A white building was built next to Valkyr’s permanent residence.

The building is a temple of Vishna.

It was a temple built after Hestine was named as a candidate for a saint.

There was at least one temple of Vishna in each territory, but it was unusual to build it right next to the Lord’s Castle.

Hestine looked up at the statue of Goddess Vishna.

The beautiful and dignified appearance made her heart pound.

The fact that she was chosen made her sentimental.

It was tears of emotion and pride.

“Saint, Bishop Berg has visited you.”

“Bishop Berg”

Hestine, who was praying, opened her eyes wide at the unexpected news.

Because it was her first time being visited privately.

Hestine lifted herself up, taking off her veil.

“The Bishop came to see me, I can’t refuse.

Please show me around.”

Hestine crossed the bridge connecting the temple and the lord’s castle and headed to the castle’s drawing room.

As she entered the drawing room, she could see Bishop Berg sitting quietly.

Hestine greeted shyly.

“Nice to meet you, Bishop Berg.”

Berg rose to his feet in the presence of the Saint and spoke courteously.

“Greetings to Vishna’s humble servant.”

Unlike usual, his manners were imbued with courtesy.

Hestine opened her mouth with a refreshing smile.

“I heard from my brother that Bishop Berg is a very scary man, but you seem very kind.”

Looking at the saint who judged him only by greeting, Berg snorted inwardly.

“It’s an honor for me if you see me in a good light.”

“But what brings you to me My brother and father are away for a while.”

Hestine’s face, which was full of bright smiles, showed an uneasy look.

Because she had never been in charge of a temple related matter by herself.

Everything went through the hands of her father and brother.

Hestine was worried that her mistake might harm his father and brother.

“That doesn’t matter.

I’m here to see you.”

“Hmm, Me….”

“Is there a problem”

“Oh, no.

So, what brings you here”

Hestine was still troubled, but she couldn’t ask a guest who had come to see her to go back.

“I want to ask you something about the disaster.”

“The disaster …Oh! I’ve already heard that the disaster will happen about a month ahead of schedule!”

Berg shook his head.

“No, I’m not just here to ask you that.”

“Then…”

Berg gave a wink to Ale as a signal.

Standing on the wall as if he didn’t exist, Ale quickly pulled a white book out of his bag.

Ale cautiously handed the book to Hestine.

“What is this”

“It’s a replica of the Bible.”

Hestine tilted her head with a perplexed look on her face.

“I don’t know why you’re giving this to me.”

“Please open the book, Saint.”

Hestine hesitated and opened the Bible at Berg’s request.

It was full of incomprehensible letters.

“Do you feel something special”

“Well, it’s the Bible.

It’s full of traces of Vishna.”

The remark struck a chord in Berg’s eyes.

“Can you interpret what it’s about”

Hestine shook her head shyly.

“No, I’m not good enough at studying theology….

But I will study hard and try to be helpful!”

Disappointment flashed across Berg’s face.

But it was so instantaneous that only Ale noticed the feeling.

“No, you’re good enough now.”

“Oh… thank you for saying that.

But I’ll try harder!”

Hestine clenched her fist with a distinctive refreshing smile.

Berg also rose to his feet, responding with a soft smile.

“Are you leaving already”

“Yes, I can’t bother you more.”

Actually, he didn’t want to waste any more time because his business is over.

“I see… I hope to see you again next time.”

“I hope so, too.”

Berg bowed his head shallowly and left the drawing-room.

***

As he left the drawing room, he walked in the hallway of the castle with a blank face.

“Ale, isn’t something strange”

“What”

[DO NOT SHARE/REPOST OUR TRANSLATIONS READ ONLY AT MOONLIGHT NOVELS]

Ale watched nervously as to what else Berg would say.

“She’s so ordinary….”

“What… Who, who’s ordinary Me….”

Berg clicked his tongue briefly. 

“I meant the saint.”

“Gasp!”

[DO NOT SHARE/REPOST OUR TRANSLATIONS READ ONLY AT MOONLIGHT NOVELS]

Ale hurriedly turned her head from side to side to check the surroundings.

Luckily, there was no one around.

‘This man is really…! This is the Duchy of Valkyr.

I mean, it’s the house of the saint.

How can you say that the saint is ordinary in this place’ 

Ale imagined himself holding Berg’s collar tightly, shaking him violently and shouting;

‘Are you crazy Please be careful of what you say…!’

But then he’ll get hit and fall down. 

Ale, who showed superhuman patience, said with an awkward smile.

“Haha.

Well, what do you mean She is a saint no matter what she looks like.”

“Well, even a saint is human.”

“Bishop…”

Ale gave him a look that said please shut up.

But he didn’t care about Ale’s eyes.

“I thought a saint could interpret the bible or she might have some special ability.

But all she has is an overflowing divine power.”

