Chapter 18: The Saint (1)
Chapter 18: The Saint (1)
She looks a bit stubborn, which is not my thing.
Id rather have someone with sexy features like Riches than that kind of stubbornness.
I cant help but feel sorry for Kane for being engaged to a woman like that.
Yeah. If I marry a stubborn woman like that, Ill definitely get busted. The real Kane, this bastard keeps trying to pull me into a mess.
Earlier, I felt grateful to him for letting me have a girlfriend, but now I realize that hes just dropped a bomb on me.
I was an idiot for being grateful for Kane for a second.
This is just plain stupid.
Eileen looked dumbfounded when she heard me break up with her.
I quickly turned on my feet before the sparks flew.
Then Ill leave first.
Cmon. Lets run.
I left the room, staring at the message that said Quest Complete.
Eileen stared blankly in the direction Kane had gone.
What? Suddenly?
Eileen stood dumbfounded for a minute, unable to comprehend what was happening.
Hed just walked out on her like that?
She was dumbfounded at first, then the blood rushed to her head.
Heh, heh, what?
She had originally planned to break up with Kane today. After all, he had been involved in an incident, and her family had been pressuring her to break off her engagement to him.
Eileen hadnt been able to stand the family pressure, and after thinking about it for a few nights, shed decided to go through with it.
But it still reminded her of the first time she met Kane, when he wasnt labeled a loser like he is now. He didnt have much talent, but he worked hard and had a decent personality, so he didnt make a bad impression on other people.
So when Kane came to mind, Eileen went to great lengths to make him feel less offended.
In the end, she couldnt even decide
But then he just said, Were breaking up, and this is all you have to say?
And not only did he say it, but he didnt look sad. He looked so relaxed.
I spent a few nights in my room trying to figure out how not to hurt his feelings.
This is ridiculous.
Its obvious that she wanted to break up with him, and he did what she wanted anyway, so I didnt hurt his feelings and everything turned out okay.
What am I upset about?
Honestly, Im pretty confident in my abilities and financial resources.
Character I dont know exactly, but I think Im pretty good and beautiful.
So even before I got engaged to Kane, I got a lot of confessions.
And you just dumped me without hesitation?
I mean, sure, he could dump me. I might not be his type, but it was ridiculous that he would just spit out his words and walk away.
Eileens face grew flushed. She rubbed her palms together to cool down.
Ha! Okay. Thats good. I was going to break up with him anyway.
And with that, she left the mansion, her eyes burning.
A week passed when Eileen arrived.
Whoa tougher than I thought.
Master, but youve got a little more stamina and strength than you did at first.
Then why are you avoiding eye contact?
Kersey stares off into the distance at the mountains in response to my question whistling.
For the past week, I have not been still. Deciding that even if this body is going to live and die, I need to have at least a minimal amount of strength, and so Ive been working out like crazy.
I started with the basics, strength training, stamina, that sort of thing, and then moved on to swordsmanship, aura control, and other things.
But is this really Thomas son?
Strength and stamina arent normal since hes been drinking all this time, but shouldnt he be a little talented in swordsmanship and aura control?
Honestly, I was expecting it, but Im not going to lie, hes no more talented than a normal person.
Yeah. Swordsmanship, yes.
Swordsmanship can get better, at least with effort. But I cant feel an Aura at all, to the point where I doubt hes even inside me.
Master. But are you sure you dont mind breaking up?
Can you at least say that with a concerned face?
Her tone is obviously incredibly worried, but I can see the corners of her mouth twitching upwards as if shes trying to be honest.
Maybe its a good thing I broke up with Eileen.
Well, its okay, it wont be a problem.
Honestly, my family wont care.
They wont know that Ive changed in the first place. Even within the family, its a rumor, and few people believe it.
Im pretty sure theyd rather be happy that I broke up with her, than not.
I bet theyve been trying to figure out how to break up without causing any damage.
And the way she looked the day she came to see me, it was obvious she was about to break up with me.
So I dont think the Eilers will be asking for anything from us.
In fact, I guarantee theyre dancing with joy.
Well, if theyre happy, so be it, they wont resent us or anything. By the way, are you giving support to an adventurer named Kim Soo-yong in the name of the David family?
Riche nodded, still pissed off by what had just happened.
Yes Master, but is there any reason to do so, isnt he the one who broke your guild?
Yep. Because I have to stay as true to the source material as possible.
Of course, its possible that the Constellation has gone to Kim Soo-yong again now, but you never know.
