After a while, Camilla fell asleep again as she ran out of energy.
I quietly closed the door to keep her from waking up. And I walked towards my room.
My heart was pounding.
‘Now, let’s sort it out.’
Although it was a sudden situation, Camilla’s holy power was revealed today.
Many priestesses witnessed this, and now Camilla’s presence in the temple will grow out of control.
To think that she is a priestess with holy power great enough to save the dead. Everyone may doubt my authenticity.
‘Then what will happen to the contract?’
I bit my lip in nervousness.
Elium, the highest temple of all temples, the saintess only dwells there. And Camilla saved a life that was already dead today.
“…”
Both my mind and heart were complicated.
“Saintess!”
As I walked out to the hallway, I heard Daisy’s voice.
I stood still.
“Here you are. I came back, but you were out… I thought you went for a walk.”
The speed of my pounding heart gradually slowed as I smiled.
“How have you been? While you were in the mine, I prayed every day because I’m worried about the Saintess…”
“Daisy.”
“Yes, Saintess.”
I looked at Daisy while holding her hand, said.
“I missed you.”
Daisy’s eyes widened at my words. And she smiled broadly like a flower blooming.
“Me too, Saintess. I missed you so much.”
Fake saintess Ariel.
As in my previous life, I thought there was nothing really mine.
The temple is always a place from where I have to leave, and so are the ties.
Yet deep down I realized that wasn’t the case. Maybe I have grown attached to a lot of things here.
Maybe even if I hadn’t signed a contract with Diego, I might have been greedy for this place.
I guess I was thinking that this is where I really need to be.
“Saintess, I’m very happy too, but it’s suffocating. Please let go of me.”
“Just a minute more.”
At my words, Daisy patted me on the back.
“Did anything sad happen, our Saintess?”
Her arms were warm.
