We added a new associate named Flair to the party and left the Kingdom of Bordeaux behind.First we headed for the neighboring kingdom of Strom.Since the demons have ravaged the country and are rebuilding it, I don't think they can afford to listen to us, but it wasn't.

You're alive.

"Yeah, I feel more people than I did when I first came here."

Karin, who agreed with my murmuring, was observing Kyrokyolo and the city.When the Demons attacked, it must have been the same as the pile of debris.There should have been bodies scattered everywhere, and desperate people mourning.The rubble is cleaned up and there are temporary shops lined up on the street.Many of the people who interacted were men with tight bodies, and it was thought that their manual workers were the driving force of reconstruction.A crowd of groceries and simple lodgings were crowding out for them, entering the alley a little, and even the women who gave them a temporary dream.

"I'm not completely destroyed, but I've suffered a lot of damage..."

Rubias murmured impressively.Of course, not all the good things came to mind.The number of beggars is higher than before, and soldiers patrolling for security are constantly looking around.There are not many vagrants wandering around looking at the food on the street.I'm sure the country is working hard, but I don't think we can afford to save everything.

"I want to do something about it, but there's nothing we can do about it."

"Yeah, I'm sorry, but I can't help it."

While staring at the vagrants, Sierre and Dierea muttered in a dark face.They're right.Even if we hit them with all the money and fed them, it's only a temporary complacency.We are far from a radical solution.After we leave, we'll just get hungry again.

"So let's do what we can.That should indirectly save them. "

Everyone nodded. The richer the country, the more food and more work.Naturally, we're going to need manpower, and we should be able to work with kids.

"No, maybe we can do something about them now."

I was surprised at Mr Flair who suddenly said such a thing.The purpose of coming here is to stir up the people.It's hard to imagine that Flare-san forgot that...

"What do you mean, Flare?"

"It's a little flash. I was wondering if I could use the temple."

Someday, Karin got nasty.In contrast to Mr Flair, who laughs like a prank, we're just shrugging our necks.Do you want me to donate to take care of them?

"Fufu. Now, let's get to the temple."

That's how Mr. Flair walked out.All we had to do was shut up and follow.

§ §§

Mr Flair came to the temple of Lumiere.As a matter of course, even if Lumiere of the Lumiere main mountain were dropped, it would not even be a temple scattered all over the place.The temple also seemed to have received news of the fall of Lumiere, and the priest who responded welcomed Mr. Flair with a blue face.

"Master Flare, I don't know what to say this time..."

"It's not that you get sick.Without strength, Lumiere fell, but not to our faith.If we don't forget our prayers to God, we may one day be able to get Lumiere back. "

"Master Flare....."

Seeing the behavior alone, it was exactly what they called a saint.In fact, the priest looks at Mr Flair with an impressive look.It's like starting to worship.But now Mr. Flair is different from the old days, better or worse.She opened her mouth to the priest, smiling at the merciful Virgin.

"So naturally, I want you to cooperate.In order to regain Lumiere, we need to combine the forces of the Lumiere religion, which is scattered all over the country. "

"That's... obvious. I will help you, too."

Mr Flair smiles loudly.

"First of all... can you donate 500 gold coins?"



500 gold coins!? What are you suddenly saying, Mr. Flair?The priests who suddenly told me to give a lot of money are hardened, and everybody's eyes are round.It's no negotiation to make a lot of money after a brief greeting.It's a way of approaching threats. I couldn't imagine the way Flair would do it, and I couldn't speak.There's nothing that bothers us, and Mr. Flair looks around the reception room.

"Looks like the wings are pretty good.I'm sure you're saying that Lumiere is poor in doctrine? "

"Well, that's...."

They follow us around the room.When I was told, I realized that all the furniture was expensive.A painting depicting a picture you don't know well, or a fluffy carpet that can sink to your ankles.The desk where they work seems to be made of trees with year-long rings, and the chairs are decorated with stunning gold.The temple in the city of Sufoua didn't end there... while Mr Flair hunted down the priest.

"Well, no matter how you say it in doctrine, it's human.Some luxury may be tolerated. "

He was a priest with an expression of relief in his words for a moment, but froze again at the next moment.

"But this is more than once.If you have enough money, why can't you reach out to the people who suffer in your city? "

"Well... we've been busy a lot..."

"What exactly is busy?Are you going to fatten your stomach? "

…………

Mr Flair's strict gaze did not catch the priest and let him go.Most people tremble when they're stared at by someone as capable as her, although they're not letting go.

"... as it stands, I will have to break you down as the representative of the Lümyer religion."

"Oh, no! Please don't do that!"

The priest, who passed through the blue and looked like a dead man, jumped out of his chair and leaned under Mr. Flair's feet.Breaking doors... Breaking doors. I can imagine the form of breaking doors with swordsmanship and magical mentors, but how important is breaking doors in religion?I doubted it, but I can't hold my tongue in the current situation.I'll have to ask Mr. Flair later.

"You can't live without being broken down!I'll give you all the money you've put away!So, I don't know if breaking down the door is the only way...! "

"Really? If you say so... let's just stop breaking down the gate.However, there are conditions. "

The priest could not hide his pathetic face when he stared at his fingertips with tears.
