The Capital Arc Part 2

Chapter 11

Continuing to went to the southern part of the city, I was overwhelmed by how large the church when we arrived.

A marble gigantic structure, the is a steeple towers that stretches high up to the sky as if reaching it on both left and right of the main structure. There are beautiful rose-carved windows sparkling in it. In the large door on the building entrance was a door lever that had a little cute bell carvings, that can be seen in other towns. Was it the church that’s spreading it.

In the surroundings of the church are flower beds with pinkish flowers blooming all around that are being taken care by earth spirits.

If you stroll around the church, the fragrance of the flowers tended by the spirits will  be breathed along with the fresh air.

You can also feel the presence of the spirits all over the place.

「――――I welcome the arrival of the Spirit Princess-sama and Knight Escort-sama. I will be the one in-charge of takong care of your needs during your stay in the church, I’m called Roasell Fins.」

Saying「Please feel free to call me Roa」, a young boy who is one of the church’s priest spirit user wearing a white robe bowed his head deeply.

We entered the reception room, together with Reiss on the couch (But for some reason, Urr was in between us and there seem to be some distance apart) while waiting, then this young boy arrived.

He seems to be four or five years younger than me.

He has a smooth blonde hair and beautiful indigo eyes. His face shape draws a smooth and roundish outline, he has a slender and small stature lile that girl, if you don’t look closely, can really be mistaken as one.

However, this young looking person is a spirit user chosen by the church to take care  of the Spirit Princess must be of considerable talent.

Still, for a body that’s thoroughly trained, he seems to be forcing himself, as he was not moving after greeting us. Understanding what he felt, I stood up from the sofa and greeted him 「I will be in your care, please to meet you, Roa-san」.

「Nah! C, Calling me with honorifics! There is no need for it Spirit Princess-sama!」

「Eh? Then, Roa…….-kun. Also, there is no need to call me Spirit Princess every time….. I even have no idea why was I chosen as one. If possible, I’d like you to call me by my name.」

「Uweee!? Su, Suria-sama, would that be alright……?」

I replied「Yes」with a smile, Roa then muttered「I, I’m nervous calling a beautiful  person like you by her name」while his face was blus.h.i.+ng. What a cute creature this boy is.

However, Roa-kun is trembling like he has a fever in the presence of Reiss’ stabbing glare. I sent Reiss blaming stares.

「Will you stop staring at him for a moment, he’s getting scared」

「……You really haven’t changed, having soft spot for the young」

Condemning words then seemed to stab me.

Well I won’t deny that. I do have soft spot on them since I think of myself lowly.

That being said, I remember during the time that we still get along together when we’re young.

When playing together with the children of the orphanage, Reiss was just sulking in the corner somewhere crowdless like a sickly child.

And I thought it was just like an affection of a little brother getting jealous since his older sister is getting along with others, unn, something like that did happen.

It’s late saying this but Reiss was actually younger than me right.

If that is so, what’s the difference between Roa-kun. The answer is, I never called him by his name since the time we met again.

…….It’s not like I also wanted Reiss to call me「Suu」again.

「For the entire stay of Suria-sama, I’ll be staying together with you along with your training and until the Spirit Princess’ ceremony. After then, we will be heading to the Sacred Bell Forest. You will be joining the prayers every morning, but you can freely spend you time and go out wherever you want during breaks. Umm, Knight-sama……」

「It’s fine just to call him Reiss, Roa-kun」

「Don’t casually call me by my name. With your position call me Knight Escort.」

「Isn’t just Reiss fine!」

「Ah, uh, uumm….」

Reiss was sitting haughtily in the sofa with his aloof att.i.tude, I was bitting my lips, the atmosphere between us was turning into a chaos and Roa-kun’s robe is already shaking.
