Fake Saint Of The Year

"I know.You seem unfairly valued. "

It was the headmaster of the school who called out to Aina, who had fled everything.

I am old enough to be in my mid-40s, but my spine is firmly stretched and my body is muscular and dry.

In this world where the average life expectancy of a man is less than sixty years, he may already call himself an old man, but he is full of surprising youthfulness and energy.

With his gray hair all back, his eyes are as sharp as a carnivorous beast.

The height is 188 cm, which is considerably higher than the average height of 165 cm for men in this world.

"Luck is cruel.

Like you, the magic material that would have made you the first knight falls in defeat when you were in a bad mood once.

It was bad for a while. If you had been there, you would have played a part in protecting the Virgin. "

It's a sweet word that slips into Eina's heart.

Aina's heart is now broken.It was scratched to the point where it could be broken.

In that gap, his words gently penetrate.

"It's too sparing to see.You always expected to be a great knight. [M]

It is a great loss that the talent is about to crush.

Besides, this has not been confirmed... it seems that Miss Marie was using dirty hands at that time.

Before the game starts... don't you think it's strangely cold?Do you have any idea?

I think that Miss Marie had been attacking you before the match to the point where you didn't notice.

Your body moves slowly... so that you can't use your natural powers. "

In conclusion, there was no such thing.

Anything that reduces her physical ability, Eina will notice at that point.

If it was that cold, I would remember it as cold.

And Aina doesn't have that kind of memory.

But... people are creatures who think things over their own convenience.

Not to mention the past.

If you ask me (...), I think so (...).

Once you think about it, it's as if it's the truth.

Suspicion and truth turn upside down, and unfounded suspicion in him is replaced by truth.

When I did something bad, I first thought, "I'm not the only one who's bad."

Next, "Maybe I'm not bad," and eventually, "I'm not bad," and "Why am I being blamed for not being bad?"

There are certainly more than a certain number of people who think like this.

"Look, it was cold back then, wasn't it?

But you didn't notice.That's because Miss Marie's technique was ingenious. "

The headmaster's words can be heard like brainwashing.

I think so.

I did not lose in a fair fight.

I lost because I was cowardly.

When you understand (misunderstand), two flames of anger are raised.

I can't forgive you. Such thoughts dominate the mind.

The headmaster then makes a suggestion to her who has lost her mind.

"I'm sure you're the best student of the year.

That's why I want to believe you and tell you.

... just to tell you the truth, there are witches hiding in this school. "

"Ha!?

"I've been looking for someone I can trust.I didn't know who my enemies were, and I was fighting alone.

But you can believe it. [M]

Maybe it's because of the enemy's tactics that put you in such a difficult environment. "

Aina was surprised at the principal's words.

At the same time, I felt dark joy.

I felt superiority for telling such a serious story to myself, not Marie.

You know what I mean? At that tournament, monsters appeared as if timing had been achieved, and there was an active play like a meeting.

There are already a lot of witches in hand.I don't know where my eyes are.

The Virgin didn't know about the demon. "

"Oh, my God! We need to let them know right away....."

"No, that's not good.Even if I let them know, they think we're saying something strange.

And this is a chance.It's a great opportunity to let your enemies swim and grab their tails. "

The principal bent down and gazed at Aina.

Then he grabbed her hand and quietly asked for it.

"Eina Fox... please fight with me.Protect the Virgin with us. "

"Ha, yes...!Happy if it's me....!

"That's a good answer. I'm glad I chose you...

Then I want you to monitor the Virgin's behavior and report back to me while living as usual.

Especially if the Virgin starts to move away from people.

... you know the case where the Virgin was summoned by Professor Farah a few months ago?

If the Virgin starts acting alone, it is likely that the enemy will summon her in the same way and that she is in danger.We need to get to the rescue immediately.So report it to me immediately. "

Aina gets tangled up by the Principal's sweet invitation.

When people think they are doing the right thing, they are less likely to question it.

Not to mention if that's the girl with the heart.

With her original personality, Aina had no doubt in her heart.

"I'll give you the means to report it.

He is a clever bird that listens to and imitates people's words.

And because it has the characteristic of assimilating into the surrounding landscape in order to escape the natural enemy, no one will notice even if it is put on the shoulder.

Talk to him during the debriefing and fly.Then this bird will come to me and tell me exactly what you're saying. "

The headmaster gave it to me as he spoke.

People seem used to it, and the birds on Eina's hands without resistance quickly turn the color into the same color as Eina's skin, as if they weren't there.

Say something.

"Um... well then... hello"

Aina was prompted by the headmaster to greet the bird.

The bird bends its neck and opens its mouth.

"E, eto, solleisure, connitija"

"Wow... maybe it's cute"

"Wow, cute duck"

The bird imitates Eina's words.

That made Eina happy and stroked the bird's head with her fingertips.

Fluffy and comfortable to touch.

"Well then, please.Of course, this is a classified mission.

Don't tell anyone else. "

"Yes, I'll take care of it!

Aina replies confidently to the principal.

The principal walked away with a smile that seemed kind to her.

But as he walks, his mild smile distorts and the edge of his mouth hangs.

It was a malicious smile that made a foolish little girl laugh.

Belnell and the others who were listening in the shade looked at each other and said that they had heard something terrible.
