Chapter 6 – Preparing for the Feast

It’s been a week since I told Lydia not to take care of her for a while.

It’s hard to say that it’s actually a short time because the period I’m telling you not to take care of is about a month, but…

Even though Lydia just disappeared for a week, there were a lot of inconveniences in my daily life.

It was a useful time to realize that I had been entrusting a lot of things to Lydia.

I’m really sorry for Lydia, but she told me not to take care of herself for a while, and now I can’t call her…

That said, she really had business, so she did something to call.

If you tell them not to take care of you for a while and then call you back shortly after, what would you think from the point of view of hearing the words?

Even if you are like me, it will be ridiculous.

How are you doing breakfast, lunch, dinner, or taking a bath?

Since there is a bathroom, you can just prepare and wash yourself, but I decided to move myself to eat, so recently I have been eating with other nuns.

Every time I go out to a restaurant, countless girls have their eyes fixed on me.

Some children were so busy looking at me that they forgot to even lift a spoon to eat.

What to say… I wasn’t in a very good mood because I felt like I had become a natural monument of this convent, but I can’t say what to look for.

Besides, most of the nuns here are the children I’ve been with since I was a child, so it’s hard to say anything.

That’s why I smiled at the children who were staring blankly at me and asked for permission to eat without worrying about it.

Fortunately, at first, the girls didn’t care even if I said it and kept looking at me.

Maybe I’m just feeling that way.

In any case, since I had been reincarnated as a saint, I had been helped by Lydia all my life, so I was not used to the current situation where I went out to eat alone.

Even the people who usually prepare the meals froze on the spot when they saw where I came from…

But why?

It seems that I have come out so much that it is incomparable to when Lydia took care of her for a week, but I have not seen Lydia yet.

If there are so many of them, we might run into each other at least once…

It almost felt like Lydia was avoiding me.

She initially thought Lydia was interested in her female behavior, so she did this, but was it a handshake?

Perhaps she felt uneasy that Lydia might fall out with her.

I did it because I didn’t want to be the object of interest in women’s bodies and behaviors with women, and to avoid getting caught preparing for the festival…

I had no intention of falling out with Lydia.

No, I don’t want to go wrong.

After all, it’s like a family relationship, so why would you want to break up?

Absolutely not.

But since she can’t stay still like this, let’s think about what kind of child Lydia’s usually cherished nun was.

Umm…

I’ve always drawn pictures, so I can’t remember who Lydia’s favorite nun is…

She remembers only the fact that she was pink-haired a pink slut.

In a convent like this, pink hair stands out quite a bit, so maybe you can find it if you look around here…

Thinking so, I looked around the restaurant.

Be around here…

“Yes.”

There is also a nun with hair that can be said to be a model of a pink slut.

Normally, most of the nuns covered their heads, but now, since this was a place to eat, they had taken off everything they were wearing on their heads.

Thanks to you, I was able to find it very easily.

Now that we’ve finished eating, shall we go up to him and sit down?

I walked lightly to the seat in front of the pink-haired nun who was talking to the black-haired nun and sat down.

As soon as I sat down, the two children who were talking to each other froze right there.

As if the machine was running, it giggled and turned its head to look at me.

“Uh… “

“Stand, stand… Standing lady… ?”

The dark-haired nun was stumbling over her words, and the pink-haired nun was calling me with a tremendous stammering of her words.

It seemed that I was quite surprised that I had come here, but I couldn’t back down now that I had come this far.

I smiled and opened my mouth.

“May I ask what your name is?”

“I-I am Millia… !”

“Hey, hey! The saintess called me, but why are you answering… ?!”

Oh that one… ?

I thought he would argue and ask if I should answer instead of shouting, but it wasn’t like that, he just thought I was calling him.

I’m really sorry for the pink-haired nun who talks like that, but I was asking two people…

No, it’s not really a sorry story.

Because this is my habit.

“Then, the nun’s name is… “

“Well, that’s right, I’m Neneneria!!”

“Ah… You are Nene Neria… ?”

When I said it in surprise, Neria covered her mouth with her hand and replied, “It’s okay.”

“This is Neria… “

Maybe it was only then that I felt a little more at ease because I was joking around, so I smiled as I saw her slowly returning to her original tension.

Yes, after all, you should talk to someone with a peaceful mind…

Three or four times, talking to a stuttering child was a no-brainer on my part.

First of all, I have to maintain as much as possible the image of a saint that I have maintained throughout my life…

Shall we continue to have a daily conversation so that you can have a crush on me?

“You are really cute. Even if I’m a saint, in the end, I’m a person just like you, so you can treat me comfortably, right?”

“How can you do that to the saintess… “

“Oh, you can be really comfortable with me. I want to be friends with you guys too.”

He said that and smiled broadly.

Of course, if a high-ranking member of the church suddenly visits and talks like this, the people below will have a burden on their hearts.

I’m sorry for these kids, but I want to hear about Lydia’s current situation even if it’s like this.

“That… But why do apprentice nuns like us… ?”

“Whoops… Oops, I found out that you have other intentions.”

“Ah… Sorry, sorry… “

“Taeng!”

The pink-haired nun, who was trying to apologize to me while stuttering at my sudden cry, froze as it were.

The burden of the heart is given, but the burden must be relieved as much as possible.

Therefore… It’s common for high-ranking people to treat lower-ranking people like friends… Don’t you feel that way?

I want to maintain that kind of relationship with these kids, keeping the line in moderation but getting as close as possible.

After asking about Lydia’s current situation, we won’t meet again.

Of course, it’s not that I don’t want to meet you, so I don’t meet you… Because there is a difference in status to the end, it is close to a place where it is difficult for me to meet.

The fact that I was able to meet these children this time was only possible because I had temporarily quit Lydia’s job as a babysitter and secretary.

Those who are high in the church will be amazed when they see me now.

Mainly on the bad side.

In particular, these children who had daily conversations with me in this way are more likely to be photographed by people of higher rank.

I also want to be close to these children, but it is best for these children not to be close to them.

I hate being a saint.

Even so, I don’t want to go to a hero party of the past where I have to subdue the demon lord.

Of course, I’m being called the strongest saintess of all time, but what’s inside is the worst personality of all time.

Of course, it’s not that I’m bad or anything like that, but if I think about whether I should be called a saint, it’s not like that again.

Anyway, I’m going to go to the middle of the day…

Because now I have to get information about Lydia from these kids.

Therefore…

“Shall we talk?”

I’m sorry guys.

.

“Hey.”

“Why.”

The place left after the saintess, Eris, disappeared.

With a dazed expression, Neria called out to Milia next to her.

Milia, too, had a blank expression on her face as she answered.

Perhaps both of them are thinking the same thing at the same time.

How stupid and bad the thoughts they had in the past were.

“I feel weird right now. I want to die… “

“Die.”

Maybe that will help the world.

Neria, who had a dazed expression at Milia’s remarks that were too cold, smiled.

As a result of face-to-face encounters, it was an ordinary, if ordinary, thing that made them realize once again how trashy their delusions were.

However, the pink-haired nun, Neria, was beyond imagination.

“Ah, I want to show my sincerity with the saintess.”

“Tsk tsk.”

How on earth did she come to be a nun?

No, considering that she was an ordinary nun until she came across Miss Lily’s cartoon, the source of all her evil may actually be Miss Lily.

But for both of them, that was a good thing.

It was because both of them were delusional about the saintess.
