I Can See Your Code - I Can See Your Code chapter 174

I see your code (174)

“That would be impossible.”

The pope answered firmly.

An attitude without hesitation as if it was not even worth thinking about.

Usually, when I hear a voice telling me to reschedule an important presentation, I ask why. First of all, you have to decide whether your opponent is crazy or not.

However, if not even that, the answer is only one. It’s not something you can change at your own will.

“Is it because the gods have ordained it?”

“… … I guess you even guessed that. After all, it’s a natural inference since it’s impossible for believers alone to decide on such a thing.”

The Pope shook his head as if he was convinced by himself and continued.

“That’s right. This agreement was not discussed among us Popes. Not long ago, Kitan, Nyx, Gaia, Hearton, and Defiti suddenly appeared. It is the result of an oracle given by the gods of the five major religions.”

“Did you also explain why you want to unite the five faiths?”

“You didn’t tell me, but… … Looking at the current situation, I have a guess.”

I’m guessing

It was still before the second part, so I don’t know the detailed emotions or reasoning of the people living at that time. I’m just guessing it must have been.

I was curious and asked.

“What is it?”

“It is a disaster.”

The pope put down the teacup he was holding and spoke.

“When the Argon incident occurred a while ago, I tried to dismiss it as an accident, but this time, a similar case occurred in our denomination as well. perhaps… … Isn’t that a harbinger of future problems, I think?”

“okay. It makes sense.”

It must have been a shock to the continent that had been living a peaceful life after the Empire Incident.

In any case, the Pope’s guess was not entirely wrong. Rather, it would be more correct to say that it was partially correct.

If only the Argon incident happened like the original, I don’t know if I would have thought that way.

I’m going to leave it to my imagination, but the Pope asked me if I had ever wondered.

“Besides, why do we have to delay the presentation? Also because of the checks of other kingdoms?”

“That’s right.”

When he responded calmly, the Pope smiled slightly.

“If that’s the case, don’t worry. No matter how abruptly agreed upon in the opinion of the gods, we are preparing various measures so that it can be handled without any problems as much as possible.”

It’s a problem because it doesn’t work.

After all, I realized that even if persuasion was possible, I couldn’t change it. All that’s left is to meet and talk with Kitan in person.

After receiving the reply that I would arrange a meeting with Kitan within a few days, I left.

It is said that people’s minds change quickly in the first place.

It seems like yesterday that I decided to eat only meat and be vegetarian for a while in the elf village, but after lying on the bed and eating only white porridge, I now crave meat.

I am a person who believes that eating what the body wants is good for mental health.

So, instead of resisting temptation, I went out right away and ordered meat dishes without any hesitation. After you get hurt, you have to take care of yourself.

Anyway, there were dozens of plates piled up like that. It has reached a level that has to be calculated in gold coins, even if it is measured in terms of the amount.

Considering that 1 gold is the average cost of living for a family of 4 per month, there is no way to say that it was really devastating. It was an expensive restaurant from the start.

Anyway, it wasn’t a burden at all for me now, as it might be a country from the time I came here recently. The burden just lifted my stomach.

It was the moment when I was about to pay the store owner without much thought.

“for awhile.”

Suddenly, a hand appeared out of nowhere and touched my shoulder.

I was already aware that someone was approaching, but I was a little surprised because I didn’t think I had anything to see.

When I glanced back, a priest with a good impression was smiling brightly.

“Just by any chance, the savior is right! nice to meet you My name is Pamelion.”

chameleon?

Whatever the name, the savior is one of my new nicknames this time around.

Did you know that I was one of the people who was in the president’s office?

I didn’t remember it at all, but it was a bit like ignoring what I had pretended to know. There was still a little bit of regret for the priests.

I apologized to the bewildered owner for a moment and turned around.

“Nice to see you too. But such a grand title is still too burdensome for me. Just call me Ryan.”

“Hahaha, you’re even flirting with humility. After all, I don’t think anyone gets the title of savior.”

It’s not humility, it’s really burdensome.

I didn’t want to argue about this, so I just moved on.

“Is there anything more important to me than that?”

“It’s not like that, I came for a meal, but I saw a familiar back, so I called him once. The sight of them fighting in the front was really impressive.”

“Oh, you are. Enjoy your meal.”

I was about to turn around again, answering, but the priest’s hand grabbed me once more.

“Wait a moment! Do you want to count now?”

“Yes, yes, but… … .”

“I can! You can’t pay the city benefactor for a meal! I’d like to give it to you, but would you mind?”

“no.”

He answered with a smirk and put his hand in his pocket, but this time too, the priest smiled kindly and blocked it.

“Excessive humility is poison. Please accept my favor just once.”

