little tired. Sister, if you’re having a hard time, eat and go to your accommodation first. You can stop by alone when you have errands.”

    “Hehe. Thank you for your consideration. But you want to be with Rudis, right? Plus, “

    “Ah~ Yum.”

    “Without my sister, our Rudis can’t even eat?”

    It would be rude to pretend not to know her heart and refuse any further, as she smiled softly and said she would join me and immediately fed me a meal.

    I thanked Ms. Yuria for her kind consideration and generous heart, and accepted another meal. I immediately went to the church in the imperial capital.

    “Oh my, it is so big and majestic that it cannot even be compared to the church of the kingdom.”

    “Is this your first time at Imperial Church?”

    “Right? Even if they sometimes come to the empire as royal escorts, the royal knights are in charge of all escort schedules in places like this. Our knights were controlling the roads elsewhere, so we never had to see them this close.”

    I clearly remember that the crown prince, who was in the middle of a semester at the academy, also requested a break from classes because he was going to the empire, but Yuria, the knight leader who accompanied him to protect him, couldn’t even come to this landmark.

    Really, the background of the development of the times is a topic close to modern times, and it is a disgustingly classist society, I thought absentmindedly, and after slowly taking a walk around the huge church with my sister to see the night view, we headed towards our destination.

    [New Life Quest: The third-rate villain dies, and the reincarnated person starts anew from today~]

    [You have completed all your roles! He must have overcome many hardships and reached this place with great difficulty.]

    [Broken arm, broken leg. Didn’t my ribs get crushed and my back break, causing aftereffects that I’ll have to bear for the rest of my life?]

    [Maybe an arm was cut off, or a leg was cut off. First of all, I pray that his head wasn’t cut off. anyway! You endured all that pain and arrived in a faraway land to truly start a new life.]

    [If we don’t repay you in any way, wouldn’t we who reincarnated you be a waste of the name God?]

    [So I prepared. After you have really done all the roles. When I arrived at this place, the largest church that serves me.]

    [Life Starting Booster Pack to start a new life! !^Oh^!]

    [Meet the imperial priest and offer a prayer. (0/1)]

    [In case of failure: There is no such thing as failure. We may not be able to meet you because it comes early in the morning, but we are considerate of this.]

    [If successful: You can receive a lot. It’s just great if you succeed, so just do it! If you want to do it, do it!]

    And, I laughed to myself as I saw that the quest window I had been waiting for appeared.

    ‘No, I told you to come here when you were done.’

    Really, he is a ridiculously cheerful god.

    *

    “Okay, see you later.”

    “Yes. I received treatment well and came out~”

    After finishing watching the night view, Yuria decided to wait in the waiting room of the church while I treated my arm.

    Knowing the condition of my arm, she knew I would seek out the Church of the Empire. To be precise, he predicted that he would go to a church bigger than the Kingdom Church.

    -Rudis, that arm. It can’t be fixed in the kingdom, right?

    -what. Did you know?

    -I know. Because I knew that on the day the incident happened, you were taken first to the Kingdom Church, not to prison.

    -Is that also Ellis?

    -no? When I looked at the situation after you entered the prison, I found out that there were no other critically ill patients transferred that day other than you.

    -No way, so give me an airship to the empire… ?

    -answer!

    When I think back to the conversation we had on the airship, I truly feel helpless in Yuria’s consideration.

    It’s not like Ellis told me, but I just bow my head to her concern for me, who was caught red-handed, and even prepared future measures in advance.

    Really, once my arm heals, I want to repay her for everything I did yesterday and today.

    “Brother, you said you came here to get treatment for an arm injury, right?”

    “Yes.”

    “Then, since I need to check the wound before meeting with the high-ranking healing priest, could you show me the affected area for a moment?”

    “Of course.”

    There is no omnipotent power like divine power in this world. Instead, there is light magic specialized for recovery.

    Also, the light attribute magicians of the Kingdom Church are far inferior to the healing magicians at the main church of the Empire. Well, the reason is not something that needs to be explained now, so I’ll skip it.

    Anyway, since there was no one in the kingdom who could heal my arm, I had been neglecting this wound without treatment. and.

    “… Oh my god, the magic circuit was completely burned. Is this black magic? By any chance, are you a black magician?”

    “Yes. Yes.”

    “Oh my. You are young, but you must have gone through a lot of hardships.”

    “No, it wasn’t that hard.”

