Hmm, I presume these gifts they had given to you are bribes?

I imagine they think it would be clever to make you their ally and use your talent to promote their religion?

Ugh!

What are bribes?

It means giving you presents while asking you for favors.

Hmm, I couldn't fool you, Sanae-san.

Certainly, it is true that we were expecting something in return for the gifts we had given.

Something like a warm reception, I believe.

Eh~ I dunno anything about that~

Stop it, that kind of voice is unbecoming for someone of your age, priest.

This..? This doesn't have anything to do with age...!

Sanae-san has already deduced everything about this.

It's nothing, I don't blame you.

If it's not too much to ask, I also could use some help.

I wanted some help with this farm work.

Oh! A Realist!

We will be glad to help.

Then, we will lend you some of the clothes from our shrine, so your clothes won't get dirty.

Much appreciated.

Okay!

Wait just a second!
