Reversed Parallel World‘s Messiah

Book 5: Chapter 6: Sister Marietta

The day after I went to Julies house, I decided to head to the church to meet the sister I was introduced to.

Of course, Edith was there to escort me.

Yesterday was a terrible mess.

She said as she walked beside me in a mortified manner.

Im sorry. I guess I pushed myself a little too hard.

I was too exhausted to walk properly after having sex with Julie yesterday, so I asked Edith to help me on my shoulder on the way back to the mansion.

Because of this, we had to leave a large portion of the fruits that Edith had harvested behind.

This was also why Edith is in a bad mood right now she hadnt obtained the fruits that she had been looking forward to.

But Julie said shes going to make jam out of the fruits we left, so now we have another thing to look forward toright?

Edith sighed openly as I said this.

Haaa, it cant be helped. But you definitely have to make it up to me next time, you hear?

Alright, but take it easy on me when that time comes, okay?

With that, Ediths mood improved, and we started walking again.

Oh, by the way, the church were going to is an Eros Church, right? Are you also in it, Edith?

She nodded when I asked her that question.

Of course. Rather, is there any woman in this world who hasnt joined the faith yet?

So, its that widespread

Ive heard its widely believed in, but I didnt expect the influence to be this wide.

If they put so much faith in this religion, its definitely a great importance if I want to know this world better.

After about ten minutes of walking, we arrived at the said church.

Since its located near the center of the city, it just shows how important the facility is.

The church building is made up of bricks, and although its not that big, its still a magnificent one.

Well then, Ill be excusing myself because I still have to help out with a few things.

A few things?

Theyre no big deal. Ill be back in a few hoursAlso, Ill be damned if it becomes like the time with Julies, you understand?

Y-yes, I understand.

Edith gave one last scary look to remind me.

Then, she chuckled as she walked away.

After regaining my composure, I walked inside the church.

Pardon for the intrusion.

Inside, there is an altar-like structure at the end of a row of chairs, just like the Japanese churches I saw in my world.

From the way they look, the interior can seat about a hundred people or so.

Since there was no answer, I walked to the back, to where a statue of a woman is placed.

Is that their idol, perhaps?

Ara, a black-haired manare you perhaps Sir Tomoaki?

Someone spoke, and I turned around.

From there was a beautiful blonde girl wearing a what supposed to be a nun outfit.

Shes a bit shorter than me, but still pretty standard for a womans height.

She also has a kind expression of her face, exactly like whats expected of a nun.

However, as expected, her clothes are also very revealing.

Its already on the level that one could think of it as cosplay.

Yes, Im Tomoaki. I was introduced to you by Julie.

Ive heard a lot about you. My name is Marietta.

Nice to meet you, Sister Marietta.

I lowered my head in introduction, but she stopped me.

-! Oh no, please dont. I seem to be younger than you, so please call me Marietta instead.

She muttered after she took a gasp, as if she had confirmed something.

youyoure really not turning your eyes away from me

Marietta is a beautiful woman, after all.

Beautifulthis is the first time I was told that in my life.

Mariettas face turns red at my words.

At first glance, shes also the natural beauty, so I cant help but think she came to this city after being kicked out as well.

Then, after clearing her throat to regain her composure, Marietta asks me.

You look like its your first time seeing a church from the way you gaze around. Is it your first time?

I came from a really far away land, you see. Can you tell me more about it?

To think theres a male who wants to know about Eros, Im surprisedWell, if you want to know about the religion, I cant think of a more appropriate place than here.

Thank you. That would be really grateful.

Even so, this will take a while. Mind if we go to the back of the church first? To properly accommodate you as well.

Yes, with pleasure.

With that, I was led from the side of the altar to the back of the church with Marietta leading the way.

This is the only place available, so please bear with me in the small space.

It was a simple, unadorned room.

Theres only one chair inside, aside from a bed, maybe because they werent expecting any visitors here.

