2nd Rank Has Returned

Revelation-4

The next day, when the commotion in the temple was almost settled, Leo and Ain got up early to visit the Holy Hwang.

Paladins and priests continued to argue about Ain, but they were also defeated in the confrontation with Leonardo, and the decision rested with Hwang Hwang, so we decided to move on implicitly for now.

“good morning.”

“Yeah, good morning… is it?”

The current time was 4 in the morning, and it was a little vague time to say it was morning.

“I can say good morning.”

Without a blink of an eye, Ain corrected her words. Those dazzling, lifeless eyes were probably those that didn’t need sleep, let alone sleepy.

“Then before you go…”

After tidying up his body lightly, Leo arranged Ain’s body. He combed his hair, brushed off his gray robe, and wrapped it around neatly.

“it’s okay?”

“What do you mean?”

“…just, overall.”

“There is nothing bad about it.”

Leonardo smiled bitterly at the words he didn’t know whether it was a mechanical answer or an answer to not cause concern.

“…sometimes you can also say your dissatisfaction and then…”

“Then get married…”

“It’s a hold.”

I was worried about being insensitive, so I was just explaining emotions like love and affection, or emphasizing relationships like family and children, but I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.

Perhaps if they got married, they would even save a dowry and a house. It felt like I was the last parent at the time when my child was like that.

[Are you hitting your children with iron walls?]

After getting a good night’s sleep, the sage also floated as a spirit body whether he had restored his body. It was truly extraordinary to see Ain next to him clenching his fists looking at the evil spirit.

[Yayayayaya!! dry it! Dry it…!!]

“Ain, it’s a bad looking evil spirit, but let’s put up with it now.”

“Yes, I understand.”

Ain lifted his fist and the evil spirit, whose lifespan was slightly extended, sighed in relief.

[How did you educate your child?!]

＜The intelligent design was done by the sage.＞

Just like the Guardian I saw when I first went to the Sage’s Cave, the Sage was so beggar in designing the intelligence of the Sage.

[You have to do that. You have to be a fool to listen well.]

I heard it was more like garbage.

“Ain, grind hard.”

Leonardo, unable to see his vicious self-defense, gave Ain the iron fist of justice.

“Yes, Father.”

Kwajik!

In his lifetime, Leo had never heard the sound of fist clashing as ‘kwajik’, except for Arya. Does that mean that genes can’t be deceived?

[…this…the scoundrel…the son…]

“Leo Knight! Ain!”

Leaving behind the evil spirit that had turned into rags in one blow, two angels boasting beautiful wings walked towards this side. In particular, Lumine, an adult candidate, greeted with a beautiful smile with a happy heart as if she had had a deep sleep, and Angela, an angel, was terrified as soon as she saw Ain’s eyes.

{roo…! Lumine…!! Exterminate that blasphemous and evil being!!}

It was said that the current angel was beaten a few times by the former saints, and making such ugly noises was an ability, if anything.

“I’m sorry, but destroying Ain-sama can’t be done because it goes against the decision of the tower and the shrine. Lady.”

{I don’t think a smile like that is convincing. Lumine investigation.}

“I am sorry that my sincerity has not been conveyed.”

Looking at it this way, I think Lumine also had a human side. Even with that in mind, I’m on the good side of not asking Ain to hold on to a few more cars.

“Priest Lumine. If you would like the temporary extinction of the angel, you can ask for it.”

At Ain’s sweet suggestion, for a moment, Lumine’s smile hardened and stiffened. After thinking about it for only 5 seconds, Lumine answered.

“……it’s okay.”

{Why are you hesitating for 5 seconds?}

[Why?]

The sage, who had recovered to some extent, could not even identify the foe, and began to babble.

{You are the source of all evil!! Why did you make such a thing…!!}

[hey…! Don’t hit me in pain!! Don’t hit me… Ugh…!!]

Normally, it would have been boiling, but as a sage whose spirit body was damaged by Ain’s fist, he could not win the battle. Ain asked, looking at the sage who had become the saint’s punching bag.

“Can I help you?”

“You don’t have to. Do you want to?”

“no.”

“Then let’s not help.”

Lumine nodded, apparently agreeing tacitly. Hearing the refreshing scenery and sounds from dawn seemed to calm my mind and relax my mind.

“Then let’s go see Seonghwang.”

“Yes? How about Ariaspil?”

“…considering the doctrines and regulations in the temple, it would be better for now not to take them.”

Considering Arya’s reaction, the conditions placed on the tower, and the doctrine of the temple itself, it was necessary to reduce the variable elements.

There was a reason for choosing the time zone as dawn.

Considering the protests to be made from now on, Ariaspil might have been better off not listening.

“It says … Arya’s sister.”

Suddenly, I felt a terrifying sensation. It was partly because Ain simply didn’t have the right answer for the context, but I was afraid that the force of the grip on his shoulder was causing pain in the trapezius muscles.

“good morning…”

Looking back, I saw a young girl who really wanted to be a smiling mother.

“Good morning?”

“…no… good morning…”

“Where are you good? Is it so good that you left me alone?”

Kwajik

“aah!!”

There was a squeaking sound from the shoulder. This must have broken a bone. It felt like my muscles were torn.

I was sure this time. Those two are definitely mother and daughter.

***

“Are you okay? Knight Leo?”

“…Yes…”

Lumine, who healed the dislocated shoulder with divine magic, put on the missing shoulder, and Leo barely regained his energy.

“Arya unnie, let go of your anger. It wasn’t that my father hated my mother, so she was ostracized.”

“…”

Arya glanced at Ain’s expression in her arms. Even as a human before being a girl, she had a very indifferent expression on her face, but on the contrary, it was even more cute and lovable as she resembled Leo’s picture when she was young.

