With disdain

As you step closer to the gate, the superior guard speaks. "Halt! State your business!" His voice sounds like someone who grew up poor, but desperately tried to hide his accent in hope of picking up a different one. You halt, turning to him with a well-meaning, genuine smile on your face. The gesture is not reciprocated. "Hello! My name is Eleanor. I am a paladin of Lucretia from River's Edge-." At the mention of your faith, the younger guard spits on the floor. Ignoring this slight, though your holy heart fills with fury, you continue. "and I am here for help heal your town's woes, be they monster or sickness, as my holy oath and pilgrimage dictates." While the older man considers your words, the younger guard pipes up. "I've heard about this faith, captain sir. I heard it was a faith full of adulterers and whores, and that their 'pilgrimage'" He puts a cruel emphasis on the word. "Is just an excuse to travel around and fuck everything that moves!"

You turn a furious gaze on him, and momentarily consider drawing your sword to answer this slight on your faith's honour. But you remember that these are guards. And if you want to help this village, becoming an outlaw is probably not the way to go. You relax keep your hands down by your sides, and swallow your anger and turn to the older gentleman. The captain opens his mouth. "Silence, Matteau." He says, though a grin has passed over his face at Matteau's words, suspicion and derision quickly returns. "I don't trust you fanatical religious folk. Don't get into any trouble, and we won't need to put you in the pillory." He points over his shoulder, indicating a raised platform just behind the walls, and near the town square. On it, there was a pillory, with rather suspicious looking stains on both the wood itself and the ground. "Though, if what Matteau just said is true, I'll be seeing you in the brothel come nightfall!" He jests, and his colleague lets out a burst of laughter. But with that, the spears were raised, and your path inside was open.

This was nearly too much for you though! These two guards had just insulted your faith! How do you react to this insult?
