I Became a Priest Who Was Bullied. 156

Chapter 156 – 37. Priest, Have You Seen It? (3)

I was lucky. Contrary to my worries that I might come back empty-handed, my hands were full of canned food. I should have brought something to put it in, but that was a bit disappointing.

Thank god. Find something to eat.

Food boxes loaded on some of the washed-up boats were also washed away. Of course, they were all tasteless-preserved foods, but I was so grateful that I could just stuff them into my mouth, so I hurriedly picked up the canned food buried on the beach.

“I’m going to put it… Don’t you have anything to put in it?”

Look around. I wish I had at least some discarded cloth, but in my current state, no matter how much I carried, it was only enough food for 2–3 days.

“Oh yeah. “I can use that.”

It was dangerous to stay there for too long, so quickly look away. A leaf the size of a person is immediately stepped on. I’m not sure if it’s a plant I can touch, but I wasn’t in a position to think about such things, so I put down the canned food I was holding. Without a single thought, I tore off a leaf the size of my gesture with all my might.

Ttuk-ttuk-

“Whoa… Done. Let’s put it in quickly.”

Tearing off the stem. Afterward, the canned food that was placed on the floor is poured out onto the leaves.

I put enough food in for at least a week for both Sylvia and me and wrapped the contents up. After tying a knot with a vine, he carried it on his shoulder and walked to the cave where Sylvia was waiting.

Ugh… It’s heavy…

Did I get too greedy for no reason? I should have checked in advance whether I could lift it, but it weighed more than I expected. Well, it’s not like you can’t hear it at all.

It just became a little difficult to keep the balance, but it hasn’t become a big obstacle yet.

Oh!

Phew!

As I was moving forward with such difficulty, the cries of the demonic beast came through my reddened ears. It was clearly a sound coming from far away, beyond a mountain peak, but was it because I was so nervous? At that moment, goosebumps appeared all over my body, and I was engulfed in indescribable fear.

@@@@@

Almost on the verge of exhaustion. I finally reached the front of the cave. Just a few minutes ago, I was shivering from the cold, but now it was so hard that sweat was beading on my forehead.

I think it was bearable at first, but I don’t know. After climbing up the slope, it almost felt like my body was being torn apart.

The muscles of the legs and arms were screaming for help. In the end, I almost dragged my luggage.

“Huh… What kind of trouble is this? .”

It’s wrong. Sweat is almost streaming down my face. Since I am walking barefoot, the soles of my feet are covered in dirt. Although it was said to be surrounded by divine power, this did not last long.

Sighing like that, I finally entered the cave where Sylvia was. I threw the luggage I brought with me into that corner. I immediately went to check Sylvia’s safety.

“Silvia?”

I turn my back on her light and head towards her place where I laid her down. An elongated human figure appears in the shortened field of view on the rock. When she frowned and looked closely, she saw Sylvia sitting with her head down and swaying from side to side.

What? Have you woken up already?

Considering the injuries Sylvia sustained, she will likely be bedridden for at least a week. In the meantime, she needs to get plenty of rest. From what I knew, I remembered it as being common.

Yes, if it’s a normal person.

What on earth are the Ronin people doing?

From the information I have gathered, I understand that they are mainly located in the northern part of the country and live in groups. Additionally, because the environment is so harsh, their bodies are naturally strong. I don’t know if it’s a characteristic of the wolf race, but because of their underlying superior physical abilities, they also had a strong tendency to look down on other races.

Thanks to this, it is said that even if 10 or 10 strong generals attack me at once, I won’t be able to do anything.

Anyway, if you look at it roughly, it was close to an ogre.

But, it’s still like that.

If you ask me if the wound I suffered yesterday is at a level where I can come to my senses in one day…

That’s not it again.

I clearly remember that the internal injuries to my abdomen were severe. Damage to organs, not just muscles or anywhere else, would have taken at least a few months, but I wonder what kind of magic he had done, as he sat on the rock and stared at me with his eyes half-open.

“Are you okay, Sylvia?”

I approached him and asked about his condition. Sylvia’s tail suddenly swayed from side to side. Her face was almost dead, and her tail was wagging back and forth like a dog welcoming its owner after work.

