I Can See Your Code - I Can See Your Code chapter 165

I see your code (165)

… … What the hell is this?

I couldn’t understand the situation for a moment, so I stood there stupidly for a moment.

To be honest, after seeing Arina’s reaction, I think she’ll treat me better than I expected, I expected. If it had been bad, he wouldn’t have acted that way.

But that was after the event started, and I never imagined that the order of appearance would have changed. Because this was a very important issue in the Velia continent.

“One of the main characters of the day has appeared.”

The continuous cheers and applause stopped. The Pope stood up and said.

“Welcome. Holy one. This is your place.”

Then he points to the chair under him. right next to the cardinal. It is a position that means the second person in the temple.

“… … The seat next to the Cardinal?”

“No, it’s not enough to concede your turn, are you saying that you’re being treated like that?”

“This… … It’s not serious.”

Perhaps it was something that was discussed only between the leaders of the archbishop level or higher, and the priests at the bishop level or lower who gathered at the meeting showed a shocked expression on their faces.

Thanks to those reactions, I was able to come back to my sanity.

holy one.

It’s too blatant to say it’s just like a compliment. Usually, in this case, most people are called by the title attached to the person concerned.

In my case, it’s like ‘Supernova of Exiled Country’ or ‘Saint of Layton’ or something like that.

Holy knights or whatever, are you going to bring me to your side at all?

The problem is that I have enough value to attract them while doing it like that… … .

I shook my head inwardly.

Objectively, I’m not at a level where I can still be treated like that. Because that’s a courtesy about whether or not you should receive the remuneration of a country.

Is it also Arina’s breath?

After thinking for a while, he smiled.

I don’t know the exact reason, but it’s not a bad situation for me. If you come this far, it would be polite to accept it.

Forgetting his hesitation before, he confidently walked to the center of the venue. I could feel the eyes pouring from both sides staring at me through my skin.

There were vigilance and jealousy, but most of them are light of wonder.

I sat in the chair calmly, not paying attention to either side.

An applause burst out a little late, and the pope’s eyes widened as he looked at me. The cardinal, who was now my partner, looked back at me with a calm expression.

“Did you hear anything from the saint?”

“If you’re asking about the event, I’ve never heard of it.”

There was a ray of interest in the cardinal’s eyes.

“It’s pretty calm for that. Otherwise, it could have been a burdensome place.”

I ended up making a decision on that one word.

Also, he was the one who got caught.

With common sense, it is impossible to proceed with such an important event without a word from the person concerned.

It may have nothing to do with the cardinal that I have been treated like this, but it must have been his breath for not letting me know about it.

And I can easily guess why he did that.

In a small way, it was aimed at the backlash of the priests.

It hurts my pride for Kitan to entrust me with a mission, even though I am not a member of the temple. In the meantime, if I could see even if I was lacking, it goes without saying.

Still, this was resolved well thanks to calming down even in the middle. It probably wasn’t the primary goal in the first place.

Another one too… … It’s to maximize the effect of my own ‘presentation’ that I will do later.

But if my guess is correct, the cardinal made the wrong choice.

They already have their hands on it, and the maximizing effect is the same in the other way around.

I smiled and replied indifferently.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen something so grand, but I’ve been through similar experiences a few times so I’m used to it.”

“Hmm… … . It could be. Because you are the body that leads the big top.”

As if that was all he was curious about, the cardinal turned his gaze back to the front. I shrugged the same way he did and looked at the president.

Because there are no good guys.

It would have been unpleasant and disadvantageous for me to sit in a position equal to myself, but in the meantime, trying to use it to my advantage.

I thought it would go smoothly as the original story and I was relaxed, but I have to be a little nervous. Because it may have been prepared for something else.

Anyway, as I was talking to some of the archbishops below me, the priest at the entrance shouted again.

“Finally, today’s appointment ceremony will be held in the position of a saint who was born for the first time in hundreds of years!”

There were no cheers or applause this time.

Everyone just stared at the doorway without saying a word. And when the door is fully open. An unfamiliar sound of exclamation came from the chairman.

“Wow… … .”

There was no point in finding the location. Because it was not a voice that came out of one or two places.

It was a place where only priests were gathered, so I thought that it might not be too much, but honestly, it was worthy of that.

The appearance of Arina that was revealed through the gap in the door really seemed to fit the word that she was a saint.

“… … .”

You must have seen it in the dressing room, but why does it look so different now?

Maybe it’s because of the facial expression. It was because he had a cold face that was different from usual to see if he had ordered anything before.

I wonder if that alone can change the atmosphere that much, but… … You can’t deny what you see.

Anyway, one thing was certain.

It’s a strange feeling, as if you were someone else. I must say that it suddenly feels like something is far away.