I honestly dont know what shes thinking, so theres no way to be sure she went back to him.
Therefore, it is necessary to borrow the family name and do the same as the church supports.
Unable to speak my mind out loud, I stroked the top of her head to calm her down.
I cant say exactly why, but from his point of view, he just got rid of a bad guy, so if we invest in him, hell continue to take care of the waste on the estate.
Y-yes, the hands.
Ah! Sorry.
When I stop petting her, she lets out a wistful sigh.
Keiji, who was watching the scene from the side, looks at Riche with purely innocent eyes and shakes her head.
Riche. Your face is as red as an apple!
Its an illusion. Junior.
Huh? I dont think its an illusion, does Masters hands feel good, Riche?!
Kersey answered without a care in the world.
Hearing her response, Riches regretful face instantly turned into a half-smile.
Junior. Looks like your break is over.
Ugh, huh? I dont think break is over yet.
No. Judging from the way youre talking, you look very rested. Master, well go back to training now.
Rishe replied firmly. Seeing her attitude, Kerseys pupils began to shake like an earthquake, as if she realized she had touched something wrong.
Yes, thank you.
Save me, master!
Its self-inflicted, Kersey.
No!!!
Just like that, Kersey was grabbed by Riche and dragged away.
Well, Ive had enough of training, lets go get some hidden items.
Slowly, I began to prepare myself for the original.
Leaving the mansion, I make my way to the priests-only market where the hidden items are hidden.
As I walk, the townspeople avoid me as usual.
Its something I feel every time, but its unfair.
I cant on my conscience prove that Ive done anything wrong, but people avoid me like Im some kind of monster.
As I walked along with a sullen heart, I finally arrived at my destination.
Unlike the adventurers market, there were only people in white robes and snow-white armor like that worn by paladins.
It was so white all around that it was like PTSD.
Its almost holy, even though youre just looking at people walking around.
Hey, you know, youre in such good spirits.
What?
Im sorry. I must have misunderstood you because Im still new here.
The person approaching from the church saw my face and shifted her stance at the speed of light.
No. Not even church sister.
Usually religious people dont skip anyone and are persistent in their chase, but this woman had apparently just seen my face, and her expression hardened instantly.
What the hell. Kane, what kind of fame does this fu*cker have!
Well, its better for me if I dont get approached like that, but for some reason I feel weird.
Its like being ignored by a neighbourhood dog.
Comparing religious promoters to neighborhood dogs is a little different, but the feeling is similar.
Eventually, the woman shoved the holy water in her hand back into her pocket, turned her attention to the next person nearby, and scurried away.
Yeah. Lets be positive. Whats to complain about?
Im not trying to win a mental victory by being hurt. Im just being sincere.
Yeah. Thats all Im saying.
***
Hmm I thought that was it, by the way.
I walked around the pure white temple, looking at the surroundings.
Its impossible for me to memorize all the terrain, no matter how advanced I am. In the first place, the hidden item Im about to get is from the very beginning of the play.
So even though I know where it is, I cant completely memorize the path to get there.
This is why maps are so important.
When I was playing, if I didnt know, Id just go straight to the map view setting, but without it, its not as easy.
-shhhh.
As I continued to walk around, I heard a familiar sound from somewhere.
What was that?
As soon as I heard it, I started walking towards it without hesitation.
The further I walked, the clearer the sound became.
After about 30 seconds of walking, I arrived at the location of the hidden item as expected.
At the same time.
[Goddess of Destiny wanted to see you!]
What is it, Damnit? Its a dream, isnt it?
I rubbed my eyes with my arm, wondering if it was just my imagination.
But contrary to my expectations, the message from the constellation is still there, right in front of my eyes.
Ah please f**k off.
Since, I didnt receive any messages from her, I naturally assumed that she was fed up with me not responding to her and had gone somewhere else entirely.
But that wasnt the case, and from the way she reacted, its clear that she left for a while, but I dont think she went to Kim Soo-yong.
[Goddess of Destiny wonders how you will escape death].
What?! W*F. I suddenly realize something.
Just as I was thinking that, I heard a very intimidating and creepy voice from behind me.
You stole my goddess, how dare you steal my goddess, you dont deserve to live, even if the goddess and the king forgive you, I wont, so Ill kill you, Ill kill you, Ill kill you, Ill kill you, Ill kill you, Ill kill you, Ill kill you . Ill kill you, Ill kill you, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE.
A cold sweat trickles down my spine. As you try to turn around like a broken robot.
[You have died].
The message from the regression appeared in front of me.
