: Ricky (1)
Ricky was sweeping the yard after finishing breakfast and taking Anna to her room.
a routine that is repeated every day. but not boring
The grace I received from God, if I could repay it with this kind of thing, I could do it for the rest of my life.
"It's gloomy today."
Humidity is also high.
it looks like it's about to rain
It rained a lot in the summer, so it was not unusual.
I used to hate rain. I couldn't avoid it. If I tried to escape from the rain somewhere, I was beaten saying where the beggars came from.
It was the same in Rival. They did not give up their territory. The only time I gave it was for threshing.
It rained every day with my brother on a dirty alleyway.
Even if they barely covered the rain with the discarded cloth, the cloth quickly got wet and quickly wetted them.
'But not anymore.'
Ricky laughed softly.
Now there is shelter from the rain.
No one threshes, no one bothers.
Everyone is peaceful and happy.
live like that
Ricky!
Then the nun called him.
Yeah?
"The bishop is calling."
Ricky tilted his head when the bishop called him.
The first thing I thought about was whether I had done something wrong. It was a habit. In the past, I was always scolded, so I remembered what I had done wrong in order not to get scolded.
Of course, there was nothing wrong with that.
even more so now.
Yeah!
did not sin
And here, there is no need to forcefully make up excuses or sins.
It's okay to sin The Bishop does not punish a child who has sinned with a rod. If I have done something wrong, I will only give you Tyler so that I will not sin again.
So, the bishop's call should not be scary.
"Come here."
"Go now!"
Ricky's steps were light.
He took the nun's hand and, having a brief chat, headed to the bishop's office.
"Bishop, I'm here."
haha. Our Ricky is here."
Lincoln greeted Ricky with a friendly face.
The cheekbones attached to it were swaying.
"Sit down."
Yeah.
"Something to drink."
Okay.
At the bishop's words, the nun walked out of the bishop's room with a gunshot.
Ricky looked around the room with admiration.
Seeing this, the bishop said with a smile.
"Is this your first time here?"
Yeah. Come see me for the first time. But it's very nice. Lots of books, soft carpets, nice chairs."
A space that looks like a miniature miniaturized chapel.
Ricky's eyes twinkled.
Meanwhile, the nun pulled out the car.
The bishop sip his tea and opened his mouth.
"Are you happy with the church life?"
Yeah! So good. I have a place to sleep, I am not hungry, and above all, I have family-like priests and nuns and friends."
"That's lucky."
"It's all thanks to the bishop. thank you so much.
Ricky rose from his chair and greeted Lincoln at a 90 degree angle.
For him, Lincoln was the savior who brought him and Anna out of despair. If the Zenith Church had not taken root in this land, they would still have lived a hellish life.
"Everything is God's will. The fact that I found you and Anna, that you came here, and that you are sitting in front of me now drinking tea together. It all happens because the god Janice wants it."
God is great.
god is awesome
God is omnipotent.
Ricky nodded.
Their brother and sister's savior is Lincoln, but in the end it was their god, Zenith, who made it happen.
I didn't promise to devote my whole life here for nothing. He was also comforted by his younger brother, but it was because he had personally experienced a miracle.
"I will be the flesh and blood of Janice God. I will become a priest who does his will. I want to devote my life to living."
"God will be pleased with Zenith."
Lincoln patted Ricky's head as if strangely.
"Then why did you call me?"
"It's nothing. I'm just curious as to what it's like. I'm glad you're doing well.
Hi-Hi.
Ricky laughed like a child.
Then, with a sudden thought, I asked Lincoln a question.
"Can I ask you one thing?"
Anything.
"I wonder how Shinno is doing these days. Besides me, my friends at the orphanage often talk about Shinno. How are you?
"Anyway. They are there praying for everyone."
thank God.
Shinno, an orphan boy who was chosen by God.
I used to be jealous of him, but now I just want him to get along.
"And there will be good news tomorrow."
"Is that good news?"
"You will find out tomorrow."
Lincoln nodded with a friendly face.
'If tomorrow comes.'
His eyes gleamed insidiously.
* * *
The next day was bright.
The morning passed and the sun rose in the middle of the sky.
Ricky, Anna, and Van were having lunch in a restaurant.
"Shinno is doing well."
thank God. But why did you call me yesterday?"
Van asked, tearing the bread in half. Yesterday I went out for volunteer work and returned late, so I didn't hear from him.
Ricky answered by dipping bread in the soup.
just. He called because he was curious about whether life in the church was okay."
like that.
brother. Ah-
Anna opened her mouth and carefully bit the bread soaked in the soup.
Taking a full bite of the softened bread, Anna mumbled, puffing both cheeks and chewing them tightly.
It was so cute that Van stared blankly at him.
Right-!
Ouch!
"Don't look at someone else's younger brother like that."
Damn it. This little brother is an idiot."
Tears welled up in Van's eyes.
Ricky grinned and fed the salad to his younger brother this time.
"But didn't you see the paladin who came then?"
"Yes. Guess you went somewhere else. Even then, it looks like you've been here for a while.
The children did not know anything about the Paladin because they had never received a special message.
"He was so cool."
right. It was the first time I had seen such armor in front of my eyes."
"I also want to become a paladin later."
"Is the training really hard?"
"Isn't it cool even when it's hard?"
Van laughed playfully.
"Well. I think you'll do well. It's because he's the biggest among us and has good stamina."
The van Ricky saw was a boy full of tenacity.
I don't know if I'll ever become a paladin, but if I did, I thought I'd do it really well.
At that moment, an announcement rang out throughout the church.
-All priests and nuns, and believers staying within the denomination, please gather in the worship hall after one hour. We will guide you again. All priests and nuns, as well as believers staying within the denomination, are requested to gather in the chapel after one hour.
"What is your brother?"
Well. I don't know."
What's going on?
The three Musketeers tilted their heads at the sudden announcement.
1 hour later.
After some rest, they headed to the chapel.
Many people have already come.
They roughly sat down and waited for Bishop Lincoln, who would soon be seated on the podium.
Soon after, Lincoln came up to the stage and said hello to everyone.
"Did everyone enjoy dinner?"
"Yes," the gathered people answered.
