Let's Manage The Tower

Kaiseki saw the three temples standing in front of him and was just overwhelmed.

Each temple is also considerably larger than the surrounding buildings.

Among the architecture that Kaiseki visited the world, it emits a majestic and magnificent atmosphere.

There are three of them.

Of course, the three were temples that enshrined the three great gods of Elisamea, Jamil, and Spika.

Nevertheless, in the religious view of this world, only one pillar is enshrined in one temple.

At the apex of the three great gods, the gods that are said to belong to each are enshrined in their respective temples.

In the first place, it is unusual for a city to have three shrines.

Most cities have only one temple. One of these shrines enshrines a wide variety of gods.

In the case of the faithful gods, the faithless gods seldom have witches or priests other than their main mountain.

It is not uncommon for gods who do not even have a temple in the first place, so if they believe in such gods, they offer prayers on their own. Of course, the way of believing itself is very different from the gods.

It was the city of Mixen where the examiners were now.

Located to the south-east of the continent, the city is famous as a sacred site on the Central Continent.

It is the only city in the Central Continent where the temples of each of the three great gods are located.

There are many faithful pilgrims gathering from all over the continent, regardless of the danger of being attacked by monsters.

Of course, we can't deal with monsters individually, so it's like a pilgrimage tour with escorts.

It is also a city where many priests live to cope with these believers.

Why the archaeologists are visiting the city of Mixen is also an overview of the installation of the transfer gate, but also because I heard about Sylvia.

"... in the city of Mixen?

"Yes, in the first place, that city is a sanctuary dedicated to the three great gods. In that city, I might be able to get a clue to my own divine descent."

"... I see. Well, either way, I was gonna go, so will Sylvia come with me?

"Please."

"Copy that. So... who's next?

"I'll be with you this time."

It was Kouchi who raised his hand.

"That way, I'll pass this time."

When Kaiseki went out of the tower, it had long been his wish that either Kouhi or Mitsuki should remain in the tower.

"... can I come with you?

Unusual, Shreyn raised her hand to the member accompanying her.

"What's wrong? It's unusual."

"Sometimes I just want to travel with Lord Kowske."

"Hmm? Well, I don't have a reason to say no.

"Really...!?

On the contrary, I was surprised at Shreyn's happy expression.

Thinking about it, I hardly ever went outside the tower with Shreyn.

It's not because Shreyn is a vampire.

In this world, vampires are not major beings, but they are not particularly targeted.

It is treated in the same way as other subpopulations. However, not all countries exclude subpopulations by example.

The only thing I haven't been out with before is that it's just not the right time.

"Yes, if there's no problem on the seventy-sixth floor."

"That's okay."

"Well then, there's no problem.... Colette shouldn't look like such a grudge."

"Oh, my God..."

That's what Colette said and dropped her shoulders.

Colette is currently undergoing training from Cheryl, a witch from Elf's Country, as a witch from Essena (World Tree).

"Throughout Kouhi, Cheryl has been telling me so hard."

"Yes... when..."

Colette is currently forbidden to leave the seventy-third floor of the world tree.

The only exception is to come to management while you are studying.

This is an exceptional measure because the examiner is connected to Essena.

That said, it doesn't seem like I should be by the examiner's side.

Essena and Cheryl are the ones who make the decisions around here, so I don't know much about examinations.

"Good luck until Mr. Cheryl gives you permission."

"... hah, okay."

It was a study aid that could only return a bitter smile to Colette, who fell again and sighed.

That's why I'm visiting Mixen with four people: Kaosuke, Kouchi, Shreyne, and Sylvia.

"Sylvia, do you know which shrine is in Elisameal?

It's in the middle.

"Okay. Well, let's go in.... ordinary people can come in, right?

"Of course."

I couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the appearance, so I decided to go inside.

The first thing I decided to do was to enter the temple of Elizabeth Meal, which was my purpose.

But it is.

"... Mmm?

Shreyne shouted strangely as she approached the entrance to the Temple of Elisamir.

"Shrek, what's wrong?

"No, just a little.... Hum... I've got something else to do. I'll be back at the inn in the evening, so I'll break up for a while."

"Ah, hey, shre..."

Shreyne walked away shortly after she stopped.

"I can't help it. We will enter the temple."

"... are you sure?

"I've already decided on an inn, so I'm fine. Staying here forever can get in the way of others."

"Yes, sir."

Okay, I got it.

The three scholars gave up chasing Shreyne and entered the temple of Elisameal as planned.

Once again, Elizabeth will be surprised when she enters the temple.

It is not due to the beauty of the interior.

No, of course, the interior was not defeated by the appearance, it was great.

But there was something else that I felt unexpectedly.

Immediately after entering the temple, the hall is open to the general public, and the statue of Elisamil God is enshrined in front of it.

Benches are also available, and worshippers offer prayers in their thoughts on the idols.

It was not the idol that surprised Kaiseki, but the signs of drifting around the idol.

"... this is..."

Kaiseki approached the idol and fell to the floor.

Kouchi sees it and takes a piece of cloth out of the item box.

"Lord. Take this."

"... Oh, thank you."

The examiner remained stunned and laid it on the floor, lowered his hips on it and sat down.

And I started meditating and exploring the signs.

You can feel the power of God as if it were natural. However, there were other signs that I felt nostalgic for the examiner.

The signs that the examiner remembered were much stronger than those that drifted here.

Obviously much weaker than that place.

But some of the signs that are drifting around the idol are definitely signs of that [garden of everlasting spring].

Kaiseki tries to close his eyes while scratching his seat and feel the signs.

Apprenticeship was not particularly conscious, but it was clearly one of the things that priests did as part of their training.

But it's done much more naturally than anyone Sylvia knows.

Sylvia simply stared at the study aids that were trying to feel the signs of God even more powerful or far deeper in front of Sylvia.
