The Half-Puny Priest Hopes To Retire chapter 92

92 – Unblessed Wedding (8)

It is dazzlingly beautiful and terrifyingly cruel.

Is there any other sentence that expresses the untainted nature of children more appropriately than this?

There are many expressions that admire and praise the innocence of children, but it is difficult to find expressions that shed light on the other side.

Because of this, many people will inadvertently overlook it.

how cruel children can be.

From ancient times, innocence is an infinitely lovable and gracious thing, but sometimes it shows an infinitely ignorant and selfish side.

”Stand straight.”

”Huh! Ugh! Ugh, brag!”

The saintess, who was holding the hem of her dress delicately and shedding tears like chicken droppings, occasionally looked up at me cautiously.

Those uneasy eyes seemed to reconfirm the incredible reality in front of them over and over again.

There was no way that this arrogant man who had raised his cheek up out of nowhere was the same person as the man who had taken care of his every move.

It was just pitiful to see him doing his best to deny the harsh reality in front of him.

I can easily guess why the saintess, who used to poke the back of her hand with a fork without changing her expression, cried so much because she had only been slapped once on the cheek.

After all, it is not because of the physical pain that heats the cheeks, but the pain in the heart that the pain originated from me.

If it had been me, it was clear that my heart would have softened a little from this point on.

What on earth does the current saintess know?

Using her ignorance as an excuse, using my position as an excuse to condone everything she did wrong, I would have let this turn of events go unnoticed.

However, now that the saintess had crossed the line that could not be tolerated, now that I was filled with a strong sense of mission, there was no room left in my mind for sympathy for her.

”Do not come. Stay there.”

”Huh!”

Even though I had already been kicked out of me several times, I firmly stopped the saintess who was carefully trying to narrow the distance to me again.

She didn’t even raise her voice very loudly, but whenever I spoke, the saintess flinched as if thunder struck.

”Now, wait a minute! Rage’s priest! It’s not because the saintess also had bad intentions! Hee, hee!”

A poorer nun hurriedly tried to intrude between us, but as soon as our eyes met for a moment, it became quiet as if it had never happened.

No matter how unavoidable the circumstances were, the exclusive guardian priest who had to protect the saintess from all sorts of dangers had forgotten her position and instead harmed the saintess. I fully understood the nun’s desire to stop me.

However, no matter how saintly she was, getting innocent ordinary people, moreover, even children who had just taken their toes, to get caught up in it for her own self-interest was a kind of rebellion that I could never tolerate.

With a desperate look in his eyes, he implicitly asked her not to approach this side for the time being.

Fortunately, the nun seemed to have grasped my intentions to some extent, and hurriedly stopped my steps to come toward me.

As if lightning struck right in front of me, I was a bit concerned that I had fallen farther than necessary. Well, it won’t be a big deal.

”Mi, I can’t believe it! Poetry, the priest is like that! You’re so angry!”

Subsequently, the warrior-sama, who hugged the knife in the scabbard like a pillow, let out a trembling voice from time to time as if he had seen some kind of ghost, but I decided to ignore this as well.

who got angry

Right now I’m just a little bit emotional. I was never angry.

Moreover, no matter how much I try and get angry, even a child-like person like the saintess gets a little frightened.

There was no way I could exude a spirit that would frighten a fearless person like the nun.

If that was possible, he wouldn’t have suffered so much even when he got into a fight with the scoundrels a while ago.

”Raise your hand.”

”Huh?”

A heavy voice exhaled with heavy breathing.

For a while, the saintess only tilted her head from time to time, as if she didn’t understand what I was saying.

”Raise it—!”

”Ooh, ooh!”

However, that slow and sluggish behavior became urgent in an instant, starting with a swear word that burst out of my mouth.

Right after the saintess had her hands cling to her ears, the guests in the church also reached out their hands high into the sky.

”May God smile upon you!!!”

I thought that if someone who didn’t know the context saw this scene right now, it would look like they were doing some kind of hurray.

