The plain and unnoticed me is no more

82. This could be fate.

"Irina, Father, I will turn the Virgin into an enemy, will you be on my side?

Despite a sudden offer from a stranger named the healer of the journey, Irina and the priest responded without any hesitation.

"Oh, of course. I think you are the real Virgin. Yesterday, I mistook the length of my hair and clothes for the boy, so I'm very sorry."

"If I hadn't let you save me, this life might have been exhausted. And if you can help those children who are still suffering in the temple, I will do whatever I can. What can I do for you?"

When I heard this, I somehow felt very guilty to the two priests by disguising themselves and concealing their identity. If you want us to be on your side, you should show good faith.

I took a deep breath and slowly removed the disguise wig and exposed the hidden platinum blonde hair inside. Irina glanced at my hair, blurring her eyes, blushing her cheeks and holding her mouth down with her hands.

"Ahh... that hair...! No doubt, you were still a goddess!

"No, I'm not a goddess. My name is Elaine Norris."

"Norris...?

Irina reacted to the name Norris. I think we have a large donation to the temple at home, but do the witches even know that?

Witches and priests were originally aristocrats, but they left Yuji at a young age, and I wondered if they were familiar with the names of aristocracy.

"Are you Elaine of the Duke of Norris? His Highness Frederick's fiancée? Ah, I'm sorry, but at your wedding, it was decided that I would perform a blessing dance. But the Virgin took His Highness away....."

Oh, I see, so... Irina-sama's dance must have been beautiful.

Nevertheless, you and Sandra look different from one person to another.

Sin said that the Emperor used her power to make the Virgin, but from Irina's perspective, it looks like the Virgin took her from me… I can say that, but the original reason is that the Emperor made a little noise to Sandra. Without it, the two of us would never have made contact.

If His Highness hadn't called, Sandra wouldn't have been able to do anything. Sandra was just a pretty normal girl back then.

"Elaine, is she really a saint? I don't see it that way. Let's just say you have something evil in you... there was an endless leakage of black fog from the inside. Ah, the black fog is a visible state of jealousy and resentment, but everyone has small ones. Though I can pray for it, the Virgin's things have gushed forth, whether they be stolen or stolen, and I have been attacked by the fog in my service. I've never seen anything like it."

Irina must be pretty spiritually powerful, but even if she didn't know who she was, she almost got the right answer. And you have the power to hold it back. So it's like she's not the Virgin? The Virgin could have deceived the devil.

"Irina, she is an ordinary girl who was born as a saint as much as possible, but could not become a saint."

"What does that mean? Does that mean she's not a saint?

"Yes, I'm not a Virgin. But unfortunately, I'm sure she's a prophet."

Both the priest and Irina looked at each other and waited for my next explanation. To put it simply, this is the case, but I need to explain it in more detail.

I told him about the very virtuous saint's soul, which is the core of Sandra, I heard from Leviant before, and explained why she couldn't be a saint even if she did so, and about the fairy who fell into darkness, and I told him that she had taken her mother's life in childhood, like Irina did.

"Oh, my God! Even if I didn't know, I couldn't let my mother die... He will be punished! It's horrible... how people's desires can lead to the loss of someone's life."

You don't know Irina, do you? Extremely few people take the lives of others because of their own desires. For example, I want money for a drink, but that's all I can do to kill people easily.

As you may well know, witches and priests spent their childhood in the temple without knowing anything about the unclean state of the world.

And then I realized.

Talking about fairies, these two were not surprised.

"Are you familiar with the presence of fairies, Father and Irina?

"Yes, I haven't seen many lately, but there used to be fairies flying around. It looks like a priest or a witch. Does spiritual power matter whether you see it or not?"

Well, then, Sin also has spiritual powers. It's even more powerful than Taki. Taki said he didn't see any fairies of weak light, but Singh saw fairies of fairy light that I didn't see either. He doesn't talk about himself, but does he really have the same or more power as Taki? It seems like they usually live under complete seal. They both said they had magic, and the truth is magic...?

"Master Elaine? Anything bothering you?

"Ah, no, nothing. Well, I usually call myself Lana and work as a maid general at the fairy lodging pavilion there. I'm here today to see if there's anyone else in the temple who's been hurt by Sandra."

The priest was surprised to hear it and opened his mouth.

"The Sumitomo Pavilion... haha, that makes sense. When travelers stopped by before they left, I heard several times that staying there would cure my illness. Besides, if you eat, your health will recover. I see. Is that so? So, after all, who is Elaine, the shining goddess? Haven't you heard about it yet?

Oh, that's right. I was trying to tell you who I was, but I was just happy to be named. It has nothing to do with me being the daughter of the Duke of Norris and being able to use the power of the Goddess.

In terms of blood lines, Alford's grandfather is more involved than the Duke of Norris.

"I am descended from the goddess Linatemis."

"What?" "What?

The priest and Irina opened their mouths with their eyes wide open and showed the best reaction they had ever seen.

I went on to talk about the myth of Linatemis, written in celestial script, and surprised the other two.

"And I was born with the flesh that inherited Linatemis' blood and a soul made from a part of the goddess. Father, my great-grandmother is an aristocrat from Artemis, named Lana. And the obsidian that the priest gave me was from Artemis. We're kind of connected."

When I smiled at the priest, he started talking about his childhood.

"A walking jewel, Lana Kronheim's...? I met him when I was a child. The country has disappeared, and the people have become dust biters... is that so, that person's..."

"Well... you really got along."

"The Obsidian was destined to go back to you. Whatever you gave me was hidden, Lana. At that time, he shared his amulet with several unaccompanied children as they fled a natural disaster. If you have any trouble, tell them to exchange it for money."

After all, the priest was from Artemis. Besides, I've not only met my great-grandmother, but I wonder if this obsidian stone belonged to my great-grandmother. Is this fate? Me and the priest met to see each other?

"Ah... I have to go now. I have work to do, so I'll be back. If you'd like, please come to the cafeteria for dinner. Irina, I'm going to ask you about the temple again. Now, if you'll excuse me."

I put on a wig again, put on a hood and left the church behind.

I don't know what it is, but I met someone with a connection to my great-grandmother. Artemis, a small country that sank to the bottom of the water and is now a lake. I want to go someday. If my power is the same as that of Linatemis, I may be able to manage the accumulated water.
