Let's Manage The Tower

(11) Adjudication of the Temple

Attacks on vessels approaching the Central Continent and intervention in the Bahem Tower.

The examiner who conveyed these two "punishments" took a breath.

Looking at that, the Gates kingdom officials who mistakenly thought it was over had a conspicuous expression of relief.

Surely it is painful for the kingdom to sink a ship or take a tower.

But it's not something that can't be recovered.

But in contrast, Sylvia stabbed a nail.

"Something seems to be wrong, but this is not the end of it.

Of course Sylvia's mouth was caught here.

It is also to prevent the temple from being washed away while Kaiseki is away, and above all because the next judgment of God is related to the temple.

I didn't have a meeting with the examiner in advance, but I can predict what will happen next.

In fact, apart from Sylvia, I was able to anticipate peaches and florians here.

The most important temple has not yet been disposed of.

Rather, it can be said that it is live from here.

The Gates kingdom officials, who were once again dropped at the bottom of the valley in Sylvia's words, were terrified of what was coming next.

He nodded at Sylvia's words.

"That's right. Rather, it's not real from here... If we don't judge the temple, which is responsible for the commotion, the gods won't be able to stop."

The head of the Dominic Temple, who heard the dialog, looked strange enough to fall down at any moment.

From the administrative officials of Alec and Amamiya towers who are watching beside me, I can say I deserve it.

That's right. Wouldn't it be easier to make a verdict as soon as possible?

That's what Ellis told me to cover fire.

The words made Dominic's mouth squeaky, but it was no longer like a fish ashore with his expression.

Hmm. I don't know... I can only think of a temple that has nothing to do with the gods' protection. "

Well, isn't that reasonable?

The protection here is not given to individuals like Sylvia or to buildings like the fifth floor shrine.

Earlier, the gods declared that they would have nothing to do with the temple in question.

From the standpoint of the general public, it was a disposition that seemed to be of that degree.

In fact, the participants in the kingdom of Gates were somewhat relieved.

King Arthur also managed not to show his expression, but the atmosphere is like that.

However, the party leader of the Dominic Temple finally fell down, moaning "Hmm."

Temple officials from the Gates kingdom side also looked as if despair was not enough at the earliest.

The reaction was divided between wholly priestly and otherwise.

Alec, who was a complete bystander, asked Silvia strangely how he was doing.

I didn't think Alec was going to punish me enough.

"May I ask why the priests are reacting like this?

"Yes, but I think we need to supplement it properly."

Sylvia nodded bitterly.

The examiner who actually rendered the judgment is more suitable than he has just completed his role.

This, of course, is deliberately being done to demonstrate Sylvia's existence.

The role of the priesthood that originally existed in the temple exists to explain these god's will and thoughts to people.

It bothers me to deliberately share the role because Kaiseki exists in this world, but if Kaiseki does everything without this, Sylvia's significance as a witch will be lost.

"To put it plainly to politicians, I hope you can think of the Hippolys tragedy."

Hearing Silvia's words, Alec the Stone took a breath.

Everyone knows the Hippolys tragedy, even if they don't know exactly what it means to lose the protection of the gods.

The Hippolys Empire, once the largest empire in human history on the North Continent.

For a moment, he was proud enough to unilaterally declare farewell from the gods.

The people of the Empire will accept it.

But the final emperor, Augusto, arrogated himself to the gods of the world in the latter years of the Empire.

The angry gods suddenly appeared before the people and declared their farewell from the Hippolys Empire.

As a result, the Hippolys Empire was unable to grow crops, hunt animals, and a large number of monsters were attacked without food.

Eventually, less than five years after Augusto's proclamation, the Hippolys were doomed.

It is in every story that the gods proclaimed their farewell from the Hippolys Empire, but little is known about what happened because they lost their protection.

This is for a reason, to ensure that Sylvia and Floria are not confused with the protection they are personally given.

It is also said that the specific information has been conveyed blurry so that it can be understood as easily as possible.

But, of course, it is well communicated to the Church, which is directly involved with God.

Some gods, of course, have consecrated them so that they can properly communicate to the church.

In Sylvia's explanation, King Arthur's complexion clearly deteriorated.

Fighter ships are irreparable damage if you think they were lost in war with some country.

The Tower of Bahem is painful because it is indeed a major industry, but if you believe in Kaiseki's words, you will not be unable to enter the Tower.

For that reason, I thought I could manage to accommodate this.

But there's nothing we can do about the last protection.

The gods have made their decision, and I, as a human being, cannot speak.

But here's the hand of salvation (?) came.

This is Sylvia, who explained earlier.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that you are mistaken, but Master Kouske said that it is against the temple that we lose our protection, not the kingdom of Gates."

"So, then...!!

King Arthur, who looked like he had seen a glimmer of light, silenced again in Sylvia's next words.

"But, of course, the temple will lose its power... and it's up to you to decide what will happen to the country where it's gone."

Sylvia uttered it in a completely other tone of voice.

In addition to the temple to which Dominique belonged, which became the main cause of the commotion this time, other temples involved will lose their function as temples if they also lose the protection of God.

Normally, with support from other churches, we can do something about it, but not this time.

Because if you get involved badly, you may lose your protection.

If the cooperation of other churches is not forthcoming, the temple will lose its meaning as a temple and people will leave.

When that happens, you will definitely come to the country.

In addition, Elisamil God came after him.

In this case, we will tell you directly when we arrive, so know that you can't do any extra small work.

This became a scoundrel, and King Arthur completely abandoned thinking on the spot.

It is no longer beyond my control.

We must return to the country as soon as possible and consult with the townships.

We're going to decide about Dominic and Karl, who brought us this story, but now it's more important for the country than that.

Arthur was only thinking about the country at this time and couldn't afford to look at himself.