Having no other choice, I sat down on the bed.

This may be preposterous, but is Marietta the only one running this church?

Unfortunately, yes, since there are no clergy who wants to come to this city. That said, this church isnt officially recognized, so

Well, the city itself is not officially recognized either.

But there are also a number of other unofficial churches, not only in this city, so even though its not normal, its not uncommon either.

She continues, I dont know if it was to defend herself to inspire herself further.

Still, I cant deny that if it wasnt for the help of Julie and the others in this city, I wouldnt have managed to get by up to this date.

By help, you mean-

Yes, she shares some of her crops to the church every week.

So thats what their relationship was all about.

Still, to think a dark elf, of all the other species, to be closely related to the church, is fascinating in its own way too.

Then again, this is a reversed world.

Then, can you please tell me about the Eros Religion?

Sure, ask me anything you want.

Finally, were getting on the point.

First, I want to know where the Eros religion began.

it all started when an epidemic began hundreds of years ago.

The origin of it came from an illness?

Yes, but it wasnt that deadly. However, although it didnt affect the peoples lives at that time, it affected their fertility. Meaning, the ones affected by the disease had their chances to impregnate or be impregnated drastically reduced.

It sounded more serious than I thought.

As there is no known cause or cure, the disease easily became widespread, affecting the majority of the world and even dampened peoples sex drive.

Im surprised humanity didnt perish from there.

Thats because it was when the guru of Eros was born.

Marietta suddenly became quite enthusiastic when she brought up the founder of the Eros cult.

She might not have been given a name, but one thing was for certain that she was a woman.

Shes getting more and more heated

As she felt that the fate of humanity is at stake, she traveled around the world in extreme costumes and took the initiative to mingle with men. Then, with a group of women inspired by her, she set up the Eros cult, which then became the major religion we have today.

So thats what defined the values that we have today. But what happened to the disease?

It naturally disappeared about a hundred years ago. However, the men who were ravaged by the disease for several generations had low sex drive even after they recovered, and even today, the birth rate is only being kept up by the activities of the Eros Religion.

I see, so it was all caused by a disease.

Of course, the commandments of Eros Teachings subtly changed over time, and has now added some commandments, including to be more proactive about sex anytime, anywhere. Now that the disease is gone, we now have more rooms to maneuver.

Come to think of it, I saw women mingling with each other in the open when I came to this cityto think thats also part of Eros teachings

Nevertheless, that was a very spirited commentary.

When I said that, Marietta gasps and blushes.

Aah, Im sorryits just when it comes to teaching Eros Religion, I become-

No, I think youre great, Sister Marietta, being able to work hard for what you believe in.

Sir Tomoakithank you.

The people of this city must have been very supportive because the church has a good sister like her.

Ah, to think I even forgot to serve tea to my guest Ill bring one to you now.

You dont have to do that-

She left before I could even stop her.

After a few minutes, she returned with a hot drink.

Here you go, our churchs special tea.

Oh, thank you very much.

I took a sip and enjoyed Mariettas tea with its pleasant bitterness.

The aroma is excellent as well, to the extent that it wont lose even against the ones being served in the mansion.

To tell you the truth, that tea is made from the wildflowers that I picked op near the city.

Wow, I didnt think of it at all. It was very delicious.

Fufu, thank you very much.

Marietta smiles, happy of being told that it was delicious.

Shes like a Holy Mother.

You see, I put in a lot of effort making it especially for you, Sir Tomoaki. Im glad its all worth it.

You came all the way out there for me?

Yes. The Eros religion are all women. For a man to take an interest in it, its already an honor for us.

Well, in that case, I have to dedicate myself to savor it before I return.

We continued chatting for a while.

However, I didnt notice it at that time.

That the tea made by her, an ardent believer of the Eros Religion, couldnt possibly be an ordinary tea.

Like a hare that obediently slid in a hunters snare, I was perfectly caught in Mariettas trap.
