Let's Manage The Tower

(24) Witch of the Living God

Sylvia walked to Laurel's side in sight.

The standing behavior was entirely accustomed to attracting attention.

For Sylvia, who has been exposed to a lot of attention as Floria's advisor, this is not the case.

Meanwhile, Adelmo, who was surprised at Sylvia's appearance, was surprised by his appearance.

In Adelmo, Sylvia is nothing but a witch.

But as far as I can see, it doesn't look very good.

For the first time, doubts about Sylvia arose in Adelmo's chest.

Silvia, who stood next to Laurel, bowed to the other two priests before he began talking.

"In my recollection, ownership of the artifact had already passed to another person. I also checked the permit, but I realize it was already invalid."

To Sylvia, Adelmo reacted reflectively.

"What are you talking about? Surely you were there, but you admitted your permit!

"I did admit that I had a permit, but I didn't even admit ownership. Above all, who forcibly took away this argument without listening to it?

"I just claimed my legitimate rights and took it! What are you!?

The outsider was Adelmo, who tried to keep going, but was stopped in a hurry by the temple chief at Jamil Shrine, who changed his complexion.

"Bye, fool! Stop it!

"Yes? Yes, no, but..."

Adelmo, who was not foolish enough to ignore the temple chief and continue his claim, turned his confused expression to the temple chief.

Against such Adelmo, the chief of the temple of Jamil performed a praiseworthy maneuver.

"Idiot! This witch is Sylvia!

The moment the temple chief said his name, the atmosphere on the spot changed.

Silvia no longer appears on the stage when Queen Floria retires, but still has influence in temples within the Central Continent.

It was also evidence of the spread of the faith of the living gods within the continent.

"Ha!? Sylvia... Lord Sylvia!?

Adelmo, too, seemed to know about Sylvia, revealing his surprise.

Until the Templar Commander told me, the name of Sylvia that I heard from the woman in front of me didn't match.

Sylvia, who saw Adelmo staring at herself, sighed and said.

"What's the matter? Do you change what you say with a person's title?

"Well, that's..."

Sylvia continued to look at Adelmo, who lost momentum.

"Let me just say it to you. By the time you came to that house, the power of the artifact had passed to me. I own it now. Do you claim to be more worthy of God's instruments than I am?

In fact, it was supposed to be held only in the temple, but Adelmo, who already thought it should be useful for himself, was stuck in words.

With that attitude alone, I knew what Adelmo thought of the artifact, but Sylvia dared not penetrate into it.

Speaking of why, it was enough to see the reaction of those around us.

Especially the three priests of the temple have turned their backs on Adelmo in suspicion.

Adelmo also felt the gaze of the priests of the temple.

I desperately think about how to reverse this situation, but I have no idea.

Until then, the situation was beyond Adelmo's control.

In the first place, Sylvia has spent nearly twenty years with the Queen as a witch since Razek Amamia was born.

Sylvia's confidence in the continent's temples is naturally even better than Adelmo's.

Of course, as a witch of the living gods, Sylvia sometimes confronted the temple, but that's why every one of them got it.

It is hard for Adelmo to believe that the woman still in front of him is Sylvia.

As far as appearance goes, it doesn't look like he's getting old at all.

But the temple chiefs of each temple are all said to be Sylvia.

There is no one here who can cover it.

Adelmo, who had lost his words, and Sylvia, who stood beside the temple chief, were gathered there, watching with a stiff spit what would happen after that.

Seeing the surroundings, Sylvia accepts Laurel's artifacts and approaches Adelmo's location.

Then he exchanged the water mirror on the table with the water mirror of the divine instrument, and suddenly said this.

"Use it."

"... yes?

"Do you claim that this artifact belongs to you? If so, it should work properly. Why don't you use it right now? I kept saying it wasn't suitable for many other people. How much can you do?

Now, looking at Sylvia with her hands pointing to the instruments of God, Adelmo looked like she had bitten a bitter bug.

Suddenly I was told to use a divine instrument and I couldn't possibly use it.

In the first place, Adelmo wasn't trying to secure a divine instrument for his own use.

I didn't look into it at all, such as how to use it as a divine instrument.

Anyway, I can't stand back even if you tell me to.

Adelmo, who was ready, gave instructions to bring the holy water to his son, who was by his side.

Holy water is the water commonly used by priests to use tools.

Naturally, holy water is also used when water is put into the mirror.

Adelmo, who received the holy water, quickly put the holy water in the water mirror... and sprayed the holy water from the water mirror.

Adelmo was wet with holy water.

"Ha...?!?

Adelmo could only speak up because he didn't think the artifact would do such a thing.

After that, I tried several times to put holy water in the water mirror, but the instrument of God did not accept holy water.

Adelmo is already wet enough to say wet.

Sylvia sighed at the sight of Adelmo.

"... that much?"

Adelmo glanced at the words, but Silvia ignored them and took the bottle of holy water that Adelmo was about to put in and poured it into the mirror in the same way.

It was Adelmo who stood for a moment from the past, but the instruments of God showed no reaction and honestly accepted the holy water.

"Ha!? Why... why...?

Sylvia continued to pour holy water into the instruments of God, looking sideways at Adelmo, who was astonished without knowing what it meant.

And Sylvia, who poured it out to the end, turned to Adelmo and said.

"Don't you see? If you don't know that, you don't have the right to use this artifact from the beginning."

"Nah, what..."

"Perhaps the chiefs of the temple know that."

With that, Sylvia turned his gaze to the chiefs of the temple.

Among them, Adelmo's temple chief, the Jamil Temple, has his temple on his temple.

Everyone could see that his face was amazed at Adelmo.

However, the reaction around them was clearly understood by those who knew what Sylvia was saying and those who did not.
