Became the Butler of the Second Heroine of the Harem

chapter 20



20 – The Saint

A saintess who is only mentioned in the novel. That person made a shocking statement right in front of my eyes. About why I was not chosen by the constellations unlike other people. Yes, there must be a sun, a star, and a moon. But did this person just come to tell you this?

“Marina-sama…I wonder if you were looking for me just to convey this…”

“It is the mission of the Holy Gwang Church to guide the lost and wandering stars to the right path. Do you think I took the risk to come here just to say this?”

The saintess put on a serious expression again. Straight blue eyes met mine.

“But what to do when there are no priests of the moon…”

“The priests of the moon do exist. I asked the stars. But I just shook my head because I didn’t know exactly where they were.”

“Okay…I see…I shook my head so I thought you weren’t there at all.”

“I misunderstood you. I’m sorry. First of all, if you have any questions, please ask me anything. And I have something to solve…”

A saintess drinking her coffee with her eyes closed. I also looked at her, took a sip of her lemonade, sorted out her thoughts, and started asking her one by one.

“How did Pixies know that I was chosen by the moon?”

“I read the letter and asked Stella. Usually, she answered right away, but it took a long time depending on the day. The moment I thought something was wrong, she replied that you had been chosen by Dahl.”

“Then you won’t know my age until I find the priest of the moon?”

“I’ve come up with a little… Way, but I don’t know if it will work.”

“If it’s that way…”

With a rattle, the door of the cafe opens roughly. Church members in robes and knights in silver armor were looking around the interior with their eyes wide open. Surprised to see them, the saintess put her bread hat on deeper and hunched over, drinking only her coffee.

They had a few words with the owner of the cafe, then went inside and asked questions of the people sitting in the cafe. You must be looking for a saintess.

One by one, they passed the others and came to the table where we were. I looked at them as they approached and said.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m from Seonggwang Church. Excuse me, but we’re looking for someone. Could you help?”

“Who are you looking for?”

“We are looking for the saint of the church, Magellan Pixis. Have you ever seen someone like this?”

They handed me a piece of paper with something drawn on it. A piece of paper with a picture of a saint wearing a silver nun’s uniform with a light smile on it. When we first met her, she was crying, and now she was wearing other clothes, so I didn’t know her, but in the picture, she looked so elegant that she was described as a real saint.

“Oh, I think I saw it. Where did he go…Just think about it.”

I’m right in front of my eyes, that person. At my words, the saintess stared at me so hard that my face was pierced, and the coffee cup she was holding was shaking so much that there was a thick ripple.

“I’m new to this place, so I don’t know the exact name. I think I saw him entering the market from the…Closest… Part of the academy entrance. After that…At the second intersection on the left I went down the road.”

In times like this, it’s better to say something plausible than to say you don’t know, and it can be misunderstood and deceived. Like the lie in The Fairy and the Woodcutter where the woodcutter went the other way to the hunter while hiding the deer.

They bowed their heads with satisfied faces and smiles as if my naive eyes and clumsy explanation as if it was a first-time trip worked.

“Ah, thank you for your help. I wish you the best of luck in the starlight.”

“May the luck of the starlight be with you.”

I also bowed my head and greeted them. I am now writing the church greeting that I learned from Father Marcel in the past.

The saintess drank or pretended to drink coffee until they left the cafe and disappeared through the window. Because I’ve already drank it all.

“It’s all gone, Holy Lady.”

“Shh! Seriously, do you know how anxious I was when I said I saw it?”

The saintess is staring at you with an ax eye. She took a deep breath as I laughed and she seemed to relax. After that, Dodo ran to the counter and brought her another cup of coffee. The coffee here seems to suit your taste.

“Anyway, I don’t know if that method will work, but let’s try it.”

“Can I do it now?”

“Hmm…Now, if you do it in a place like this…Yes…Have you seen what other church members are like talking to the stars?”

“I only saw it once. I saw Father Marcel in our manor talking to me when he was trying to find out my age. His eyes flashed a little…”

“What I’m doing…It’s not shiny for a moment, it’s so shiny that there’s a halo behind my back…It’s difficult to get caught in a place like this.”

The saintess hesitated after drinking a cup of coffee brought by the staff. How the hell does it shine…

“That would be… Difficult.”

“Yes…”

The saintess sighs deeply. She must have suffered quite a bit. Looking at this saintess, I have a question.

“Did Marina…Run away from the church for me?”

“That’s right.”

“You take such a risk?”

“As I said before, it is our church’s job to guide the lost stars to the right path by taking risks.”

“Aren’t you tired?”

“Of course it’s difficult, but nothing makes me happier than when I read a letter every day and receive a letter of thanks from someone who helped me.”

A benevolent smile befitting the title of a saint. The person who had been crying and trembling until just now went somewhere and showed the real saintess.

“…The saintess is a real saintess.”

“Then is the other person a saint? Ahahahaha. I hope so. I want to help people who really need help, not just read letters and talk to Stella.”

As for this person, if she hadn’t been a saintess who conversed with the god of starlight, she would have been called a saintly woman. This is why, if this person disappears from the church, they must be struggling to find it.

“Then please help me one last time. I want to find the priest of the moon.”

It doesn’t matter how old you are to find and know them. Because it’s not important right now.

“Yes, my zodiac sign, the compass point, guides young lost stars. I’ll find you no matter what. But it may take a little while, is that okay?”

“It’s okay. I’ll look for it.”

“Right…I’ll give you this.”

As she rummaged through the pockets of her clothes, she pulled out one of her things and handed it to me. A small piece of paper. What is written…

“…One-time coupon to meet the saint?”

