I’m a NEET but When I Went to Hello Work I Got Taken to Another World (LN)
42 Tales Apostles of the Gods
Suddenly the priest called me to his room. He said he needed to talk about something else.
"Have a seat, Sister Angela"
"Yes. So what are you talking about, Priest?"
I'm talking about Lord Massal.
"Yes."
Have you been a little too immersed in Masaru lately? I wonder if the priest will piss me off.
"What has Lord Masal been like lately?
Apparently, it doesn't feel angry. I'll tell you a little bit about recent events with some peace of mind.
"I see. You seem to be getting along."
What is it? If that's what you're talking about, you can answer as many questions as you want in your free time for treatment. I guess this question came up on my face.
"The story starts here. Please keep it a secret from me now."
"Yes, priest"
"Do you know the existence of an apostle?
"Apostle... The brave man is the apostle, isn't he?
You suddenly flew the story. I'm not sure what the priest intends.
"That's right. But other than that, the Apostle existed. From time to time, the gods secretly send their apostles to help and watch over us."
This is the first time I've heard it. Is it a story that only passes to the upper levels of the temple?
"So I'm talking about Lord Massal."
Talking about Masaru again? Where's the apostolic story going?
"Could be an apostle"
"Yes!?
"You have a loud voice."
"Su, excuse me"
Masaru is the apostle?
"To the extent that it is possible at this stage. However, they say that apostles often possess high abilities, unusual powers and special knowledge. Don't you have a heart?
Speaking of which, the magical improvement is a bit unusual, and I know dishes I've never seen.
"And there's a little bit of neglect for this knowledge, isn't there? Brave men and others have been summoned from different worlds."
"Then ask Masal..."
"No, wait. I just say it's still possible, and I think it's extremely unlikely, as there are rarely apostles or anything else sent. I'm not really even thinking about that, either. Besides, if you're really an apostle, but you're hiding it, there's got to be some reason. Keep an eye out for a while."
"Yes, priest"
"But if he is an apostle, he must be shady, sunny and give his full support. Because that's what the temple of our gods is all about."
"Yes."
"Well, even if he was a normal person, he's a good young man, and he's highly magical. It wouldn't be a bad idea to keep it on edge. Angela, stay close to him. You do have a favor, don't you?
"Oh, you know... I mean favor..."
"That's okay. You should keep Angela and one of your loves. Please keep an eye on him as long as you can, as we won't be burdened with this task. But treat me normally so that I cannot disprove what I suspect is only the Apostle."
"Yes, priest"
"It's temple approved, so you can get along as well as you like. And if Lord Massal is going to give me a temple, I think it's going to be a big deal."
"Yes, sir"
"Oh, don't solicit or anything. If he's spontaneous, you're welcome."
"Okay."
Then we're done talking.
"Oh, you know. Priest. This thing is up there..."
"Of course I didn't let you know. It would be a terrible mess if I were to report this. It's only to the extent that it's highly probable. And don't let Angela tell anyone else in the temple about this."
"Yes, priest"
Free treatment in the Temple Hall previously done by Massal. There have been a few rumours and inquiries about the person who was treated. Of course, I don't know anything about it. I'm passing through. Besides, if it meant a possible apostolic, it would be a terrible commotion, as the priest put it.
And Massal is the apostle? It doesn't look that way at all. Besides, you said it was extremely possible, and I'm sure it would be a priest's mistake. But it is very good to be able to go to the mazal with dignity with the approval of the temple. The priest said to get along, too, and why don't we go see how it goes earlier today?
■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■
I was cooking something when I went to visit Massal this afternoon.
"Angela, I'm making ramen right now."
"Oh, this previous one. That was delicious."
It's a dish with a weird sounding name, but there are usually dishes that can have pasta in the soup anyway.
When Massal gave Sati this instruction, he came over and sat down.
"You're early today. What's the matter with you?
"Yeah. The orphanage hasn't been more handy lately. Can I stay here today?
When I heard that, Masaru said to me that he looked so happy.
This is the Apostle? I'm not just a jerk boy. I've come a little bit to look happy though. I knew it would be a priest's mistake. Besides, if I were a messenger, I'd never see you like this again? It seems possible. Lower end clerics like me may not even come close.
And I might not be able to eat this kind of food either. I can't do that. Let's leave the Apostolic Doubt alone for a while. It's different anyway. There's something unusual about it, but normal people. That's fine. The priest told me to treat him normally. You'll probably know the truth if you get Tirica to cooperate. But if Massal is really an apostle, and you're hiding it, you shouldn't reveal it.
