152 – Sometimes these aren’t bad

“The Empire will not forget the Church’s favor.”

The saintess and the others stand on top of the moving magic circle while being sent off by the corps.

Beside him, of course, Kyle, who came with him, was also seated.

“Saintess.”

As he received the greeting from the corps commander, he slightly parted his lips.

“I heard you are going to the church.”

“Yes. I have to tell His Holiness the before and after of the incident.”

“I’m going to visit the church, too, will it be okay?”

“A church? They don’t go straight to the academy.”

Absence is something that must be avoided for academy students.

In addition, next week is the final exam, so it is good to listen to the lecture the week before.

So when I asked her, Kyle shrugged her shoulders once and replied.

“It doesn’t matter that I’m absent anyway, I just want to talk a little more with the saintess.”

For the second reason, the saintess rolls her eyes.

Anyway, he seemed to like that answer quite a bit.

“Hmmm. Still, shouldn’t the absence be reduced by one more day?”

She tries to hide her true intentions and asks again in a coy tone.

In reality, Kyle said, ‘Is that so? Since the saintess is so concerned about it, it would be right for her to go to the academy. She’s going to visit the church next time,’ she said, anxiously.

“It’s okay. I will also go to the church with the saintess.”

Of course, Kyle had no intention of saying such a thing casually.

The saintess approached her first, so if she doesn’t want to push her away, it’s only right that she treats her well.

Above all else, the fact that she is low pressure catches her eye.

“I will move.”

The wizards waiting in advance start Jin.

Soon, a brilliant group of lights began to surround Kyle and the saintess and the others.

“Whoa. This is the famous moving magic circle that the Empire is proud of.”

Old man Neil, who has been quiet so far, finally utters a word.

Is it surprising that something unimaginable happened in John Nassen?

He looked at the magic circle as if it were strange, and then he finally said.

“But in this way, no one would think of walking or running on two legs. The youngest boy.”

“Can’t help it? Humans don’t always seek convenience.”

“I understand, but… Mmm. I hope you don’t see John Nassen.”

Can you see it? It’s a place where you can’t even survive on alcohol and cigarettes.

As soon as this kind of magical selfishness enters, it will be erased as evil.

He said he dared to get rid of a good distance with aerobic, lower body, and endurance exercises.

You can walk short distances and run long distances, but why did you make something like this?

*

Saaa….

The lights gradually subside, and instead of the corps camp, a different landscape comes into view.

The heart of the empire, the ecliptic. A moving magic circle located on the outskirts of that place.

“Welcome back. Holy Maiden.”

The paladins who have been waiting in advance greet the saintess all at once.

In addition, people from the Empire welcome those who have worked hard for the Empire.

“I would like to express my gratitude to the saintess for her hard work. A report has been received from the Western Corps. I heard that she healed all the seriously injured. All of the empire will remember the grace of the saintess and the church.”

At that, the saintess waved her hand, saying that it was nothing.

She ran a long way and saved those who were dying, so she can afford to assert herself a little.

The saintess didn’t look like that at all.

Yes, of course our saintess. You are the light itself. Cancer cancer.

In front of Kyle, who applauds inwardly while thinking, several characters approach.

The way he was armed and the seal on his breastplate.

All those approaching over there were none other than knights belonging to the imperial family.

“Kyle.”

“Welcome home.”

When I said that it seems strangely familiar, this is a face everyone has seen at least once.

The people who were standing next to Julika were looking very nervous.

So, even though they were in the top 10, those knights of the imperial family who acted as direct escorts for the first time were imperial family members.

“It’s nice to see you guys here.”

“Yes?”

“Did the 5th Princess tell you to bring me right away?”

At Kyle’s question, the imperial knights nodded in embarrassment.

This is Kyle, who has just returned from the west.

I’m not even surprised. He also had battles with monsters.

Whether or not you worked hard during the process, that’s not the point.

It is important that you rolled up your sleeves and helped with the affairs of the empire.

It’s quite rude to bring someone like that out of the blue.

There’s no way the knights don’t know that. However, it was the princess’s order, so it was only followed.

“Um.”

Originally, he would have thought of the authority of the imperial family and pretended to be unable to win.

He’s not someone you can avoid by avoiding the princess anyway.

It would have been better to meet quickly and prevent them from coming back later.

But today, unfortunately, I had no intention of doing that.

“I’m sorry, everyone. I have a prior appointment.”

“Yes? If you say it’s a promise….”

“I plan to visit the church. With the saintess.”

It was a solution to the current situation that Kyle came up with in a short moment.

A magical word that can block even the princess’s orders. Church, and a saint.

First of all, the church is, without a doubt, an excuse that is close to perfect.

There is no one other than the emperor who can unilaterally break the previous agreement with the church.

A natural choice for a relationship with a church that can be said to be a kind of partner.

Even Yulica, a direct descendant of the imperial family and one of the top 10 members of the empire, could not ignore the church.

