Chapter 87 – This Is All Because of You, Mr. Stay.

A week before Stay became the owner of the building, that is, around the time when the status window was awakened, and he was checking his ability to operate the status window.

“Sigh… Sigh… Mr. Stay is truly a very generous person. How can someone do that? He did this and that to me and said all kinds of things to me. Does it make sense to leave without even seeing his face? No. That’s not possible. It won’t work. This is ignoring me and insulting me. “I am no one else, but Saint May Ruina…”

May Ruina, who was discharged from the hospital after being cured, was heading to the Vatican in her sacred chariot.

“······We were good. He whispered warmly and affectionately to me, calling me nice, pretty, and cute. He stroked her head, hugged her tightly, and buried her face in his strong chest.”

Because she did not want to admit staying that she had been abandoned without the slightest regret, the anger that Mei Ruina had forcibly burned turned into sincere regret.

For Mei Ruina, the man named Stay was just an emotional trash can to relieve her accumulated emotions.

Stay was the perfect person to be an emotional trash can because he could be criticized as much as he wanted due to the difference in rank, couldn’t run away from that position due to personal circumstances, had great patience, and had fun reactions.

Mei Ruina, who is forced to show only her saintly appearance to everyone because she is a saint, is the only person who can reveal her true colors. That was stayed.

However, this relationship was not because Stay was a special person to Mei Ruina, but simply because she decided to use him as a trash can for her emotions.

It was a perfect relationship between A and Eul that May Ruina could throw away at any time if she wanted to.

However, that relationship completely reversed just a month ago, and now, Stay has become a very special person to Mei Ruina.

“How could Mr. Stay do that to me… He even made a promise to me. He said that he would also receive compensation for treatment from me, but if he received money from someone else, that would be the end of it…”

Even at this moment, when she had escaped from her vegetative state and regained her power, wealth, and honor as a saint that she had longed for, her mind was filled with only him.

“Ugh… I don’t like it that much…”

At that time, Ruina Mei, whose anger had forcibly subsided due to her disappointment exceeding her limit, was about to realize the reality that she had been abandoned by Stay, who was hidden by her anger.

“Saint, we have arrived.”

“Hot?! Ah, I see. Thank you for your hard work.”

With perfect timing, the coachman’s voice announcing their arrival cut off Mei Ruina’s awareness of reality.

······Yeah, that’s right. I am Saint May Ruina. It doesn’t suit me at all to be such a jerk just because of someone like Stay!

If her coachman’s call had been delayed by even three seconds, May Ruina would have cried out for her stay and fallen to the ground, but after realizing that she was a saint, she covered up the reality she was in with the reality she had achieved.

“Is it so. I am the greatest hero with all the power, wealth, and honor. I am the hero who saved the world, so why should I be in such trouble because of a man like that? That doesn’t make sense! Come to your senses, May Ruina! “Let’s come to our senses and look at reality!”

With her pride in being a saint, May Ruina shook off the existence of her stay from her head and opened the door of her carriage with a proud face like a hero who saved the world.

After sacrificing herself to save the world, it would not be strange for Mei Ruina to be praised as the greatest hero of all time.

Click. Kkeikik-.

Waaaaa-!!!!

When she opened the door, what unfolded before her eyes was the cheering and welcoming of countless people.

“······Look.”

Mei Ruina, who had all the eyes of so many people waiting for her, whispered softly in a voice that no one could hear.

“The person who will regret it is Stay, not me.”

As the world’s most popular hero, Saint May Louis, she smiled brightly and waved her hand politely and gracefully toward the crowd of people welcoming her.

Holy woman! Holy woman! Holy woman! Holy woman!

She just smiled and waved her hand, but many people cheered and happily shouted out her own name.

The situation that every hero seeking fame dreams of was a natural reality for Mei Ruina, and that is why she was able to take her steps with an ecstatic mind, as if she were drunk in her dreams, even as she lived in reality.

“······.”

If it were just two months ago.

“Saint! Thank you for saving the world!”

“Ahaha, as a hero with the nickname saint, it is a duty that must be fulfilled.”

“Saint! Thanks to you, we can live with our legs stretched out like this! Thank you so much!”

“Ahaha… “Seeing you all show such happy faces is a great joy to me that cannot be compared to anything else.”

“Saint! Thank you so much for coming back in such good health!!!”

“······Haha, thanks to your prayers and support······.”

Holy woman! Holy woman! Holy woman! Holy woman!

The citizens’ era name contains only feelings of praise and gratitude and does not contain any negative emotions.

If it had been two months ago, before she became a vegetable, she would have felt only great joy in this situation, but for some reason, Mei Ruina could not be completely happy.

Clearly, she felt joy at the fact that so many people were praising her, and it was a situation that Mei Ruina, who was acting as an ideal saint to be praised by the largest number of people, could not help but wish for.

“······Aha, ha.”

Mei Rui, who was in a situation she didn’t want, was just empty.

The corners of the mouth are forcefully pulled up, the hands are mechanically waved, and the answers are devoid of emotion.

