I Can See Your Code - I Can See Your Code chapter 175
I see your code (175)
“Please tell me to turn it all off with the authority of a saint.”
“You know that’s a ridiculous request, right?”
“Now that you said it, there is nothing that can’t be done.”
Arina grinned at my disgusting words.
“No matter how much a saint remarks, no generation will be able to stop Rihanna’s visit to the hospital. You seem to be more popular than me.”
“Don’t joke. Because it’s real.”
“I’m not joking, so it sounds real. Alright, let’s eat this.”
Then he handed over an over-cut apple. It looks like a rabbit you see often in dramas. It was the first time I actually saw it.
Did something like this happen here? He grabbed a fork and took a bite.
One of the few good things about coming to this world is that the fruits are tastier than the earth. The rich juice immediately filled his mouth.
It would have been better if it wasn’t for receiving this as a visitation gift.
“How many apples do you have left?”
“I counted about a hundred and then gave up. Still, there are more than twice as many left.”
If it were that number, I would have given up. Just looking at it makes me feel nauseous.
“… … Let’s give some to the priests.”
“The apology was given by the priests?”
“Then give it to the paladins.”
“Well… … . Then, shall we give the meat the paladins gave us to the priests?”
“That’s it. I’ll probably eat it all in three days. You and Lilia will be there, so it will be enough.”
“Okay, then.”
Arina immediately nodded and started packing the apples one by one. Maybe he did it so he wouldn’t feel like giving back what he gave.
I mean, he’s pretty meticulous about that. I’m the type of person who would have grown up not eating at all.
Anyway, I was just passing everything that came to me, so I carefully watched how it was packaged. Wrap it in paper, put the ribbon up and pull it down.
great. learned
Originally, I was relatively shy, but after coming here, I used to imitate what I saw for the first time. I don’t know if it’s because of the body talent or the superhuman trait.
It didn’t take long for the two of us to pack the apples, which were piled up in a pile, as they were both done quickly.
After 10 minutes, the pile of apples had turned into a pile of packaged apples.
What I am conveying is… … Leave it to Arina. I don’t know what else to give you if I go out.
Besides, the apology I received directly from the saint. There is no such thing as an honor for the priests. Arina also manages her image to commemorate her inauguration.
After I decided to do that, I stopped paying attention to that issue. Other than that, there were a lot of things to deal with.
From retrieving the documents sent by the head of the Sang-Ho meeting from where he heard the news, to the final inspection of the questions to ask when meeting with Kitan soon. A lot of administrative work remained.
square square.
The sound of apple slicing and writing overlapped and filled the room. Arina just moved without a word, and I also quietly scratched the pen.
Then, in the midst of it, Arina suddenly spit out.
“Lian did nothing wrong.”
“… … What does that mean?”
I frowned a little because it was so out of context. However, Arina continued speaking while looking down as if she didn’t care at all about my reaction.
“It happened this time. I know Rihanna is feeling guilty.”
“guilty? why me? I did nothing wrong.”
“So. You know me so well, I don’t know why.”
“What evidence do I have for feeling guilty?”
“Well… … I do not know. Are you saying that you talk a lot more than you do now?”
“… … .”
I kept my mouth shut. I felt like I wanted to say something, but to refute is to admit it.
Arina looked at me silently, and set her chin down on the plate.
“There are other things besides that. It’s a funeral. It’s like putting on a suit right away that you wouldn’t wear even if you said you could just go, even if you died, or you gave money to the families of the deceased without any reason even if you went there.”
“… … Those are the basic things we keep when we go to a funeral.”
“Isn’t that a bit too much for that? If it was Rian-sama’s original personality, he would have compromised with black casual clothes.”
“… … .”
Again, I couldn’t answer. To be honest, that’s how I felt when I looked at it.
No matter how much money I have these days, I have never used it like water out of mere sympathy.
The reason they built an orphanage in Layton or donated money to the vigilantes was because the purpose of the company was to stabilize the city they would establish, and it was calculated that they could recover it all later. It can be seen as a kind of investment.
But, obviously, there was nothing like that in this subsidy.
On the surface, I was a staunch outsider who got caught up in my work and deserved to be rewarded. It’s not about comforting your opponent.
In a nutshell, it sounds like the oba was a bit harsh.
“I don’t think it’s because I couldn’t protect others because of Rihanna’s personality.”
Arina started speaking again, holding the transition.
“Maybe he thinks it’s him that the cardinal’s son did what he did, right?”
“… … .”
“Looks right.”
“… … because you don’t know what Originally, this would be… … .”
“It wouldn’t have happened? What about the future that Rihanna knows?”
tuk.
