Chapter 217 – Year-End Party

Episode 217 – Year-end party

‘Paladin?’

I was taken aback by the unexpected words.

Not only me, but Deborah and even the saint widen their eyes in surprise.

“Ah, a paladin?”

“Okay. All possessed people have special abilities. That is the power given by the goddess. “Ability created in the most appropriate form for the target.”

“Adequate ability…”

Deborah’s eyes turned to me.

Her eyes were full of questions, wondering what on earth I had done that made rape the best skill for her.

Since the situation before the possession was not explained to Deborah, she is justified in doing that.

However, I am also curious.

‘You believe it’s true that you were falsely accused?’

Although he may be a great rapist now, at the time he was nothing more than a victim who had been wrongly accused.

But does this mean that the goddess recognized me as a rapist?

Fortunately, such questions were resolved through the Pope’s following answer.

“The problem is that Nephelina, the goddess of darkness, intervened in the process.”

“Goddess of Darkness… “Nephelina?”

“Okay. Yes Felina played her part just as Refenti Anim was about to summon the possessed. Thanks to you, a lot of things have changed. “Those who should come were left out, and those who should not have come came. “

“For those who can’t do it…”

“Originally, Repentia would have chosen good and just people. Nephelina arbitrarily changed them into vicious criminals. “Isn’t it obvious what they will do with their powerful power?”

What the Pope said was not entirely wrong.

What I saw from the first day of possession was the possessor who came to rape Alyssa using a poisonous drug.

And in the end, I too became a criminal to the point where I thought rape was nothing, even though it was due to my environment.

But there are definitely some who are not.

For example, Pernia is still with Abel and his group and is cooperating with them, even though he strayed slightly along the way.

Kenneth only slaughtered monsters and never harmed the people of the continent.

Deborah expressed my thoughts on my behalf.

“But there is no guarantee that a person will commit a crime. “What if there are innocent people?”

“That’s why we have to find out as soon as possible. If such people fall into the hands of the Dark Church, it will be a big problem. In fact, the golden ghost, an apostle, is currently the biggest threat to the church. The church must prevent the second and third golden ghosts from being born.”

There is nothing to refute.

Getting angry here is no different from being possessed.

Above all, I am not angry either.

‘As long as I don’t get caught.’

I’m going to get to know the Pope in earnest. All I have to do is maintain a close relationship with her saint and extract information about the church.

Sometimes, they even cause confusion by reporting false information.

“Hmm! Anyway, that’s about all the information about the possessors. Anything more than this is really difficult. Please understand.”

“That’s enough. Thanks to you, I learned a lot. Thank you.”

“Haha! There’s no need for that. Isn’t this a sign of apology? Do you have anything else to ask? Somehow I ended up skipping it.”

I was troubled for a moment by the Pope’s words.

‘What should I ask?’

It’s difficult to ask anymore about confidential information, but when I asked about other things, there wasn’t anything that immediately came to mind.

It was then that a new image outside the window caught my eye while I was racking my brain.

‘Oh, there was that?’

There was one thing I was curious about about the goddess.

I immediately asked the Pope.

“His Holiness the Pope. Have you ever actually seen the goddess?”

“Haha! Did you mean the goddess? The goddess is busy preventing Nephelina from coming. There is no time to appear in Middle Earth.”

“Is that so? It’s a shame.”

“Do you really want to see the goddess? “Can I ask why?”

“Yeah…”

I turned my head and stared at the statue.

Delicate and gorgeous features. Overwhelmingly large breasts, a slim waist, and a wide hips that can rival those of a saint. And even fleshy thighs and slender calves.

She had such an incredible appearance that one could say she was not a goddess of light, but a goddess of beauty.

So much so that every man living on this continent wants to see it at least once.

“It’s pretty.”

“What? Haha! Okay. The goddess is beautiful. It would be nice to be able to see it someday.”

“I’m also curious about whether you actually look exactly like that statue.”

I want to check if it is the father of the craftsman who made the statue, or if it is really that pretty.

The Pope smiled at my words and told a bundle of stories.

“You don’t have to worry about that. Malicent, the craftsman who carved the statue, even said that he could not express the beauty of the goddess with his own skills. She won’t be disappointed.”

“That’s a good thing. Thank you for answering such a trivial question.”

“Haha! At all. It’s actually nice because I feel like I’m getting younger too. Well then, let’s enjoy the party now. “I have to go too.”

“Yes. Enjoyed. “His Holiness the Pope.”

The Pope said a brief greeting and then disappeared with the Paladin.

Afterwards, the saint led us.

“Then shall we go to the party hall now? There are a lot of delicious foods, so you better look forward to it!”

“Yes. Then let’s go.”

It was just after leaving the cathedral.

“Oh? Holy woman. Are you coming out now?”

A woman decked out in extravagant makeup and accessories that made it hard to believe she was a priest approached.

Unfortunately, even though she puts on a lot of effort, she cannot match the beauty of a saint without any makeup.

Her saint welcomed her warmly.

“Cardinal Karen! It’s been a while!”

“Yes. Even the saint. But who are the two people next to you? “Can you introduce me?”

“Ah! The man here is Prince Ruan Friuli. The woman is Miss Deborah. I am a disciple of the famous Gray Magic Tower Lord.”

“Oh my goodness! You said so. Please take care of me. “I’m Cardinal Karen.”

After shaking hands with Deborah, Karen walked up to me.

I looked at her from afar.

‘When will I kill him?’

I’m not saying this because I’m a psychopath, but because Karen is a person worth killing.

