2nd Round Villain

88 – – 100, a boy who will become a great sage in the distant future – 2

“Double personality? Did I hear you right now?”

[Yes, you heard me right. I will be a double personality.]

“ha… I never really thought about it.”

Kwak-.

My mind became complicated and the hand holding the rosary became stronger. Perhaps because the power was too strong, a moaning sound came from beyond the rosary.

[Yes… .]

“Uh… sorry, are you okay? I was frustrated at the moment, so I gave it too much power.”

[Oh, it’s okay. Rather, my body feels comfortable as if I received a massage after a long time.]

“What is a massage? It must have felt like my whole body was being crushed.”

I hurriedly released the power in my hands. The saintess’ moaning stopped then.

The rosary is a tool for communication, but also an object that shares the saintess’ full body senses. To add a bit of exaggeration, it means that she is no different from the little Saint Mary.

How painful it must have been to hold such a rosary with all my strength, swept away by the emotion of the moment.

It must have been quite painful, as a painful moan escaped from the mouth of the saintess who had endured for hundreds of years in the pain of both her wrists being pierced.

“I don’t understand.”

[What do you mean?]

“Was the saintess’ 500 years just decoration? It’s been 500 years, but it’s only half the time to keep the memory? Is that right?”

He said in a slightly annoyed tone. The saintess answered in a gentle voice, as always.

[You are mistaken.]

“Are you mistaken?”

[My 500 years in the spirit world are a price, including the right to communicate with Joker through the rosary here. If I had given up on this, I would have become a complete regressor.]

“It was stupid. I’m the type of person who gets stuck with something once I see it through to the end. There’s no way my feelings for the saintess will become dull in just 500 years.”

For a mere human saint, five hundred years would be enough time for a person’s heart to change dozens of times, but not me. That 500 years, to me, is a tiny amount of time.

[I don’t think so.]

“what?”

He bluntly questioned the assertion he heard. The saintess clearly expressed her thoughts.

[Why don’t you know that this time with Joker itself is a blessing from the Lord?]

“You’re together, are you trying to play puns with me?”

[Even though the body has been separated for some reason, the souls are facing each other and talking like this, aren’t they? I believe that the soul is more important than the unborn body.]

“… .”

It is also an ability to make dog noises carefully. What’s even more absurd is that the human being called the saintess is sincere in that voice.

[It wasn’t just for Joker, it was a useful and enjoyable time for me as well. The last 400 years.]

“How can you spend 20 minutes a day conversing with me after being stuck in pitch-black darkness every day?”

[Happiness and pleasure depend on making up your mind. It may have been an infinitely boring time for some, but for me, it was a precious time to build up my mind.]

“Who can’t speak? 200 years ago, when I delayed communication for several hours, the saintess was completely messed up. I still can’t forget the voice that received my communication while panting?”

He giggled and whispered teasingly. Until now, the events of the day had been buried implicitly, but I never thought I would mention them again like this.

[Isn’t that what happened that day, Joker-sama, not me?]

“huh? What does that mean?”

[Because it happened because you made me into a body that would be impatient without the Joker’s communication, and you were late on your own. Who is really responsible?]

“… That’s right, I heard and it’s my fault.”

I’m just taking it for granted that I’m communicating. Well, that’s not wrong.

“But will you be okay? What about the saintess’ dream?”

[Is it a dream?]

“He said he wanted to live with me in the academy. Sweet and thrilling love… Didn’t you want something like that?”

[You have to yield to the young and innocent me. It’s not worth it. After all, it is the same that it is ‘that’ Maria. The Lord said that knowing how to yield one’s most precious thing is a true virtue.]

It was a saintly answer. No, not all saints live by reflecting on the doctrine of the Lord like that, so should I say this is a Mary-like answer?

“But the saintess is always jealous.”

[…] yes?]

“Am I wrong? He always asks what happened to the girls in our party and gets jealous. You just said that yielding is the greatest virtue, can’t I?”

[Joker, isn’t that a slightly different problem?]

“What is different? Even if the young saintess is fine, are you saying you won’t allow other people? Hmm, that makes sense. I understand.”

[Joker doesn’t know much about women… .]

The saintess who was dumbfounded as if she had nothing to say. The corners of his lips rose naturally.

[…] And, it doesn’t mean you can’t enter the academy just because it’s night.]

“huh?”

[Rather, the academy in the middle of the night, where no one’s gaze exists… Wouldn’t it be the most suitable place for a tryst?]

“What are you talking about? Students should stay in the dormitory at night. Students are said to be incapable of leaving the dormitory.”

[It’s not that you can’t go out, it’s that you don’t go out. I was a student who had never broken a school rule in my previous life… In this life, wouldn’t it be okay to commit a little ‘deviation’? It’s not like it’s hurting anyone.]

This time, on the contrary, I was dumbfounded. The saintess exclaimed ‘huhu-‘ as if she was satisfied.

