Mysterious Job Called Oda Nobunaga Chapter 39
Hearing that, I went to a shrine near the Maust castle town to pray, which is very unlike me.
Please, let it all go well, free from accident.
After all, men can't do anything other than praying at times like this.
-You also have a pious side to you, huh?
You stay quiet, job.
-There were also a few times when I went to pray as well. But, in the end, G.o.ds are nothing but a subject to cling on to. Men need to do what they need to do by themselves. But even still, I guess it is true that there is nothing else to do, other than to pray for the mother and the child's good health. Pray to your heart's content. I shall pray as well.
To think I would be cheered up by a job.
Who knows what kind of a reaction the priest will give if I tell him this?
The priest beside me was Elnata, who had granted me the job 'Oda n.o.bunaga'. With my success, I had him come all the way to Maust. Although from his perspective, it would be G.o.d who gave me this job but I would like to be superst.i.tious in these matters.
While I was praying in front of the idol, someone came and stood beside me.
I had thought it was quite disrespectful of them, to come stand beside a Count but I soon realized I had misunderstood.
"Serafina, I didn't hear anything about you coming…"
"Yes of course, I didn't say anything after all. But the job I got from G.o.d is Saint, you know? Don't you think it is only appropriate for me to come here?"
Saying that, she kneeled and started praying earnestly.
Old ancient letters kept a.s.sembling towards the G.o.d. The just goes to show how refined and highly educated Serafina was in her profession.
I was touched once again by her purity.
Serafina is a prideful person but she has continued working hard to well suit that.
Before long, Serafina's words had ended. At the end, she bowed to the idol.
"I want to become a G.o.ddess-A G.o.ddess protecting you."
"Really, I am glad you are my wife. So much that I would have hugged you right away if this wasn't a shrine."
Seems like the Saint's prayer had properly reached G.o.d.
When I returned to the Maust castle, I was informed of Raviara's childbirth by the attendant.
"A girl has been born!"
"Is, is Raviara alright?"
To me, who has lost both his parents at a young age, Raviara was like the only blood relative.
The attendant said with a broad smile.
"Yes, Raviarsama has endured very well."
I was relieved from the bottom of my heart.
"I have probably not worried as much even during the battles."
I announced my intention to lower the taxes next year. I had also wanted to hold on to the people of Naguuri prefecture and it was the perfect timing for that.
Later when I met Raviara, we hugged each other in tears.
"Thank you for giving birth to my child."
"I am also truly happy to have given birth to Alsrod-sama's child…"
And then, around the time I became the father of two kids, there were also a big change in politics.
Ha.s.se from the royal family was found.
