The Half-Puny Priest Hopes To Retire

19 – Foreboding

The phenomenon of a normally fine object suddenly breaking or breaking takes on the role of foreshadowing someone’s misfortune in creative works.

What if the screen closes up in a meaningful way toward the plate that a housewife who was washing dishes while humming a song in the sink inadvertently dropped it?

As if it is safe to say that the death penalty has already been sentenced to the husband of the housewife who appears in the next cut.

Being able to project even someone’s death into a trivial matter of breaking things at most means that the high ground occupied by mankind in the field of imagination is unrivaled.

Imagination that stretches in a bad direction makes worries and worries that do not need to be sprouted like mushrooms after rain.

There are also many cases where a disturbing imagination turns into a quagmire called hesitation and tries to knock our bodies down.

The wealth of such imagination may not be just a benefit to mankind.

Pacan!

Already the 5th, the fork broke.

If the cutting edge is bent or the head is falling off, there is nothing I can’t understand.

Anyway, isn’t it a little bit like a perfectly fine fork being split vertically?

ominous

It was the first time since the party members lied to me about going on a picnic and entered an unregistered dungeon.

The embarrassment and betrayal I felt then are still vivid to this day.

I lied. bad. Humans are ugly creatures.

As I was crouching down and repeating the same words like a broken doll, my elven companions, who rebuked me for saying that it was time to give up at this point, felt so mean at the time.

After that, for a while, whenever my colleagues asked me to go somewhere, I suffered from severe neurosis, in which my body would automatically prepare for defense.

”Hut! Another broken fork! I’ll prepare a new one soon!”

”Nope. You don’t have to do that…”

I couldn’t look at the back of a familiar but unfamiliar man who rushed somewhere before I could finish my words.

His name was Lovellite, who restored his dazzling blonde hair to a shiny black hair. Commonly known as the Light Novel priest.

Why a famous person who once wore the modifier of handsome priest like a cape, radiating dazzling brilliance and acting as my attendant in a different way than before, even I, the person concerned, had not yet been able to find a definite answer. .

The day I fell for the nun’s cunning and unwillingly rescued him from the mire of death.

From the appearance of Priestess La Novel, who repeatedly blinked her eyes, clenched her fists and bleeds while being buried by her fiancées who were crying and happy for their reunion, I could only get a very general impression that she was like someone who had just woken up from anesthesia. because I did

But about a week after that.

‘Starting today, I, Lovell Wright, will withdraw my declaration of support for Rage’s Guardian Priest! Starting today, Rage’s Guardian Priestess and I will free ourselves from our relationship of support and express that we have become one body, and we will regard any attack against him as an attack against me!’

During the weekend worship service, when all the priests in the chapel gather together, I decided to regard him as my nemesis who must be excluded from my life.

”hahahaha····. That X baby ····. ”

And that was also the moment when, for the first time in my life, curses about my hometown came out of my mouth, even on the day when I had a hole in my stomach or when I was wandering between life and death with lethal doses of poison spreading throughout my body.

◈◈◈

At first, I just thought it was bullying in a new direction.

That terrible nobleman is finally using this three-dimensional method to torment me.

I never thought I would repay the grace that saved my life this way. I saved you for nothing Also.

“At that time, I was really misrecognizing the seriousness of the situation.

Circumstances made it inevitable.

It was hard enough just to accustom my mind and body to the many dramatic changes that had stirred up my work environment, which had been bland until now, with the force of heavy rain pouring down on a calm lake.

There was no room left for me to pay attention to a strange breed who suddenly changed his profession from a priest to a monk.

First of all, to talk about positive changes, the issue related to eating, which has been my biggest complaint so far, has improved to an excellent level.

For me, who was in charge of the saintess’ meals and had to accept her grievances, it was virtually impossible to go to the monastery to receive food just in time for the tight meal times stipulated here unless I had two bodies.

After hearing the story, the nun’s side had already suggested several times how to improve my eating problem, long before I complained about it.

Thanks to this feat, it is now possible to receive a so-called special meal voucher that allows you to receive as many meals as you want, whenever and wherever you want.

The infinite meal coupons that were discussed jokingly with classmates during school days were real.

Right after that, when I heard that the legendary treasure that heralded the beginning of the era of pirates existed, I thought it was needless to say that I felt a surge of emotion from my danjeon comparable to that of when I heard the existence of the pirate era.

In the left hand is the ticket to go out. In the right hand is an infinite meal ticket.

At most, you only have two pieces of paper in your hands. It was to the point where I felt an unknown source of omnipotence, that I was a completely different being from what I had been up until now.

Ah, is this what power is?

At this moment, the edible mountain vegetables that were blooming all over the chapel flower beds looked like mere weeds.

They say that when people become tainted with power, the way they see the world changes, but I never thought a change would come so instantly.

It was the moment when it was unequivocally proven that a black demon named desire resided in my cramped environment. Maybe someday this monster will try to devour me.

A glimmer of fear ran through my thoughts.

but.

If there are good changes, there will be bad changes as well.

Just as the monsters in your pocket who are said to live in Japan, a country far away, must sacrifice one of the four skills they have been learning in order to learn a more powerful skill than before.

The price I had to pay for getting 10 permits to go out and unlimited meal tickets was no small sacrifice.

In order to talk about this, I will first have to explain some absurd rumors that are currently making a stir in the whole system.

The saintess’ exclusive guardian priest can even bring the dead back to life.

Rumors, rumors, and groundless rumors spread throughout the system by the group of Lan Novel’s fiancées who witnessed the whole series of events after I rescued Priestess Lan Novel.

The most fundamental reason that the heat of the agitation stemming from the rumor shows no sign of abating, even after weeks and hours have passed since then.

I am convinced that it is because of the manipulation of the top of the Vatican, who tries to hide the truth that can damage their reputation and tries to spread the lies that will raise their honor as far as possible.

I wonder if those who know the circumstances well before and after do not know.

To their eyes, who were not aware of the context and couldn’t even acknowledge the concept of divine power, it was not strange to see me as a miracle cleric who revived a person whose heart and pulse stopped.

Furthermore, the majority of the people gathered there were nobles born with connections to the top of the political world.

It didn’t take long for hollow rumors to become rooted information.

Every now and then, whenever there is an opportunity to correct the so-called gossip, whenever people appear who ask me for the veracity of the rumors.

I said no, it was a misunderstanding, and I tried to pull it hard with the most sincere voice I could evoke from my throat, but this time my unnecessarily high position held me back.

Even if a person who is undoubtedly the highest ranking priest in the system, such as the saintess’s exclusive guardian priest, made a statement degrading himself, it would only be seen as trembling in the eyes of his subordinates.

Later on, it came to the point where he was even cautiously criticized by some elder priests, saying that excessive humility was an act of lowering one’s dignity.

Lord.

But more than anything else, it’s what bothers me.

”Oh my goodness. Aren’t you the Rage’s Guardian Priest? To meet you in a place like this! What a wonderful coincidence!”

A bunch of light novel’s fiancées. A few of them started clinging to me blatantly.

Without even thinking about hiding the existence of the black beast named desire that twitched its teeth in his eyes.
