Chapter 428

Saintess… Saintess?

“Well then Teacher Neil, please clear the kitchen as soon as you can.”

I chuckled and reminded Teacher Neil as he finished his meal and was about to leave his seat.

“… I will handle it.”

Oh, he averted his gaze.Mumumu… noticing that I was staring at Teacher Neil, Kurogane tapped the table with his finger.

“Neil, you better fullfil our Lord’s wish as soon as possible. Lord’s wishes are our wishes.”“True that. If you don’t hurry it up, I’m going to burn it all myself, you know?”“… Yes!”

Being reminded by Mashiro as well, Teacher Neil gave a very good reply as he realized he cannot offend the two Sacred Beasts.… Byakko-sama and Suzaku-sama were nodding in agreement… I will pretend I didn’t see that.I wonder if those two have no intention of keeping it secret.

As Teacher Neil gingerly left, Byakko-sama set up a barrier around the dining room.He’s doing things so spontaneously as always, doesn’t he!?

“Missy~! Gimme something good to eat!”

Byakko-sama who was sitting opposite to us extended his hands as he prostrated on the table.You have no intention to consider our situation after I explained Miria the situation huh, Byakko-sama?

“Tora, will you stop it already!”

“Ow!”

Sei swiftly struck Byakko-sama’s head with an iron-ribbed fan. L, looks painfu…

“You are always and always… after causing Miss Cristea so many troubles too…”“Buuut, weren’t we eating this bad food all this time? I also heard you sighing about it, you know?”“…! Shut up!”“Owowow! I’m just telling the truth.”

The expression on Sei’s face changed a color a little after being exposed by Byakko-sama, so he retaliated by rubbing the iron-ribbed fan against Byakko-sama’s head. Ouch, that looks so painful…

“He is right though, aren’t you also fed up with the food here, my Lord? The feathers of mine I am so proud of are going to dry up because of my bad eating habits…”

Suzaku-sama said dejectedly while touching her flaming-like red hair.… Those are not feathers, right? Eh? No way are those really feathers?

“R, rather than that! I would like to apologize to Miria-dono for deceiving you until now! Even though I had my circumstances, I’m truly sorry for keeping silent about my real gender!”

Sei promptly stood up and lowered his head to Miria.Miria was startled by his sudden actions, but she quickly pulled herself up together and straightened his posture.

“You need not apologize to me. I was told earlier by Cristea-sama that there were deeper reasons for this and that you had no other choice. Besides, Cristea-sama seemed to be enjoying herself very much on the days you visited. I knew that a person like you wouldn’t have ill intentions.”

Miria said as she smiled.… Our Miria is an angel… no, a Saintess? She might be a Goddess, actually.I need to contact Otousama and appeal to him to raise her salary in the name of offering.

“Thank you… we will be companions living in this dormitory together, so let’s get along in the future.”

Sei said with a relieved expression.

“You must be inconvenienced being so far away from your homeland. I will assist you with anything I can.”“I will be thankfu-…”“However. This is a matter of reputation now, so could you please keep an honorable distance? May you never cause Cristea-sama to feel sad or troubled.”

Miria kept her Saintess’s smile plastered on her face, but… what is this, this pressure.It feels like “You better not lay your dirty hands on my child, you hear?” or something…

“Y, yes. Of course.”

Byakko-sama was grinning for some reason on the side while Sei was replying with a cramped face. What a bad smile…

“Byakko-sama too.”“Huh? Eh?”

Miria pointed her smiling spear at Byakko-sama.Affected by the pressure, Byakko-sama reseated himself on the chair.

“Please do not cause trouble for Cristea-sama, I sincerely ask you… yes, sincerely, okay?”“O… ou.”

The power of Miria overwhelmed Byakko-sama.… Miria-san? Huh? You are a Saintess… right… right?

Let’s just say we’ll be working hard to improve our eating habits in the academy!
