Gossip was indeed like a drug.
Of course, I wasn't the only one who was intoxicated by it.
As the days would pass, Ito Souta's reputation would eventually go down the drain. Assuming that the material that made up this content was the same as that of the Earth's, his reputation would sink until it would reach the Earth's inner core.
'What a piece of sh*t.'
Even before four days had come and passed, he went from being a respectable figure to being a monster who did not hesitate to trade slaves, organs, and the like, the type of cold blooded man who would sacrifice others' lives in order to maintain his power.
The probability that he tried to assassinate me in order to cover up his operations helped the rumors grow faster.
'Of course.
A few people did not believe in this fresh gossip, but that didn't matter. I knew most of them didn't care enough to inquire if the rumors were really true or not.
'That's because it distracts them from their own, boring lives.'
"This already seems like a proper witch hunt. Puhahaha."
Rather than talking to those who actually held seats of power, I chose to talk to the noble ladies instead. This was because, once they returned to their respective homes, they would talk about Ito Souta's stories all day long on my behalf.
It was like finding workers without having to worry about their salaries.
Although our enemies were sending out their own people to clarify the rumors, it was too late. No matter how much they defended themselves, the public's eyes have already gone cold.
If these were modern times, Ito Souta would probably have already held a press conference to prove his innocence. However, since he was still being investigated 'according to the procedure,' his actions were still limited, and thus, it would not be possible for him to.
On the contrary, I continued to roam around, enjoying my freedom.
Of course, the Pope's personnel who were quickly working on removing Ito Souta from their roster also proved to be valuable customers.
"Ahhh. Vice-Diocese Glen, it's so nice to see you again."
"Haha. It's been only a day."
"Hahaha. I always want to meet you. It is a very beneficial and enjoyable time for me to meet with you in order to talk about God."
"Lee Kiyoung, you are flattering this insignificant priest.Oh, I have someone to introduce to you today. Have you ever heard of Bishop Jessica...?"
"Of course. I guess today I can get closer to the Benigore's Goddess."
"First, you have to get close to Bishop Jessica. She is really looking forward to
it."
"Ah, I can already feel the pressure..."
"Hahaha."
Today I was meeting Vice-Diocese Glen, and tomorrow I would meet with Bishop Jessica. After that, I would immediately scout for more people.
"Ah, Kiyoung-ssi is here!"
"I came running because I wanted to see Bishop Jessica."
"We decided that you would call me Jessica when there's only the two of us."
"Ah. We did, right?"
"Yes. Today, let's go together to meet the Archbishop. I told Archbishop Andrine about Kiyoung-ssi, and she definitely wants to meet you."
