I Became a Fake Priest the Saintess Is Obsessed With

99 – Lotus flower blooming under the water (2)

I came out of the Dragon Palace.

What… okay. I came out of the Dragon Palace…

“What is going on…?” ?”

The streets at night were decorated with colorful lights and seaweed, and street vendors were set up between the buildings.

In a street colored with hundreds of colors, mermaids dressed in traditional attire are wandering around outside.

Yonggung is an authentic instrument from the south and is immersed in melody.

It seemed as if the Yonggung Palace was having a huge party.

‘What…? ? There is nothing worth having a party at the Dragon Palace at this time… ?’

Even if you think about the contents of the Encyclopedia of Southern Culture, there is nothing at this time that would warrant a festival of this magnitude.

In memory of dead warriors.

Unification Day, the day when all mermaid races were united, is still a long time away, and the Dragon King’s Birthday is also a summer event, so it is still a long time away.

“Hey! Ivan!!!”

As I was pondering, I heard a familiar voice.

“Tina!”

I looked towards the place where the voice came from and shouted.

There, Tina and a saint dressed in unusual clothing were approaching me.

The clothes they are wearing are the traditional clothes worn by mermaids walking around the streets.

The front and back were engraved with traditional patterns used in the Dragon Palace, giving a different atmosphere to the women who usually wore only drab priestly uniforms.

Tina has a yellow orthodox outfit that matches her hair color with a blue floral pattern, giving Tina’s unique liveliness, while the saintess has a red floral pattern on her black outfit, giving her a flashy and haughty look. It gave me a feeling.

It’s as if the clothes became wings and enhanced their charm.

So… According to the cultural encyclopedia, what is the general term for the traditional attire of the Yonggung Palace?

I don’t remember. In the first place, I didn’t bother to memorize it because it was a garment worn only during the Dragon Palace festival.

“Ivan! “Have you finally come to your senses?”

Finally, Tina arrived in front of me, dragging the saint.

“Ah, yes. What… I slept soundly. Rather, Tina. What’s going on all of a sudden? It shouldn’t be festival time, but suddenly it feels like a festival… “

“You defeated Leviathan, right? It is well known that Leviathan has been a nuisance to these people for thousands of years, and now that it has been caught, of course it is a festive mood!”

Tina responded with a puzzled look, as if I was asking an obvious question.

Ah, I see.

It seems that the news that Leviathan was captured spread, and the excited citizens held a festival.

Hey~ Electric grilling of Leviathan at the street vendor over there. Seeing that it is being sold, I think my prediction is probably correct.

It’s a festival… Good.

Normally, I would have tried to enjoy the festival, but now I am very tired.

Rolling around in the lodgings provided by Kuclet…

“Wow… ! Look over there! The street stall over there sells traditional liquor, right? Let’s go eat!”

Tina told the girls to have fun and was about to go to her house when she grabbed my arm.

“Yes? “I want to go home and rest now?!”

“What are you leaving out? “Amelia, don’t look like you don’t want to go, everyone, just follow us!”

“No, no! I’m having a really hard time! “There’s nothing wrong with my body, but I’m so, so, so tired that I can’t go.”

He strongly resisted Tina who tried to drag him away by force.

If I were to be active outside any longer, I would either die from overwork or die from exhaustion.

“Hmm… Ivan. “At least you should listen to me, right?”

“Huh?”

Tina, who was dragging me, suddenly stopped and I fell to the floor.

I had no choice but to put my ass down on her floor, and Tina looked down at me.

“Ivan, it’s because of you… “

Tina slowly untied the straps that tied her clothes.

As her straps come undone, her clothes become unfastened and slowly fall down.

What, what is it?

Why is that person acting like that all of a sudden?

I wanted to get away from Tina’s strange behavior, but Tina’s charisma as she looked down at me as if she was criticizing her made my body stiffen.

When I took a quick look, the saint next to me also said, ‘Eh, eh…’ ?’ He was shaking and very embarrassed.

Tina, with her shoulders clearly exposed, trembles. And she shouts

“My whole body is covered in blood because of you!!!!!”

Just as Tina said, her upper body was covered in blood.

“No, why is it my fault…” ?”

“You just swung me at Leviathan and got me covered in blood! Because it is blood of a strange nature, it cannot be erased! “You play a little bit and take responsibility!”

