Chapter 79: Hyde Goes to Barakhan’s Theological College! # 1
"This is my first time going to Barakhan!"
Psyche's face brightened a little.
The atmosphere of the Agarpe estate, which had been gloomy due to the death of the old greedy Parmas, rose up like a flower in full bloom.
"Barakhan is a shit city."
Milione clicked his tongue.
The mood was more sombre than when Parmas ended his life in an ugly way.
"Article… Chase you! Milione! You can't use such harsh language in our couple's bedroom!"
Psyche was a brave woman who knew how to protest against injustice.
At her Psyche's protest, Milione shrugged her shoulders and slyly said, "I was just telling the truth."
Milione guy.
I don't know why you keep interfering with Psyche and me, leaving me alone in my own room.
I have never been to the capital Barakhan either.
"Millie, have you ever been to Barakhan?"
"It was about once with my dad. That was when my eldest brother, Alter, turned 18 and was appointed a knight with a gold plate. It was a disgusting place."
It was Milione who was pretending to vomit.
Psyche trembled when she heard those words.
"I heard that Saint Barakhan is a city where the savior's deeds are intact. I heard that the walls and cathedral that the Lord walked on are still there! Such a disgusting place… !"
Is this exactly the expression on a person's face when they hear the truth about the travel destination they were looking forward to?
If you go on a trip to Paris expecting to see a beautiful city with the Eiffel Tower, but find out that it is a place full of all kinds of unkindness and racism, this is exactly the face you will make.
However, it was necessary to listen to Milione's words on the contrary.
Milione is a vicious, evil, dirty, criminal-like girl.
Those guys tend to hate and stay away from sacred and godly things─.
In other words, the fact that Milione disliked it meant that Saint Barakán was a wonderful place.
"I'm also very excited about what kind of place it will be."
If Royal Road, the royal capital, was the center of the secular world, Saint Barakhan was like the center of the spiritual and religious world.
So to speak, it could be considered a holy place.
Jerusalem of 2 billion Christians.
Yes, it would be nice to think of it as just such a position.
Soon Milione, who was sitting on the chair, crossed his legs and frowned.
"Hyde, are you looking forward to going to Barakhan too? "I thought you were a person who was not interested in pilgrimages and holy places?"
That was correct.
I actually wasn't a fan of pilgrimage or the word 'holy land' itself.
It's sacred land.
Where is that?
The land was a slave to humans, the lord of all creation—no, it was something that humans had to rule over and manage.
Because God created the world and gave humans the authority to manage and govern it all.
Do you worship such land as sacred?
Honestly, it's absurd.
The same was true for pilgrimage to holy places.
Will I be saved if I leave for the Holy Land?
You're welcome!
"Pilgrimage is not simply a journey to that land. The journey of salvation itself from being born as a human being to heaven is a pilgrimage."
In other words, I did not believe in pilgrimage or 'holy places.'
I don't even think positively about it.
Psyche's eyes lit up as if she was moved by my opinion.
"That's right! "Hyde, listening to you talk, I feel ashamed that I have romanticized this journey too much!"
As expected, Psyche was a woman I recognized.
It's quicker to admit mistakes and accept what's right!
In comparison, Milione was a mean bitch.
Milione pouts and adds another word.
"Hyde, from what you say, it seems like you are also looking forward to going to Barakhan? That package. Isn't the luggage too much and too big? "What did you pack a lot of?"
Are you looking forward to me going to Barakhan?
Where did you get such nonsense from?
"Millie, don't say nonsense."
I scolded Millie.
Then Psyche asked.
"Hyde, are you okay with us going to Barakhan?"
"No. That's not necessarily true."
Actually, I was also quite looking forward to the road to Barakhan. It wasn't because the place was called by the grand name of a holy place.
I'm just going on a trip abroad.
As a true believer, you should not place much significance on 'Jerusalem,' which is just a piece of land—.
It's natural to want to go there and see and experience things for yourself.
Soon Milione spoke.
"What. So, you did what I said, right? Why did you say you had no expectations when I told you?"
"That's right, Millie. "Because it came from your own mouth."
I wasn't very excited about the Barakhan journey with Millie.
Rather, I was worried.
I get dizzy when I think about what kind of accident this guy got into and how I can fix it.
It's to the point where I'm trying hard to figure out if I can just throw it away in Barakhan instead of trying to fix it.
Milione's older brother, Alter, is working there, so should I leave it to Alter?
No.
Even the expression "Entrust it to you" Was strange.
In the first place, Milione's family was an altercation.
It's him who's responsible for being pushed, not me!
Anyway!
The journey with Psyche was more exciting than the journey with Millie.
No matter what, the city is called a 'holy land'.
There will be a lot to see and a lot of religious pilgrims.
So to speak, Psyche and I were now truly on our honeymoon.
A pious couple on their honeymoon in Jerusalem.
How wonderful is this?

"Wouldn't Sister Midnar go with us?"
When you have finished preparing for the journey.
I asked Sister Midnar again.
Sister Midnar was packing her belongings in her own way, and next to her, Lucy was also diligently stuffing her clothes and soap into her small bag.
Sister Midnar said.
"I don't think it would be a good idea to take Lucy to Barakhan. As I said before, I plan to take Lucy to the Ivory Tower of Royal Road soon."
