Let's Manage The Tower
(5) Sylvia's Role
Lily Shrine is located on a certain level of the Amamiya Tower, and plays a central role in it.
At the Yuriyuki Shrine, there was a ceremony held today.
The ceremony is performed by Sylvia, a witch of the real-world god that the shrine has designated as the main god.
The ritual is performed at least once a year, mostly irregularly and several times.
That said, it is not like the ceremony is held publicly and officially, but only on the day when the ceremony is held, it is done entirely by the parties concerned.
You will not be informed in advance when the ritual will take place, and you will be disappointed to see the gate closed as you come to Lily Shrine, but no one complains first.
This is because it is quite normal for rituals to be performed suddenly in other shrines, not just in the Yuriyuki Shrine, and it is also natural for people other than those concerned to be shut out at that time.
Most shrines are like that, so tourists often see the paper sticking out the gate and are more receptive to the fact that they can come at a time when rituals are rare.
Sylvia's ritual at the Lily Shrine, which is occasionally performed from a third party's perspective, involves several witches as well as the person.
Naturally, there are Kokoro and Lirica, and there are also witches who are carrying around and serving at the Lily Jingu Shrine.
For Sylvia, whose main gods are the present gods with few events, both face-to-face and face-to-face, this ritual has become an important one in plain terms.
Sylvia, the witch of the living god, sits in the center, and the two sides are hardened by Koro and Lirica, and the other witch assists him.
Dedicated prayers are not meant for examinations... but for people who struggle too hard.
Sylvia dares to perform such a ritual because she knows that even if she prays to herself, she will have a confused face.
Rather, this ritual is performed not for the sake of the saints, but for the priests whose saints are the main gods of the saints.
It is a ritual that allows priests who believe in one pillar of God to unite their hearts as one group.
Originally, it would not be strange for more witches and priests to participate, but it is done with a limited number of people considering the mood of the auxiliary examiners who are suppressing the prominence.
Still, it was a very important opportunity for those who performed the ritual, so everyone was taking the ritual seriously.

After the ceremony, Sylvia was gathering everyone to have a chat.
For Sylvia, rituals are important, but so is the information we gather from them.
"What about the Jingu these days?
Sylvia asked about the witch who was attending the ceremony as an auxiliary.
Cocoa and lirica are not always packed in the Yuriyu-no-Jingu Shrine, so it is quicker to ask them.
The questioned witch also knew about it, so she spoke directly to Sylvia without confirming with Cocolo or Lirica.
"That's right. It looks like the number of visitors is still growing. It's getting slower. Unlike the others, we don't have any particular problems with them."
What the witch said about "others" meant other temples.
Beginning with the temple of Mixen, temples around the world basically provide various services to worshippers.
Therefore, the more visitors (customers) you have, the more manpower you will need.
However, in the Yuriyu-no-Jingu Shrine, because of the small number of such correspondence, there is no need for new personnel immediately simply because of the increase in the number of people.
Incidentally, there is only one place in Lily Jingu that holds "merchandise" such as amulets.
Moreover, since manpower uses slaves rather than witches, there is little trouble for witches with more people.
Really? If you are not experiencing any problems, please continue as you are. "
Normally, the more people there are, the more trouble there will be.
However, the Lily Shrine is a sanctuary recognized by the gods of the present world, and few people cause extra strife.
Of course, it's not at all, but it mostly fits without bothering the hands of the witches.
The witch nodded to Sylvia's answer and then looked a little embarrassed.
"Then, while the number of 'facilitations' is increasing, how about we do it?
Reminders are, to put it simply, goodbyes.
The money gathered in the coin boxes located at each shrine in Lily Jingu has enough money to pay the witches and slaves.
With more people, it's getting bigger and bigger, and the more you keep it, the more you remember the sense of crisis.
"That's right... It doesn't seem dangerous to leave it here as it is, but the boulder seems a little problematic."
In this world, there is no fool like to sneak into the shrine of Lily, the shrine of God.
Of course, not at all, but theft at the Lily Shrine, which always has Yuri's eyes, is almost impossible.
Nevertheless, it is not mentally good to keep all money as a tennis deposit forever.
Speaking of priests, what the devil has done can happen quite normally.
With the current number of people, it is unlikely that such a thing will happen because it is easy to reach, but if the scale increases and the number of people increases, it is better to assume that problems will surely occur.
Then it's only natural that we want to prepare ourselves from now on.
Sylvia, who had a little thought of the witch's words, looked at the coro.
"Should I use the crown to create an account?"
"Okay."
Cocolo nodded at Silvia's words.
The Crown has a deposit system like a bank.
If you keep it there, you won't suddenly lose all your money.
Then, why didn't you make it from the beginning? Because you didn't think that much money would be collected.
Normal temples are supposed to pay a certain amount in the form of a donation, but all you have to do is pay whatever you want.
As a result, I had no idea how much money would be collected.
Nevertheless, it feels even better now, but even if it has not been done before, it was one of the reasons why the account opening has been abandoned.
"What happens to my account name?
Typically, you name the party or give it a personal name.
In the case of Lily Jingu, there is a little problem, and if you want to build each building or build it in bulk, various options will emerge if you think about the future.
"Well, it would be easier to make it individually."
Sylvia decided that the amount of change collected by the shrine was fragmented and should be managed individually.
Moreover, if the number of shrines increases in the future, it may become more troublesome to manage in one account.
Even if you have a lot of accounts, there are no other problems besides troublesome management, so it is natural to think that it is created for each shrine.
I was able to finish this ceremony safely while deciding on such a fine matter.
Sylvia went back to management satisfied with it.
