I Was Chosen as the Saint’s Husband

chapter 227



227 – Part 2 Episode 55, Someone keeps throwing stones at the window.

The paid vacation went by at the speed of light, just like every other time.

There was so much going on this month that I couldn’t even put my head together yet, and my paid vacation was over.

That doesn’t mean you can rest any longer.

Since you are a mid-level priest, you have to work hard.

In the end, I woke up early in the morning and went to work with the priests who served.

From what I heard, starting this month, not only will we be training priests among ourselves, but additional lower-level priests will be brought in, so it won’t be difficult due to lack of manpower.

In addition, this time, people who were originally nuns are receiving training as priests to become priests, so they are working with a more docile and relaxed mind than expected.

The nuns last time were very quiet, weren’t they?

This time too, I don’t think it will be difficult because the nuns are very gentle people.

Can’t we just make it so that from now on, only those who have been priests or nuns for at least three years can become priests?

I think it could be run like a police academy or military academy.

“Now, follow me.”

“yes!!”

He yawned loudly and told the prospective priests to follow him.

Somehow it happened that it was already time to show the dormitory.

They say time goes by faster as you get older, but is it because I’m also getting older that time goes by faster?

I’m just sitting there blankly watching other people move in unison, and it’s already 5 PM.

But I’m a bit sorry because I feel like I’m playing too much of a free winner.

It’s just that there are so many people that I don’t have anything to do, but if someone I don’t know sees it, wouldn’t it seem like I’m skipping work?

So, I decided to guide the dormitory.

After telling the other priests to get some rest, he tours the dormitory alone and shows them around.

“And here… huh?”

From the moment I came in, I felt a little bit out of place.

I tilted my head and went inside, wondering what that was, and it was only then that I discovered the identity of the sense of discomfort I was feeling.

The laundry room here has a courtyard.

The courtyard was separated from the laundry room by a single glass wall and a small glass window.

However, before coming inside, the window appeared to be open.

It’s a window that shouldn’t be opened.

And when you come inside…

The glass window that was supposed to separate the courtyard from the inside of the laundry room was completely broken.

And gorgeously, too.

The scattered glass on the floor was shining like jewels in the light of the magic lamp.

“Why is this broken?”

Strange… Why is this broken?

What was there at the back of the new building’s education center?

From what I remember, there was a cardinal’s hall…

No one can go in there, right?

“Why such a big stone…”

Anyone could see that it looked like it had come from the back of the courtyard and the glass had broken.

And in the back there is only the Cardinal’s Hall.

So, the stone was thrown from the direction of the Cardinal’s Hall.

So I didn’t understand.

“Well… first of all, you can’t use the laundry room until it’s cleaned up. I’ll show you somewhere else first.”

“yes!”

The nuns seemed a little embarrassed, but I brushed it off as if nothing had happened, so they nodded.

The window is broken…

I can’t believe there’s someone at the church’s headquarters who would pull pranks like that.

Is that really expensive glass?

Glass is cheap when it is small, but as the size increases, the price increases like mushrooms.

For example, the windows of my house that were stored in a warehouse.

That guy would cost about 30 silver coins to buy a new one.

You may not realize it, but 30 silver coins is equivalent to my monthly salary.

How can you burn your salary on a joke?

I might be able to fix it with my purification magic, but it’s probably better to leave it alone, right?

After completing all the guidance to the prospective priests and reporting it, members of the Knights Templar came and began an investigation.

The Knights Templar also has a team like the Forensic Investigation Unit, so when an incident like this occurs, different Knights Templars check the scene depending on the type of report.

Those people are called coroners.

If there’s a murder or something like that, these people get very busy.

However, it seems that our denominational bureau is not busy because the rate of violent crimes such as murder is very low.

Nevertheless, they are very popular because they work hard when they do it.

There are many people who apply to the Knights Templar because they want to become coroners.

Such passionate people are not assigned to the church headquarters, but to other major cities.

