35 – aka wheel – 35
“Puha! I’m full! Perhaps because Priscilla is the princess, she eats only delicious things. How can you eat only delicious things and not gain weight?”
Rosé lays down on the sofa, putting on a satisfied expression, tapping her protruding stomach. She tilted her head completely and looked at me.
“Gregory, are you resting in the mental space today?”
“No, I plan to sleep here today.”
From my point of view, there were many things that were much more comfortable in the image space, but there was still work to be done.
“hehehe, then can I wake you up tomorrow?”
“… … Please.”
“yes!”
In the imaginary world, I woke up to the sound of an alarm clock or Rose calling me, but since I was sleeping here, it seemed that I would not be able to wake up on my own.
“hmm… … . Then I’ll go wash up first.”
“Yes, I will wash in the bathroom attached to my room.”
Fortunately, as it was the 11th floor used by nobles, each room had a bathroom, so Rosé and I were able to wash without any inconvenience.
Humming a song, Rose entered the bathroom. So, can we go out now?
When I went outside, Raphael, who had been waiting for me first, greeted me with a grin.
“Oh, do you have any notice?”
“… … It’s strange that he shows off like that and doesn’t notice.”
When I was eating dessert in Priscilla’s room, Raphael kept glancing at me as if he had something to say.
Come out after a little while as you notice it. It wasn’t that hard to realize that he was saying that.
“So, what did you ask to see separately to talk about?”
“Huh? Why, didn’t you think that I called you because I wanted to see you?”
Raphael stealthily approached with a sinister smile. The sight of it made me laugh out loud.
“Don’t give a damn.”
“Tch, I can’t joke. really.”
Raphael grumbled and leaned against the wall.
“There are guys who came to terrorize the dormitory.”
“… … You mean the Holy Church?”
As if surprised by my words, Raphael’s eyes widened.
“Did you know?”
I nodded without speaking.
“You still don’t know the summoner of Ifrit who attacked us, right?”
“It was Yukel, the sword of the Holy Church. What did that mean?”
“… … under. Did you even know that? I’m stupid… … .”
Raphael droops his shoulders. Taking a deep breath, she raised her head and looked at me.
“… … So you know what I’m trying to say?”
“I don’t know. What, is it something special?”
“yes? don’t you know this? whooping… … . There was something you didn’t know.”
no, how do i know that
not even god
“Did you feel strange when you saw that situation? Because Yukel, a member of the Holy Church, attacked me.”
“… … I definitely thought it was odd.”
The Holy Church is literally a church that serves the gods of the heavens.
And, to them, angels are the agents of the gods. Yukel was attacking against such a being.
“Has there been any contact from the heavenly side? If it’s the movement of the Holy Church, the heavens should be aware of it, right?”
“what? Gregory. what are you talking about When did the Holy Church decline?”
The Holy Church is ruined?
“There are a lot of parts that are empty due to memory loss during the summoning. Raphael, are you saying that the Holy Church is ruined?”
The Holy Church was also the largest religious group during the time of disaster and las. Does it make sense for such a religious group to perish?
“That’s because gods from other worlds have started to be summoned as summoned beasts. Due to the nature of the Holy Church that oppresses other religions, it was isolated and ruined little by little. In the end, he struggled to accept another religion, but… … It was too late then.”
Raphael’s eyes trembled as he said that. Even if it was the person himself, the story of the collapse of the church that followed them in the past seemed pretty sad.
“So, why did the damned Holy Church attack you?”
“——You don’t trust us anymore.”
Raphael made a shocking statement.
The Holy Church no longer believes in angels?
“Because our angels didn’t do anything when the Holy Church was getting weaker little by little. It was also a problem that there was no summoner who summoned angels in the church at the time, but we were also traveling or having fun with other summoners.”
They thought they had abandoned them… … . said Raphael.
I looked at him silently and asked cautiously.
“… … Then who are they serving now? A church would definitely need someone to believe in, right?”
At my words, Raphael smiled.
“Same. He is the Heavenly God who manages the heavens of this world.”
“… … I believe in the heavenly gods, but I don’t believe in angels, is that so?”
“Well, yes. It’s been quite a while since we didn’t receive the call of the Heavenly God, so I don’t know the details. Because the Heavenly God fell into a deep sleep with the seal of the Calamity God.”
heavenly god.
It is a story-only card that appears in the second half of the game, right before the ending, and was a U+ grade card.
In the end, Lars, who borrowed the power of the Heavenly God, seals the Disaster God, and in the process, the Heavenly God falls into a deep sleep.
I hope it will connect like this.
“Then what is their purpose now? When I ask, they say it is the annihilation of demons.”
“The extermination of demons? That’s what they’ve been doing in the past. Their goal is to completely revive the disaster.”
[Attribute: Noble] is activated.
This was also a pretty shocking story. The Sacred Church, which served the Heavenly God, wants a complete resurrection from disaster?
“I guess I need a little more explanation.”
“I don’t know too much about it, but they seem to believe that when the disaster is completely revived, the Heavenly God will return as well.”
