3 – Summon another world (3)

“But it’s a bit strange. Why did such a high-ranking saintess’ husband

Not you, but someone else?”

From what I heard earlier, it seems that the existence of a saintess has a higher position than the pope who is elected among the cardinals.

Its authority is not great, but it is said to have authority just below the goddess Hellenes.

If you use a religious word, in fact, it seems to be considered close to an incarnation.

However, it is not that such a valuable person chooses whom to marry.

I don’t know why I marry someone else.

If I were a saint, I would suffocate the heads of the pope and high-ranking priests who were talking nonsense…

“Because that is the fate given to you by Helenes, who gave it to you.”

“What exactly does that mean?”

“We only do what God has ordained.”

“So, is it fate that I was summoned here?”

“Yes, sir.”

Suddenly, her hair tickled and she scratched her head.

So, what the pope is saying

Isn’t the reason I was summoned here because the Goddess chose me?

“Were the husbands of previous saints chosen like me?”

After hearing the question I asked, he shook his head at once.

Then he took something like a square card out of her pocket.

I began to lay out one by one on the desk.

The first card he pointed to was

A person wearing expensive clothes was drawn.

“Usually, when choosing a husband for a saint, it is common to choose one from among domestic and foreign nobles or priests.”

“If it’s common…”

And on the second card he pointed to by moving his finger,

There was a figure drawn that looked like a priest to anyone who was wearing a white priest’s uniform.

“Yes. If there is no proper person among the nobles, the next best thing is to choose among the clergy of the same age.

Usually, between the ages of 19 and 22, the selection is made, and ‘somehow’ I end up with no problems on this side.”

“But, that seems to be a problem.”

“That’s right. Unfortunately, most of the good people are the children of parents who have a great desire to succeed or have a great desire to succeed.”

And once again, I moved my hand and headed to

It was a card depicting a warrior wearing a nice sword, shield, and armor.

“The option to summon a hero is made when the ‘demon king’ appears or an emergency similar to it occurs.

This method is not uniquely chosen by us, but by the Lord Helenes himself.”

“How does the summoning of the warrior work?”

“If we earnestly pray, the Goddess will summon us as soon as possible.

Of course, when the Goddess judges, if it’s not a demon or an emergency equivalent to it, she ignores it.”

So, saving the saintess’s husband is an emergency equivalent to the appearance of the demon lord, right?

I heard that the saintess missed her wedding date this time…

“How old is the saintess this year?”

“She’s on terms this year.”

I am 20 years old.

Are these people treating 20-year-old spinsters?

For a moment, I almost panicked because I was dumbfounded.

“Twenty? Does that miss the wedding date?”

“I don’t know the world you were in, but in our world, from the age of 15, people are treated as adults.

It is natural to get married before the age of 25 at the latest.”

Well, even if it’s plus or minus

In the end, if you don’t get married by the time you’re 30

It’s similar to treating an old virgin.

It’s close to the idea of the 90’s.

“Then isn’t there enough time left?”

“The goddess Helenes is also the goddess of marriage.

A saintess who stands high in the church should be an example to other believers.”

“That… I see.”

Nodding moderately, he lifted the cup that was on the table.

I sipped the tea inside.

And then I looked at the scenery outside again.

Outside, you can feel the feeling of the European powers of the year 1900.

Considering the background of those days, I don’t think it’s hard to understand that a 20-year-old was treated as an old virgin.

“How many of your questions have been answered?”

“Um… I see… Thank you for your kind reply.”

“hahahaha, Your Excellency is a kind person. I think you will be relieved.”

“Hanshireum… Why?”

“Come to think of it, I’m late to tell you. I actually…”

The Pope took a deep breath and exhaled.

Until recently, the atmosphere was a bit playful, but

In an instant, it started to give off an atmosphere like exchanging heavy and difficult conversations.

He repeated swallowing in his mouth for a while.

After thinking and thinking many times

As he put it on, he started talking to me as if he were declaring it.

