I smiled and asked him, “Are you okay, Archbishop?”
He hurriedly shook his head. Then I saw something in his arms.
It was a familiar bag.
“Huh? This is……?”
Apparently, it’s the crossbody bag I’ve been looking for.
“Oh, it’s yours. I picked it up……”
Ruzef’s red, swollen eyes stared at me.
“Please don’t make me worry anymore,” he grunted.
“I’m sorry for worrying you.”
“Archbishop!”
Yuanna, who was watching the situation from afar, ran out. She looked at Ruzef then looked around us.
“Is everyone okay? Young Lady Floné, I knew you’d be all right.”
She took my hands and sighed.
“Are you okay, Saintess?”
I asked, looking Yuanna up and down. Fortunately, she seems to be fine.
“Oh, don’t worry about me. I’m quick on my feet and good at hiding, so I’m fine.”
Yuanna put her hands on her waist and smiled as if it was no big deal.
“How did this happen?”
“Before that, we should also hear the explanation from you, Young Lady. What the hell happened?”
At Arthdal’s question, I shook my head and sighed. I think the talk will be long.
Then something in my dress pocket wriggled.
“Oh right. Eunji……!”
I forgot for a moment because he was so quiet in my pocket.
“……Young Lady? What’s that? Ahhh!”
Yuanna looked at my dress pocket with a wondering face, then her eyes met Eunji’s–who poked his head out–and screamed.
Eunji was startled and hid in the pocket of my dress again.
Diego drew his sword and pointed it at me, and Enoch stood with his back to me–as if protecting me–and pointed his sword at him.
“Please step aside, Your Highness. I’ve been wanting to ask her what it is. It seems to be an unknown monster.”
“Monster or whatever, it is unacceptable to point a sword at Margaret.”
“The same goes for you. Margaret is startled, so put your sword down, Crown Prince.”
Enoch was like that in the first place, but now Kayden is also a little too much. I looked at them with a bewildered face and took Eunji out of my pocket.
“It’s a bit long to explain how I met him……”
Eunji wriggled on my palm, then rolled his eyes and looked around.
At that time, Yuanna, who walked leisurely between the vigilant Arthdal and Diego, bowed her head and looked closely at Eunji.
She said, “It’s cute when I look closely.”
“Hey, Saintess, it’s dangerous.”
“Saintess, please stay away from that.”
Arthdal and Diego spoke to Yuanna at the same time, but she didn’t care and just shrugged.
Perhaps because he knew that Yuanna wasn’t a threat, Eunji looked at me for a while, then turned his body to show his belly, and showed his aegyo[1] to Yuanna.
[1] Kind of adorable and cute behavior.
“Hm?”
Yuanna smiled beautifully at Eunji’s aegyo. She, however, immediately stepped back, as if annoyed by Diego’s repeated calls.
“Eunji, say hello first.”
Of course, it was a joke. But he looked around as if he understood what I was saying.
Then he tilted his head cutely, wagged his tail, and looked at me. His sparkling eyes seemed to ask, ‘Is this how to say hello?’
“It’s like a puppy.”
Yuanna, who was standing far away, said so and laughed.
Then, Eunji looked at Arthdal and Diego—who was still pointing his sharp sword at me—and immediately opened his mouth wide.
Suddenly, a small fire the size of a fist erupted from Eunji’s mouth.
‘Huh?’
Arthdal and Diego hastily backed away in surprise. Fortunately, the fire was not big enough to reach them.
It seems Eunji doesn’t like Arthdal and Diego, who look threatening to me.
Everyone looked at me, and I looked down at Eunji.
Eunji looked at me with bright eyes as if asking, ‘Did I do well?’
Eunji, you didn’t say that you know how to breathe out fire. Also, is that how you say hello?
It seems that early education should be done properly.
***
We decided to dispose of the corpses of the monsters first and then go back to the hut and talk about the situation.
If you don’t completely dispose of them, other monsters may come.
“Ugh. I hate touching it.”
I tried to lift the spider’s leg but ended up slumped down.
“Cheer up, Young Lady.”
Yuanna was sitting on a tree and watching us leisurely.
“Excuse me, Saintess. Can you help me?”
“I have a weak stomach.”
