The wife of the villains, returning to death to change her mind.

The subtle discomfort I feel in the city of Astelle.

It is not just because I am praised for the abilities I have acquired in the various evils I have done in the past.

More than that...

"Ah, thank you! Holy Mother of Astelle!

Fabian asked me to come to the hospital to heal as a traveling healer. An old woman lying in bed woke up and lowered her head deeply.

"No, as a healer, I did what I had to do... and, Fika. I just had a cure. Don't move too hard... please don't lie still."

When I say that while I'm confused, the old woman... Fica goes even further,

"Ah, the Virgin's heart is really kind... I was ready to die any time now, but this body healed by the Virgin came out wanting to last as long as possible. I don't have much to thank... but I wonder if there's anything I can do..."

That's how I get out of bed and search the room.

I am harassed by the move.

I should be over ninety two years old already.

Besides, I've only been to bed the other day.

And yet you're moving so suddenly...

I removed all of the invading demons, but not all of them suddenly returned to health.

But when I stopped, it wasn't like I was listening, and I found something in the back of the room, a box with a big palm.

"There it is! Please, this way...."

That's what he handed me.

Looks like I'm going to thank you for this...

"No, because today's visit only serves as a healer at a church hospital, there's no need for any particular consideration. Not to mention that it was made worse by the last dragon raid, and in such a case, the church and hospital will be assisted by the city...."

That's why I don't have any money, but I'm not in trouble with money in the first place.

And Fika was supposed to be pretty poor and couldn't take anything from her like that.

But Fica gives it to me to press.

"That's fine. I want to give this to the Virgin, not to the hospital... so please take it."

"No, but... in the first place, I'm a healer, and in The Virgin..."

"What are you saying! I don't know how many people in the city were saved by you that day. How many stories have you heard in the city that someone like the goddess who appeared fluffy and never healed a wound that could never be healed by a normal healer? And when the ice pillars left behind by the dragon collapsed, the power of a miracle protected them all! When I heard those stories, I thought: I'm sure you're like the Virgin to whom God sent you...! So please....!

It is very thankful to be praised so far, and it is certainly true about what I have done, but that is why I wanted to say that the Holy Virgin is different.

That's why I don't need anything.

But imagining Fica's sadness when she said so, she couldn't say so strongly, and after several questions,

"... I see. So, how about we take care of you? I'll return it at any time, so please don't visit me if you need me."

"In the house of the Virgin....? Are you sure you want me to visit you...!?

"Of course. Ah, before that, it's my house, but it's a little far from here, on the high ground...."

"On the high ground... eh? Um, maybe, but... what is the name of the Virgin...?

"You only named it Elaine. My name is Elaine Farrens, correct. So....."

"Hello, Duchess!? I thought you were noble, but I don't think you're so noble... please forgive me for being rude. Whatever....."

While working as a healer in this city, I knew this would happen when I named myself, so I only named Fabian after all, but I couldn't help but say that Fica could come home at any time.

But you'll need to keep your mouth shut.

"I'm fine with the way I've always been. And please take this."

That's what I'm saying, handing Feca a little medal.

"What is this...?

"The Duke of Farrence's crest is on the front and mine on the back. If I show you to the gatekeeper, you will know that you are my customer. So please take it with you when you arrive."

"Are you sure...?

"Yes, but I would appreciate it if you could keep my real name in mind. I miss the distance between my heart and the rest of the city."

In fact, the trouble is, now in the city, my name is not Elaine, it's mostly called The Virgin.

I had corrected all of them, but in the third day after the boulder, I was already tired of correcting it, and it just seemed like saying it.

The terrible thing is the reaction of the church and the Holy Nation that heard about it, but as for the Church of Astelle, it doesn't seem to be particularly problematic because Fabian is a priest...

Well, you can't help thinking too much.

I only visited Astaire on vacation, and I'll be here later, so rumors like that will disappear in a while.

Maybe that's why I don't care much.

"I see... I'll take your name's secret to the grave, Fika! This medal will continue to be protected as a family treasure!

"No, not even that far... and it's just a proof of keeping this..."

"No, you gave it to me. If you need anything, don't hesitate to use it."

He was a very stubborn person, but, well, he seemed to be feeling better, so I decided to think about it.
