Chapter 12 – Goddess (1)
*
There was a commotion in front of the inn. Priests in white were crowding around, so I had no choice but to draw attention.
“They’re the priests of the Elena Church, aren’t they?”
“Oh…Goddess Elena…”
“Goddess. Bless us…”
As befits the Empire’s first religion, there were a lot of followers of Elenaism. Most of the people who had gathered were members of the Elena Church.
Looking out from her inn, Lina frowned at her. And not long after, a knock was heard.
Knock Knock Knock
“Excuse me. I’m from Elena Church. I want to talk to you for a moment.”
‘Why did the goddess-year-old’s subordinates come?’
It wasn’t long before I met the regressor. It’s never happened like this before, but it seems to be related to the regressor, seeing as it suddenly came.
But Lina just shook her head, saying she didn’t know.
As long as the other side comes out politely, I decided to open the door.
When I opened the door, I saw a pretty priest and the priestesses smiling kindly in the back.
“Thank you for opening the door. My name is Tina, priestess of the Elena Church.”
‘Beauty… Mister!’
“First of all, I’m sorry for coming to you without a word. But it’s not to harm you all, but to convey the will of the goddess.”
However, no matter how beautiful she is, her opponent is a priest of the Elena Church. She couldn’t believe it so easily. When she only thought of Elena, she calmly listened to the story, suppressing the anger that swelled.
“A revelation has come down. She’s Lina. She’s heard that Lady Knightley is staying here.
“That’s me.”
“Ah. I see… You really feel the dignity of receiving revelations.”
“It’s too much praise.”
Actually, our Lina is very pretty.
“The goddess told the revelation to invite Lina to the temple.”
‘Isn’t it because the returner and I met and called each other?’
Apparently, I too was chosen by the goddess and fell into another world. Of course, the first meeting with the goddess was not good.
Because she was a goddess with the ability to understand words.
However, he did not expect to mention Kerry at all while sending his priest.
‘Not bad for me. She didn’t say it because it was embarrassing to say that she was chosen by a goddess…If she would hide it from that side too…’
As the eyes of the goddess were her only food supply, it was only natural that she wanted to hide them.
The priest talked about the revelation and the doctrine of the goddess for a long time, then got to the point.
The gist is so.
“Lina-sama. Would you like to go to the temple with us?”
It was this. Regarding Lina’s personality, she thought that if it was the word of a goddess, she would die hard to follow, but she noticed that she was shy.
It’s probably because of the pigs and skeletons.
‘It doesn’t matter if Lina doesn’t go to the temple like this… But it’s pissing me off.’
These fuckers didn’t care about me in the slightest. They don’t even ask for your name.
At this point, I had no choice but to listen. Why did he give me the eyes he didn’t ask for and give Lina a return?
‘If there is no real good reason, everything is overturned.’
I will do whatever I can to feed the goddess bitch.
Keri sneaked up to Lina and whispered in her ear.
“Lina-sama. Why don’t you go and see it? The Elena religion is established as the state religion in the Empire, so it has considerable influence. If you fall out with them, you may be inconvenient to work in the Empire from now on.”
“…Yes. If Kerry says so, it wouldn’t hurt to go.”
As Rina is also her regressor of her, she must be busy with a mountain of things to do, but for now, I felt like I was being listened to.
Lina’s voice gets louder as she talks with her priest at the door. She was a little upset by Lina’s return to her and her story to her.
She said, “Only I, who was invited, can go to the temple. You guys say you can’t.”
“…”
Natasha gently held my hand on her bed her. She looked like she was afraid that she would leave her self behind.
‘Ah… The sarcasm is fucking hurtful.’
Rina is the only warrior, is this? Then what do I mean? Why did you arbitrarily bring me to this world?
If this is the case, send it back to Korea immediately!
“Of course, I declined the invitation because I had no intention of going to the temple until I was separated from everyone.”
‘That’s it! Our regressor is the highest dignity!’
“That’s also true. There’s a lot of work to do in the future, but I don’t think it’s necessary to go to the point of being torn apart.”