“Anyway, since I couldn’t meet anyone, the person I met told me to hand this over and meet at the church…”

I was at a loss for words about her church life, which was more shocking than I thought.

If it was a black company in this world, wouldn’t it be Seonggwang Church?

That’s only for the saintess.

“It’s okay. It doesn’t matter what Sirius became or what he was before. He’s my butler. That doesn’t change.”

Others said she should keep her word. That way you can become an adult. She looked at Shaula with confident eyes. Seeing that, Shaula admired a little and took a sip of tea.

“You’re great. That makes me feel like watching.”

“Huh? What are you watching?’

“No. Nothing.”

A chance to see the stuffy, yet sweet and sweet side of your childhood friends right next to you. Right in front of her eyes were the main characters of the romance novels she had read during breaks, confined to her home to study.

At her first meeting, it was just a desire to see a butler she liked and make it her own, but now, after investigating the past of the two, they are mouth-watering people.

Even though she can’t be the main character, a romance novel is unfolding in front of her eyes. Will there be people who will do it every time?

I tried to calm her excitement, but Europa was disgusted by her sinister look and the excited rough breathing that came out of her mouth.

‘Shouldn’t we just be friends…Come quickly, Sirius…’

Must have heard the cry in her heart, the front door opened and Sirius entered the room.

“The guest…Ah, it’s Miss Shaula.”

“Hoho, Sirius. Where are you going now?”

“I went to the market because I ran out of ingredients. There was someone in the middle who needed help, so I was a little late. Did you finish the sandwich I made, lady?”

“…Yeah, it was delicious. It was the most delicious sandwich I’ve had recently.”

Europa nodded her head discreetly. Since she was in front of her, she couldn’t just get angry, so she just talked about her sandwich.

“I’m glad it suits your taste.”

Sirius put the ingredients down in the kitchen and nodded. At his action, Shaula’s eyes flashed and she smiled strangely.

“Rather than that, Sirius, what if you just ate the bribe I gave you and leave your seat? It’s really not worth giving.”

“hahahaha, think about it carefully and tell me when you need it. The day will come when you can use it anytime.”

“Huh? Do you have confidence?”

“Sure. I’m the butler of a certain family.”

Watching the happy conversation between the two, Europa felt his heart stabbed. He said he had given up on Sirius, but why are you having such a fun conversation? Unknowingly, she was boiling with jealousy from the bottom of her chest. As if her eyes were on fire, Shaulla, realizing that she was the end of her staring gaze, rose to her place.

“Then I’ll wake up soon. Good snack, Ms. Europa. Please take care of me from tomorrow?”

“…Okay. Let’s go. The tea was good.”

Her nonchalantly, Europa sits in her seat and greets her. Seeing her like that, Shaula, who headed for her front door, swallowed her saliva and put on a happy expression. Nothing moves faster than inciting jealousy to narrow the gap between two tepid people. As in her novels she has seen, she took on such a role this time.

‘Still, seeing that there is a reaction, it seems to be bothering me.’

She was a little hesitant because of her mild reaction in her conversation with her. As she was about to leave the front door, Sirius came up behind her.

“I’m sorry. Maybe it’s because I’ve offended the lady, I didn’t expect the honored guest to notice.”

Sirius lowered his head. The form of the mind was added to that figure. Her actions today ended here. Now, all you have to do is listen to their conversation with the wiretapping device that Europa secretly installed in the next room.

“No, it’s okay. Next time you can talk to Miss Europa and clear up the misunderstanding. Then do your best.”

“Ah, yes…Strength…?”

When Sirius tilted his head at her incomprehensible voice, she covered her mouth with her hand and went into her room laughing hohohohoho. She shook her head at the sight of her and approached Europa, and she opened her mouth with her careful notice.

“…Are you gone?”

“Yes, he left. He said something strange to cheer up.”

“…I see…”

As if she had made up her mind about anything, she stretched out her arms toward him. What is she asking me to do? Five seconds of time, not long after we faced each other without saying anything. Europa muttered like a mosquito crawling.

“Do what you did yesterday…”

“Yesterday…”

“That… It happened when I came all the way from the academy building…”

“The person who asked me to drop me off yesterday…”

“Don’t talk…Quickly…I can’t get to bed because my feet hurt.”

“Yes, if it’s your lady, I’ll listen.”

Sirius slowly cradled into her arms and hugged the princess. Europa was staring at his face while lying on the bed until he landed on the bed that was a short distance away. Feeling burdened by that gaze, Europa grabbed Sirius by the sleeve as he tried to leave the room.

“Do you have anything to do now?”

“No…In particular… If there is one, it’s about trimming the ingredients…”

“Can’t we do that later?”

“Right…Isn’t it? I think I put them all in the refrigerator.”

His ominous premonition resounded after a long time. In this situation where she is lying in the flow of this conversation, it must be…

“Then let’s lie down here and sleep together.”

“…We both grew up as we grew up, but sleeping together…”

“Uh huh.”

“…I’ll just change my clothes and come back.”

In the end, Sirius had no choice but to obey his master’s words. She changed into her simple dress, not wanting to leave her wrinkles on her tailcoat, and as she put on her half-closed eyes, she patted him on the side. At the signal to lie down, Sirius lay down on the bed with a stiff movement.

“…Well done…”

With a word of praise, I fell asleep in his hard yet cozy arms. Sirius became her body pillow after a long time.

That’s a very hard body pillow.

And Shaula, who had been listening to their conversation, writhed in joy and wriggled on the bed like a loach.

“Ah…So delicious…”

I was staring at the ceiling with a happy heart as if my heart was about to explode.
