I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 643
7. Can we now enjoy a seven-day no-reason refund service? (Part 2)
This section is written with 4000 words; it’s too much to send all at once, so I’ve split it into two parts without any repetition.
——
Nilu’s remarks about the church directly revealed more of the script’s content, particularly concerning the “death script” related to that light fairy, Ikusis, who, although I’m reluctant to admit it, is indeed one of my fairies. This made me worry a bit about that foolish saintess!
However, when I took the risk of being misunderstood and suggested to the two big shots, Kfeir and Nilu, that we should hasten our journey and rush to the temple, continuing to risk being discovered for our true purpose, and directly meet Ikusis, the moment we were led by the queen’s subordinates to the so-called “sanctuary” of the saintess and the door was opened…
What appeared was a scene that left me both amused and exasperated. I laughed because there seemed to be no signs of the death script concerning Ikusis happening anytime soon; that fairy was just fine. I cried because…
She was too comfortable.
In the place that those believers must have imagined as the “sacred dwelling of the saintess,” it actually resembled a room stuffed with snacks and piled high with various gossip comics and novels. And in the center of this room, filled with the sweet aroma of food, lay the saintess, who, relying on her fairy identity, could eat without gaining weight, sprawled comfortably on a cushion, striking an indecent pose like a cat wanting to bask in the afternoon sun. From my angle, I could even see her little bear plushie beside her, while she held up a comic book in one hand, munching on something with an “ah-woo” sound.
Although I knew Ikusis was a lazy glutton as a fairy, I never expected the impact of witnessing this scene firsthand to be so much stronger than I had imagined.
I immediately facepalmed and looked at Nilu.
“Nilu, can I return this fairy to you?”
Of course, Nilu’s expression wasn’t much better. Although Ikusis had become my fairy, she had once been a servant granted to me by Nilu.
“If you request it like this, I can take her back and reforge her…”
“…Forget it.”
Once you claim a fairy, you must also take responsibility for her. But… why is it that this foolish saintess is so vastly different from the queen, despite being the same kind of fairy?
Waving my hand to signal the servant nuns attending the saintess to leave, the three of us—Kfeir, Nilu, and I—quietly entered the room. I then knocked on the door symbolically, drawing the attention of the foolish saintess, who had only shouted out without even bothering to see who it was.
“Didn’t I say my stomach hurt?!”
This time, Ikusis finally tossed aside her book with a hint of impatience and looked over. Then, as her gaze landed on me, her earlier annoyance slowly transformed into surprise.
“Master!? Wow! How did you get here!”
Immediately, Ikusis sprang up like a monkey, her legs clad in white stockings crunching the snack bags on the floor as she joyfully ran towards me!
Just this one action completely ruined her otherwise impressive and seemingly pure appearance, which had a hint of “saintly charm”! Anyone who didn’t know better might think I was holding a “monkey fairy”!
And the trouble didn’t stop there.
“I came with Kfir to handle some matters related to the ‘prophecy,’ which might involve you, so I’ll need your help later…”
As I was speaking, it seemed Ikusis had finally noticed the presence of Nilu, who had been quietly following me. I had thought Ikusis was now able to calmly accept Nilu, her “former master,” but I soon realized that the foolish fairy in front of me had simply not noticed her until now.
Then, she froze like a mummy, even maintaining the same expression she had while running towards me.
“Your Holiness… Your Holiness?”
After calling out twice with no response, I glanced at the script and discovered: [The Light Fairy Ikusis was stunned by Nilu’s appearance.]
As expected of you. That’s my only thought at the moment.
I sighed and raised my voice slightly.
“Ikusis!”
Then, I watched as the fairy seemed to awaken from a dream, her whole body shivering for a moment, before she executed a 360° spiral leap—landing at my feet and clinging tightly to my thigh, pulling me back while stammering nervously, speaking in broken phrases.
“Mas-mas-master! She-she-she… she…”
“Ah, Nilu, she came with me, you don’t have to be so scared…”
“Master, save me ah ah ah!”
After that shout, Ikusis buried her head between my pant legs, playing the ostrich.
By the way, Miss Saint, when you decided to recognize me as your master, you didn’t say you’d be clinging to my thigh later; you promised to use your ‘prophecy-fulfilling’ ability to help me, right? Don’t forget your words just because you see Nilu!
There’s no helping it; the one who tied the knot must untie it. Although I’m not too keen on getting too involved with Nilu, I have no choice but to trouble her now.
“Nilu…”
Nilu nodded, a hint of frustration in her gaze as she looked at Ikusis, who was playing ostrich. “Ikusis, get up! You are the fairy of the ‘King.’ I wouldn’t do anything to you, but… if you don’t even have the qualifications to be the fairy of the ‘King,’ I might just have to take you back and remake you!”
Ikusis, still acting like a turtle, shivered but at least lifted her head, cautiously glancing at Nilu, though her hands still clung to me tightly.

“Master, you can do whatever you want to me! My freshly cleaned body is yours to play with however you like. Please, please don’t abandon me! Otherwise, I’ll die! The Dark Lord will kill me!”
I’m not going to play with you! And you, idiot, while you’re fixated on Nilu, maybe pay attention to what you just said that you shouldn’t have. If Nilu is the Black Wuchang, then standing next to her… is a White Wuchang!
“Ugh… get up! Didn’t Nilu already say she wouldn’t make a move against you? What are you afraid of?”
“Ha… haha, it’s not all about the ‘Master.’”
Ikusis’s timid words momentarily halted my actions as I watched her slowly stand up, testing the waters, yet her body still clung tightly to mine.
“Miss Kfeir, why have all the knights of your Great Yingtian Empire run away recently!? The enemies in the church haven’t been dealt with yet, and I’m super tense over here!?”
Kfeir glanced at Ikusis, who was still tightly pressed against me, but then looked at Nilu, likely thinking that at least she couldn’t embarrass herself in front of Nilu. She managed to endure the chaotic scene before her.
“Isn’t it because of your church itself? The knights sensed something was off, and to avoid exposing your connection to the Great Yingtian Empire, they withdrew first to avoid alarming the snake.”
“Eh!? Wh-why is that!? Am I doomed then!?”
Saying this, Ikusis added weakly, and I realized: it seemed that the death script I had seen regarding Ikusis was not just some vague alarmist talk.
After all, the script I was looking at might have some interpretative discrepancies due to expression issues, but I had never forgotten that this timid, foolish fairy Ikusis before me…
As a fairy of light, she also possessed a “prophetic ability” similar to my script abilities!
“Recently, I’ve felt that things in the church have become particularly strange, and… um, haha… sorry, Master…”
In the next moment, Ikusis looked up, her face twisted into a grimace from her bitter smile.
“I think I saw a prophecy of my own death… so I’ve been hiding and not going out lately, hehe~”
Laughing? Seriously, how foolish can you be?
