The Academy Leader is too Strong - Chapter 79
Only Krnovel
Dicke was very kind. He kindly answered everything I asked.
“Most ancient texts are made up of ambiguous expressions and idioms. This is because of the language system of the time.”
“oh.”
Even Winter, who had initially lamented Davide’s considerable questions, asked about things he didn’t know.
He had a lot of knowledge necessary for the denomination, such as how the denomination operates and how to finance the denomination, and he had no hesitation in providing it.
“Therefore, cross-validation of various data is necessary. “Anaye may also appear in the scriptures of other gods.”
He never mentioned the secrets of the Karata sect, but he answered questions about know-how as soon as they were asked.
Winter now took out her notebook and began to take notes.
“Junior. “Do you know that I am Seongpil?”
“Of course I know. It is an artifact comparable to the Bible, meaning it is the brush used to write the Bible.”
When Davide winked, Winter took out a pen from her arms.
Dicke, who immediately realized that it was Seongpil, opened his eyes wide.
“oh my god. Anaye cares very much about the members of the church. “You sent me such a precious item.”
“Priest. The first thing Seongpil Lee did was write down a certain sentence. “I’m not sure what that means.”
Dickey pondered Winter’s question for a moment.
“There was a similar case in the past in the Karata Sect. This happened during the founding era of the Karata Sect.”
Dick continued his story slowly. Winter’s eyes lit up and David listened.
“A sentence appeared in the Qaratha Bible. At that time, the church was able to find out the sentence due to the presence of the saint. The sentence was, ‘We are leaving soon.’”
“We’re leaving soon?”
Dicke nodded in response to Winter’s question.
“At that time, the Karata Church considered it a revelation and began to figure out the scale of ‘us’ and where to go.”
It was quite interesting to hear stories of other religions from people of other religions. Dicke’s voice was easy to listen to and did not disturb my concentration.
“So the Karata Church abandoned their home and headed somewhere else. But that is not what revelation meant.”
“then?”
Dicke smiled gently in response to Davide’s question. It was because I felt interested in Davide, who always seemed calm.
“The saint passed away and the ‘Great Divinity’ appeared in the place where the sect originally stood.”
“no way?”
“Yes. The entrance to what is now called the ‘Sanctuary’ was originally where the Karata Cult was located. The ‘Great Sacred’ was the path leading to the ‘Sanctuary’.”
Winter made a sad sound as she listened to the story. Same goes for Davide.
If they had not moved so hastily, the current Bible would have been managed by the Karata Church. The wealth and influence that followed would have been incalculable.
“If you listen to what Ms. Winter said, I think that’s also a revelation. But the thing to be careful about is that it’s a choice. In the case of the Karata Church, leaving and returning had the same meaning. To be exact, they happened at the same time.”
Davide recalled the sentence written by Seongpil. Just save me.
“Can you tell me what sentence it was?”
Winter looked at Davide in response to Dicke’s cautious question. Davide nodded his head.
“Just save me.”
“But please save me. In the ancient languages, salvation and death were contrasting words. For some gods, death was salvation. There are texts that say that races like giants hated long life because they lived very long. So I heard that constant struggle and early death on the battlefield were great blessings for them.”
Every word of Dike’s was of great help. According to Dike’s words, the word ‘save’ could also be interpreted as the word ‘kill’.
“I am impressed by the attitude of such a fervent religious person.”
I felt that the religious direction that had been sluggish was gradually loosening up. The knowledge and information that Winter had was of course great.
However, this was Winter’s first time in the classroom. What Davide wanted to ask was information that came from experience, not knowledge.
“this. It’s already 10 minutes before the auction. It was a fun conversation. Seniors. “I hope you enjoy today’s auction.”
“Thank you. It helped me a lot.”
“Really! thank you!”
Davide expressed his sincere gratitude for the first time in a while. Dike’s education was of that high quality.
“Hehe. Didn’t you want to be taught? I was also happy to meet such passionate students. If you have any questions, please come by anytime.”