I lost my pen for a moment.
As she straightened her expression and looked to the side, Arina shrugged her shoulders.
“What are you so surprised about? While I was walking around with a tea that I knew so much about. I don’t know if it’s a prophecy or something, but probably everyone around Rian-sama is aware of it, right?”
“… … Is that so?”
I quickly calmed my mind and lifted the pen again.
I was surprised because it came out so suddenly, because it wasn’t something I didn’t expect.
He didn’t even try to hide it in the first place. Rather, it was closer to the attitude that it doesn’t matter whether you know it or not.
“Well, anyway, you are right. If it was the way it was, the disaster would never have awakened. I didn’t expect it to be that strong. To be honest, it’s hard to see that I’m not responsible.”
“Lian.”
Arina put the transition back once more and looked straight at me.
“Lian is not a god. No, now that I am a saint, I can assure you. Even rookie Kitan-sama can’t do everything as he pleases. But what the hell is Rihanna trying to do to take responsibility for everything like that?”
“… … .”
“It’s good to reflect and regret, but it means don’t go overboard. I can see everyone suffering while pretending not to be. Every time I get a gift for visiting, I shut my mouth like someone who did something wrong, but I just have to be able to see it from the side.”
I didn’t answer, and for a while only a squeak filled the room. It wasn’t an overlapping sound like before, it was just an excessive sound.
so after a while.
I smiled softly and turned my gaze to the paperwork.
“Thank you.”
“Thank you, I’m fine. Don’t just talk to me.”
“Think about that.”
Arina shrugged and concentrated on slicing the apples again. I also concentrated on making fun of the pen again.
The pen and the excessive square sound, which I had never felt before, somehow felt relieved this time.

After that, nothing really changed.
As I normally did, I released my property to compensate the victims of this incident, and I received a thank you note.
If that’s changed, does it mean that I don’t feel much emotion when I hear a word of thanks now? There was no feeling that he was uncomfortable or hesitant, he was just casual.
That alone was satisfying.
Before that, I actually had several nightmares. The content was unusually not being criticized, but people looking at me with eyes of emotion.
Why is the dream I normally like so painful for me? It certainly wasn’t normal.
Anyway, now I am standing in front of the reception room after taking a holy water bath. What makes it a little unusual is that it is a room for receiving gods, not human guests.
To be sure, it is not common for the denomination to do so, and the priests are running around and preparing for this and that.
The ingredients that go into it are also plentiful.
Even after counting the relics that cannot read the code, there are more than five S-grade items. Consumables are also included, so it must be a ritual that can easily pass thousands of gold even in terms of the amount.
After all, if meeting God had been so easy, the title of Pope to convey God’s will would not have been necessary in the first place.
“Aren’t you nervous?”
As I was gazing at the scene, someone approached me and talked to me. I turned around and it was the Pope.
He smiled kindly and opened his mouth.
“I had only met Kitan-sama in person once, when I became the Pope. Even that was so brief, I honestly didn’t have anything to brag about.”
“Am I that short too?”
“You will be longer than that. As I said back then, I added some ingredients to extend the time. In the last 100 years, I think I will be the person I have met for the longest.”
“That’s a good thing.”
After that, when asked for a specific time, the answer was that he was not sure.
It’s because the time that God feels is different from that of humans.
I talked about it in a difficult way for nothing, but it is said that the flow of time between the new world and the human world is different.
10 minutes there could be 1 hour here, or 1 hour there could be 10 minutes here, and so on.
It was just a confirmation of what I was expecting, so I didn’t inquire deeply. Anyway, it’s not like there’s a difference between months and years.
When I met Kitan-nim, I was roughly answering questions such as what would I ask, if there was anything else I expected, and how about trying to assume an apostleship at this time, and then a priest came closer to me.
“Everything is ready. Would you like to interview me right now?”
After that, the Pope looked at me.
“If you haven’t finished preparing your mind yet, please tell me. I can wait for you.”
“You don’t have to. Let’s get started right away.”
“If it is your will, then do it.”
As the Pope pointed out, I entered the Five Mangseong Fortress in the center of the room. At the top was the Pope, and at the other vertices were the Archbishops.
Hundreds of priests standing behind them sang hymns without meaning, and endlessly memorized the doctrine inside.
how long has it been like that
Whew.
A wind suddenly blew into the room without a window, and the five-story castle lit up. And at the same time, all the priests who were singing the hymn were exhausted and collapsed.
“… … Everything we can do is over.”
The Pope also said as if he could barely stand it, sweating all over his body.
“When you meet Kitan-sama, please say hello on my behalf.”
Yes, I didn’t even have time to answer.
