Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

“Yes, that’s right…”

"If that's the case, then that's right... the host invites the guests, so the guests have to have time to attend the banquet, right?"

"I've already told you I don't have time... Why are you so stubborn... Hey, don't the people in the temple understand what I'm saying..."

Who is so stubborn! Drus twitched his lips. Wasn't this referring to herself?

"But this is the Pope's..."

Then before Druce could finish, Kato Megumi interrupted him again.

"What's wrong with the Pope? I am still a person favored by God... I also carry the oracle of God... Could it be that the Pope is more noble than me..."

“No… not really…”

"That's right!"

Kato Megumi interrupted him again.

"Since no one is nobler than anyone else, the meeting will naturally follow my schedule... It just so happens that I don't have time right now. You can tell your Pope that I will go see him when I have time..."

"Krina... Please send him out. I still have things to do. There's no need to say more about this..."

Kato Megumi said this and then left.

Interrupting others is a very comfortable feeling...

Speak your own words and leave others speechless?

……

……

Seeing Kato Megumi leaving, Drus subconsciously wanted to follow, but was stopped by Klina.

"Priest... please... His Majesty is busy now, so it's inconvenient for you to disturb him."

Looking at Clina who was blocking him, Drus's face darkened.

"Klina, do you still remember that you are a clergyman of the temple? If you remember... please get out of my way."

However, Krina did not listen to her and move aside, but replied with a smile.

"Of course, sir... I am still a member of the temple..."

"then you……"

"But I still remember that I am now His Majesty's guard. The Holy Scripture says... God is the supreme faith of the temple, and the Saint is God's spokesperson. Her words take precedence over the temple itself. Please understand..."

Klina refused to give up an inch of land, and Drus had no choice but to watch Kato Megumi leave...

Of course, he couldn't do it himself. If he did, there would be no turning back.

So he could only look at Klina deeply, then waved his sleeves and left angrily.

Watching Drus leave, Klina finally breathed a sigh of relief...

"Ha... finally left..."

Krina was startled when she suddenly heard Kato Megumi's voice.

"Your Majesty!? Didn't you leave because of something?"

Seeing Krina's frightened expression, Kato Megumi wrinkled her nose.

"Uh...I have something to do..."

As she spoke, she looked towards the bumpy lawn beside her.

"You mean... practicing magic?"

"Yes, otherwise..."

Kato Megumi blinked innocently.

"I was practicing peacefully, but someone suddenly came to interrupt me, so I had no choice but to interrupt..."

After hearing what Kato Megumi said, Krina felt embarrassed and touched her nose.

Come to think of it, the High Priest brought it himself.

However, Kato Megumi didn't care about this. Looking at the direction the other party left, she sighed softly.

Seeing the saint sighing, Klina couldn't help but ask,

"Your Majesty, are you worried about anything?"

"No...I just feel troubled..."

"Your Majesty, do you mean... that what you said before will cause His Holiness the Pope to blame you?"

"Well... that's not the case... Krina, don't forget that I am a person favored by God after all. Disrespecting God is a serious crime in your holy scriptures..."

"Ah! Yes, yes! Blasphemy and disrespect for God will result in imprisonment and expulsion from the temple if the offense is serious."

Krina was stunned for a moment, then answered.

"Well... that's it, so I don't need to be afraid..."

Kato Megumi smoothed the ends of her hair and said calmly.

"Hmm...By the way, Clina, you are from the Holy City, right?"

"Ah, yes... Your Majesty."

"Then do you know if His Holiness the Pope has had any conflicts with anyone recently..."

Krina didn't expect Kato Megumi to suddenly ask this, but she didn't ask more questions. Instead, she recalled it and then answered.

"Your Highness the Pope... it seems not... Oh, by the way, if we talk about conflicts, I don't know if this incident counts. Previously, the Archbishop of the Temple of the Supreme God, the Sword Saint, seemed to have publicly rebuked our Pope for a period of time."

"Hmm... then what exactly is it like..."

One is the Saint of the Temple of the Supreme God, and the other is the Pope of the Temple of Mother Earth. They seem to be very interesting.

"It seems that there seems to be a conflict between the scopes of the temples that His Holiness the Pope and the Sword Saint. The Sword Saint advocates natural development and does not develop the temple with a purpose. The only goal of the temple is to govern the people within its scope and protect their safety. However, His Holiness the Pope has a different philosophy. His Holiness the Pope believes that only by vigorously developing the temple, spreading it to every corner, and bringing all the people within his scope can he protect them more effectively."

"Moreover, the Earth Mother Goddess hasn't given down an oracle for a long time, and no new saints have been born. The number of believers in the temple seems to be decreasing year by year. Therefore, His Majesty the Pope and the King have vigorously promoted the development of the temple, which has led to some conflicts between the branch temples of the Earth Mother Goddess and the branch temples of the Supreme God, so..."

"So this is ah……"

Kato Megumi nodded.

"Hmm... I heard that the Sword Saint is favored by the Supreme God. Is that true?"

"It is true, Your Majesty..."

So, now the temple urgently needs a saint like me to show her influence? Tell everyone that the Earth Mother is still paying attention to her believers?

But on the other hand, the Pope did not want a rising saint to compete for his influence and prestige, so he sent someone like Drus to give him a warning. Was this to put himself at a disadvantage, control himself, and build himself into a mascot?

Kato Hui knew that not all saints in all temples had real power...

Haha... this is really troublesome...

Kato Megumi squeezed the staff in her hand and shook it.

