Chapter 39 (Bonus)
….
[A few minutes later]
"Paying 10 billion compliments just to meet this God ..." A voice as calm as the ocean currents said. "Don't you think that's too much, Archbishop? Not only that, you didn't even tell us why you wanted to meet this God." It was Enel, who had no behavioral relationship with his anime counterpart.
Currently, they were being taken to the Upper-yard using an auto-boat on the Milky-road.
Just a few minutes ago, they had paid 10 Billion Extols (1Billion bellies) to obtain a coupon that could be used to legally meet Gods, he said, although Coins forgot to mention that Amon was not present in anxiety.
"Take it easy, High Priest Enel." A feminine voice that was calmer than her answer. "Don't forget I'm the Arch-Priestess here, not you."
"..." - ".Enel simply fell silent with a smile, as if not caring about his words.
Although his internal state could not be said to be the same. 'ARRRGH! WHY! Why did that idiot old bastard choose this little girl as an Arch-Priestess?! Why not me!' His hand shook slightly, as he thought of strangling the girl from behind. But he quickly disposed of these thoughts. 'Let's calm down. he will definitely realize it with his Spell level.'
4 Months ago, the highest priest in Birka, the High Priest, died. But before he died, the old man had chosen a 17-year-old little girl as his next Arch-Priestess, in which Enel, a person who had been a priest in its entirety for 20 years, was to be the next, and a high priest for 9 years was not chosen. .
Enel quietly gritted his teeth. 'That old bastard ..he adopted me when I killed my parents and made me a priest. I lived the way he wanted for 20 years. Ugh, I should have killed him myself!' While he was thinking this, the outsider only saw a calm smile on his face.
Enel was a man who was abused by his parents in his childhood. It is ironic how such people exist even in such religious races, however, they do exist because Enel is a perfect example of that. This is where his hatred of God and ambition to be himself were born.
As he recalled this, his mind disappeared again. 'That fruit, I hate it. My bastard parents only did what they did because I once told them how the fruit tasted... I'm a fucking kid!' Enel's parents were very religious, so when they heard something like that about their God spoken by their son, they clearly sided with their God and punished him harshly… The punishment is not just once.
'One day I'll eat it whole. The seed of the Lightning God tree? I'll show you, God! I'll eat that thing and make you pay for my last days!' Enel thought as she felt her breathing become heavy.
But soon he calmed down. 'However, only the Arch-Priest could enter the church hall that held the fruit. It was also stored inside a special type of locker that could only be opened with a sword in its hand it was.' Enel thought as he looked down at the hand of the Arch-Priestess who was wearing a golden sword. 'I will kill him one day and take the fruit.... Ha ha! One day!'
While he was thinking this, Yona, the Archbishop, could feel his thoughts to some extent. She ... was very nervous and scared. He never thought he would be chosen as the next Arch-Priestess, and when he was chosen, he discovered how his life was in danger. '...Let's just calm down. The human mind will change one day.Priest Enel will also learn to control herself.'
….
Soon after, 6 Birkan reached the right eye of the upper courtyard, the Golden City which was 70% had been repaired, and people were still working on it even at this moment...
It is like a heavenly sight for priests, for their mouths are open.
"Is this the kingdom of God?" Yona asked herself as she had her eyes wide open reflecting the sparkling golden city.
Likewise, all the priests were shocked, however, Enel was the most affected.
Looking at the glowing city in front of him, his face had a closing smile. 'S-Very beautiful ....' Enel's heart was beating faster than ever. 'What is this stuff? This is mine! I WANT THIS-'
*Saturst!*
"!!!"
Suddenly, he felt the tip of the sword touch his throat.
"Priest Enel, you let greed take over you." It was Yona, the Arch-Priestess who had drawn her sword and held it near Enel's throat. "Don't forget we're here as honored guests. I'll punish you severely if this is Birka!"
*Clap! Clap it!* "!!"
Suddenly, they heard the sound of applause from a little higher than their position.
"Yes my. You guys are so impressive. Internal conflict? Well, good for you, I guess." It was a little girl with long black hair, who jumped from the middle of the Giant Jack after finishing this line.
*buy!* A small crater was created in the ground.
"Showing that kind of emotion to our home? You'd be dead if the redhead hadn't stopped you, long-eared monkey bastard." Raki said to Enel.
