I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess - I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess chapter 101

101 – Punishment (6)

Sirien looks unhappy.

On the other hand, Hylia seemed to like Sirien quite a bit, and she looked at her quite favorably.

“Let me tell you the most awaited news first. “You were waiting for news from the imperial palace, right?”

“Yes. “Has Your Majesty made a decision?”

“It seems so. Three days later, by noon, she was ordered to enter the palace. The Sun of the Empire himself awaits you two.”

“…… Yes. “Let’s go on time.”

The emperor invited us.

I vaguely thought that I might have a chance to enter the imperial palace, but it became a reality.

The center of imperial power, the imperial palace.

A place where the emperor, the pinnacle of the current empire, and the crown prince, the pinnacle of the future, reside.

In the original work, it was a stage where plotters from Gumilbokgeom roamed around, or it was depicted as an outside world where all kinds of scheming tricks were rampant.

The imperial palace was a place where if you used your tongue incorrectly, not only yourself but also the fortune of your family could be in danger.

I have no talent for politics or anything else, so I was only planning on following Sirien around.

As long as you don’t cause an accident. Don’t install it, just go quietly and come back quietly.

“It is said that His Majesty is looking at this matter seriously and with a willing heart. “He said he especially liked the ‘cautiousness’ of the two of you.”

“I understand.”

We didn’t rush into things.

The first thing to do was to inform the emperor and give him an explanation so that he could handle this incident according to his taste.

As an emperor, he was able to gain a skein of honey by staying quiet.

Thanks to this, we were also expected to run out of beans.

In the first place, we came back this long way to prevent the emperor from abandoning us without drinking only sweet water.

If you don’t gain anything even after all that hard work, it doesn’t work.

“You don’t necessarily need to hear the details from me, so in fact, this is all I received from His Majesty…… “I personally have one business left.”

“Personal business?”

Wiggle. Sirien’s hand holding the teacup stopped for a moment.

Although she wasn’t visible from my side, it seemed like Sirien was looking at Hyria with quite a bit of suspicion.

“Don’t be like that. “I just want to say thank you.”

“I don’t think I did anything to thank the leader.”

“No. “The person who should be most grateful to you two in this empire right now is not your Majesty the Emperor, but me.”

Hylia stood up from her seat for a moment.

A hand placed on her chest. She bowed her back in a reverential posture.

It was a Ranger’s unique way of greeting.

In the original work, Hylia was a character of minor importance.

The fact that her powerful Sword Master did not appear often in her works meant that she was completely neutral.

Rangers must protect the mountains of the empire. Hillia said she would only be faithful to her duties and that she was in line with central politics.

For now, seeing as he is even acting as the emperor’s messenger, it doesn’t seem like he has completely taken his hands off the central government.

At the time of the original work, she may have had a reason to pursue politics.

“Do you know that many rangers have died due to recent events?”

“Yes. It must have been Decaravia’s doing. “We salute the Rangers who died in the line of duty.”

“Thank you. All of the Empire’s rangers receive lessons from me at least once. “I may not be able to call myself a teacher, but I can still cherish her as if I were her student.”

Hilia seemed to have a special affection for the rangers.

She briefly explained her situation, saying that when she was young, she was raised by the southern rangers, and that she rose to become the leader of the rangers when she grew up.

For Hilia, the subjugation of the Red Feathers of the Northern Mountains was an issue that could never be ignored.

It was a car that I still thought was strange.

I was planning to search the northern mountains myself as soon as I had time, but a report came up that even that expensive communication tool was used.

Baron Iklan. It’s unfortunate that he wandered the mountains alone during this dangerous time, but as soon as he arrived, he called a wizard and asked for communication?

I think the bad feelings at the scene also played a part…… That wasn’t any of Hilia’s business.

“Eloran and Iklan caused great damage to our rangers. Revan Hintz even personally murdered our members. Because we were late in finding out, you two had a hard time with Revan. “I take this opportunity to apologize.”

“Was that the rangers’ fault? There’s nothing to worry about. I know very well the rangers’ strict discipline. “It will be the result of following what was set out.”

“Thank you for your understanding. “Then, since this has happened, I guess I should at least give you a proper repayment.”