“Seo, saint…”

She scratches her neck and speaks in a voice that sounds like she’s about to go off at any moment. If she was tired, she would lie down. She braced herself against the rock and somehow managed to get up.

“I’m not feeling well, so don’t get up.”

He quickly runs over to her and puts his groaning shoulders down with both hands and makes her lie down again. No matter how fast her recovery is, if she continues in her current state, something serious could happen.

In fact, she only looks fine on the outside, and all of Sylvia’s pain has just been transferred from her body to her mind. She could have suffered permanent damage to her brain if she had done something useless.

“Ha… Ha… Saint, how did this happen… Ugh…”

Silvia can’t even finish her sentence, probably because she’s having a hard time. She then frowned and groaned in pain as she struggled. I gently pressed her lips with my index finger to prevent her from doing anything unnecessary.

“Do not speak. Take a rest first. I’ll tell you everything later. Yes?”

Recovery. First recovery. The second one also recovered. The third is all about recovery.

It was obvious that he was already so drunk with divine power that his head was going to explode, so I told him not to think about anything for now.

“Ugh… Eww…”

Silvia’s eyes are forced closed. Because we need to minimize the information entering the brain as much as possible. She had to reduce everything she could hear, say, or feel.

“Saint…”

“Oh! “Don’t say anything!”

Oh, this guy doesn’t really listen. Hagisa is a human who used to fight with a demonic beast and say that when he got injured, he would get better just by applying acupuncture. He seemed to have too much faith in the fact that he was strong because he was from the Ronin clan, but it only took a moment.

Flutter-

I leave Sylvia behind and unpack the baggage I had packed with her leaves. I rummaged around inside and took out a bluish herb. It was nothing else but a healing herb I found while walking down the road.

Originally, it was rare and difficult to obtain…

Is it because it is a continent untouched by humans? It was surprisingly common to see, like the grass that grew on the way back.

Other than that, I was lucky enough to find angelica root and ginseng root.

Originally, I had to boil it all and eat it for it to be effective, but since I wasn’t in a position to do that right now, I just grinded it on a stone.

After roughly grinding the herbs. Reach out and take the lid off the can. Pong-! The faint smell of Cheonggukjang creeps up along with the sound. Food that I would normally hate to see looked just as delicious as chicken or pizza.

I swallow the saliva in my mouth and sprinkle finely ground medicinal herbs on it. I feel like I want to devour it right now, but the patient came first. I mixed it well with a wooden spoon and took it to Sylvia, who was suffering.

“Silvia, please do it. Ah.”

“Ah…”

Using my knee as a pillow, I lie down looking at the sky and scoop up a can of food and feed it to Sylvia. She must have been hungry for a long time, and she ate whatever I gave her. There is a mixture of medicinal herbs that help relieve mental illness, so I think it will get better after a while.

“Umm… Cellar…”

A can is emptied in the blink of an eye. However, Sylvia is still growling as if she is hungry. When I asked her if she needed another one, her ears perked up, and she nodded mercilessly.

At this rate, there won’t be anything left to eat soon…

The food habits of the Ronin tribe were overlooked. These children consume three to four times as many calories as the average person, so it was natural that this amount was insufficient.

Only after emptying three or four more cans did Sylvia finally look at ease.

She slowly opened her closed eyes and spoke to me.

“Saint, but why… Naked…”

“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you everything later. Please don’t think about anything now and just sleep. Yes?”

“… Yes.”

She smiled faintly and stroked her head, and Sylvia dozed off, probably relaxing her. Within a few minutes, she drifted off into dreamland, and I quietly moved out of the way so as not to wake up, and belatedly filled my hungry stomach.

Ah… I’m full…

I emptied a couple of cans in a squatting position and immediately leaned my back against the wall. I feel full by patting my protruding stomach.

Phew… Have I ever had such a delicious meal in my life? I don’t think the six-o-jang that I ate while marching in the military wasn’t this good, but I ate it all, including the sauce, and emptied it as cleanly as a new container.

Surely you couldn’t eat even half of it while you were on the boat? They said they didn’t want to eat it, so they gave it to the fish as food, but looking at it now, it was a completely incomprehensible behavior.

Anyway, after taking a little rest, I get up. I stay next to Sylvia from time to time to check on her condition.

I, who was standing still, soon began to slowly close my eyes as I was bitten by the horse.
