Chapter 719 – #020. Priest of Darkness, Kaya Levantein (12).
#020. Dark Priest, Kaya Levantane.
Sylvia’s husband is alive.
How should I use this to spread rumors that I have used it well?
I had a lot of worries.
‘It’s a fact that I started a new life.’
I didn’t intervene.
Daniel himself chose the future.
To abandon her wife in her hometown and live with Jane.
“Peace evangelist, my name is Ryan.”
“… Are you a peace missionary?”
Jane looks at me suspiciously.
But she didn’t kick out.
After all, it’s a guest situation.
“I am preaching peace. Can I come in for a minute?”
I accepted permission with a smile as benign as possible.
With a reluctant face, Jane forced herself to nod her head.
“Come on in.”
“Thank you, excuse me.”
Jane’s house.
Not sure if it’s for sale or lease, but it’s probably a lease.
Jane and Daniel lived in the smallest house in the small town of Noarg.
Two-story detached house located on the outskirts.
The walls are shabby and very old.
Even on the inside, the age was felt.
I can see that the two of them didn’t have many options to choose from.
“Jane?”
A voice came from the bedroom.
Maybe it was because the walls were thin, I could hear it just as well as if I was speaking right next to me.
There was tension in Daniel’s voice.
And there was no strength.
It is fortunate that the war ended, but as individuals, irreparable damage was received.
There was no way the tension would be good in a situation where I couldn’t do anything alone.
Paraplegia.
It was one of the cards I could play against Daniel.
Just as Kaya was subdued by the resurrection of the dead.
“Mr. Ryan… ? Can I come and see her husband for a minute? I think you are worried.”
“Yes, it is fine.”
The atmosphere of the city itself is desolate.
Unlike rural villages where neighbors share the same pain, it feels heartless.
Jane entered the room, wary of me.
I could feel the bustle of movement inside.
Are there wheelchairs in this world?
But it was expensive
It was not an easy price for a commoner to obtain.
Daniel did not have a wheelchair.
Daniel was living because he couldn’t really die.
Inspired by Jane’s words that she liked living, she leaned entirely on her and said her words.
‘It should work well.’
I was curious.
What choice would Daniel make if asked to cooperate in eating Sylvia in exchange for fixing his leg?
I sighed and went into Daniel’s room.
When I suddenly entered, two people looked at me with bewildered faces.
Vigilance was raised to the maximum.
Seeing the two people blatantly wary, I smiled brightly.
“I would like to make a proposal to you two.”
Daniel didn’t even answer and wrinkled his face.
It wasn’t like he was listening to me.
Well, it’s practically the same as being alone with Jane.
Even if I was in the position of a man, I think I would have set myself up.
Daniel’s reaction was close to instinct.
A male’s instinct not to want his female taken away.
“Mr. Daniel.”
“… !”
At the mention of the name, Daniel’s eyes widened.
Daniel glared at me with a look of surprise on his face.
“I-I don’t know you. How do you know me!”
His voice is trembling because of anxiety.
“I would like to give Daniel a good suggestion. Please listen to me for once.”
I brought a chair to the room and sat down.
“Mr. Daniel is in a state of disrepair right now, right? I know he can’t use his legs.”
“…”
Daniel doesn’t deny it.
No one would believe me even if I barked out that I couldn’t even get out of bed.
Even children won’t believe it.
“What if I told you I could fix Daniel’s leg? Do you think you will be inclined to listen to my proposal?”
“… What?”
Disbelief crept into Daniel’s eyes.
Daniel glared at me with the eyes of a con man.
“Even the church priests couldn’t fix my leg. But are you able? Her…”
Daniel laughed and rolled his eyes.
“Get off now!”
“I will give you at least a tasting experience. I think that would make the language work.”
In the yard where even the dead are brought back to life, it’s about fixing a crippled leg.
It was nothing really.
“Get up.”
“Stop the bullshit… ?”
Daniel, who was about to scream, slips his leg.
