"Rejoice, Isaac!"
Isaac dropped the bottle at the sound of a familiar voice.
Turning his head, he saw Lilai approaching with open arms in the garden not far away.
Looking at the sunny face with flowers on that scallop, I think I'm here to read to you again.
No what it is. The book is good.
The mindset of early education to raise a child excellently, very good!
It's a problem to read an encyclopedia-thick history book to a kid who doesn't even know the word mom and dad, but it doesn't matter either!
On the contrary, if we knew the history, we could understand the origin of various techniques.
Knowing the origins would have allowed him to handle the techniques faster and better.
So it's rather good for this Chimatbaram uncle to shove history books!
It's a problem because it's the story of the Skeleton King being dogged by a saint,!
[Oh my God, no matter how poor you are, you rob the saint's purse and run away, isn't she a shoplifter, not a demon king.]
Ah, mothballs.
I wrote everything down in the history books, damn it.
Whisper, who had listened to the whole story as Isaac dozed off, squinted and stared.
[Demon Face....]
Please stop talking! The saints who chased after you and ripped off someone else's leg are worse because you stole some of your wallets!
Anyway, this time, I asked him what else he had brought, and unexpectedly, Lilai held out a small box that was not a book.
Surprised to see the box was Asilly, who was taking care of Isaac.
"Oh my God, it's a ring!"
What? Ring?
Could it be a stone ring? Is it a gold ring?
The corners of Isaac's mouth twitched as if he was in a better mood.
In fact, when Lilai opened the ring case, a beautiful spot ...
"Well, this is your uncle's gift to you."
"...."
For a gift, it is so worn out that it looks like a keepsake of a primitive Iron Age man.
It looks like a lump of junk with less than 1 mg of gold mixed with a stone ring?
So Isaac sent a look of protest.
Woodyuck.
Not far away, a look of jealousy was felt.
Another of Isaac's uncles, Goel, was a bud.
And I don't know why he was so tired of an innocent ring, but his expression was expression.
Judging from the look on his face when he was told that his cousin had bought the land, it must not be an ordinary ring.
Glaring at the ring as proof, Goel was grinding his teeth.
'hell, why would you go over that?'
In fact, even Goel didn't expect things to turn out this way.
After all, Goel was the fifth son of the Eshua family and the Papacy of the Holy Empire, bringing Eshua real power one by one.
It was to attract the pope to the Eshua family and to gain the position of the housekeeper.
And at best, the eldest son, a minor duke, disappeared so that they could take over the place of the housekeeper.
'Lilai, that flower garden bastard has stepped in.'
With Isaac, the eldest son and the saint's child, they cannot hold real power. His son, Shuri, would be blocked from becoming pope.
So I tried to use the treasure trove with demons and dragons to get rid of my infant nephew.
-Yes? Now what?
Goel, who was called to the Senate for a stone-grabbing matter, thought he was going crazy.
- So what support do you give Isaac?
- What are you asking? When it was originally stoned, why not scatter one-time blessings from the treasure house and let them in? Because it's dangerous.
The blessing of the treasury.
Simply put, it was a lifeline to enter the treasure store.
They can't get help from items because of cheating, but they do allow them to at least save their lives.
Knowing the rules, Shuri had received all kinds of good blessings.
- Shuri has already contacted the Holy See and received a blessing, right?
-Yes, because a child's life is precious. It's just an item, so it's not a rule violation, right?
Treasure Vault Blessing Device?
So it was rubbish.
I'm afraid it's not a stone-grabbing place for saints.
The only blessings available in the saint's treasury were basic, low-level blessings.
Goel didn't just use all his money and connections to get the blessing of the Holy See.
The Holy See's blessing is the most outstanding blessing in the Holy Empire!
'So Lilai. Your nephew, who doesn't even have a back in the Holy See, get by cheap. It's my child who brings the good stuff.'
Even if you're disgruntled, what can you do?
Could it be that the saint's child would reject the blessings of the saint's treasury?
What is Ji going to do?
Just like that, Goel looked at Lilai and smiled triumphantly.
- Oh, right. The Treasure Vault's blessing device is broken.
- That's why she told me to lend her a special treasure this time.
-?!
, what now?!
-Five! Yes, if it is the saint's thing, it will be equivalent to a blessing.
- Aing, more precious than the blessings of the Holy See.