He had his hand on his sword as his eyes glittered for a few seconds.
"!!!!" All Birkan was shocked and took a step back as they felt his emotions with their Spells. Moreover, Enel who almost peed in her pants.
«...*...»
Soon after, Duy arrived there after feeling a clash of emotions with his own Spell. Currently, he had the most advanced Observation Haki after Amon.
Seeing the priests, especially Yona, he immediately embraced her.
"Haha! I never thought you'd visit us, little girl!" Duy said as he patted the Arch-Priestess on the back. He was quite familiar with it, as he had spent about half a year in Birka before. From there, he knew the girl was as pure as the cherry blossoms that helped them a lot. "Disregard Raki, he's a bit messed up when Amon isn't around. You can talk to me." Duy said while cancelling his embrace.
"HI!" "H-hey!"
Enel and Raki shouted at the same time. The reason they are so different. Raki frowned and looked at Enel, while she looked at Duy with eyes full of anger.
He was humiliated by a little girl just now... He is the High Priest! Although the little girl also seemed to be someone with the same status as the high priest position, in the end, it was a little girl! And now, this silly looking man...
"You touched Arch-Priestess." He said calmly, with his eyes forming a glare. He was a little afraid of the girl, but he knew the girl was weak with her spell. 'A group of idiots! How dare they!'
It was then that Duy noticed that the other priests were already preparing for battle. Although Enel was not satisfied with Yona being an Arch-Priestess, she still did not want some strange people to disrespect her, and also used this opportunity to humiliate the Human in front of her.
"Do you realize how disrespectful-!!!!"
*SHA!*
His words were cut off, as the spear scratched his cheek and passed by. He could have avoided it at the last moment. *suggests*
"Well, you're not dead." Wyper is about 400 meters away from them.
*fwoosh!*
And the next second, he came in front of them, seemingly using [Soru]. He copied this technique from Amon, as he had seen it used thousands of times before. As someone who called himself a rival of Amon even after he became a God, he never lazed around. Although his technique was technically the same, he liked to call it [Heavenly Steps]!
Wyper stared at Enel, whose eyes doubled in size with a grin. "Heh, do you think the six of you are strong enough to fight us? Who do you think we are? HAHAHA!"
"ENSELS!"
Enel is about to attack, but is stopped by Yona's call.
'The whore.. I did this for you.' Enel glared at him with her pronounced veins, but soon disappeared.
"I'm..." He closed his eyes and took a breath. "I'm sorry for acting like this, Archbishop." Enel bowed lightly, as other priests did the same.
….
Soon after that Duy also apologized because he did not realize his previous mistake. Both sides became calm, although they could still feel the emotions in each other's hearts.
Now, Duy was sitting at the table across from Yona, while Wyper and Raki were behind him, with the priests standing behind the redhead. There were also many new Shandians and God Militias who glanced at them out of fear, still working and repairing the ruins.
"So, disregarding the previous action, let's talk about what purpose you came here for," Duy said like a professional. Since the chieftain was stationed at the Gates of Heaven, Duy was the one who arranged many things when Amon was not around.
"We came here for-" Enel opened her mouth, but Yona touched her hand which signaled her to stop.
"Once again I'm sorry" said Yona. "Actually, we came here to meet the top courtyard God. That's because of the news we got about .. her wings." He said as Wyper frowned, but Raki smirked internally, he had already been told about some small details by Amon.
"Oh, that. Yeah, I guess that's an interesting curiosity Birkan people... When I was there, I heard about the legend." replied Duy. "However, did you not know that Am-err, the God went to the Blue Sea 6 months ago?"
"..." - ".As she said this, Yona blinked and looked at the face of her interlocutor. Immediately his expression froze and his eyes trembled. "Ah, I-we were not informed of this ..." He said with a trembling and nervous voice. "You know, the news is very slow in the Sky, and because Gods rarely come out... So. we..." He subconsciously looked down at the ground.
"...Sorry guys."
Yona's hands trembled while Enel looked at her with a sharp gaze. "You didn't even ask the people outside! You wasted 10 billion xtol! This is really blasphemy!"
His body trembled at his words, as nervousness took hold of his heart. 'I was too nervous and excited... Also, who ever thought a winged person would go to the blue sea?' He thinks.
