Meanwhile, at that time.
At the Temple.
"Ah! Today is another perfect day for over-the-top cleaning and dramatic prayers!"
Taro, the stand-in priest with an exaggerated flair for everything, beamed with delight as he wielded a broom like a knight's sword. He was thrilled to be in charge of Temple while the regular priest, Lucan, and the Saintess Maris were away on their trip.
"This temple is a masterpiece! Just being here feels like it's flushing out all the impurities from my body!" Taro declared, sweating and shining with enthusiasm.
He energetically scrubbed the temple's entrance, his movements reminiscent of a high-energy dance routine. His face glowed with a mixture of pride and exertion.
"Ah, Priest Taro, hello!"
"Taro-san, you're really giving it your all today too!"
