Jashin Average – 5 (2/2)
I’ely influenced by the ga else there’s no choice but to try
Since the curse really exists, I think there should exist a method to dispel it too after all, and even if the church can’t do it, if I talk to them about my problems they’ll probably teach me how to approach it
A helping hand to the lost lambs
The church was apparently somewhat closer to the inn, so I’ll head there first
Apparently the inn I stayed in is in the western side of town, but the church is in front of the estate of the ruler’s residence in the northern side, and the Adventurers Guild is near the eastern gate
Turning left at the central plaza, I walked northwards along the road that intersected the east-west road
After walking for a while, I could see a large building before me
That’s probably the estate of the lord of this town
In that case, does thatfeature are the spires?
I arbitrarily had the i about it carefully, that’s only limited to the Christians of my old world, and the churches of this world have no crosses
Upon walking as far as the entrance, I could see beyond the open doors a dignified room that you could call a holy temple
Benches were lined up, and there was a podium further in, and a person who appeared to be a priest was currently preaching
Enshrined inside was a divine looking statue of a Goddess, and people were sitting on the benches and offering prayers towards that statue
Mn, there’s no mistake that this is the church
But still, with such a pure at this curse dispelled
With lightened steps, I headed towards the entrance and went through that do-…MIGYAH-!?
The h the door I collided face-first into the invisible wall that was there
Taking a staggered step backwards because of the impact I took to the face, in front of me was a crack in space
What’s, with this?
Finding it strange, I tiave it a poke, when the crack widened fro that was surrounding the church ruptured and disappeared
“Ah”
Could this possibly be that? A barrier or so?
A barrier charged with holy power in order to ward off foreign eneet repelled?
And ht poke it so easily broke too
When I happened to glance that way, I found that everybody in the church was looking at me, frozen up
It see earlier resounded inside too, and they were paying attention to my every action
U is only at a ‘not completely non-existent’ level, but I realised that from an outsider’s point of view, it looked like I had obviously destroyed the barrier
Now that it’s come to this────
“… … … … … … …Strategic retreat”
I desperately made a s the scene
I don’t hear any screa behind me
That my hood had been thrown off when I bu that I only realised after I made it as far as the central plaza
Frantically putting my hood back on, I decided to take a breather at a cafe by the plaza
While sipping the black tea I ordered, I thought about what just happened
It seems possible that the church had soet repelled by it?
I’… Wai-, is this because of the 『Child of the Evil God』 titlee!?
Mn, I can’t think of any other reason after all, and it probably isn’t wrong
Do people with this title get treated as non-humans? So troublesome
Like I thought, I really do want to give that evil God a punch
With things as they are, it would probably be better not to go near the church for now
I had my face seen without a hood on after all, and I accidentally met eyes with them so with the effect of the ood
It seeive up on the curse removal as well
