Episode 44 – Restoration
I am a Golem.
I am a golem who is reflecting on the fact that I may have overdone it last night.
When I think about it calmly, I wonder if the humans would feel threatened by last night's line-lights. Well, there's nothing we can do about what has passed. We just have to change our behavior from now on. Let's try not to let off the big line-lights in the city.
As I was watching from the roof of a building some distance away from the mansion where the children and female adventurers had been taken, a group of what appeared to be Knights entered the mansion. It sounded like they had done a lot of bad things, so I hope they investigated thoroughly.
A lot of human-sized objects wrapped in cloth were carried out of the house. The sight of them made me feel uncomfortable. I prayed that at least they could sleep in peace.
・・・・・・ I did not get the log. This means that I may have attacked Sebastian and others by praying at that time. Can a ghost really get damaged by prayer?
What a cruel world this is. I never thought that my good intentions would end up hurting someone else.
But that's what it means to live. Probably.
I am now at the church.
I went to the slum to see what had happened to the children I saved yesterday, and found that they had returned to the slum. All these children were gathering together and were about to go somewhere. I wondered what was going on, so I followed them from the roof of the building. It seemed that the children had business at the church ahead.
I guess it was the day of the Church's food service. There were quite a few people there. But the church doesn't seem to have that much room. The building was noticeably damaged, and the food was, frankly, poor.
After the children finished eating the cooked meal with pleasure, they followed the sisters of the church. They gathered and sat around the sister and seemed to be listening to God's teachings for children. When the sister finished her talk, the children went back to the slum.
This church has been good to my fans, the children. Good things should come to those who deserve it. If this world is cruel, let us be merciful, even if only to ourselves.
Well, It is sad that I cannot transmit my feelings about this to anyone.
It was night time.
I approached the church on foot. I start with the worn-out gate. I stand idly holding the gate. After a little while, the gate was restored to its original state. My [Restore] skill is very useful. After fixing the gate, I went on to fix the crumbling walls around the church one by one. Even though I'm fixing them, I'm just standing there with my hands on the broken places.
Hmm? I feel eyes on me. Who is it?! I kept my hand on the wall and looked around, but I couldn't see anyone.
・・・・・・ It's not just my imagination, either. It's my sixth sense that noticed this peeping tom. I'm sure someone was watching me. Well, no. Since the [Hidden] skill is active, it should be a peep demon with a clean heart. If you want to peep, peep. I'm open to most things, you know. I don't have anything to be ashamed of!
Now, the fence is all done. I'm afraid of my skills. Super convenient.
Next, let's fix the church building itself. The cracked window panes and the emblem on the roof of the church. Even the holes in the roof are being carefully fixed one by one. I'm just touching and sitting still, but I'm working hard!
The exterior of the church has been completely restored. The next step would be to go inside the church. I wondered how I would get in. I thought that the front door of the church would be closed, but when I pushed the door, it opened.
What?! It's open. Forgot to lock the door, hmm? How careless of them.... I muttered in my mind, "Ojamashimasu" and quietly went inside.
I touched the damaged parts of the long chairs in the church to restore them. There are a lot of chairs in the church. But it should be done by the end of the night. I'm not sure if there's a skill level for [Restore] or not. The speed of restoration is getting faster and faster.
After all, everything is an accumulation of small things. You don't just get faster all of a sudden. It's a gradual process.
Above all, there is a reason why I want to finish fixing it tonight. I think it will have a greater impact if it is fixed in one night. If it suddenly became beautiful overnight, people would really think, "What the hell happened here!?" Fufufu. Surprises are fun to create! Let's do this!
I spent a long time cleaning up the cracks in the walls of the church. The stained glass, which is the face of the church, is also a bit broken and cracked. This is where rock climbing comes in handy. I was able to climb up the wall easily and successfully fix the stained glass.
In front of the stained glass, there is a rather large stone statue.
I wonder if it represents the God that we believe in at this church. The fingertips and other small parts of the body are broken. The right arm is broken and missing in its entirety. This is terrible. I touched it carefully and restored it. However, it is taking a long time to restore it because there is no arm at the end of the damaged part.
I wonder how it is possible to restore it. Could it be using my magic power? Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is an otherworldly fantasy. Mysterious power is called mysterious power because it's mysterious. It would be tactless to think about such a foolish thing. Well, let's not think about things we don't understand. It's all about fixing it.
All right, now that I've fixed the statue, I'll have a look in the other rooms. However, the sisters are in this church, so I have to be careful not to be spotted. I came to a room that looked like a kitchen. There are a lot of bowls. Most of them are made of wood, but most of them are chipped or cracked. I restored all of them one by one. I didn't skimp on the small details either. I didn't think it was possible to fix such a small part. I think everyone would be more surprised by that.
I will not stop until the end!
I have successfully restored the church to its former glory before dawn. I am the golem who always meets his deadlines. I proceeded to the gate and looked back to check my work. I nodded to myself, acknowledging my work. I was satisfied with my work. Just as I was basking in the glow of my work, the doors of the church opened and a female priest and sister came out and bowed to me.
What?! Was I being watched the whole time?! I'm not sure what to do. Is that why the door to the church was open?!! The surprise has failed! There's nothing more embarrassing than a surprise being exposed. I left the church with a feeling of embarrassment.
{Log: The effect of the [Enlightened One] has resolved the state of agitation}
Phew, what a surprise gone wrong. I'm not going to go to church for a while now. I wish those priests could have read the air and said, "Oh, my God, what a surprise!"
Thinking about this, I sit on the roof of a building where I can see the royal castle.
The morning sun is so dazzling. And I am even more dazzling when I am illuminated by it.
Then out of the royal castle walked a man in black robes who had stood in front of me the other day. Hmm, I believe he was looking at me. The one who wore the black robe, is it okay to wear the black robe because it's too long? The black robe man walks near my building.
Hmm, I'm sure you're aware of me. Come if you will. As I was thinking this, a black robe floated up to the roof where I was sitting. Flying is quite a feat. The fluttering of the robe was a bit cool. I stood up for a moment.
The black robed man then took out a wand with a black, eerie jewel in his right hand. What's with the bad taste in wands? He also muttered something to me.
"Slave, thou shalt enslave before my power."
You want me to be your slave? What do you want? I shake my head at the actions of the black robes. The voice of the world that echoed next startled me.
{Log: Golem was attempted to be enslaved by the ruler King Tin}
Wh-What the hell? King Tin, the ruler!? Me? a slave?! I don't think so・・・・・・