Ale smiled awkwardly and obliquely refuted Berg’s opinion.

“Haha… Her divine power is great, isn’t it The Holy Father is the only living priest who exceeds her divine power.”

As if Ale’s rebuttal worked, Berg nodded with a look of ‘Is it’

Then, a familiar figure approached Berg and Ale in the distance.

“Isn’t that Bishop Berg”

Bishop Hebra said with a welcoming smile.

He was in charge of the temple that was previously built in Valkyr territory. 

Berg looked at Bishop Hebra and the Duke Valkyr standing behind him with a blank face.

“Yes.

I have something I want to ask the saint, so I took the liberty of visiting her.”

The Duke Valkyr’s eyebrows wiggled faintly as Hestine came out of Berg’s mouth.

Seeing this, Berg thought he was being overprotective.

‘It’s not being overprotective; he’s worried he’s act might be discovered’ 

Whatever it was, it didn’t matter to Berg, who lost interest in the saint.

“Haha.

You had business with the Saint.

If you don’t mind, can you tell me what happened”

“Well… I was just wondering if she could interpret the new language.”

At Berg’s reply, the duke looked at ease.

“I was wondering what great thing it was, but that was it.

Ask me about it next time.

You don’t have to bother her.”

“Haha.

She’s not very good at interpreting the new language yet.”

Berg snorted inwardly at the two men who seemed to know everything about the Saint.

“I see.”

“I’m glad I’ve answered your curiosity.

Next time you visit like this, please send me a message, Bishop Berg.”

Bishop Hebra smiled kindly.

Berg was not stupid enough to not recognize the warning behind it.

‘Why are so cheeky’

Berg also responded with a shallow smile.

“I’ll think about it.”

Berg smiled and looked at Bishop Hebra with a cold stare.

 

***

After the noisy event, the dawn deepened.

The ball was running towards the end.

The Tegris band set the tone by playing a calm piece.

Some people left the hall, heading to private places such as gardens and relaxation rooms, looking for a suitable mate.

The ladies, who didn’t want to hang out with the men, sat on one side of the ballroom and watched the party with lazy eyes.

And on the other side, there was a flower of chatter about catching rabbits bloomed.

The women’s voices continued.

[DO NOT SHARE/REPOST OUR TRANSLATIONS READ ONLY AT MOONLIGHT NOVELS]

“I was so surprised! It was like a scene from an opera!”

“Right! My heart was pounding so hard”

All of them were words of admiration to the Grand Duke.

In fact, those with some sharp senses have already noticed who Adelia’s partner is.

Grand Duke Ivan Hamilton.

a name that cannot be ignored as a noble at the principality.

Adelia responded moderately with a picturesque smile.

She was a little dissatisfied with Ivan’s sudden jump out of the window, but thanks to him, she could easily join the group she wanted.

‘I should be grateful to the Duke.’

Adelia opened her mouth to change the subject.

“The capital is in a mess these days.”

The women nodded their head with a sad face as if affirming it.

“I know.

I hope it’s over soon” 

“When will the disaster go away”

“Whoa.

It’s chaotic because we have to pull our supplies out of Zephyros.”

“Oh, my husband is having a hard time with it these days, too! What will happen….”

“Of all things, Zephyros.

I don’t know if it’s going to end up like Rohen.”

At the word ‘Rohen’ Adelia flinched for a moment.

But no one noticed her reaction.

‘As expected, the story of Zephyros came out.’

Zephyros, a commercial district, was a trading and commercial center, not only with the empire’s nobles but also nobles from other countries.

Therefore, the disaster of Zephyros was bound to be the most annoying nightmare for the nobles.

So, it was clear that the information Adelia was going to talk about would be invaluable to them.

“Well.

That withdrawal, I think you’d better hurry.”

The eyes of the women all turned to Adelia.

“What do you mean”

“Do you happen to know something”

The words of the unknown woman may not be very credible, but if she is the Grand Duke’s partner, it will be different.

The information from Adelia was very likely from the Grand Duke.

The women listened to Adelia.

Adelia covered her mouth with a fan and smiled with satisfaction.

“They say the disaster in Zephyros will happen a month ahead of schedule.”

“What Is that true”

“Oh, my God.

Then I’ll have to hurry.

Who… Can I get it sorted out in three months…”

“But are you sure May I know where you heard that from”

It was a voice full of distrust.

It was natural.

She may be the Grand Duke’s partner, but they don’t know anything about Adelia.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t tell you that.”

“Then…”

Adelia’s answer brought back blatant disappointment.

Some even took a wary look.

However, Adelia didn’t have to increase her credibility by revealing everything about her.

It’s up to them if they will take her word. 

All they have to do is wait.

The results will tell everything.

“I understand.

You may not believe me.

But please don’t forget that I said this.”

Adelia had a mysterious smile around her mouth.
