It got faster.

What’s changed?

‘Oh, of course, a lot has changed.’

It’s no use thinking about it.

By the way, seeing Fiona in person. I’m looking forward to it.

Fiona she knew was like a little bird.

Her voice is so beautiful that when she sings, animals like birds and squirrels come and listen to it. Her hair was a blonde-platinum and she had bright, light green eyes.

She was a small, thin woman.

“Commander, what else do you have in mind?”

Next to her, Lorocomo tapped Nina with his foot, and she finally came to her senses. Faced with Louis’ soft smiling face, Nina bowed her head.

“I’m sorry. For a moment, I thought about what kind of person she was······.”

“Yes, that’s why something quite interesting is going to happen in the capital.”

Louis’ eyes peeked down at the document. Nina swallowed her breath in surprise when she met his violet eyes.

I don’t know why, but he was very angry right now.

“Then Dame Nina, please choose the Elite Knights that will go.”

“I will.”

Louis gave other instructions in turns, after that, Adrian told Nina to stay, and the group disbanded.

Nina asked with a whimper.

“Sir Louis, are you alright? What’s going on?”

“I’m fine.”

Louis alternated between Nina and Adrian.

“I’m glad you both grew up so well.”

It was never an environment where young children could grow up well, but they did it.

Adrian frowned slightly, and Nina said embarrassed.

“What’s wrong with you? What’s going on?” (Nina)

“Louis.” (Adrian)

Louis just laughed at the reaction of the two, it was impossible to get an answer from him, Nina asked with her shoulders stretched out.

“So why did you ask me to stay?”

“To talk about the Saint. If you don’t tell me things in advance, how will I know what preparations to do if things just suddenly pop out of nowhere?”

Louis crossed his arms and said his goodbye.

“I’ll be out first.”

Adrian looked at him with an unsatisfied face and nodded. As Louis went out, Jack came in as if he had waited.

“I think the General Manager is angry.”

That was the first thing he said without even so much as a hello as if he had been there all the time.

Well, everyone here knew he was indeed hiding there from the beginning.

“Maybe he couldn’t talk because of me.”

Jack scratched his chin awkwardly, and Adrian shook his head.

“No. I’ll talk to Louis separately.”

“Me too, so what is there to talk about the Saint?”

“The thing is, it seems like the Saint can purify and destroy pieces of the fallen spirit.”

For a moment, Nina was embarrassed, ‘What do I do if you tell me something I knew all along with such a serious face?’ and soon realized that it had to be a very surprising fact for her.

“Uh, um, wow. Really?”

Jack and Adrian put on strange faces for a moment.

“You’ve got a weird reaction.”

Nina sagged her shoulders at Jack’s words.

“No, I mean. Is that really true? Not their propaganda?”

Jack’s face became serious when she talked in a way that she could not trust that information for anything.

“I’m telling you, she demonstrated it after announcing herself as a saint.”

“Demonstration? She took the piece and showed people how to destroy it?”

“Yes.”

At Jack’s words, Nina couldn’t understand anymore.

Wasn’t they trying to summon the fallen spirit lord by collecting the pieces?

Why were they destroying them?

Have they always verified the saint in that way before?

‘I know she could purify the pieces, but still······.’

Strangely unable to remember the details, Nina groaned as she grabbed her head.

“Nina.”

“Yeah?”

As I lifted my head, Adrian said firmly.

“We are not going to take any actions regarding the saint.”

“Huh? Can we even possibly do that?”

“No. I’m sure the temple would ask for the opening of the Violet Forest, and I’m sure they will send the saint this way, but I don’t know what they are going to do with her.”

In addition, there were issues with the cult.

Jack spoke with a contemptuous look on his face.

“And I think they are deeper into the temple than what I initially thought, I’ve got a rough idea of the cult structure, but it’s completely wrapped in the secret of who the leader is······.”

That’s the problem, Jack shook his head. Adrian said cynically.

“If you cut it from the bottom up, it will eventually reach the top.”

For the past three years in Luverne, most of the pagans and cults were removed by the Duke.

The new plants are called gifts from the spirits, and those who serve the fallen spirits are threatened with issues.

Quite naturally, rewards were given to those who report dangerous religious beliefs.

The divine organization may remain, but the Duke of Luverne has created an atmosphere of extreme abhorrence of religion wherever he goes.

Missionary work would be impossible.

“Is it a high-ranking figure?”

“Yes, I know for sure he is a high-up person, but the key is how high he is and how far he has rooted. It isn’t mere empty words that the Saint could be a member of the Cult.”

At Jack’s words, Nina nodded saying, ‘I suppose.’

Adrian said.

“So don’t make any demands to the saint and don’t take her requests.”

“Okay.”

Nina replied happily, and Adrian was caught off guard.

“Really?”

“Yes, really.”

He had a face that had thought Nina would immediately attack the temple, kidnap the saint, and purify the Violet forest.

‘Well, if I didn’t know the circumstances, that might have been the case······.’

In the course of the story, they were supposed to cross paths anyway, and the barrier is now a spirit barrier. Because it was safe without the risk of bursting, she had more room in her mind.

Adrian nodded.

“All right.”

“Then, can I go? I’d like to hear from the General Manager.”

“Okay.”

As Nina greeted him and left the room, Jack said.

“How long will you leave it alone?”

“What?”

“Dame Nina.”

Adrian looked at Jack and he shrugged.

“The requests for marriage partnership for Dame Nina are not a few, are they? She’s even penpals with the Prince.”

“So.” (Adrian)

“So?” (Jack)

What if some tenacious bastard appears out of nowhere and she gets stolen?

Jack looked at Adrian with that face and he said.

“I’m still fine.”

“Huh, until when will that ‘ still fine’ last? I don’t want Dame Nina to go anywhere else.”

Adrian grinned as he looked up at Jack.

“There are already only a few people I like.” (Jack)

“······I don’t want to force Nina to do anything.”

“Honestly, no matter how I see it, you two already seem like you are dating but just not putting on any label.”

“No, it’s not.”

Jack laughed because Adrian spoke decisively.

“It’s okay how things are now.”

Adrian said it again.

No matter how far Nina goes, she will come back if he needs it.

Then it was fine.

“Lord Louis.”

Nina took a peek through the Office of the General Manager and found that Louis was absent. Instead, a busy administrator looked at Nina.

“How about the General Manager?”

“He hasn’t come in yet.”

“Okay.”

Where is he?

Tiptoeing, Nina began walking past the office.

When she encountered a servant in uniform, they greeted her politely. Vivian says their greetings don’t need to be accepted one by one.

I think it’s efficient for both sides.

The interior of the silver manor was extremely luxurious and concise. The entire area was covered with Arakasan marble. Especially imported green marble with a shield pattern, that was the crest of Duke Luverne, carved with mosaic and laid on the floor.

There was a huge chandelier hanging over it, which was expensive even looking from afar, but there were no other small decorations. Every big one was just expensive.

The garden was also beautifully decorated with a rare collection from Badun Island in the north to Arakil in the south. Mimina loved this kind of thing, so she led the remodeling of the garden herself, and now the garden was praised by everyone.

Shall we go to the place where Lord Louis’ favorite hollyhock flowers are in bloom?

Nina hesitated for a moment, and a sharp voice came from the garden side.

I glanced out of the window and it was Randell and his apprentice.
