My Daughters Have Become Gods

14 – Oracle

The month after returning from capturing Duke Vissus with Ecclesia.

Terrible news struck the entire territory.

The contents are an oracle given directly by God!

It is said that God himself gave an oracle.

It is said that there were many gods on this continent.

The reason it is in past tense is because many gods were destroyed through Ragnarok, the war of the gods in the past.

In that war, my children, Leah, Alia, and Huffness, were victorious, and they ascended to the position of supreme god and were divided into three.

Look at how well they fight, as if they weren’t raised by anyone.

I am so proud.

Anyway, there are currently three most popular religions on this continent: Rheaism, Aliaism, and Huffness.

Leahism is the largest religion that worships Leah, the god of magic. It has the status of state religion in many human countries, and it is also the state religion in this country where I and Ecclesia were born.

Leahism is such an influential religious group that there is a separate kingdom dedicated to Leah.

Even when I raised him, he was quite talented in magic, but I can’t believe he is the god of magic that so many people believe in.

Leah…… Great job, my daughter.

The Alia religion are those who worship Alia, the god of war. It has a strong influence on some human nations, dark elves, and dwarves.

In the case of the Alia religion, it is characterized by its believers having so much faith that they are called fanatics.

According to their doctrine, if you die for Alia, about 70 virgins will be waiting for you in heaven.

Aliyah… What on earth have you done?

Lastly, Huffness is the smallest of the three religions, but has a level of influence that cannot be ignored.

It is said that the World Tree serves as a centralized state for the elves and beastmen.

In fact, the information was sorely lacking, perhaps because the elves and beastmen themselves were very closed beings.

Huffiness… You’re doing well, right?

In any case, the news that shook our territory was an oracle from God given to the Roman Pope.

The message is to find someone.

The Pope said, ‘The Messiah who will save us all and lead us to heaven.’

Are you talking about a savior?

In the past, even when I was working as a warrior and fighting against the devil’s army.

Even when defeating the Demon King and fighting demons in the devastated ruins.

The god of this world has never even spoken to me.

I heard that Erica, who was a saint, was chosen by God and could use enormous divine power, and I knew that this holy sword I had was also an item given by God, but no divine being ever spoke to me.

It is an oracle given by God that did not say anything even in the desperate crisis of Manya, where the intelligent beings of the continent will become extinct.

No, what is more strange is that there are still records of Ragnarok, the war of the gods.

What happened during the 2000 years between my death and reincarnation?

Simply because Leah, Alia, and Huffness became gods?

Is that the difference?

Anyway, the entire continent we are on, including our territory, began to search for a ‘savior’ according to the oracle.

The Holy Kingdom, the center of Leiaism, dispatched holy knights and priests throughout the continent to find the protagonist of the oracle.

A priest from the Holy Kingdom arrived at our territory and was greeted by his parents at the entrance of the mansion.

“Ha. Be a savior. “That’s a funny story.”

“Ecclesia.”

As I was looking down at the outer first floor of the mansion from the hallway and examining the priests of the Holy Kingdom, Ecclesia approached me.

“Did the gods of this world have the concept of salvation? “I don’t think I saw anything like that in my past life.”

This is what I was thinking until just now.

She seems to have lived at a similar time as me in her past life.

“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think he is a proper god. “A god who doesn’t do anything when it’s really necessary, but then suddenly sends an oracle to find someone.”

Even if you say that.

First of all, Leah is my daughter.

I feel a little bad when you say that.

What a good girl she is.

“… Huh? You look a little upset. “Did you become a faithful apostle of God in your past life?”

“…… No. It’s not like that. I was also thinking about what you said. In my previous life, I also never heard anything like God’s salvation or God’s voice, even though humanity was on the verge of extinction. And then suddenly salvation.”

“Humanity… ? Did you think the same thing as me? “This is something we need to know in order to properly adapt to this world.”

“Okay… ….”