For reference, this is Sabang village where we live now.

Among them, the northern village is a small village that is not even a city.

The villages in the east, west, and south are not that big.

You can think of it as something like Washington DC or Sejong City.

The largest city in the religious country is more than 300 times the size of Sabang Village.

It is not a country with the strongest capital, like the Republic of Korea.

Because it is also a religious country.

It seems that developing other cities has become a priority rather than developing the capital.

“Your Majesty, did you hear any noise before you entered the dormitory?”

As I was watching from afar, the chief medical examiner approached me holding a notebook.

Seeing that he is sighing heavily, it seems that his stress is not that bad.

“No. I didn’t hear anything like that.”

“Hmm… I guess it will be very difficult to find the culprit.”

I scratched my head with my pen, sighed again, and closed my notebook.

After that, he cleaned up the glass and withdrew with the other coroners.

“Should I restore the glass?”

It’s not nice to see it empty.

The cold wind from the laundry room may spread throughout the dormitory, causing people to catch colds.

Chilly weather.

It’s almost winter…

Although the breath is not coming out yet.

Nevertheless, I tried to blow out my hot breath for no reason.

“Whoa… oh, it’s coming out.”

On Earth, it’s only mid-November…

***

After the glass was completely restored, we returned to where the priests were waiting.

The attendant priests and the additionally mobilized priests were having various conversations with each other.

Among them, there is also the motivation of me, Dave, and Etheria.

Originally, he only did extremely hard work, but this time he decided to move to a place where his body was more comfortable in order to get some rest.

If you want to relax, this is the best place.

If you work hard for a month and get paid vacation for a month, you can rest well, right?

by the way…

When I came in and sat down, the priests were having an interesting conversation.

It looks like they are trying to guess who broke the window.

There is no evidence or anything that cannot be inferred.

“From what I can see, it doesn’t seem like someone threw it from the outside and woke it up… it looks like it was woken up by looking at the courtyard…”

“Staring at the courtyard? So, you’re saying you woke up in the laundry room?”

“There were pieces of glass that had fallen into the courtyard. And inside the laundry room, there were pieces of glass spread out a little unnaturally, right?

Wow… this is a reasoning that makes me nod my head as I listen to it.

So, the reasoning seems to be that the stone was thrown from the laundry room toward the courtyard because the glass shards protruded more naturally on the other side.

However… there is one thing that cannot be explained in that case.

“Then how did they get the stone inside?”

“Hmm? Yes…yeah!”

The two people were surprised as soon as they saw me.

Since they were priests I had never had a conversation with before, they seemed surprised as soon as they saw me.

He raised his hand saying it was okay and brought a chair in front of them and sat down.

“I want to know how you reasoned.”

“Well… it’s a guess I tried once, so it doesn’t really help…”

“Still.”

What I’m curious about is this.

If you throw a rock in the laundry room inside the dormitory, you must camouflage it so that it appears that you threw the rock from outside.

However, there is no way into the courtyard from inside the dormitory.

The way to enter the courtyard is to open the iron window facing the main entrance of the Cardinal’s Hall and go inside.

Naturally, the cage has a key and no one can enter.

The key is kept in the administrative office on the first floor of the Cardinal’s Hall.

And the window wasn’t damaged enough for people to come and go.

It was broken larger than a stone, but no one could enter it.

Then, how on earth did they get inside and put the broken stone inside?

“Well…that’s it…”

When I asked the priest, he scratched his head.

I guess I didn’t expect that the door leading into the courtyard could not be opened by anyone.

Personally, I like reasoning, so I was hoping we could have a deep conversation.

After all, lack of information is inevitable.

Since I restored the glass, there won’t be much damage, and the investigation will be over.

It’s a shame, but this is the end of the guessing game.

I thought….

Until an incident where windows broke here and there!!

Who are you?

The guy who breaks the glass at the church headquarters.

I guess I’ll be the only one busy for no reason.