Dicke said goodbye with a warm smile. That handsome young man made a good impression with more than just his looks.
For Davide, it was something that even Winter could not do.
“and. oh my god. “It was more meaningful than 3 classes.”
“Is it that much?”
Winter was full of praise. She seemed to like it quite a bit. She looked through the notes with a bright girlish smile on her face.
“Yes. You even seem to have a talent for teaching. You grasp the essence of a question and bring up things that weren’t even asked, and explain them in an easy-to-understand way.”
Although his interest in studying should be praised, he felt a sense of rejection at first. Davide shook his head and drank his whiskey.
“This has made things a little more concrete.”
“platform?”
“yes. “Up until now, I’ve mainly focused on what needs to be done and what the Lofty Church requires, but now I can see a little bit of a plan.”
David also completely agreed with Winter’s words. Up until now, it was too vague. I just waited for the religious quest to appear.
Of course, it was closer to preparing for the future rather than actively breaking it. Even just that much would have produced the desired result.
It must have taken a while, but in that sense, the 20-minute or so conversation with Dickey was useful.
It is said that it was advice that could sufficiently accelerate the prosperity of the Anaye Church.
“I thought that all we had to do was increase the number of church members.”
“therefore. “I was surprised too.”
The only thing that was on my mind was increasing the number of members in the church. I was worried about how to deal with that issue, even if I didn’t care about anything else.
But Dicke firmly denied it. He added that it would be very difficult to increase the number of members of the church without thinking.
“I didn’t know taxes would be that high. And the more people there are, the more taxes there are.”
“Well, I figured out the benefits of that.”
“Yes, of course. “The imperial system is certainly great at maintaining checks.”
The church was taxed in units of 10. The tax increased every time the number of people increased by 100. Unlike the estate tax, it was a tax paid directly to the imperial family.
The situation of the Anaye Church, which has just supplied candela bombs, begins to become tight when the number of members of the Church exceeds 20.
“It will take quite a while for the donations to make a real profit.”
“We have no donations.”
“yes?”
Winter’s face turned ghastly. You may not know it, but what makes the most money in a religious denomination is donations.
The money regularly donated by believers in the denomination was a kind of tax. Considering that taxes are the most important thing in running a country, donations to religious denominations were very important.
David’s words mean that he will run the church without such things. It is more difficult than trying to sail a ship without wind.
“To be exact, there is no such thing as forced donations.”
“uh. uh. hmm.”
Eventually, Winter lost her language. How is Davide normally? Even though he looks lazy, he gets things done faster than anyone else.
No matter what happened, he dealt with everything in a snap. Whenever someone asked him something, he answered without hesitation, and it seemed like he was always thinking about it.
At least, Winter’s image of Davide was someone who looked lazy on the outside but was actually quick-witted in his own way.
And that image just got completely shattered.
“I assure you, senior. Without donations, the church cannot operate.”
“That means there is no forced donation.”
“That’s it. “Currently, except for the Lofty denomination, there is no denomination that does not have forced donations.”
Winter looked at Davide with a sullen expression. That stubborn person declared that he would go out of his way to do something difficult.
Of course, Winter and Warden, who are below them, will also suffer. It was natural for Winter to feel anxious about the obvious future.
“Then do it like the Lofty Order. do not worry. “There is a way.”
“… … What method?”
Davide paid no attention to Winter’s attitude. Instead, he smiled rather ferociously at her.
“Candela. Military bomb.”
“?”
“I’m going to sell it to the church members.”
“… … .”
Winter shut her eyes tightly. So you’re saying that you’re only going to sell limited edition items to your church’s followers?
“As long as we prove the power and effectiveness of military bombs.”
“… … “There will be a lot of people trying to buy it.”
“Those kinds of people will become believers in the church.”
“… … And selling it.”
A cult leader who thinks of doing business with his followers. It’s absurd, but if you think about it, there’s no way to make money this easily.
“It’s just about taking donations and giving out supplies.”
“There’s no compulsion. It’s not really useful for civilians who aren’t fighting in the first place.”
“… … That’s true, though.”
