There Is No Spring in the Stolen Field

“Luna?”

Seria looked around and asked me.

“Ah. Luna said she felt sick to her stomach for a while.”

“Really? I brought the saintess specially to introduce you to her?”

Seria tilted her head and put on a puzzled expression.

But don’t worry. Ceria.

Because the saintess will become more special with us from today.

“First of all, let’s have time to listen to the story of the village first. Isn’t that the reason you tried to call her in the first place?”

Seria nodded at my words.

“Then Lian. Can you tell us about the damage recovery situation in the village?”

The saintess, who had been sitting quietly without saying anything, opened her mouth.

“As you told me, it seemed that it would take a long time to completely restore the land that was terribly polluted by demons.”

It was the place where the great demons manifested.

No matter how much she was a saint, she did not expect that she would be able to remove the dark demonic energy dwelling in the earth at once.

“Still, it was successful in removing the magi from the children and villagers.”

“All?”

Seria asked her with expectant eyes.

“Everyone.”

Judging from her stern reply, it seemed that the saintess had really succeeded in saving everyone.

“Thank you very much.”

Sarah hugged her body tightly.

“…No. I just did what I had to do. The hero has nothing to thank me for.”

Maybe it was because of the trauma of the last time I visited the academy.

Even though it was obviously a heartwarming scene, the saintess looked suspiciously at Seria, who was kind to her.

Suddenly, the image of Seria slapping her on the cheek came to mind.

It was certain that people in the world would have been astonished if they had seen it.

“Then Yuwol-ah. When should I let Luna meet? Is it impossible?”

“No. I’ll call you to the lady’s room to see the lady’s condition.”

Seria asked me again if my offer was reluctant.

“You’re taking the saintess directly to Luna’s room?”

“It’s like dragging a sick lady out, and I thought it would be better if I personally called after the saintess rested comfortably.”

I tried to look reasonable, but it worked…?

Seria put her hand on her chin with one hand, seemed to think for a moment, then accepted my proposal.

“Yes. Well. Meeting itself is important. Then you will introduce yourself well. Yuwol-ah.”

done. it’s okay.

With this, we were able to meet Seria while keeping her isolated from Luna and me.

“Then, the saintess, stay with me in my room for a while.”

“Yo… with the hero?”

I could see that the saintess’ normally white skin was turning even whiter.

“What is it? The reaction?”

For a moment, Seria looked at the saintess with a straight face.

“…No. Okay. I can’t resist spending time with the hero.”

Other students around them watched the conversation between the two with a little questioning eyes.

Kairin stabbed my side with his elbow as if he couldn’t overcome his curiosity.

“Hey. Sirius. Hero. Did you fight with the saintess?”

she asked me in a low voice.

hmm. To be honest, it wasn’t a fight, it was a one-sided beating. the seria.

But the truth should not have been revealed.

“No. Look at that. Don’t they look good?”

Even when I saw them, the two of them were awkward and smiling, and it felt like a couple having an argument.

“I don’t think so?”

“Let’s just do that.”

I roughly skipped Kairin’s words and waited for Seria and the saintess to leave together.

It didn’t take long to finish the report, and the saintess left the seat with Celia.

ruler. Then, since this side seems to be ready, why don’t you go see my lady?

“Luna. I’ll go in.”

Upon entering Luna’s room, Luna sat quietly on the sofa and stared at the opposite wall.

“…Is there anything on the wall?”

“Dog star.”

Luna lifted her head and looked up at me.

“How did your talk with the saintess go?”

As expected, it was her reaction that seemed to concern me a lot about my plan.

“Luna. If you’re ready, I can call you here right now.”

“…okay?”

Still she seemed unsure of my plan.

It was worth it.

Even in my opinion, this was a double-edged sword strategy.

If successful, it was an opportunity for us to make our plans at the academy very easy.

But if the reverse fails. We had to be prepared to face the worst situation of returning to the Demon Realm as it is.

“Really. Yes, that plan works, right?”

Luna always valued certainty when it comes to handling work.