”Someone told me to raise my hand. Well Na. it only takes you Raise your hand straight up again.”

”Ooh, ooh!”

”I told you not to cry. If you cry just one more time, don’t even think about seeing my face again.”

”Huh! Whoops! class!”

The saintess endured the crying that was about to break out even now by urgently pursed her lips.

I wanted to praise him for a moment, but I gave up.

For now, all I had to do was focus on pushing her.

dump! Cheeky!

Before long, the guests filling the cramped church began to sit down helplessly on the floor one by one like a puppet with a thread cut off, and the warrior, who was completely freed from the encirclement created by them, looked around for a moment.

”Hut!”

Fortunately, no one seemed to have fallen incorrectly or in a bad way.

It was a good thing. Because of this, I was able to fully focus on the saintess in front of me without any worries.

”Now, wrong! Black! Whoops! Well, I was wrong. Wow!”

”Stay there. Quiet.”

Although it was very pitiful, the pathetic apology sometimes wet his ears, but he solemnly locked his arms and showed with his actions that he didn’t have a chin to that extent.

”Whoa…”

I pretended to pinch my forehead for a while, and once again I regained my spirit that was about to get confused.

The energy of the body had already been exposed to the floor for a long time, and the mind that was barely maintaining it seemed like it would completely go into darkness just by letting go of the tension for a very short time.

Because I had to stop this time from fizzling out.

He chewed his mouth and constantly awakened his consciousness.

”What did I do wrong?”

”Uh, uh…?”

Starting with that question, the saintess’ eyes began to shake rapidly.

Like sometime in my memory, I could clearly see that it was my intention to just give a rough word of apology and move on.

”I can not hear you? What did you do wrong?”

”Ooh, wow…”

Tears were about to form again in the corners of her eyes, where the traces of red hadn’t disappeared, but my fear that I would never see her again if she shed another tear seemed to have worked well.

To be honest, I couldn’t say that this situation was completely the saintess’s fault.

Because the saintess just didn’t know.

It is not right to try to achieve one’s will even at the expense of others.

There was no one to tell me what was wrong and correct it, and there was no environment to build such an experience, so it may have been an extremely natural step for this to happen.

naive naive

The resonance of the words themselves may be beautiful, but untainted innocence also means that the relationship between me and the world has not yet been fully measured.

If a more thoughtful person had been by her side, this fact would have been noticed long ago.

If she had been given this position by chance, and had been a person with the right qualifications and noble character, rather than the parachute she was always thinking about quitting, it was clear that she would be able to make up for what she lacked without leaving these scars. .

”Now that’s it… Put your hands down…”

”Ugh…”

After saying that, I observed the saintess for a while as she quietly lowered her hand.

One cheek slightly swollen. Anxious eyes glancing at my expression. Her lips were tightly closed to hide the tears even though she kept giggling.

The determination that had been blazing fiercely just a moment ago seemed to cool down.

Maybe the slap was too much.

It was to such an extent that such deep regret bloomed towards the perpetrator who could have caused massive human casualties.

It was also the moment when I realized again that I did not have the qualifications to assist her, that I did not have the capacity to lead her in the right direction.

I became respectful to mothers and fathers all over the country.

Just scolding a child once is so much power.

After all, raising children is not for everyone.

”ha·····. I apologize for causing harm to the guests later, and for now, I’m sorry to the hero…”

”Ugh, uhm… uh, uh?”

”Poem, Father!?”

”Priest Rage’s!?”

It was neither a sense of guilt nor a sense of accomplishment, but a mere commitment that could not be called a resolution, that bounced like a buoy on the seawater in the consciousness that was gradually blurring.

That’s right, when the blessing ceremony is over, let’s put everything down.

It was clear that it would be good for me and the saintess.

Today, I felt it deeply.

That the existence of me is only having a bad influence on the saintess.

let’s retire Let’s retire and leave her to someone else who deserves it.

This time.
