Chapter 39 – A Sad Saint Wants to Be Comforted With Her Body

Episode 39 A sad saint wants to be comforted by her body

The ‘love potion’ requested by Alberic.
The target of the so-called aphrodisiac was not Princess Catherine.
Yeah, I thought it might be like this.
I would have been disappointed if I had thought of it simply as a way to improve marital relations.
Now I wonder who the owner of this hair is.
Long dark brown hair with thick wavy hair.

I returned with a bag of hair in my bosom to keep it from getting wet in the rain.

When I returned to the incense burner, it was early morning and there were no people.
It is full of only the sound of falling rain.

“Black… Hehe… Rebekah…”

Marianne sits with her legs crossed on her thick matting floor, silently sobbing.

Dump.

I also sat down in front of Rebekah’s mortuary tablet.

“Rebekah… He died because of me…”

“…”

At my words, Marianne looks back at me without removing her hair, which was tangled in tears, from her face.

“When the arrows flew, they wrapped their bodies around me twice as I was careless to look around.
Poisoned arrows… That’s when you hit it.”

It’s raining like this
As I spoke, my lips were terribly dry and twisted.

“I… If she had dodged in time, Rebekah wouldn’t have been hit by a poison arrow.
If so… Nothing would have happened
The injury caused by the ‘Sword of Judgment’ stopped bleeding after all.”

I held her hand tightly as she hugged her leg.

“… So, Marie.
It’s not your fault.
It’s my fault.
Don’t beat yourself up.
Don’t chew that dog. “

“… Camus-nim always talks like that.”

“… What?”

Marianne turns her head away and stares at her in my face.

“It is always your fault.
She is a hypocrite herself.
It’s about making a profit…
You say it that way.”

“… Because it’s true.”

“Isn’t that what you want to look like?”

“Why me?”

Marianne held her hand in hers, and with her other hand she ripped off her tear-soaked hair.

“If you do that… Does your guilt lessen?”

“… No.”

“If you blame yourself like that, won’t Kamyu-nim get hurt even more?
Excuse me… Aren’t you sick? Mind?”

“… It hurts.”

Marianne’s expression softened.
A look of embarrassment.

“It hurts, why are you like that?
Do you enjoy carrying your own wounds and digging them out?”

“Because it’s better for me to be sick than for you to be sick.”

Marianne is her speechless expression.
So I keep opening my mouth.

“And I am a person who can be hurt.
Because you are the one who has to be sick. Therefore… Can’t avoid
That’s cowardly.”

“Why… ?
It’s the first time I’ve heard of the duty to be sick.”

“No way. You should have heard
Especially on the battlefield.
I was a corps commander,
It was an espionage
It’s a hypnotist.
You manipulated and commanded others and put them in danger.
And sacrifices happen, how can you ignore me?”

Seriously.
So whenever a sacrifice took place, I couldn’t hide my expression.
Master also pointed out that every time.
And you were worried
… So he made an expressionless mask out of iron and wore it.
Until the time of the commander-in-chief.

“Anyone who puts someone first has at least an obligation to be hurt.
Those who avoid it are not qualified as commanders.
If you avoid it, it’s a monster.
Seeing life as a long term… Monster.
And those monsters are always horribly concerned with their own lives.
It’s against the rules.”

I continued my words with difficulty, keeping my eyes fixed on Rebekah’s mortuary tablet.
The way Marianne stares at my side face tickles me.

“… It seems that Mr. Jacques wants a cool-headed commander during the cathedral attack.”

“That and that are different.
Zach wanted the coolness to save his life, he didn’t want the cold-blooded to throw himself away.”

Patter.

The rain intensifies and the sound of the rain becomes stronger.
… I have to go in today, but I’m worried.

“… It rains a lot.
It would be difficult if the soil collapsed at the graveside.
Rebekah must be cold too.”

“…”

It has been raining for the third day, and the road to the funeral site is also a sea of ​​water.
Will I be able to go well?

Marianne’s gaze kept tickling my face.

* * *

The road to the burial ground was, as expected, arduous.
In general, those with their own estates dispersed, and some went to cemeteries on the outskirts of the capital.
The members of the cathedral were buried in the memorial park on the right side of the cathedral, so it was easy to get there.

However, Marianne, I, and the paladins, including Sir Thomas to help them, were heading to Adeby Village.
The reason is that…

“Marianne.
Sister Rebekah is also a member of the cathedral.
To be buried in the memorial park inside…”

“This is what Liv meant in her nun life.
She wanted to be buried in the back garden of her hometown.
Even if she lived, after her retirement, she wanted to look down on her hometown warmly there.
I really want to take my friend there.”

It was because Marianne was stubborn despite the priests’ dissuade.

