Chapter 110

Can’t Stop the Saintess (1)

Just because it was decided that Fresia remains by Kkanjuk’s side, couldn’t just go saying then the two live well~.

First the fact that Fresia’s will is very firm is unchanged.

Therefore proceeded the talk on the premise that Fresia remains together with Kkanjuk.

“Well, I’ll speak well to David or those kids. Hmm, should practice sad acting in advance?”

“Ancestor, really that... if asking Budul can meet Fresia-nim again?”

-Yeah, I’ll try to effort. But better to send signals with gestures than directly speaking. Might be heard by someone if wrong.

“If signal what kind of signal...”

-When time to pray clap three times in front of the slime and pray. Might do when I’m not watching so better to do in order of morning noon evening.

“A, understood!”

“Th, there! Ancestor! By any chance any words to leave to grandmother?”

-...When departing from the Magic Tower hit the back and injected courage so thank you convey.

“Yes! Ah, and... when the Saintess meets Saintess Fresia. Can I also exchange words with the ancestor? Compared to the ancestor insignificant, but w, want to exchange words about magic!”

-I don’t know that well about magic tools is it okay?

“Of course!”

-Understood. Ah, and... if possible wanted you to call Ventus not ancestor. No matter how I am a lich called ancestor feels too much like I aged a lot.

“A... yes! Ventus-nim!”

“Even becoming a monster cares about age, hyung.”

“Yeah.”

“Hoo, the heart is always youth of eighteen...”

“Hehe, if going to Chilture can meet Tongtong!”

Exchanging conversation first decided to make up a story in the way that the Saintess Fresia lost her life together with the lich.

But if only saying died together the picture doesn’t look good so decided to additionally direct one situation.

The so-called succession ceremony.

The lich that came to senses at the end of the battle.

But at that time Saintess Fresia was also in a state of suffering big injury.

The lich repented its own wrong and hugged Fresia who was a companion early.

Fresia left words of entrusting the church’s future to the next Saintess Amelia in the lich’s arms after.

Confessing the heart she hid to the Heavenly Law mage who became a lich and passes away.

And the Heavenly Law mage saying ‘the end I will follow you’ burned and disappeared together with the corpse of the Saintess who passed away.

Made such a story.

-...Fresia. At the end did have to put the c, confession scene?

“Secret love is also good, but I want to let the world know that I am yearning for you.”

Should say late love is scary.

Fresia who already confessed her love to Ventus was very aggressive.

-Y, y, yearning. Uh, hmm... th, that is so.

“Keup! Puhup! Look at being embarrassed. Kekekek!”

-Stop laughing a bit, Nellin!

“Ah~ what to do about the funny thing~.”

After the conception of the story to convey to the Holy City was decided, Kkanjuk opened a warp and moved the group excluding Fresia to the Saint’s Hill.

“Hey, will call right after meeting Tongtong so come out promptly, understood?”

-If I come out directly to the village will fall into chaos because of my aura. So if meeting come out outside the village in advance. Leave the slime.

“Why that?”

-There is a reason worth so please understand.

“Well, yeah. Then... pup, the two be intimate.”

-Uk!

“Everyone, please go carefully.”

“Saintess Fresia, if anything needed please tell at the next meeting. Me and Saintess Amelia will prepare somehow.”

“Thank you, Paladin Paulen. Ah right, Gracie?”

“Yes? Wh, why?”

Before the group leaves, Fresia last held Gracie’s hand and said.

“Now will be very confusing. But don’t worry. If you clearly can proceed on the proper path. Me and Ventus will help.”

Many shocking things rushed in, but among them the one who received the most shock Fresia thought is Gracie.

No matter what the person regarded as a teacher was revealed to be the culprit who killed the ancestor and the person who hoped for her own failure.

At Fresia’s warm words tears formed in Gracie’s eyes.

“Saintess Fresia... thank you!”

The shock hasn’t completely gone.

Honestly even how to live at the Magic Tower from now is vague and thoughts don’t come properly.

At least since the legendary hero her own ancestor and Saintess Fresia will help Gracie seemed the burden of the heart greatly lessened.

And after the group left, Kkanjuk really came to remain only the two with Fresia.

‘Th, now what to do.’

Kkanjuk hadn’t dated women even while alive, and even after becoming a lich.

Even so didn’t feel awkward toward women or excessively embarrassed or shy.

If so couldn’t have even traveled together with Fresia or Nellin.

But!

Being alone with a woman who openly said she loves himself was a completely different situation.

What kind of words should say.

No, more than that.

‘I, I... still haven’t properly said words!?’

