Chapter 59: Baptism Ceremony (2)
From her back, she seemed to overlap with his figure.
The Bellacroix family, who served the saint, was not a notable family in this era originally.
Though it was a prestigious family by reputation, it was nothing without the saint.
But in this historical era, where both a saint and a saintess appeared simultaneously, it would have been absurd if the Bellacroix family hadnt made a move.
Serving the saint was their mission. Now that a new saint had appeared, they naturally showed movement.
But why was one of the young ladies from that place volunteering as a servant in the saints mansion?
Iriel muttered, not understanding their actions.
I cant understand it.
She shook her head.
Arriving at the summit for the meeting, Ray whistled softly when he saw the village laid out below him.
Whew, thats quite a sight.
The landscape was filled with people to the point that they were more noticeable than the village itself.
The bustling crowd was looking up at where he was.
It was far, but the village below was not out of sight.
Seeing Ray, the crowd murmured.
Is that the new saint?
I cant see well, but the white hair is quite noticeable. If its white hair, then he must be the saint.
Doesnt he look handsome?
Where, where!
Ray felt the weight of his new title as he monopolized the attention of many.
Just showing up had drawn the attention of many.
With just a few words, he probably could have made them move like waves.
In the midst of these unnecessary thoughts, Euclid bowed her head as if apologizing for interrupting his thoughts and said,
Saint, I apologize, but before the ceremony, you must say a few words to the people.
What are you talking about?
Just as I told you. The ceremony is originally a sign of respect to the gods. Before that, showing respect to the people is like asking them to support us in the future.
He didnt remember hearing such a thing from Iriel.
No, it wasnt that he couldnt remember, but such an event was nonexistent in history!
Why was he missing out on these important teachings?
If he had asked Iriel, she probably would have answered like this.
Huh? You dont need to remember such things. Youre just talking to the people, so just say something and they will interpret it in a good way. Hehehe.
He felt as if he could hear her laughter.
Ray held his forehead and shook his head, and Euclid said,
Anyway, since youre just talking to the people, you can speak comfortably. They will interpret it in a good way.
Looking down with an expressionless face, Ray felt a shiver down his spine as he heard the exact same words he thought Iriel would say.
The only difference was that her expression was an infinitely cold and expressionless face.
Could it be that Euclid was similar to Iriel? Pushing away the rising thought, he took a step forward.
The pressure he felt was not small, but he steeled his heart and headed for the platform.
The platform, designed to be visible to the crowd, was so burdensome that just standing there was enough to draw attention.
Feeling their gaze, the murmuring of the crowd was quite loud.
He couldnt understand exactly what they were saying, but he knew they were talking about him.
.
Being someone with excellent speech skills even in the modern era,
Moreover, it wasnt that he had never given a speech in front of such a crowd before.
He felt nervous, but he wasnt afraid.
On the contrary, he felt a sense of excitement that he hadnt felt in a long time.
However, to others, he might have looked too nervous, with his facial expressions all tensed up.
Euclid also seemed to feel the same way. Quietly observing him, she cautiously handed something to Ray.
Whats this?
Ray asked as he looked at the small object decorated with gold in the palm of his hand.
Huh?
Meteor? Magician?
For those who had been thinking of a cleric or a high priest, this was an unexpected statement.
And it was natural for them to think so, as he was now a saint, not a magician.
So, did you think I achieved that now?
They had no response to that. However, they could all see that their gazes were negative.
Becoming a magician at his current age seemed nearly impossible.
Just like Hopel of the Silos Duchy, who was just a 1st Circle user.
Despite that, he was being praised as a magical prodigy.
If he had entered the 2nd Circle by the age of 20, he would have been called a genius.
The fact that he, at just fifteen, was both a meteor shower-casting magician and a saint was unbelievable.
If I said that I created a meteor in the sky, what would you think?
Then wouldnt that be a lie?
How can a person command meteors? It seems the Saint has given an exaggerated example.
Even the nobles who had been attentively listening to his story at the baptism shook their heads.
That was a bit too much.
But still, youve spoken well so far.
However, Ray did not stop despite their words.
I will show you the dream I had and the reality I achieved.
As he spoke, mana gathered around him.
Drrrrrrr-
As the surroundings faintly trembled, the nobles and commoners tensed up.
Rays mana had dominated the atmosphere around him.
He turned off the amplification magic to make the incantation inaudible.
Rock Storm. Psychokinesis. Fire.
Krrrrrr-
In an instant, small rocks around him rose like a storm, forming a large sphere in the sky.
Soon after, in the blink of an eye, ignited flames enveloped the spherical rock floating in the sky.
Wooosh-
A noble dropped a plate filled with food onto the ground.
They were at a loss for words at the unbelievable phenomenon unfolding before their eyes.
The way he reversed only the gravity of the rocks with his mana control was truly miraculous.
Moreover, it would be difficult to find someone in this other world who could manifest all of this with the amount of mana they possessed.
Looking at the enormous sphere floating in the sky, not only the commoners but also the nobles opened their mouths in awe.
Euclid, too, could not maintain her usual expressionless face. She stared at the sphere in the sky with a pale complexion.
The thought of fleeing never crossed her mind. After all, if that thing plummeted to the ground, they would all perish just the same.
But the sphere, despite its colossal size, showed no signs of falling.
Instead, it merely floated in the sky, burning tranquilly.
How much mana would one require to make such a phenomenon possible?
Ray enhanced his voice once more and spoke.
I altered reality bit by bit. Eventually, in accordance with my wish, I transformed into a magician who could summon meteors.
No one could respond to his words. The absurdity he had uttered had acquired a sense of reality.
Do you have dreams? What about your reality?
The nobles, too, considered Rays words once more.
Cancel. Psychokinesis.
At his command, the sphere morphed back into small rock fragments and descended to the ground, but Ray intercepted them.
He then directed them all to a nearby mountain. Since they had originally been suspended in the sky, scattering them was not a difficult task.
The meteor, which had vanished from the sky without a trace, left them gazing blankly at Ray.
I hope you all achieve your dreams. I will spare no effort to assist you in reaching them. Please lend me your strength in doing so.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
