I’m a Fake Saintess But the Gods Are Obsessed With Me - Chapter 111

“Kyuuuu!”

 

After dinner, Cass and I came out to the garden outside, wide-eyed in surprise. Kyuu was riding on Blue Wing’s back and flying around.

 

“It looks like a mouse on a cat’s back.”

 

I laughed at Cass’ words.

 

“I guess they’ve become friends.”

 

A maid took it to take care of it for a while, but it seemed to have made friends with Blue Wing.

 

‘Fortunately, it wasn’t eaten…’

 

Although I thought about it for a while while watching the Blue Wing fly around, it looked like they were playing well, so there should be no problem.

 

“Kyuu. Let’s go now.”

 

I left Cass and walked towards the Blue Wing.

 

“Kyuu, let’s go!”

 

After walking for a while, shouting at the sky, I looked back and saw Cass smiling at me in the distance.

 

I shouted to Blue Wing in the sky.

 

“Blue Wing! Can you drop Kyuu off?”

 

Then, in an instant, Blue Wing, which flew to Cass at high speed, suddenly turned in the air.

 

“Kyuuuu?!”

 

Originally, the moment of every accident is an instant. Kyuu tilted its body, as if its small hand holding Blue Wing had slipped.

 

“Kyuuu! Kyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk!!”

 

And without a surprise, it fell to the floor. It was about 2 meters high, which could be dangerous to it, so I screamed and ran.

 

“Kyuu!!”

 

And Kyuu rolled on the floor a little far from Cass as if it was being thrown.

 

I stopped and covered my mouth with both hands.

 

“Kyuuuuuu…”

 

My heart thumped.

 

‘There isn’t anything wrong, right?’‘

 

And then, I saw Cass, who had approached Kyuu for a few steps, reached out first and lifted Kyuu into his hand.

 

His voice was audible because of the distance.

 

“Its leg is broken.”

 

‘I’m glad, though. Holy power can heal it to that extent.’

 

It was when I, a little relieved, started walking back to Cass. A soft light began to emanate from his hand.

 

It was similar to the energy I felt at the temple hall. It was a powerful divine power. It gently wrapped around Kyuu.

 

After a few minutes, the soft light disappeared. If the holy power I use is a much stronger sacred power than normal holy power, then the divine power he uses feels like it is on the border between divine power and holy power.

 

‘As expected, he’s really a high-ranking priest.’

 

“Kyuuuuu?”

 

Soon, Kyuu spread its legs. The chubby legs were moving well.

 

It blinked its eyes and looked at Cass. Even though Cass had cured it, he was holding on it quite awkwardly.

 

“…”

 

Kyuu held out a short hand to him.

 

“Kyuuuu!”

 

Cass furrowed his eyebrows, looking at the little creature he had healed. Having lived a thoroughly pragmatic life, I thought that there would have been only few cases of such selfless incidents to him.

 

“…”

 

He stared at Kyuu in his hand for a while before handing it to me without saying a word.

 

As I opened my hands, Kyuu jumped in.

 

“Are you okay, Kyuu?”

 

“Kyuuuu.”

 

I was so happy that Kyuu felt better.

 

Looking at Cass, who was standing next to me, I said.

 

“Thank you for healing Kyuu.”

 

Cass pursed his lips, still stiff.

 

“I don’t like using this ability.”

 

He looked into my eyes and spoke.

 

“You overdid it yesterday, didn’t you?”

 

“Pardon?”

 

[The God of Knowledge, Hessed, shouts out exclamations.]

 

[The God of Destruction, Ciel, blushes.]

 

And after a while, Cass looked at me and said.

 

“That’s not it. It’s late already.”

 

(he’s talking abt time btw)

 

[The God of Knowledge, Hessed, encourages you to sleep.]

 

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, picks up Kairos’ mat and starts spreading it out.]

 

…These Gods are in a frenzy trying to weave us together whenever they have a chance.

 

I tried to ignore the chat window in front of me and spoke to Cass.

 

“Before I go back, I have something to ask of you…”

 

Cass looked at me.

