Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 1124: Prophecy (2)

I turned to look at the statue with a surprised look the moment that I heard this.

I didn't know what expressions the others had, but I did hear one thing.

"Thud."

There was this sound as if there was something that dropped to the floor after this voice spoke.

I didn't even need to turn around to guess what happened.

However, there were others that needed clarification still.

"Saintess, what are you doing?" One of the popes asked in a confused voice.

The one who asked this was one of the ones that wasn't in charge of a large religion, so there were things that he didn't know. As for the others that were in charge of larger religions, they naturally knew why Saintess Irene was acting this way.

It was just that they wanted confirmation still.

"Don't you know whose voice that is? It's the voice of her Lady Solista!" Saintess Irene didn't even raise her head as she said this, she continued bowing her head on the ground like that.

The way that she said this was almost as if she was urging them to come to their senses and act the same way as her.

"Thud!"

There was another sound that rang out before more similar sounds followed.

Out of the corner of my eyes, I could see that it was the pope of the Solista Religion who fell to his knees first before the others followed.

Even if they weren't followers of the Solista Religion, that didn't mean that they weren't going to respect Solista. She was still a god after all and one of the main gods of this world.

As men and women that were in high places in the religious world, it was only natural that they would be respectful to a god.

I could even hear the sounds of praying coming from behind me that made a trace of bitterness fill me.

It seemed that there really was no changing the religious types.

After saying those first words, the statue had been silent as if the connection had been lost. But then...

"Sorry for calling you out here, but there was something that I wanted to tell you before you left. I can only contact you here because the connection to the divine realm is strongest here."

The moment that Solista said this, the praying suddenly stopped.

There were shocked looks that appeared on everyone's faces when they heard this, except for mine since I already knew that she had called me out. After all, it was because of the message that she sent me that I came here in the first place.

"Oh, they finally stopped praying. It really was getting a bit annoying with all the noise that they made, but I guess that I don't have to say anything now."

The religious people of the Holy Empire were even more shocked, but also they had bitter smiles on their faces when they heard this.

Being told by their god that their praying was annoying...

This was certainly a kind of experience that none of them had encountered before and they couldn't say that it was the kind of experience that they wanted.

It was just that the other side was a god, so it wasn't as if they could say anything in response.

I knew what they were feeling, but I didn't want to speak up for them either.

A part of me was annoyed with them too for how they had persisted in trying to bring me to the Holy Empire. At the same time, I was a bit annoyed at how they had used me as a walking battery for their holy relics.

I also didn't want to turn around and look at them since I could feel a passionate gaze coming from behind me.

Even without turning back, I knew who this gaze came from.

None of them were fools, so they knew exactly who Solista was talking about. Especially the one that had been in the room with me when the Crown of Wisdom and the Mark of God lit up, so she could guess everything that happened.

After a moment of silence, I gave an awkward cough before saying, "Your excellency Solista, is there anything that you need from me that you've summoned me to this place?"

I wanted to get rid of the awkward mood in the air, but who would have thought that these words would just make things worse.

"Eh? Why are you talking like that? Is there a need for you to be this formal with me? I thought we were closer than that." Solista's voice rang out once more from the statue to the shock of everyone that was here.

It was especially shocking to the religious people of the Holy Empire.

After all, they never thought that one of the gods would actually speak in such a manner to a human.

Even though he was a human that possessed the Mark of God, he was still a human in the end. For a god to treat a human like this...

It really put them in a situation where they didn't know how to react at all.

It also put me in an awkward situation since I never thought that Solista would do something

like this.

I knew that this was her way of helping, but it really wasn't helping at all.

Even if gods ruled over humans, it wasn't as if the gods could understand what it was like to be a human.

As such, it was hard for Solista to understand the relationship between humans. With an internal sigh, I said, "Solista, is there a reason why you called me here?"

At this point, there was nothing that I could say to fix the situation.

So the best move was to end this matter as soon as possible by seeing what she wanted and then sending her off.

While it might make some of the religious people of the Holy Empire a bit unhappy, it was

better than the alternative.

"I have a prophecy for you."

That was Solista's response.
