“A man of wisdom is slow to anger, and it is his honor to overlook an offense.”
“Forgiving your own mistakes is also an honor you grant yourself.
Forgiving your own anger is a form of that.”
Ever since becoming Amakusa Shirou, he had started maintaining his image at all times.
He was a five-star now!
A handsome young priest, a young priest with a magnetic voice, so he had to maintain his image!
Therefore, whenever he had free time, he would read the Bible and even explain its contents to the elderly people living around the church.
All of these were things Amakusa normally did, and of course, they were also part of his duties.
He used to think these things were pointless and merely something to show off with, but now they actually felt pretty useful.
Especially now, they could be used to calm his mood—to soothe his feelings after performing a 10x gacha and getting nine Black Keys.
Of course, the most important thing was the guaranteed tenth gold card.
That was the main reason he could keep his spirits up.
Heaven’s Feel, also known as the Holy Grail.
Unlike the conditions in the game back then, this FGO system did not use the same gacha system as the FGO game.
Because there were no things such as Critical Stars or NP in the real world, many Craft Essences (Ces) did not exist here.
This caused the probability of weapon-type Ces such as Black Key appearing to increase drastically.
Amakusa could only resign himself to his fate after pulling Black Keys.
But Heaven’s Feel was different.
In the game, Heaven’s Feel increased Noble Phantasm Damage by 40%.
Here, however, its ability was different—it provided an unlimited supply of Mana!
Although the effect was very simple and straightforward, it was incredibly, incredibly practical, because Amakusa himself did not have much Mana!
This CE was an extremely good one for Amakusa.
Even if he had not gotten a gold five-star Servant card, he could still accept this.
After all, as a pure-blooded African who already possessed one five-star Servant, that alone was enough to make him very happy.
Now, with the most practical CE for his current stage on top of that, this was something he could truly accept.
Especially his Noble Phantasm.
His Noble Phantasm was an ability-type Noble Phantasm.
Without sufficient Mana, he could not even activate it.
“Senpai, if possible, you should equip it right away.
That way, Senpai won’t have to worry about running out of Mana anymore.”
As Amakusa’s assistant, Mash understood that after seeing him pull Heaven’s Feel, the other party’s mood had already risen from the absolute low of nine Black Keys to happiness.
“Um, I’ll equip it right away.”
The equipment was done through the system.
Unlike the FGO system in the game, Amakusa could equip several Ces at once.
The nine Black Keys he had obtained from the previous 10x gacha, aside from the five-star Amakusa Shirou himself, had all been equipped onto his body.
With just a wave of his hand, they could immediately appear in his grasp.
As a priest, it was perfectly normal to have a Black Key in his hand, right?
Besides, this thing was a consumable item.
In other words, whenever he threw a Black Key, its quantity would decrease by one.
Therefore, this 10x gacha could be considered an increase in the stock of Black Key weapons he had on hand.
After equipping Heaven’s Feel in his own slot, Amakusa immediately felt power flowing through his entire body.
He could eat three bowls of rice!
Although being able to eat three bowls of rice had absolutely nothing to do with having abundant Mana.
“I have to start collecting Saint Quartz again.
I spend an entire month collecting them, only for them to disappear in an instant.”
It was true that he had obtained something good, but the feeling of suddenly having empty hands was still rather unpleasant.
“That’s why Senpai has to keep working hard and keep collecting Saint Quartz.
After all, we can’t top up right now.”
Mash encouraged him gently from beside him, making Amakusa feel as though his entire body had become energized once again.
“Yes, I have to keep working hard!
I’ve already obtained two five-star cards, and there will be even more five-stars waiting for me!
For the sake of my dream, I’ll keep working hard until the day my dream comes true!”
As if he had truly been possessed by Amakusa, he smiled with an exceptionally gentle expression, while hope shone brightly in his eyes.
“In that case, Senpai, let’s work on this week’s weekly missions next!”
Amid his excitement, Mash also refreshed the weekly mission list.
Last week’s weekly missions had already expired, and now that it was Monday, it was time to refresh the list with new missions.
Amakusa shifted his gaze toward Mash, waiting for her to give him the new weekly missions.
“Senpai, the first week was relatively easy.
They were all check-in missions.
The second week was the same.
During the third and fourth weeks, because of Senpai’s identity, the system assigned missions for you to guide the people living around the church as a priest, and all of them were completed smoothly.
Now, starting from the fifth week, the missions have begun to change.”
“Change into what kind of missions?”
“Because Senpai’s identity is that of a church priest in this neighborhood, this week’s mission is for Senpai to guide people toward the path of light.”
“What?”
Amakusa was somewhat unsure whether he had heard correctly.
Guide people toward the path of light?
What kind of mission was this?
“There are six missions in total.
The seventh is the same as before: it will be completed automatically once the six missions have been completed.
Each of the six missions requires you to guide a different person toward the path of light.
There’s a child, a teenager, a young adult, an elderly person, and even a criminal and a police officer.”
“These missions…
the change is really quite drastic.”
Amakusa could still accept the first four targets.
But when it came to the final two, he felt that the range had become a little too broad.
But since there were no EXP quests (EM/EXP card quests) or Training Grounds (skill mat quests) for him to farm here, it was understandable for the weekly missions to be this strange.
Mash also agreed with Amakusa.
“That’s right, Senpai.
The missions this time suddenly feel rather dangerous.”
“It’s not a matter of danger.
With Mash here, plus my own abilities now, I don’t consider this dangerous at all.
It’s just that the difficulty level is rather high.
This is the first time I’ve ever heard of missions involving guiding both criminals and police officers toward the path of light.”
A faint smile returned to his face as Amakusa slowly shook his head.
BANG!
The large door was suddenly shoved open.
Stan Lee, who had left not long ago, suddenly came running inside.
He hurriedly shut the door, then leaned against it while gasping for breath.
“Mr.
Stan Lee, what happened?
Why are you so panicked?”
Putting the mission issue aside for the moment, Amakusa walked toward the large door and asked Stan Lee, who was still leaning against it.
“Oh, Pastor Amakusa, thank goodness you’re here!
I was scared half to death just now!”
The moment Stan Lee saw Amakusa, he happily walked toward him, recounting what had happened with great emotion as he approached.
“I was a little late getting home just now, and then I happened to run into two drug dealers who were making a deal.
They happened to notice me, so they tried to kill me.
I ran all the way here!”
“People were making a drug deal in Brooklyn in broad daylight?”
Amakusa was somewhat surprised.
This was Brooklyn.
Was security really this bad?
“How should I know!
All I know is that they pulled out guns and wanted to kill me!”
Stan Lee ran to Amakusa’s side and even hid behind him for protection.
Because not long afterward, the large door was kicked open again.
Two young Black men burst in from outside, each gripping a pistol in his hand.
It was obvious that they were the drug dealers Stan Lee had been talking about.
To make the famous Stan Lee this panicked, these two people seemed to be the most terrifying individuals in the world.
“Senpai, the mission trigger happened to activate!”
“Is it the criminal mission?”
“No, the police one.”
“Huh?”
Amakusa was somewhat stunned.
He had never expected that the two Black youths he had assumed were drug dealers were actually not criminals, but police officers.
