My childhood friend the hero was genuinely angry

19 – The Man Loved by the Goddess (7)

No matter how you think about it, the battle that just happened was a battle on a very large scale.

The saintess of the Goddess Church, Alkena, who almost became a warrior party. And Xerath, the former wizard of the warrior party. Of course, it is right that the battle between me and her should not be thought of as a battle between ordinary gossipers. I knew that, so I was prepared for it. I mean, the determination to go through a really difficult battle.

However, the battle I thought so ended up with a very absurd ending.

For some reason, the saintess couldn’t use the saint’s ability, Goddess Advent, and she couldn’t concentrate on the battle at all. Of course, I wasn’t going to miss such an opportunity, and the battle ended with me attacking the saintess.

“Hmm… I brought it for now…”

No matter how much I think about it, the ending was too futile, and I don’t know why it ended like this, but looking at the result, I won the battle with her saintess, and because of that, I was able to come to the dungeon of the royal castle with her saintess tied up. .

However, even if I had successfully won the battle, the situation was still not completely over.

In the dungeon of the royal castle where no one was there, I couldn’t help but think about various things while looking at the saintess who was soundly asleep.

“What should I do from now on?”

I’ll say it again, the saintess was never someone I could touch her carelessly.

As a saint of the Continental Goddess Church, she was in a very important position, and she was absolutely indispensable.

So, if I sneak around here or do something like that, something really unmanageable will happen.

“I hope we can talk.”

So the best scenario I want right now is to talk to her. I wanted to have a conversation and hope that the situation would work out now.

If that’s the case, this situation will end very cleanly. We can finish this case without anyone getting hurt.

I hoped for such an ending, but it was the most hopeful ending and the ending I wanted, and there was a high possibility that the reality would not be so easy.

“Will the conversation work? If the conversation doesn’t work…”

If I could not communicate with the saintess, I had to think about that as well.

This is only one possibility in real life, but if the conversation between the saintess and I doesn’t work out to the end, and if the situation goes to an extreme, then I might have to make a slightly extreme choice.

If that’s the way for me and the people of the kingdom to live, then I’ll have no choice but to make that choice.

“No. Let’s talk.”

Well, of course, that is only within the realm of the family. I think we can definitely solve it if we talk.

Basically, the saintess would never be an evil person. From the start she decided not to take it too seriously.

“Ugh…”

“You’re awake.”

Just in time, the saintess woke up from fainting and saw her eyes.

With a slight moan, the saintess looked around her with red eyes.

I greeted such a saint, albeit briefly.

“Former warrior’s party wizard… Xerath…”

“Yes. Saintess. I am Xerath. Shall we talk first?”

From now on, she and I will have to talk.

I released the restraint I used on the saintess, and I spoke to her as kindly as possible. It’s not good to show hostility in order to have a conversation.

However, it was not that I was careless while watching the saintess. Now that her saintess was in a very dangerous state, I had no intention of giving her the initiative in her conversation.

‘I shouldn’t relax.’

I am ready to subdue her again if her saintess does her crap even a little bit.

I continued to maintain her bloody mood and waited for her answer.

“Yes. Let’s do it. But before that, there’s something we need to do.”

The saintess looked at me like that and nodded her head as if she understood. Fortunately, she accepted the conversation.

I don’t know if that conversation will work, but he didn’t hold any hostility toward me.

Is this a good start? I was about to let out a sigh of relief as I looked at her saintess.

“…?”

Suddenly she stood up from her seat. I was taken aback when I saw her as a saint, but I calmly watched her.

She continued to stare at her, thinking that if she did any crap on her, she’d get her right.

“Xeras, please accept my apology.”

However, she didn’t do anything like that. Rather, she continued to do strange things.

The saintess suddenly apologized to me, and that wasn’t the only thing.

“…?”

The saintess rose from her seat and suddenly began to unbutton her clothes.

Looking at such a saint, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed right now.

…? What the hell is this situation?

The battle with Xerath, after losing the battle, Alkena met the goddess while fainting for a while.

She was a goddess she hadn’t seen in a really long time. When such a goddess was angry with herself at first, she couldn’t help but be dumbfounded, but after hearing everything from the goddess, she realized what kind of misunderstanding she had.

There was no hostility like before. Rather, it was a situation full of guilt.

‘I was wrong…’

In this situation, no matter who sees it, it was his own fault. There was no change in that thought.

She misunderstood Xerath as an evil pagan wizard and tried to kill her.

It was said that it was because I thought so at the time, but it was clear that this was a very big mistake.

‘I came because the evil wizard was here…’

Of course, the saintess didn’t do it without thinking. Just as there is no such thing as a tomb without an excuse, there are excuses for the saintess.

She had only received a report from the church. She had been informed that an evil pagan wizard was in the area.

She arrived here because of that report, and it was just a fight with Xerath who happened to be here.

‘He was a very nice person.’

But even so, what she did wrong was wrong. And her faults she did were by no means light.

The Xeras he saw from the goddess, that Xeras was a very good and kind wizard.

But I tried to kill Xerath, such a good and innocent mage.

‘I tried to kill even innocent people without proper investigation…’

Also, because that wasn’t enough, he tried to kill the innocent people of Alprada Kingdom. This was never a situation to be taken lightly.

A really small mistake could have made a big difference. Everyone may have died horribly.

It was a situation where he could have died because of his own mistake, not at the hands of anyone else.

‘What kind of goddess are you claiming to be the representative of a goddess like this…’

As an ordinary saint, as a representative of the goddess, Arcena was an Alkena who always tried to act properly with her awareness.

She

She used to despise the evil cultists who wound and kill innocent people because she did.

But she didn’t know that in this situation, the evil cultist was herself, not anyone else.

The beings who injure and kill innocent people, that was himself.

What he did was no different from what evil cultists do.

‘Something like me isn’t even a saint.’

I couldn’t help but feel so much shame.

She is a saint who should be an example to others, but instead of being an example, she made a mistake.

She said, to be honest, she might have to give up her position as a saint at this point, and if that happens, she will take it for granted.

‘It doesn’t matter if I can’t be forgiven… I have to apologize now.’

But before that, she wanted to ask for forgiveness for the wrong she had done.

She

Of course, there was a good chance that she would not be forgiven.

She

She said it was a misunderstanding, but she was right that she had made a very big mistake. She will most likely not be forgiven.

But she still had to ask for forgiveness. She said there was nothing she could do but apologize.

‘It’s not because the goddess told me to.’

And the reason wasn’t because the goddess ordered it.

The goddess ordered Alkena to apologize, but she did not do this because the goddess ordered her to do so.

Since she sincerely regrets what she did wrong, she herself wanted to apologize to Xerath.

“Sorry… Xerath…”

So, since she is truly remorseful, it is only natural that she should show sincere apology.

Arcenna intends to apologize to Xerath with her own sincerity.

Arkenna unbuttoned each button on her clothes.

Slowly, from the top of the nun’s uniform to the bottom and underwear… I’m going to get rid of everything.

After a while, she became Arcena in the same way she was born.

“I’ll do anything you ask, please forgive me.”

She immediately slammed her head under Xerath’s feet.

A very earnest apology.

This apology was the biggest apology she could make.