Only said happy at Fresia’s confession but didn’t even say how he thinks of Fresia.

Of course atmosphere-wise the same as accepting the heart, but as Kkanjuk who as a mage has to clearly distinguish whatever this situation was still no different from uncertain.

If like this vaguely passing over and Fresia gets hurt without hearing the answer?

‘Th, that can’t!’

Fresia is a precious person who said she loves himself to the extent of saying okay even if becoming undead herself.

The thought of unable to make such a person sad pressured Kkanjuk.

While Kkanjuk was doing such pondering.

‘Did it... did it.’

Fresia was regaining coolness.

Didn’t regret the action just now, but even so had the awareness of moving too boldly.

‘Will cause trouble to many people.’

No matter how there is the next Saintess Amelia, knows how big her own existence is at the Holy City.

Clearly there will be many people who are sad.

Because of herself made Nellin or Amelia, Paulen, and other people lie.

But even so Fresia had no intention of withdrawing her choice.

‘Because can be by Ventus’s side with an honest heart.’

Because didn’t want to regret anymore.

‘Want to exchange words a bit more more. Want to see a bit more. A bit longer... want to be by the side.’

“Ventus.”

-Uh, wh, what. Fresia?

Even the appearance of being surprised from tension looked lovely in Fresia’s eyes.

“Huhu, aren’t you too tense? When fighting us you spoke so coolly.”

-Th, that... khm. Just wanted to show a somewhat plausible appearance to you all met after a long time. Now...

“Now?”

-E, embarrassed.

“Embarrassed?”

-O, of course! With a woman who yearns for me... alone how can not be embarrassed! Moreover none other than you, Fresia...‘

The words that Ventus is embarrassed looking at herself were happy.

To think has such thoughts toward herself who already became an old person.

Funny yet happy.

“Huhu, I have already become a completely aged grandmother. Even so embarrassed?”

Spat out words mixed with a bit of self-deprecation while happy at the loved man’s reaction.

-What kind of words are you saying, Fresia. Didn’t I say you are still beautiful.

“Yes? But that...”

-I am sincere. Thinking the current you is also beautiful.

“V, Ventus...”

“Moreover look at me. I’m completely a skeleton?”

The words of beautiful heard from the loved man, shook Fresia’s heart that maintained peace even in various storms.

‘Yes. I came to like that kind of appearance of yours...’

But that is that this is this.

Wanting to always maintain a beautiful appearance in front of the loved man was a woman’s heart, and the heart of wanting to always be by the side also didn’t change.

Therefore.

“Huhu, that’s right. Then when are you thinking of making me undead?”

Fresia was also sincere in the words of wanting to become undead.

The thought that becoming the same monster and always being by the side is much better than living together at most 20 years like this didn’t change.

Rather than showing the appearance of aging more, Fresia thought becoming the same skeleton is also not bad.

-That... sorry but Fresia. Can’t right now immediately.

“Why?”

-The magic of becoming a lich needs a bit more research. The magic of making a human into an undead with reason is clear. But to the end that is magic specialized for mages. For you a cleric to safely become undead need a bit more... research.

“Aah, I see. Regretful but... have no choice but to wait for that.”

Kkanjuk’s words were not wrong.

Actually the magic of becoming a lich is magic made on the premise of a mage using so to use on Fresia a cleric first more research was needed.

But there was also another reason.

First used the magic of becoming a lich only once while alive.

Kkanjuk also needed to look back at the formula first and retrace the memory again.

Also.

‘If making Fresia undead there is no more place to retreat. Then... this is almost no different from a proposal!’

Kkanjuk thought living by the side for life becoming undead together is no different from marriage.

Therefore thought if making Fresia undead before that he has to convey a proper confession.

‘C, cool. Have to think of cool lines! To live with Fresia from now... live? Ah!’

The pondering Kkanjuk recalled a very important matter.

-Fresia! By any chance not hungry?

‘Stomach? No. Not that hungry. Because still early for meal time.’

-Then have to hurry and think of a method. Even if I’m fine you have to eat.

“Oh my, that’s right. Ah, if jerky I have.”

-Can’t make you eat something like jerky! Wait a moment! Will find a method right away!

Kkanjuk folded arms and began quickly pondering a method Fresia can eat.

‘Aah, an appearance seen after a long time.’

No matter how became a skeleton the gestures done to find a solution when falling into trouble during travel were the same.

Fresia smiled and looked at Kkanjuk.

Because the appearance of the loved man trying for herself was a scene that makes the heart pound just looking yet gives comfort.
