Somehow, The Villainess Who Regressed in Time Lost Her Magic Power, so She Turned into a Secluded Maiden

“Oh, I forgot about this at the church…”

“Yes, it seems the clergyman has come to deliver”

“So, what about the priest?

“You said you were leaving as you were, but I thought the lady would like to say hello.

We’re waiting for you in the reception room now. ”

“Yes, Sarah, thank you”

As I was reading the book in my room, Sarah came in to me with a single voice. I had in my hand the hat I wore the last time I went to church.

After a walk outside with the kids, I had left them at the table in the room and forgotten.

I wrote to the cleric, “I forgot my hat, so I want you to leave it until the next time I visit”.

But the cleric seems to have come all the way here to deliver it.

I pinched the book I was reading and headed with Sarah to the clergyman’s waiting reception.

“Sorry to keep you waiting”

Upon entering the reception room, the clergyman did not sit in a chair and looked out the window at the garden.

And when I noticed this one, I smiled calmly and thanked him for one thing by turning his body towards me.

“Go ahead, sit down”

“Thank you”

Sitting down to face the table with the clergyman, a samurai, who had just brought a wagon with pots and cups on it, prepares her tea.

“Thank you for taking the time to bring it.

Sorry for the inconvenience. ”

“No, because it happens to be something I had errands near the Lordship Hall.

Besides, they even saw your face, so it’s useful. ”

“Oh no…”

The soft grinning cleric smiles and flushes me to make me look sorry.

He’s really sweet.

“Speaking of which, it looks like you’re doing a lot for the kids. Thank you.”

“No, I’m still at the stage of discussing it with my parents, so there’s nothing I can promise you.

Besides, I wonder if it would be good for this realm to review the way education is conducted throughout Marcel’s territory. ”

Yes, I wondered if I could enrich my education more by engaging with the children of the orphanage and listening to advice from the clergy.

Right now, there are schools in the territory that can go between the ages of 10 and 14. However, most of the children of merchants who actually go to school require letters and calculations because of the cost of attending the school.

As a result, orphans have no alternative to lower-paid jobs if they have no special abilities.

As a result, even if you have a family, you are likely to be poor.

But the word of the cleric who said, “A Future Child,” that word was a big one for me.

I can’t do the environment I was born into. But can’t I give you every chance I can?

I want every child to have the power to change it on their own, just as I got a chance to start over.

To do this, we have to build on it. Knights and magicians also need their best efforts, but without their original qualities, they are played in the first place.

But academics are different. Knowing and learning will make it possible to broaden the world and thereby create new paths for ourselves.

That being said, there are no infinite financial resources.

It could even end with a dream story. However, we will still explore whether something can be done, and will the future be opened by the way it is?

“I still have no power whatsoever. That’s what I regret and I feel itchy about my teeth.

But the clergy showed us the way so we could take a step forward. ”

“No, that would be what you had originally. It was your courage that stepped out.”

A priest who listens to my words and answers them calmly at all times without denying them.

I exhaled one furiously.

“No, I’m still a coward.

There’s really something I need to do first. But I’m scared… and my legs are trembling. ”

When I’m with this cleric, I honestly expose my wonders and feelings.

Even though it’s something that people can’t talk about such as their weakness and anxiety, I put it into words about the peace of mind that they accept.

I’m sure he’ll listen to any story with a kind face. I have something to make you think so.

Around this guy, it’s a calm wave like a lake.

Quiet, it looks like a wave wrapped gently.

“Still, are we going to move on?

“… Yes”

And I’m not just spoiling it.

My feelings and other gentle purple eyes seemingly swayed only slightly at the words.

“In the meantime, I told you, didn’t I?

He said your place is cozy. ”

“Yes.”

“I’m sure I’m originally a weak person. My grandfather and father brothers became priests because they were priests. He’s a merely flushed man who aspired to be a priest with no ambition.”

“Weak, etc…”

Just a person to be flushed…

I feel uncomfortable with the word of the priest.

I find him a kind man full of compassion.

Peaceful he looks very straight in the core.

It doesn’t seem very flush to me to be in this position of clergy.

Besides, I didn’t know your family were all clerics.

I was not least surprised by the circumstances of the priest I first heard.

Many people will be saved by the way they face each and every one of them, admired by many in the church.

But as everyone does, he probably keeps bothering with a lot of things just not showing up on the table again either.

Still, I can lean on people and reach out to people in need right away. It’s not a fancy thing, but I don’t think so when I say if I can do that at all.

The cleric in front of him closes the eye lid once before opening it.

Those eyes look forward jiggly as they look away somewhere.

“No, I never even thought about fighting it from the beginning.

You don’t seem strong at first…… just because… doesn’t mean you will never be flushed. It was strange at first. ”

“… Yes”

“I can’t change. But you’re not.

You’re going to want to see what happens to you from now on.

… that’s why you’re attracted. ”

Words like weak sounds I’ve never heard before.

But the last word was a small whine. For that reason, I couldn’t hear what kind of whining you made.

To me trying to listen back, the cleric made a grin to end the story with an embarrassing grin, “Forget my circumstances”.

I just had to smile back in silence, too, to the atmosphere of the clergy’s inability to step any further.

Tell the clergyman who takes his seat to rush off to the front door because it’s time for the children to wait.

Coming together to the entrance hall, I realized that the cleric was staring at a certain point.

“What’s wrong?

“Ah, no.”

Turning haphazardly as surprised by my voice, the cleric pointed to the flowers in the vase.

“Because it was my grandmother’s favorite flower. I remembered my family earlier, so I missed how they were doing.”

“Well, you are. Haven’t you seen your grandmother in a while?

“Yes, I haven’t had a chance to go home since I graduated from seminary.”

“Really? I’m sure your grandmother would be delighted to see you now.”

“I hope so.

I think I’ll send another letter. ”

I feel smiling at the light-hearted cleric.

I imagine that I’m sure the priest’s family is also as gentle and loving as the priest.

And I dropped him off leaving with the words, “I’ll see you at church again,” he said.

“Nyer.”

Shortly after the clergy left, I hear voices from behind as if they were waiting.

Looking back, a clo with sweet scum around his mouth approached him. He hugs the approaching clo and when he pays for the scum in his mouth, Clo shakes his neck left and right to dislike it.

“You were eating sweets again.”

The laughter leaks.

It’s cute, though.

There you go. “Lady!” I heard Sarah approaching in panic.

“Sarah, what’s wrong?

“It’s just tough!

When Sarah came to me, she gave me a letter.

Sarah is looking like she’s in a pressing hurry, and when she looks around, the servants are starting to prepare something like they panicked.

What? What?

What’s going on?

In the unique atmosphere of this situation, the force of the arm holding the clo is only slightly strengthened.

Cro then jitters through his arms like he doesn’t like ‘nya’ and runs away from Piong and his arm.

“Is something wrong?

“Earlier, His Highness sent me.

His Highness said he was on his way here. Besides, it might be time to get there… ”

Huh?

Your Highness?

If you think Master Theodore left a week ago, now, Your Highness?

What, what’s going on?

Why in my head, it only comes to me.

I can tell Sarah to go back to her room and get dressed again and again, but Sarah’s voice also passes from ear to ear with her head where her thoughts are stopped.

And I was finally able to start moving after being gently pressed against my back.

Around that time, in front of the mansion.

There is a figure staring blankly at the priest as he leaves the mansion on a horse.

But in the midst of the mess in the mansion, I didn’t even notice the shadow.
