“I, I did wrong.”
The deputy priest slightly closed his eyes, appearing to be contemplating something.
Watching him, Prodia realized.
‘The deputy priest knows about Papiere’s dual personality too.’
Moreover, he doesn’t seem to want to hide that fact in front of us. Then, he must have noticed that he met Luca.
And, as expected, the deputy priest opened his mouth to Prodia.
“Believer?”
“Yes.”
“You already know what I’m talking about, don’t you?”
There is no point in hiding it anymore.
“…Yes, I do.”
Then, suddenly, the deputy priest bowed his head to Prodia.
Prodia exclaimed in surprise.
“De, Deputy Priest?”
“This matter is my fault for not properly educating the priest. I will apologize on his behalf.”
“It’s fine. It was just a misunderstanding between us.”
“But…”
Raising his head, the deputy priest now asked Eurtis.
“How did you know that the believer was in trouble?”
Prodia, too, paid close attention to his words.
Because she was summoned to the deputy priest’s office right away, she hadn’t properly heard about the earlier situation.
The deputy priest asked again.
“Are you the participant who ran out during the oath ceremony?”
At the deputy priest’s question, Eurtis sighed and nodded his head.
“…Yes.”
Hearing that, Prodia’s eyes nearly popped out.
‘What? He ran out during the ceremony?’
Prodia sent a telepathy to Eurtis.
[What happened? You said the oath ceremony ended well!] [It did end… without me.]Prodia felt like she was going insane.
What on earth should we do about this?
But then the deputy priest asked the next question.
“Then there is only one answer. You used magic inside the deputy’s hall.”
“……”
Eurtis didn’t answer, and Prodia was deep in thought.
‘The reason the deputy priest apologized to me first was to gain momentum to pry into this, damn it!’
Prodia quickly started to think.
Will this be reported to the royal family? Could Eurtis lose his participant qualification?
How do we get out of this situation?
Then, astonishing words came from the deputy priest’s mouth.
“Normally, this should be punished as a grave crime. But if you’ll grant me a favor, I will consider this matter as if it never happened.”
Prodia did not miss the unexpected lifeline and grabbed hold of it.
“What favor do you ask?”
“A young priest told me. The esteemed teacher has taken an interest in training participants for the Buma competition again.”
Wait, that guy already spread the rumor?
The Deputy Chief pointed at Papiere and smiled gently at Prodia.
“I have one request. Please personally teach this child and send her to the Buma Selection Competition.”
“What?”
At the unexpected remark, everyone in the office froze.
Send Papiere to the Buma Selection Competition?
The first to break the silence was Papiere.
Her voice was trembling.
“No, are you joking? Deputy Chief, you want me to go to the Buma Competition? I am a body serving the god!”
“Papiere.”
The Deputy Chief spoke with a compassionate expression.
“This is all for you.”
(This is a time separator.)
Papiere.
She was of commoner origin, without even a surname.
Originally, commoners could not become priests, but Papiere was an exception.
Because she was born with a powerful divine force.
That most sacred light in history eventually reached the Deputy Shrine.
In search of the one who manifested this astonishing divine force, the Deputy Chief scoured the empire, even mobilizing holy knights.
And finally, he met Papiere in a commoner’s village.
Papiere, being shy, refused to follow the holy knights.
However, her parents took the money and sold her to the Deputy Shrine.
Thus, the child most despised in the Aibem Empire became a priest in the sacred area in an instant.
Regardless of Papiere’s will, she became a ‘walking miracle’ and a great strength to the Deputy Shrine.
Then, one day.
Suddenly, the ‘Luca’ with red eyes appeared.
“I do not know how many priests have been dismissed because of Luca, Deputy Chief.”
The Deputy Chief’s office.
A senior priest reported to him.
The Deputy Chief’s hand stopped as he was reading the documents.
He leaned back in his chair without responding, silently closing his eyes.
The senior priest asked again.
“Deputy Chief, will you really just watch Luca like this?”
“Luca, she’s definitely Papiere. Be careful in the future.”
“But!”
“Make sure the priests keep their mouths shut to avoid confusion.”
The senior priest was at a loss.
“……Understood.”
“On your way out, can you call that child to my room?”
“Of course.”
And shortly after, someone’s footsteps were heard.
Unhesitant and lively steps.
Without confirming with the eyes, one could tell which of the two had come.
‘…It’s Luca.’
Then the door opened, and Luca entered.
The Deputy Chief asked in a cold voice.
“Luca, you teased the priest again this time.”
Then Luca replied with a baffled expression.
“Teasing? That’s unfair. I just went out to play with her.”
“Because of your frivolous actions, she has been deprived of her priesthood.”
“Ah, did it end up like that?”
Luca smiled slyly.
“That’s good. She never wanted to be a priest in the first place. It’s too wasteful to rot away your youth in a place like this because of wrong parents.”
“You brat!”
The Deputy Chief yelled at him, his eyes bloodshot.
But Luca was not intimidated.
“What do you want me to do? You’re the one who trapped Papiere in this hell. So I have to be here too.”
“Hell, watch your blasphemous words. This is the Deputy Shrine, under the protection of God.”
“To me, it’s a prison.”
The Deputy Chief, who had stood up, approached him.
“This is the last warning. Don’t come out in Papiere again.”
“It’s strange. Why do you think I’m the one inside Papiere?”
“…What?”
“Have you ever thought that I’m the master of this body, and Papiere is the accessory?”
The Deputy Chief’s eyes wavered.
Luca continued.
“Haven’t you ever thought about what the real life we want to live is like?”
That was the last conversation between the Deputy Chief and Luca.
His pupils turned gold, and he soon lost consciousness.
After that, Luca did not appear for a while.
Until today, before meeting Prodia.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
