I’m a Fake Saintess But the Gods Are Obsessed With Me

If I had known the secret of White Rotunia, I would never have said that the flowers were shining in front of Reihausd.

I felt a chill in my spine and quickly shook my head.

“I had a dream.”

Unlike holy power that appears suddenly, divine power is innate.

So, when Ariel, who had never had any divine power, saw the light of White Rotunia, it could mean there was holy power. And I’m trying to block such attempts.

“The dream of White Rotunia swaying in the wind with a pure white light.”

I knew he wasn’t a man to be deceived by cliche excuses.

“That’s why, for a while, I think it really shines softly.”

But my acting skills were improving day by day.

“It’s the moonlight.”

I wish it was a full moon, but the new moon was a little disappointing, yet I put on a sad expression in my own way.

His dark eyes were still following me.

“Am I mistaken for an excuse made up in a hurry?”

Reihausd twisted his lips and said.

He already knew everything, and for a moment I wondered if I was in his hands.

But I answered in the guise of calmness.

“I’ve always wanted to be a real saintess, so why would I lie?”

Ariel in the book was jealous and admired the real saintess, Camilla. She would have sacrificed her soul if she could become a real saintess.

“…”

Reihausd’s eyes steadfastly turned towards me.

I added words to avoid his suspicions.

“If you really think that holy power has manifested in me, there’s a way to check.”

In the central temple, there was a huge Holy Sphere, so those with divine power could be read.

Now is the time no one can enter the temple annex.

This was a kind of adventure for me too, but it was still my last struggle to avoid interrogation of a saintess.

“Ariel.”

And after a while he opened his mouth.

“I would rather have been mistaken. What you seem like these days is different from before.”

Those words made me flinch inside.

“Well, it’s getting harder and harder to control myself.”

His golden eyes glowed brightly in the darkness.

“It’s the first time something like this has happened…”

What is the first time and difficult to control?

And why did Reihausd, who was also in charge of warmth in the original story, become such a character full of decadence?

“Tomorrow morning, before the temple opens, please come to the temple annex.”

I thought he had finished talking, but he opened his mouth again and spoke.

Cold, dangerous eyes were looking at me.

“I’ll have to check it out as Ariel said.”

A bell was ringing in my head to signal danger. I already felt a heavy feeling as if I had shackles on my ankle.

***

After a walk with Reihausd, I returned to my room late and found the window door open.

For a moment, Kyle’s words of stopping by tonight came to my mind, and I looked around the room with a chill on my spine.

Fortunately, I closed the window, making sure that no one was looking at me. It was quite windy outside, it must have been opened by chance.

However, that thought disappeared the moment I saw a paper on the desk.

“…”

I picked up the scribbled thing.

[You’re not in your room today, so I’ll come tomorrow.]

Of course, I could feel it was written by Kyle.

Putting down the letter, I raised one hand and touched my forehead. I thought I had to get out of here as soon as possible.

“Ah… Rather than that, starting tomorrow.”

I reactivated the oracle.

[The God of Art, Mond, runs barefoot.]

[The God of Destruction, Ciel, is wagging his tail.]

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, is curious about your business with Reihausd.]

After coughing a couple of times, I looked at the chat window and said:

“The one who will destroy the Holy Sphere in the temple annex before tomorrow morning.”

[The God of Art, Mond, widens his eyes at your words.]

It’s probably something of great value. It is said that there is only one in the Empire.

“I will consider the one who does it as a benefactor for the rest of my life. Because this will make me get confined in the end.”

The Holy Sphere was the most accurate tool for measuring divine power or holy power, and according to Reihausd, White Rotunia seemed to temporarily play such a role.

“Don’t completely destroy it, but just temporarily disable it.”

[The Gods have entered into a serious meeting.]

A message I had never seen before appeared.

Even in a country that is favored by the Gods, would it be unreasonable to damage the Holy Sphere?

The meeting went on for quite some time and I couldn’t wait and lay in bed. And maybe it was because of the stressful routine, I fell asleep without realizing it.

“Saintess… Saintess…!”

At one point, I heard Daisy’s voice in my ear.

I frowned and opened my eyes to see the bright sunlight coming through the window.

Daisy was stamping her feet with an anxious look.

The moment I got up, I noticed that the atmosphere wasn’t auspicious and asked her.

“What’s going on?”

“There’s a big problem. I think you should go out and see it.”

I had just woken up and wasn’t in a hurry, but I slowly walked out of the room.

In various places in the hallway, priests and priestesses could be seen gathering three or three and talking.

Daisy led me to the corridor leading to the annex.

Then I remembered what I had asked the Gods for last night.

Looking at this uproar, it seems that something has happened, but I haven’t figured it out yet.

And standing in front of the annex, I couldn’t help but be amazed.

“What is this…”

The Temple of Elium was divided into five main areas.

The main building, where believers gather every week, and with the size of a soccer stadium, surprised even me from the modern era. Most of the temple functions were attached to this main building.

Next, it’s located in a location with good access to all the buildings, including the pavilion where priests and priestesses live, and I was living in the most luxurious and large room here.

And there was the sanctuary, a tower where saints receive oracles, and a library that I had visited last time.

The last one was an annex that could store holy relics and distinguish divine power and holy power.

The annex was clearly on the third floor the last time I saw it, but now only the ruins of the building remain.

Many priests were looking at the annex with serious expressions, and Reihausd’s back was seen as he was standing and staring at the annex.

“It happened early in the morning, so no one was hurt, but everyone was shocked.”

I looked at the collapsed building with an expression that couldn’t be expressed in words of absurdity, and focused my eyes on the chat window.

[The God of Love, Odyssey, insists that everyone worked together, so the share of the ‘Lifetime Benefactor’ should be 1/N.]

[The God of Knowledge, Hessed, claims that his work was the greatest.]

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, suddenly swings his lash.]

“This crazy!”

I forgot I was outside and screamed.

I felt people’s gazes on me, and I covered my mouth with my hand, but my heart was pounding.

You’re the Gods and that’s a temple!

[The God of Art, Mond, is scratching his head, saying that he doesn’t like it anyway because the annex building is poorly constructed.]

Although the purpose of not using the Holy Sphere was achieved, the scale was too large and noisy.

[The Gods have entered into a serious meeting.]

[The Gods have decided on the application of your title of ‘Lifetime Benefactor’.]

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, took half the stake, then the God of Knowledge, Hessed, the God of Destruction, Ciel, and the God of Art, Mond, shared a third of the remaining stake.]

[The God of Destruction, Ciel, protests that it’s unfair and closes his mouth at Oman’s lash.]

They were the Gods who bought male leads stock like that, and now they are eager to go to the wrong place.
