First of all, to get to the point, my plan was successful.

I ordered those two perverts to do everything from their clothes to their promotions if they were going to praise me, and they did their best, even eating away at their own lives.

The statue in the middle of the Alun Estate changed from a bikini armor to a dress praying, and the items sold nearby also changed to a similar design.

Of course, there was some backlash. I chose to make a sudden change when my statue, already in armor, was already in place.

So I stood in front of the people wearing the same dress that the statue was wearing.

‘Gentlemen. A warrior cannot always be a warrior. Even a hero who has made a name for himself on the battlefield must take off his helmet and talk to his family when he returns home.’

‘Home is not a battlefield for me. It is my resting place and a place where I can live as myself.’

‘So I hope you all see me as a human being.’

‘Ah. Before I leave, I have one more thing to say. I understand that women wear armor similar to mine, but why do men show off all their skin? What confidence do you have? Even if you show your ugly side, it will only hurt me. Please show some shame… Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!’

Although I couldn’t say everything I wanted to say because of Papa’s intervention, I still achieved my original goal.

Both tourists and locals were pleased with my new statue.

‘Thank you, Lucy. Your speech has made the knights reluctant to adopt new armor.’

Because it also prevented bikini armor from spreading across the continent.

From what I heard from Faby, it seems there were a lot of people who had negative feelings from the beginning.

It’s just that I was the one wearing the armor, and it was Mama who recommended it, so I couldn’t bring myself to complain.

Well, even I would probably get yelled at if I was suddenly asked to wear bikini armor after wearing cool armor.

No.

It wasn’t like he was going to curse, he actually did.

Just a while ago, I even asked the person in question what happened to his hair to make his daughter wear armor like that.

‘Before we disconnect, I have a favor to ask of you. Lucy. Would it be okay if I used what you said to preach?’

‘That’s not what I said.’

I told him the truth because my conscience pricked me, since I had only recited the script my grandfather had written for me, but Faby thought differently.

‘If that’s what you said, then it’s what you said.’

‘No matter what. No. That’s okay. Just do whatever you want.’

‘Thank you so much, Lucy. I’ll do my best not to be a bother to you.’

I foolishly believed that Faby would do well, so I thoughtlessly advised her to do as she pleased, and she did not betray my expectations and gave a wonderful sermon.

To be precise, it betrayed my expectations in a good way.

Her sermons were so excellent that they inspired many influential people.

If I had known that Pavie would put that much effort into it, I would have stopped her.

If I had known that the people who heard Faby’s sermon would flock to see my statue, and if I had predicted that the Aln Estate would become even more famous because of it, I would have done everything I could to stop Faby!

“Would it make a difference if I said no? Even if it weren’t for Faby’s sermon, the land of Aln would have been filled with people.”

After hearing my story, Joy lost her identity and started to speak properly.

This is difficult. A fool should say something stupid like a fool. If he tells the truth, his character will collapse.

“I’ve never considered myself a traitor.”

“Really? Do you often do stupid things without doing it on purpose? That’s amazing. That’s a talent.”

“… Haa. So that’s why you ran away from the territory.”

“Running away? I wish you would tell me the truth. I just ran away from a city full of perverts who lust after young girls.”

Anyway, I tried to endure it since it happened because I allowed it to happen?

But the things that happen in Yeongji far exceeded my expectations.

I was resting inside the mansion when I heard sobbing from outside.

Even while training with the knights, I could feel that the knights were being careful.

If I were to go outside, a path would open up around me like it did at the art school, and people would line up on either side and pray.

What annoys me the most is that every morning the offerings offered to me are delivered directly to me.

Accessories, clothes, armor, weapons, food, letters, money, and all sorts of other things are piled up in front of me!

Why on earth are you doing that!?

If you have money to give me, just use it on yourself!

If you’re going to waste money, why not donate it to a good cause?

Why are you pushing it on me!

No need!

Even if you give it to me, I won’t use it!

Even if you don’t give it to me, I’m richer than you!

You know what really pisses me off?

If I tell you not to give it to me, you’ll be humble and try to put more in my pocket!

For now, we have made plans to use the money for a good cause in conjunction with the church that gave it to us, but it is still a burden.

Thanks to you, I am expressing my gratitude every day even though I don’t deserve it!

