Chapter 78
I am Ferdinand. He is the chief priest at the temple in the town of Ehrenfest. It is often about 25 years old, and if it is not good, it is mistaken for about 30 years old, but it is 20 years old.
It is often said by half-brothers that young people are not enough or are dead, but that depends on the living environment.
I grew up in a noble society until I grew up. Although she was a child of Atago, she had enough magic power to handle the foundational magic tool, and what she said by herself, but she was good at studying rather than hard, so she was raised as a position to assist her half-brother. It was. Apart from my father’s wife, my friendship with my half-brother was not bad.
However, my wife seemed not to like me as an assistant to her half-brother, and after my father died, I began to be rejected. The adults in the power agreed with her wife’s opinion, the real mother did not count on it, and when she began to feel danger, she encouraged her half-brother to enter the temple.
Entry to the temple is nothing but a declaration of leaving the world of politics when viewed from the aristocratic society. However, the temple also has a close relationship with the world of politics because it uses magical powers to do things. The top of the temple is occupied by priests and shrine maidens from nobility, and the rank is a class society based on the status of their parents.
The half-brother ordered me laughing to seize the temple. The present temple head is a member of his wife’s parents’ family, and his attitude is large and troublesome, but he gave up his shoulders.
The days at the temple were calm. Some of them were working in finance, managing orphanages, or dealing with aristocrats. For this reason, there was no work and there was no spare time except to put magical power on the sacred items.
Since there was so much time left, I asked my half-brother to send me books and wooden cards that were in my parents’ house. I thought it would be nice to have a noble family whose economic situation was not good enough, so I arranged them in the library. However, the blue priests and shrine maidens in the temple were all those who could not return to aristocracy, and no one was interested in studying. It was sad that only the poor girl was interested in reading books.
And a political change occurred in the center, and the number of nobles drastically decreased. First, young apprentices who were able to attend the aristocracy were called back from their parents’ homes, and young priests and shrine maidens who were able to marry returned to the aristocracy. In addition, priests and shrine maidens who had some magical power even before the age of age were requested to move to the central temple.
There are no shrine maidens left in this temple now, and the priests are not old enough to return to their parents’ homes, and only those who are less than the amount of magic required in the central temple.
In the temple where the people who were doing the main work quietly disappeared, I took over all the work and the peaceful time disappeared from before me. Due to the quantity and quality of work, the status of the parents’ home, and the appeal of the half-brother, I entered the temple and the day was young, and I was still younger than me.
“The chief priest is likely to be called by the temple chief.”
“… It seems to have been safe”
Listening to the words of Fran, the side serving, I stood up with a sigh. If I stayed asleep for a while, I thought that my work was quick, but I left my room and headed to the room of the temple head. The temple chief doesn’t get out of hand, but it’s a person who only sticks out the mouth, so I’m always grateful to be sleeping during work.
The library entered the field of view while moving. The face of Mine, the child who made a fuss to read the book here, came up and pressed the temple with his fingertips. This is a recent headache and is probably the cause of this call.
Mine, who found the library room at the baptism and said that she wanted to become an apprentice of a shrine maiden, seemed to be dressed in a rich costume. It turned out that the temple head, who was blinded by the huge donation offered to become an apprentice, had magical powers while talking about trying to put a rich daughter into the temple.
From the reaction when I read the scriptures, I knew that I was quite smart, and that I was well educated from the standing behavior and language. So I didn’t say no to the head of the temple who would give Mine to the temple even if he gave him the blue garment.
However, when I called my parents to talk, Mine was not a rich girl but a poor girl.
For me, no matter who my daughter, I thought it would be fine if I had donations and magic, but it seemed different for the temple head. He took a high-pressure attitude and angered Mine.
If you are an aristocrat, you have magical tools to control magical power. Or, since the magical power is regularly devoted to the rituals, even if the magical power increases due to emotions, you will not run away. However, Mine was a poor daughter and did not have any magical tools.
Naturally, the magical power runs away from the body and goes straight to the temple head. Mine’s magical power was so strong that I couldn’t believe she survived the baptismal ceremony.
The temple head, who received the intimidation of magic power, fainted on the spot and did not return to consciousness for a while. I stood.
