Hello, it's Nobusada who still isn't used with the youthfulness of this body and its morning tent.
Anyway, let's do my best today.
The fatty meat and the egg yolk in the slit are dripping onto the muffin. Rich taste of the yolk and the sauce overflowed in my mouth as I bit into it. Way too good. What's this, the inside of my mouth is already a fantasy.
While thinking that, I relied on the map and arrived at a solemn temple...tem...ple...?
The Aren and Ordis temples I saw on the way here were of fantasy standard y'know?
Class: Priest Lv13

BL? No no, I'm normal! But what is this 'God Blend' I wonder?
"You're Nobusada-san right. Umm, I'm the priest who is in charge of this temple, my name is Bell. I will confirm once again, you can't undo it once you've baptized once, are you really sure about it?"
Bell, why'd you need to make doubly sure that far?
"It's fine, but why are you being so timid about this?"
Bell begins to talk timidly.
"There have been only three adventurers in total who received baptisms ever since I got assigned here three years ago. Even if you complain later, it's not possible to cancel the baptism once it's done you knoow. The one before you was the daughter of the former duke-sama, but she decided on it on her own. I was severely reprimanded by the people in duke-sama circle for not explaining enough...."
Uwaaah, that's.... Guess it's a miracle enough that the temple remains. The biggest problem is that he did the baptism, which can't be changed once done, to an arbitrary whim of the duke's daughter. When you're a duke, you'd probably associate with each temple, and temples must have power struggles among them too.
"I choose Levelitt-sama since I think she fits the best for my objectives. Thus, please proceed with the baptism."
"I understand. Then first, we would like to ask 2000 mani as a donation."
I took out two silver coins from the rucksack and gave it to Bell.
"Thank you. With this I can repair the leaking roof.... no no, it's nothiing."
Hey hey. Your inner voice is leaking out big time. I'll give him the remaining fruits I have when I'm leaving. He looks like an abandoned puppy somehow.
"Then please stand before the idol. And kneel with one knee and close your eyes pleaase."
"One among the six pillar gods, goddess of growth and talent, Levelitt-sama. Give your blessing and protection to this the new believer.
Oh, he looks like a priest for once, I can even see something that looks like a halo. I don't understand what the heck 'grow righteously' even means, but I'll tread the road I believe in.
"I swear."
"Do you swear to not entrust the power you obtain from growing to evil and wield them righteously?"
"I swear."
Isn't he shining brighter now!? Is this the state called trance?
"『....Would you swear to be eternally loyal and donating toward the righteous, noble and beautiful Levelitt-sama?』"
"Wait a minute, oy!"
"『A a, test. She sells seashell aiueOH! Hello, it's the star of hope for 23,000 people in the countrywide, Levelitt-sama here.』」
"Eeh"
"『You over there, don't make that disappointed face!』"
"Ventriloquism? Some kind of illusion?"
"『The one borrowing this child's body and talking is Levelitt without a doubt you know. I mean, I don't have much time to do this God Blend, so I'd appreciate it if you can make it short! This child's mind would be deleted if it passed three minutes time you see.』"
"From which Nebula you came from anyway. Why'd you do such a dangerous thing."
"『Well y'see, you looked like you'd become an extra-large singularity when I was watching from above, I thought it was amusing, tehee.』"
So she really did mark me!?
"Amusing hey.... I mean that singularity thing sounds ominous!?"
Who'd have thought that Goddess Levelitt's personality would be like this! I'm quickly regretting hurrying the baptism at this rate. I was in daze since things progressed too quickly.
"『So then, Nobusada-kun, won't you become my apostle?』"
"But I refuse!"
"『Instant reply!? Can't you think about it a bit more? This onee-san is sad.』"
"I'd appreciate if a goddess who's been around since the beginning of the world not calls herself onee-san thank you!"
"『So cruel, Levelitt-sama is eternally 20 you knoow.』"
"I'm not fit to be this apostle or such."
"『So you're just going to ignore my age are you. You'd get many privileges when you become my apostle. I'm good at improving growth you know. You should just nod while thinking you're being tricked 'k.』"
Goddess Levelitt coaxes me through Bell body. However, my mind won't waver cause I know the body is of a man!
"So I'm still being tricked in the end? I've nothing to lose not getting growth improvement."
"『You're terribly frank. Muu, I don't have much time left, this is it for today. I won't give up okay. The creator god told me that it'd be the end of the match if I did.』"
"Creator god, what are you teaching her...."
"『For now, think about the apostle matter more cause you'll get many privileges okay. Don't forget about occasional offering to the temple. Levelitt-sama likes her sweets you know. Dorayaki particularly, that's her favorite.』"
"Yea yea, Doza*mon."
"『You got the part that needs retorting all wroong. And that's the parody drowning one~. Well, see you again adios!』"
Levelitt-sama left after talking like a storm. Un, any respect I have is already disappearing like dust in the wind. She does seem interesting though.
Bell looked dumbfounded somehow looking at it. Huh? Was this not a baptism?

【Levelitt Apostle (Temporary License)】
That no-goddess.... I'm thankful for the Blessing, but the (Temporary License) is most baffling. Just how far did that no-goddess marked me down.
"....Many things happened, but the baptism is now over."
"Was baptism always like this?"
"....No, this was a first for me too. Nobusada might be especially favored by Levelitt-sama."
You got it right, and I got some weird thing added to me without my permission you know. Not gonna tell anyone though.
Ignition magic - Pom
Springwater magic - Water
Etc, it seems to consume little mana and plenty of people could use it. These magic are plain but extremely convenient.
I shove the matter about Goddess Leve to the corner most region of my brain and head to the guild. I should still be able to make it to accept some quest at this hour. I feel like doing some quests devotedly right now.
