Reincarnation Monarch
Episode 641: Prehistoric
"... it's been a long time since history..."
I told Shester to squeal like he was quite surprised.
Then the priest nodded deeply in what way.
"I can't help but be surprised. But this is true. The church was built at a time that was uninterrupted and ancient, in fact, almost identical to when the records by letters began."
Then Shester nodded loudly and responded.
"You can tell that by looking at this architectural style. This shape with sharp pointed spires on the top of a square column with thick, large columns in four corners… is undoubtedly prehistoric."
"Yeah, you're right. Apparently, you're an architect, right? As I said, this building is definitely a prehistoric relic."
"Yes... but... that's not the problem. No matter how sturdy it was made, the glass in question should be nothing more than glass no matter how far you go...... Isn't it a story that can't possibly be anything that has never broken since history? ……
Then the priest grinned in full.
"Yeah, you'd be right about that, too. But this is true again. There is something like a memorandum that has been taken over by the priests entrusted with this church for generations, but that's what it says there. I've never broken a skylight before."
"... does that mean... from the first priest?
"No, the first statement is exactly what the third generation of priests wrote down. Because the first and second generation memorandums do not have any particular statements about skylights. But there's a third generation statement that says it's never been broken in more than fifty years than it was in the first generation."
"I see... so they said it's not historical because there's nothing after that..."
"Yeah, it is. But unfortunately, there is no other statement. We don't know what kind of material it is or what method it was manufactured with."
Then Shester frowned and asked the priest.
"Father... So what other than that skylight? Is there any statement other than that that that you are equally extra sturdy?
Then the priest waved for the first time.
"No, nothing else. Only that skylight is special for some reason. Of course, this whole church, wooden architecture, has been standing on this land for thousands of years, so when it comes to special, it may be special. But there are few prehistoric wooden buildings, but there are others, and in the same sense you say, there's still nothing else that's extraordinarily sturdy."
"... Hmm. Indeed, prehistoric wooden architecture is very rare, but as the priest said, there are no other examples... Really... are skylights the only ones specially made..."
Shester put his arms together and looked up at the skylight, silently rethinking for a while.
