Chapter 210 – Main Unit (4)
I came out of the audience room only after receiving a promise to rent the chapel for the day tomorrow.
Albaor and Gilbert stayed in the audience room to see if they had something to share about the return of the priests who had been dispatched.
Instead, Helena agreed to escort us to the VIP room.
I have a lot of questions, but I can’t bear to ask them here. He tugged at the cheek of Iris, who had been muttering ever since.
Hehe!”
“Whoa…”
For some reason, seeing Iris flutter or her screams calms her heart.
After confirming that Iris, who was in tears, rushed to Elisha and hugged her, he looked in front of her.
A neat black nun’s uniform. However, the curved buttocks seemed to be impossible to hide at this level.
My eyes go unnoticed by the side opening that sneaks up on me with every step.
… I remember playing nuns with Fay.
Shaking her head to get rid of her thoughts, she spoke to Helena, who was staggering as if her strength had gone.
“Hey, Miss Helena?”
“Yes? What’s the matter, brother?”
He responds with the same voice as usual, but for some reason his complexion is pale.
“No. That. I want to make sure you’re okay.”
“Um… It’s not okay to be honest.”
Helena nodded her head with a vague smile.
“First of all, it’s embarrassing that I had a strange misunderstanding, but all of a sudden, the brother told me a secret that even I, a candidate for sainthood, didn’t know. And at the end, he even said that he would recommend me as a saint… To be honest, I’m too crazy.”
“Aha? It can be.”
I don’t know if it’s an appropriate example, but doesn’t it feel like newbies have heard of conversations mixed with spoilers while guessing the setting of deceased characters? Of course it’s bound to be confusing.
While I hesitate for a while Helena smiled awkwardly and continued her words.
“Whoops… Brother Yandel asked to join the party in exchange for the medallion, right?”
“Yes. Apparently, there are only wizards now, so I needed a priest.”
“There must be many other talented people, but why did you pick on me… It seems that you intended to make me a saint from the beginning. Maybe you even approached me…”
“That…”
As she hesitated for the moment, Helena smiled and shook her head.
“Ah. A little while ago, I said it as if I was blaming the brother too much. The opposite is true. It was just because I wasn’t sure if I was fit for the position of a saint. … There have been a lot of things lately.”
“Are you always avoiding me when it comes to things like this?”
“Eww… Yes.”
Helena nodding her head with her face flushed red.
She shrugged her shoulders at such Helena and trembled.
“Don’t worry too much about that part. I don’t want Helena to become a saint, but I have to be chosen by the righteous Kwangmyeong-nim, right?”
“The righteous light…”
“Yes. A saintess is an apostle of God. He is the closest being to God, his spokesperson, and his alter ego. She and she are also the first daughter. No matter how much I ask, in the end the decision is made by the righteous Light.”
Well, if it was Helena, she would be appointed as a saint without any problems.
In addition to Helena, there are two more candidates for Saints in the Church of Light. In H&A, depending on the choice, they could have been made into saints.
But there is a huge difference between the other two and Helena.
Only after the two resolve their problems through individual episodes do they attain a kind of enlightenment and acquire the qualities of a saint.
On the other hand, Helena fulfills the qualities of a saint from the beginning.
The most important thing for an apostle of God is neither military force, nor the amount of divine power, nor deep faith.
These three are also important, but when you become an apostle, you are directly connected to God, so they follow you on their own.
So the most important thing is how similar the way of thinking is.
A transcendent existence and spirit are connected, so many people feel a sense of discord here.
How to judge this is simple. Didn’t the gods of each denomination kindly leave their thoughts and wills in writing?
Gospel.
Beyond understanding and accepting the doctrine of the god served, one’s way of thinking itself must approach the doctrine.
That’s why I didn’t want to receive the apostleship.
There’s no such thing as mental breakdown or anything like that because it doesn’t fit, but it’s like having someone nagging you in your head 24 hours a day.
I have to live the rest of my life like a righteous light, half-forced, but that’s not enough.
Above all, the ability itself becomes ambiguous when you switch to a wizard techra saint.
But look at Helena.
That battle-junkie look, half-mindful when he sees cultists or monsters! Blind abhorrence of evil!
It is said that he can control himself to some extent now, but in the end, the essence does not change.
Isn’t the reason why he restrained himself in the first place to kill the enemy more efficiently?
It is said that all members of the righteous light of the light are screwed out and take a hard line against evil, but none are as sincere as Helena.
