　When I woke up, the familiar goddess officer opened her eyes wide and sounded panicked.

　With that, the goddess smiled happily and offered me a glass of water.

　I wondered why I had been asleep. I remembered that there were whispers in the country that a god child might have appeared. Every possible god that exists in this world. Those who believe in God correctly can hear the voice of God. In our country, until eight years ago, there existed a righteous one who hears the voice of God. But that person is gone.

　And in a situation where there is no one in this country who can correctly hear God's voice, there is a suspicion that the Divine Son may have appeared in this world. A dozen priests, including myself, had to somehow find the Divine Child-sama, and we managed to hear the voice of God by performing a ritual that was said to possibly lead to death. Before losing consciousness, we gave them the information we had been given about the divine child-sama. And then, remembering that much, I raised my voice.

Kamiko-sama?"

"Kamiko-sama is ......, were you able to welcome her?"

Yes, I was able to welcome you.

　I was relieved at the words of the priestess.

　Then I heard that I was the first one to wake up among those who performed the ritual and that the other priestesses had not even woken up yet. And I was told that I had been lying in bed for four months. I was relieved to hear that no one had died.

　I am glad that I was able to wake up, because I had forced myself to do the act of listening to God's voice.

　I cannot help but feel a sense of repentance for having allowed Kamiko-sama to live in a remote village for eight years because there was no one there to hear God's voice. If we had been able to hear God's voice correctly, we would have been able to welcome the divine child as soon as he was born.

　As I was still in such a state of mind, the goddess said, "I will bring you some food," and left the room.

　Kamiko-sama.

　Among all the information conveyed to me at once by the oracle, I was able to catch a dim glimpse of the divine child-sama for a moment.

　I could not see her clearly, but I could see her. Recalling that image, I thought about the actual Kamiko-sama.

　Oh, Kamiko-sama.

　What kind of person is He? I cannot help but feel irrepressibly happy at the miracle that God the Son-sama exists, and at the fact that I am living in that time period.

　I want to see God the Son as soon as possible. I cannot help but want to take action for His Divine Son.

　Since then, a number of people have visited me. They were all pleased with my awakening and took care of me.

　I had never been approached by high priests before I had the great task of listening to the oracle. However, they showed up to me because I had accomplished that great task. I have some mixed feelings about that, but that is okay. I was able to welcome Kamiko-sama.

　I told them right then and there that I wanted to meet with the Divine Child-sama.

　And three days later, I was ready to stand before the Divine Child-sama.

　I was told that Kamiko-sama was not ready to unveil me yet. However, it is said that word has spread among the commoners that she is already a beautiful woman.

　I was furious that they had not been able to properly educate the young priestess, even though they had just welcomed her into their home. I was a lowly priest and had no contact with those in the upper echelons, but I wondered if that was the policy of the upper echelons. I also had the frightening thought that they might be sloppy in their education of Kamiko-sama, and that they might be thinking of using her as a pawn in their fearful scheme.

　It is a matter of course that we have to make it possible for the divine child to live out his or her days in peace, and I feel that we must give him or her a proper place to learn. I believe that the divine child, being the divine child that he or she is, must properly understand his or her position and so on. This is my ideal.

　I am also troubled by the story of a woman who was a teacher for a priestess who was expelled because she behaved in a way that was unbecoming of a priestess. He also said that misfortune has come to this place because of the woman who was his educator, but I still can't sort out what is happening while I am sleeping.

　For the time being, I will talk to Kamiko-sama sincerely when I am able to meet her.

　I certainly thought so at that time, while I was on my way to see Kamiko-sama.

　But when I stood in front of Him and looked at Him, those thoughts of mine were blown away.

　Then I went to my room in the immigration area of the priests, which is built adjacent to the Great Temple.

　I was confused.

　I was really looking forward to meeting Kamiko-sama, although I was anxious after hearing the rumors about her. I would get to meet Kamiko-sama. My heart was excited to meet the beloved of God.

　But no.

　I thought so.

　Because in the oracle that I saw only for a moment, the color of Goddess Kamiko's hair was not gold. It was dim, but I could see no small amount of color. Her hair was not that beautiful golden color. If anything, it was a more subdued color. It was brown, the kind of hair color that could be found anywhere.

　I wondered if it was possible that the figure I saw for a moment in the oracle was a mistake. Could it be that my memory is wrong ......? No, I don't think so. Then, what does it mean? My mind is still confused, but I am thinking about the possibilities.

　Kamiko-sama dyes her hair ...... No, this is not likely. Hair dye is expensive, and it is unlikely to be available in a remote village. In the first place, hair dye comes off when the hair is washed, so there is no way that the caretaker of the godchild does not know the color of the godchild's natural hair.

　It is a possibility that I don't even want to think about, but isn't it possible that the godchild who is now in this daijin-den is not the real godchild? And I think that after seeing the Kamiko-sama with golden hair.

　...... I shudder at the thought of the possibility that perhaps the Kamiko-sama is not the real Kamiko-sama.
