In a large temple in the corner of the Imperial City, Priest Xanahua welcomed me. The time is evening.

"Please forgive the sudden visit, Mr. Xanahua"

As I bow, the elder priest guides me with a smile.

"If you are a friend of Eleora, you are always welcome."

That's not a clergy-like wording.

"What about Eleora's enemy?"

Then Xanawa priest grins with a grin.

"Welcome, of course, but sudden errands may happen in quick succession. God will give you a test."

Apparently it's a type I can talk to.

Was good.

I was immediately relieved and let him go through his room.

No matter how high the ranks of the priests can have only one room per temple. In a strange place, it is their simplicity or equality, which indicates their commitment.

Archbishop Xanahua sat me on the couch, and I sat face to face.

"Actually, we haven't heard of Mr. Weid yet.

By the way, what was cut out?

Priest Xanahua will be in a position, and it will be hard to talk about pagans. He will also be troubled with the reaction.

"Actually, I hear that clergy are struggling in North Lorumund."

"North Lolmund?"

Apparently, there is no verse you can imagine for Priest Xanahua. He is leaning his head.

"Some voices say that a certain nobleman in North Lorumund is too cold against Teruyoism."

It does not say "Who" while making a report format. If you don't reveal who you are saying, this is true. It's a tricky way to say bad things to others.

I secretly apologized to the Bolshevik secretly, but Priest Xanawer looked like “Hahaa”.

"Oh ... Is that guy. The duke who just changed factions recently?"

"Yes"

After all, it seems that Duke Bolshevik had been marked as Teruyo for a long time.

It may be a more hot topic for him.

Priest Xanawer stares at my face.

"But he's now a supporter of Eleora. Why talk about things that would be disadvantageous for Eleora?"

Priest Xanawer apparently seems as politically as me. He seemed to feel strange.

I was wondering how to answer, but decided to go roughly because it was troublesome.

"Because it is disadvantageous for Eleora, I don't want you to cause much trouble."

"I see, yes."

Archbishop Xanawer nods a lot.

He thought a bit and then said:

"The Bolsheviks dislike Huiyang and have been burning their hands for a long time. There are many other nobles who dislike the clergy, but when it comes to the Duke, it will be over there."

As with almost everywhere, higher ranks lead to avoiding trouble with the spirit of "no rich fight". The trouble is that you lose more.

Priest Xanawer mourns.

"He said he would not let the people follow the commandments. As Sir Weid knows, the commandments are not made meaningless."

"You're right."

Priest Xanawer appeals powerfully to me who strikes me properly.

"The precepts are wisdom to enrich our daily lives and to avoid danger in the land of Rolmund. We need to keep them."

He looks at the window facing south and continues.

"For example, 'Hyoga', in my experience, the eager to do this seems to be healthier in the winter .... but perhaps it's better to get more sunshine."

Oh, did you analyze that? I agree with my view.

As always, Priest Xanahua seems to be a worldly thinker of precepts.

I'm a little curious and embark on my body.

"Actually, it's" the worship, "but it's not in Miraludia

"I see"

Archbishop Xanawer stares at my face. Seems interested.

I explained to him the importance of sunbathing at high latitudes.

"Mirardia has a longer sunshine, so it may well be in the sun without worshiping. Evidence from this suggests that the believers are all healthy."

"Hum-hu-mum doesn't fit in."

It looks like something was lit by Archbishop Xanawer.

He runs the pen on poor quality paper and notes my remarks.

"It looks like we have one more piece of evidence to support my hypothesis. I believe that the commandments of the Territorial Religion are the wisdom of life that God has given to us. The longer you live, the stronger and longer you live. "

"I'm with you"

I do not believe in God, but I acknowledge that there is a certain rationality in the rules of the Territorial Religion.

Then we talked a bit about the topic of precepts.

We intended to have a light chat, but when we realized, we were eagerly discussing the meaning of the precept.

"It has long been said that it is better to go on a pilgrimage when your illness is prolonged. What do you think of Lord Waid?"

"I've heard from a military physician that it's called relocation therapy. Local food and climate can cause illness, so leaving home can help relieve symptoms."

"I see. It's logical."

While he's taking notes, I'm sorry.

"I think the pilgrimage has several other effects."

"What do you mean?"

"The majority of Huiyang are peasants, but they do not travel much, but forcing them to travel by pilgrimage creates at least three benefits."

I completely forgot what I was doing here, and made a hypothesis that I had always thought about.

"First of all, the economic benefits. Pilgrims spend money on the road, which fuels the economy. Gold must continue to circulate."

"Huh ... um, it's a noble perspective. Please continue."

"Next is the cultural advantage. If there is something rare and useful in the land you have visited, you will bring it home. It may be good farming, a new song or dance."

I receive the cup and drink it off the lukewarm water.

"And finally, a military advantage"

"Is it military?"

"Yes. For pilgrims, lords have to maintain roads, which makes it easier for troops to march on roads in times of emergency."

I don't know who came up, but I thought it was good.

In a country where only Guyan religion is allowed, protecting pilgrimages to Guyyang is absolute justice.

It is indeed convenient for a politician to be able to impose a burden on the lord in the name of pilgrim protection.

"Mirardia's discrepancy with the discipline may be largely due to the history and geography of the two countries."

I say that and return to me.

I didn't come to talk like this.

It was fun and talked about, but what exactly are you doing?

But Reverend Xanawer, with a full smile, nodded several times.

"Wonderful. He has great insight. It is wonderful to have the spirit to verify the precepts."

"... Is it okay to verify?"

"Of course not."

He clenches his fist. The eyes were shining.

Apparently, this person seems to be the same scholarly skin as Eleora. She should be in good faith with her.

"Why does God give us such a commandment? The rules of Guiyang do not impose inconvenience. The commandment itself is a gift from God. The more I examine the commandment, the more I Feel the love of God. ''

The priest Xanawer gladly said, and wrapped a bundle of paper with notes on my remarks.

"Of course, this kind of religion is not the mainstream. I'll enjoy it quietly."

I'm scared of the Inquisition.

I'll be careful.

Priest Xanawer is in a good mood, likely to sing even in a humming song, and then removes a piece of fine parchment.

"Let's write a letter of introduction to Cardinal Tulaya, one of the eight Cardinals who is close to me. It looks like you have the skills to touch the quintessence of Teruyoism. I guess. "

"The essence of Teruyoism?"

"Yes"

Archbishop Xanahua puts the letter together, seals it, and gives it to me.

"The Huyos give the necessary knowledge according to their ranks. I am a priest, but there is a lot of knowledge that I cannot even touch."

"Is it okay to touch?"

"It will probably be decided by Sir Tulaya. Sir Tulaya is the head of the Order of the Scriptures. He is at Willon University in West Lorumund."

I received the letter of introduction and got up and bowed.

"Thank you, Xanawer."

"Thank you very much for your significant and enjoyable time.

I'm shy to be praised.

The person who can understand the story was good.

It is especially helpful to talk with scholars.

Even so, Eleora's guy has a personal connection like a princess. Thanks to this, it seems that Rolmund can also make connections.

You can be more confident because it's a princess you can do.