In the rain, the wagon carrying the coffin lost its wheel in the mud, and the horses got stuck in the mud up to their ankles, making it difficult to move forward.

“Hey, Mr. Camus. We…”

“Are you okay.
I’ve already thrown away my clothes, so I’ll do it.”

Each time I pulled the wheel off with my servants and pulled the horse out of the pit.
Marianne and her paladins also made a mess, pushing and pulling wagons in the mud.
The robes, all dressed in black, were muddy with mud.
The priests watching this seemed quite astounded.

“Why is everyone like this…”

When I climbed up the hill behind Adebi village, struggling, the pre-dug burial pit had collapsed in the rainwater.

With a splash! Fu-wook! Pak!

I went in again with a shovel and dug it out, and the servants and paladins mended the drainage to keep the rainwater from pooling.

Smack!

“… Why did you come in
I can do it alone.”

“It’s my friend’s grave.”

Marianne pulled her skirt to one side of her and tied her hair in a string, holding her shovel.
It slipped into the pit.
And in the rain, whether mud splashed or not, he scooped up the soil with a shovel.

The last thing Rebekah checked before burying the coffin was a faint smile.
As if there were no regrets.

Seal the coffin lid, bury it, and cover it with soil.
Send her her
Marianne sprinkled the dirt, soaking her face with rain or tears.
The prayers were solemn, the atmosphere solemn.

* * *

“Have you been there, chief?
Oops, you worked hard.”

“Okay. What about Ludvik?”

“I will come down now.”

When she returns to her shop, she is greeted by Jacques.

“Oh, my master!”

“Eva!
You told me not to go to work.
Why did you come?!”

The old human maid, Eva, ran after her, wiping her wet hands on her apron.

“I was worried about the owner…
Oh my, look at this
It’s raining hard without me, and it’s covered in mud…
Just stand there and wait a minute!”

Eva hurriedly ran somewhere.
I took advantage of the gap and quickly asked Zach.

“Eva, are you Master?”

“Look at what you say
She seems to be just a maid.
Ludwig did too.”

“… I’ll check when it comes out, catch me if I fall.”

In the yard where even the holy war was declared, Master, the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King’s Army, would not be in the capital.
I guess I’ll have to check it out.

“Master, take a towel here…”

Fuck!

Eva meekly fell, and instead of me, she was muddy, and Zach grabbed Eva.

“Hold on for a moment.”

“Captain, are you here?
You’ve been through a lot…
What are you doing?”

“Oh, Ludvik.
I was confused about whether it was Master or Eva, so I checked.
I’ll just do this and I’ll go in, everyone go to your room and rest.”

“Haam, are you on vacation today?”

“Okay.
I am also tired today.
I also sent a messenger.
Let’s have a meeting tomorrow.”

Ludvik asked if she had come out of bed, and she yawned and went back to her room.

I put my hand on Eva’s forehead and look into Eva’s unfocused eyes and ask.

“Who are you?”

“To… Bar.
The owner’s elder… Maid…”

“Why do you follow your master?”

“Her son… Find me…
Grandchildren… Made me grow… Benefactor…”

“Nene Boulanger, where are you?”

“That is… Who… ?
I don’t know…”

Hmmm, isn’t it a state of possession or hypnosis?

Fuck!

“Eva, are you okay?
That’s why you shouldn’t run recklessly on wet floors.”

“Yes… ?
Did I fall?”

“Then. Must have been tired
Zach next to me grabbed it.”

“Ah… Thank you, Zach!”

Zach scratched his cheeks, as if this situation was really awkward.

“Then Captain, I will go up too.”

“Oh, yes. Have a good rest
I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Zach also stretched and went up to the second floor.

“Master, wipe it with a towel here.”

“Thank you.”

“Oh, by the way, the bath water has already been prepared on the third floor.”

“Yep.
My body was still shaking, but it was fine.”

It was then.

Smart.

What kind of guest are you on a rainy day like this?
It’s not even business hours.

I gestured to Eva to leave, already wet, and opened the door.
Ugh… I’m cold now too.

Sigh.

And I see Marianne standing in front of the door.

“Uh… ?!
Marie, didn’t you go back to the cathedral?”

“… Yeah.”

Flash!
Rumble! Kukkoom!

Her lightning flashed and her thunder drowned out Marianne’s muttering.

It was night and it was getting dark, but Marianne, even in her black mourning dress, was nowhere to be seen.
There were no umbrellas or rain shields in sight, and it seemed as if they had just come in the rain.

“This… Come in at once!”

I looked outside and let Marianne in.
It was very stormy, so fortunately there was no one outside.

Marianne came in without removing her black clothes clinging to her body, her water dripping all over her body.

