Chapter 71
As I urgently added, Jacques nodded and asked.
“What is it?”
“Promise me that if I heal all these people, you’ll send me back to the Empire.”
At my words, Jacques hesitated for a moment.
“But according to the prophecy, the Saint must remain in the Holy Kingdom.”
At Jacques’ words, I snorted and said.
“Then I won’t go. I’ll just bite my tongue off right here.”
At my threat, Jacques’ face turned pale and he hurriedly nodded.
“I understand, Saint. I will take responsibility and send you back to the Empire.”
Having secured a promise from Jacques, I stood up.
I could hear voices looking for us not far away.
“Let’s go out.”
“Yes, understood.”
Jacques immediately stood up and followed me.
“Saint! Sir Jacques!”
“You’re safe!”
“Thank goodness!”
People from the Holy Kingdom approached us. They were the people who had come to the Empire as part of the delegation with Jacques.
Seeing me and Jacques soaking wet, they hurriedly began taking off their outer garments.
“Please cover yourself with this.”
Watching the man respectfully offer his outer garment with both hands as if presenting tribute, I smiled awkwardly.
“Thank you.”
When I accepted the outer garment, the man smiled as if enchanted.
“We’ll escort you to the carriage.”
I returned the outer garment to Jacques and followed the people from the Holy Kingdom.
My hands were still bound with silk, and finding it uncomfortable, I looked back at Jacques.
“Jacques. Could you untie this?”
“Ah, I’m sorry, Saint.”
Jacques immediately untied the silk.
Then something like handcuffs around my wrists was revealed.
The emblem of the Holy Kingdom that I had seen on clothing before was engraved on the handcuffs.
“What are these handcuffs exactly?”
“They’re restraints that block divine power.”
In the Holy Kingdom, they called holy magic power “divine power.” Blocking divine power meant blocking magic power.
So that’s why my magic wasn’t working.
I looked down at the restraints fastened around my wrists like handcuffs, then extended my wrist.
“Take these off too.”
“But…”
“I promise I won’t run away.”
At my words, Jacques exchanged glances with the other men.
“Or should I try cutting off my wrist like you did, Jacques?”
When I spoke jokingly, Jacques’ face turned white.
“No, Saint. I’ll remove them for you.”
Jacques immediately removed the restraints from my wrists as well.
Only after confirming that my magic was working properly did I look back at the men.
“Where is the carriage?”
“If you walk west from here for about 10 minutes, you’ll reach it.”
About 10 minutes west from here.
That distance seemed manageable for teleportation even with my basic magic skills.
I roughly set the coordinates and teleported with the people from the Holy Kingdom.
The people from the Holy Kingdom looked surprised, as if experiencing teleportation for the first time.
I could see a carriage parked not far away.
“Let’s go.”
Unlike when I was dragged here before, I voluntarily climbed into the carriage.
Seeing me being cooperative, Jacques seemed relieved as he followed me into the carriage.
“Thank you so much, Saint.”
Tears were welling up in Jacques’ eyes.
He really was someone who cried a lot.
“Before we depart, may I send a telegram to my friends?”
“Yes, please do.”
I created a golden telegram butterfly and whispered to it.
That I would be staying in the Holy Kingdom for a while, so they shouldn’t worry about looking for me. That I would return when the time came, and Beatrice should behave herself and not cause trouble in the meantime.
After sending the butterfly out the window, I nodded to indicate we could depart.
Then Jacques knocked on the carriage wall, and shortly after, the carriage smoothly began moving.
Thus we crossed the border and headed toward the Holy Kingdom.
* * *
“What kind of nonsense is this! What? Wait because she’ll return when the time comes?! That doesn’t make sense!”
Beatrice couldn’t contain her anger after receiving Rene’s telegram.
In contrast, the Mage Lord had a calm expression. As if she had expected Rene to make such a choice.
“Did those Holy Kingdom bastards brainwash Rene or something?”
“She says she’s coming back. If she had been brainwashed, she wouldn’t have said she’d return. So she probably wasn’t brainwashed.”
“Then you’re saying Rene went to the Holy Kingdom of her own accord?”
“That’s probably it.”
“But why!”
“We don’t know that.”