If I don’t do that, I feel like I’ll just become a piece of trash who only takes money!

“Isn’t it because you keep responding by saying “I don’t like it, I don’t like it” that they keep coming?”

“Put yourself in that situation. It’s a stabbing feeling in your stomach.”

“I’ve been having a stomachache for a different reason lately.”

“Huh? Why?”

“In the Patran family, the master and the god of magic fight every day.”

The argument between the two, who had no elementary school age, is said to have become even more intense as both sides were able to sit on the ground.

“Because neither side has any intention of admitting defeat. As soon as the story ends, you keep bringing up new topics.”

“But why do you have a headache? Just leave the two of you to suffer.”

“I’d like to do that too. Now, the wizards of our family and the wizards of the church are joining us.”

If it’s natural, then it’s natural.

There is no reason why the followers of the God of Magic would not help him.

There is no reason for the people of Partran not to help Erginus, who has become Joy’s teacher and naturally a guest of the Partran family.

The fight between the two gods naturally became a battle of pride between the wizards of each country, and it seemed that it was growing in scale.

“It’s not just the teacher’s pride, but also the family’s pride that’s at stake, so I couldn’t help but get involved. I can’t remember the last time I slept comfortably!”

“So you ran away here?”

“Yes! I wanted to be somewhere without magic, even if only for a little while!”

“…Excuse me. You two.”

Bissi, who was sitting next to us, opened her mouth and crouched down.

“I have a stomachache too.”

“Why? What did you eat badly yesterday?”

“Even a shaman should eat properly. Should I send a cook for you?”

“My stomach hurts because of you two!”

Us? Why? All we did was chat.

“Don’t tilt your head as if you don’t know! You are the ones who can burn our territory with just one word!”

“No need to say anything. If I cause trouble here, no one can stop me.”

“That’s even scarier!”

“Don’t worry. I won’t bother you, I won’t bother you. ”

“Eww!”

Originally, Adri would have intervened at this point, but Adri is not here now.

Because she left for the Fairy Forest to find a new body.

“So you don’t like me? How much have I done for you so far?”

“That. But.”

“Ugh. Okay. Okay. I see. Tomorrow I’ll have to go around talking about people who hate me.”

“I’m sorry! I made a mistake! Please stay here forever!”

“That’s right. Joy. That’s good. Right?”

“Haha. Okay. ”

Bishi, with a sad expression on his face and his head bowed, sighed and lamented his situation to himself.

“Can I ask you one thing? Why did you take refuge in our territory? There’s nothing here that you two would like!”

“That’s why it’s good.”

“That’s right. It’s nice to be able to be comfortable without anything.”

Joey needs a place to rest without having to talk about magic, and I want a place where I can lie down without worrying about anyone’s gaze.

In that sense, the area near Bishi’s house is the best. This place, with its long plains, is a small, secluded estate, so you can enjoy a quiet atmosphere.

“You can go to where your other friends are.”

“Didn’t we think about that?”

First of all, the holy places where there is a fave are an exception.

It’s obvious that there’s going to be chaos there as soon as I show my face.

Because of that, I’ll be disturbing Faby who is working hard.

But it’s not like I can go to where Arthur is. If I sneak into the palace, I’ll have to deal with the nobles.

Now you can’t raise your middle finger and make excuses about your Messagaki skills.

I’d rather not go than respond with a fake smile.

So now the only place left is the Kent family.

“If you go there, you’ll get tired quickly.”

“They’re all nice people, but honestly, it’s not a place to go to rest.”

Therefore, this territory is the best for resting comfortably. If you understand, then accept it quietly.

“And it’s not like being friends with us is completely disadvantageous. There might be people who would give up their lives if you put them in between us.”

“At least not me. I know my place.”

“Right. That’s why this is more appropriate.”

“Yes?”

Ignoring Visi’s question, I got up, stretched, and reached out my hand to Joy.

Joey skillfully weaved his teleportation magic and grabbed my hand.

“Next time I’ll bring a suitable gift.”

“Are you going?”

“Why? Shouldn’t we go?”

“No. You just seemed really excited about something.”

“Is that obvious? That’s difficult. Facial expressions are important in a casino.”

I’m going to start messing around with that place now, so it’ll be difficult if you come at me after seeing my laughter.
