How a Former Pastor Lives in Another World

36

Priestly Ordination (2)

Saint Germanicus is a saint of the religious order who fought and defeated the devil that descended two hundred years ago and banished its spirit to the demon world.

As he went into battle to fight against the devil that was disturbing the world, the Holy Spirit came upon him and the blessing was placed on his armor.

In this way, the Holy Armor of Germanicus has a powerful sanctity that can suppress evildoers just by walking around, and it usually provides explosive protection in an instant by condensing and storing sunlight.

A holy relic that has been passed down from generation to generation to the Knights of the Sun as the saint’s armor after the death of Saint Germanicus.

Vice-captain Jonathan, who offered this powerful relic simply as an invitation to join, was in fact putting his position on the line.

When Vice-Director Jonathan’s shiny armor was revealed, the eyes of the heads of the organizations turned cold.

‘An item like that without permission from the manager? ‘Is that guy crazy?’

‘Hoho…Vice-Captain Jonathan made a bold move. dare.’

“Hehe…”

Vice-Captain Jonathan looked confident.

No matter how much Ray Anderson was confirmed to be a huge hit, he would have never thought that he would offer a saint’s relic as a reward for joining.

”I can’t lose!!”

However, it is not only the Knights of the Sun who are fully prepared.

“Brother Anderson. It’s been a while.”

“Ah, yes. Director Ibella.”

During Ray’s entrance exam, he was met by Director Ibella, who recommended him to join the choir.

She smiled like a kind grandmother and said while holding Ray’s hand.

“Brother, I enjoyed the new hymn you submitted last week. It was a truly gracious hymn.”

“Ah, yes… thank you.”

“How could Soltera give me such a talent? I was sure. You are a genius among geniuses.”

“Haha… that’s too much to say.”

Ray would often send hymn sheet music to the choir. Of course, it is an appropriately modified version of the modern Heavenly Hymn.

Of course, Ray is not a genius, but he has over 600 hymns left, so if he solves them all, he will be considered a genius for the rest of his life.

“Brother, don’t you want to join the choir? I think you could take over as conductor of the sanctuary right now.”

“······!”

“Are you serious, Director Ibella? You are a conductor for a member who has just joined!”

“Aren’t you taking it too far?”

The leaders of the institute are surprised by the conductor’s reaction.

It was worth it.

The Solarion Choir operates the choirs of the five vocations of the Vatican. He said he would entrust one of the choirs to Ray.

The Solarion Choir is the most fundamental choir in the Church of the Sun.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the conductor of this choir opened a direct highway to success.

Since the next position after the conductor of the sanctuary was that of Director Ibella, the head of the choir, it is not surprising that the youngest director was born!

‘No, is this agreed upon? I guess it was customary for a bishop-level person to be the choir director?’

‘Hehe, you can just leave it to the newly built 6th sanctuary. And others agreed.’

Prior to coming here, Prior Ibella reached an agreement with the leading bishops of the five vocations.

How did you come up with the idea of appointing a 16-year-old conductor?

“Haa… Haa… This hymn. A hymn. It’s beautiful… It’s wonderful…”

“Brother Lei must be a genius! He is truly a treasure of the Church!”

“These many hymns are only a small portion, right? How many gracious hymns must be in your head!”

“Then, we will proceed assuming that we have obtained your consent.”

“You can’t lose a hymn! You can’t lose a saint!”

The hymns that Ray often presented had a great impact on the Solarion Choir.

The hymns released by Ray are also hymns, but many composers of the choir were greatly inspired by this cultural shock that occurred 500 years ago.

The unfamiliar melodies and modern rhythms and chords, rather than fixed chants, shook all their music theories.

“The composition of this hymn is completely different from the polyphony we use! The discovery of a new form… No, it is an improvement!”

“We need to develop new instruments! What we have is not enough for this music!”

The Solarion Choir is the church’s grand choir and at the same time the largest symphonic powerhouse.

Music is a cultural industry that requires a lot of money, and it is bound to be a wealthy group that sponsors and supports it.

The country is the continent’s largest and wealthiest country. It can also be said to be the center of music, spreading its hymns across the continent.

Ray’s presence alone was enough to further develop the continent’s music culture.

