I Became a Druid whom the Different Races are Obsessed With - Chapter 83



83 – Short Horned Renisha

“I didn’t mean to surprise you…” Sorry, sorry… Sorry….”

A centaur girl with the lower body of a reindeer and small horns.

She suddenly appeared and began to twist her body, apologizing inaudibly.

Despite her rich brown hair and voluptuous chest, the concentration of her magical power hidden behind the gloomy atmosphere is truly enormous.

Just by looking at her dark blue mana, one could tell that she was far from her ordinary self.

[Gloomy Busty Centaur….]

“Beep. “You shouldn’t say things like that in front of yourself.”

Piyi sympathized with what she muttered, but she couldn’t show it outwardly.

I lightly pointed out Piyi’s rudeness and greeted the centaur girl in front of me.

“There is no need to apologize like that. Is there something going on beyond that? “The guardian decided to wait outside.”

“Ah! Well, I’m not a guardian….”

She trailed off as she shook her head.

She is a young woman who seems to have extremely low self-esteem.

She is not even a guardian, so why did she come here?

To help her relax, I offered her a seat and asked about her purpose.

“If you are coming to visit us, please sit here instead of standing. “As long as I stay wild, the babies won’t cry.”

“Yes? Oh, okay….”

“So what happened and who are you looking for?”

“Yes? I-I… “You came because the chief told you to go?”

“Chief?”

Among the Centaurs, the only person worthy of being called a chief was ‘Maticus the Black Foot.’

Who on earth is this girl that Matikus sent us?

I continued asking questions as I watched the centaur girl sit down.

“We call them Gaul, Pii, Kaa, and Shizu in order, starting with me. “What is your name?”

“I… My name is Renisha. Short-horned Renisha….”

Renisha with short horns.

It was a name I had heard before.

As I was remembering when I was there, Piyi, who had already crawled onto Renisha’s body, opened her mouth.

[Ah! The centaur was the first to pray!]

“Ah!”

Thanks to Piyi, I succeeded in recalling the memory and looked at Renisha with brief admiration.

The reason why Centaurs, who had low intelligence let alone religious beliefs, were able to evolve by receiving the blessing of wild nature.

A saint who did not even know the concept of God, but connected Mahesar and Centaurs as if she had received revelation.

Seeing such a strange being in front of me, my curiosity, which I had never known before, rose up like a flood.

“You were a candidate for Centaur’s priestess. “Maticus deserved to send it to us.”

“Yes? Si, are you a priest?”

Her deep mana could also be fully understood if interpreted as ‘she has the qualities of a priestess.’

It is said that the mana needed for the wild male god to descend is received from offerings from the divine women.

Perhaps Mahesar blessed Renisha, who first prayed to him, and identified her as his priestess.

But what exactly happened that allowed the girl who was a monster to open her eyes to faith?

After handing over the baby I was holding to Shizu, I asked Renisha.

“Nice to meet you. But while I was coming here, I kept wondering, how on earth did you end up praying?”

“Um, me?”

“Then are there other centaurs here besides you?”

“Ah! Sorry, sorry… Sorry.”

“You can answer comfortably without feeling so pressured. “Even though I am a druid, there is no need to find it difficult.”

“Yes….”

Renisha clicked her fingers and lowered her head.

Seeing such reactions, it seemed like it would take a year to hear an answer.

However, if you press for an answer or show signs of frustration, you will become even more intimidated.

I waited calmly, stopping Piyi from playing on Lenisha’s sled.

After a while, Renisha, who had been muttering as if she had gathered all the answers, opened her mouth.

“I… I was just curious….”

“I’m curious?”

“Yes… Why do people hate centaurs? Why are centaurs jealous of people? Why can’t we get along with each other? “I was curious about the reason, so I secretly watched people.”

“Hmm. I see.”

“At first, I was caught by the people watching and almost died… After observing people for so many years, I got a knack for it… Thanks to this, I can now get as close as I want without being detected….”

[Gloomy Busty Stalker Centaur….]

I observed people out of curiosity.

In response to Renisha’s response, Piyi quietly muttered something rude.

As I was feeding Piyi a light honey chestnut, Leni Shah tilted her head and carefully continued her answer.

“Then, naturally, I came to know… That magic is not the power of people. “There is another being who gives magic to people.”

“Aha. “Do most people seek God by reciting incantations whenever they use magic?”

“Yes… So, I tried to follow the spell to see if I could use magic… After following this a few times, a blessing came down and this happened….”

[And there’s even occult talent─ ah!]