Hylia searched inside her arms.

Soon, a green pouch was pulled out of her hand.

A form made by adding green silk to the leather side. It looked quite luxurious with a soft sheen.

The rangers’ mark was drawn in the center of the pocket.

Hylia handed over her pouch to Sirien.

Hilia grinned as her pretty hand reached into her pocket.

“Would you like to open it?”

What was in the pocket was a shiny metal badge.

The basic appearance is the mark of the rangers. It looked like it had been modified a little and decorated.

I guess mine and Sirien’s were put together, but there were two that looked the same.

“This?”

“It means that I recognize the two of you as benefactors of the Rangers. The subjugation of Decaravia and the suppression of Revan Hintz. “There are so many reasons for us to be thankful.”

“I am willing to accept it. “How can I use it?”

“Every Ranger in the Empire knows that badge. “If you show that badge and ask for help, you’ll get what you deserve.”

Is this the so-called VVIP preferential treatment for rangers?

I received something good.

Rangers are a force that can be trusted anywhere in the empire.

It would definitely be reassuring if you could get help when you need it.

Moreover, Hylia seemed to view us quite favorably.

It’s not anyone else’s favor, it’s the Sword Master’s favor. It was like we had a very powerful card in our hands.

“Oh, indeed. “I think the delivery of Baron Iklan’s new soldiers will be a little late. Will that be okay?”

“Is there any problem?”

“I’m not saying it’s a problem…… They are being interrogated ‘very carefully’. Of course, I will share all the information I learn. “If we want, we’ll even have to remember what we had for lunch 10 years ago.”

“Yes, please take your time.”

* * *

After Hilia left, I had one homework left.

It was to comfort Sirien, who seemed strangely upset.

“It seems like you and Director Hilia get along well.”

“Hylia Rukhmin is a famous sword master. “It’s quite meaningful to receive recognition from someone like that.”

“More than what I acknowledge?”

“Of course! “I feel the best when you compliment me.”

“Huh, really?”

Fortunately, today’s saint was in a state where it was as easy as always.

I don’t know the standards. Although I usually lose weight like this quickly, there were some days when it wasn’t easy.

Is there such a thing as disgust?

Anyway, that wasn’t what happened now.

Sirien, who immediately felt better, pulled my arm tightly.

There was a mischievous smile on her pretty face.

“Is Razen happy if I give him an award?”

“That…… “Of course not.”

“Then lie down on the sofa over there for a moment and wait. “I’ll get it ready soon.”

I thought it would end with just a few hugs.

Is it even necessary to prepare? It seemed like there was something I wanted to try and I took the opportunity.

Anyway, I didn’t think it would be a bad idea to do something.

Lie quietly on the sofa and wait for a while. Soon Sirien came back, grinning.

It seemed like he was holding something in his hand. He didn’t show me if he wanted to make a surprise of his own.

Sirien, who was sitting by my bed, slowly approaches me.

Her head lifted briefly and then received a pillow on her lap.

She has received Sirien’s knee pillow several times in the past, and even though she seemed to be able to get used to it, it was not easy.

Her soft touch left me with a strange feeling of heat.

“Lay on your side, not on my side.”

“Like this?”

“Yes, like that. Good job. Just stay still. “You can’t move?”

It’s an amazing thing.

On the outside, her legs looked skinny and thin, but when she actually rested her head on them, they were soft and warm.

Sirien gently tucked the side of her hair behind her ear. Her fingertips were incredibly soft.

At the end of her vision, she can see beautiful silver hair.

It was not difficult to picture Sirien looking down at me with her head slightly bent.

I don’t know what kind of expression she is looking at me right now.

She seemed to be smiling mischievously or having a kind expression.

What was clear was that her caressing hand calmed my mind.

“It was difficult. It was really hard. “It may not be enough, but I hope this award will help you cheer up.”

A voice that is not loud. A soft and beautiful sound reached me.

Soon Sirien was really tickling my ear. It wasn’t a voice, it was a literal meaning.

The earpicks she probably made out of wood. A crunching sound rang inside.

The reward my saint gave me was ear cleaning.
