“Somehow, recently I feel like an idiot for considering things so seriously . ”

“Maybe you’re tired? After all Mr . Lizard is quite a grandpa, right?”

We were on the bank of a small river, the water gently babbling below . I went on a stroll by myself in search of a place to nap and sulk in the area, but Lady Saintess came with me, even though I didn’t invite her .

Because Rēko saw through the spirit’s present condition and even supplied her with magic power, everyone stopped really paying attention to Lady Saintess anymore since she had completely served her purpose . It seemed like it became dull, so she clung to me who entertained her with conversation .

“By the way, listen to this! To tell you the truth, I’ve advanced since then! A construction to draw a large-scale waterway from my town all the way to Peryudōna has begun . Don’t you think that water sprung forth by me being used in a town where top notch adventurers gather is amazing?”

“Aah, now that you mention it Rēko mentioned something about that town’s deteriorating waterway facilities . ”

Lady Saintess was garrulous enough to convey clearly just how much she wanted to talk about it .

“Ah, of course the place I belong to is my current town . But I’d be hard pressed to refuse if I were to be told I’m needed . After all as a Saintess I should do my best to respond to a voice seeking help . ”

“Quite earnest, aren’t you?”

“Ehehe not at all… I still have a long way to go . If one day the whole country were to wors.h.i.+p me… that would be great… . ”

“I think it’s better if you don’t go too overboard . You’re likely to mess up after all . ”

Still, she was so virtuous that it seemed unthinkable that she was once a demon . From what I gathered she was quite the bonehead during her demon days so her true nature didn’t particularly change much, but just how deep that town people’s faith had to be to change a demon into a G.o.d .

Thereupon, a question sprouted within me .

“Hey Lady Saintess, can I ask you something?”

“Yes? What is it?”

“You said earlier that awe and dread turns into demons strength, but what would happen if, for example, everyone around the world would be scared of a demon that actually doesn’t exist?”

“A demon that doesn’t exist…?”

Lady Saintess didn’t seem to get it and tilted her neck .
