Haines coughed in vain at Reyhaas's words and looked away. He saw his long sword hanging on the wall.
"that that...."
The overbearing death that Reyhaas intentionally exhaled made Haines' nerves atrophied.
Haines forgot his words, rolled his eyes and said.
"I am only here to express my hope that you would like to discuss it with me."
Reyhaas stared at Haines without answering, and Haines muttered a vulgar word to himself.
"And... it is absurd that a saint who has never properly played the role of a saint is trying to abuse her authority like that. The High Priest has the right to be expelled, but the saint must be..."
Haines coughed and turned to dissatisfaction with the saint to avoid accusing Reyhaas.
"I was busy with the priesthood, so I didn't know."
"The high priest has the same thoughts as me..."
"That Elium's discipline was so messed up."
As Reyhaas's eyes grew cooler, he turned to himself, and Haines realized he had made a mistake.
"What a blasphemous story."
"Sir!"
"When people are idle, they tend to think nonsense. No matter how many priests serve God."
Although the saint was brought by the high priest, the high priest never surrounded her when dissatisfaction with the saint's negligence came out.
However, today's Reyhaas was looking at Haines with a suffocatingly cold gaze.
"They said something was wrong with the Ares mine. Did I mention that monsters appear and a dark energy flows out?"
"High Priest...!"
Haines's face hardened.
The Ares mine is so far away, and once you start touring, you may not know when you will be able to return to Elium.
The environment there was notorious for being barren.
"I am too old and weak..."
"I order the chief priest to conduct an investigation himself."
Reyhaas's resolute voice pierced Haines' ears.
Haines deeply regretted having mistreated saint.
***
Her day as a saint went by in moderation.
Today, with the blessing of Hesed, I read a book and took a walk in the backyard.
The gods, who had been discussing hard, were silent for a while, even taking a nap. And in the late afternoon, while dressing up with the help of the maids for the visit to the Imperial Palace, there was a sudden commotion outside.
"What's going on?"
"One of the bridesmaid has something to say to the saint, and she says she wants to meet you."
"She have something to say to me?"
I was curious, so I said to maid.
"Bring her in."
After a while, following the maids, a familiar bridemaid entered.
She must have been about 16 years old, a kid who looked younger than me here.
"I want to saint's maid."
With that said, I looked into the girl's black eyes for a long time.
"At that time, I couldn't even say thank you. I am so blessed...!"
"I'll be grateful for it."
I cut off the girl's words and said firmly.
"But I have enough maids."
Originally, the saint was followed by several bridesmaids in addition to the maids who took care of them.
However, it was obvious why Reyhaas did not assign a priestess to me.
Because I am not a real saint, and there is a risk that the priestess will find out that I am not a saint.
So, unlike the priestess who worked as priests with divine power, a maid who worked without divine power was assigned to me.
"Ha, but!"
"And then the only reason I helped you was because that child was covering the bookshelf that I needed."
I said to her in a calm voice.
Thank you for coming.
Words like that didn't do her any good.
I said to the apprentice bridemaid in a cold, stern voice.
"Then will you leave now? As you can see, I am busy."
But Daisy still looked at me with eyes that didn't give up. She had a slight watery look in her eyes.
"Nevertheless, I want to serve Saint.
I let out a small sigh and decided to exite the maids for a moment.
"Hey."
After all, it was only the two of us left, and I said to the girl.
"There was a girl near me named Annie who had been serving me a for a long time."
Daisy's eyes were looking at me as she knelt on the floor.
It could be seen that she was a qualitatively different kid from Annie, but being my direct maid was another matter.
"And not long ago she passed away. I was struck her by sword."
Daisy's eyes widened at those words.
"Why do you think she died?"
I walked over to Daisy and looked down at her with her chin raised. It's not my taste to scare kids, but sometimes I have to.
"..."
"It's just because she played the wrong tongue in front of me."
Daisy's eyes fluttered violently at my words.
It was well known that fear had been planted in those dark eyes.
"I killed a skilled maid, too, how long will apprentice bridemaid last?"
Daisy's eyebrows trembled.
If I had done this much, I would have figured it out, thinking about it, I stood up. And I stared at her, expecting Daisy to break her tail.
But Daisy, who looked at the floor for a moment with a clenched fist trembling, suddenly raised her head and looked at me.
"I still want to have Saint's maid!"
I was taken aback by the girl's words.
Did she not understand what I said, I could kill her?
"Growing up as an orphan, it was very difficult to protect myself. I was lucky enough to become an apprentice bridemaid, so now I thought I had power, but I wasn't."
"...."
"Even if he harassed me, I felt like I was going to die because my situation was so miserable that I had no choice but to suffer. I don't like me because nothing has changed."
I suddenly remembered my past life.
It wasn't like a fairy tale.
"I have never, never, never really received an apology from another nobleman. Even if they slapped me in the face first, I should have begged. But the day I received an apology from that nobleman… I realized that I was no longer at fault."
Her clenched fists trembled.
"For me at that time, the image of the saint was a ray of light for me, and it was that I always wanted…"
Daisy's determined eyes were looking up at me.
"Even if I become a godess, I will have live my whole life serving the saint."
"..."
"I'm afraid of dying while serving for a saint, but…"
Daisy's eyes were shining with will.
"…I will try not to die."
Is it because the appearance of that child... is similar to my miserable life in the past when I tried to survive somehow?
A strange feeling filled my chest.
"I am not what you think I am."
I am just a fake saint, not a real saint. I am the one who will leave the temple soon.
Despite my cold rejection, Daisy opened her mouth with an unchanging will.
"It doesn't matter who the saint is."
She fell down in front of me again.
"So please accept me!"
I let out a small sigh as I watched that her forehead almost touched on floor.
'She is a foolish girl.'
She was more educated than the other maids.
"Where is your family?"
I asked Daisy.
Daisy hurriedly raised her head and answered.
"My parents passed away and I was adopted by my maternal uncle and I am listed in the family register."
After thinking for a moment, I opened my mouth.
"Even if you could endanger your life as well as the survival of your family if you take care of me, will this request not change?"
"It doesn't matter."
Daisy replied as if she had nothing to think about. She was probably quite educated in the adopted home.
After a while, I parted my lips.
"It's no use regretting later."
There was no reason to stop her further. I think it's better to have at least one limb that I can trust.
"Thank you. My Lady!"
Daisy bowed her head and shouted.