Her joy at the arrival of the situation she had hoped for was nothing more than an empty joy that did not reach the depths of her heart, and her sense of joy from the praise of countless people who satisfied her self-esteem did not make her who she is now.

Holy woman! Holy woman! Holy woman! Holy woman!

The emptiness in her heart grew as people chanted the name of a saint with their own emotions.

Mei Ruina couldn’t understand her reason… No, she had no choice but to ignore her reason, so she chewed her lower lip slightly so as not to be noticeable to people, unconsciously avoiding this unpleasant situation. I blamed it on someone else

······This is all because of you, Mr. Stay.

It was someone else’s fault, an empty, unreasonable thing that could not reach anyone.

※

The triumph of Saint May Ruina, the hero who saved the world, ended successfully.

A crowd so large that it will be recorded in history gathered around the Vatican, and the procession of the saint, who walked gracefully through the center of it, was already spread around the world through numerous media.

Of the three heroes who sacrificed themselves for her world, Mei Ruina became the most popular with her greatest showmanship.

“······.”

Sitting in her office in the Vatican, she just stared blankly at her ceiling.

If it had been her before she became a vegetative state, she would have had a busy day mobilizing all the resources at her disposal to make schedules and contact the media in order to turn this situation into a direction that was as beneficial to her as possible. She didn’t do that now.

“······Ha.”

She just stares into space with blank, unfocused eyes as she lets out a deep sigh as the world she has saved is gone.

Tiring-

May Ruina, who was just blanking out without any intention or purpose, heard the sound of ‘Heavenly Notification’, a communication artifact that can only be used by the highest priests of the Vatican, ringing in her ears.

The mana-filled sound produced by the ‘Heavenly Notification’ was able to convey meaning to the listener because the sound itself contained will.

“Is this the competition…? Well, you should do it. Because I returned…”

The meaning behind this ringing is an order to attend the convention.

The Great Council was the highest level meeting of the Vatican that could be held only when the Pope, the head of the Vatican, and a majority of cardinals agreed.

It was a meeting with absolute authority that even Saint May Ruina could not miss, and knowing that the purpose of holding this meeting was for her own return, she got up from her seat with a shaky gesture, unbecoming of a hero who saved the world, and walked around like a zombie. I walked towards the conference room.

“Hot?! Come on, saint! Congratulations on your return!”

“······.”

“Ooh, wow! Yes, you are a saint! Thank you so much, saint!”

“······.”

“You really came back…! Thank you, saint!”

“······.”

May Ruina walked briskly, listening to the voices of the clergy belonging to the Vatican, which she would never have ignored for the sake of image management, in one ear and out the other, and arrived at the conference room without opening her mouth even once.

Crash. Gwaik-

May Ruina opened the pure white door, which was impossible to pass through unless she was a high-ranking priest, without even thinking about it as if she was entering her own room.

Then, the eyes of many of the highest-ranking clergy, including the Pope, who had come before her and took her place, were focused on her.

“······Haha, it’s been a while. Everyone.”

She didn’t feel like talking, but her opponents were the highest ranking clergy in the Vatican.

Mei Ruina, as she did when she made a comeback, forced herself to raise the corners of her mouth and smile her saintly smile at those looking at her as she greeted them.

“Haha, welcome, saint. Seeing that the old woman was okay… She was so moved that she almost cried.”

The only person who responded to her greeting was the Pope, who was seated at the head of the conference room, opposite the pure white door.

It was natural for a nice-looking old man to greet her with a dull voice and watery eyes, making her feel emotional as someone being welcomed, but Mei Ruina was just smiling, just like she did the first time.

This is because the Pope was the most conniving, dark-hearted, and conniving person that her May Ruina knew.

Showing emotions to a 1,000-year-old poisonous snake disguised as a human being, who never misses even the slightest gap and plunges the sharpest dagger he can use at the optimal time to inflict the most lethal blow, was tantamount to suicide. .

But things have changed a lot now. No matter how much the Pope does, he won’t be able to put as much pressure on me as he used to, even though he is a hero who saved the world. Perhaps today will be a formal meeting to praise my improvements. I don’t really want to fight with those dirty old men today, so I’ll just stay still.

Just stay still while maintaining appropriate tension.

This was the posture May Ruina decided to take today, and she controlled her emotions to maintain it as she walked towards her own private seat, opposite the Pope.

Again. Again. Ttogak.

Since her seat was right in front of the pure white door, she could get there in just four steps.

When May Ruina was just one step away from taking her seat, the Pope’s voice reached her ear.

“No one could find a cure, and everyone unanimously said there was no hope of resuscitation. “Seeing the saint wake up and walk in good health… I feel like God is taking care of her.”

“······.”

It’s just a formal greeting, and if it were normal, it would just go in one ear and out the other and respond with ‘I see.’

But for some reason, those words, words that boiled down to gratitude to God, sounded very jarring to Mei Ruina now.

“······Ha.”

Not your imaginary god. Thanks to Mr. Stay.
