I Shall Survive Using Potions!

Chapter 22



*** Temple of Balmour Kingdom ***

Actually, it was called only as Temple

Because theres only one God in this world that is goddess Celestine

There is no need to bother to name the temple because everyone in this world worship only Celestine.

Even if we try to distinguish it from sects of other countries by differences in fine doctrine, we will just call it Goddess Orthodox Faction

Archbishop Sornier (: Sorunie) is the one with highest ranking in this Kingdom.

Below him, therere a few bishops, more priests, chief priests, monks and so on.

There are several people below the chief priest in the temple of the province, and the priest usually work in the large temple of the kingdom.

There is no distinction between men and women on these ranks.

But there are women called Shrine maidens (T.N: Miko) that are completely separate from these.

Shrine maidens have no meaning like Bride of God because our god is a goddess.

But goddess Celestine has a figure of a girl, and people think that they will need a girl to hold conversation with the goddess.

The shrine maiden who had contact with the goddess, even if married or became old, their title is still retained.

Title that higher than archbishop are cardinal and pope whick only exist in the Holy Empire Rueda.The Pope holds absolute power in the temple. Unlike the King, his words might affect many country all together.

As for country other than Holy Empire, whenever something happens, they will need to be wary of whether the Holy country will issue religious instructions under the name of the Pope.

Goddess Celestine has the appearance of a girl. Sometimes, she appears to give an Oracle to inform human about disaster within several years to decade.

But for over 50 years, there hasnt been any oracle and the majority disaster. New generation of those working in the temple hadnt experienced the advent of the goddess.

The faith of those working in temple start fade away, they use goddess name as a mean for moneymaking, corruption spreading.

A temple official knew that the goddess hadnt showed for more than 50 years, and that the oracle that was released from the Pope of Rueda Holy Empire was created by the Great Temple of the Holy Land without permission.

They dont really believe in Goddess, so they dont really scare of Goddess punishment. They even dare to use Goddess punishment to threaten people.

Bishop Sarazan.He never saw the descendement of the goddess with his eyes, and he climbed to this rank just to have a rich life.

The image of the goddess is a gentle looking girl was also a factor makes Sarazan to think that Even the goddess is real, she wont get angry over some trivial thing

* Bishop Sarazans POV *

Did you say there was an angel of goddess?(Sarazan)

Bishop Sarazan just got the information from lower aristocrats, spread to other priests and finally reach his ear.

Yes, multiple nobles saw a miracle (Priest?)

This is stupid.In the past record, the Goddess always makes a direct Oracle.

She had never given Oracle through an intermediary such as an angel.She simultaneously appeard at the great temple of each country and told the priestess and the priests directly.

Its already 53 years since the last oracle.

Was this little girl using some tricks successfully adopt it in a noble family ?

No, wait.

Whether she is a genuine angel or not, doesnt reall matter.

If the people and the nobles believe in that rumor, I can use her well

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Even if she is fake, I will just push all the blame to her that faking to be angel and trick everyone.

Im also just a victim who was deceived. There will be no problem.

I can use her to make plenty of profits

Fortunately, the archbishop and other bishops hadnt known about her yet.

I will be the first one talk with that little girl and become a caretaker for her.I can get the information from the aristocrat included the whereabouts of the little girl that the royal palace examined.

In the royal palace as well, there are a lot of people who are indulged of faith after all.

Call Dorun Priest(Sarazan)

Bishop Sarazan ordered the priest Dorun ready to go pick up the girl after he got the information.

* Back to Kaorus POV*

The day after Kaoru dropped by the castle gate.

When cleaning the front of the entrance of the workshop, a staggering horse-drawn carriage came.

And the one inside opens the window asking from inside

Is this place Maiyaru workshop?(Dorun)

(Oh, somehow I have a bad feeling ) (Kaoru)

Kaoru stopped moving the broom in her hands and answered.

Yes, this is Maiyaru workshop, I am Kaoru(Kaoru)

Because it would be troublesome, Kaoru decided to deal with it soon.

When he heard the reply from Kaoru, the man came down from the carriage.

The man around that age 50, had plenty of fat, wearing gorgeous clothes.

However, it isnt aristocratic clothing.

Im the priest of the Great Temple, Dorun, the bishop had called you, come! (Dorun)

(Oh, another one )(Kaoru)

Priest Dorun, who was ordered by Bishop Sarazan to bring Kaoru to him, was also similar to bishop Sarazan.

When he was told to bring An angel from Sarazan, he was thinking about the same thing as Sarazan.

Of course, since he is in Sarazan faction, he was full of obsession.