 

“There’s someone I’d like to be introduced to. Professor Draive Lubern, he seems to be in the theology department at Euclipse Academy.”

 

Euclipse Academy was an academy founded by Lloyd Merchant for vocational education 20 years ago.

 

The academy had departments such as aesthetics and theology in addition to commerce, which was the most popular because it guaranteed employment at Lloyd Merchant.

 

He was the author of [Contemplation of the God of Lies], and it turned out that the book’s publishing house had a mark of Lloyd Merchant because he was a professor of Euclipse theology.

 

“Is it to track down Camilla?”

 

At his words, I nodded. I wanted to meet him and trace the clues I learned from the book.

 

‘What kind of person is he? Perhaps….’

 

Cass opened his mouth again.

 

“I’ll tell him to leave a schedule out. You can come with me.”

 

“Ah, there’s no need to do that. I can go by myself.”

 

“No. I’ll go to the temple the day after tomorrow afternoon.”

 

I nodded my head bewildered at Cass’ resolute words.

 

I don’t think it’s necessary to bring a busy person along, but he seemed to be with me.

 

***

 

When I returned from dinner with Cass, Daisy was out to meet me in front of the main building.

 

“How was your date, Saintess?”

 

At her words, I narrowed my eyes and glanced at Daisy.

 

“Hehe, it’s a joke. Saintess.”

 

Kyuu jumped from my shoulder and landed on Daisy’s shoulder. Its leg must have been fine.

 

“Goodness Gifts came from the Imperial Palace.”

 

“Gift?”

 

“I heard that His Imperial Majesty gave the Saintess gifts as a token of appreciation, though?”

 

I could tell from her words that the Emperor had gotten out of bed. It was a rewarding feeling that I had healed him with Odyssey’s Response in the Imperial Palace the other day. Maybe Kyle will also be relieved now.

 

When I went to the room, I found a pile of shiny precious metals and gold coins.

 

“Oooh!”

 

I opened the All-Purpose Pocket after a long time.

 

[Your Money: 25,400 franc]

 

Last time, the cost of maintaining dignity also increased, and there were many things I received in the name of participating in the temple’s work, so my assets increased considerably.

 

My role as a fake saintess was over, but I was still planning to buy a building with my name in the capital city.

 

‘Or a beach house would be nice. In any case, the wealth is more profitable, so let’s work hard to accumulate it.’

 

Perhaps, if I dispose of those gold coins to some extent, the money I have now will be piled up.

 

[The God of Art, Mond, is interested in the treasure and licks his lips.]

 

“Gosh, Daisy.”

 

I took a small sack out of the drawer, put a decent amount of gold coins in the box, and held it out to Daisy.

 

“Why are you giving me this, Saintess?”

 

“It’s a gift”

 

“Pardon meee?”

 

Daisy took a step back and shook her hand.

 

“I can’t accept this, Saintess. I get my salary from the temple.”

 

Unlike Annie, who tried to extort every penny from me, Daisy had a frightened look on her face.

 

“It was written on my mind that I couldn’t even pay for your travel back home.”

 

“But, Saintess…”

 

“Please accept this as my request. I’m giving it because I feel uncomfortable.”

 

Daisy took the gold coins and bowed her head.

 

“The Saintess is very nice, yet I can’t even help you with your work…”

 

Eventually, Daisy raised her head and said with tears in her eyes.

 

On the desk was an open book, Contemplation of the God of Lies. Seeing that the page was different from the page I had opened earlier, Daisy must have tried to read it too.

 

I told her.

 

“Now it’s still better than expected, so don’t say that.”

 

At my words, Daisy wiped away her tears and nodded her head.

 

“Thank you, Saintess. From the time you saved me, my life belongs to the Saintess. So, if there’s anything I can do, just tell me.”

 

“Kyuuu kyuuuuu!”

 

Kyuu also built its enthusiasm on Daisy’s shoulders. It looked so spirited that I couldn’t believe its leg had been broken earlier.

 

I kept smiling when I saw the two of them.
