Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 105 Nani?!



"Lord Eris, have you never been to a temple before?"

The bishop's question caused Evan to look back on his memories and those of the original 'Evan'. Upon confirming that this body of his had never set foot into a temple as far as it could remember, he nodded in confirmation.

"I see, that's why."

She placed her cup down on the table before responding.

"Every church dedicated to the goddess Artemisia is kind of a holy territory belonging to her, as such, it is filled with her divine power.

The high concentration of divine power in the area thins out the magic in the area, which is why it appears that magic does not dwell here, even through your 'Magic' eyes."

Magic power was something that naturally dwelled in almost every area in Aidos, save for some certain circumstances like this situation of the temples and a few other Evan was not aware of.

"The goddesses' divine power, huh?"

Pride voiced out as she looked around the room with glowing eyes, nodding to herself before turning back to the bishop who continued speaking.

"Perhaps, Lord Eris, are you unable to sense divine power?"

"First off, just call me Evan. Secondly, is there a reason I should be able to?"

"Lor-, Evan, I believed you were able to do so. After all, your body is covered by a thin layer of divine power, or to be more precise, it is covered by a layer of divinity.

That was the reason I came over to the entrance, I had sensed the divine power on you and came over to see the source."

Evan's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing the bishop's words. He remembered being told the same thing months ago before he left the duke's mansion.

"Although it is mostly only the Archbishops and the pope who possess the goddesses' divinity due to the nature of their positions, it is also possible for other people to possess divinity even if they are not members of the church.

The Princess of the Empire I believe you are familiar with, is one of them. She is known to possess divinity that is leagues above the normal holy magic used my more than 95% of the church.

Said 'Holy magic' is just magic power that has been attributed, transforming it into what is known as holy magic."

The bishop carefully explained things to Evan, broadening his understanding of how holy magic and Divinity worked.

As for Eliza and Pride who were aware that the goddess had been the one to select Evan as a hero, him having divinity on him did not come as much of a surprise to them.

"On the topic of people other than the Archbishops and the pope possessing divinity, I am one of said people as my ability to wield divinity is what landed me my position of bishop and potential archbishop in the future."

As she spoke, she waved her hand and a layer of an unfamiliar golden energy coated her palm, something Evan recognized as divinity.

He then activated his appraisal skill on the bishop, intending on discovering more about this woman whose name he didn't even know.

'Wtf?! She's strong!'

Evan was most certainly not expecting to see someone with such stats, especially her high tier of magic.

She had achieved Tier 3 Magic, something that was only supposed to be possible when one was within at least a dozen levels of level 200.

Besides anomalies like Pride who had already passed such a stage in the past, a person with a level in the hundreds having tier 3 magic was unheard of.

However, Evan's greatest shock was not her level of magic or her unique 'Blessing series Skill', but her title.

'Vessel of the goddess?'

Before Evan could even think about what that meant, Amelie suddenly dropped her teacup on the table and turned to Evan before speaking.

"My apologies, I'm gonna have to time out for a bit."

"Huh?"

As Evan let out a voice of surprise, Amelie's eyes started glowing while releasing a golden light. Waves of divinity poured out of her body as a familiar notice board appeared in front of Evan.

[The 'Eternal of Time and Destruction' says this situation is too eye catching.]

The next moment, Evan's vision turned monochrome. He could not see colours of any kind except black and white, even Pride's red overcoat only looked black to him.

Another thing he noticed was that Pride and Eliza seemed to be in a weird state, not moving a muscle.

His thoughts were distracted when about a dozen golden 7-ringed magic circles appeared above Amelie's head while rotating counter clockwise.

A beam of light then shone down from the sky, piercing through the building and landing on the magic circles above her head.

**HUMMM!!!

There was a humming sound as Evan saw the illusion of a familiar white suit clad woman appearing before Amelie.

The next moment, the magic circles disappeared along with the golden light, and colour returned to the world.

The first to notice something wrong was Pride, she reflexively summoned her weapon and widened the distance between herself and 'Amelie' while glaring at the latter with glowing eyes.

[Hmm? Calm yourself, Demon of Pride. If I was hostile, you'd already be dead.]

'Amelie' spoke with a completely different voice than before, a voice Evan recognized all too well. Eliza also noticed the difference and warily rose her magic staff, but Evan's next words shocked the wariness out of her.

"Artemisia..."

"Huh?"

"Nani?!"

Evan called out the name of the person he believed was currently inhabiting Amelie's body, Pride and Eliza let out shocked voices in response. Following that, was a reply, confirming his conjecture.

[Nice to see you again Evan.]

"Oh, it definitely isn't nice to see you again. Not even a little bit."

Seeing Evan's reply to her, the goddess Artemisia who was in Amelie's body heaved a sigh of exasperation as she thought about how annoying this conversation was going to turn out.

Year 1051

[Evan...]

"What is the problem? Goddess who decided to forsake the hero she sent to this world when he needed her the most.

No wonder the 'demonic hand' decided to worship the demons, if they kept getting abandoned like this, then its only natural they'd change sides."

Artemisia sighed for the nth time today as she attempted to speak once more but was interrupted by Evan before she could even get a word out.

[T-]

"What was that? Sorry, couldn't hear you over the sound of all these betrayals everywhere."

[Tsk...he told me you'd be like this. I should have just sent a proxy.]

"Would you look at that, she's already planning how she's gonna abandon me next time."

Artemisia face palmed as she turned to the two girls seated on the couch on her left and asked.

[Any suggestions on how to deal with his bullshit?]

Sadly, she was unable to get an answer as the two were too busy being stunned by the fact that Artemisia, the goddess of Aidos, and its chief deity, descended personally because of Evan.

This was a bit too much information to take in all at once and they two didn't know how to do so.

The more experienced Pride recovered pretty easily but was still surprised to an extent, Eliza on the other hand, was just staring at Artemisia's golden eyes with a gaping mouth.

*SNAP!

Artemisia snapped her finger and a golden ring of light appeared around Eliza's head briefly before disappearing.

"Huh?"

[Good, you're back to normal. So how do you deal with this idiot beside me?]

Artemisia tossed a question towards Eliza who turned her gaze to Evan and then back to Artemisia before shaking her head in denial.

[Quite Sad....]

Artemisia remarked in response before turning to Evan who was weirdly silent. The moment she looked over, he resumed ranting some nonsense about betrayals and whatnot.

However, while Evan was ranting like an idiot, it was honestly so he could give himself a bit of time to think about some things, evidenced by the fact he occasionally got lost in his thoughts and turned silent.

Sadly, Artemisia's next actions snapped him out of said thoughts as she casually dipped her hand into Evan's shadow and pulled out a familiar black cat that he hadn't seen in a while.

"Kuro!!"

Pride and Eliza directed their gazes at the cat and saw that he looked no different than usual, however, being the cat's pseudo contractor Evan could feel that Kuro was anything but alright.

As for Artemisia, she narrowed her golden eyes in displeasure upon seeing the state of the shadow spirit.