Tina screamed so hard that her brain rang.

[The hero’s will says that if you are a hero, you must take responsibility for making her lady cry]

To… ? This is my fault?

No, he just swung Tina, who had turned into her sword.

I just swung a weapon and it’s my fault?

“Yes, priest… It looks like Sister Tina is very upset. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could get along… ?”

The saintess said as she hurriedly adjusted Tina’s clothes.

It looks like the saint is in trouble because of Tina.

Ah… okay! I shouldn’t have wielded a woman who had been turned into a weapon!

I half-forcibly convinced myself and nodded to Tina.

“I will work… Since I have committed a mortal sin, I will let you hang out as much as I want… “

“Wow! Really? Is it a promise? “You really have to hang out until you get screwed?”

“Yes~ “

“Then it’s alcohol! “Let’s go have a drink right now!”

“Wow! “Please let me go for now!!!”

Tina dragged me to her liquor store.

***

“Ugh… alcohol… “

“hehehe… Priest… “

About an hour and a half after entering the bar.

They were all drunk and spread out.

“Ugh… Alcohol should be consumed in moderation… “

I sighed when I saw that I was the only sober person.

Huh? How do I survive without stretching out before Tina, the main girl?

It’s simple. I avoided drinking by cleverly using the so-called drinking technique, which involves throwing away alcohol without being noticed by others.

[The hero’s will criticizes you for avoiding fair competition and resorting to treacherous tactics]

“Be quiet. In our world, it’s taken for granted for heroes to use lethal measures, right? “To show that if you fight from the front, you will always overcome the losing opponent with amazing wisdom.”

[Ask if the hero’s will is real]

“Yes, at least it’s not a lie. Rather, are you going to keep talking to me in the future? What… If you’re aiming for a replacement for the goddess, I won’t stop you… ‘”

[Hero’s Will asks what a replacement for the Goddess means]

“Oh, there is such a thing. I guess it’s a role that tackles you at all times….”

Talking about the goddess like this makes me miss her.

I was as narrow-minded as a mothball on the inside, and the bad things I tried to do were cut off like a knife, which made me irritated.

Still, she had a good heart, so she missed the goddess who helped me.

Dagon is good, but I wish the goddess would do the tackling…

As I thought about the Goddess, Dagon’s message came right up.

[The Hero’s Will says that soon he will not have time to talk to you]

“Is that so? It’s a little disappointing. It’s been a while since I met someone I can talk to comfortably… “

[The hero’s will says you are lying. You say you have never shown me the real you yet]

“hahahaha… Did you even see through that? “I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can comfortably stay that far.”

[The hero’s will asks if one day you can show him your true self]

“Um… well. “I’ll show you if I see you face to face.”

[The hero’s will asks if you promise]

“hahahaha. “I promise.”

I won’t ever meet you since I’m dead anyway, so why are you so curious about my true self…

I smiled slightly.

Dung- Dung- Dung- Dung-

As I was talking with Dagon, the sound of a huge drum beating could be heard from all directions.

I was slightly startled by the grand and huge sound and looked around.

“What does this mean?”

[It is explained that the hero’s will is the sound that announces the opening of the wedding ceremony]

“If it’s a wedding ceremony… “Are you talking about the ceremony held for the warriors who died in battle in the south?”

“Yes.”

Suddenly, I heard the voice of an unfamiliar woman in front of me.

I looked ahead in surprise.

There was a mermaid wearing a simple, traditional costume sitting there.

The beautiful mermaid, with her pink hair and eyes of the same color, was looking at me intently.

“Uh… “Who is there?”

I was surprised by the sudden appearance of a woman.

I was just chatting with Dagon. I was a little embarrassed because from someone else’s perspective, it was just like talking alone.

Furthermore, because the other person was such a beautiful woman, the intensity of the embarrassment was several times stronger.

“Who are you? “It’s me.”

“…Do we know each other?”

“Yes, we were just talking. A hero must have a good memory, but you don’t have a good memory either?”

You said you just had a conversation? And why is this guy acting like a hero like Dagon?

Wait a minute… ! No way… !

“Dagon?”

“Correct answer~”

When I asked in confusion, the woman who claimed to be Day Gon smiled.
