As Martha spoke, she held the statue in the middle of the room that was almost a head taller than her whole body.
That's a statue of an angel.
Magicians have almost no religious beliefs. They belong to the category of occultism. They will not believe in religious gods. They only believe in the gods they believe in. This is just like people who produce certain processed foods will not eat what they make.
, because they know exactly what they have added to it.
Therefore, there are very few Christians in Chaldea.
Naturally, there are very few Christian angel statues.
The statue that Martha brought was obtained from Emperor Nero.
According to His Majesty, it seemed that an idea flashed through his mind, and endless ideas emerged, and he wanted to carve a winged version of himself, [Venus Nero] in the name of the goddess of beauty, Venus, but we all
We know that inspiration is something that does not last long.
So His Majesty Nero had just selected the stone and started carving a rough shape, but he couldn't figure out exactly what shape the so-called Venus Nero was, so he put it on hold indefinitely.
Hearing that Martha wanted to use it, His Majesty the Emperor, who had no inspiration and three minutes of enthusiasm, generously rewarded her with the statue.
It can be used after polishing the face part a little to make it blurry.
After all, religious gods are formless. In the religious paintings we see in daily life, if a painter paints an angel with the same appearance, it is not considered blasphemous.
"Well... if you say it's an angel... I feel like there's something missing, but that's all. It's just for other people to use. Those of us who are devout believers will not waver in our faith because of such a small problem. The Lord is
With sincere respect, this kind of external formality problem is harmless."
Giorgios held his chin with one hand. Looking left and right, he felt that the angel statue was not very pleasing to the eye, but he soon accepted it calmly. At this time, it is better to have a vague symbol than nothing at all.
Otherwise, the main hall would be empty, which would be too strange.
"I'm sorry, Lord Martha. As a servant, I focus more on defense and durability. Muscular strength is really not my area of expertise."
Giorgios apologized to Martha who was dusting off her hands. Martha was stunned, her face turned red, and she quickly said: "Ah hahaha, tell me, what are you talking about? Your Excellency Giorgios, I just
You’re just an ordinary woman, hahaha. It’s just because you’ve transformed into a Servant that you can move. We all have the same strength!”
Martha's prevarication only made Saint George smile slightly and remain noncommittal.
"Well, very good. As for the layout, this should be about the same, right?"
On the other side, Joan of Arc, with a peaceful smile on her face, piled flowers and plants that she found from nowhere in the room and arranged them into a passage.
Although it is an ordinary room with nothing special about it, after three people carefully decorated it, it finally looks like something.
As mentioned many times before, Chaldea now has many empty rooms due to casualties.
So the three of them suddenly came up with a brilliant idea: rooms that are not used by anyone are idle anyway, so why not make use of them?
It just so happens that the three of them are Christian saints and famous Christian believers around the world. Why not build a church by yourself?
Calling it a church, the concept is too grand, and the space created by the three of them is too shabby. To use an analogy, it is similar to the feeling of a club in school, but with a simple appearance.
Therefore, they moved the angel statue and placed flowers and plants. Three-layer partitions were added to the wardrobe in the corner, which was used as a classic bookshelf with some books recording the words and deeds of the Lord.
Looking at it this way, it looks cool!
As the saying goes, if the mountain is not high, there will be immortals.
The room is just an ordinary furnishing, but with the three world-famous saints gathered here, it naturally becomes holy.
On the sign at the door, Saint George wrote the words "Saints' Association" in a free and easy hand. This was the place where the three of them would gather from time to time.
If the work of more than 400 people in Chaldea is backlogged on dozens of people, it will definitely cause mental pressure. Therefore, this place also serves as a confessional and chapel, and even serves as a spiritual refuge.
The three of them worked hard for a long time and finally finished a place like this chapel.
Looking at the small space that I have gained after my hard work, a sense of full satisfaction surges into my heart, followed by feelings of pride and pride. It really makes people feel happy. There is a joyful feeling that all your efforts have been harvested.
.
Now there is only one patient left who needs to be cured.
However, what Chaldea is most lacking in is people with different personalities, or in other words, people with mild or severe mental problems.
For example, caster Gildray...
Although Joan was moved by this man who came to Chaldea following Joan of Arc, at the same time, it also made her feel troubled from the bottom of her heart.
(He has become like that. The destined past cannot be overturned. Now the only way to pray for his soul is to be saved...)
When she thought of him, Jeanne's heart felt extremely painful.
Although that man is not a wise leader, nor is he an excellent marshal, at least he is someone who is willing to support himself, a village girl, in revolting to save France, and he is someone who firmly believes that he can save France. Such a partner has actually fallen to this level.
Such a situation... is really disappointing.
If he could come here to pay homage and enlighten him, maybe...
Joan of Arc quickly gave up this idea.
Judging from Gildre's appearance, he must have been unable to change his ways through words and prayers.
Servants, in particular, respond to the summons in the profile form of the heroic spirit. Just like applying makeup to the figure in the mirror, no matter how beautiful the makeup is, it cannot change the appearance of the person.
Is there another person who particularly needs this place...
Although they didn't say it explicitly, the three people present had an idea.
That is the person in Chaldea who looks most like a monster and a devil.
Vlad III the Impaler, the original vampire Dracula, the man full of murderous karma.
He answered the call as a berserker and is an out-and-out vampire.
It can be said that this realm of pure religion should be a place where his mortal enemy is. Well, he probably won't come here, right?
Although he is a vampire, he is willing to listen to Fujimaru Ritsuka's orders for the sake of human rights. It can be said that he is the kind of monster who can communicate... Let's put it aside for now.
————————————————
At night, the Saints Association also temporarily stopped its activities. The three Saints each returned to their own rooms to deal with their own affairs. After all, except for Martha, all the three of them had just come to Chaldea, so the room layout should suit them.
It makes you feel comfortable!
There was silence. Following the gate of the Saints Association, black smoke came in from the gap. The thick smoke gathered into the figure of a man, tall and thin.
He didn't say anything, just looked around.
As if there were lice in his clothes, he twisted his shoulders and body uncomfortably, enduring the itching feeling. The room without the lights was dark. He blended into the darkness and walked to the angel statue. He clasped his hands and paid respect to it.
I did this for a week.
Even though he is said to be a demon, even though he is infected with the power of a vampire due to the summoned form, his essence is still the proud Romanian monarch, the noble warrior known as the Shield of Christianity.
What was he praying for?
He didn't say anything, and no one asked.
Maybe it's the Lord.
That was his belief.
Or is it his past?
I offer my prayers to my once noble self.
He bowed silently, and then left the room silently.
Since then, Vlad III has never been to this room again.
As a vampire, he knows very well that he has nothing to do with this holy realm.
ps: Historically, Vlad III changed his faith. He was originally an Orthodox Christian and converted to Catholicism. However, both Orthodox Christianity and Catholicism are branches of Christianity. By the way, Joan of Arc is a Catholic saint.
