Became the Golden Sun of the Academy

80 – What if I like it?

Even though the kingdom is confused, Sylvia had no intention of letting go of the uncomfortable shackles of being a saint.

She initially thought that it was God, not the holy kingdom, who chose her, and that the reason he bestowed this power on her was to help more people.

“How is your arm?”

“I am fine.”

She undid the bandages and Adele fiddled with her broken arm.

There was no pain, and he seemed to be in better condition than usual.

The first person treated today was Adele.

He originally intended to treat him yesterday, but then somehow he wasn’t in the situation.

So, he called me to the academy under the pretext of providing treatment, but I can’t say that there was no selfishness there.

“Then I’m glad.”

Seeing Adele swinging her arms around, Sylvia smiled with her unique benevolent smile.

Adele felt the smile closer than usual because Sylvia was standing on her own two feet rather than in her wheelchair.

She was physically close to her face, as her height reached only about her waist, almost to her shoulders.

“It looks like you are not in a wheelchair today.”

“Oh, yes.”

Sylvia tapped her on the ground with the tip of her toe.

“I wanted to take a little walk today. Maybe if she keeps moving, she can increase her stamina, right?”

It’s a lie.

She usually works out, and when she goes to see if there are any places where Richie’s aftermath remains, she always rides in a wheelchair to conserve her stamina.

“You are right. But, I can’t see Alessia, is she not accompanying me?”

And another change is the absence of Alessia, who always stood by Sylvia.

It was extremely rare for Sylvia to move without Alessia, who is both an escort driver and a doctor who takes care of Sylvia’s health.

She was worried about what she would do if something went wrong. When Adele asked, Sylvia answered.

“She is resting because of fatigue.”

This is also a lie.

If Alessia was in that condition, she and Sylvia would not have come out.

This was deliberately separated to create a situation where Sylvia and Adele were alone.

Alessia isn’t lying in bed right now, she’s on the roof of a building far away, and she’s probably keeping an eye out for any danger around her.

“… ….”

Adele put her finger on her forehead.

That incident happened just two days ago, and I was worried about Sylvia wandering around so freely.

If she meets a wild dog passing by, she may not be able to escape and die from a bite on her neck…….

“Holy Lady, it is dangerous to move without an escort.”

It’s a low voice, but it feels like scolding somewhere.

There were a few people who scolded them for teaching them, but none of them made comments out of genuine concern, so it was a new feeling to hear.

It shouldn’t be, but Sylvia noticed Adele’s heart and almost laughed without her noticing.

“It’s okay. I’ll be walking around the academy anyway.”

It’s not okay.

Considering what had happened at the academy so far, it was safe to say that she was more dangerous outside the academy.

Sylvia knows that too, but she said it on purpose.

To put it this way.

“Whoa.”

Adele sighed.

“Should I go around today?”

“Yes. It will be troublesome if a student is infected with Magi that has not yet been purified.”

“…… Then, come with me. I will see you.”

I knew Adele would do this.

I feel a little sorry for cheating on him, but since he has lived his whole life for others, can’t he live for himself sometimes?

As Adele said, since she is a human before she is a saint, she should understand this deviation.

That’s why I opened my heart that was tightly wrapped in duty, so I have to understand.

“I would appreciate it if you would.”

So, Sylvia meekly accepted the offer.

I was trying to take a big step with such a light heart.

“Ah.”

I turned around as if I remembered something.

The hem of her white skirt fluttered in the wind.

“I forgot my cane.”

It was a truly artificial realization.

Does it make sense that I walked all the way and didn’t realize it?

Sylvia muttered to herself as she stared at Adele’s arm.

“Isn’t there anything to support… ….”

That’s how her eyes were focused on Adele’s arm.

She stares blatantly, as if she had been cured for this.

She noticed the intention, but when she thought of her body, she couldn’t give it up again.

Adele quietly held out her arm.

“Would you like to hold her arm?”

“I will not decline.”

Sylvia approaching her gun as if she was waiting for that answer.

She then took one big deep breath, and she tucked her arms into Adele’s sides and crossed hers.

“If you feel uncomfortable, please don’t worry and tell me.”

The soft feel of her arm was embarrassing and she wanted to answer immediately, “Yes,” But how could she?

“Okay… ….”