“Of course, we will make items that are useful to civilians as well.”
Winter smiled helplessly and ate her dessert. Do it yourself. I do not know. Davide laughed cheerfully at this attitude.
“You are more senior than me. Berenice came not long ago… … .”
-bang.
“hi.”
Winter, who was about to bring up the topic of Bereninche, was startled by the sound of the door being roughly opened. Davide, who was about to fall, caught himself and faced a familiar voice.
“Don’t you intend to come in with manners?”
“I knocked, but you didn’t hear me?”
“There’s no way I didn’t hear the knock.”
“I got caught.”
He glared at me harshly and warned me to be careful, but he shamelessly made a false excuse.
Davide was not easily fooled, but Berenice also entered the room without any hesitation.
“Whiskey? Didn’t you like beer originally?”
“Since it’s free, I should eat the expensive one.”
Berenice drank Davide’s whiskey without answering. He put the bottle to his mouth and drank it, as if he were drinking some kind of bottled water.
“Wow. “Is that the only reason Duhane drinks?”
“And then he was excommunicated.”
Winter, who was familiar with the strong flavor and frequency, was disgusted. How much do these Duhane guys drink?
“What about admission tickets? “You just have to go to the room written there.”
Davide, who had suddenly lost his seat to Berenine and was now sitting next to Winter, asked rudely.
-Ugh.
Berenine, who had her feet up on the step, took something out in a slouched manner. Berenine, who had the same ticket as David’s between her index and middle fingers, threw it away.
The admission ticket spun around violently like a throwing star and got stuck in the wall. Winter gaped at the strange feat.
Just by throwing the paper hard, he was able to pin it to the wall. That was quite a feat, if anything.
“ruler.”
“What.”
“money. “You do the auction.”
“You’ll keep it a secret from your family?”
One of Berenice’s eyebrows twitched. What Berenice wanted to do now clearly did not help the family.
She was willing to spend her own money to buy something that could easily be done with the family’s money. It seemed like she had something planned.
“There must be a fee, right?”
“Buy what you want with that. The list I showed you last time.”
The box that Bereninche handed over was full of money. A total of 100 500-knuckle gold coins. She said she received this amount of money as pocket money.
David also had money, which was not as much as this, but was by no means insufficient. Of course, it was given to Anaye, and is now nowhere to be found.
“call.”
Still, it was a pity. Davide swallowed the resentment that was rising up for no reason and accepted the offer.
But thanks to that, my heart quickly warmed up because I no longer had money to spend.
“Expensive things are different.”
With the auction about to start, David took a sip of whiskey. He didn’t have a hangover, but his mouth felt strangely sticky, which made him feel like he was drinking expensive alcohol.
I kept eating it because I liked it so much. I even ate a clove of dried garlic as a side dish.
Thanks to that, Winter next to me made an annoyed face. Berenice watched it and showed interest.
“Oh. What is that?”
“Dried garlic.”
“… …Why are you eating something like that?”
There was an immediate sharp reaction to the fact that it was a spice called garlic.
“It’s pretty delicious. “You put a lot of it in the seaweed soup you ate back then.”
“I know that too. Give me one.”
When I threw some garlic at her carelessly, she caught it with her fork. After examining it for a moment, Berenice sniffed it and then fearlessly put it in her mouth.
Winter stared at Berenin quietly, amazed at her bold actions.
“uh. what. “Is it delicious?”
Surprisingly, the response was good. Berenice widened his eyes as if he was truly surprised.
It is followed by a unique fluffy texture, a spiciness unique to garlic, and a unique aroma. She especially liked the spicy taste.
“Okay. also. “You know something.”
Davide, who was excited by Berenice’s positive response, took out another bag from his pocket and handed it to him. Berenice did not hesitate and took dried garlic.
“I heard that garlic is being promoted nationally in the Far East.”
“What is that? Is that paradise?”
Winter was dumbfounded by David’s excited tone. Even though his eating habits were unusual, they were extremely unusual. He was thankful that he didn’t smell anything.