So, unless the other two candidates awaken on their own without my knowledge, Helena will be able to easily take her place as a saint.
The problem may be that even if the righteous Gwangmyeong confirmed her position as a saint, she would not have the strength to give it up.
… I have some thoughts on this side as well.
In the midst of reflecting on this and that plan. With a serious face, “The will of the righteous Kwangmyeong…” Helena, who muttered, nodded her head.
“Thank you, brother. I see. It is our Lord who judges what goes well with us, not me.”
“That’s it. So don’t worry too much about it, just go to the chapel tomorrow.”
“Yes!”
Helena’s face brightened.
Everyone else already knew something, but Helena really didn’t know anything, so she was a little worried.
From what I can see, it seems to be fine.
It took a while for her to raise the corner of her mouth in satisfaction.
Helena slowed her gait a little, then she looked back at us and opened her mouth.
“Sorry. I was supposed to guide you, but I just walked the road in silence, didn’t I? I’m going to briefly explain about this Great War from now on, would you mind?”
“Of course it is fine.”
“Me too… I had a lot of questions.”
“Good! Good! Shall I be the learner instead of the teacher today?”
Unlike Carla, Elisha, and Iris, who seemed to think a lot about this and that, Fay, who was just uncomfortable with the rigid atmosphere, quickly agreed.
Iona, who looked around innocently without thinking and admired her from time to time, clung to Helena’s side with admiration.
Helena was startled for a moment, but as if she didn’t like Iona’s positive attitude, she smiled softly and pointed to the paintings that filled the walls and ceiling of her corridor.
“As you might have guessed, the paintings in this corridor depict what happened during the War of the Gods. Originally, the story of how the righteous Kwangmyeong first met people and was established in the church was drawn, but even after the Great War was over, it was painted over with the meaning of not being negligent about evil spirits and cults.”
“Yep. It seemed so. There were several memorable scenes. For example there! Isn’t that the scene when the righteous Kwangmyeong-nim and the ugly Apostle of Prosperity are torn apart? I know because I fought there too! Vampires have a slightly different sex drive than normal, so it’s perfect for dealing with ugly flourishes!”
“Oh, I’ve heard of that too. Having always suffered from vampirism, he is resistant to mental attacks, and even if he stimulates his sexual desire, he can solve it immediately by drinking blood…”
“Clap clap clap! That’s right! Blood overflows the battlefield, so it should be considered immune to the powers of a high-ranking cultist! What… Since I became an apostle, it was beyond what I could handle, so my vampirism almost ran out of control.”
“The one who appeared at that time was the righteous Gwangmyeong.”
Iona making a nostalgic expression with her mouth clattering, and Helena proudly raising her arm and pointing at a corner of the painting.
Now, as Iona said, people who looked like vampires were holding their heads in agony.
And a huge white lion descended from the sky.
It subdues all miscellaneous enemies with one roar, and after a few fights, it simply rips off the wings of the incubus, which looks like an ugly apostle of prosperity.
After falling to the ground like that, he tore the incubus to shreds at the end of one-sided abuse.
Seonghwa would have exaggerated its own way, but… In reality, it won’t be much different.
Righteous Light is a particularly strong god, and Ugly Prosperity is a weak god in direct combat.
In addition, given the gap between the gods and the apostles, it was natural in a way.
While listening to Helena’s explanation, imagining the scene at the time.
“Uh?”
I stopped for a moment after seeing something painted in a corner of the torch.
“Ako… Why is that, Master?”
Carla, who bumped into her back while walking behind me, asked again while caressing her own nose, so she pointed to the place she had been looking a moment ago.
A woman who flutters her dark, blood-colored hair and skewers strange monsters.
“Isn’t that Professor Iona?”
“Oh… After listening to it, it definitely seems like a resemblance.”
Helena glanced at where my fingertips were pointing and nodded her head with a chuckle.
“Probably right. Professor Iona was famous at the time.”
“Lol… Saw? Saw? I’m this good, Yandel student!”
Iona strikes a strange pose and her eyes sparkle. It seems to be asking for praise or praise, but…
The point that surprised me is a little different.
“And… Seeing this, Professor Lee Ona is really old. Well, if you are 372 years old, round up to 400 years old, so this is where it is recorded.”
“… Is that you?!”
Iona expresses her surprise by jumping in her place.
Even after that, she looked for Iris and Iona, or listened to Helena, who had become the curator, and looked around the place in her place before arriving at her VIP room.
And the morning was bright.
The time has come for the first contact with the gods of this world.