‘You look like a snub-like old woman! What, fair? ‘I prepared from the beginning with the sole intention of eating you!’

This was not something that Vice-Captain Jonathan, who dropped off the saint’s relics, would say.

“Ugh…”

Healer leader Amelia was taken aback by the crazy bidding on prime properties.

Compared to other organizations, the Healing Corps is the organization that has the least connection to Ray.

This is because Ray’s abilities were far from healing.

‘So, I tried to promise support that only a veteran senior priest could receive…’

Bishop-level treatment for holy relics?

Isn’t this an unconventional bid that promises money and success?

However, there are procedures for coming here and taking out at least one holy relic.

If we receive an agreement in advance like Vice-Director Jonathan or Director Ibella, there is nothing we can offer right away.

‘You’re the next adult! A genius among geniuses!’

It’s a waste to miss. Of course, just because stigmata is engraved does not mean that everyone awakens to it.

There are numerous cases of plots by evildoers who have noticed the existence of stigmata, or cases of people simply not being enlightened and awakened.

But Ray Anderson proved it.

He has defeated two of the demon’s minions and has the special power to destroy demons.

Although he is hiding it for security reasons, the Vatican is keeping an eye on Ray Anderson.

There was a high possibility that he would become a fortune just by having him with him.

then.

“Brother Ray.”

“Ah, yes… Captain Amelia.”

“This, this….”

“Captain?”

Ray looked at the staff that Director Amelia held out.

The shape of two snakes entwined and looking at each other. It is a symbol symbolizing the art of medicine and is a holy relic given to healers of the healing corps.

And when you become the head of a healing corps, the relics are no less effective than those of a saint.

This is what Director Amelia suggested.

“As for this staff, just by holding it, you can drive away diseases and exercise the power of healing without using the power up to 20 times when active. Although it is used, you can say that it has become more powerful because my holy power has melted into it. If you go to the Kingdom of Albion or the Empire and show it to them, they will recognize it and provide various conveniences…”

‘Something······.’

Sounds like a mail order salesman.

However, from Director Amelia’s explanation, I could see that the wand’s performance was incredible.

‘Chief Amelia! If you give me that, what are you going to use it for now?!’

‘You just have to get a bird and tame it!’

Director Amelia was proud in front of the heads of organizations who looked at her in bewilderment.

If you don’t have anything to give right away, just give me what’s mine!

With even Director Amelia offering unconventional conditions, everyone’s eyes now turned to Archbishop Dunwell.

The Order of the Sun and the Eclipse Institute.

In fact, he is the most likely candidate for this priest’s ordination ceremony.

“Everyone is so overheated. It’s really a surprise event and this old man’s heart is pounding.”

Archbishop Dunwell had a benevolent smile but a perplexed expression.

Vice-captain Jonathan was delighted when he saw that expression.

Yeongtaeng, you haven’t prepared anything!

“Everyone has really prepared a lot. This old man has only prepared one book.”

Archbishop Dunwell took out a neatly wrapped box.

The expressions on the three heads’ faces hardened.

“No, wait…”

“Archbishop, really?”

“Hehehe, I guess it’s just a small gift.”

Archbishop Dunwell removing the wrapping paper. Then a Bible appeared.

The antique book, with its age and beauty intact, had a cover made of dark brown leather and an elaborate eclipse pattern engraved in red and black in the center of the cover.

“Eclipse Bible…!!”

‘W-what is that?!’

The old Bible presented by Archbishop Dunwell, which seemed to be unknown to Ray, surprised everyone.

“This Bible is one of the three sacred relics used by St. Guy Anthony, the founder of our Eclipse Institute.”

It is a relic of a saint.

It was not much different from the Holy Armor of St. Germanicus displayed by Vice-Captain Jonathan.

But what is important is its symbolism.

Throughout the long history of the church, there have been relics belonging to saints.

It was kept in the Vatican and used whenever necessary.

The Bible of Saint Anthony is one of them, and the symbolism of this relic is one.

Candidate for the next head of the institution.

In other words, it is a symbol given to the powerful head of the heresy interrogation agency Eclipse.

‘Saint Anthony’s sword and censer have already been delivered to the two candidates for the next head of the institution.’

