“Clo, you traitor! Get lost—!”
“That was close!”
“Lord Clo?!”
“Huh, what?!”
The Sister, who prefers to preach with corporal punishment, came at me directly from the front at super high speed and threw a faintly glowing fist at me.
What on earth does she want? And she’s really underestimating me if she’s using her fists against me despite kicks being her specialty. If you’re going to attack anyway, might as well do it with something you’re good at.
After confirming that I had evaded, Cyan laughed, as if to say that she had expected me to evade an attack of that level. She straightened her appearance and started explaining why she tried to punch me out of nowhere.
“I hated seeing you smile happily. That’s all.”
“Don’t you ‘that’s all’ me!”
“Don’t worry, I used the back side of my fist.”
“Fists don’t have back sides!”
Since it was glowing faintly, she must have also been using healing magic at the same time, but violence is still bad.
I wish she didn’t use the ‘I might hit you but if I also heal you, it’ll be plus-minus zero so it’s all fine’ reasoning to punch people. If she was trying to punch me seriously, I wouldn’t have been able to dodge it, so I can understand that she came at me with a speed that I could evade, but I was still spooked.
Lady Violet seems to have gotten used to it to some extent, but Ms. Kriemhild looks like she has no idea what in the world just happened.
“Actually, weren’t you having a mock battle with Sir Chartreuse?”
Since the stage had already been set, I gave up on stopping the mock battle and came to talk to Ms. Kriemhild while the focus was on it.
“Ah, yeah. We were having a good match until the middle, but for some reason his movements suddenly became sluggish midway, so I took the chance and punched him. His self-defense charm seemed to have exceeded its durability and he threw up. He’s resting now.”
Even if Cyan punched him seriously, an impact that’s strong enough to even exceed the durability of self-defense charm and make him throw up is crazy. Chartreuse has been training a lot, so he wouldn’t throw up easily.
Wait a minute, his movements became sluggish? I don’t think he trains so halfheartedly that he would get tired right away, so why… oh, maybe.
“You obviously fought him while wearing that Sister habit with a slit, right?”
“? Not obviously. This is my combat uniform, to start with.”
“Ahh… I see.”
In other words, Chartreuse was probably agitated because he almost saw something he shouldn’t have when Cyan was moving a lot for kicking. I feel like he doesn’t have much tolerance for that kind of thing.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. Rather, don’t you need to tend to him?”
“Ivo is watching over him, so it’s fine. Besides, he kind of didn’t want me around him.”
Then it can’t be helped. It would be better to not tease him needlessly.
… It’s a pain but I have to apologize to Chartreuse before he goes back. I’ll have to explain that her outfit is a result of Cyan abiding by the doctrine, and not because she’s an exhibitionist… no, the explanation won’t make much of a difference. The fact that she’s wearing those clothes without anything underneath won’t change.
“So, just as I was half-way warmed up, I came across the perfect person who also pissed me off, so I couldn’t help myself. That’s why God will also forgive me for this.”
“Your logic makes no sense! This is one of those things that God doesn’t forgive!”
She has committed at least two of seven deadly sins. It’s a different matter altogether whether Cyan was actually upholding them though.
By the way, what did she come here for? I hope she didn’t come here just to punch me. Not like it’s unlikely though.
“Anyway, I have a message from Ash. Apparently he wants to talk to you about handing over that pervert.”
“Tell me that first!”
Isn’t that clearly an important matter?
I resisted the urge to sigh, turned back towards Lady Violet and Ms. Kriemhild and said something before leaving. Cyan was also returning to where Ash was so it looked like she would come with me.
The two then replied and saw us off. It seems like they still have something to talk about.
“Well then, let’s go.”
“Yes sir~. Ash is in front of the church.”
I nodded and started walking towards the church.
When I looked back from a little distance away, I saw Lady Violet and Ms. Kriemhild talking happily like before. I’m a little jealous of Ms. Kriemhild for being able to bring out such a happy expression on Lady Violet’s face.
Then, after noticing that I was looking at them, Ms. Kriemhild started waving her hand to see us off. Seeing this, Lady Violet also imitated her and shyly waved her hand.
“Hey hey, they’re waving so let’s wave back~”
“Pipe down. Are you a kid?”
“But I think she’ll be happy if you wave back.”
… As I waved back despite the embarrassment, Lady Violet trembled in surprise for some reason, stopped waving and looked down.
And Ms. Kriemhild, who noticed, put her hand on Lady Violet’s back, whispered something in her ear and continued waving from that position. I can’t see her expression, but I noticed that Lady Violet’s face turned red.
“What do you think, Cyan?”
“‘Finish up everything quickly and go hug her already’ or ‘stop showing off, you bastard’, which one would you prefer?”
“Neither.”
“Coward.”
Shut up.
◆
“It’s so hot today.”
“I think it’s cooler today though… are you shy? Your face has been red ever since he said that he’s happy to be with you.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about… stop grinning.”
“I’m not. I just think it’s heartwarming.”
“Same difference. By the way, why did you suddenly ask something like that?”
“Hmm… you see. You’ve changed a lot from when you were at the academy, Vi. I was wondering if marriage changed people that much.”
“I’ve definitely changed.”
“I see. I’m glad. You have to take good care of Mr. Clo, okay? After all, he’s a husband who doesn’t treat you in a perverted way.”
“What do you mean? Oh, and Kriemhild, about next month――”
“―― I see. So, in addition to His Highness Vermillion… you’ll meet ■■■■ too.”
“… Yeah.”