The fact that the temple chief who had fallen asleep after returning to consciousness has now called me bothered is probably a confirmation of what happened to Mine. Many of the bad tastes that come out of the head of the temple come to mind easily.
The side-serving figure standing in front of the room of the temple head came into sight.
Although it is troublesome, it is better to have the highest temple head in this temple. Slowly inhaled, exhaling with a sigh.
“The temple head and the priest have come to see”
The side of the temple chief who had been waiting in front of the door opens the door according to my walking speed. It may be because it is new to see a slightly tense color on the face.
Upon entering the room, the temple chief sat in the chair of the office desk and left his back to the backrest. The rich belly is emphasized.
Considering the status of my parents only, I am higher, but I am a lion and the temple head is a lion. Because he is a family member of his mother’s mother, his status is not low. Therefore, the temple head seems to be willing to show his superiority, and whenever he calls me, he sits with his office desk and grinning while watching me stand.
However, I was hitting the desk with my fingertips annoyingly with a brutal expression that carved a deep ridge on my nose, whether I couldn’t afford to grin today. As soon as I found my figure, I opened my mouth.
“What happened to the priest, Are you?”
After slowly walking to the front of the temple head, I tilted my head, emphasizing the elegance of nobility.
“What are you saying?”
“It’s decided to be that rude child!”
Like a child who woke up, the temple head shouted while waking up and hitting the desk with a don. Because it was an expected behavior, I lifted up the wooden bill to report and prevented the saliva flying while pretending to read.
“Oh, sure … it was named Mine”
“That’s it. I wonder if it’s bounced back?”
I shook my head loosely to the head of the temple.
“I understand that the temple head is uncomfortable, but this temple has a serious lack of magic. It is best known by the head of the temple who tried to put Mine into the temple. It takes patience until the number of nobility increases. “
“Principal, do you want to endure this trap?
Before the usual long and long family pride comes in, I set up the current situation of the temple.
“If you don’t have that child, the dedication ceremonies will surely be annoying. And in the fall … And what do you do when the Knights ask for it? Or do you ask the rest of the temple for help until the nobility grows? ”
It is known that a temple head, who has a high level of parenthood and has high self-esteem in proportion, bows to others.
As my word suggests, I could have imagined myself bowing to other temples and asking for help.
“If you don’t have enough magical power, that rude kid, I’ll do it right away …”
“Provocation from the front is dangerous. If you receive that magic power from the front again, the heart of the temple chief may not have it.”
Did he forget that he was intimidated by magic until he was overthrown due to his high-pressure attitude? For this reason, the elderly are in trouble.
I report lightly that I decided by discussion with Mine and her parents, with a light check on the temple head biting the back teeth.
“As I told you in advance, I decided to prepare a special blue garment for Mine. I was working on the magical equipment and working in the library where I was eager. It ’s exactly what we ’ve discussed in advance. ”
Emphasize what was discussed in advance. Because of the age, the head of the temple often forgets what he said recently. Sure enough, I’m fond of me while scolding with a reluctant face that I couldn’t do even if I forgot.
“Ugugu …”
“Oh, then Mine isn’t an orphan, so I decided to go from home. In fact, there are many nobles who have a home, so I decided that this was not a problem, so I allowed it.
“What ?!”
The temple chief peels my words and bites me. This is also as expected.
“… I thought you were better than going to have a room in the nobility area because you were given blue clothing.”
“Hung! Well, that’s right”
Rather than giving a room to the aristocratic area, it seemed easier for the temple chief to be convinced, so he whispered with a bad smile. I seem to have completely forgotten my remarks that I should have thrown into the orphanage, but since I have already taken my language, Mine is a decision to go.
“Mine is so weak that I can’t work every day, but there aren’t many tasks that the blue priest apprentice can handle, so there’s no problem when I’m resting when I’m sick. “Sho”
“Huh, I can’t feel any motivation”
It seems like I can’t finish without complaining about anything. As I knew it, I gave it a light shoulder and shed it.
“I decided it was better than bringing illness into the temple …. Then I decided to add side services to manage my physical condition.”
“Not necessary!”
Replying to the answer I had prepared again, sighing lightly that the temple chief’s words were too guessed.
