Fake Saint Of The Year

My body moved impatiently.

Ever since Eterna declared herself a witch, to be honest with Bernale, she has not been able to keep up.

Everything seemed to have leapt too far, and even if I looked back, I could only reach the answer that it was impossible.

So one of the things that happened to Bernell was that Eterna got lost and came up with a funny answer.

However, there was no doubt that she was making a very dangerous statement, and I thought we should calm down and discuss it first.

However, without waiting for such a slow development, Eterna fell off the cliff... and then Ellise jumped off the cliff.

After that... I don't remember much.

However, when I realized it, I fell off the cliff.

I'm sure my body moved before I even thought about it.

If you think calmly, you can see that this kind of behavior has no meaning.

Ellise can fly anyway.

Besides, if she were a saint, she wouldn't get a scratch from falling off a cliff.

Then this behavior is nothing more than a self-destructive suicide, and it only disturbs Ellise.

Ah... I'm an idiot...

With that in mind, Bernel sank into the sea and his consciousness dimmed.

The next time he woke up, he was sleeping in some cave.

Turning to the side, you can see the fainted etherna sleeping face.

Then I noticed the lights illuminating the cave.

The lights float with moderate warmth and serve as a substitute for fire.

"Ah, did you wake up?

Ellise's smile, illuminated by the light, awakened Bernel in an instant.

He woke up surprisingly fast, and finally understood that he had been saved by Ellise's interruptive remarks.

How pathetic... to be protected rather than to protect someone I wanted to protect.And this is the third time.

Her gratitude keeps growing.

"I'm surprised.You'll come down suddenly. "

"S, I'm sorry... if you notice, your body will do it on its own..."

"Buy that temper that jumps out for your dear friend.

But it's not courage, it's recklessness. "

"... yes"

"... but the heart that can rush out aggressively for friends is honorable.

Never forget your heart, but take care of yourself. "

The first thing that came to mind in Ellise's words was the negative word "no."

Bernel didn't jump out for his friends... for Eterna.

Indeed, Eterna is an irreplaceable friend, like a family who grew up in the same village.

It was the village that warmly welcomed me into solitude because of the power I had, and I was the closest to me.

I love you, and I want to protect you.There is no lie in that feeling.

But when Eterna jumped... Bernel couldn't move aggressively (...).

Of course, it was not abandoned because of its weakness, but because there was a sober judgment that "it is okay if you don't get hurt".

Even if I jumped out, it was just a meaningless increase in the number of people falling, rather than the right situation for everyone to go down and look for etherna.

But when Ellise jumped out, he didn't even think about it.

It was moving when I noticed it, and jumped when I noticed it.

You don't have to do that anymore than Etherna.

(Ah... I see.I really don't know about this guy....)

He swallowed his words and slapped his chest with his fist.

That is not the word that should be vomited now.

The words of such an immature man's affection only confuse him.

So I pushed my feelings and killed them, and I said something else.

"Dear Ellise, I was wondering... isn't Eterna the same as me?

"Just like you... I see!Was it there!

"Yes, I wouldn't say... I wouldn't hurt myself, but it's been a long time since I got hurt.

Even when I was thrown out of my family and banished from my village, I continued to live in a situation where ordinary people would have died long ago... no, I was kept alive by this power (...).

No matter how hungry or dry I was, I would never die. "

Without the power of the witches and the Virgin, you will not be injured.It is thought to be possible only for witches and saints.

But here's the exception.

The only exception is Bernel.

Bernel is neither a virgin nor a witch.Naturally, he is a man in the first place.

However, it has powers close to witches and has characteristics close to witches.

Belnell read that Eterna might be the same as this.

And the words impressed Ellise as if she had an answer.

"Sure... then I can explain.

It also explains why Eterna is not a witch, but has powers close to witches. "

"Master Ellise... is Eterna still unable to control her power?Just like I used to..... "

Bernel asked Ellise out of anxiety.

He had a past where he lost control of this power before he met Ellise.

That's why I was worried that Eterna might be the same.

However, when Ellise glanced at Eterna, she quietly shook her neck.

"No, I don't see any sign of a runaway.

She's serious, nobody's hurting her... I just think it's my fault that the bad coincidences overlap. "

"I see... I'm glad"

Bernel was relieved and Ellise smiled.

The smile distracted Bernel.

I can see that my face is getting hot.I'm sure it's bright red now.

I wonder if it is because of the lights that deceives me.

"Well... it's time to go back.Everyone must be worried.

I'll tell you what's going on when it happens. "

"Yes"

Ellise proposes to go back up and Bernel agrees.

But then he saw something strange.

Ellise's uniform arm was slightly torn... and there was a scratch on it.

"Ellise? That arm....."

"What's wrong with your arm?"

"Um... the wound..."

Ellise touches her arm strangely.

And when I retracted my hand, there was white skin with no usual scratches.

Instead, a red thread is picked on Ellise's hand.

"Ah, the thread was sticking together.Maybe it came off when it fell. "

"Ah... yarn..."

Oh my God, the red thread just stuck to Ellise's arm.

This is a shameful mistake to see.

Ellise couldn't have been injured in the first place (...), so if you think calmly, you'll soon understand.

But at this time, if he had been truly calm, I would have noticed.

Belnell's uniform is black and blue in a uniform designated by the school.

Eterna's uniform is also a school-designated uniform, this one is white and green.

The same thing happened to Ellise.

Nobody here uses a red cloth.

Whose clothes came loose and stuck to my arm?

Bernel was still unaware of this discomfort.

... yes. Not yet...