“He is the father of the saint’s subordinates.”

Anyway, this Pope seems to be the person who will become my father-in-law.

***

“Well, even if it’s a father, it’s not a real father.”

“That’s very fortunate.”

“Yes?”

“Yes?”

“Kheum .. It’s a long-standing custom. In order for the pope to maintain his authority, he adopts the saintess Empress as her adopted daughter.”

Since it was a system in which the saintess reigned over the pope, she made the most of the relationship.

If something happens, it’s because the saintess’ adoptive father! Because it’s the saintess’s family! While doing this

Maybe we can make a way out.

“Then… The saintess’ biological parents…”

“Saint Yeha was from Cheonae orphan.”

Looks like me, an orphan who doesn’t even know his parents’ faces.

I couldn’t believe it a little while ago when I was talking about fate

We’re the same age, we’re from the same background…

For some reason, it feels like a bit of fate.

“And there’s one more question I’d like to ask…”

“Ask me anything.”

“After I marry the saintess, what should I do…?”

The saintess will get married for a reason, and I must have been summoned.

No matter how incompetent a person was chosen to be the saintess’s husband,

There should be at least what the church wants.

I ate deeply and swallowed.

In exchange for marrying the saintess, the condition I have to pay.

To fulfill that condition.

It’s nice that even a fool like me can find a way to get married.

In addition, it is called a saintess.

I feel like I want to do it even though I am not thankful.

“There is nothing specific.”

However, contrary to what I expected

What came out of the pope’s mouth was a really stupid answer.

No?

Why?

Isn’t it a pseudo after all?

“Marry the saintess and live happily ever after. Other than that, I have nothing else to ask of you.”

“Something like being hired by the church to defeat monsters…?”

“How can you drive a precious adult into a rough job?”

From the image of the Pope shaking his head and shaking his hands vigorously, saying that there would be no such thing.

I felt sincerity.

As if I was invited to someone else’s house and I went to play, but I said empty words saying that I would even wash the dishes because I was sorry to be beaten.

Should I say that the other person rejected it for granted?

Well, I called because they needed me over there.

If you ask for more, it’s really dishonest.

“No, I have a favor to ask of you.”

“Oh, is there any?”

My voice sounded stupid.

As expected, is there such a penalty for marrying a saintess?

Well, if you want to marry a saintess, you’ll have to take care of one or two troublesome things.

“If you become the saint’s husband, I want her to become a priest of the Hellenes religion.”

However, what the pope brought up was a request beyond my thoughts.

Ask to become a religious priest is definitely not a difficult task.

In addition, there must be a special feature of being the saintess’s husband.

“That’s not difficult… Maybe I’m from another world…”

“Because the goddess Hellenes is the one who embraces all strangers and pagans.”

Hellenes doesn’t know much about her goddess, but

She seems to be quite a kind and broad-minded goddess.

I wish I could learn a little about the god of the world I was originally in by watching the goddess Helenes.

“Then, I will obey the Pope’s word.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty. Thanks to you, the status issue will be resolved peacefully.”

“Status… Is it?”

“Your Majesty is a person from this world, so he doesn’t have the status of this world.

I wouldn’t know if it was inside the Hellenic Order, but if I risked my status as a hero, the husband of a saint, in an outside country…”

“That’s terrible.”

“You are kind and understandable.”

If I were a priest, whether it was an orphan or the son of a high-ranking priest, there wouldn’t be any needless quarrels from other countries.

It was because it was ‘natural’ for a saintess to marry a priest.

By the way, rumors are spreading that he married an outsider from another world to a saint without knowing his identity properly?

It’s hard to imagine what the followers of the goddess and the followers of the saint will do…

“Then, would you like to go downstairs and meet the saintess who is waiting for you?”

“Are you waiting for me?”

“Because this is the moment that her saintess has been waiting for for her entire twenty years.”

The pope said he was not his real father, but

The wry smile on his face was that of his father sending his precious daughter away in marriage.
