Chapter 15: 15

Chapter 15

Translated by lipzoldyck

 

It was really difficult to get permission from Reihausd to go out. It’s the money I earned as if I was walking on thin ice, but I can’t believe they’re talking about donating!

 

“Excuse me, Gods.” I exclaimed. “Isn’t this too much?”

 

[The God of Art, Mond, shuts his mouth firmly.]

 

[The God of Knowledge, Hessed, looks elsewhere.]

 

[The God of Love, Odyssey, pretends not to hear.]

 

I stared at the still floating chat window for a long time.

 

[Are you sure you want to donate all the money in the All-purpose Pocket?

 

(Yes/No)]

 

For a while, I thought about whether I should give up on this hidden mission. As expected, because I felt like money was going to be wasted.

 

“…”

 

But after a while, I had a thought.

 

‘Why are they suddenly asking for a donation?’

 

Is it because the three Gods are tormenting me?

 

No. By now, they have helped me all the way throughout the oracle. Like my guardian deity at every moment.

 

‘Then it wouldn’t be bad for me, would it?’

 

They looked a little childish, but they weren’t bad Gods.

 

I made up my mind again.

 

‘Yes. After all, I can make money quickly…’

 

“Yes.”

 

As I pointed to ‘Yes’ with my hand, the red pocket I was holding lit up. And the funds in the inventory were changed to 0 franc.

 

I couldn’t hide my disappointment, but I waited for a change.

 

After a while, a new window appeared.

 

[You have demonstrated your sincerity by giving what is most valuable to you in the present.]

 

[The three Gods have agreed to unlock your sacred power.]

 

[Pure sacred power resides in the body of the one chosen by the Gods.]

 

[‘Sacred Power’ is unlocked.]

 

A dark golden light shone like the wind around my body and began to spin around. I slowly reached out to the band of gold. It felt warm when the golden light touched my finger. It was like basking in the heat of a fireplace.

 

The golden glow that wrapped around my body several times began to fade.

 

And the fact that it was being absorbed into me could be seen through the skin all over my body. It felt like a warm blanket was rolling over my body.

 

When the brilliance had completely disappeared, a warm aura wafted around my heart.

 

I reached out and looked at my palm.

 

‘…Hm? Wait.’

 

It was an empty palm, no different from before. Even the warmth of my heart was gradually cooling down.

 

I muttered in a puzzled voice.

 

“What is it, is this right?”

 

As if everything had been an illusion for a while, the current state was tno different from before.

 

Just when I doubted that they were only taking my 500 franc in the name of a donation, a chat window popped up.

 

[The ‘God of Love, Odyssey’ congratulates you on the opening of your sacred power and blesses you.]

 

[The ‘God of Knowledge, Hessed’ congratulates you on the opening of your sacred power and blesses you.]

 

[The ‘God of Art, Mond’ congratulates you on the opening of your sacred power and blesses you.]

 

The wind started to blow over me again.

 

The feeling similar to when I received a blessing from Hessed was subtly different.

 

If at that time it felt like the wind was blowing towards me, it would be more accurate to express it as the feeling of being strongly inhaling the wind that is blowing right now. Like a black hole.

 

The wind tangled and the blessings of the Gods surrounded me then flowed into me.

 

Closing my eyes for a moment and tasting the feeling, I raised my eyelashes.

 

First of all, I felt the blessing of Hessed, and my head became very clear as I had experienced before. No, it was clearer than it was back then. I feel smart enough to chew through dozens of books.

 

Next, I felt like my eyes were opening.

 

The interior that I thought was quite luxurious suddenly looks tacky, and I can see the detailed grooves and scratches of the chandelier, which is the blessing of Mond… Maybe it was close to a side effect. Seeing the dust on the vase feels so annoying.

 

‘By the way, didn’t Odyssey also give a blessing?’

 

I felt the energy of blessings in my body again, but I didn’t feel the energy of blessing related to love.

 

“…Hm?”

Well, since I don’t know anyone who loves me and I don’t know love, I thought that the blessing might not be applicable.

 

Anyway, my condition, blessed by the Gods, has risen to the very best.

 

With my head cleared, I opened the thickest dictionary among the mountains of books on my desk. It was to find the ‘sacred power’ I had seen earlier.

 

I had to find out what it was as it was the ability I had.

 

“I found it.”

 

Fortunately, there was a page about sacred power, so I opened it. And I started to read quickly from the first line.

 

[The power that priests use is called divine power, and the power that a saintess uses is called holy power. Because of these terms, it is easy to misunderstand the meaning of sacred power, which is a completely separate term from this concept.

 

Divine power and holy power can be said to be the Gods pouring of power into a small and large bowl of water. The divine power is usually in a small bowl of water for humans, and the holy power is in the large bowl of the saintess who is the only servant of the Gods.

 

However, the sacred power is like connecting a large tube between the Gods and humans, so one can use enormous amounts of power as if it were a God’s agent.

 

And the first and last person in history to use  the concept of sacred power was the First Saintess, Bergheritta.]

 

The First Saintess, Bergheritta, who existed 500 years ago, was something I saw in the book at first glance.

 

The Saintess who rebuilt a devastated empire with the First Emperor, wiped the tears of those who lost their home, and raised the orphans with her own hands.

 

Her contribution was great in establishing the theocracy and the monarchy as the two major mountain ranges in the Empire.

 

‘But the sacred power… It’s like a faucet connected to the Gods?’

 

It is said that it was a different kind of power from the ‘holy power’ used by other saints in general.

 

The water that spills out when I turn on the faucet suddenly came to my mind.

 

‘Haha, no way.’

 

I’m a fake saintess.

 

‘It’s strange that I, who has to step aside when the real saintess appears, use the immense power of sacred power.’

 

That’s ridiculous.

 

In fact, after possessing Ariel’s body, it has been a series of nonsensical things.

 

It was the moment when I closed the book and opened my hand, which had been soaked with holy power, again with doubtful eyes.

 

Knock, knock, just in time, a knock was heard.

 

“Come in.”

 

The door opened and Reihausd entered.

 

As always, he was still handsome in his white uniform, a priest’s uniform. His blonde hair was well-groomed, and his presence alone made him look like a divine angel who came down from heaven.

 

But the fear planted after seeing him kill Annie reflexively made my fingertips tremble the moment I saw him.

 

My eyes keep falling on the long sword worn around his waist.

 

“I apologize. I thought you were Daisy.”

 

I apologized to him for being rude. But he stood silently at the door as if my apology hadn’t been heard. without saying anything.

 

“…”

 

“…”

 

And so a long silence began.

 

Why did he suddenly come into my room?

 

Maybe Dwayne said something to him.

 

It seems like I’m collecting money by selling my auctioned dagger at a high price, or it seems like I’m preparing for a night escape…

 

Since he was a paladin under the High Priest, it was strange not to report to him.

 

The silence grew deeper and deeper. And I was starting to get a little nervous.

 

As Annie’s face, who had been dying without a scream, came to mind, and my eyes fell on the handle of his sword again, he took a step. He then started coming towards me slowly.

 

“…”

 

As Reihausd stopped in front of me, I looked at him with a slightly nervous expression.

  

 

I couldn’t analyze what he was thinking in his dark gold eyes, even if Hessed’s blessing had come.

 

After a while he opened his lips.

 

“You can do it.”

 

I was startled for a moment by the low voice coming from his red lips. As I looked at him with unfamiliar eyes, he spoke again.

 

“Speak informally.”

 

At that, I looked at him in amazement.

 

What did this scary man say?

 

However, his complexion was somewhat strange.

 

‘…Were Reihausd’s cheeks so red in the first place?’
