The day after I defeated the devil.
The Duke of Ifel, who ruled the Holy City of Sanctum, was the devil, and the Holy City became hasty because he defeated it.
The person who ruled suddenly disappeared, so there's no point in people getting anxious and making a scene.
Also, the five clerics who parted the divinity had the power next to the Duke of Ifel, but they had been deprived of their souls by the devil and had become their obscure dolls.
When the devil vanished, it seemed that the priests also vanished into dust.
The next person in power was Saira.
She was also highly popular with the inhabitants of the Holy Capital.
The inhabitants, realizing that those who govern the Holy City are absent, have now pressed the Great Shrine to let Saira govern the Holy City.
I asked Sayla what she wanted to do, and she's been working without a break for two hundred years, so it's time to live quietly.
He also said it was distressing that people could not help him if they relied on him because he was deprived of his power as the Virgin by the devil.
I want to make Saira's wish come true.
When she showed her face in front of the inhabitants, the inhabitants seemed to make extra noise, so I decided to take over.
For once, I managed to persuade the inhabitants to accompany Elmia, the chief of the Holy Knights, who was the Count of a great power named Glendale, and who was able to recover health and walk around.
First, ask the more than a thousand inhabitants packed inside the Grand Temple to go outside once again, and only the representatives of the districts of the Holy Capital to come inside.
He brought four representatives from the eastern, western, southern and northern districts of the Holy Capital to the reception room, which was co-located in the Great Shrine.
So check the current state of the Holy Capital and discuss who should be the next ruler.
"As far as we are concerned, I would like Lady Seira to rule this Sanctum."
A representative of the Eastern District of the Holy Capital made a statement summarising the views of the residents.
"It is Lady Seira who watched over us for two hundred years and gave us salvation. She is the support of our hearts."
"Even if we are losing our strength as Virgins, it does not change our feelings of esteem for Lord Seira"
Representatives of other districts also want the reign of Seira.
"But if Saira is going to want to take a rest already... there is also a desire to grant her that wish"
The delegates also seem troubled.
"I heard that Seira had little involvement in internal affairs. Even if Saira were to rule here, I think we need someone who can work out the practices..."
"Don't worry about that. Viscount Jan will do something about it."
"Viscount Jan?
Just then, the door to the reception room opened, and a man with narrow eyes and a slight crunch jumped in.
"Shh, excuse me. I'm sorry I'm late for saying that this is an important meeting to decide on the future of the Holy City."
He said he was a Viscount, but when he did, he was a low-back man.
"Dear Hart, this is Viscount Jan. The Duke of Ifel mainly partitioned his internal affairs and his diplomacy with other countries was mostly done by Viscount Yang"
The devil is versatile. He has so many abilities to satisfy human desires and take away his soul as a price for his covenant.
The Duke of Ifel, who was the devil, would have been an excellent ruler.
Nevertheless, I think it would be tough if you asked me if I could manage one city by myself. So I thought you were supposed to have an excellent adjunct.
I was hoping to have Sor (...) (...) (...) do the next ruler of the Holy Capital - and that's Viscount Yang, who's out of breath right in front of me.
I got a little nervous.
"Viscount Jan, nice to meet you. My name is Hart. I am the three men of the Count Silveray family of the Kingdom of Glendale."
"Oh, I'm asking you. Thank you for saving Sanctum."
This guy...... is he okay?
My anxiety grew.
"I'm a little bit arrogant when I go out in public, but I'm sure of my diplomatic skills."
Eastern District representatives taught me in a whisper.
Can't we talk in public, but will diplomacy work?
"He is good at producing documents and receives significant donations each year from the surrounding countries just for the exchange of letters. That donation is a valuable source of income for Sanctum."
The East End delegate who noticed my doubts supplemented me.
Well, that's certainly one talent.
It turns out that it is largely in the hands of Viscount Yang that the inhabitants of Sanktam, who are not particularly thriving in agriculture or industry, maintain the standard of living there.
At the same time, I can see why the residents' representatives want Seira to be ruler.
In Viscount Jan there is no hua.
We need a mascot to gather people's envy.
I guess that means it's Saira.
She takes the table stage and the practice is performed by Viscount Jan.
That is the ideal figure of the Holy Capital as conceived by the representatives of the inhabitants.
If there is someone who can practice, the conversation is quick.
And then if we can give the inhabitants of the Holy Capital something that will support our hearts, Saira will be liberated.
I decided to consult with (...) of (...) and dissolved the meeting.
─ ─ ─ ─
Two days after we defeated the devil, we were attending the ritual of the Virgin's replacement in the Great Temple.
Now in the Great Temple are Saira, the active Virgin, Isha, the Virgin Candidate, Elmia, the head of the Order of the Holy Knights, and a group of us Elnors.
Oh, and then there's Lucin.
Saira had been almost deprived of the power of the Virgin by the devil, but fortunately the power to baptize the next Virgin candidate remained.
Says the baptism of Isha, who will be the next Virgin, was successfully completed last night.
During this ritual, if a temple descends from the Creating God, Seira will no longer be the Virgin, and a new Isha will be the Virgin.
Ceira and Isha, wrapped around the sacred costume, knelt before the statue of the Creating God.
A little while later, the statue of the Creating God glowed.
"Saira, thank you for everything you've been through"
A voice echoes in my head.
It is the divine trust of the Creator.
Looks like everyone in this temple is hearing you right now.
Saila was in tears.
For the first time, Isha had heard the voice of the Creating God and was trembling at that body with emotion.
I would really like to work directly with Seira (onions, etc.), but since she is the supreme god, she said (...) and (...) said (...) that it is not so easy to manifest (...).
-That's right.
As a matter of fact, I met the Creator last night.
The Creator God told me to send out a divine commission to allow the Virgin to take turns.
Also, my (...) wish (...) took on pleasantly.
So I knew the Virgin's change would be over so much.
The voice of the Creating God sounds.
"Admit the replacement of the Virgin"
All right, it's going well.
"But..."
- Mm-hmm?
"It's conditional on being bound to a certain man."
Oh, that?
You didn't say that yesterday, did you?
"Well, who's the man?
The color of anxiety also seeps into Seira's expression.
"The man was once a brave man"
Well, that 's--
"The man also petted my family, the Divine Beast, after he had brought the hero, married the princess of the Elves and the Beasts, followed the calamity, and elevated the Spirit to the Spirit King on his own initiative".
Is that it?
Something, God of Creation...... are you angry?
A little bit on word saving, no togee?
"And it came to pass, that he took the girl who had benefited from the other gods, and the daughter of the dragon tribe, and put even the dragon witch in his hand."
I didn't fool you!
'There's more. He didn't even call me last night, but he came to the divine world on his own. "
─ ─ !?
Oh, could it be (...) and (...) angry?
