>I also make sure to hear the answer to this question.

What is he going to say? What does he want? What is he after? Is he looking for me? Depending on his answer, we might have to stop them from going back.
This option is terrible, and I don’t want that to happen, but we have to be ready to make decisions like this for the sake of our future.

I put my hands together like I’m praying and wait for his answer.

“I have been tasked with the mission to find the real miko and bring her back with me to my country.”

I despair as I listen to his answer.
I start thinking we might not be able to let him go back alive, but he continues.

“But I have no intention of going through with this.
I am a servant of god, so I do not want to take any action that goes against the will of the one loved by god.
The miko may not want to be taken to the temple, and if that is the case, I will not take her.
As a servant of god, I will follow the miko’s wishes, as god intends.”

Says the priest.

He said ‘the real miko’, which means that place he calls the temple decided my sister isn’t the real miko.
I don’t know what made him come search all the way out here, but I think he’s looking for me.

He also says that he was given a mission, but doesn’t want to go through with it, while looking straight at Freinet.

“I want to serve the miko, and stand by her side as her priest.
So please, if you know her whereabouts, tell me where she is.
I will not cause her any harm or displease her in any way.
I devote everything, including my life, to the miko.”

It looks like the priest is convinced that Freinet knows me… But that whole thing about devoting everything including his life is heavy.
Something that heavy is scary, and it’s hard to accept.

“I see…”

Freinet nods and looks my way.
I step forward, along with the other people that were hiding with me.

The swordsman’s face becomes stiff, but the priest’s face lightens up, and he runs towards me.

“It is such an honor to meet you, miss miko!”

He yells without hesitating.

—Girl and priest – Part one

(The girl that is probably the miko appears before the priest, whoyells with full conviction that she is the miko.)