I nodded at Renisha’s answer and fed Piyi some honey chestnuts again.

The setting of ‘a sullen busty centaur girl who likes stalking and the occult’ was too long and rude.

Of course, it wasn’t that I didn’t agree with Piyi’s words.

It’s just that it wasn’t nice to see someone throwing a tantrum in front of the person involved.

[Woo! Why are you hitting me again?]

“I told you not to say things like that in front of me.”

As I was instilling etiquette while yelling at Biya, Renisha, who was watching, lowered her head and went into gloomy mode again.

Did you get hurt after hearing Piyi’s words?

As I kept pinching Piy’s cheek with that thought in mind, Renisha, who had been clicking her fingers, opened her mouth in a hushed voice.

“I’m sorry… Because of me, babies are like this… It’s all my fault… Sorry….”

It seemed like he was blaming himself, thinking that it was because of him that this evil had happened.

But in this situation, Renisha did nothing wrong.

I was so shocked to see Lenisa blaming herself that I offered her words of comfort.

“What do you mean! Thanks to you, the centaurs received God’s blessing, right? Rather, it is something to be praised and not something to apologize for.”

“But… If I hadn’t prayed, this wouldn’t have happened… All the babies who didn’t survive the winter died because of me….”

Perhaps because of her exceptionally low self-esteem, Renisha’s guilt was large and deeply engraved.

She is trying to take responsibility for all of her sacrificed babies in this situation, blaming herself.

I was worried that other centaurs might hear me, so I hurriedly came to my defense.

“No. It’s never your fault. “If I had to pick a fault, it was Mahesar who gave the blessing irresponsibly.”

“Ma, Mahesar?”

“Okay. “The name of the male god of the wild is Mahesar.”

In response to the defense of the wild male god, Renisha raised her lowered head again.

But the guilt she had been carrying since last year did not go away easily, and thick tears were dripping from her deer-like eyes.

It is difficult to see someone without sin having a hard time.

It seemed to be the same not only for me but also for Shizu and Kaa, as the two young ladies who had been watching quietly came in to help, holding up the baby they were holding.

“It’s not good to see you pointing out a wild male god, but anyway, as Ghaul said, there’s no need for you to feel guilty. The babies here may be weak right now, but they have infinite potential to become stronger than anyone else in the future. “Keep in mind that what is bestowed upon the Centaur is a blessing, not a curse.”

“Hmph. First of all, all centaurs should be grateful to you. If it weren’t for you, Centaur wouldn’t have been able to escape from being a monster. “He would have suffered if he had been subjugated by us, and he would never have dreamed of receiving help like he is now.”

Lenisha nodded her head, wiping away her tears as the two young ladies responded.

I smiled bitterly at that and quietly looked around at the babies around her.

‘It looks like not all the babies survived.’

There were about twenty babies gathered together, but considering that there were hundreds of centaurs, it was a very small number.

Probably because of the poor environment and insufficient childcare knowledge, many babies were unable to survive and passed away.

There was truly no story that was heartbreaking.

[But don’t worry anymore. Since we are here, it will be okay from now on.]

“Huh… yes… thank you… Thank you very much….”

[I am crying so sadly. You must have been in a lot of trouble?]

“Huh… Yes… I feel sorry every time I see the babies… Hmm….”

I felt like I was moved to tears by the sight of Renisha wailing loudly while looking at Piy, who was the size of a pea.

It is said that he got somewhat better thanks to the comfort we gave him, but that didn’t mean he could shake off all his guilt.

It seemed like what Renisha needed now was not the comfort of a third party one step away, but a clear guarantee from the person involved in the incident.

In that case, for Renisha’s sake, I have no choice but to provide a place where her parties can meet each other.

I looked at Lenisa, covered in tears and snot, and opened her mouth.

“It is good to relieve guilt, but it is not good to harbor resentment. “I will help her resolve her resentment.”

“Ugh… yes? Well, it’s not particularly unfair….”

“Still, shouldn’t we at least say something to the irresponsible Namshin who disappeared after showering blessings?”

Trius or Mahesarna. I don’t know why the gods in this town are like this.

I should use this opportunity to vent my resentment about this and that, but it won’t work.

It could be said that it was a good thing since we also had to select a priestess from among the centaurs.

“We will have to serve each other for a long time, so we shouldn’t have any grudges between us.”

“Mo, are you serving me?”

Renisha asked back, embarrassed by my remarks.

I looked at her dark blue mana and nodded at her.

“You. “Become a priestess.”