“It doesn’t look good externally because the person wearing the blue garment has no side service. This seems to be related to the face of the temple chief …. and now the gray priest and the priestess. Isn’t it better to have Mine pick up because there is a surplus? “
“… I see”
The blue priests have left, but most of the gray priests are left, except for their favorite. The donation from the blue priest’s parents’ house is reduced, and there are only gray priests and shrine maidens who have no lord.
“After that, when I examined Mine, I was registered as a studio manager in the commercial guild. It’s easy to cut down if you don’t need money-making means for those who serve God. I think it ’s also a useful tool to profit regularly. ”
“Squeeze out as much as you can”
“Look up”
The head of the temple, who has less money to get because of fewer priests and shrine maidens, has gained more profit than the temple. Gently relieved that all permission was granted for the conditions from the Mine side.
“For the time being, I’ll basically take care of Mine so as not to bother the temple head. If you’re in or out of a commercial guild, you can do some paperwork. I basically don’t want to enter the room of the head of the temple, and that’s right, I’ll give you a side report of the gray priest and make a detailed report. “
The temple chief looked intriguingly when I saw the place where I was wary of Mine. While stroking his white beard several times, he smiles when he is planning to not be a habit.
“Huh? … Then I’d like to add one from here. If it’s a girl of the same age, I’ll trust Ale. If Delia, I will work well for you. It ’s a good idea to have an orphan in the side serving, so do n’t worry, do n’t squeeze your donation to the limit, because it ’s only worth it. ”
“Look up”
It became awkward. I intended to assist Mine, who is not familiar with the aristocracy and the temple, but if the temple chief’s child was served by the side of the temple, this behavior would also be an omission.
§ I left the temple head’s room and returned to my room, as I thanked it with my fingertips lifted up with the thought of biting the navel.
“Exactly …”
Really annoying temple head.
While most of the blue priests and shrine maidens entrusted to the temple are aristocratic lions, the temple head is a lion and is very proud of being a high-ranked family. In fact, the inferiority of a person with a lot of magical power is tremendous because he was entrusted to the temple because he had too little magical power for his birth.
If you don’t watch carefully the behavior of Mine, Mine may run away again. Mine is much more useful to me than the temple chief because she is less than this and has not only magical power and money but also paperwork according to the report.
Look at the business-related items in the Mine report.
After provisional registration of apprenticeship with Gilberta Company as the backing, the products that Mine has exchanged of rights to date include a wide variety of products such as Linshan, plant paper, hair ornaments made from yarn, and cattle curls. . It seems that it is neither a lieutenant nor a lie that Mine has enough money to donate one large gold coin.
Due to physical problems, he gave up merchant apprenticeship and plans to invent and sell merchandise at the Mine workshop prepared by Gilberta Shokai.
“I have contracted so many products for about a year … I often come up with products one after another”
Profits made at the Mine workshop are likely to be quite large. Mine must have a side service that will give you detailed reports so that merchants are not fooled by money.
Thinking about that, look around the side serving in your room. Who should be attached to Mine?
It would be good to have a loyalty to me, an accurate report, and a patient. We must be able to cope with the troublesome side service that the temple chief has attached.
“… Fran”
“Yes, what is it?”
franc who called his name is approaching.
“I want you to serve Mine’s side. Please report as closely as possible. Then ask the Lord and Mine to be as close as possible.”
“Wow !? I was clever”
franc was a frustrated fleeting eye for a moment, but slowly nodded. Fran was in a place where Mine’s magical power had runaway, so I might have imagined the shrine of the temple head.
“The other side is … Yes, wasn’t there a hard-to-handle person who couldn’t be attached to the nobility?”
Francs turned his gaze as if embarrassed, and then gently looked down. When I went to the room of the temple chief, Arnaud, who spoke to me, opened his mouth to help out the ship.
“Yes.
“… Fum. Then let Gil, Delia, and Franc serve Mine’s side.”
The side to be attached to Mine has been decided.
Three days after the blue garment arrives, five days after Mine arrives as a shrine maiden apprentice.
Although I’m ready to welcome Mine, what happened?
I can only guess that the uproar will occur, but I had no idea how big it was.