Raki could see small drops of tears forming in his eyes. Yona has been acting as Arch-Priestess for only 2 months, she is still 17 years old.He is always unsure in doing things, yet he displays a confident look to not let down his subordinates. Now everything is a mess. '10 billion is a lot... If I achieve what I want, the money will not be wasted in the slightest. B-but that guy isn't even here.'
As he started to get nervous, the other priests looked at him in disappointment, especially Enel who was glaring at his back. While Duy, Wyper, and Raki only looked at each other.
"Um," Duy caught their attention. "Since you've already used the money, we won't be able to return it, because you should also know it's a bad sign." He said when the priests remained silent. It was a well-known belief in the sky, even in Birka and Shandia, asking for something you gave not long ago is a bad sign that will hurt both sides.
Seeing them, Duy decided to make his bid. "How about this, because the Arch-Priestess, Yona, helped us a lot on our trip in Birka, and most importantly, because you are honored guests, I'll make it so next time you don't have to pay. How-to? that voice?"
Both Raki and Wyper frowned upon hearing that. However, they decided to release him. They had already deceived many others like this, so they could let go once. Mostly because it can damage their reputation if they do the opposite, because Birkan is a powerful and influential force.
"No!" Enel interrupted, he was fed up with this little girl's game. "We need them back now, we don't care about your bad omens. Our people need money too."
As he spoke trash, Raki slowly began to unsheathe sword, but Duy stopped him. "Stop Raki..."
However, it was too late because one of the Priests, Satori, had run towards Wyper. "Has!" Although Wyper did not care, as he was also preparing for battle.
A small fight broke out, as the two sides were finally able to stop each other. Yona apologizes and accepts the offer, then leaves with the others.
Eventually, both sides calmed down as they returned to their headquarters.
«…*…»
["And then, they left after a small clash. Oh, oh, I also hurt Enel's arm. If I wanted to, I'd cut off his arm!"]
Amon hears the recording sent by Raki on his [Tone Dial], with the dial close to his ear because it is difficult to hear due to the surrounding ocean currents.
["The redhead is good on Duy... Also a little cute. Anyway, seeing that idiot Wyper almost revealed that you'd be back 2 years later. I stopped him because they might use your absence as a fact and attack us. They, you might return at any time, but you will definitely return before the 2 year mark."].
Amon smiled when he heard this. "Good, he's getting smarter."
["E-uh! Recorder time's up! All right, see you, brother." It sounded!]
'...Probably not.'
[Tone Dial] long distance had sent the footage of Raki to Amon who was in the blue sea. The range of the [Tone Dial] is not good enough to serve as a Phone so far, although fortunately it can still be used as a recorder. Skypiean and Bob engineers are working to create a tower on top of the Giant Jack that will soon allow...
Every day, Raki sends out a few words about what happened that day. And today, he had sent important things that had happened for so long that even his recording time had run out.
Amon smiled as he stopped Dial. He had predicted this before. He also knew Enel was a high priest at this time because the Shandian spies had gathered detailed information about Birka. In fact, Amon has a 110% guess as to why the girl is here.
'However, things might change after Enel sees the sparkling city. Hmm, but even in that case, there is a 0 chance of him getting fruit before 1515. (this is 1512). Hmm, I should provide more rubber suits in the sky.' Amon considered sending rubber and a rubber suit with the help of a knock-up flow. He had done so before, and his products had also reached the skies as confirmed by Chief.
*Fhx!*
Immediately, a picture came out of the [Portable Fax Dial] as he stared at it intensely. In addition to the 4 Priests and Enel who still had wings, Amon saw Yona, the red-haired Archpriest. This photo was taken during the meeting.
"Hmm, I need to be more careful. But the girl's arrival was also part of the plan." Amon said as he placed the button and photo on the small bag by his side.
Then cracking his neck, he looked down at the sea and grinned.
"It's time to hunt more pirates."
Right now, he was flying over the sea. Flying on a pirate ship.
"I heard they have a total bounty of 469 million." Licking his lips, Amon slid down.
*fwooh!*

A/N: Amon has all the things planned and ALL the knowledge about Birka. Even the past through AI. Underestimating his knowledge was not a good sign for anyone, let alone a trash boss like Enel.
