Meetings with the Lord
When Kazura was taking stomach medicine at Havel’s mansion, Isaac was in the middle of meeting with Nelson at his office in Nelson’s residence.
Usually, Nelson would hold documents of unrelated matters and read it, while he heard Isaac’s report. Nelson would question as necessary while doing his own work at the same time, then he would decide on the matter that Isaac reported. This had happened for a long time, however, this time the situation was a little bit different.
「……Isaac, say it again? Who has appeared?」(Nelson)
Previously Isaac entered the room and relieved the civil officials from the room because he wanted to report something, however, the content of that report made Nelson raise his face in doubt and asked Isaac to explain it again.
He was in contrast to Isaac who, although receiving the end of Nelson’s questioning gaze, was completely unperturbed. With a serious expression, he repeated the words that he had spoken before.
「It is Greysior-sama. Greysior-sama appeared in Grisea Village.」(Isaac)
Isaac replied with these words, and silence descended on the room.
Both of them didn’t make any sound or moving a muscle.
Only the shadows of these two people from the candle’s light were swinging idly at the wall.
「……Ah, um, what? So you mean “that” Greysior-sama, who appeared in the legend, the God of benevolence and good harvest? So you mean a God actually appeared in flesh?」(Nelson)
Nelson thought that Isaac was saying a joke, however with that serious expression it didn’t look like he was joking.
Furthermore, Isaac wasn’t a guy who would make a joke like this.
「That is true. The matter about how water flowed in village’s water channel and how the village didn’t get devastated by famine, was all because Greysior-sama lend his hand to save Grisea Village.」(Isaac)
「Speak concretely, what in the world really happened in Grisea Village? Do you mean it was like in the legend, Greysior-sama brought not only food?」(Nelson)
「Yes, about 1 month ago, Greysior-sama appeared in Grisea Village, and gave assistance in the form of large amount of food to the village. Furthermore, to supply water to the village’s fields that was ruined by the drought, he bestowed the village with a tool to draw water from low ground to high ground that was called a waterwheel. In addition, he continuously supported the village, from giving his divine blessings to the crops of the village so they grew rapidly, and conferred to the village knowledge and numerous tools that we never seen before.」(Isaac)
「…….」(Nelson)
As soon as he entered the room, Isaac suddenly began telling an unbelievable story and this made Nelson confused.
Greysior appeared, and saved a village on the brink of famine?
Even now he resided in the village and continues to confer tools or knowledge to the villagers?
……He completely couldn’t believe it.
There were many stories mentioned that Gods had descended into the world in the past, but to say that this completely mythical-like occurrence happened in this time and age, was something that couldn’t be believed at all.
By the way, the rapid growth of the crops due to Greysior’s divine blessings was Isaac’s own original interpretation.
He had received the explanation from Valin, the village chief, that the crops had rapid growth after mixing forest’s soil into the field, but since Greysior appeared it couldn’t be helped if he thought like that.
「This is an extremely amazing story, however I can’t believe it all of a sudden. Did you personally saw Greysior-sama in Grisea Village?」(Nelson)
「Yes, actually, I had met with him, and talked to him…… However, I have done so many disrespectful things towards Greysior-sama…… However, because Greysior-sama has forgiven me, even if I want to repent for it, I couldn’t do it……」(Isaac)
Maybe because he remembered when he met with Kazura, Isaac’s countenance clouded and turned sad as he casted his head down.
As for Nelson, he was still casting his doubt over Isaac who claimed to meet with Greysior.
Isaac hung his head down for a few moments, and then he raised his face and stiffen his expression.
「Nelson-sama, I would like you to meet him at the first thing in the morning tomorrow.」(Isaac)
「……Hey, you don’t mean, the person that you want me to meet is……」(Nelson)
「Yes, it’s Greysior-sama.」(Isaac)
Nelson spontaneously wanted to say, 「Is this a joke?」, however, after he saw that Isaac was deadly serious, he retracted the words back.
Even until now his sense of reality hasn’t returned, but if what Isaac said is indeed the truth then it would be very important.
However, although he was curious about the numerous acts of kindness from Greysior that Isaac mentioned before, what kind of purpose a personal meeting with Greysior would have?
「However, even if you say the first thing in the morning, even if we depart right now for Grisea Village, we wouldn’t make it in time. If Greysior-sama came himself to Isteria then the story would be differe-……