He groped his leg with a questioning look on his face.
Jane hugged Daniel and asked in a worried voice.
“Daniel? Are you okay?”
“… No, wait…”
Sensation returned to Daniel’s legs.
I could actually walk.
Daniel will instinctively feel it.
The condition of the bridge now is the condition before it was broken.
“Daniel?”
Daniel hastily pushed Jane away and pulled up the bed covers.
And he stood on the floor alone.
“Daniel?!”
Daniel was performing a miracle.
Seeing the scene with her own two eyes, Jane covered her mouth in awe of her emotions and let her tears flow.
I said to Daniel.
“Are you interested in hearing an offer? Depending on Daniel’s choice, it may remain that way or it may end as a dream.”
I was convinced by the look on Daniel’s face.
He will do whatever I want.
Even if what I want is a wife, he will pretend to be hesitant and let it go.
“… Now, let’s listen.”
Daniel’s tone became polite.
It seemed that he felt dignity from the peace missionary who performed miracles.
“I’ll get to the point quickly. Wouldn’t it be better for Daniel to do the same?”
You will want to have a healthy body as soon as possible, even for one minute and one second.
I don’t know what my proposal is, I don’t know if it’s possible or not, but anyway.
“Daniel has something I want.”
“… Me, me?”
Daniel asks in disbelief.
“I have nothing, priest. Perhaps you’ve misunderstood…”
“Sylvia.”
“… !”
Sylvia’s heart is now on Daniel.
Although I’m not sure if it was her love for her husband or a sense of debt driven by her sense of duty.
As long as the option of committing a crime by force was ruled out, Daniel’s help was essential.
Daniel was needed to deter Sylvia.
“… Poem, Sylvia is my wife. Exactly, my ex-wife.”
Daniel glanced at Jane by her side and corrected her.
There was a slight hesitation in his voice.
‘I was forced to stay here because of my legs.’
Maybe she just meant to die.
If you can’t do your part, you’ll be a burden to the rest.
“I will be straightforward. Daniel, help me hold Sylvia.”
“!”
She didn’t have to procrastinate.
I can give Daniel what he wants and he has what I want.
There was no reason to waste your mental energy by judging each other.
Daniel replied in a trembling voice.
“Sir, what the hell are you asking me to help you hold Sylvia… In the first place, it doesn’t seem like it’s a matter for me to decide…”
“Yes, it is a matter for Sylvia to decide. But Sylvia is waiting for Daniel. She believes she will be alive.”
“Sir, Sylvia sent me… !”
Her wife is waiting for her chastity.
These were the heartbreaking words of her husband, who was determined to die in her own country.
Daniel is making a moved expression even though Jane is next to him.
I sprinkled ashes on Daniel’s heart.
“Sylvia is pretty. I think her big hips will give birth to her baby in good health.”
“… Uh, what…”
“I need Daniel’s help. Please help Sylvia give up her heart.”
Daniel, who was taken aback by the sudden situation, immediately checked my expression and distorted his face.
He was getting angry, as if he realized that I meant it.
“This is Sylvia’s life. I can’t interfere.”
“It’s selfish.”
“Don’t insult Sylvia. She was my wife until I went to war.”
Before, it seemed like he would listen to anything.
But now he was glaring at me as if he couldn’t hear me.
Attitude changed in an instant.
“I guess he did love Sylvia.”
“Yes, your offer is unacceptable.”
Daniel said confidently.
He was looking down at me as I sat on the subject of standing on the floor with my own strength.
“Hehe.”
Facing his guest, I unknowingly burst into laughter.
It was funny.
I wonder how long that will last.
If you wait a few days, you will know his true feelings.
How precious Sylvia is to him.
I look forward to it.
“I knew. Daniel rejected the offer, so I’m leaving.”
To come back tomorrow
I made that decision and got out of Jane’s house.
Daniel collapsed on the bed again after a while.
It happened as soon as I got my strength.
