The Half-Puny Priest Hopes To Retire

23 – unexpected

”Please—!”

shout. No, that roaring voice, which could be considered a roar, was bound to be the subject of attention in the solemn atmosphere of the monastery.

The guardian priests in the monastery, who are said to be using quite a bit of energy, did not dare to pull out the suspicious visitor, who was constantly boasting of his booming voice to the receptionist, who seemed to be embarrassed, with his face covered by a rugged helmet that did not fit his head. The reason why I couldn’t even come up with it was as follows.

First, he was the owner of an unusual spirit that could be clearly recognized even with the eyes of a criminal without a relationship with struggle.

The second is that several fearless priests who had tried to bring him down earlier had already been subdued by him and were lying on the floor like tumbleweeds in a western movie.

Thirdly, the object he presented as his identification card to the receptionist’s repeated questioning was a dedication to prove his relationship with the royal family.

It was a natural step for the poor receptionist to fall into a state of panic at the mind-boggling combination that was completely beyond the scope of a single employee.

”I’m sorry. knight. Even if you are related to the royal family, the list of priests is a confidential matter of our church, so we cannot show it to you without permission from the Holy See.”

”okay! But judge that! Can you please reconsider! I have important matters that must be checked through that list!”

”Ha, but…”

”The reprimand and compensation for the rudeness of now will be paid well in the future! Please!”

”Ah, no matter how…”

”Please!”

Help me.

The receptionist, who instinctively sensed that even if she occasionally appealed for salvation with her eyes wet with such pitiful longings, she would not be able to break through the spirit and volume of that mighty wave. It was about the time it was spilling.

”What’s going on?”

”Su, Sister!”

When that calm voice calmed the turmoil like sweet rain over a fire, the receptionist’s gloomy expression suddenly began to brighten, like someone who had found a light in the dark.

”I am the general manager here. If you have any questions or suggestions about our church, why don’t you talk to me. An unknown knight.”

”okay! You are in charge here! excuse me! Nice to meet you!”

◈◈◈

The fragrant scent of black tea, the profound atmosphere created by the sophisticated decorations, and the bloody war clouds that filled the waiting room seemed incapable of reaping all of them.

”Leaving aside the introduction, I’ll tell you straight to the point! Please hand over to me the list of all the priests who hold office here in the monastery!”

It was indeed a bold and bold proposal.

Even if it was a knight with direct ties to the royal family, visiting the monastery without prior notice and asking the church to provide confidential information to the church.

there is no case I don’t know. impolite.

It could be seen as such a reckless act that even these cross-sectional words could not fully describe it.

The suggestion was absurd, to the extent that I think the most reasonable inference would be to see him as the culprit of a cult sent to disrupt relations between the Holy See and the royal family.

”May I ask the reason?”

However, despite the knight’s boldness, the nun’s calm demeanor was so neatly organized that not even a single crack could be found.

As if the mask hiding her expression was just a decoration, as if she was wearing an intangible mask all over her body, the series of figures embroidering her words neatly made her look like an emotionless doll.

”Actually, we’re looking for an old colleague who has been separated for unavoidable reasons! Because of this, we now have a lot of information and testimonies that he was seen near this monastery! I came here at the risk of disrespect under the reasonable inference that he might be in office at this monastery!”

”Oh, seeing as you say that, you seem to be a very important colleague.”

”Yeah! That’s right!”

The silence between the two did not last long.

At most, the time when the nun brought the teacup to her mouth and enjoyed the fragrance.

A fleeting time that is not suitable for controlling emotions or controlling breathing.

Unexpectedly, the nun was the first to break through the desolate silence.

”But, it’s a little strange. What if he broke up with the driver due to unavoidable circumstances and went missing? Doesn’t the fact that he is engaged in a new career in a different country mean that he has no intention of running into the knight’s party?”

”····”

”Favor is relative. I can’t disagree that the sorrowful heart of the knight thinking of his comrades is beautiful and noble, but goodwill that does not consider the intentions of the other person sometimes casts a darker twilight than malice on the retina. Don’t you think that if the knight truly cares about that colleague, it would be more appropriate for him to consider the reason why he had to leave the knight and respect that will?”

”····”

okay.

Could it be that they couldn’t find a suitable counterargument to the nun’s sermon? As the knight’s gaze dropped towards the floor, unable to say anything other than the clunky sound made by the helmet he was wearing overturned.

Again, the nun began to speak slowly, in a calm tone, like an adult comforting a child.

”Anything about the roster can be shown at my discretion. But even if you were to reunite with that colleague in this way, it would be absolutely impossible to change his original intentions. After all, human will is…”

It was then.

Quadduk!

A hideous roar, a mixture of metal grinding and wood shattering, broke the tranquil atmosphere of the reception room in an instant.

”What, what…!”

The table seated between the nun and the knight was split in half.

The nun, who belatedly realized that it was the result of the knight hitting her head hard on the table, couldn’t control her agitation that even the mask covering her face couldn’t cover.

Amidst the scattered pieces of wood and fragments of the shattered helmet, someone’s high-pitched voice rose like a sword strike.

”Please—!”

The head, which broke through the table with unusual momentum, was stuck close to the floor before anyone knew it.

The appearance of begging for someone’s begging, which is vulgar and frivolous.

For the first time, the nun’s calm demeanor collapsed at the frivolous appearance, which was so far removed from the confident attitude she had seen so far.

”Please! If you’d like an example, I’ll give it to you! I’ll do anything within my limits! So please! Please hand over the list to me!”

Wow, I didn’t expect it to come out like this!

If the nun’s bustling behavior could be described in words, it must have meant that.

For her, who had already discovered the identity of the unknown knight in front of her in the evening, she knew very well how unfair it was for him to bow down to her.

”This is troublesome! Please raise your head!”

”Nope! Until you do me a favor, I can’t get this head off the floor!”

If it was a war of words, I was confident that I would not lose to anyone.

If he was threatened by force, he was thinking of using that situation instead.

However, because she was a nun who never thought that a great man who was admired by everyone and whose every trace of her life was praised as a heroic achievement would take such a servile attitude.

It was inevitable that accidents would not catch up with the shocking reality in front of them.

Unfortunately, however, this was not the only unexpected variable.

”Hey! Warrior! Didn’t I just say don’t bang your head anywhere like that!?’

”apis! How many times have I told you not to move so violently! look at this! Hasn’t the long-awaited invisibility magic been released again!”

”Well····.”

Just as the bark of an old tree is slowly peeling away from the body, what lies beyond the transparent fragments that have fallen out of the air in various ways are high-profile figures that the people of this system cannot be aware of. great heroes.

warrior party.

‘Stop, no way…!’

A terrible assumption passed through the nun’s mind.

Through a reliable information network, it was already notified in advance that the warrior party was tracking the priest’s whereabouts in their own special way.

That’s one brave man. Or because she foresaw that only one or two of the party members would fill that role.

‘Are you all here!?’

At that moment, the size of the scream that the nun burst into her heart rivaled that of the dragon’s roar.
