v3c3 (2/2)

In the first place, when I first saw the job, even I think that there is no such thing.

It feels like years since I last went to h.e.l.lo Work. Actually, not even two months has pa.s.sed. It can be lonely sometimes when I remembered j.a.pan, and I wondered what will happen from now on.

“When G.o.ds created this world, They ordered us people of the shrine to overseer this world in shadows as They silently watch from above.”

“In shadows?”

“That’s right. We only watch silently in the shadow. We’re not involved in politics or any secular power. We only help in a form of an Order, as Treatment Centre, and as orphanage. Iya, it’s obvious that we’re doing our job like this. We just help a little bit, though. Even in our shrine, we’re serving various G.o.ds. What Masaru – dono doing right now is also one of the G.o.ds wills.”

Is it really G.o.ds wills? I wonder what is G.o.ds thinking by sending me to this world.

Isn’t it more like a test play(テストプレイ) where the scene is destruction of this world and I’m supposed to save it, plus it’s not like I have a choice too. Moreover, I will never answer any such expectation in the first place.

But this shrine is quite different from the one in my world. Is it because here has a real G.o.ds. Back in j.a.pan, a religion is always a.s.sociated with ceremonial occasions or event like Christmas. It’s not like this shrine is that bad though.

“Plus.”

And the bishop continues.

“There are many shrines scattered throughout this world. I’m sure there are lots of benefit to be a.s.sociated with our shrine.”

It’s the same as what Tessian – san from the Order said.

Un, I have heard about the same thing before. It should be more than last month since I’ve heard about the same thing.

I already knew about it so it kinda become boring to hear it so many times.

“Iya, I’m sorry for talking about this thing for a long time. Let’s continue our conversation next time.”

The story about the shrine is interesting, but I had enough of this talk about solicitation…I wonder if this world is in bad state. Or is the demand for healing mage just that high?

“But that Robert. How dare him not telling me about this. I’ll have a nice long talk the next time I meet him.”

I’m certain that s.h.i.+nsai – sama back in my town is called Bert – san.

“Do you know s.h.i.+nsai – sama?”

“The town of Siory has the same parish as here. That Bert guy used to be my subordinate.”

So, he is s.h.i.+nsai – sama boss. Not someone I should anger anytime soon.

“Well, I’ve been taken care by that s.h.i.+nsai – sama, plus I’m the one who asked for help, so please don’t scold him.”

“I see. He’s a dutiful guy. I promised I’ll not scold him, if that’s your wish. I’ll not interrogating him either.”

“If I’m not mistaken, I heard that some priests will also tag along with the second team. If they didn’t come today, then they will come tomorrow.”

“Oh. Hey, hey, did you know? When Robert was still here long time ago…”

Just when I was listening to the Bishop – sama interesting story, suddenly the door was opened violently.

“What is it, so noisy.”

I wonder what. We all are in the mood to be talking already.

“Bishop – sama! There are ma.s.sive people injured! We already tried our best, but us alone are not enough!”

Sati?! My heart is about to pop out. I immediately drink Magi tea and wear the mask and priest cloth which I left on the bed.

“What is the current situation?”

“For now, we still managed to stop the demons at the second wall of the fortress…”

“If necessary call the Templar Knight to help protect the second wall.”

“But their force is already…”

There are many healing mage inside the Order of the Shrine, and most of them are versatile unit that can both battle and support. But they are aa exclusive force to the shrine so their battle prowess is precious. It’s not a good choice to let them partic.i.p.ate in the frontline and reduce the shrine battle power.

“There will be neither us nor children if the second wall falls.”

“I understand, Bishop – sama.”

The messenger priest go out.

“Let’s go! I will use Area Heal if there are too many injured people.”

s.h.i.+t. Is Sati okay?

That’s right, Sergeant – dono! I’m sure she is always with Sergeant – dono. There’s no way anything can happen to her. I won’t accept it if it does.

The shrine hall looks exactly like a pandemonium right now.

There are many people crying and injured. They all grab the priests and plead for treatment. To make it worse, right now, there are more injured people coming than leaving.

Oi. That person over there, he looks like he’s already…I try to avoid my gaze from him.

“Jingu – dono, what should we do now?”

“Eh? A, aa…”

Danilo – dono shocked me from my daydream. I must start treating now.

Fortunately, Sati is not amongst them. She should be safe. It’s okay. Even Sergeant – dono is around to protect her.

I should focus on the disaster in front of me first.

“I’ll start preparing for Area Heal. Please gather all the injured nearby me.”

“Understood.”

I check my MP. I already recovered a lot by sleeping overnight yesterday. If it only once, then there is no trouble to even invoked Area Heal at the same scale like yesterday.

I took the Magi tea out of my Item Box and drink it. Urgh, taste as bad as ever. But, I should not be concerned with the taste right now. I should focus on treating first.

New injured people keep on being brought in.

“We’ll begin the treatment soon! Please wait for a while! The treatment will start shortly!”

One of the priest announce so. Danilo – dono comes to me soon after.

“Jingu – dono, we are all set. Please.”

Start chanting【Area heal】ーーー

It is somewhat very hard to focus my mind due to the horrible sight in front of me. That’s not good. I need to concentrate. More!

Casting complete. Activate!

The hall is wrapped with light for a moment, after that all the noises stopped.

I overused my magical power. I’m now on the floor, nearly fainted.

“Hey, you okay?”

Danilo – dono anxiously supported me. Other priests also start gathering around me.

“Yea, I still have some magical power left. Let’s continue with the treatment.”

I have about 10% MP left. It’s okay if I only normal Heal next.

It’s not like I can only use Area Heal. If it’s only minor injury, then it can be completely recovered. Even if it’s a major injury, then they can be recovered to the point they can move a bit. My normal heal should be as powerful as Mid Heal.

もっとも込める魔力増やせばリ アにエクストフヒールかけられるだろっけど、満タン状態でもMPがもになかもしれな。(wait, what?)

“Please leave the remaining to us and rest.”

“But…”

Many new patient coming in while we’re talking.

“Currently, there are only two people who can use Area Heal, Bishop – sama and Jingu – dono. Thanks to Jingu – dono, our works have lessened a lot. Please leave it to us now.”

Certainly, Area Heal is more efficient than casting Heal separately.

“Thank you so much. Danilo – dono.”

The priests each went to give treatment. I guess I’ll just heed the advice and stay obediently over here.

Besides, I am concerned about the situation at the wall. I’d like to go check out how Sati is doing.

“I’m returning to my room.”

I went back to my room. There, I changed my priest cloth to adventurer outfit. For now, I only have a little bit of magical power left. I should not waste any time.

Hang on, Sati. I will go now so please wait!
