pov Rudy
when I opened my eyes the first thing I saw was the tree man also known as Trent was looking at my condition.
before I end up in the bed, many of the priestess and priest when to me and gave a proper respect.
although there custom was different way back then but still accept it but before I could even thank them. I already loss consciousness, this makes me a little embarrassing since the priestess and priest don't have many free time.
in fact the priestess and priest job was like the attendance of the gods. they spread the voices of gods and some priest even go as far as joining the expedition like me.
as I sit on the side of the bed. the Trent gave me a new clothes.
the clothes he gave me was white shirt and some pants.
looking at this new clothes I couldn't help but sigh.
"am really in the future."
although I want to complain but there is nothing I can do.
most of my actual clothes was all ripe off and also badly damage.
when I tried this new clothes, the first I saw was this clothes couldn't hide my pack of muscles. moreover this shirt was almost look like it will ripe like my old clothes but the texture was stretch so am not worried.
as I put the clothes on I check the mirror in the side of my bed.
I can see that my face didn't change a bit even though am already a old man... no ancient old man? whatever it didn't change anything anyway.
as I went of my room with the Trent next to me. we both when to the living room where Tasha is waiting for me.
as I reach the living there are three people inside the room. one was none other Tasha.
she was drinking a tea which the Trent served by them.
Trent was like a butler and a servant to Tasha, they carried the orders of there master and even as go as far as becoming her militia groups.
they are useful in everyway since they can also communicate with other plans and the never revealed any secrets.
only there summoners can understood them meaning even I will never understand them but it's different from them.
they can understand every detailed what the people talking or doing and they can adapt in any situation too.
the two other people was unknown to us but the other person was different or rather I know where he came from.
he wore the church clothes and has the churches cross in his neck like some find of pendant.
when the three saw me they all surprised but what's even more surprising was how Tasha blush.
that's strange? did I do something wrong?
as I wonder why? the other person cough and spoke.
"cardinal Rudy please fix your zipper."
"huh?"
as I wonder what is zipper the Trent next to me pull something from my pants. this makes me to be surprised but Trent knows what it doing so I didn't argue.
looking at Tasha, I can see she was still blushing probably because of the zipper thing so I ignored it.
I took the sit in the soft chair next to Tasha and the Trent gave me a tea.
with the sip from the hot tea this remains me of how they world was so peaceful back then before the first demon invasion.
when I put the cup of tea in the table. I look at the new people as spoke.
"greeting cardinal. I am juan the bishop of the thousand gods churches and this is lieutenant general byung-ho."
"hello cardinal Rudy."
as I nodded my head I listen to bishop Juan and then he continued.
"the reason why I came here was to tell you that pope pepe would like you to meet you in person. it's probably related to the God's message since you are already the champion of fertility and moon."
as he told me this, I couldn't help but to be surprised and ask.
"bishop Juan, although I trust you and the church. isn't to go to revealed it to the outsiders?"
as I glance at lieutenant general byung-ho he only shrug it.
the champion of gods was a secret that even the churches will never revealed. this makes me frown because it's like a weakness to the knight.
the bishop nodded and replied.
"don't worry, lieutenant general byung-ho was an allied in fact for all the military in this country. we trust him more than those from the government."
lieutenant general byung-ho revealed the cross pendant in his neck. unlike our pendant his pendant has decorated wings in the back of the pendant make me to surprised.
"the church of wisdom?"
church of wisdom was the group of fanatics who received the wisdom of gods when dangers are near. this people was informant to the people since it was spread it's wisdom to it's follower and the actual priest.
but to receive the gods acknowledgement. they have to trials like the knights.
looking at byung-ho. he only smiled and spoke.
"well am more like a outsider since I didn't came to church but I do believe in gods and I received his wisdom when I was just a poor soldier."
as Juan nodd his head, I sigh and spoke.
"bishop Juan although I want to ask more about the church but I want to know what happened after the first war."
the first war was the first demon invasion. many of the people died in that war and some of my friends including Theodore was crippled too.
if I want to move forward. I need to solve the problem with the dark elves.
as I look at the bishop he couldn't help but sigh.
Tasha on the other hand turned grim. she probably heard what happened but I still ask.
"I don't know much what happened after the war since all the records was burned in the previous war but I have few information about the war."
when I heard 'burned' I starting to raise my eyebrows in surprised.
"burned?! what you mean burned?! the church's record was more important than those of the artifact. not only that hundreds and thousands of pope from generation recorded those events in war. it also contained some of the dangerous individual like demon gods how did it destroyed?!"
when I ask the question, the only thing I saw in Juan was bitter faces. he couldn't say it or rather he couldn't tell to me even if he wanted too.
as the room remain silent for over a whole minutes, byung-ho spoke.
"cardinal there is a reason for this and am sure you will never gonna like it."
looking at him like he was a murder. the lieutenant general byung-ho became serious.
when I inhale and slowly exhausted to remain calm, byung-ho starting to speak.
"it happens probably 100 years ago but the church of the thousand was attack but the group of unknown people. they took several artifact including those dangerous ones like the eye of the evil gods. we don't know who did it but we have a hunch who did it."
when byung-ho was about to continued. Juan spoke solemn.
"we have a hunch that the other group took and burned the church."
"who?"
"..... beastman."
