At the beginning of my life in the temple of the Lord of the Holy City, I saw the priests of this temple and noticed it.
That is the proximity between the priests and the believers.
Normally speaking of priests, they seem to be more powerful from the top, but the priests here were a bit different.
Yes, the treatment is over.
Thank you, Priest!
Don't push yourself too hard and come as soon as you get sick.
Got it!
Somehow everyone's gaze is the same as that of the believers.
Of course, the devotees hold the great priests in high esteem, but the priests didn't look great either.
Maybe it's because the temple of the Lord God has fallen in this holy city.
However, even the greatest temple chief here made me feel that the sight of him operating from the same perspective as his followers was by no means the only one.
It's different from other priests in the temple after all.
In living in the Holy City, we also checked the other priests of God who are rivals.
But the priests of the mainstream gods didn't have any good emotions.
Somehow, I feel like a priest I know well.
Yes, the next one, please ~
Yeah, we can't lose this one either!
Alright! I'll do my best in the afternoon!
◆Tracy.◆
Late at night, when everyone was asleep, I was talking to the temple director.
With a certain determination.
You're serious, aren't you?
The temple chief stares at me worriedly.
But my determination is unshakable.
"Yes, they worked a lot for this temple."However, I can't be the only one protected by the temple! "
Yes, Lakshi-san worked very hard for the temple.
He rebuilt the temple, healed his followers, expanded the fields behind him, and even crushed the monsters around the sacred city to keep the people safe.
Moreover, they say that they have confronted the tyranny of the priest of the god of war that we came for when we were away, so they really don't raise their heads.
Even though you're doing that, I'm sorry to the god if we didn't do anything.
“Okay, let's respect your will.”
The temple master laughed bitterly in distress, but seemed to respect my intentions and gave me permission.
But be careful.
Thank you, Shrine Master!
◆
Alright, let's go then!
Finally, the morning of the pilgrimage came.
Now that we are ready, we leave the temple to embark on our pilgrimage.
Huh?
There were the priests of the temple, including the temple chief and Tracy, and the believers who were walking past the temple.
"Good morning, gentlemen."
The temple chiefs seemed to have come to see us off.
"The pilgrimage ritual is a very arduous journey.Be careful not only of the harshness of your journey and the monsters that attack you, but also of your competitors.If you think it's really dangerous, you can abstain without worrying about us. "
You must have been so worried about us.The temple chief told me to come back safely because I could lose if I was in danger.
Honestly, I didn't think anyone would say that.
Even though I am the one who collects the temples of such a big city, I feel warm in my heart when I think that the temple director is a very kind and caring person.
Some high-ranking clergymen can do this.It's very different from the past and the present.
It's wonderful to be able to work for God in my previous life, so I was full of people trying to get me to work for free by asking for rewards, or using me to raise my reputation and fatten my stomach.
But this is a request we took on.
Then you can't run away.
Best of all, we like the people in this temple.
These good people face us and the believers with the same eyes in the contested holy city.
That's why I wanted to do my best for these people.
"It's okay, leave it to us!"
”I see... you girls are really great, but please be careful not to overconfide your strength and be cautious.”
"" "" "" Yes! "" ""
The temple head warned us not to worry or be alarmed.
He's a really nice guy.
Well then, I'll go.
Yes, please be careful.
When I told the temple director to go, Mr. Tracy came forward.
Is there something Mr. Tracy has to say?I thought.....
Well then, let's go, ladies and gentlemen.
Oh, Mr. Tracy, that's how you showed us how to accompany us on our journey!
Looking closely, Tracy carries her luggage on her back and holds a long mace with a piece of metal on the tip of her hand.Completely out of the office.
"Huh!? Will Tracy be joining us?"
I didn't expect Tracy to join us, and we're going to be surprised.
"Huh? Didn't you know?I need at least one official from the temple of the Holy City for my pilgrimage. "
"Huh!? Was that so!?"
What is that?! I didn't hear that, Mr. Foca!?
“Yes, the pilgrimage is a mythical pilgrimage.Therefore, as a young man who began his journey, there must have been someone who served in the temple of the Holy City for at least five years.Instead, those who have been involved for less than five years, and those who have been involved from outside, will be recognized as mythologists. "
“If you don't do that, the only people who will take part in the pilgrimage will be the best mercenaries and adventurers from outside, and it will no longer be a sacred ritual.”
Tracy's explanation was supplemented by the temple director.
"Well, as long as it's made up, if you say so, then so be it."
Certainly, if all the participants in the sacred ritual were outsiders hired with money, the ritual would be meaningless.
"Previously, I participated as a representative, but I was already a year old, so my body stopped moving as I wanted, so I was thinking about declining this year."
The temple head told him that he would have abstained from the pilgrimage if it were true.
“But Tracy said it.If there is anyone who can do everything in their power for this lonely temple, I want to do everything in my power. "
In response to the temple chief's words, Tracy bowed her head to us in a straight posture.
"I wasn't strong enough to go on a pilgrimage."However, if you can help me so far for the temple, I want to help you as much as I can!! "
There is no falsity in Tracy's desperate desire to talk with her head down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you may cause a lot of trouble, but please help me!"I want to help you too!Please! "
So I decided, no, we decided.
Tracy-san, please raise your face.
I pat Tracy on the shoulder and ask her to raise her face.
"Well then..."
"To go on a pilgrimage, we need Tracy, who has prayed earnestly in the temple."That's why it's not like you have all your hands and feet. "
Yes, the people in this temple were facing the believers seriously.
It is ironic that the number of believers has fallen sharply as a result, but still Tracy and the others are truly fulfilling their priestly duties.
Otherwise, the fallen church will soon disappear.
That's right! If you can't get out or I can't join you, I'll be the one asking you to come!
Gyro likes Tracy's determination, too, and welcomes her with a laugh.
"Well, that's what I'm saying." Besides, we went on a pilgrimage together, so you should be lucky to have the same interests. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen... thank you!"
Accepted by us again, Tracy raises her face as her eyes shine.
Alright, let's go on a pilgrimage!
"" "" "" Ohhh!! "" "" "
"" "" Good luck, ladies!! Come back when you're in danger!! ""
Our roar and the cheers of all the believers echoed in the corner of the city.

"Is that where the pilgrimage starts?"
As I approached the venue where the pilgrimage would take place, I could already see a large crowd gathering.
"Yes, from here all the participants will begin the pilgrimage.From the Holy City, those who traveled along the pilgrimage route through the towns and villages and reached the pilgrimage site in the sanctuary are recognized as winners. ”
Listening to Tracy's words, we reach the venue.
Nevertheless, there were a great number of participants.
These are all the participants who have gathered for the divine service.
I'm sure you've gathered a lot of skill.
"Wow, there are a lot of people..."
However, if you look closely, the sight is somewhat strange.....
Ohho, the temple of my business god will win.
a musculoskeletal steel flesh;
"Oh, it's the temple of our war god."
The forged flesh of steel,
"Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho (Noisy running bass voice)"
I was sparking.
Yes, the venue was overflowing with countless bitter Amazones.
"" "" "" "......" "Wow" "" ""
