186 – One day allowed, cheating day

A day is so long. It seems to be longer than when I went through hell training.

But the end is in sight soon. One more person and the day’s work is over.

‘I never dreamed I would be this tired.’

The body is not the problem, the mind is the problem.

I pretended to be calm while meeting Tisha, Elgar, and even the princess.

But Kyle, knowingly and unknowingly, was nervous, had expectations, and did it all.

Fortunately, the last one is a saint. She is a saint without a doubt.

I wonder if it’s okay to relax just a little bit.

‘… No Tisha is like that, so she has to keep in mind the possibility of a sudden change at any time.’

Who is the saintess’s friend? She is the princess who has always been on top of herself.

It won’t change easily because they have different personalities in the first place, but that doesn’t mean they haven’t been affected at all.

You have to keep your mind straight. It’s because it’s a way to get hurt more when you’re doing an easy exercise.

“Be alert.”

Didn’t she even say that before she broke up with the princess?

There’s no way, but she’s a saint, so be careful.

The moment you let your guard down and give it a chance, the other three girls will also roll their eyes.

“Saint. You are here.”

Without relaxing her tension, she headed to the place where the saintess was waiting.

The saintess, who was looking at the setting sun, felt her presence and turned her body.

“Are you here? Oh. You look tired, Brother Kyle.”

At that, Kyle sighed.

Until she became the princess, she was well in control so that her true feelings would not be revealed.

Standing in front of the saintess, it seemed that I was freed in an instant without even realizing it.

She told herself over and over again to be nervous, but to think that she would dull it so quickly.

She beats herself up and quickly erases her tired energy.

“Did you see that? I guess it’s because I’m a little nervous.”

“You said you were nervous? Is Brother Kyle nervous too?”

A saintess who tilts her head as if she is really curious.

That’s true, too, Kyle, who fought casually with the princess and Priscilla, who were among the top 10 in the empire.

In addition, he single-handedly defeated two top 10 players.

How much my heart trembled just hearing that story.

I asked if he wasn’t nervous during the fight. Kyle wasn’t? I answered.

I didn’t pretend to be strong. I just wasn’t really nervous.

Crucially, even the head of Priscilla has parents, older brothers, and older sisters who feel burdened.

For Kyle, who lived there, he became a great man who wouldn’t be nervous in any situation.

I couldn’t imagine that a man like that was nervous.

“Originally, any man is nervous in front of a woman. Especially in front of a beauty.”

Four saints in Kyle’s answer? And she gives off a slightly startled response.

Beauty means everything from Tisha to Elgar to the princess.

I tried not to do this, but my worried mind raises my head again.

‘Are you not nervous right now when you meet me?’

Even the question

, I tried to do it without even knowing it.

The first is that even if you don’t have greed, everyone hates being in last place.

Even if it’s a saint, it’s something that can’t be helped because it’s a human being.

“By the way, I’m still nervous right now.”

Kyle smiles as the saintess sits down next to her bench.

“It seems to be the most nerve-wracking. Hmmm.”

I’m almost ashamed to say it, but what can I do?

I did something even more embarrassing to the women before me.

No one should be left behind because of you.

This is the duty of those who choose a harem, as well as a rule that must be followed.

Simply it’s for them, and if you look at the future, it’s for yourself.

“Whoops.”

The saintess smiled as if she liked the answer.

Then she looks up at the sky for a moment and then opens her mouth.

“Originally, I filled the allotted time very tightly. I wanted to spend time with him like that, but seeing Brother Kyle tired, I don’t feel like it.”

“I am fine. Really. Because it’s okay….”

“No. It’s because I’m not okay. So, I’ll stay like this for a little while.”

The saintess stood up from her seat and slowly moved her steps.

She turns her head as Kyle catches up with her and speeds her up.

“It’s already been two months.”

“Okay. You worked hard for two months.”

“What? Rather, Brother Kyle suffered more.”

“What do you think I went through?”

Then she shook her head as if the saintess knew everything.

It’s not that I don’t have any sense at all, and I get reports of this and that from people around me.

“I heard her tell her family that she is working very hard.”

“Ah….”

“Captain Priscilla said that. On the way home from her sparring with Baron, she says that Brother Kyle says only nice things every day. The baron himself said that he felt good because they did not betray his son’s trust.”