"Forget it... Let's practice magic first..."

When the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Although I am afraid of trouble, I am not a timid person.

Originally, she had no desire for the temple, but if the other party continued to pester her, she would have no choice but to follow the example of the Sword Saint and become a powerful saint.

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 102 Chapter About the Choice of Partner

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Kato Megumi quickly learned all the basic magic. Of course, if she used these spells in actual combat, she would definitely not be able to compare with those experienced adventurers, so Kato Megumi had to use these spells through some actual combat to hone her proficiency and reaction.

Besides, the deadline for the commissioned mission has expired, and she should go to the Adventurer's Guild to see what kind of companions they are recruiting.

……

……

When they arrived at the Adventurer's Guild, the hall was still bustling with people coming and going. Because Kato Megumi weakened her presence, her arrival did not attract anyone's attention.

Speaking of the innate skill of presence, Fujie also studied it carefully during the past few days of learning magic, and finally figured out how to use it.

Presence is not invisibility, which is the ability to completely block vision and blend into the surroundings; rather, it is to reduce one's own presence so that others subconsciously ignore oneself and are unaware of one's existence.

Of course, Kato Megumi did not disappear because of this. She still exists in this world. Unlike her invisibility skill, she can still be seen by others.

After using her ability, Kato Megumi is like turning into an ordinary stone. There are so many stones in the world, who would pay attention to a small stone that can be seen everywhere on the roadside?

According to Miss Witch, she had never seen anyone who could utilize the sense of presence. If this ability were to develop, it would be a very powerful ability.

Of course, at this stage, she cannot make full use of this ability and can only barely make others ignore her.

But for her, this was more than enough. At least when she encountered someone she didn't want to see or something dangerous, she could use this ability to reduce her sense of presence and save herself from trouble and injury.

Slowly walking to the counter, looking at the counter lady who was in a daze for some reason, Kato Megumi tapped the counter lightly with her fingers.

dong dong——

As she knocked on the wooden counter, a crisp sound soon came out, waking up the counter lady who was in a daze.

"Hello, Miss at the counter, sorry to bother you..."

"Ah, it's you... Miss... Kato Megumi..."

The lady at the counter originally wanted to call out Kato Megumi's identity directly, but thinking of what Kato Megumi said last time, she changed her words halfway and called the other party directly by her name.

She nodded and smiled, and asked gently.

"You are the partner you recruited for the previous mission, right? Let me see... Please wait a moment."

The lady at the counter took out a stack of parchment scrolls from the side and began to flip through them skillfully. Unlike her dazed look just now, her whole temperament suddenly became capable, like a skilled female secretary, smart, capable, and familiar with the job.

With her familiar business skills, her own recruitment task was retrieved in less than half a minute. Of course, this was also because Kato Megumi's recruitment bounty task was not the kind of task that had been shelved for several months or years, so the search was very fast.

"Well, there are three teams in total who have accepted your recruitment bounty mission..."

"There is a standard team of three people, a warrior, a mage, and a priest. They are of average strength and often take on the task of escorting caravans. This time they took on your task because the caravan they are escorting happens to overlap with part of your route, so they took on this task. Their caravan will set off in three days. If you want to choose this team as your partner, you will have to wait three days before you can set off."

The lady at the counter took out several parchment scrolls, which contained the information of the team members. She turned over the parchment scrolls, showed the contents to Kato Megumi, pointed at the contents, and explained to her the information that could be made public about these people one by one.

"The only warrior in the team is also the captain of the team. He is at the Jade level. His strength is pretty good at the core level. The other two are slightly weaker, both at the Jade level. One is a priest, and the other is a magician."

The lady at the counter introduced Kato Megumi meticulously, and then she introduced the other two teams that took on the task.

"The other team also has three people. Their three professions are warrior, swordsman, and mage. They have all reached the bronze level badge and are quite powerful. Their missions are often to hunt high-end monsters deep in the forest. This time is no exception. They currently have three hunting missions, which only partially overlap with your route. Logically, they should not have accepted your mission."

"But when they accepted the mission, they emphasized that after completing the hunting mission, they can follow your route and go on adventures to protect you..."

The lady at the counter suddenly paused, then looked at Kato Megumi hesitantly.

"Logically speaking, given their abilities, they shouldn't care about your little reward, but strangely, they accepted your offer... So I guess they knew that this was a mission from you..."

"Hmm... is that so?"

Not only the counter lady felt strange, Kato Megumi herself also felt strange about this. Although her mission rewards were high, they were not worth mentioning for these slightly high-end adventurers.

His mission was a bounty recruitment mission, and the mission description only said to recruit some people as partners to accompany him on adventures and teach him how to survive and fight in the wild. After all, he was a complete layman in this area, so he urgently needed some experienced adventurers to teach him.

Moreover, he does not reject the missions from those adventurers who are his partners, because he can also use their missions to make himself grow. This is the reason why Kato Megumi issued the bounty mission.

So, these high-end adventurers might have other purposes in accepting my mission? Is it because of my status as a saint that they want to have a good relationship with me, or is there some other purpose?

Before Kato Hui could think about it, the lady at the counter gave the detailed information of the third team. The information of the third team was similar to that of the first team, except that their strength was slightly weaker. They were all steel-level adventurers...

"These are the three teams. Which team do you want to choose?"

Which team...

Well... Team 3 is definitely not an option. After all, I came to the guild to post a recruitment mission in order to learn from their team. Compared to those with weaker strength, adventurers with stronger strength can definitely learn more experience, and their own protection is also very safe.