I was watching Arina approaching one step at a time with a mysterious feeling of unknown identity, and suddenly she arrived in front of me.

The reserved seat of the saint is right next to the pope.

The moment I want to pass by like this and go backwards.

“Lian.”

He stopped and smiled small enough to be seen only by me. It was as if all the cold facial expressions from before were made up.

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you. I thought it would be better to inform you, but Cardinal-sama said that this was originally a surprise… … .”

Was it like that too? It wasn’t a problem because it was a fact I had guessed at first. He didn’t know the situation, so he wouldn’t have taken it too seriously.

I saw a face that was half sorry and half awkward.

The unfamiliar feelings from before disappeared in an instant. Someone seems to be saying, ‘You were the one who mistook me.’

I remembered what I said in the dressing room.

I felt a little uncomfortable, but seeing that I was wearing casual clothes, I was relieved immediately.

Wasn’t he in the same mood as I am now?

It means that we have become so used to each other that we feel unfamiliar if we are not the same. Just like how awkward it looks when you see a family who used to only wear sweatpants all of a sudden in suits.

To be honest, it wasn’t that bad.

I smiled and spoke quietly.

“It’s okay, so go ahead and sit down. I look at people.”

“What do you do when they look at you? I am a saint.”

The fact that I was trying hard to manage my facial expressions is a good thing.

After I urged Arina one more time, she went back to her seat and sat down. Soon after, the Pope gave his congratulatory remarks and the ceremony began.

As it was not originally a religion that gave particular importance to equality, the positions were thoroughly separated.

down to the bishop level. Above the Archbishop level.

Thanks to this, I was able to see the inside of the venue while eating food and drinks brought to me by some of the priests.

Let’s see.

Lilia, who was most worried, is more energetic than expected and is hanging out with the people around her. Even though the hat was tightly pressed.

Seriously, it’s not like he’s the type to be stuck without anyone he knows. I guess I was kind of worried.

I took my eyes off of it with peace of mind, but suddenly a guy passed by in my head.

The cardinal’s son I said. After a quick glance at the name… … Was it loincloth?

You probably felt the same way.

It wasn’t a very good relationship, and I didn’t have any special feelings, but I decided to look for it as soon as it came to mind. Because no one knew about it other than that.

Let’s chat and look around the venue for a while.

I couldn’t find him, even though I looked closely.

I guess he didn’t attend the appointment ceremony?

It’s kind of guesswork. Even if you’re like me, you don’t want to attend an event where a bad guy is the main character.

However, since it is an important event, I thought that I might show my face for a while.

I didn’t really think about it, I just thought it was.

There were many things I was more concerned about than that guy, and at the same time, the Pope was announcing the end of this boring ceremony.

“Because it was my first appointment ceremony, I must have been poorly prepared, but thank you all for enjoying it so well. But, as we all know, the most important formula is still there.”

Immediately, the soft sound of the music stopped. The people who were laughing haha ho ho also fixed their gazes forward.

The Pope looked around them and said calmly.

“It’s just a vote to see if the candidate is a saint.”

As they say, Arina hasn’t become a saint yet. I’m just a candidate until the appointment ceremony is successfully completed.

It is said that in order to be officially appointed, a majority vote of nine people at the Archbishop level or higher is required in addition to successfully performing a sacred mission.

However, as can be seen from the point that everyone has treated him as if he has already become a saint, it is actually only a formal procedure.

Because they have successfully completed the tasks their gods have chosen and entrusted to them, there is no reason to object.

There is something more important than that.

Behind the Pope, I looked at the crystal ball at the highest point of the venue.

It is a sacred item that expresses the will of the gods, and even if everyone agrees, if there is no light there, the game is over.

God said, ‘Oops, mistake.’ Should I accept that I did it?

Of course, even if it is true, there are very few cases where the light does not go out. Because the mere fact that God made a mistake can lower his authority to the bottom.

It must be the feeling of just waiting patiently for the end of my life and death in 4 or 50 years anyway.

Anyway, because it was the first appointment ceremony, many priests did not know about it. After explaining the rules to them, the Pope sat down and said:

“By the way, voting is a handshake. If there is anyone who thinks that the candidate is not suitable for a saint, please raise your hand right now.”

The priests below were already ready to applaud.

They must have noticed that it was a formal procedure too.

But it didn’t take long for a light of bewilderment to appear in their eyes.

“… … Cardinal Sylvester, what is the purpose of this now?”

“There is no intention, Pope.”

The cardinal replied with a calm face.

“It was just that I and the four archbishops had the same intentions.”

A total of five people raised their hands, including the cardinals.

More than half of the number opposed the appointment of the saint.

So far, as expected… … .

I looked at the crystal ball behind the Pope with trembling eyes.

There was no light in it, just darkness.
