My First Trip was to Another World

A day went by that I did, and I got my morning. I usually decide that today is a working day.

But the Church's Gotagota sees no sign of resolution. You won't get out of the inn until the forest problem is resolved as it is...

I've decided to investigate the woods already and I'll cage them in the woods for a month or so. Let's do that when we get tired of making magic props and potions.

As I was messing with the 'blower' demon props I had just made, the door to the room was knocked.

When I checked with the visitors, it was the girl with the billboard daughter. It's not uncommon for this child to come to the room because she can bring me replacement sheets, water, etc.

"Good Morning"

"What's up?

"I have a customer for Mr. Coe. I'm in the inn dining room."

"Is that Mr. Lily?

Next to me standing in front of the door, Luna glimpsed her face.

I know about Lily...... The church thing hasn't been cleared up yet. It should be too early to come.

"I don't know.

What was the customer like?

"Uh... I'm an uncle with a young woman"

Um, it doesn't look like Mr. Lily. That guy can't have brought the old man. Besides, there's no way anyone who sees Mr. Lily doesn't emphasize 'breasts'.

"You're not Mr. Lily...... I'll check it out."

In sign perception, there is only 'reaction'. It's a hostile, unwilling reaction.

But I also want to improve this sign perception. My sign perception is only perceiving the subject's current emotions. I'm not perceiving feelings for me, so I make mistakes like yesterday.

I wonder if you can only perceive the emotions directed at me for sure... This' reaction 'could turn into' alert 'as soon as you see my face. I thought it was handy magic for the demon opponent, but too much glitch for the human opponent.

"I'm coming with you, too."

That's what Luna said and grabbed my clothes hem.

Unconfirmed opponent. I just want to go alone because it's dangerous, but it's easier for Luna to move in an emergency when she's with me.

"Okay. Leeds wait here. Just get rid of all the tools."

"Yes."

Leeds replied well and began to clean up his tools.

Claire is making potions in her own room, so she stopped by the room and called. Claire clears the tools, too, and stands by in my room.

I think you're too alert, but you don't know what's going to happen. If I have to, I'll stop and Luna will give the two of you instructions to get away.

Go down the stairs and head to the dining room. There was someone there who looked familiar. This is Phyllis, the apostle's former caretaker. A nostalgic Phyllis and an unknown old man stood.

You were still alive...... I heard you were dismissed, but what have you been up to?

I mean, is my personal information leaking from somewhere? There's no way Lily is talking about avoiding church... and who's the killer?

Suddenly, a 'alert' reaction appeared to the sign perception. I'll be more vigilant too. The reaction was felt from right next to me, not two of the clerics. That reaction is like overlapping with Luna... Luna!

Luna is in a great mood to kill... Don't you hate church that much? Leave it for now because it seems harmless.

We have to be vigilant as to the position being targeted by the Church, but the reaction of the two clerics to the perception of signs remains unchanged. It still remains a 'reaction', and there seems to be no danger.

From what we've been talking about here lately, I expect it's the Southerners who are after me. But there was also the idea that maybe Phyllis and the others resented me.

As for the church, I honestly think I've done too much, especially for Phyllis. I was hoping to settle sooner or later because they might resent me. But I don't want to get along. We just have to be non-interfering, indifferent friends with each other.

What I fear is that you may interfere with me with some kind of emotion. I'm not willing to get involved, but it's hard if the church doesn't think so.

"What can I do for you?

"Sorry to interrupt all of a sudden"

"My name is Salman and I'm a cleric. I'm Phyllis' boss."

Phyllis and the old man bowing their heads deeply.

Does that mean you were giving Phyllis instructions? No, I don't normally care. It's a waste of brain cells to remember names.

"What can a church cleric do for you now, Mr. Coe?

Luna intensifies her vocabulary. That's a lot of thorny language......

"We asked you to apologize for your attitude at the Royal Castle.

I'm really sorry about that time. "

"My deepest apologies also from me. I apologize for any disrespect."

The two clerics bow their heads even deeper than earlier with a serious face.

I don't think we're talking about forgiveness. I don't care anymore. I think the church should be free to do it in church. I need you to deal with the Apostle more than I do.

Enough to find out I'm not resented.

"No, that's enough. That's all we got to talk about, huh? We're going back to our rooms."

Nothing. I don't feel annoyed or anything anymore. I'm simply not interested. I'd rather not get close because I don't want to get caught up in the church's goth.

Looking at Luna's complexion, she was staring at Phyllis with a cold look. Sounds like you hate church a lot......

"I'm so sorry about that time..."

"Mr. Coe says that's enough, but I'm not convinced yet, am I?

Luna looks unusual all the time.

No, he said I really didn't care. I got enough for you. There's no reason to get involved anymore.

"Even from me... could you please forgive me"

An old man I don't know bows his head deep again, but when he can bow his head so far, it's annoying the other way around.

"Enough said. I'm not thinking about getting something done from the church."

"... are you sure? Mr. Coe was angry, wasn't he?

I did get annoyed then. Being ignored by people for cancer is what pisses me off. I'll be careful, too.

That's why it's annoying to live with it at its roots all your life. It's not a story I want to remember.

