"So what was it about that sacred spring?

I remember.

The fountain was stained red, and he was judged to be the sword of the Evil God.

Eliez hesitated for a moment and then

"And I was afraid of the heavenly punishment... Huh! So... if it's real... let's break it..."

So the story that the fountain would be an evil sword if stained red was a bright red lie?

... just red.

"Huh, naturally! I am an authentic sword!

By the way, that fountain has long been said to be inhabited by the power of God, and has been used for divination, etc.?

After the Temple of Laas was created, he said, he took the liberty of certifying it as a sanctuary and putting it under the control of the temple.

"What about the artifact?

"That's what the faithful have gotten somewhere and devoted themselves to the temple... I was just treating that as if I had been given it by the gods...... So, I don't know if it's really a god thing..."

Maybe it's just a weapon with a slightly more powerful special effect?

"Ugh, you're lying..."

"So far, you mean you've been fooled...?

For decades, the facts that have been kept secret have been exposed one after the other, and Zeldia and Suya, who were listening to it, are flabbergasted.

"Let it be, you gave up marriage to continue the Holy Knight...!

"Me too! What were you prepared to pierce your bachelor that day!?

Is that where you get angry...?

"No, I don't think there was a man in your personality who could have gotten one.... Me too, though."

Sarah vomited a venom of masochism with Blur.

"In the first place, why is there a constraint that the members of the temple must be single?

Throwing the question I've always had,

"Because I'm still single because the faithful told me not to get bad bugs and stuff to get rid of me!? He said he was close to 100 years old! If there's a happy newlywed in front of me, I can't stand it...!

"... I see"

It was uninterrupted and personal.

I wanted it to be at least a more noble circumstance.

Incidentally, being harsh about sex, or having only women in the temple, seems to be the result of such celibacy being interpreted in enlargement at some point.

If you noticed, it was settled, so you think she left it there, too?

You know what, like that.

But this is totally unexpected.

What am I supposed to do, this?

"What do you want Wenus to do?

In the meantime, I asked Wenus.

It's not like I have a grudge against her in the first place.

Me, it would be enough if I could settle, and I wasn't willing to judge her.

But Wenus is life (?).

You will have the right to decide on treatment.

"Then this divine sword Wenus-Wikt. Instead of Vine, the goddess of love and victory, why don't we give this one a divine judgment!

A humanized wenus appears and stands before Eliez kneeling on the floor.

With a glance at the phenomenon and a moment of surprise, Eliez drowned and begged for forgiveness.

"… well, please… be generous…"

"Uhm."

Wenus nodded greatly and spoke with a majestic voice (but the voice of a toddler).

"The Lord will now be the princess of Lucas, my man!

... Hey, wait a minute.

After much discussion, she was asked to continue with the Virgin as before.

Fortunately, the only ones who found out the truth were us and the Saint Knights captains.

If we remain silent, the authority of the Virgin and the Temple of Rares should not waver.

"... it would be more peaceful."

It is a catastrophe that could crumble the previously preserved order, such as the falsehood of the temple of the Great Shrine, which holds many believers.

I'm sure the world will panic.

It is also possible for the faithful to mob up knowing that they were being deceived.

Of course that's not where I want it.

"Welcome home, master! You're safe and above all!

Returning to Ceres' mansion, Ireira welcomed me.

Seems to have worried me for a long time because I was raided by the Holy Knights and headed straight to the temple without saying anything.

Ceres remains in the temple, by the way.

And the other captains.

They weren't out of their confusion yet, but because they need to be briefed well to the Temple officials early on on on this one so that troublesome rumors don't spread outside.

- That's right.

"Sorry to bother you."

"... No, why are you following me?"

I turned half my eyes to the person I had been seeing.

It is Eliez.

Originally she was always pulling into the deepest part of the temple, and everything that stood out was apparently done by the executives.

So I guess I'm leaving this post-processing to myself, but why not let the central figure leave the temple?

"Because! Something I haven't had my family princess make yet!

"That's why I don't want to."

"Why!? I finally thought I could get married too! I knew I had to be a teenager!?

... and always this guy.

"Hey, asshole sword. Because you say that, don't you?

"Damn, isn't that good? I guess it's not where I want one or two of the Virgins, or Harlem. Anyway, it's already horny just because it sounds"

You were so angry at me for being treated like an evil god's sword......

"If it was a skank, I might have slashed it and thrown it away."

"I knew you, are you really a bad sword?

Ireira asks me bewildered.

"Uh, that one...?

"I'm Eliez."

"Eliez...? And, yeah, yeah, eh!? Why is the Virgin here? Oh no, Master, you even dropped the Virgin!?

Ireira raising her voice of amazement.

"Exactly, my lord!

I'm not happy at all.

"Hey, oh, hey, there."

"Who's you?"

Eliez took a bottle out of nowhere.

"It's a fifty year old wine that I managed in the basement of the temple. Shall we have a drink?

"Fifty years!?

How mature are they?

Naturally, you can't have had wine like that before, but I definitely drank it once.

"Do you get in that hand! I've decided not to add more princesses!

I twist down my desire for booze with the power of my will and pounce.

"I think you said that even before you made Lord Ceres your family princess."

"You said that before Mr. Luna, didn't you?

"No, I'm not. From before the Kruschet."

Aria said something, but I pretended I didn't hear it.