Quick attitude change. If the Goddess treats me like this, then I have no choice but to be crooked.
“A goddess without buds.”
Her old woman said something cool for the first time in a while.
“There’s no reason for me to follow them anyway. I’m not a member of the Empire, and I’m not a member of the Elena Church.”
‘My Lina speaks well!’
The priests of Elena Church, who could not leave their seats despite Lina’s strong refusal of her, were embarrassed as if they were in trouble.
‘Looks good. Goddess’ minions! Ahaha!’
By the way, I hate goddesses, but I also hate believers in this stupid goddess. However, beauty followers are excluded.
“It’s unusual, but… I wondered if something like this would ever happen, so the goddess gave a revelation to bring everyone along at a time like this.”
It’s very arbitrary. It’s ridiculous. But why does the goddess want to invite us so much?
‘Why is Goddess Year trying to take care of Lina while ignoring me? She never called me in two years…’
The sarcasm was so damn hurt that a hard expression came out. The priests and priestesses were restless at my irritation for no reason, but what did they mean?
It’s the fault of those who believe in that stupid goddess.
“For your reference… Not only do we always promise you the best treatment at the temple, but we also have a gift from the goddess. We don’t know what the gift from the goddess is, but we don’t know what the gift is, but the additional gift we prepared is high-grade holy water. , Advanced healing potions, etc.”
‘High-level holy water? An advanced healing potion?’
When I looked at Lina as if I was surprised by the story I was hearing for the first time, I saw a calm expression. As if she knew.
‘No! They’re giving me something so nice, but of course I should have said I was going!’
If it was a high-level holy water, it would easily exceed a few gold. Of course, selling holy water is prohibited, but there is always a demand for anything in the dark. In addition, there is an advanced healing potion. It was as if he had a spare life.
“Well. They’ve prepared this much, and they’ve changed the conditions so that everyone can come together, so it wouldn’t be too bad to go.”
“I had a lot of other urgent matters earlier, so I thought it would be better not to go…”
‘This is the woman! That’s when I didn’t hear the reward!’
Religious items such as holy water are difficult to obtain. The gift prepared by the jjeori will be like that, but what a gift from the goddess!
“Well, I’m curious about what a gift from a goddess is.”
‘I’m going to argue with the goddess bitch.’
“Honestly, I’m curious about that too. But…”
“I don’t know what the gift of the goddess is, but it’s likely to be of great help in our journey in the future, right? In addition, if Natasha’s injury is treated by the priests, it might be possible to recover faster .”
“Then it wouldn’t hurt to go.”
It comes off surprisingly easily. The regressor is fluttering. I need to make a note of it.
“Is Natasha able to move her body her too?”
“Yes. Mr. Seo. There is no problem at all in moving.”
When I asked the old woman for a doctor with her eyes on her, she answered.
“I don’t care if Natasha is okay.”
So, the schedule was decided by the temple. Lina seemed to be worried about the behavior of the skeleton and the pig, but her expression was a bit unsuitable.
*
Lina and the others rode on a wagon provided by the temple and moved. It was a journey that took more than a day, but it wasn’t too bad because the temple was very hospitable.
The wagon was top-notch, and so was the food served.
Above all, Kerry liked the cute reactions of the goddesses. The priests living in the temple didn’t have many opportunities to see young men, but the way they looked at Kerry was full of good feelings.
Occasionally, there were priestesses who secretly flirted with me for being handsome.
“You are handsome. Adventurer!”
“Wow… Look at how nice your skin is.”
“By any chance… Which family are you a descendant of?”
In modern times, it was a flat hit, but here it is treated as a chew hit. It wasn’t such a bad feeling.
Thanks to being with a regressor these days, the reaction seemed to be better because I ate well and washed well.
“Forgive me for the rudeness. Since children rarely face men…”
“Yes Yes. It’s okay.”
Hierarch Tina seemed to keep face of her as she befits her position of her. Anyway. It wasn’t such a bad trip.
“West. I don’t like them.”
Natasha had a troubled expression throughout the trip, though. Lina stared out the window to see what she was thinking, looking lost in thought.