I was surprised to hear her answer and burst out laughing. Right, she is such a person.
She wasn’t the type to hurt others but wasn’t the type to help either.
Just then, Kayden picked up the giant spider corpse, draped it over his shoulder, and looked back at me.
“Margaret, you rest there, too. We can do the rest.”
“I know. With you, I have nothing to worry about.”
At my words, Kayden smiled triumphantly.
“Still, I want to finish all of this quickly, so I want to help.”
As I said so, I lifted up the severed spider leg with all my might.
When the corpses of monsters were piled up in a large empty lot without trees, Eunji spouted fire at them. There was no need for a lighter.
When I was wiping the sweat off my forehead and struggling to move the spider’s leg, suddenly, the weight of the spider’s leg became lighter.
Surprised, I looked back to find Yuanna holding the other side of the spider’s leg.
When I looked at her with a puzzled face, she smiled at me.
“I remember what you said, Young Lady.”
“What did I say?”
“To be respectful and considerate.”
Eventually, Yuanna and I lifted the spider leg together and started to move. I had no idea what she was thinking, so I furrowed my brows.
“If I do this, will you be my person, Young Lady?”
Excuse me, Miss Female Lead. Have you given up on making me your ‘maid’ and now want me to be your ‘person’?
“I wish I had something like that. My people for me. I’m tired of being used only for someone else’s benefit.”
She said something unexpected.
“What do you mean?”
“Oh, the Pope bxstards. I didn’t do it because I wanted to be a saint. I was threatened for the livelihood of my family.”
It was an unexpected story. I was speechless, unable to find a proper answer to the viciousness of the Popes.
“Oh, I envy you, Young Lady. When I go back, I will live a happier life.”
Yuanna looked at me with envious eyes.
‘When I go back….., I’ll have to live happily as Margaret. Because I’m Margaret now.’
“I’m half serious about asking you to be my person. Contrary to rumors, it was amazing that you, a noble girl born with a golden spoon in your mouth, did not hesitate to do things that other nobles aren’t used to, and solve problems skillfully. That’s why I wanted you on my side. I have a weird personality.”
“Yeah, you’re weird. You only think whatever’s convenient for you.”
“Hahaha. Basically, humans are narrow-minded and think only of the good they have experienced, right? After all, you are always fun, Young Lady.”
I really don’t know what Yuanna is thinking.
In the meantime, we arrived at the vacant lot. We threw the spider’s leg into the pile of monster corpses burned by Eunji’s fire.
I smiled at Yuanna and then slowly walked away from her. And I continued to focus on helping Ruzef and others move the monster corpses.
Finally, all the monster corpses were burned and the sun began to set.
Eunji quietly went into the pocket of my dress. I patted my pocket and picked up the crossbody bag I had left on the ground for a while.
The strap of the crossbody bag fell off, so I couldn’t carry it. Eventually, I held it in my arms and glanced at Enoch.
“Have you all eaten?”
“Do you think we did?”
Arthdal, who was following me with a tired face, answered.
“Yeah, I don’t think so.”
First of all, Kayden and I seem to be in good shape, so we should go hunting together.
*
After a long walk, we finally came back to the hut.
“Ugh.”
As he entered the hut and sat down, Enoch groaned in pain and seemed to have endured it the whole way, but when he got to his place, it seems that he couldn’t bear the pain any longer.
I glanced at Ruzef and he brought a first aid kit.
There was no need to use the first aid kit because no one had been hurt so far, so Yuanna, Athddal, and Diego looked at the medicine box with puzzled faces.
I took out bandages and medicines and prepared to heal Enoch’s wounds. The bandage I used to treat Kayden last time was in good condition because it had been washed and dried.
‘Because there aren’t many bandages……’
It was better to recycle things that could be recycled as much as possible.
“Enoch.”
I called Enoch, half asleep on his bed. With an expression of pain on his face, he slowly opened his eyes.
I slowly put my hand on his cheek, it is hot.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
I smiled and asked him, “Are you okay, Archbishop?”
He hurriedly shook his head. Then I saw something in his arms.
It was a familiar bag.
“Huh? This is……?”
Apparently, it’s the crossbody bag I’ve been looking for.