Prepare dinner in the evening, including Satti and Tirica. Even so, I have ramen today, so I make enough equipment to put it on top. Satti remembers things well and is handy. Tirica is the type to do it carefully and reliably. Both are good students. Maybe it's time to teach and graduate. Then under what pretext should I come here? Shall I even pretend to teach you for a while now... let's talk to Sati for a second. Talk to Sati about Masaru. He's a very good kid for helping out with Masaru, too. He seems to be reluctant to care about being a slave, but Masaru is betta in love, and I love this kid, too. There have always been three of us, and no, there have been four tiricas. Ellie is... she's not here, okay? But I guess I'm angry that this happened. She told me not to rush out, right? But this is what happened, and I can't help it. I grew up in an orphanage. It's like my first home. Comfortable. To Masaru and his family... if that happens, I won't even let Ellie in.
In the bath, it became a habit for Sati to wash it. I don't ask them to wash anything in an orphanage except for a little kid. Exactly. I haven't had my whole body done since my first day, but it feels good. Looks like Masaru gets it done every day. I might have to listen to this carefully. No, more than that, we'll take a bath together... together... we can't. Embarrassing.
Massal seemed happy when I got out of the bath with Tirica and took a quick bath. I still need to ask the person to confirm this.
Get up from the bath and relax on the couch. Pushing my chest for a second gives me a face that doesn't look very sloppy. After all, it is a mistake to say that this is the Apostle or the Brave One. Let's say that to the priest. No, I guess it's better to keep quiet as an excuse to come this way.
After finishing the act, I asked about Massal's hometown. Looks like he went to school and was a wealthy family, but it's so normal. Nothing particularly weird about it. I also talked about myself in return. The priests know the story of being an orphan, but they've done very little to anyone else. But I want Massal to hear it right, that's what I thought.
Massal let his gaze swim perfectly as he was talking.
"What's going on?," he touched his chest when he asked. I'm in the middle of a conversation. I'm a jerk, already.
"... one more time?
■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■
Angela listens to her hometown, so she talks with a good deception. I don't know if it's an out-of-the-box world if I don't make a mistake.
And when I was listening to Angela, the menu suddenly opened and I was frightened. They ask me what happened to Angela. I grabbed my chest loosely in an attempt to deceive it. Because it's right in front of me.
"... one more time?
Let's do it! Let's think about the menu later...
By the way, contraception is done properly. She has powdered medicine and will never get pregnant for about a week if she dissolves it in a teaspoon of hot water. He seems to be a safe medicine with no side effects at all. It's a must-have for women adventurers. It's usually in a store that sells potions and stuff. Because if you get pregnant even though you're a soldier or an adventurer, you're in trouble. That's the other world. Convenient in strange places.
After I'm done, Angela went to bed, so I'll check the menu. Level four, Cleric. I knew the stats were magical and the MP was there. Skills are restored to water magic in the household system. Magic, stick technique. Skill points are 20. And fifty loyalties. Still loyalty? Probably when the menu opens beyond fifty.
But what's wrong with this? It's not like I can be at a party like Satie. I sneak up on water and healing magic? Mm-hmm. I knew it wouldn't work. Satti also noticed that even one level would make an amazing difference. Not that Angela won't notice. Let's hold off on skills.
But loyalty means I'm liked. I'm so happy. I wish I could just forget about the ruin of the world and stay like this forever.
■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■
The days of peace went on. The Forest offense went well, and I level up one. Satti got three more levels. I'm level 11 and Satie's level 10. This is what Satie's skills turned out to be.
Skill 1p
Sturdy Eagle's Eye Flesh Enhancement LV1
Cooking Lv2 Housekeeping Lv2 Sewing Lv2
Hidden Lv3 Sneak Feet Lv2 Hearing Detection Lv4 Olfactory Detection Lv3
Swordsmanship Lv4 Bow Lv5 Avoid Lv3 Shield Lv2
Concealment, olfactory detection, evasion to three. I also turned swordsmanship into four. And kept the physical strengthening. Now you won't be so late, either at a distance or in a melee. I can't help but notice that I'm losing out on the training ground and becoming even more noticeable...
Thirty days after the last time I used it, I also tried what I had been thinking since my skill reset was back.
I remember not using the point, I tried to reset the spear and bow. The points increased properly for that matter. But then I get stunned trying to use a spear and a bow. I don't remember how to use it at all. I forgot because I reset it...... glad I tried it with unwanted skills. I almost got horrible if I forgot the cooking law or something. Or would you have remembered the kind of recipe? It's too dangerous to try. Skills to be reset in the future will have to be chosen carefully.
In the meantime, I wrote in my journal that the specifications for the reset were too dangerous. Then a reply came unusual. Resetting is my only special skill, and I want you to tolerate some glitches. Knowledge forgotten in the reset again should be remembered by re-acquiring skills, maybe.
Maybe! I knew it was too dangerous to try. So you don't have such a good story. We just have to go down the tunnel. In the meantime, I wanted to use the bow as the spear was fine, so I also stuck the point for the spear and left it at level 3. I had ten points left, but I'm a little on hold. I can't use a skill reset for the time being, and I want to leave it for when it's something.
By the way, the reset couldn't be used for Satie's skills.
And when Elizabeth left for a month, and winter was getting a little colder, something of that happened -
