I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

221 – Part 2 Episode 49, Before the Storm.

Today, instead of taking Eri out like usual, I took Dave to the east and west villages.

This is because Eri did not have time because she was participating in a tea party hosted by Stella.

We’ve been having a lot of tea parties lately.

Well, even if it is a tea party, it is just a matter of having a conversation with female priests while drinking tea and eating ready-made snacks.

Stella thinks female priests are very important.

Even if there are no priests, I am convinced that without priests, the church headquarters as well as the church bureau will not function properly.

Even without priests, the denomination operates.

However, without priests, the cult would come to a halt.

That’s why Stella values ​​priests.

We provided a place where not only the priests who served but also the general priests could take a day off and express their difficulties.

Tomorrow, male priests will be invited to a tea party.

Of course, since I am also an intermediate priest, I plan to go to the tea party.

Well, that’s tomorrow.

Since today had nothing to do with us, we took Dave to the east and west villages.

The reason I stopped by here was, of course, for my hobby.

No, now it’s not just a hobby, it’s to learn skills that will allow me to earn pocket money after I quit my job.

Watch repair.

I’ve been learning hard since last year, but I discovered something that no one but me can do, right?

The ability to use the purification of the holy sword to make metal, minerals, glass, etc. clean and without traces.

After testing it on glass, I also tried it on metals like gold and silver, and it worked well.

However, if it is not close to pure gold or pure silver, it has the disadvantage of being distorted or creating empty spaces.

It seems that except for the main metals, they are judged to be impurities and all are ‘purified’.

Instead, that part is filled with gold.

The law of conservation of mass is somehow sold, so gold and silver that cannot exist are created additionally.

Did the Goddess make an error while creating the ability?

If you ask for no reason and you get embarrassed and your skills are taken away, don’t ask.

“Whoa… it’s heavy…”

Dave holds something in a sack and is on the verge of crying, saying he is about to die.

Those bags contain expensive watches whose frames and straps are all made of gold or silver.

I bought damaged items, but I also bought everything that was difficult to dispose of.

For your information, since it was a trustworthy business, I did not check or do anything separately.

“Even though it was broken or broken, each piece was worth our monthly salary.”

Did I say it was wise man time?

I didn’t pay much attention to the watches when I bought them, but they were very expensive, probably because they were made of gold or silver.

Originally, it was said that these expensive watches were exchanged as gifts…

I don’t know why they sold it, but they are all made by a famous watch company.

Among them, there was one real tier 1 watch.

There is a company that has a strange philosophy of only selling to the really rich, so it’s worth calling out.

“You let your friend say something like that… you really are a bad person…”

“Don’t worry, it’s super cheap because it’s broken.”

At best, it’s 10 years’ worth of our salary.

Even if Dave plays rough and gets completely destroyed…

All you have to do is work without pay for about 10 years!!

Instead, we’ll triple Eri’s salary, so you don’t have to worry!

“….baddie…”

After hearing my cruel words, he grabbed the bag containing the watch tightly.

*

The weight of the gold watch I bought today would be about 20 kg.

Considering that one watch weighs about 100g to 150g, there are at least 130 of them.

“Use… If there are good bezels, there are many that have broken movements.”

To put it simply, there are quite a few things that are fine on the outside but broken on the inside.

Out of curiosity, I took out the holy sword and held the watch, which was broken inside, to the blade.

After using purification, the outside of the watch became extremely clean.

It was so clean that I thought it had just been newly made.

But… no matter how much I turned the mainspring, it didn’t move.

The interior would also have returned to its original state…

I opened it out of curiosity.

“ah.”

When I opened it, the inside was a little strange.

No, it wasn’t just a little strange, it was really very strange.

Originally, watches were not made of one type of metal.

If we use alloys somewhere, we use copper somewhere, we use silver somewhere.

However, this watch seems to have been made of various metals more finely divided than expected.

When I opened the inside, there were no parts inside the movement and only gold pieces fell out.

Due to purification, the parts that make up the inside of the movement turned into gold.

Because the main frame was gold.

“But the glass has been restored to its original state…”

I don’t know what the hell is.

Was glass an exception since it was originally one of the main components of watches?

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand it.

Haha… let’s take a break first.

Even if you just lock yourself in your room and think about it, it won’t help you.

In times like this, you should breathe the outside air and relax.

I have a leisurely life, so why should I get stressed just because there’s one thing that gets in my way?

I came out and went into the yard.

I heard men’s voices, so I checked and found Dave and Cain swinging wooden swords.

Cain… Why does that guy seem to have grown taller?

I think it’s a lot bigger than Dave now.

….He’s really 14 years old and over 180cm tall?

Later, I think he was afraid of Cain and couldn’t tell him to do anything.

“Cain… I don’t think I have anything to teach you anymore. Can’t I just do this on my own now?”

“No! I can’t just stay like this!”

“You… don’t want to quit being a priest and become a knight, right?”

“Huh? Why am I quitting being a priest?”

Cain tilted his head, saying he really didn’t know.

Anyone can see Cain as a member of the Holy Knights, not a priest of the church.

Well, it looks like sword training is fun…

Should I go to the church headquarters with other priests?

Relaxed…

Really relaxed.

It’s like the calm before the storm.

***

There is a word in this world: the calm before the storm.

It’s not a word I like very much, but it came to mind as I was looking at the weather outside.

The sky cannot be said to be clear because it is cloudy.

Still, it can be said that it is the calm before the storm, as the wind is blowing coolly and the temperature is constant.

The before the storm literally refers to a brief period of calm before the storm.

Not only because of the weather, but also because it’s been so calm recently that it made me yawn.

I hope nothing serious happens if a sudden storm comes.

At times like this, something big happens and it bothers you and me…

“What are you doing, West?”

Because the sky suddenly darkened, the tea party was held outside and then moved indoors to continue.

And after finishing, I came to my office and looked at the sky and thought about the West.

I would like to inform you of what happened at the tea party today.

I tell you about my day every day, but today, strangely, I feel like I want to tell you even more.

What is it for?

Is it because my love for you has become stronger?

Hehe, I feel good because I can feel my feelings for you becoming more affectionate and deeper.

In addition, I feel at ease because the Goddess has assured me that Seobang-nim’s feelings for me continue to deepen.

As I continued to look at the weather outside, thinking about my beloved husband and my lovely daughter, I heard a loud noise coming from the hallway.

Basically, my attendants think too much of me, so I try not to run around or make noise. What’s going on?

Just by hearing the sound, it seems like something big has happened.

At that time, the door opened with a bang.

He was a senior priest, one of my attendant priests.

“Yes… Yeha! Big… we’re in big trouble!!”

“Are you saying it’s a big deal? There’s no way something’s going on at home…”

“Not… not my house! Just now, the coastal region of Ojai… was hit by an earthquake…!!”

Where did you come from?

I patted the back of a senior priest who was still out of breath and handed him some water.

I couldn’t hear it completely yet, but a sharp and ominous energy came over me.

The Ojai region is not a religious country, but is a port city in the Principality of Haif, right next to the religious country.

Because it is near the sea, if an earthquake occurred, it would have suffered significant damage from a tsunami.

Naturally, there is a high possibility that small villages in our neighboring country were also damaged.

“I will go to the Holy Father’s office immediately.”

Could it be because of the servants of chaos that you mentioned a while ago?

If so…

The minions of chaos may have already spread not only to the religious world but also to the entire world.