This is because she is in cahoots with the Dark Church and will later make a contract with Lilith, the great demon of lust.

She will betray the church and inflict a huge blow, so it is beneficial to deal with her in advance.

This woman must have been the one who leaked our information to the succubi during the last undercover investigation in the first place.

I put on a benevolent smile on the outside while adjusting the timing in my head.

“Nice to meet you. “This is Ruan Friuli.”

“Ho Ho! Is Friuli the child of Byun Gangbaek? “You’re so handsome.”

“Thank you for the compliment. “The cardinal is also beautiful.”

“Thank you. Well then, I’m busy so I’ll just leave. Holy woman. See you next time.”

“Yes! Take a look!”

The saint never dreamed that Karen would be a traitor, and she waved her hand brightly to see him off.

She tilted her head as Karen disappeared.

“Weird. “Why did you go right away today?”

“Why? What did you usually do?”

“He asks me to go shopping with him every day. Why don’t you dress up and go around? He said he would also teach him how to apply makeup.”

“… Aha.”

It seems that Carlen wanted to shorten the distance between her and the saint in advance.

Once you get close, you can do anything.

But the reason I just left now is probably because of Deborah.

It was only for a moment, but I saw Karl Len’s face distort as he looked at Deborah and her saint.

Perhaps she hoped that such a handsome and wonderful young man would not compare herself, her aunt, with her plump pretty girls with her.

I completely understand that feeling.

“Heh!”

As I smiled and nodded her head in satisfaction, the saint tugged on her collar.

“Young master. Stop acting weird and go. “I’m going to be late to the party.”

“Yes? What strange thing did I do…”

“Come on! Hurry up!”

“Uh, uh, uh!”

I was dragged by her saint and moved to the party venue.

*

After lunch and a quick tea time, we finally headed to the orphanage.

In front of it, there were a lot of orphanage directors and students waiting in advance.

“Wow! “Saint!”

“I missed you!”

“Hello!”

Regardless of gender or age, children welcomed her with enthusiasm.

The director of the daycare center quickly stepped forward to stop the children.

“Saint. Welcome. Thank you for coming here every year.”

“What! I’m coming because I want to come. Today, other people came with us. These are the people who agreed to help!”

The director of the orphanage focused on us.

Skin wrinkled by the passage of time and eyes filled with virtuous wisdom from countless experiences.

Her appearance was reminiscent of figures such as Mother Teresa that we only see in exhibitions of great people.

“Hello. My name is Ruan Friuli. “I hope you have a good day today.”

“My name is Deborah. Please take care of me!”

“Please take care of me too. If you’re having a hard time, let me know in advance. “It will be very difficult because the children are so energetic.”

The gentle voice relieves the tension that she had built up knowingly or unknowingly after meeting the Pope.

At that time, the saint intervened.

“More than that, the director of the orphanage. I’ve prepared a cake, what should I do? Would you like to eat now?”

“… “Cake?”

“Yes. Don’t worry, the food was really delicious today!”

A saintly woman proudly sticking out her breasts.

In contrast to her, the daycare director’s face her became slightly stiff.

Her saintly cake her must be so bad that even she, who reminds her of Mother Teresa, gives a straight look.

The director of the orphanage quickly made an excuse.

“Okay, let’s eat the cake later. It hasn’t been long since we had lunch. “It’s play time now, so let’s eat when the kids are hungry.”

─Aaaaah…

As soon as the orphanage director finished speaking, sighs rang out from all around.

The faces of the orphanage students all bore deep frustration. I feel hopeless that I have to taste that horrible food again.

The light also disappeared from the eyes of the female student who had been looking at her all the time, as if she was admiring the saint.

But I didn’t necessarily say things were different this time.

In fact, twists are only powerful when they are unexpected.

Let’s look forward to the reaction then.

“Young master! Deborah. You two play with the kids here. “I’ll bring the cake in.”

“Yes. “Go ahead.”

The saint entered the building whispering with the director of the orphanage.

When the suppressor disappeared, it was the children who suffered.

“And! Sister! Is your name Deborah? It’s pretty!”

“Your eyes are like stars! “It’s sparkling!”

“Do you have a boyfriend? If not, would you like to date me?”

The boys fell in love with Deborah at first sight and flirted with her.

“Brother!” Are you a noble by any chance?”

“So handsome! He seems like a bad guy!”

“Do you have girl friend? “Can I run as a candidate?”

The girls also tried to stay by my side, just with a slightly softer tone.

This is why it’s not good to be too handsome.

‘It’s difficult.’

I shook my head and felt a sense of superiority, then stretched out my hand and pulled Deborah in.

“Oh! Lu, Luan?”

To her surprise her, he took her in his her arms her and rested her chin on his her shoulder her.

“Hey guys. Let’s get together. So sorry. “Understand, right?”

─Ahh…

A sigh fell again.

However, he expressed doubts about whether there are rebel people among children.

“That’s not a lie?”

It was a boy of about 15 years old.

At that age, you are treated like an adult in this world. There are quite a few people who get married as early as that time.

I turned my head and faced Deborah.

“Deborah. “I have doubts, what should I do?”

“Yes?”

“I guess I’ll have to show you evidence?”

“Tsk… ! W-what…”

“Here.”

I lightly tapped my lips.

Deborah, who understood the meaning, blushed, conscious of the children’s gaze, then carefully closed her eyes and kissed him.

The boy who was suspicious saw the scene and immediately ran away in tears.

It is my victory.

‘Who dare you covet?’

I am Luan Friuli.

Even if they are children, they will not back down if they start a fight.