“Who does my daughter look like, so she is so kind~! It’s okay! it’s okay!! Mommy is all over now!!”

Arya couldn’t stand the indifferent aegyo, hugged her and rubbed her face and body.

“I was like my sister. And I resemble my father who will marry my sister.”

I don’t know if you know that I made a huge noise with an expressionless face.

“My daughter is Hyo-nyeo! Hyo-nyeo!! I must be a mother soon!!”

I hope you will consider my embarrassing position as well. Very.

“First… calm down. I will explain.”

Even if Leo tried to pull Ain away, he could not overcome Arya’s soft arms and legs in many ways.

“Explain. My child is listening.”

[It sounded very tasty.]

you shut up Even if you don’t ask, you are the culprit behind everything.

“It’s okay for Miss Arya to feel affection for Ain. I am the same about that.”

“…but you are refusing to marry me?”

“…but you are refusing to marry me.”

The mother and daughter were so cute and disgustingly identical. Thanks, this was the only problem I had.

“The problem is that the doctrine of the temple denies the treatment of ‘artificially made intelligent creatures identical to humans’.”

The essence of religion was ‘human morality’. Sometimes the concept of morality is a matter that is higher than the law or status, so the status of religion has no choice but to rise.

And the existence of Ain has become an agenda that goes beyond ‘morality’ and touches ‘human’ itself.

“…However…”

Ariaspil must have imagined it too. What is the dilemma facing Ain right now?

If Ain was recognized as an intelligent being, it would not be subject to dissection in the Magic Tower, but instead, it was clear that he would be slaughtered by the heretical inquisitor of the temple.

Conversely, if it was not recognized, that was the problem. The defense so far will be meaningless, and the forces against Ain will gain power.

“…so it was difficult to ask Arya, who emphasized motherhood, to go with her.”

If that happens, Arya’s position as the hero will become unstable, and the perception that the conclusion about Ain is objective or not will be unavoidable.

“…”

Arya thought for a moment, then opened her mouth.

“Dad loves Ain a lot.”

“…why does the interpretation go that way?”

Aria looked at Ain and Leo with warm smiles. Neither demanding nor alluring, benevolent warmth emanated from Aria.

“Leo always tries to take on the things that are important to him. Still, he is kind to himself.”

“That’s right. She is also Arya’s older sister.”

When the two of you said that, the sense of hearing was different. Could it be because they both looked that way?

“Thank you for that. But let’s think about it together.”

“…but I don’t know if it’s causing trouble…”

“Let’s think about it together. Not only for you, but also for me. It’s a bit disappointing to be able to do something but do nothing without knowing it…”

…I didn’t know that I would receive such a point from Arya. She was the one who knew that feeling the best, but Arya continues to ponder it and try to share it with each other.

“…I have to reflect. That’s correct. miss.”

“okay? If you repent, get married…”

“I will put that on hold.”

Arya’s expression softened at those words. This is what I was aiming for from the beginning.

“…is your father an eunuch?”

Whoops, the horse stung. obviously stabbed Otherwise, there would be no pain like this.

“no. Ain’s father is very healthy. For many reasons.”

With a meaningful expression and tone, Ariaspil said with a benevolent smile.

I appreciate the defense, but am I the only one who finds it difficult to respond to such defense?

“…First of all, wouldn’t it be better to go because I’m late for the promised time? Considering the character of King Seonghwang, I don’t think there will be such harsh treatment.”

It was strange to see this kind of love mixed with family love and lust, so Lumine arranged the situation and rectified it.

“I guess so. Go quickly.”

“Yes, Father.”

“Yes, Ain is the father.”

I heard the sound of all the explanations I’ve given so far, bursting and disappearing like bubbles. It was a pity, but I didn’t say anything because it was pretty.

“Who is Seonghwang?”

Still, Ain was trying to gather information as to whether he wanted to find a solution in his own way.

“Hmm… Seonghwang-nim is one of the most radical among the successive emperors.”

As the saying goes, the current Seonghwang was a radical group who pursued religious reform even at the age of well over eighty.

It was also thanks to the reform direction of the current prosperity that it did not force missionary activities and made religious freedom and conversion easier.

[Your left? Aren’t all the priests a nerd?]

{What do you mean?}

Ignoring the subsequent hitting sound, Leo and his party went to the center of the temple.

“You have come. good morning.”

Prosperous Pietas Indulgentia greeted the party with a friendly smile. Even though he was old, he purposely met him at the door, which made him feel his virtue and consideration.

“hello. Seonghwang.”

“I have heard a lot of stories. He must be Ain.”

“hello. Seonghwang.”

As if Ain followed Leo, he greeted with the same tone, expression, and content.

“If it’s not rude, can I just talk to Ain-sama for a while?”

“…Yes? that…”

Leo, who looked at the group for a while, looked at the success again and said.

“Yes, it is fine. are you okay? Ain?”

“No problem.”

Ariaspil seemed a little worried, but she knew the virtue of the prosperity and decided to trust her daughter.

“Then I will go.”

At the crossroads of life with great success, Ain entered the room.

***

About 20 minutes later, the door opened.

“The conversation is over.”

“…so soon?”

I thought it would take an hour at least…

“So how… did it happen?”

“I have come to a positive conclusion in my judgment.”

It wasn’t just hard words. It was a little, but Ain’s lips and voice were mixed with emotion.

“The officiant said that Seonghwang would stand. Or, you said that you would ask permission from Priest Lumine, who is also an adult candidate, so I don’t think there’s anything to worry about.”

it wasn’t

Why is the whole world so upset that I can’t get married?