Father, that’s true. He told me not to talk like that.

It’s a bit embarrassing, but it’s not too bad. Rather, it is quite good.

Because the family is taking care of the guests for their own sake.

“By the way, how did the construction of the chapel go?”

“Did I not tell you? It was completed last week.”

“You mean already? I thought it would take quite a while.”

“Yes. To be honest, I was very surprised.”

The saintess’ words after that were John Nassen-esque stories.

I don’t need any compensation, and it’s okay to say thank you.

It’s not bad to hit weight in this new way.

With that being said, the people of Jon Nassen finished the dirty work in an instant.

‘I can imagine. Maybe do a good job, give an overload. He must have smiled, saying, “One stone kills two birds.”

Looking at it like this, it seems that people are really pure and kind.

It’s just that their appearance is so terrifying that they are misunderstood as barbarians.

“These people were scary at first, but now I think they are very nice people.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes. Sometimes it was also so much fun that I laughed out loud.”

The day he built the chapel and memorized the prayer for the first time, he heard the prayers of the people of Jon Nassen and almost laughed while praying for the first time. The saintess continued her words with a smile on her lips.

“More weight tomorrow, stronger overload. But, I guess you could say it’s like the people here.”

“….”

I think the god who received the prayer would ask what kind of prayer there is.

Some priests like to recite pious prayers in a rigid atmosphere.

Fortunately, the saintess didn’t seem to have hardened that way.

If that’s the case, I would have said ‘it’s not fun to memorize!’

“It’s disappointing. You leave in a few days.”

“You don’t do hard training now, do you?”

“… To be honest, I like it!”

Hee hee! He laughed, and Kyle eventually burst into laughter as well.

Even so, the image of a saintess whose body was weak is still vivid in my eyes.

But now, even though there are no discs, she has reached the point where she can lift the bar and squat.

It’s not like she’s showing off her muscles, but at least she has some solidity inside.

‘If this is enough, there won’t be any big problems later due to lack of exercise.’

The saintess was weak and was in pain somewhere, or she collapsed. When she fantasizes like that, she is so terrified.

She is by her side and that shouldn’t be the case. Shame on John Nassen.

“Thank you, Brother Kyle. Thanks to you, the two months were really fun and rewarding.”

“What do you think I did? It was the saintess’ will that came here, and it was the saintess’ will that she endured. I didn’t do anything.”

“Just being by your side was enough for me.”

If that’s the case, I’m glad I did. Kyle muttered that to himself.

“The hand.”

“Yes?”

“Can I hold your hand, saintess?”

As a reward for her efforts so far, she went a little closer and gave it away.

“… Like.”

Carefully hold the hand of the saintess that she quietly extended.

Compared to Kyle’s crude and rough hands, they are very warm and soft.

“Brother Kyle. By any chance, may I ask what you will do after graduating from the academy?”

“After graduation….”

“You may return here to Baron John Nassen, but you may not. Since he is not the next baron, there is no obligation to return.”

That’s right. In fact, Kyle also thought about that part.

It is only right to return to one’s hometown during vacation, but what about after graduation?

Does he have anything else to do at Jon Nassen? There won’t be No, I bet there isn’t.

Nowadays, I think it’s better to stay in the empire.

It’s not just because of women. Because Kyle himself knows.

He suits the Empire rather than the Baron. It is suitable to serve as a bridge here.

Emperors and imperial aristocrats seemed to be looking forward to such a role.

‘I don’t know what my parents, older brother, or sister will think. That’s important.’

Anyway, the saintess was the first to ask about future plans.

I was concentrating on how everyone is going to spend the day right now.

She seems to know why the princess told the saint not to be vigilant.

“Why are you asking such a question, would it be rude to ask?”

“No. It’s not like that.”

“If so, do you have any intention of coming to the church? Are you sure you want to ask that question?”

Of course I assumed that. Because the saintess belongs to the church.

She must have thought of it as a bit more beneficial to the Order.

But the answer that came back was ‘no’ again this time.

“No?”

“Yes.”

“Then….”

“If Brother Kyle stays in the Empire after graduation. I’m also thinking of giving up her position as a saint at that time. That way, I think she’ll be able to stay by her brother’s side more definitely.”

“… Yes?”