One of them is Iris, the Saint of Radiance. The position of head of Eclipse is so important that an adult is definitely the candidate.

And the last remaining relic of St. Guy Anthony was the Bible, which he offered to Ray.

‘Not only that, but Antonio’s relics all have powerful power.’

‘Furthermore, the symbolism of the candidate for the next head of the institution. Hehe, Archbishop Dunwell suggested both practicality and symbolism at once.’

‘What a cunning old man! What’s overheating? ‘I prepared for the biggest thing!’

At today’s priest ordination ceremony, the proposals made by the heads of the organizations were all completely unconventional.

It is a clear fact that no matter which organization Ray is assigned to, he will receive care and support from the head of the organization.

With everyone looking at him with envy and envy, the moment of choice came to Ray.

“I am······.”

***

The turmoil in the Free City of Campbell was calmed down by Iris, the Holy Virgin of Radiance, and the Knights of the Sun who came from the Church.

While the Knights of the Sun destroyed the demonics roaming the city and restored public order to the city, Iris chased down the culprit behind all of this.

“Kaaak!”

A flash of light under the night sky pierced Luca’s body.

But Luca couldn’t stop. This is because the bright light that cuts through the darkness and pours down like lightning still illuminates the world.

“Wow… such a monster! You’re not even tired!”

After the battle at Campbell, Luca fled without looking back.

Even though the plan had been prepared for several years and the demonics who had sacrificed tens of thousands of Campbell citizens were all thrown away as meat shields, they were nothing more than a handful of ashes in front of the Holy Virgin of Radiance.

At least the Alpha Demonic only gained a few hours against the saint. Even that would have been impossible without the sacrifice of dozens of Beta Demonics.

After that, it was an endless chase between Luca and Iris.

Luca turns into an insect and runs away, and Iris spreads her wings of light and chases a swarm of insects.

He has an unrivaled ability in the act of escape.

Considering that he can transform his body into an insect in the first place, it is close to impossible to chase Luca no matter how good he is at tracking.

However, even when Iris transformed into a nimble fly, she was faster than him, and when she transformed into a crawling bug, she chased Luca by burning all the ground in the area.

Quang!

Quaaang!

Now, whenever I see a bug, I shoot a bright light at it. It was serious damage to nature.

‘When I first got hit, something was engraved in me. I’m pursuing it based on that!’

What kind of power must it be? If we have time, we can solve it after analysis, but…

Kwaaang!

“Before that… I’ll die first!”

That is the saint of the church. I’ve heard rumors that it’s strong, but isn’t it really a monster?

Luca needed time to resolve what the saint had engraved on his body.

“Really! It’s such a huge loss! I can’t help it!”

I have no choice but to take out the assets I have prepared here and there just in case.

***

Iris, who reached the ‘border line’ after Luca, had no choice but to stop.

“······.”

A deep, deep entrance to somewhere.

Although only fragments of it were revealed on the ground, I was able to experience and intuit that this was part of some gigantic ruins.

“······Dungeon.”

An ancient trace that often suddenly reveals itself.

Due to its special characteristics, it is also a place used by the devil’s minions as a hideout.

‘I went in here.’

Iris was feeling the power of the authority engraved in Luca’s ‘soul’ from beyond the dungeon.

It is undoubtedly true that he escaped here.

You can enter like this, but there is nothing more foolish than entering a dungeon alone.

This is because all kinds of abnormal phenomena that have not yet been revealed appear in ancient ruins.

Therefore, dungeons require a ‘strategy’.

And above all…

“It’s a dungeon! Report it to the Commander right now!”

They chased the wizard in the border area, pouring out miracles of brilliance. The ‘reconnaissance team’ that was watching this discovered the dungeon just like Iris.

in other words.

“The empire will move.”

The most powerful country on the continent that is never friendly to the Catholic powers. They will dispatch troops to attack the dungeon. In that case, Iris has no choice but to use the same move.

【······!】

The light that appears in the air through Iris’s gesture. The Holy Spirit that belonged to her as a saint changed into the shape of a falcon soaring in the sky.

“Go to the Vatican and tell them. I have issued a summons.”

A convocation order, one of the powers of a saint.

The summons issued by Iris was quickly conveyed to the Solarion Church.
