Chapter 45: Chapter 45 - Religions
"I need your help with taking care of this money." I said it in a way that I did not realize how wrong it sounded.
Dogsons left eye twitched as he looked at the huge bag of coins not knowing that it was filled with gold but knew that it was a lot of money. Dogson couldn\'t truly understand what this situation needed him to do but still said the only thing that came to his mind.
"Aah... Sir Do you want my help hid- No concealing this in a convenient and \'aah what was it again\' yes, a very convenient and hard place to perceive thi- this item." Dogson said in a way that he knew sounded so wrong but still for a gold coin he was about to do much worse.
"What! No! I don\'t want you to HIDE my money, I just want you to help me spend it.
After saying that I slowly realized how wrong of me it was to phrase it like that. But before I could correct it Dogson already spoke.
"Oh! Ooooh! yes yes I get what the young master is talking about now." He spoke in a way that spoke of how far he had thought of what I wrong fully said.
"No no I didn\'t mean i-"
"You want me to help you find some VERY honest cops for your personal needs right?"
"What! No I didn-" I wanted to correct myself but again Dogson interrupted me.
"It\'ll be tough to find the ones who are suitable for it but" he mischievously poked the bag of coins and said "I\'m sure that with the right amount... Even the worst of the worst could be brought on to the right side." Dogson finished his words with a shrewd business like smile.
I was stumped. The officer I thought was a man of justice and all that children bulls*it turned out to be a real bulls*it. I was going to reprimand for saying things like this but a curious thought came to my head.
What If... What if what he said could actually be true. If he could actually do what he intends to do than it might be useful.
Yes... it will be very useful if I were to have some corrupt cops in my pocket. They will be able to help me with various things that legally could not be achieved by many.
But... let\'s stop that thought for now and get back to the real reason why I even came here for, We can come back to that situation later... yes later.
I look at Dogson with a no nonsense look and say. "Dude your thinking to far ahead, I wasn\'t talking about that thing."
He face became a \'Ooh\' face and he became quiet not saying anything to defend himself.
After a moment of awkward silence in which we were silently looking at each other with dark eyes, I finally say "Now listen to what I say CLEARLY then you can speak." He nodded and still stayed quiet.
Pushing the bag of coins towards him I said "I want you to donate this to a nearby church or orphanage in my name."
"Aah... but sir isn\'t that something you yourself can do easily." Dogson asked confused at my request.
"What I can or can\'t do isn\'t something you need to be concerned with yourself." I told him with a serious look.
He solemnly nodded as he slowly stepped away.
"\'Sigh\' Aaah, You see there are many people in this worl- Planet that might want to hurt me because of my obvious upbringing, so I need to be careful in no matter what it is that I am dealing with, even if it\'s something as simple as donating money to a church."
"Umhmm I see what your talking about young master, indeed you would have people after you"
Don\'t phrase it like I am a criminal who is being chased by debt collectors.
"So can you do this for me?"
"Of course young master it\'s just a small matter and anyway this is a very good deed, ill be glad to do something like this."
I nodded at him and as I was about to get up and leave he said something that stopped my action.
"Which church do you want me to donate it to?"
"Well- Which ever one you like?"
"Ooh I meant which religion did you believe in young master, feeling the amount, the god of your religion would be very proud of you."
Religions?
How many religions are there? It\'s not that I didn\'t have multiple religion back in my old world, it\'s just I was always kind of an atheist when ever it came on to religion.
And I didn\'t even care to know about any religion in this world as well. The only thing I ever have and only believe in will be the GOD who reincarnated me. So I didn\'t give much importance to any other religion.
Well there is one other being I believe in but that particular deity is currently targeting me for unknown reasons.
But on to the matter at hand what should I say. Wait! My mothe- That Bi*ch once told me of a god she prayed to. Now which one was it, come on think, think.
Wait a second! Who said that I Had to donate money to a religion that I must believe in. No it doesn\'t so I can even give it to another religion which might even be the rival of the god I believe in.
I love me Free Country.
"How many are believed around here?"
"Well There\'s two official and one unofficial one. First is the most populated one by many \'The Sun God, SOL\' and the second one is \'The God of Strength, Redna\'"
"What is the unofficial one."
"Oh, That\'s \'God of Peace, Vagner\'"
"Why is it a Unofficial one?"
"It has a few reasons but the most common ones are that it had was that it just started not too long ago, only a few centuries. And their believers were a little hectic in the past years as well."
"How hectic?"
"They killed quite a number of higher ups in the past and so because of that they were branded as unofficial and close to getting banned as well."
"Oh... okay. Alright divide the money and give to both the churches then. I\'ll leave you and Dogson... about the offer you gave me a while back... I\'ll remember it."
Dogson gave a nasty smile and said "Of course young master if you ever need any help good old Dogson is always here for you."
"And you take care not to get robbed while trying to get that money to the church."
Dogson took the bag of coins and started playing with it while saying "Why would I get robbed for a few coi-" As he was about to underestimate the value of the coins even more, the bag suddenly fell from his hand and a few gold coins fell out.
As Dogson looked at the astronomical amount of money in front of him, he said to himself.
"F*********ck"