Adele replied in a voice that just crawled.

* * *

I am not an idiot.

It’s not that I don’t have sense, and it’s not that I don’t have feelings.

“Hmm, it seems that there is nothing wrong with this side. Shall we go over there?”

The direction Sylvia’s finger pointed was a rainbow-like street with colorful flowers in full bloom along the roadside.

In the original work, this is a place where events occur when a bond with a heroine rises, and as far as I know, this academy is one of the best places to visit when you become a couple.

Is this really for the patrol to find the remaining magic of Sylvia that she didn’t know about in the first place?

No.

I can confidently say no.

And I felt like I knew the answer to why she was like that.

‘The thing I was worried about finally happened… ….’

To be honest, I thought something like this would happen when I thought about my past.

Since Kyle isn’t there when he’s needed, I’ve been filling the role he’s supposed to play.

“Adele?”

While she was lost in her thoughts with a pain in her head, Sylvia with her arms crossed looked up at me anxiously and called out.

“Are you tired? Shall we get some rest?”

“… ….”

I appreciate her heart, but I can’t accept it.

Not because of the reason that I will connect with Kyle from now on, but because there is a woman I have a heart for.

“…… Let’s do that.”

So, swearing that I should cut it off right here, I sat down with Sylvia on a bench next to her.

Seeing Sylvia sitting close enough to touch her thighs even though her bench is quite long, I was even more convinced of my expectations.

“I’m not tired yet, but I’m tired already. My stamina is worse than it looks.”

Sylvia covered her mouth and smiled.

Even after seeing her like that, her heart was heavy as she tried to say something that would push her away.

“Saintess.”

“Yes, why would you call me?”

“Actually, I have a problem. Could you listen to it for a moment?”

“I am worried. Tell me It is my role to listen to that.”

What she said from now on was an indirect way of expressing my intentions to her.

“There is a woman with whom I have recently developed a special relationship.”

As she lucked out, the trembling of Sylvia was transmitted through her skin to skin.

“So I want to give you something, but I’m ignorant about this, so I don’t know what kind of gift I’ll like. If you are a woman like us, what kind of gift would you like her to receive?”

I didn’t see Sylvia, but she was looking right at me.

“You are bad at lying.”

When I glanced at those words, Sylvia had a faint smile on her face.

“Having listened to the grievances of others, I can tell to some extent whether the person in front of me is telling the truth or lying. You know what? People who lie don’t look people in the eye easily.”

I thought Sylvia would have her face sad or forlorn, but she wasn’t at all.

“You made up what you just said to let me know that she has a lover, right?”

“…… Did you notice?”

“I also have a sense of humor.”

Sitting astride her bench, Sylvia swayed her legs, running one hand through her windblown hair.

“Are you afraid that direct refusal will hurt more? You are kind. And arrogant.”

“Yes?”

She was somehow taken aback by her wrath and turned her head away, her thin finger poking her cook cheek.

“Did you know that since my body is weak, my heart can also be weak? Did you think you knew me well? If so, that is a big mistake.”

So, since I was going to answer that it wasn’t like this, her Sylvia’s finger lightly pressed her lips as if telling me to wait.

“You don’t know me very well. It is still too early to judge.”

From noble mtl dot com

“But I… ….”

“You have a woman in mind? But that’s not the truth, isn’t it? Mind can change at any time. Suddenly, Adele’s heart might turn to me.”

Was Sylvia this kind of personality?

I thought I knew her well through her original work, but as she said, there was a big gap between what I know and Sylvia right in front of her.

“That sounds shameless. But you can’t help it. It’s unfair to be separated from Adele, who doesn’t know anything about me.”

Sylvia got up from her bench.

Seeing me speechless, she covered her mouth with her hand and giggled.

Seeing her look like a little devil, I laughed out loud, thinking that I was an idiot for worrying too much.

“Then, saintess, would it be all right if I ask you just one question?”

“Yes, something.”

“Her saintess is so sure in her own heart because of which part of me?”

“Um.”

It was a momentary worry.

“I took risks to save you several times, but what kind of girl in the world doesn’t fall in love? You look like a prince you only see in fairy tales.”

That answer, for some reason, chilled my heart.

Especially the part where Sylvia, who knows the heart of a woman well, said with certainty that she was ‘any other woman in the world’.
