Fake Saint Of The Year

Episode 50 Prophet (1st Half)

After that, some monkeys missed me.

The Guardians have been saying something around me since the monster attacked me a few decades ago.

I thought another Guardian came from beyond the door, and he was stabbing a wooden stick with meat that he thought had burned a bird.

I don't even have a plate to put it on, but what a leaf I am replacing with a plate.

Why are these guys moving trains?

Is this train really okay?

"Masajoise! Kuniyimbachii! Zoudo!

Saying something, he offered me some meat.

And thank you for saving my life or something?

No, I don't really want to eat just baked meat.

Or maybe that's the bird you just knocked down.I don't need it.

I haven't eaten that much in the first place, even after it became my body.

In my previous life, I used to eat like a human before I got sick, but it was rather energy-saving after I became Ellise.

After learning the magic circle, the tendency became stronger, and now I can spend about five days without drinking or eating, and I don't really want to go to the bathroom.

Ellise was supposed to be a big eater.

That's right, the Guardian himself, who is serving me meat, is looking at the bird meat greedily and drooling to his saliva.

"... please, don't hesitate to share.I'm not hungry right now. "

"Massajoise! Issaya!

When I urged you to eat it, I began to roam with great joy.

I don't care why they call me Masajoise.

Then, getting tired of spending time with monkeys, the train eventually stopped in front of the forest.

Looks like we've reached our destination.

"Tashimaki."

My guardian prompted me to get off, and me and the old man get off.

Then the Guardian got off the train with Wallawala and surrounded himself to protect me and my old man.

"Sudexanoko, Masajoise, Teketsu, Kinetomosia."

I think you're probably saying something to me because it contains the word Masajoise, but I don't know what you're saying.

The leading guardian started walking, and as a result, me and my old man moved into the woods.

The woods are... reasonably peaceful.

An animal like a squirrel jumped from tree to tree on my shoulder.

A bird stops at the tree and rings, and a cat the size of a tiger comes out of the tree.

What... did the cat evolve into a tiger size, or did the tiger grow up and look like a cat... well, either way.

Anyway, it's a type of cat that doesn't exist on Earth.

I think I see many things because I hunt monsters frequently, but I don't see many wildlife in this world.

"Sudexanoco"

The Guardian stops and prompts him to go ahead with his hand.

Is there a prophet ahead of us?

Now, shall we go face-to-face?

Me and the old man leave the guardian behind to move on.

But at the same time, I heard voices from the back.

"I've been expecting you... only Ellise can move on."

Is the Lord of this voice a prophet?

I don't think you know my name because you can predict the birth of the Virgin... even though you haven't named me yet.

Even if I knew the name of the Virgin, I was a fake.I can't explain it.

The old man looked at us worriedly and nodded to reassure him, then proceeded to the back.

Eventually, what followed was an unnaturally open space surrounded by trees.

There is only one lake there, nothing else.

The Prophet is nowhere to be found.

Or should I jump into this lake?

I thought so, and when I tried to peek into the lake, the water rose and something came out.

It was the tortoise that came out.

I wonder if the size of the armor alone is 5m.

A turtle the size of which one can swim on board.

Well, I guess we should get on this guy and go into the lake.

Something like Taro Urashima.

"Well done, truly transcendent false Virgin.

I've been waiting for you.

I'm a professor... and people call me a prophet. "

When I was thinking of getting on, the turtle opened its mouth and started talking.

And it came to pass that the tortoise was the prophet, when he thought that he would guide him unto the prophet.

I see, this is what the old man said when he saw me...

As a prophet, I imagined humans on my own, but they weren't even human in the first place...

I mean, a talking animal is a monster.Rather, it's the Great Demon.

Isn't this actually the witch's minion or something?

"A monster...?

"It's cool, it's not impossible for you to think so.

But I'm not a monster.

It's just a turtle chosen by the world to speak for the world. "

What kind of power word is a turtle chosen by the world?

I know what you're trying to say.

The Virgin is, to say the least, the chosen person in the world.

This professor is the same as the one chosen by the world.

But why turtles?I don't understand this.

"Do you want to know why you're a turtle?It's nothing.

Simply because it has a longer lifespan than people.

My species, the Millennium Turtle, can live for more than a thousand years if it's a living individual.

It must be the will of the world to live longer and to continue to prophesy the birth of the Virgin. "

I see. In other words, we have reduced the time needed to change generations.

But the question is, wouldn't it be nice if the Virgin wasn't human?That's what I mean.

Humans aren't fundamentally combat-oriented in the first place.It is said that if we do this, we will lose to the house cat.

If you train in this world, you will be able to move superhuman stained, and there is magic, so that's not necessarily the case, but the basic spec is still beast > human.

If so, a bear or tiger that is much stronger than a human being would be a saint (?), and if you give them magic and intelligence, they will be much stronger than the Virgin of the past.

Of course, I'm not as confident as I am.

That's why you call a strong animal the Virgin (?) Then... then... then... then... then...

... ah, no.I can't reach the witch.

In order for the Virgin to face the witch, we must first deal with the witch's surroundings, the monster, and the Great Devil.

In other words, we need to advance at the expense of knights and soldiers, but if, for example, a bear is a saint, humans will not try to protect it in the first place.

I can't tell you apart from monsters.

If the prophet tells us, "This bear is a saint," will the knights then shield their lives?

It's a bear to protect.

That's why we can't do the same without the help of humans.

No matter how intelligent the Virgin Bear is, the other animals remain animals.I'm not going to shield him.

In other words, if you make the Virgin a non-human, the lonely struggle will be confirmed at that point.

No matter how strong it is, it's impossible.Killed by the difference in the amount of monsters.

"You called me a false Virgin.Then you know who I am.... "

"Oh, I know.You're not a saint.

Just another person born in the same village as the Virgin and full of talent. "

Hmm, you know what I mean?

Well, he himself prophesied the birth of the Virgin.

You'll see the difference between a Virgin and someone who isn't.

But I can't figure out why you knew my name.And how did you know I was coming?
