Faith Life of a Former Scammer

011. Surprisingly delicious!

After watching the fearful chores, an unexpected reaction broke out.

“her. It tastes better than you think.”

At the words of the high priest that it was delicious.

“Is that true? I am not so easily fooled.”

Priest Runda opened her eyes slightly as if she would not be fooled.

“No, it’s not just delicious. Try it. The Count should try it too. This is a delicacy.”

He even recommended it to the count.

Even if he didn’t know Priest Runda, inviting him to the count meant that it was really delicious.

‘Only those who have tasted it know that taste.’

Unlike vegetables and fruit, meat was not damaged or rotten.

It was difficult for spoiled meat to return to its original state.

“This! It tastes similar to aged meat.”

“Is there such a thing as aged meat?”

“It is high-quality meat produced in the northern provinces. I never thought I would see this taste here.”

aged meat. That was the correct answer.

If you use Heal on spoiled meat, the bad ones will disappear and they will become aged.

‘This is something that has no choice but to be gold.’

If production requires a complicated process, the price naturally increases.

“I wondered why Priest Leone called me, and now I know the reason.”

“Rion.”

At the Count’s words, the High Priest called out to Leon as if it were real.

But to say so here would be foolish.

“Yes?”

“Do you have any other intentions for calling the Count?”

“… … I do not know. Originally, I was going to attend only the High Priestess and Priest Runda, but strangely, I wanted to attend them together.”

That Leon felt strange.

It means that God intended it.

“I see. You just followed the path God has guided you again.”

A child who follows the path made by God.

The only child who sees the way.

“It was only possible because of the permission of the High Priestess and Priest Runda to do whatever you want.”

“I am so glad you are with us. God loves us so much.”

“Our Lion is the blessing of the Church. High Priestess, I’m not calling you a fortune for nothing!”

It was a bad idea to show Leon’s intelligence here.

Showing that you are connected to God is the best choice.

“Priest Leon, thank you for calling me here.”

The Count also took a serious attitude.

“Oh, no. I just wanted to repay my gratitude.”

“I came here and saw many miracles, but I think the greatest miracle was meeting Priest Leone.”

Not faith in God, but faith in Leon.

‘That’s why it’s better.’

Non-Cult supporter of Leon. It will be a strong supporter in the future.

“If the High Priestess permits it, can you entrust me with the distribution of these meats and vegetables?”

“Are you talking to the Count?”

“Since it is a high-quality ingredient, it would be much better to sell it through the nobles rather than the general merchant guild.”

Priest Runda naturally intervened in the sudden business talk.

“Count, the moment Leon called you, it was already decided by God. Rather, we wish you well.”

Priest Runda reluctantly agreed.

‘If he hadn’t stayed in the real church, he’d be a nobleman who would have succeeded wherever he went.’

Priest Runda was not normal.

The Church of Dawn had no other choice. Thinking about it will only hurt each other.

The best option here is to happily agree. Priest Runda chose the best move.

‘Even though I induced it, I didn’t know it would end up in one shot like this.’

Thanks to that, everything went according to Leon’s plan.

Afterwards, a short conversation took place between the Count and Priest Runda.

“How about talking in detail after this meeting? I want you to speak slowly.”

“good. Can I step aside for a moment?”

Priest Runda shook his head.

“no. It’s because I have something to say to Leon for a moment.”

A smile appeared on the count’s face at those words. There was only one thing to say to Leon right now.

“I will wait for you.”

“Thank you for your consideration.”

if you got the mission.

“Rion, you worked hard. You perfectly fulfilled my request. I thought it would be good if you solved even one thing, but you solved almost all of them.”

You must complete the mission.

A notification window began to appear in front of Leon.

So, the Ministry of Finance practice was over.

* * *

‘The old man must have been quite nice.’

I wanted to come out quickly to check the notification window.

Priest Runda’s praise continued without knowing the end.

“Our Leone is the best! I just don’t need all the other priests!”

“I hope the insectivores look just like you!”

“Rion, come and see! Let’s hug him just once!”

“High Priestess, why are you stopping me? They said they would like our Leon. Please let go!”

It was to the extent that the High Priest himself stopped Priest Runda.

‘Anyway, thanks to you, I was judged like this. Is it a gain?’

Leon looked at the notification window.

[Mission: Assistance to Ministry of Finance]

[Perfect Mission Clear]

[It has performed above the standard.]

A ‘perfect’ judgment that he had received only once before returning.

‘Crazy, crazy!’

The reason Leon was so excited was because of the reward.

As for the secondary missions, only skills came out, but it was a little different when it was judged as ‘perfect’.

‘Can I be this lucky?’

A good reward was waiting for Leon to worry about.

When I flipped the notification window, a new notification window appeared.

[Increase the reward.]

[A special skill is created.]

One good skill is much more helpful than ten job skills.

‘really?! really?!’

Leon stared through the notification window.

[The unselected ‘Inherent Ability: Training’ changes to a skill.]

[Skill: Training is created.]

[Skill: You have learned training.]