“With high probability?”

To be honest, I couldn’t guarantee 100%.

The success or failure of this plan depended solely on my unique magic ability.

My unique magic ability. And the feelings the current saintess has towards me.

Only when these two elements were fully interlocked could this plan succeed.

When I thought about the process of harassing the saintess up until now, I wondered if the emotion she felt towards me was dominated by fear.

The fear that the hero might commit suicide because of himself.

The fear that he might extinguish the only hope of humans by doing so.

The story was fast, if only it could amplify that feeling.

And I thought the physical abuse I was subjected to also played a part.

“You’ve prepared a countermeasure in case of failure, right?”

I nodded.

“I wonder if I didn’t come up with any countermeasures even after making up this.”

Even if I didn’t, I was the one who prepared the barrier magic that completely cut off this room from the outside world.

It is impossible to hear the sound in this room from outside.

Even if the saintess screamed or behaved strangely, it would not be detected from the outside at all.

With this device, all he needed was a little time to escape.

“Okay. Then. Call her over here, Sirius.”

“Yeah. I won’t let you down. Luna.”

I gulped and left Luna’s room.

After leaving the corridor and taking about ten steps, I knocked on Seria’s door.

“Is it June?”

Seria’s voice came from the other side.

“Yes. It’s me.”

Then the door opened and she greeted me with a smile.

“Did you come to pick up the saintess?”

“Yes. The young lady finally came to her senses.”

“No. But what did you eat that made you so sick?”

please don’t ask for details It’s just a made up story.

“I must have eaten the wrong meal last night.”

“Hmm… I see. It could be.”

Seria turned around and called out the saintess’ name.

“Rian! Come out. Yuwol has come to pick you up.”

The saintess who faced me one-on-one had a very nervous expression.

I probably couldn’t see it in Seria’s eyes, but I could definitely see her red eyes quivering the moment they met mine.

“Are you going to just introduce yourself and talk a little bit before it’s over?”

“Yeah. It won’t take that long.”

“Okay. Then. Come back here when you finish talking about Lian.”

“I understand. Warrior.”

Fortunately, Lian didn’t seem to notice anything strange about Luna’s existence, either because of my barrier or because her god’s eyes couldn’t sense what she didn’t see.

“Come on. Come this way.”

After leaving Seria’s room, the saintess and I stood side by side in front of Luna’s door.

“Go in.”

I grabbed the doorknob of Luna’s room, opened it wide, and pushed her slightly forward.

“Mr. Yuwol. This is…!”

You must have noticed! But is it late?

Pushing her in, I slam the door and lock it.

And what the saintess faced at the end of the hallway…

Princess of the Demon Realm.

It was Luna.

“Nice to meet you, Saint.”

The saintess hurriedly turned around and tried to break out the door, as if she wanted to get out of here right away, but she couldn’t help it.

Because I was blocking it.

“Oh, the saintess doesn’t seem to be happy with me.”

“Uh… why are you here…”

The eyes of the saintess, who were like demons, were stained with a light of astonishment.

“I guess you know who I am.”

As Luna slowly approached, the saintess could not overcome her fear and sat down on the spot.

Lian hurriedly tried to deploy his divine power, but he couldn’t help it in front of Luna.

If it had been an ordinary demon, it would have been impossible to break even a bone, but Luna’s thick blood overcame even that and moved forward.

“Isn’t that a harsh treatment for a wonderful hero who saved humans? Holy Lady.”

Reaching in front of us, Luna leaned down to meet Lian’s eyes.

“Our saintess has a beautiful eye color.”

Luna reached out and lifted her chin.

“…I have to go to the hero immediately!”

Her pitiful cry echoed through the room.

But unfortunately, it wouldn’t have reached Seria.

The moment I closed the door, my strong barrier locked this room.

“It seems that you have no intention of accepting my greetings. Sirius.”

Straightening her back, Luna gave me an order.

“Then could you help me to be a little more polite?”

“Yes. Miss.”

A black magic circle began to sway in my hand.
