Chapter 18 - Mr. Westly House Part 8

After finishing getting ready, Annabelle and I went straight to the Westly family study/meeting room on the 1st floor. There was a young priest with eccentric red hair, his hair was a little messy from his clothes he looked like a priest, but because of his hair he looked more like a punk than a priest. Next to her was a nun who was still quite young and her appearance was quite calm.

"So are you a subordinate by Father Coldberg?"

He looked at me with a sharp gaze when he said that and stood watching me from top to bottom, while the nun next to him just looked at me as if emotionless while drinking her tea.

"It's more appropriate if we are called colleagues rather than subordinates. Introduce My name is William Hildenman."

"Regnitz Alvergast, you don't seem like a great person. I wonder why that lousy priest sent you."

The red-haired priest stood up and shook my hand then sighed, his face looked disappointed after seeing me up close.

"Of course it's because I'm better than him right? That's why he asked me to solve this problem."

"It's not strange that the lousy person sends another lousy person too. Hoo.."

He looked behind me, there stood Annabelle who had been following from behind. He then pushed me aside and immediately approached Annabelle.

"Hi, Beautiful Miss, are you the maid of this house too?"

"No. I'm Mr. William's personal maid, my name is Annabelle."

"Hahahaha.. So you're that lousy man's personal maid? How about if you work as my servant then I will pay you two... not three times what you get now."

"Quite an attractive offer sir Alvergast, however I will only serve Master William."

"Is that so? Do you like uncles like him? Am I sure that if you come with me, I can satisfy you every day."

Regnitz said that while holding Annabelle's shoulder.

"No. Thank you Mr. Regnitz.."

Annabelle said that while trying to get the red-haired priest's hand off her shoulder with hers.

"Please first hear the offers that I will make. How about we go to another room to discuss it?"

The red-haired priest again insisted, then put his arm around Annabelle and tried to take her to another room.

"Wait, isn't your act outrageous as a priest? Apart from harassing my maid, you disrespectfully touched her too."

William said this while releasing the red-haired priest's hand from Annabelle's shoulder.

"Outrageous? Hahaha, you really don't know what your master is doing, do you?? Even I am still much better than him!"

"So? I wouldn't be surprised if that bastard priest could act even worse than you, but please don't tease my servant any further."

"For someone with poor skills like you you are quite arrogant. I hate people like you the most. Fine, then how about we settle this matter outside. Let it be like this. I'm not an ordinary priest.."

"ENOUGH, Regnitz!"

There was a fairly loud voice from where the nun was sitting, the sound was loud enough and made Regnitz immediately fell silent when he heard the voice.

"I told you we didn't come here to look for trouble, did I? After all, I've told you several times if you want to seduce women, don't do it while we're working, you're only sullying the name of God and the church!"

"But… Miss Elaine…"

"No buts! Because of your nature like that I have to always accompany you you know?!"

Regnitz who had been coquettish, arrogant and did as he pleased was silent a thousand words after this nun, said all these things. Regnitz just stood quietly in front of this nun, this nun then approached me and Annabelle.

"Sorry for introducing myself late. My name is Elaine Silverstreak."

"I'm William Hildenman and this is my maid Annabelle."

Then Elaine watched William one more time from top to bottom, feeling like she was analyzing you.

"You're pretty lousy, I understand why Regnitz could be so upset. But there must be a special reason you are often given assignments by Father Coldberg, so I'm looking forward to your actions later, okay?"

"What do you mean Miss Elaine?"

"We'd better wait for the host as well, let them explain it in more detail to us."

After saying that Elaine sat back down and ordered Regnitz who was still standing to sit back down with her rather sharp words. And of course Regnitz obey her orders without any complains.

"I don't really understand either Mr. William, I guess the only thing we can do is wait for an explanation from Mr. Westly or Alfred."

"Well I guess there's no other choice right Annabelle."

Annabelle nodding her head and we waited for their arrival with a rather awkward atmosphere in this room.

-

"Sorry we came late as the young master and I have to take care of some paperwork."

"Yeah, I still have to get used to because of someone. So, is there a problem here?"

Sharp eyes staring at my face it seems young master Westly is still holding a grudge over what happened yesterday. But what's more surprising is that he realized that the atmosphere was very awkward here, I thought he was an insensitive person.

"Look Mr. Westly, we're just confused by the arrival of church people who have come here."

"Hmm.. is that so? I guess you know that I still don't really believe in your abilities?"

"Let me help explain it young master, so there will be no misunderstanding. So actually Miss Silverstreak and Mister Alvergast came this morning and they are Reindhard's messengers. They have come to observe the work of Mr. William and Miss Annabelle."

"Observation? Aren't there more experts in the church for this kind of thing?"

"True, but right now there are a lot of problems going on and experts are being dispatched to deal with them. So young priests lack this kind of training."

"But don't many church people doubt Father Coldberg's abilities?"

"Indeed, but there are also some people who really believe in his abilities. Including bishop Reinhard."

"Bishop? Isn't Master Reinhard a Priest?"

"No Bishop Reinhard has been a bishop for a long time, did Pastor Coldberg never tell him this? I heard they are close friends."

"Of course not."

"I see, i think you should ask Pastor Coldberg about it."

(Again that bastard priest didn't explain anything to me, damn it once this task is done I will ask for additional compensation.)

"Well I guess I explained a little bit not why the church members are here. So now I will ask all of you to work together to heal my mother for the time being."