    “Haha. Is that so? If that were the case, it would mean that the Lord’s mercy protected you. Well then, let’s briefly check the affected area using light magic and make an appointment for treatment from a high-ranking priest.”

    “Yes, please.”

    It’s like this. Black magicians are ostracized beings.

    It is discriminatory content that even faithful church members who treat everyone equally before God, who treated everyone equally before God, immediately think of it and say it out loud, and it proves that people who are injured by black magic are often dumped without proper treatment. It’s a story.

    In fact, after being transported to the Kingdom Church and hearing that I was a black magician, the guys at that church checked the affected area and immediately said, ‘We can’t treat you here. But now that I’ve seen the diagnosis, I’m asking for donations.’ I almost threw it away.

    Of course, this also happened because the kingdom was a little more discriminatory when it came to black magic.

    This can be seen in the fact that the people in the imperial church in front of me have sympathy for my situation rather than rejecting it. of course.

    ‘I don’t feel very good about being immediately pitied for being a black magician.’

    However, this does not mean that I have a bad opinion of the priest who is treating me in front of me.

    It’s better to be pitied than to be ostracized, and it helps people make a living, and if you don’t look at it crookedly, the way they carefully check their wounds is just something to be thankful for.

    As I was absentmindedly reconfirming the position of a black magician and receiving a diagnosis, the priest who had poured light magic into my body for several minutes frowned slightly and opened his mouth.

    “Brother, I think I have to tell you a sad story.”

    “What is it?”

    “Well, you can treat this wound first. One week will be enough to move your arm with outpatient treatment.”

    “I see. But that sounds like a good story, but what is the sad story?”

    “… I think you know the sad story. This is a story about the magic circuit, which is the magician’s life.”

    Well, that’s what I expected. The priest seemed to be truly sorry and said that my magic circuit had been burned to the point of no recovery and that it would never be able to be restored.

    Really, it can never be recovered unless you get help from God. There I am.

    “It’s okay. I have to be satisfied with my arms moving. As the priest said earlier, God took care of me, so I think this is the end.”

    “… Amen.”

    When I answered with a grin, he squeezed my arm so that it didn’t hurt and began to pray softly.

    Really, they are a world away from the Church of the Kingdom.

    I hope the kingdom guys can learn something from the priest in front of them who calls me a poor little lamb and prays for him to look after me.

    “Then, in order to quickly ease your pain, I will guide you directly to the high priest.”

    “Yes? Didn’t you make a reservation first?”

    “It should be so, but I can confirm that you are probably going through tremendous pain right now. Even talking to me like this must be painful, but wouldn’t it be the duty of a priest who claims to be a shepherd who receives the word of God and guides him to suffer any more than this, a brother who says that the Lord has protected him?”

    Wow, honestly, I didn’t expect you to take care of me this much. I was a little embarrassed, but I also felt sorry for ignoring his consideration, so I immediately continued with what I needed to say.

    “Thank you so much. I think it was truly the Lord’s arrangement that I was able to meet someone like you. So, before I see you, High Priest, would you give me time to say a prayer of thanks for today’s arrangements?”

    “Oh! If you, my faithful brother, so wish, I will prepare it for you. Fortunately, this healing center has many spaces where patients can quietly pray. Then, I will guide you there first.”

    Guided by a priest who treated me with great courtesy, I was able to enter the private prayer room for patients.

    I don’t think so, but this isn’t something that the god who reincarnated me really arranged, right?

    Thinking thoughts that make me slightly doubt God, I hang down my motionless arms, kneel down, and bow my head. and.

    “I don’t know what I should pray for for him to come out, so I’m just saying this. I hope that that kind person wasn’t someone who was considerate of me because he was brainwashed by your arrangement. If that’s the case, I think I’ll be a little disillusioned with humans and you.”

    “… This is absurd. I can’t believe I felt disillusioned after receiving consideration. Well, to begin with, most of the children in the Imperial Church are faithful and good children. So there is no need for you to feel disillusioned.”

    A magnificent voice that seemed to respond directly to my words struck my ears, and I immediately raised my head.

    What came into my sight was not a narrow prayer room, but a huge space covered with pure white clouds, and a huge grandfather about 5 meters tall that seemed to overwhelm the space.

    “It’s been a while. God.”

    “Okay, 21 years have passed since you reincarnated. Have you been healthy so far?”

    Seeing him smiling at me kindly and with a slightly amused smile, I smiled back.

    “If both arms are crippled but appear to be healthy, I think God’s eye health is not improving.”

    At my polite greeting, Shin burst out in empty laughter.