“I ate a little too much. No matter how favorable it is, the amount is a bit too large to be a burden.”

“Haha, what a burden! The priest’s salary is not that high, but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have enough money to buy a meal for the benefactor. Hey, how much is your meal?”

The owner, who was watching the two of us, answered the priest’s question carefully.

“that is… … All in all, it’s 2 gold.”

“What!”

The priest banged the nearby desk! hit it

“Are you trying to eat strangers on your back in front of the priest? How can a person eat two gold’s worth of food with one meal alone!”

“That, that… … .”

“Excuse me! At least I thought it wouldn’t happen in this city… … I must have misunderstood. It’s fair to see people like pigs, 2 gold.”

The priest pulled me away with an angry face and said.

“It’s done. Stop going. Even if you dared to save the city, you’d be ripped off by someone who wouldn’t have enough… … . This shop will report to the shrine and take action separately. It’s not something that the city can afford to leave it alone.”

“2 gold is correct.”

“Yes?”

“That means 2 gold is correct.”

“… … ?”

Even if I talked to him over and over again, the priest made an expression that did not understand him.

I finally sighed and pointed to the table where I was sitting. The plates were piled up as if the staff had not yet taken them out. The thick oil remains as it is.

“It’s all made up of expensive meat. I ate as much as I did by myself, so it’s worth 2 gold. It’s not really ripped off.”

“… … .”

The priest was speechless.

Unlike before, I understood, but it seems that I couldn’t accept it.

After all, 2 gold isn’t the amount you can pay for a single favor. No matter how grateful I am, there is a wall of reality.

In the first place, there were not many people carrying 2 gold as cash.

At that moment, the silent priest bowed his head and opened his mouth.

“… … I’m sorry. I said it curiously, but the truth is, I only have 50 silver now… … .”

It seemed so.

I said as he quickly pulled the money out of his pocket before he felt any more embarrassed.

“For me, the priest’s heart alone is enough. There will be another chance next time.”

“… … sorry.”

“It was nothing.”

I can count and go out now.

I was relieved to finally give the money to the owner, when I heard another voice behind me.

“for a moment!”

… … what else is this

I sighed and looked back, this time it was a gang of paladins. They bowed briefly to me and tapped the priest on the shoulder.

“Do not be sad. Now we are here.”

“Ahh… … Brother… … !”

“It’s a problem not only for family members but also for benefactors! How could we ignore it?”

I hope you ignore it and leave.

Regardless of my thoughts, they started to spit my meals out on their own. ‘Since there are five people, I can only pay 40 silver each hahaha.’ while doing.

Even worse, the restaurant owner later announced that he knew who I was and that he wouldn’t take any money.

In the end, it turned into a fight over whether to pay or not, and in the end, including the owner, it was agreed to pay 33 silver each.

Why is the seller paying the money? Doesn’t it go into your pocket anyway?

It was too warm an atmosphere to ask such a question. A sight that seems to be helping the needy.

It was strange. Obviously my fortune is several hundred times greater than theirs combined.

I know that the heart is more important than that, but… … To be honest, I think if I had worked at a higher level during the time I was arguing here, it would have cost me more than 2 gold.

And aside from all that, it was still not comfortable for the people of the temple to treat me like that.

Because I still think that I have played a part in this case.

Up until now, I thought it was because I was lying in a hospital bed and only heard about it.

What is this because of that.

I sighed and slidly intervened amongst the brothers and sisters.

“The meal was very good. Then I’ll just go and see.”

“Savior, where are you going?”

That title was also one of the reasons I wanted to go back soon.

He made excuses that he couldn’t hold on to because he didn’t think he would let him go easily.

“The wounds from that time haven’t healed yet, so it seems like they need treatment. I was forced to come out today as well.”

“That… … ! That’s right. Maybe we did something wrong… … .”

Just stop sending it.

“it’s okay. It’s not that I can’t even move.”

“Is that so… … .”

The priest mumbled that with a sad face, and then suddenly smiled brightly.

“Then I will tell my brothers about it. If you go outside, there will be no trouble.”

“Yes, thank you.”

For the first time, I feel like I’m having a conversation.

I said goodbye to them with a relieved look and then went straight back to my room. And I sat on the bed and thought. I’m going to stay quietly in the room until the business with Kitan is over.

Anyway, I had a feeling that this would not happen again if I got on the Suba as soon as I finished my business.

However.

“Salvation… … No, Rihanna. Here’s a visitation gift from a bishop… … .”

“Lian! Today the Archbishop is here!”

“Sir Francis came with a phoenix feather, and I don’t know what to do… … .”

This guy’s temple didn’t seem to be able to see me resting for even an hour.
