I’m a Fake Saintess But the Gods Are Obsessed With Me

“Now, this is a service.”

I handed Noah a gauntlet with a better defensive holy stone than the one Noah bought at my store.

“Saintess! If you keep doing this, I won’t come back.”

“You said you wanted to show me a cool side at the martial arts gatherng.”

Soon there was a founding festival. And I heard that Noah will participate in the first act of the martial arts gathering as an apprentice knight in the Imperial Palace.

The martial arts gathering, which consisted of three acts, was an event to show off the skills of the knights in the Imperial Palace and to boost their morale, and was very popular among the people.

Most of the monsters that appeared in the first act of the martial arts were weak, but I couldn’t help but worry about Noah, who was still young.

That’s why I’m forcibly giving him a high-end gauntlet.

“Saintess… How should I repay this favor later…”

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, calculates how many years Noah has left until he reaches adulthood, saying that the day will come someday.]

[The God of Justice, Hetuse, looks at Oman with shaking pupils.]

“I told you it’s fine. If you feel burdened, do well and return it.”

When Noah was told that he could use it and return it, he forcibly accepted the item. And he bowed his head then greeted me.

“Then I will definitely return it.”

“Alright. I’ll be looking forward to this fight.”

At my words, Noah nodded with a firm face.

“I’ll show you an awesome sight.”

I smiled and nodded.

“Yes. Don’t push yourself too hard.”

Noah’s figure, which was like a child when we first met, was taken like a boy. And his walk, which was close to that of an assassin when he was in the Thief Guild, became confident like that of a knight.

I was happy to see Noah growing up. I didn’t give birth to him, but I feel proud as if I raised a child.

After a while, Noah received the gauntlet and left, and I arranged the holy stones.

[The God of Knowledge, Hessed, blesses you.]

“It would be better to arrange holy stones that are helpful for healing here… I guess for defense, I’ll have to write a description for each effect.”

At first, I tried to open a pet supply store, but people gave up the business because there were no people who carefully raised animals except for a few nobles.

And the one I chose was a shop that handles holy stones.

Items were being delivered from Lloyd Merchant, and as rumors spread, they became increasingly popular with knights and soldiers.

“Done.”

It wasn’t until the day got quite dark that tidying up was over.

“I have to go back now.”

I went to work two days a week and the other four days I worked as a clerk, so I was able to concurrently work as a saintess.

As I left the door, Dwayne was standing there.

“Ah, are you done?”

I looked at him and asked, frowning.

“Did Reihusd send you to watch me again?”

[The God of Art, Mond, is suddenly happy.]

“No. I came to buy a holy stone…”

A smile came out at Dwayne’s hesitant words.

Judging by the appearance, it seemed that he had really come to buy a holy stone.

“For what purpose?”

“Is there something to increase one’s stamina?”

I tilted my head.

“So… Even if your boss calls you to fight, you can endure it for a long time and not get sick…”

“Why? Who’s bothering you?”

[The God of Destruction, Ciel, growls as if telling him to be quiet.]

“I’m afraid I’ll run into the wrong thing again after going to the founding festival… But am I the only one who hears this growl?”

Seeing my curious look, Dwayne shook his head and his shoulders shuddered as if he remembered something scary.

“Hmm… Wait. In addition to boosting stamina, it should also have a fatigue recovery function. I see you have hearing hallucinations.”

Looking at him, I went back into the locked store and rummaged through the boxes. If that’s the case, there are new ones.

And as I was about to go out with it, I picked up another holy stone next to me.

“Now, here.”

I went out and handed a red holy stone to Dwayne, and he accepted it with a smile on his lips.

“Wait. You have to pay.”

“Ah, yes. Yes.”

Dwayne licked his lips, as if he was expecting it to be free.

“It’s originally 50 franc, but I’ll make it 35 franc with a 30% discount for acquaintances.”

”Eh? Is it really that expensive?”

“This is cheap enough. There’s almost no margin left.”

[The God of Knowledge, Hessed, advises you to raise your margins, wondering what will be left from doing business like this.]

“Well… I understand.”

Dwayne pulled out his pockets, searched, and handed me 35 franc.

After receiving the money, I also handed over the other holy Stone I had brought to him. There really isn’t much left if I do this, but it was a special gift because there were days we spent together.

“This is a service.”

Dwayne accepted the amber holy stone with a bewildered face.

“This yellow holy stone… What effect does it have?”

“Beauty.”

Dwayne, 22 years old, with a face of at least 35 to 40 years old.

Although he seems to believe that he is young, I have never seen him with a woman.

“Ah, if I look younger here, the dignity of the knight commander…”

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, denigrates Dwayne’s worries, saying that they are the most useless worries in the world.]

“Don’t talk nonsense and take it with you.”

I squeezed a 50-franc amber holy stone in his hand and gave him a strong look.

***

“It’s fine. I will participate.”

After stopping Reihausd from saying that he would go to the founding festival instead of me, I rode the carriage to the Imperial Palace.

The silver dress Daisy had picked out for me swayed beautifully, and my hair that fell to one side added elegance.

I had to see Noah’s martial arts show, also there was one more face I wanted to see after a long time.

“Saintess~~! Please have a safe triiip!”

Daisy, who had been presented with a beauty stone from me this morning, waved vigorously at me.

“Kyuuuuu.”

Kyuu, standing on Daisy’s shoulder, was waving its short arm as well.

“Saintess. The beauty stone seems to be quite effective. I don’t know if this is my misunderstanding…”

After leaving the temple, Dwayne’s voice was heard outside the window.

“Don’t you think priestesses keep looking at me these days?”

[The God of Art, Mond, clicks his tongue.]

“It’s true that it works, but what you said later is an illusion.”

I said firmly and closed the window.

“Ah, aren’t you too cold-hearted?”

I heard Dwayne’s grumble, and laughed,

Dwayne faced the years too head-on for it to be fully covered with a beauty stone. Still, take good care of it from now on.

The road to the Imperial Palace felt longer today.

I leaned back on the backrest and closed my eyes for a moment.

And when I opened my eyes after falling asleep without knowing it, I heard the sound of the carriage door opening.

The moment I lifted my heavy eyelids and looked away, I saw burning red eyes and red hair.

A tall black uniform that fits his body, and a red cloak that flutters behind him. And a long sword worn around the waist… All of those things brought me to my senses.

Kyle held out his hand with white glove on.

“It looks like you came while you were tired.”

“I fell asleep. Because I’m a little drowsy.”

I moved my feet with a smile. Eventually, holding his hand, I got off the carriage, but I sprained my leg, probably because I was half-asleep.

“Ah.”

Fortunately, however, I didn’t fall. Because he hugged and supported me with his broad chest.

[The God of Destruction, Ciel, wags his tail and blushes.]

[The God of Benevolence, Oman, measures the width of his chest.]

[The God of Love, Odyssey, loves his firmness.]

The cool scent from his body stimulated the tip of my nose.

His close-up face filled my eyes. Dark eyes were on me for a long time.

[The God of Art, Mond, acknowledges his face, but shakes his head, saying that he doesn’t like red hair and eyes.]

[The God of Death, Kairos, stomps his feet, saying that his strength and sexy characteristics match the ideal yandere.]

My heart was pounding, my face was hot, then I hurriedly straightened my body.

“I’m sorry.”

Yet he didn’t care, he took my hand and straightened me up.

“Alright.”

His voice sounded a bit pleasant.