"Oh. Enough so why don't you go home? If you need me, you can let the Apostle through."

Speaking of which, did you also lose contact with the Apostle? Then you have nothing to do with me either.

"Um... shame on you. I need to ask you a favor. Can you help us?"

Phyllis opened his mouth reluctantly.

"Huh?"

What are you talking about? I don't know why. Why should I help you?

"We ask you to be aware of your impotence. Could you listen to me?"

"So, what's in it for me when I listen to you?

There's only one downside, isn't there? Time is limited. It's even a waste of time asking questions like this.

"Huh...? Of the Church, even if you're here, it's a favor of the people..."

"So?"

You think anyone would listen unconditionally to the Church's request? Um, people in trouble.

"The Southerners seem to be after Master Koh, so I don't think it would hurt to just listen"

An old man I don't know pinched his mouth.

It doesn't matter if they're after me already... Naturally, I'm on guard, but am I really being targeted? That raider, is the target really me?

But if that's the case, why don't you ask me about it?

"Let's talk"

"Mr. Coe, is that okay?

"I'm just asking."

Luna doesn't even seem to like listening. He's always got a grumpy look on his face.

When I showed my willingness to listen, Phyllis began to talk about his residence correctly.

"Then excuse me.

Don't worry, Mr. Coe's case is not a direct cause, but we are in a very dangerous position right now.

This matter is the takeover of the Church by some reformists.

They argue that the apostolic presence in this country should not be made good and that control should be entrusted to a country that is good at apostolic summons.

As for Master Koh, it seems a policy to capture him as treasonable to God. "

Oh! I look like a traitor! Isn't that a little cool? "The Rebel of God" or whatever.

But that's a hassle. I don't have the will to rebel. I am unwilling to engage with the church or God in the first place. Why involve me...

Speaking of which, you said this was the first time in this country that the Apostolic Summoning ceremony had taken place. In contrast, I have done so many times in other countries. I'm pretty sure that country has a better control system.

But the Apostolic Summoning is one of the important undertakings of the country. The Apostle also has the position of one who serves God. There is no reason to give it to me in another country.

I hear the king and the church are getting along, but that's right. If this is what the church says, it's no different than having a cat sitting on the throne.

"So, what's their aim?

Now the story is for me, "So what's up? It's a story." I don't care.

"It is the departure of the present king and the abolition of the royal family. We want the Church to take the place of the royal family."

Well, you're after the coup. Don't let anything bad happen for sure. According to Mr. Lily's story, the Southerners are going to get rid of the demonic props. That would undoubtedly plunge the whole country into havoc.

Oh, shit. You're such a pain in the ass. It is awkward that demonic props will not be freely made in this country.

... so what is it that you should do to me? Stop the coup? It's not my job. Elimination of the South? That's a problem within the church.

I wonder what these guys have to say. If the coup starts in earnest, we're just leaving this country.

"Are we done talking?

"Yes, that's it. Come to our base as we have upcoming meetings"

"Huh?"

"Huh? You heard the story, didn't you?

What's Phyllis saying? Maybe you think I'm gonna help you because I listened to you?

It's a flower garden in your head. How convenient for me to think about.

"I heard the story, but I didn't say I'd help. This is a matter of state and church. It's not about me sticking my neck in it."

All I can do is defend myself when attacked. It's the country's job to solve it, and the king has asked me not to lay a hand on it.

"But you have the power to solve it, don't you?

It's not a question of whether you have power or not. Whether or not we should. This is not something I should be doing. There's no reason to do it.

I would do enough to help if it were asked around the king or Mr. Lily, but the church doesn't have such an in-laws.

"So what's up? There's no reason for me to give you a hand."

"Does Master Koh not know the duty of those with power?

Uh, I can't do it anymore. Limits of frustration. I don't think like this guy at all. I seriously don't want to get involved.

"Do you mean to unconditionally obey the orders of the weak?

If so, I don't remember having such an obligation. Go home. "

I didn't use intimidating magic, but Phyllis solidified with a frightened look.

An old man I don't know opens his mouth instead of Phyllis, who can't speak up.

"Really...... So there's a disagreement of views. I'm very sorry for your loss.

Do you mind if I assume you only received the will to apologize?

"Right, no problem. So go home now."

"I'm sorry. Then we'll go home."

The unknown old man bowed his head deeply, pulling Phyllis' arm and leaving the inn.

Is it okay to say that we settled for once? But I don't feel like I've left a new cause... Don't be stubborn when Phyllis comes out. I don't want to see you again, if I may.

"That was tough...... What did those people want?

Luna seems to be overwhelmed with their intentions. I guess it's beyond comprehension.

"I have just the power to fix it, so help me," he said.

In summary, this is what it looks like. I don't like to skip it because it's my duty. If you're saying this is God's teaching, God and I are assholes. I want to punch you.

"How selfish..."

Luna is out of line.

I'm glad Phyllis' opinion isn't the general idea of this country......

Don't help because you have the strength. You have a reason to help me, so help me. It has nothing to do with personal power there. And there's no reason to help the church.

But there's so much attachment in this country that I'm thinking about working with all the kings and royal castles to the best of my ability. I wonder if there's anything I can do.