What happened during the year 2000?

What happened to our children?

Now I am a stranger to them… This is just to adapt to this world.

Yes.

* * *

“Are you talking about our son?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

A Lean bishop smiling at Count Allerto and his wife with narrowed eyes.

“But for some reason….”

“Ah, let me explain that part in detail. According to the oracle that Leah gave to His Holiness the Pope, a savior will come to save this world, so find him.”

“Savior… ….”

“The problem is that that part of the trust is ambiguous. It’s always a trust thing. Well, how can we understand what God is doing?”

The bishop shrugged his shoulders.

“Anyway, according to the contents of the oracle, we have come to the conclusion that the savior will be a boy within 5 years of birth. He was born after that and made mistakes. Since babies who will be born after that cannot yet be surveyed, the Secretariat has decided to survey all boys born less than five years ago.”

“Is it the end of 5 years? If so, then… ?”

“Yes, that’s right. I heard that the Count’s son just turned five this year. And he is very intelligent for his age. There is a high possibility that you are the savior of the oracle, so I would like to ask if I could meet you sometime.”

After hearing those words, Count Allerto and his wife exchanged glances.

-My son?

-Savior?

Then they smiled broadly and answered the bishop.

“Of course. How can someone who believes in Leah reject this? “Please come this way.”

“Thank you. May the count’s family, Leah, bless you.”

* * *

“So I… “There’s a chance he could be the savior of the oracle?”

“Yes. An enormous amount of divine power can be felt in Young master’ body. This is probably possible because he is the savior that Leah spoke of. Or a saint.”

I never thought a priest from the Holy Kingdom would want to meet with me.

Although he did not wield the holy sword, he possessed it and exercised its power.

The enormous sacred power from the holy sword cannot help but accumulate in my body.

If the bishop of the Holy Kingdom sees me in such a state, he will naturally think that I am someone chosen by God.

It’s difficult.

It is simply divine power created by using the power of the holy sword.

Seeing that the parents next to the bishop over there are happy, they must be happy that I am the main character of the oracle.

“Young master. “Would you please come to the Holy Kingdom with me?”

The bishop kneels in front of me and is at eye level with me.

If we continue like this together… Isn’t it just a misunderstanding that ends up being weird?

How could I be chosen by God if Leah doesn’t know of my existence in the first place? ….

Huh?

Leah.

Leahism.

A holy kingdom that worships Leah.

If you go to the Holy Kingdom…… Will I be able to meet Leah?

Leah… ….

2000 Years have passed and my child has grown up and become a god.

I can meet Leah again…….

No.

A person who died 2,000 years ago is going to meet a child who is now living well.

That’s not possible.

“Now, could you give me some time to think about it?”

“Of course. “As much as you want.”

After asking for understanding, I opened the door to the living room and went out.

Chin

I placed both hands on one wall of the hallway and leaned against it.

If I could talk to Leah.

Just once.

“It’s God’s choice… ….”

A voice coming from behind me.

“Ecclesia.”

“The power you use. Divine power. “It seems the bishop misunderstood the power of past lives.”

“That’s right. “I caused a misunderstanding.”

“Can’t I just say I won’t go? “Why are you so worried?”

“That… ….”

I can’t say my daughter is Leah, and this…….

“Is it to find out about the gods we talked about earlier?”

“Yeah, that’s right. “I need to learn about the gods who have changed from my previous life.”

“If that’s the case, there’s no need to follow the bishop. It would be enough to find out slowly with me. The duke has already become ours. And we are only five years old. Vision is enough.”

“Yes, but…” ….”

But if you follow along, you might be able to meet Leah.

“Still, I might be able to understand it properly once I visit. As you said, we have enough vision.”

“…… “Am I that untrustworthy?”

“Uh, huh?”

“If I leave like this, I won’t be able to see you for a while. Are you still going?”

Ecclesia’s unusual appearance.

Why are you like this today?