Because of its versatility, training of unique abilities that I unfortunately had to give up.

That ability turned into a skill.

‘To think I’ve already acquired a unique ability level skill.’

Of course, it was not as powerful as the original ability, and it was a skill that could not be enhanced.

Still, I didn’t say ‘unique ability level’ for nothing.

‘There are infinite ways to use it.’

In addition, there were many ways to use training without being particularly strengthened.

‘Do you think we can proceed to the next step?’

The next step was postponed because it was decided that it still needed time.

This skill will serve as a stepping stone.

‘I’ll have to try it on my kids first.’

Leone smiled and headed to the dormitory.

Fresh young people to experiment with training were waiting in the dormitory.

That evening, music was heard in the dormitory playground.

A few days passed like that.

* * *

The winds of change blew through the church.

The count returned to his estate, and food materials for treatment practice poured into the church.

“Do you practice treatment with this?”

“Is this even possible?”

“Is it okay to do such a disrespectful thing?”

“I heard that the High Priestess ordered it directly?”

Everyone had doubts, but when I actually used it, it was nothing different from a homunculus for treatment.

In addition, since you can practice treatment to your heart’s content, favorable reviews have begun to be heard.

“As expected, the high priest has plans.”

“Isn’t it really cool? Even the Church of the Earth couldn’t practice so freely, right?”

“nice. I admit it.”

This change did not end here.

“Five! Meat today!”

“Doesn’t the real meat taste amazing?!”

“What used to come out once a week now comes out every day!”

Apprentice Combat Priests also benefited from the change.

A high-calorie diet was essential for those who were growing up and using their bodies.

It was only one practice textbook that changed, and with that, the whole church was changing.

Among them, there was a place that was evolving beyond change.

“Seniors, are you having a hard time?”

“It’s hard! I think I’m going to die!”

“Then why don’t you heal?! If it’s hard, I exercise while healing!”

“aa!”

Thanks to the early end of the Ministry of Finance practice, the remaining time was replaced by self-training.

After being trained, Leone went into ‘bulking up’.

“We squeeze the body to its limit, heal and return right away! What are you doing! I don’t play around pretending to heal!”

“Ouch! sorry!”

repetition of exercise and healing.

In the past, there have been ‘bullshit’ saying that bodies healed with divine power do not grow.

‘That’s nonsense.’

If you recover after overworking your body, you will grow. There was no way that this basic principle would not stop growing if divine power intervened.

‘You have to work hard to achieve results.’

It’s ignorant bullshit of the body faction.

‘To put it bluntly, they are magic medicine, they are medicinal herbs, they ate a lot. Does that work and does this not work? There is no bullshit like this.’

The proof was in front of Leon’s eyes.

“oooh!”

Philip boasts a tremendously muscular body. His already muscular body grew even bigger.

“Sal, save me!”

“I’m not saying it’s hard! When did I say kill you? why? Can’t you?”

“no! You can!”

“I will watch.”

Charles does all the tough things. Contrary to his appearance, the muscles were firmly attached to his body.

“Two hundred and eighty seconds. treatment afterwards. Perfect.”

Even Ed, who was a brain wave, changed into a body closer to a combat priest than a healing priest.

Upright faith dwells in a healthy mind.

It was a movement that started for this reason, but the real purpose was different.

‘I grow my body and use healing in real time. It’s hard to die, so it’s a perfect plan that can even raise your faith!’

It was simply because all training was possible at once.

“The muscle attached to your body is faith! This is the muscle that I endured and won with faith!”

“I believe it!”

There was nothing else that made me feel growth as much as my body. Thanks to this, the children’s motivation has also risen steadily.

“Oh, clothes! muscle! I believe!”

“Good for research. less tired Muscles are not bad.”

“Cheup. my faith is great great! I believe!”

Thanks to that, it was Leon who was sucking the honey.

‘I never thought a fairy tale would have this effect.’

To ‘assimilate’ with pain was not just to feel pain.

The real body was affected by it.

Pain could be ignored through autosuggestion, so there was no risk.

‘I never thought my body would get better even if I only had my hands on my back.’

His muscles grew even more when he harassed the children and taught them.

‘As expected, the priest is the best. Being a swordsman or a magician, you have to practice hard to make them fall out, but to say that they become stronger just by being told to do so. This is the priest!’

It was a life that even regressed, but there was no need to waste it with hard training.

When you’re training children like that.

Seira, now a trainee service priest, came running.

“Leon! Leone!”

I kept calling Leon’s name from afar to see what was so good about it.

“Sera?”

“Leon! No, Senior Leone.”

“What’s up?”

Seira replied slowly.

“Practice has been decided!”

“already?”

“yes! Priest Ruth told me to tell you.”

Seeing how busy the church is, I thought I’d rest for a while longer.

I didn’t think that practice would be caught already.

“What practice did you get caught in?”

“You said you were practicing worship.”

worship practice.

This was the scammer’s specialty.

A deep smile appeared on Leon’s face.

“Kyahaha! You look like a villain!”

That was a devilish smile.