“He’s going to the church.”

“Yes.”

“With the saintess… you mean?”

“Yes.”

There are two reasons why I dare to mention the part “With the saint” Following the church.

One is that Yulica and the saintess are friends, so she won’t be able to break that promise.

The other is to deliberately show her saintess.

Actually, the imperial knights also had no intention of recommending Kyle again.

Not only is it an unwritten rule not to recklessly break a prior agreement with the church.

Didn’t they say that the 5th princess and the saint who gave orders to them were friends?

Then it seems that the princess decided that she would no longer intervene in her friend’s promise.

“If you heard about my situation, the princess wouldn’t criticize you either. Rather, you should understand that it is unavoidable.”

“Ummm… I bet it is. You wouldn’t have known that there would be a prior agreement with the church….”

“I will see the princess as soon as the church business is over.”

“If you do, I would be extremely grateful. If you do, I will go.”

They were the imperial knights who retreated without saying anything else.

Although it was a persuasion with grounds that had no choice but to accept it.

The fact that the persuasive person is none other than Kyle also played an important role.

Regardless of whether he has a mild personality or not of chauvinism, he is John Nassen.

‘Well then.’

Leaving behind the imperial knights who were moving away, I turned around.

“Let’s go, saintess.”

“Are you okay?”

“You mean the princess?”

“Yes. It’s okay to go to church, but… As far as what can be said….”

“That’s right. Since I talked to the saintess, it was a prior promise, so what?”

The saintess, who blinked, said in a small voice, “That’s right.”

Looking at the slight reaction, it was clear that he had a good look even though he didn’t show it.

Since it started because of the princess, I thought the best way to solve it was with the princess.

I feel like I’m being eaten more reliably than I thought. Hasn’t your expression loosened up a bit already?

“And if I go to see the princess, it’s too obvious what I have to do anyway.”

“Are you begging me to fight?”

“Yes. How do you tease It’s a word I give only to the saintess, but it’s annoying to the point of dying.”

“Shh! You can’t talk like that.”

At first glance, it sounds like being scolded for being rude.

However, the saintess’ expression was not at all that of someone scolding her.

The smile she couldn’t erase from her mouth was clear evidence of that.

“It’s fortunate that I went to the church with the saintess. You can escape from the princess’s clutches.”

“So you shouldn’t say things like that, Brother Kyle.”

“Okay. However, it is true that it is really annoying.”

Ah, by the way, this is not one of the tricks to ease the saintess’ heart.

She just let her true heart come out naturally.

*

Familiar faces. Yes, those are the escort knights by the 5th princess.

… Wait a minute. Their presence here means only one thing.

“Did the 5th Princess tell you to bring me right away?”

The imperial knights nodded at Brother Kyle’s words.

Looking at that scene, I can’t help but sigh. I forcibly endured it.

Before I climbed the moving magic circle, Brother Kyle asked me to go with him to the church.

I wanted to make that suggestion first, but I couldn’t.

You don’t know how grateful I am to Brother Kyle for stepping up.

But…. It’s just a temporary schedule anyway.

The fact that the princess even sent her knights means that she strongly wants to meet Brother Kyle.

When I think of that, the words I heard earlier come to mind.

She is Brother Kyle’s father who said he liked the princess. Baron John Nassen.

I definitely felt it from the words about how the wedding is going.

That you are thinking positively. That the princess likes her.

My father, no one else, said that.

In that case, wouldn’t Brother Kyle have no choice but to pay attention?

Yes. From Brother Kyle’s point of view, you have no choice but to do so.

So, even if you accept the princess’ request to meet like now….

“I’m sorry, everyone. I have a prior appointment. I plan to visit the church. With the saintess.”

I thought I heard it wrong. But, it wasn’t.

With those words, Brother Kyle sent the knights away.

Considering that the person who sent them was the princess, this was unexpected.

Of course I thought you were going to meet the princess.

She thought that whether she liked the meeting or not, she would have no choice but to do so.

Why am I laughing when I see her sternly refusing?

Was I such a bad person? I think.

I can never let other people’s misfortune become my happiness. Learned so

I shouldn’t be happy. I can’t shake it. Why are you doing this?

At the moment, without even realizing it, a question popped out meaning why did you do that?

Then Brother Kyle replied with a smile.

“And if I go to see the princess, it’s too obvious what to do anyway. How do you tease It’s a word I give only to the saintess, but it’s annoying to the point of dying.”

I almost laughed at Brother Kyle’s answer.

Ah, no. It shouldn’t be like this. It’s disrespectful to the princess.

You can’t laugh. And it doesn’t even make me feel better. It’s bad

By the way… But, why?

The words of Brother Kyle, who rejected the princess’s request and said that he would go to the church with me.

Why does it keep floating around in the corner of my heart?

“It is so nice to go with the saintess again.”

“… Me too.”

I moved my lips several times, I could barely answer that to Brother Kyle.