‘Isn’t it nice to go see the goddess?’
Isn’t the person who made Lina’s return the goddess? If it were me, I think I would have died.
‘Come to think of it, even when I was first invited by the goddess, I didn’t seem to welcome it…Why?’
“Lina. Aren’t you happy to go to the temple?”
“…”
Lina looked out the window for a while. It was to the point where I could feel the elegance of the arrogant atmosphere and beauty.
“I do not know. First of all… Because I don’t believe in Elenaism. I don’t even know why Goddess Elena is calling me.”
“!”
Lina wasn’t a Christian of Elena. Then why did Elena bring Lina back?
[Skill – Goddess Returner (Unmeasurable)]
I checked the status window, but the skill name was still the same. Well, if you think about it carefully, I was chosen by the goddess even though I wasn’t even from another world.
‘They didn’t give me fraudulent skills like regression, but… ‘
Still, Lina’s cold attitude towards the goddess was a bit suspicious. In any case, it was because I wondered if he had been acquainted with the goddess if he had received the ability of her.
Rina was staring blankly out the window, as if she didn’t want to say more about this. It’s a picture even though I’m blank. It’s a picture
Rina looked out the window and recalled her past life her. In that terrible war, the gods did not grant his prayers of her.
People went mad and killed each other, and the wide meadow was stained with blood.
What does god mean what is a temple
There was nothing but madness in that war. Even his very strong comrades he died in the war.
None survived.
I don’t think we’ll ever allow such a terrible hell to descend into the present world. Do you want to watch your colleagues die again?
Rina clasped her hands tightly.
The first is the White Witch. Her magic talent surpasses Lina’s in her. There may be no one on the continent who can defeat her with magic.
The combination of followers who did not spare their lives in the midst of a great war and the White Witch really felt like a terrible disaster.
Stopping the White Witch, who was also supposed to be sealed, was the most urgent problem.
‘A few days at the temple would be fine. The White Witch’s seal is not so easy to break.’
I heard that in my previous life, I sacrificed the lives of hundreds of people to break the seal of the White Witch. Just thinking about the terrible magic of sacrificing people makes me shudder.
‘I have to be strong. Enough to protect everyone. I don’t want to sacrifice an innocent anymore.’
The carriage ran all night. He said he would arrive at the temple tomorrow morning.
It’s not a bad night.
It didn’t work out as well as I thought, but it felt good to see my colleagues gathered around the torchlight and talking. The conversation was a bit odd, though.
“Seobangnim, until when do we use each room?”
“…Because I am not the West. Wouldn’t it be better to write each room? Natasha.”
“Too bad. But I think I’m pregnant. These days, I have no appetite, and I get nauseous… It’s like morning sickness. Didn’t you forget that you promised to marry me if you were pregnant?”
“Phew! Are you having morning sickness? Wait… Not much time has passed since then, but it can’t be… “
“Ah, whatever! A woman’s intuition that she is indeed pregnant! Have a wedding!”
“If it were you, I could recognize you as your son-in-law. Don’t worry about living with your wife’s family.”
“I’m not getting married.”
No one will die in this lifetime. Certainly. Lina made that promise.

It was dawn with a crescent moon. Everyone was asleep in front of the campfire, sharing the warmth.
Kerry jumped up and looked around. The vigilant priestess was dozing off.
‘Thank god. It’s itchy, so I have to be patient.’
There is a reason why Natasha, who kept trying to sleep next to her, had to be separated from her. To be honest, sleeping next to me wasn’t a problem, it was a happy thing, but it was because I had something to do.
In Kerry’s hand was a mandulmandeule marble.
It is the white witch’s seal.
Kerry was going to visit the White Witch tonight.
‘If I don’t go tonight… I don’t know when I’ll be able to go again.’
Above all, she is on the verge of finally learning the magic she has been waiting for so long. Can’t wait
Kerry went deep into the forest without anyone noticing. Then, like the hologram seen on the bead, I pressed the password for the transparent door lock.
In the forest, Kerry’s figure disappeared as if it had never existed.