When we left for the Holy Land of Barakhan, Sister Lucy and Midnar said they were planning to head to the Ivory Tower located on the Royal Road in the King's City.
Lucy is the illegitimate daughter of Pope Gregory.
A girl whose very existence is not acknowledged.
She knew what would happen if she took such a woman to Barakhan where Pope Gregory was present.
There will be a lot of problems.
"Lucy, I'm going to miss you!"
Zech─.
Psyche held Lucy in her arms.
The embrace of two beautiful women had the effect of touching a person's heart in itself.
Some even joke that the Lord created the world because he wanted to show people this sight.
Soon Lucy had tears in her eyes.
"Psyche, thank you so much! I, Lucy Emma, will never forget the grace I received from Psyche! And Milione too!"
Warak-.
It was Lucy embracing Milione.
Of course, Milione was disgusted.
"You crazy bitch! "Get away from me!"
Milione, you naughty bitch!
How can they be so vicious and cruel even during breakups?
This was because I was hit as a child and never grew out of it.
Look at Proverbs 13:24.
"To sparing the rod is to hate your children. Isn't there a phrase that says, "Parents who truly love their children discipline them faithfully?"
If you truly cared for your children, it was right to discipline them by hitting them with a cane.
If you raise a child without hitting her, go on a rampage like Milione and hit her like crazy.
And then, if you die and go to hell, is that really right?
If you truly love someone, you must stop them from going to hell, even if it means taking a beating.
"Milione! Milione is a good person too!"
"… Get out!"
Look at that.
Milione, you naughty bitch!
Of course, Lucy was a brave person and did not care much about Milione getting angry or swearing at her.
Lucy now looked at me.
"Hyde! It was great to meet you! I got a lot of help from Hyde! I will learn and train in the ivory tower and do my best to become Hyde's second wife! Because I like Hyde!"
"Hey, look at that crazy bitch! I knew I would do that! How dare you say it so proudly, as if you weren't even ashamed to say that you were becoming his second wife! "A girl must be modest!"
Milione was astonished.
It's probably because I take Lucy's words too seriously.
However, I was rather shocked by Milione's use of the word 'modesty'.
Does Milione really know the meaning of the word 'chastity' and use it?
Of course, I didn't say those thoughts out loud and spoke lightly.
"Miss Lucy, I look forward to the day when we can meet again."
Lucy still seemed like a fresh-faced girl even though some time had passed since she left the island.
But─.
Looking at the wide world from the royal road, Lucy's perspective will broaden, and her experience will increase.
Then she will realize that what she was feeling was a love that easily volatilizes.
"Lucy, stop it and let's go. "I have to take a boat that leaves in the afternoon."
Lucy gasped at Midnar's small shout and her body trembled.
She looked at us again as if she was truly regretful, and then tears welled up in her sea-deep emerald eyes.
"Me! The past few days with you guys have been the most enjoyable and fun of my life! Let's meet again! Please! Don't forget me! Be sure to see you again later!"
Bungbung-.
With tears in her eyes, Lucy waved her arms and got into her carriage carrying her large bag.
Lucy stuck her head out the window of her carriage.
"Hello!"
This is-.
Tap, tap, tap.
Finally, the carriage departed.
Lucy continued to wave her hand outside her window, and only when she was out of sight beyond the hill did Psyche wipe her eyes with her handkerchief.
"I think I felt more attached to it than I thought. I really thought of them as real sisters. Will Miss Lucy be able to get along well in the royal capital's ivory tower?"
"I guess so."
Lucy was a stronger woman than I thought.
Trauma from childhood.
A closed island and cult-like nuns.
Unlucky growing environment.
Instead of being defeated by that, it bloomed proudly like a wild flower on the asphalt.
"When we meet again, you will have grown even bigger."
"Hyde, what will you do if Miss Lucy still likes you when you meet again?"
What if Lucy still likes me when we meet again?
In many ways, I had no choice but to think seriously.
In fact, I am a more pious and faithful man than anyone else─.
He was the best groom.
No matter how many other men Lucy sees in the capital, the largest city in the world, she will never find a man as great as me.
Soon Psyche spoke.
"As for Miss Lucy, I think she can be my second wife. I think she could get along well with me. In the Bible, wives are often sisters or live like sisters, right?"
The story was that if it were Lucy, Psyche would also be able to get along like her sister.
The story of Psyche warmed my heart because it was common in the Bible for a first wife to fight with her second wife.
Psyche is good, after all!
However, Milione, Satan's minion, frowned.
"What. What are you talking about? I think Lucy would be able to get along well. It seems like you are comparing yourself to someone? I shouldn't be a second wife—what are you talking about?"
Milione this guy─.
I always hear stories like this in a crooked way.
It's really the devil himself who is encouraging the strife.
"Joy! I also didn't want to be Hyde's second wife! I, too, have received a marriage proposal from a count or duke! Know? What a body! "If only it wasn't Rust!"
It was like that.
The rumor that Milione was raped by Rust quickly spread along with Rust's notoriety.
In addition to the fact that Archbishop Archibald was demoted, Milione's marriage talks ended.
Even if there are, there are only strange ones.
In fact, strictly speaking, it was self-employed.
Rust never raped you, Milione!
Of course, such a story cannot be said in front of Psyche.
I said while carrying my bag.
"Then, let's leave too."
