I decided to meet the priest person. I knew that I might have to kill the priests, but I still wanted to see them more than not. So I decided to go before the priests.
Of course, I was not alone. There were many more people at my side than those two, including Dong, Lan, and the elves. In addition, there was Cifo, Camicha, and Frene.
Frenet and Dong were the first to appear in front of the priests.
The swordsman was probably still unable to see Frenet. They did not look at Frenet at all. He just looked at Mr. Dong as if he was wary of him. On the contrary, the priest looked at Fulene with his eyes wide open. After all, he can see Frenet.
Who---what are you!"
'...... wait a minute. Mr. Shehan, I have one question for you.
What are you taking so long ...... at a time like this!
I see a girl, but you don't see her?
A girl? What are you talking about ......? I see only a man with a beast in front of him.
The girl, he said firmly. The priestess can see Fresno clearly. He recognizes Frenet.
Frene glances at me. I nod, and Frene appears for all to see. The woman's eyes are wide open. She is reaching for the long sword at her waist.
For both the swordsman and the priestess, Dong and Frenet are mysterious beings who suddenly appeared. They may have no idea whether they are enemies or allies. Therefore, the swordsman's response was more natural. But the priest does not have that kind of expression on his face. What was in the priest's eyes was more like joy.
He said, "--- an existence that is invisible to man. Something that is not a person. Are you a spirit?
The priest looks at Frenet. He looks at her with envy.
'And what if you are?
'I have never seen a genie before. I am honored to meet you.'
'So ......'
"Well, Spirit-sama. I have a question for you, Spirit-sama, do you know Kamiko-sama?
The priest man, who was gazing with sparkling eyes at Frene, the spirit, told him so.
What are you going to do when you find the Goddess?"
Both Mr. Dong and the swordsman were watching their conversation closely. I, too, was listening to them, trying to hear their answer.
What would that priest say? What does he want, what is he seeking, and why is he looking for me? Depending on the answer, I cannot let them leave. Such a choice is frightening and I would not want to make it if I could, but for the sake of our future, we must have that kind of resolve and choice.
I put my hands together and wait for the answer from the priest person as I pray.
'---- I am on a mission from my country to bring back a real priestess.'
When I heard those words, I almost despaired for a moment. Oh, I thought, maybe I can't bring him back alive. But the priest continued.
He said, "I am not going to carry out the mission of ----. I am a servant of God. That is why I do not want to do anything that goes against the will of the Divine Son, who is considered to be the beloved Son of God. The Divine Child-sama may not wish to be protected by the High Priestess. It is because I have come to that realization that I do not wish to do so. As a servant of God, I wish to do as God wills, and to follow the will of the Divine Son-sama."
The priest said.
The real Kamiko-sama, the priest said. Did this mean that the high priestess had decided that the sister was not a goddess? And I don't know on what basis they are looking for me or how they got here, but they are looking for me.
And although he had received a mission, he had no intention of carrying it out, the priest looked Frenet in the eye and told him straight out.
He says, "---- I want to serve the Divine Child-sama. I want to serve as a priest next to the Divine Child-sama. So, if you know Kamiko-sama, please let me know. I will never do anything to offend you. I will give everything I have, including my life, to the Priestess, so please tell me."
The priest said this, seemingly convinced that Frenet knew about me. ......That is still a heavy thing to offer everything, including your life. I don't want to accept such a heavy thing because I'm afraid of it.
So......."
Frenet nodded at those words. The first thing to do is to make sure that you have the right tools to do the job. I --- stepped in front of the priests. A number of us who had been hiding came out, and although the swordsmen's faces were stiff, the priests' eyes lit up as they rushed toward me.
'It is an honor to meet you! Kamiko-sama!!!!"
And without hesitation, he shouted those words.
---The girl and the priest 1
(Perhaps, the girl who is a goddess steps out in front of the priest. And he called out to her as if he was sure she was a priestess)