- So Lilai to pick things up in the Hall of Saints.
Kerhuh!
A saint's treasure!
No matter how blessed you are from the Holy See, it can be compared to the treasure of the saint!
Goel's eyes turned and he exclaimed immediately.
- That treasure, lend it to my child!
-Eng? You've already received what you need from the Holy See. Plus, Shuri has a scar.
- Oh, no. That's it.
-Since Isaac doesn't have a scar in the first place, isn't it you who said let's put it in the treasure trove?
- Even if it is a saint's treasure, it is only at a lower level. Is it to become an uncle and covet the lifeline of his unscarred nephew? A priest shouldn't do that.
- Tuck, I didn't see it that way.
No, Mr! That's not it!
In the end, Lilai chose the saint's treasure.
And that's what I picked up without hesitation.
[The Eldering]
A ring with a little miracle from God.
An object that has been fighting the Skeleton King for hundreds of years and is now reaching the end of its life.
Although it is an old item that he will only use once or twice in the future, there is no way he does not know that the ring is something secretly coveted by the Pope.
'Originally, I was going to give it back to the Holy See as a donation.'
That was the situation anyway.
Goel could only glared at Isaac with gritted teeth.
Sure enough, he kept glaring at him disapprovingly, and he walked over with a kind face.
"My nephew is adorable at any time."
"?"
"Are you a little used to this house? How worried this uncle was that his precious nephew was crying."
"???"
Isaac looked at Goel like a madman.
, has this bastard finally turned?
Why, it seems that all of Eshua's veins are handsome beauties like the people of the race, but this guy is a bit disgusting because he laughs with a face that resembles the Pope.
"Lilai. If you're going to give a gift, do it right. Do you give me this junk?"
"It's junk. This thing is from the Holy Lady...."
Asili was about to say something, but Goel glared at Isaac as if asking where the servant was intervening, and then smiled at Isaac.
"Isaac is a very precious nephew to me. You're entering a place where your life could be in danger. You have to give them something much better than scrap that may or may not be triggered properly."
Having said that, Goel pulled out a box of similar size from his bosom. At the same time, he exchanged the ring case with Isaac in it.
Well, I mean, this bastard is going to change things.
"Little brother, this is a gathering place for other family candidates. I have to save face. If you give something like this, the name of the 5th Duke will cry. Even if it's just you. The spirit of the saint's family? The advanced paladin is in the front line for less money, so he can only give you this kind of junk."
"...!"
The ring that Goel held out looked too expensive compared to what Lilai had given him.
Just looking at the features, there was no way that I didn't know that it was an item with the latest technology. For Lilai, it's honestly a hard thing to obtain.
"It's a good blessing from the Holy See, in particular. In the treasure house tomorrow, this will be more helpful."
Lilai bit her lip at the sight of the flashing ring.
In my heart, I know that the saint's things are not behind. But it was faded, shabby antiques and gleaming new objects.
The honor of the saint is declining, and the status of the Holy See and the other five major families is rising.
Not to mention what looks better to my nephew.
As if he had read the expression, Goel chuckled and tried to retrieve the saint's ring.
"I'll put this back in... Uh-huh?"
Goel looked at Isaac in bewilderment.
Tight.
Isaac didn't let go of the saint's ring that Goel was about to take.
With a face that asks what your bastard is taking.
Goel whimpered and tried to pull the ring out.
"Isaac...! Didn't you give me something better? Other than this, this is yours... Argh!!"
Isaac snapped Goel's face down with the ring box Goel had given him.
!
"Doe, sir!"
Panicked, Asili hugged Isaac and stepped back, and Goel grabbed his bleeding face.
Goel's servant also rushed over in surprise.
"Are you okay? That's the congressman...!"
But Goel, who normally would have been fiery and angry, smiled that it was okay.
"yes, I understand everything. I don't have eyes to see the holy objects yet. But that's a commodity from the Pope. Much better for you...."
yes,, I don't need more.
Isaac threw the pope's ring into the pond.
Plenty!
"Argh!"
Everyone was surprised when Goel's things fell into the pond, and Goel ran to the pond.
You might wonder what this was all about, but Isaac laughed.
'Do you think I'm going to use the power of the pope?'
It's dirty, so I don't use it even if I ask you to accept it.
And although it lost much of its original color because it was old, it was Chuck if you pretend.