The Mage Lord didn’t bother to mention the fact that she had sensed dark magic emanating from the Holy Kingdom.
Beatrice grumbled for a while before sitting down.
“Ask Rene when she’s coming back.”
“I can send a telegram butterfly, but if Rene Sauver has already crossed into the Holy Kingdom, the butterfly won’t be able to reach her.”
“Why not!”
“The Holy Kingdom treats magic as an impure force, so there’s a barrier at the border that blocks magic.”
At the Mage Lord’s words, Beatrice grumbled heavily and tried to flip the table.
It was Duke Wischurs who stopped her.
The Mage Lord, who had been quietly watching the chaos, thought to herself.
The dark magic energy that could be felt even from the Holy Kingdom.
It seemed something had happened in the Holy Kingdom.
That was probably why the Holy Kingdom had been so desperate to take Rene.
She could somewhat understand why Rene had sent a telegram saying she would visit the Holy Kingdom.
“Let’s wait for now. Since Rene Sauver said with her own mouth that she’d return, she’ll come back.”
“When?”
It was then that Kaisis, who had been silent all along, spoke up.
“How long are we supposed to sit here and wait when we don’t even know when my master will return?”
“Well, do you have any other brilliant ideas?”
When the Mage Lord tilted her head and asked, Kaisis had no choice but to close his mouth.
Even if he wanted to go to the Holy Kingdom to find her, he was an evil dragon. The moment he set foot in the Holy Kingdom, alarms would sound.
Kaisis bit his innocent lips. A drop of blood trickled down his torn lip.
The Mage Lord watched Kaisis with interest.
That man had a human appearance, but she could see a dragon’s soul.
A dragon that could transform into human form would be the evil dragon Kaisis.
What exactly is the relationship between the Evil Dragon and Rene Sauver?
While the Mage Lord quietly stared at Kaisis, the Count, who had been keeping his head down the whole time, asked the Mage Lord.
“Anyway, is Rene safe?”
“It seems so for now.”
The Count let out a sigh of relief at the Mage Lord’s words and immediately stood up from his seat.
“For now, please make yourselves comfortable while we all wait for Rene’s reply. We’ll provide meals and lodging from our side. It’s our gesture of gratitude to those helping us find Rene.”
The Count ordered the maids to prepare and bring food, and the maids moved busily.
Amidst that commotion, Beatrice looked out the window.
She wished Rene would return as soon as possible.
She couldn’t even imagine how difficult it must be for her to go to an unfamiliar place alone.
Meanwhile, at that moment, Rene was….
* * *
What is this….
I looked out the window with a burdened expression.
The reason was that every time the carriage I was riding in passed by, people would prostrate themselves and bow their heads as if worshipping a goddess.
They said the Holy Kingdom’s faith in the Saint was tremendous.
Well, even I would be happy if someone came who could cure a precious person who was turning into a demon.
I was looking out the window when I met eyes with a child who had bright, innocent eyes.
That’s when it happened.
A woman who appeared to be the child’s mother hurriedly made the child bow his head.
No, there’s no need to go that far….
I entered the palace with an uncomfortable feeling and finally got out of the carriage.
“Welcome to the Holy Kingdom, Saint.”
“Welcome, Saint!”
People who appeared to be attendants rushed out and put flower crowns and flower necklaces on me.
They were even scattering flower petals beside me….
Honestly, I wished they would all just leave.
“I’ll guide you to the room where the Saint will stay.”
Jacques personally guided me.
As the attendants who had bowed their heads cleared the way, we were able to step into the magnificent palace.
The Holy Kingdom I saw on the way here was surprisingly large.
It was small compared to the Empire, but still larger than I had expected.
The palace was magnificent to match.
Jacques led me to the third floor.
My room was luxurious enough to rival the King’s bedroom.
Well, they did say the Saint is a leader in the Holy Kingdom.
Then it would be similar to a king, so it made sense for it to be luxurious.
As I was looking around the room, Jacques came in with three women.
“These are the maids who will serve the Saint from now on.”
“It’s our first time meeting you, Saint.”
The women all bowed their heads in unison.
I awkwardly greeted them and then turned to look at Jacques.
“Where are the patients? I’d like to see the patients first.”