I think I saw the saintess as too watery. She’s just naive, but not innocent.

“what… We don’t have much time, so let’s stop talking about the distant future. What will happen today… Did I tell you last time?”

[Yes, I heard that a warrior party is coming.]

“As I said beforehand, I am not saving them. As in history, I will leave you to die according to the law of the jungle.”

[I know. The will of the Lord who lives and lives, I myself oppose Joker-nim forcibly twisting that providence.]

“But if there is a weak person in front of the saintess, she will save it.”

[It seems ambiguous. The Dragon King didn’t attack first, because the party of warriors attacked first. But it’s not that the warriors’ party wants meaningless killing, isn’t it difficult to distinguish between good and evil?]

A normal human would, of course, consider subjugating the beasts right, but a human being called a saint would not do that. She firmly believes that all life is a creature of the Lord, and treats even mere monsters with kindness.

It’s been like that since the first time I met you. The saintess embraced me with love and embrace. that inspired me

“But, still.”

[yes.]

“Just because you’re a saint doesn’t mean you equate witches and humans. Same with other animals.”

[That’s right.]

“Do you eat meat? Isn’t eating other creatures taboo? A monster is not different from other creatures such as cows, chickens, and pigs. rather more evil. As stipulated in the doctrine. After all, shouldn’t we admit that humans, at the top of the continental food chain, are superior to any other species? I am not human.”

[This is correct. Every life continues its life by eating other life, and that is also the will of the Lord. I just think the ideal is to live with a grateful heart for the lives that are used for daily bread. but… .]

“but?”

The saintess had a moment of silence before continuing. It seems like you’re trying to be careful with what you say.

It’s not a very long phone call, but I think that’s better than mindlessly spitting out words.

[With demons in my heart, how can I define demons as evil and have such an arrogant heart?]

“… .”

The saintess adores me. According to the church’s law, a nun who worships God forbids fellowship with any member of the opposite s*x, but she loves me passionately enough to break even that law. It may be a minor deviation for some, but it is a huge change for a saintess who has never broken the law in her life.

but i’m a demon If you are a member of the church, of course you should kill the demons as soon as you encounter them. That ridiculous contradiction is what puts the saintess in trouble.

[Some lowly beings, good and evil coexist in their hearts. As an apostle of the Lord, I was entrusted with the vocation to nurture that good heart. Some slander that monsters are unconditional evil and are the minions of evil that must be exterminated, but I have already seen many examples of monsters with good in their hearts.]

“For example, what?”

[Duke Lilith, the Duke of the West, felt remorse and did not treat the citizens of the Western Continent harshly after I let him go without a scratch. Oscar Lucifer, Duke of the North, who was criticized by everyone in the world as a devil, but in fact had a caring heart for others. And there are naive goblin metas who often hear the news through Joker’s shoes.]

I didn’t expect that the saintess would mention even meta. It reminds me of Meta, who innocently laughed and shouted that he had destroyed a colony of skeletons during the day and made them all his familiars. Hey Holy Lady, that’s not it. He’s just a little devil.

[Anyway, today is the day the warrior party comes.]

“Yeah, I’m going to make it flow as much as possible in the original history.”

[I wish Joker good luck in his future. I wish you all the best in everything you want. and… .]

“and?”

[i love you. Today, I really wanted to tell you first.]

“Foot!”

What is that. not a kid What does it matter who speaks first? you’re childish

It’s disgusting to put things in order with something like that. Next time, I must say first. It seems that the saintess loves me more than I love the saintess. Hurting Siri.

“Yes, I love you too.”

pop-.

The communication was disconnected just before the communication time was up. It was a useful conversation today. I also knew that the saintess of the future would be a different existence day and night.

Now I have to go back to my group. Because the warrior party is coming. In case someone in our party runs into a party of warriors, and history gets twisted… .

rustle-.

My head immediately turned to the sound of the bushes and leaves shaking. It was because he was so focused on communicating with the saintess that he was not paying attention to his surroundings. I didn’t think that my party would come along.

The size of the ki is small, but the density is strong. It means a strong man with a dwarf body. damn who is it? It wouldn’t be Nioh, it would be either Beatrice or Aruna Uriel. It’s okay if it’s Aru, but it can’t be Uriel, right? It would be quite difficult if the angel found out that he had gone against time.

“uh? person? Are you human?”

However, contrary to my guess, what I heard was the voice of a young boy. Head turned a little more. Only then, a creature invisible to the eye came into view.

A thick magic robe, a wizard’s hat pressed down enough to cover his ears, round glasses large enough to cover his entire face, and green hair sticking out from under the hat.

– Even if I can’t kill you… ! I will definitely hold on to the ankle! Big Bang!

It’s quite different from the image engraved in my memory, but I can’t recognize it.

Great sage, Merlin Gregory.

In my previous life, it was an unexpected encounter with a human who poured 9th circle magic on me and made me tremble in seizures until I was about to die.