It was a noble item of a saint who had fought for her life against the Demon King for hundreds of years. Do you think they won't recognize you?
I don't know why the saint is being treated like a saint... Not losing,.
After all, it is a saint's thing that is thousands of times worth more than dozens of halfway relics!
Well, they know that, so they're going to exchange it secretly.
Of course, I thought it was not worth it earlier, but it is definitely worth it as a stone ring. When you start valuing it as a relic, the story is completely different.
In the eyes of the current generation of humans, it is a junk scab and deserves to be seen as a low-grade product.
'This is superlative, you can't afford it, why is this?'
It doesn't even compare to what this guy gave me.
That's it.
Durability is running out now, but the Skeleton King had a way to fix it like new.
'Maybe you can restore all the other faded treasures?'
But Lilai, who didn't know that, couldn't speak as if her heart was pounding.
It was as if the little one had told me that even though it was worn out, the saint's things were more valuable than the papal ones.
Still, the Vatican was treating the saint with vulgarity. For Lilai, the son of the saint, it could not help but be overjoyed and grateful.
Even if it's a child's whim.
For Goel, the heat was bound to rise.
"That's what kind of stuff it is. Get me out of now!"
At Goel's command, his servant quickly stretched out a wooden stick and stirred it.
"Sin, sorry! I can't find it."
"No, why can't I find what I just went in!"
"He, that's it, like falling into the depths of between...."
"Why did she throw something deep! Don't make excuses, can't you find it straight?!"
Do you think you'll be found, you guys?
Even if I think I just threw it, I didn't just throw it.
He secretly cast a weight spell to make sure he would never find it again.
It will probably break through the bottom of the pond and into the underground rock layers.
Whisper, who didn't know that, said it was also his master.
[After all, the master who is unyielding to the head of the divine camp! Even if the goods are useful, he will not even touch the things of the filthy bastards! After all, a specimen of the demon tribe...!]
'You come back at dawn.'
[Yes?]
'I'll sell it at a premium later at a premium.'
[....]
Whisper, who was silent, said a word, as if he meant it.
[... Do I really pick it up?]
'Then shall I pick it up?'
Whisper was frustrated.
* * *
"So the Holy Lady's ring ended up being Isaac's?"
At the escort knight's words, Goel became fiery and angry.
"Don't even bring up the Isaac story!"
Just hearing Isaac's name made him angry.
On the other hand, the knight who only cursed was fidgeting.
"Isn't that ring of the saint an object that sucks the sexual power of the people around you and automatically triggers the blessing? Still, she has called the candidates for the saint. Even more so to Isaac Bleed...."
"You're going to have an advantage?"
"Yes, yes...."
The knight noticed, but Goel snorted.
"yes, that ring. You don't have to use your own sexuality, so it's the best thing for a child who can't even use it yet. So the head that picked it up deserves praise. But."
"!"
"You have to have at least 20 people around to use it properly. How many people do you think will come to the stonecatcher? All the saint candidates?"
"He."
"Public opinion of the saint is not good, and it was proposed by Eshua in the first place. Even now, all the nobles think it's an Eshua trap. It's not something we're going to lose, so shut up, but do you think 10 people will come in total?"
The stone-laying place was also Eshua's master bedroom. For the nobles with the saint candidate, it felt provoked, and everyone would probably ignore it.
When you see a shabby empty banquet hall, you'll know what you're doing.
So blame the foolishness of naively holding such a ring, Goel scoffed.
Apparently it was....
"What? How many?"
On the day of the stone, Goel couldn't help but doubt my ears.
"148?! Did you really say there are 148 candidates for sainthood? That number of people came? Here?"
"Yes, to be exact, 148 candidates for sainthood, 3,789 servants and nobles who followed him.... It seems that they came together with a lot of interest, contrary to expectations."
Grabbing the back of his neck, Goel had a lot to say, but he decided to spare his curse.
"After all, the nameless bastards have gathered like moths to the fire."
"No, that's it... In fact, the central aristocracy who knows everything from the great nobles such as the later writers...."
"What?"
Goel's pupils trembled.
The servant rolled his eyes at his master's eyes.
"And again...."
"What else! Someone is here!"
"Until His Majesty the Emperor...."
Goel couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Why don't you self-respecting aristocratic bastards.
Whatever. This number of people!