“… … Do you sincerely believe that?”
Are those bastards sick? Then, is it the Holy Church that awakened the disaster now and is currently helping the resurrection of the disaster in the ongoing tense?
“That’s ridiculous.”
It was an absurd story to say that the church, which had been at the forefront of subjugation of disasters, is now taking the lead in reviving disasters.
“I feel sorry for those children too. He must have wanted to use any number because he had no one to trust.”
“Are you defending them? It is an unchanging fact that the church’s sword destroyed half of the dormitory and injured the students.”
“I know. I also feel responsible for it. I have only one request… … .”
I guessed roughly.
“You mean to hide the fact that the culprit who destroyed the dormitory was the Holy Church?”
“… … that’s right.”
Raphael’s expression when he said that was sad.
That figure itself seemed divine, making me realize once again that she was an angel.
“Why?”
“… … My goal is to save the children of the Holy Church. Even if they hate us now, they were children who believed in us in the past.”
“I understand roughly what you mean.”
Actually, I didn’t want to let people know that the culprits were members of the Holy Church.
The sword of the Holy Church, Yukel. She was a formidable weapon in her own right.
It was because he was also a hero who defeated countless executives of disaster along with Lars.
To me, Yukel was nothing short of a hero.
“Is there a way?”
They were a religious group.
There would never be a way to get them back in a simple or non-obvious way.
“… … Not yet.”
“Not yet. is it.”
It didn’t seem like there was a big way for Raphael either.
“Ha, first of all, I understand. I will do as you say. If we run into the Holy Church later, we’ll try to capture them alive.”
I shook my head and said so. Then, a quiet voice came from Raphael’s mouth.
“… … thank you.”
“what?”
“Thank you.”
A face mixed with sadness and joy.
The smile that the two emotions crossed was so beautiful just as it was.
“… … done. Grow up fast too. Apparently, she is staying at the 3rd castle because of her status as a princess, right?”
“… … that’s right. Because you can’t raise the level with only financial power and materials.”
It must have been because she was in the position of the princess. Summoners are also beings who grow through experience and struggle.
If it was Priscilla, there would have been extremely few events where she was in a dangerous situation.
“Anyway, I was pretty surprised. Aren’t you in a very weak state right now?”
Raphael, who changed his expression as if trying to lighten the mood, jokingly asked.
“yes. It’s about two stars now.”
“what? 2 stars? I thought it would have been a 3-star, but you kicked out Ifrit with a 2-star?”
“I am Gregory Jones.”
A very bold answer.
Raphael, who heard that answer, was puffed up. I laughed.
“that’s right. You are Gregory. Gregory Jones. An existence that even the Demon Realm could not rank. There are quite a few archangels, including me, who have suffered because of you.”
Whirik. and she turned.
Then, Raphael turned his head slightly and smiled mischievously.
Her face was flushed red.
“As expected, I have no choice but to fall for it. Shall we date?”
“… … Do you know the answer?”
“Anyway, it’s still the same.”

Gently closing her eyes, she turned her head again and walked towards Priscilla’s room.
“good night. Thank you for listening to my story today.”
“Okay, so you can sleep well too.”
Suddenly. she stopped.
“But, are you telling me to sleep well now?”
“… … Go quickly.”
“Yes yes~”
Raphael waving his arms while turning his back.
After confirming that she went into the room, I also entered the original room.
“hmm? Did you go out?”
Upon entering the room, Rose, wearing dolphin pants and a white tee, asked me while wiping her wet hair with a towel.
“Yeah, I came here to get some fresh air.”
“Certainly, the night breeze is cool~”
After wiping off the moisture from her hair, Rose threw the towel on the table.
Then, she uses a simple magic to blow dry her hair.
Whether it was done once or twice, the look was very natural.
“Rosé.”
“yes?”
Rosé, who was brushing her hair against the wind, looked at me.
“I think I should dye my hair.”
“… … Is that so too?”
Rosé’s black hair, which only showed the top of her head, was already expanding its power.
“I have to go to the beauty salon as soon as the academy ends tomorrow. Ha, it’s boring to stay still while dyeing your hair.”
Certainly, there are no smartphones in this world, so I didn’t know that such worries were natural.
“Then let’s go tomorrow.”
“really?!”
“Yes, there are times when I want to try a different style.”
Even in the game, there were characters who could change their hairstyle from time to time, and I suddenly wondered if that would apply to me as well.
“yes! So good!”
Rosé, who dried her hair while talking, smiled and jumped from her seat.
It’s a hair salon… … .
Let’s think slowly about what kind of hair to do.
“Ah, Gregory. Are you attending class tomorrow?”
“What is class tomorrow?”
“hmm… … . Swordsmanship, magic, history, and self-defense in the morning, and sparring in the afternoon.”
Tomorrow would be Marvas’ first day at work, so taking his class didn’t seem too bad.
Magic and self-defense sounds pretty fun too.
“Let’s hear it together tomorrow.”
“yes! All right!”
It’s Marvas’ class.
Indeed, I began to look forward to how the demon would harass the other students.