Like Sarazan, he doesnt think that Kaoru is a real angel so theres no piece of respect for her.

In the first place, because the order from Sarazan isnt invite her but take her along

I refuse (Kaoru)

Huh (Dorun)

Dorun didnt know what to say for a moment in the response to Kaoru.

In any case, it was unexpected, to think such a commoner that dare to oppose the words of the priest.

Priest Dorun face gradually turns red.

Insolent, what are you saying! This is the bishops order!(Dorun)

Well, because Im not from this country.

I have no duty to obey what people in the temple of another country.

Besides, people of clergy dont have any right to order people(Kaoru)

You(Dorun)

As Kaoru replied, Dorun became more and more angry and tried to grap Kaoru.

People start gathering because of the commotion.

Notices that there are a lot of people gathering, Kaoru continues.

What are you trying to do, forcing the girl you dislike into the back of the temple

And then tell people that no-one saw that girls appearance.

And a few days later, that girls dead body will be found on the riverside

Please pardon me(Kaoru)

Ki~, you, you (Dorun)

Dorun who turned red raises his voice shouting.

You, you arent afraid of the Gods punishment! Goddesss anger (Dorun)

Gods punishment? Goddess anger?(Kaoru)

Kaoru faintly smirks.

Something like this?(Kaoru)

DO~O~ON!(SFX)

The roof of the horse-drawn carriage was blown away with the explosion sound.

The explosion was due to something like nitroglycerin that fell on the roof from above.

Hii~iii ! (Dorun)

Dorun is falling to the ground.

The horse carriage was also damage. Two coachmen that try to run away also lose balance and fall to the ground as well.

Pon!Pon!Pon!! (SFX)

There are a series of small explosions around the fallen men.

To me, the angel of the goddess.

And you who dare to use her name for your benefit?

Who do you think the goddess will be angry at and give out her punishment? (Kaoru)

Hiii~iiiii !!(Dorun)

Dorun stood up desperately and ran away at once.The two servant coachmen were also running after him.

And the rumors spread like wild fire.

The priest of the Great Temple try to abduct the angel and make the goddess angry

The temple insulted the angel and the punishment fell etc.

*** Royal castle ***

Your majesty, this is serious!

The temple tried to abduct the angel, and got the goddess punishment! (Knight)

What !? (King)

A young knight was astonished in an urgent report from the spies who kept guarding Kaoru.

(Goddess punishment!

A few hundred years ago, Goddess Celestine got angry and one country had been destroyed

This is bad! Really really bad!) (King)

Brother, what shall we do! (King)

King Serju usually serve as the king splendid, but when he is in pinch, he often relies on his older brother Roland.

Calm down, Serju!

Anyway, you must secure and protect the angel!

Well, the angel had said I will not go into this royal castle and I will not listen to the royalty of this country or any other great noble

Thats mean, it will be okay as long as the place Isnt the royal castle.

And, I will not listen is to say that she will not be compliant, it does not mean that we cant talk to her!

As expected from brother!

I will immediately dispatch aristocrats who arent GREAT at all!(Serju) (T.N: sorry for the cap)

Aha haha(Great Nobles? maybe)

(Becareful about the way you say it, Serju, you are the King )(Roland)

The King brother Roland mutters so.

Your majesty did you call me?(Lyotal)

Yeah, if you think about it,

You are the only noble who has an edge with the angel and isnt GREAT at all. And you also remember the face of the Angel

Eh(Lyotal)

*** Temple ***

*Archbishop POV*

Oh?Is that Priest Dorun ?

This is rare.

He usually isnt enthusiastic to work. He only wants to serve aristocrats or large merchants.

To think that he can keeps praying eagerly

Archbishop Sorunie who casually dropped by at the chapel saw the appearance of a priest, who serious pray unlike usual, nodded in satisfy.

But wait, when I look closely, something is strange here.

Rather than dedicating a god prayer. He was more like pray for his safety. Did a demon (Celes lie in chapter 2) attack him or something.

He was driven by fear, Obviously, This was an unusual atmosphere.

What did you do, Dorun?(Archbishop)

When noticing the archbishop, Priest Dorn on his knee.

Oh, the archbishop! I, I am outrageous !!(Dorun)

And Dorun spoke everything to the Archbishop.

Astonished, Archbishop became pale as well

We must go pick her up quickly! Call Bishop Perrier, this is urgent!(Archbishop)

At that time, Bishop Sarazan thought that the return of Dorun priest was a bit late. But he didnt really care too much whether his daughter would go to the temple and spend his time dressing up instead.
