Chapter 105

Sorry, I had work yesterday, so I wasn’t able to translate. Today, I just got distracted by Fate/GO after work though.

Iris" injuries healed, and so Iris and I decided to go out together.

At first, we discussed about how we went out to scout out the Daguza and Angas Faiths.

However, in the end we got involved in the mess, and I wasn"t able to train at all.

I thought it"d be nice to have a proper opportunity.

When I said that, the other 3 made delicate faces.

They ended up approving of it reluctantly.

Iris, who was at the meeting place was wearing a parka on top of a striped camisole.

As before, her trousers were hot pants.

"Ah."

When she noticed me, Iris *tokotoko* came up to me.

"Pl,please take care of me."

Iris gave an awkward greeting.

"Yeah, me too."

"So, where should we go?"

"If you"re fine with the same as everyone else, Dubram?"

The capital of the Island Kingdom, Dubram.

I had a number of opportunities to go there, so I became somewhat knowledgeable about the city.

Mainly about restaurants and apparel stores.

"Yeah, I think rather than a big city like that, a quiet place would be better."

The moment I heard that answer, I stiffened up.

c.r.a.p, I didn"t prepare any plans for other cities.

"Th,then, how about we go to a town near my hometown?"

She must have sensed that I didn"t have any plans.

Iris proposed that.

"By your hometown you mean……"

"It"s deep in the mountains of Istham. As expected, there"s too little to do in my hometown, so there"s a peaceful town a little more away from the mountains."

Iris" hometown is a city that pa.s.ses down the legends of the Evil G.o.d.

Well, even if I do something there it"s not like they"d notice.

I accepted that, and Iris took my hand and transferred.

My sight distorted, and when it got back to normal, I could see some peaceful rural scenery.

"A town……?"

I tilted my head.

"Tentatively, this is cla.s.sified as a town in this country."

Apparently this town is called Dalam.

The population is about three thousand.

Even if we decided to eat first, you can only to the point you can count them.

On Iris" recommendation, we entered a small wooden building.

The menu was small, and the cooking wasn"t very refined.

We ate a salty soup and hard bread.

"Even when I went to Rhodan, I had this food."

It just means that the countryside"s food situation is like this.

Iris yearned for her hometown"s cooking.

When we finished eating, and I tried to pay the bill, I noticed something careless.

I didn"t have any Istham currency.

"Is it alright even with foreign currency?"

"Yeah, rather, it"s something I"m grateful for."

When I asked that, a manager-like person responded.

"Are the two of you travelers?"

The manager explained.

Since Istham rebelled against Scottyard at the anti-demon conference the other day, they became unable to borrow money from them.

Naturally, they were in a pinch, but the measure the Istam King took was to give up repaying them.

In other words, the country"s bankrupt.

"No, is that okay?"

"Well, trade with other countries has stopped, so there are some who are troubled, but this country is a small country in the mountains. We can somehow manage to be self-sufficient, and the majority of the people don"t mind."

The serenity of the countryside is something to be feared.

I"m sure that Scottyard intended to take revenge on them, but apparently it didn"t work much.

The exchange of currency has also been suspended.

However, there"s an off chance that foreign currencies might come in handy.

That"s why, I was able to safely pay with Briton currency.

After we finished our meals, we sat on top of a hill.

While basking in a pleasant wind, we looked over the area.

"Tentatively, this is a sightseeing area. Like that mountain for example."

The mountain that Iris pointed at was Old Tranford Mountain.

It"s a mountain range in the tallest cla.s.s of in the world.

In the middle of it, there was a huge gaping hole.

"Apparently that was destroyed by some mysterious power during the second demonic calamity, along with the demons and the Maou."

"H,hee. I wonder who did it?"

I answered in monotone.

"G.o.d came to save us. Thinking that is only natural. You can see that mountain from my hometown. Somewhere along the line when I was praying daily, I became a priest."

In eastern countries, the Bridget Faith is mainstream.

Iris became a priest of the Bridget Faith.

Afterwards, having her talent approved of, Iris was recommended to Rhodan"s Cantabridge Academy.

Then she met Yufilia and the others, and told the hero who defeated the Maou of the legends.

The result was that day.

The day when Yufilia and the others came to the Dark Temple.

Not much time has pa.s.sed since then.

Ever since then, I"ve gained freedom.

When I remembered that time, Iris called out to me.

"Would you lie down for a bit?"

As I was told, I lied down.

The feeling of the gra.s.s is pleasant.

"Please close your eyes too."

As I was told, I closed my eyes.

Well, if I use magic then it"s possible for me to see though.

Two small hand approached my head, and lightly lifted it.

Then, when it was released, it was supported by something like a pillow.

However, it was a warm pillow.

Huh? What"s this?

"You can open your eyes now."

When I opened my eyes, Iris" face was in front of me.

I looked up at the two large bulges from below.

I was put on a lap pillow.

Underneath my head, are raw plump thighs.

"まｚくぁｒｒぺｄぉ(Translation: What are you doing?)"

I felt shaken.

"Ara, it seems like it went well."

Iris *kusukusu* laughed.

"Tentatively, this supposed to be training, so you have to do at least this much."

Iris" face blushed a little.

"ふぁｔかひぇｍｒまｓんｔごいｒんｄｙ(Translation: If you"re embara.s.sed, you don"t really have to do it.)"

"I don"t understand what you"re saying, but this is my thanks."

I didn"t understand the meaning of what Iris said, and tilted my head.

"Ahn, nn, that tickles."

As a result, I ended up tickling Iris" thighs, and Iris raised her voice.

"むｎぁい(Translation: Sorry.)"

However, even if she says "thanks", I have no idea what she"s thanking me for.

This time, I don"t think that Evil Fever was revealed to be my work.

In the first place, she was openly angry about that, so she wouldn"t thank me.

"You said it right? That increasing our amount of followers is what I want to do."

I nodded to Iris" words.

"Ahn, th,that"s when I thought: why am I increasing our followers? That"s because it was the faith"s orders."

Iris made a face as if she was tickled for a moment, and immediately returned to her serious face.

"Following that, I tried to win over followers. I don"t think that was wrong, but there are multiple more important things than that."

Iris put her small and sweet hand on my face.

"I became a priest because I wanted to heal people. That"s something that fulfills G.o.d"s intentions. It just means I was immature, having my heart sway over the fluctuation of followers."

Iris smiled sweetly.

"That"s why, I decided to move as I wanted to then. Ashtal-san, you were the one who made me realize that."

"Is that so?"

I seemed to have calmed down, and I was able to speak as usual.

Honestly, what I did didn"t turn out well, and I didn"t intend to give her that much advice.

However, if the results ended up positive to her, then that"s good.

"That"s why, can we stay like this for a while?"

We pa.s.sed time in those stances for a while.