“Oh, my God! Are you okay?”

“Eva.
Bring me some more towels.
You are my guest.”

Eva went back to get her towel.

“Marie, are you okay?”

“I don’t want to go back…”

… What?

I stared blankly at Marianne’s face, where the rain and tears were flowing.

“To the cathedral… Where Philip is… I don’t want to go back…”

“…”

I am speechless.
Marianne has nowhere to go back to.
I don’t even have Liv.
Where Rebekah died,
Where the one who killed Rebekah rules.
You must go back to sleep.

Marianne reached out and carefully took her sleeve.

“Just one day… You can’t cook it… ?”

“Then. It doesn’t
Don’t worry.”

I quietly hugged Marianne and patted her on the back.

Eva escorted Marianne to her third floor.

“You can take a bath as soon as you are ready.
Rumi installed the capital and left.
I’ll boil the water, so if you pull this lever, water will come out.”

… Rumika, you left these things behind.

It’s a stone building, so it’s strong, so it’s like this.
It is also soundproof.
It must have been fun to decorate when I wasn’t around.
The money from the sale of jewelry, you spent it here.

“Marie, wash first.”

“Oh, no.
Camus, you worked so hard today…
I have a cold.
Please go in quickly.”

“No, I’m fine.
You are getting hit by too much rain right now.
Then you catch a cold, so go in first.”

In front of the bathroom, two mice that were hit in the rain are arguing.

Suddenly, Marianne grabs my clothes with her flushed face.
Shame on you, barely with her fingertips.

“… Then let’s do it together.”

“?!?!?!”

No wait
Wait, wait, wait, wait.

… That Rumika also came in dressed when I was taking a bath.
Rumica was something I sprayed with water in the first place.
But now this… You want to just come in?
That… Are there other people downstairs?

Marianne thought my blank face in panic for a moment was rejection.
She slowly let go of the strength in her fingertips and let go of her sleeves.
Osse chicken meat is visible on the nape of Marianne’s neck, who averts her eyes.

Bang!

“… !”

“Okay, come in.”

I took Marianne’s hand and entered her bathroom.

Widely.

The door closes, and there is an awkward silence.

“Ruler…”

Squeak, squeak.

I awkwardly lowered her head and gently took off Marianne’s clothes, who were stiff at attention.
The rain-soaked clothes were not easily removed, and Marianne awkwardly twisted her body to help me.

Iron puck.

“… And.”

Marianne’s wet clothes fall to her floor, revealing her neat black undergarments underneath.
It’s just plain underwear with nothing on it.
A very conservative line.
Religious underwear.
It was so wet that it dug into Marianne’s white steamed bun-like skin, and it was so erotic.
The raindrops from her wet hair flowed between her voluptuous bosom, over her navel, down her panties, down her thick thighs.

“Why… ?”

“It’s admiration.”

As he tries to untie her underwear, he crosses her arms in front of her chest to stop it.

“I-I will do it!
Kamu is… Kamyu’s clothes… Stir…”

“Huh? Okay.”

I have to take off her clothes too.
He takes off his clothes, roughly folds them, and puts them in an empty laundry basket.

“That… Me why… Are you standing?”

“Huh? Shall we sit down first?”

“No… No…
That’s not it, that’s…”

Turning around, Marianne hurriedly turns her eyes between my legs.

Come to think of it, this is the first time Marianne has been naked like this without Liv.
… Even with this, she feels Rebekah’s absence.
… Let’s just wash up first.

While standing around doing a quick wash, Marianne also takes off her underwear and puts them in her laundry basket.

Snap.

She first puts her body in her bathtub.

“Come in, Marie.”

“That… To… Stir… Shi, excuse me…”

She covers her chest with one arm and her bottom with one arm and twists her body.
But her slender arms couldn’t cover that voluptuous chest.

To the extent that there is more breast overflowing above and below her arms than covered.
Her lower body barely covered the important parts with her hand.
The wide silence followed line that contradicts the waist is really desirable.

Scrap, splash.

The slender white ankles that do not match the body are dipped in warm water.

“… It’s originally for one person, so it’s a bit narrow.
Sit still.”

“Oh that… Yes?
Haha, that ass isn’t that big.”

“…”

Who said what
I said nothing.

The white moon-like buttocks shyly passed in front of me and landed on my lap.

Shoot it

As the two submerged themselves up to their chests, the water overflowed a little.

“Eh, that… Stir…”

As Marianne sits with her back to me over my legs, she holds her hips out of my body.

“It’s okay, sit down comfortably. That’s right.”

“…”

I lightly press her on Marianne’s shoulder and make her sit down.
The skin on top of my thighs was soft and cozy like cotton.
