Chapter 309
I'm afraid it would be inconvenient if the individual in question were to come here.
Therefore, I've borrowed only her appearance.
Some theatrics are necessary.
I manifested myself during the Pope and presumably a priest's prayers at the church.
"Ah, who in the world are you?!"
If I appear with light from the statue of my mother-in-law, Ishtas, it tends to have this effect.
"Refrain, for I am the goddess Hera... the legally wedded wife of Serena, the daughter-in-law of the goddess Ishtas-sama."
"Goddess Hera! And the one behind... Ah, Ishtas-sama!"
Behind me stands the goddess Ishtas.
Of course, this is merely a borrowed appearance.
Think of it as a holographic projection; it's more straightforward that way.
Now, everyone knelt.
"I'll be frank. Pope Romani and the Eight Archbishops, cease treating Serena as a child of God this instant!"
"""""""""Huh!"""""""""
"No backtalk allowed! Understood? Serena came to this world to search for a fiancé and to enjoy the youth that her father, the divine dragon Ceres-sama, could not experience... that is the intention! It's not for salvation or the creation of a divine nation!"
"But we are religious people! Serving God is the ultimate joy!"
"I understand, but you must know that it is wrong. Pope Romani, you yourself know that... Alright? Serena will leave this world in three years... At that time, do you want him to think 'I had a good time' or leave with a sad face? Serena is a god, but he is still a child! Is it the role of religious people to trample on the wishes of Ishtas-sama and Ceres-sama, who want to give her various experiences? Aren't those who do not follow God's will not religious people, but rather betrayers? Is that alright?"
"""""""""We... can't possibly..."""""""""
"If you understand God's will, it's simple."
"What should we do..."
"Well, you see..."
My proposal is to present Serena as a distant relative of the Pope and enroll him in a school in the kingdom or empire.
And they will not interfere unless Serena asks for help.
That's the promise I made.
Serena-sama, even though it is better to have a lower position, being looked down upon is still a problem.
Being a relative of the Pope... that should be just right.
"I see, it's lonely but there's nothing we can do, right?"
"Yes, well then."
With this, everything should be fine.

"Serena, the discussion is over! It seems like you will be able to attend Royal Academy starting next week! Fleur, Rosalia, and Elsa have decided to accompany me to the heavenly realm for the bride training. For those three years, you will be with Daji and Carmilla——what? Are you telling me that you have an unknown fiance?"
"She's not my fiance! She's Nyoro, my familiar."
She looks quite beautiful, but her 'true form' seems to be different.
I feel a resemblance to a dragon.
"I am called Nyoro! Hera-sama, the future wife."
"You're being polite... But Nyoro-san, you will be separated from Serena for about half a year."
"Why? Nyoro is Serena-sama——"
"At 'Royal Academy,' familiar summoning is only allowed after six months of enrollment... please be patient until then."
"But Nyoro——"
"You see, I will endure for three years...and yet, you complain about half a year. Do you have a problem with that?"
"...Haa, there isn't..."
"Alright... Serena, in that case, I will speak to the three of them later and bring them with me tomorrow! Daji and Carmilla will accompany you as servants to the academy! Both of them are accustomed to human life and skilled at concealing their abilities... If you have any trouble, consult with them! I will also inform Ishtas-sama not to lend too much strength! Now, do your best so that you can have a fun academy life."
"Hera-sama."
"I am your fiancée, so there is no need for 'sama'!"
"Well then... Thank you, Hera."
"I am your fiancée and originally a goddess of motherhood... It is only natural for me to lend a hand to a young boy like you... Do your best."
"Yes."
"Oh, and one more thing! There was no way to seal Serena's abilities! If you want to make friends, make sure to exercise self-restraint!"
"Understood."
"It's an absolute rule!"
"Yeah."
Well, with those two around, everything should work out somehow...
After that, I just need to talk to Daji and Carmilla... Phew, finally...
Hello, we have a new project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord. However, for some reason, the human-demon war has resumed and will take place in the MC's original world. The MC, unaware of this, meets a Saint from that world and asks them to join the war. But what does the MC say? They refuse. Is it because their love was rejected by the princess when they adventured together in the past or are they simply fed up? And are the MC will join later? You can find out by clicking on the following => [Link]
