The Train Moves with the Ring of the Bell While Arthur had been harsh in his dealings with the inland nobles, Maki and Chiharu had already made up their minds about leaving before that. It’s not that it was so bad, making money off their magic gems without doing anything, it was a good…
And Finally A short time before the final banquet, Sera went to Maki and Chiharu’s room to help them prepare. As the two did not take long to prepare, she would only have to give a little advice and quickly fix their hair. Sera wished that she could help them more, but they tended to…
What They Wanted Returned The adults from the southern region were shocked at this, and so they berated her. “Chouze, you go too far. You are being rude to the Saintesses who are loved by God.” “Hmph. Saintesses are exchangeable things. God will drop a new one in three months even if these two…
When It’s Hard Being an Adult While they did leave the palace every day, they did not use that much money. Still, Maki and Chiharu did not like having to ask the Chancellor every time they needed something, so it was decided that they would have their own bank accounts. Yet another gem had fallen…
It’s a Train if they are Connected After that, Sera excitedly helped them select clothes to wear for their city excursion. As they would be disguised as boys, they chose dark pants, cream-colored shirts, and a tunic that went over it. The hemline was much shorter than the types that women wore. And then…
I Always Wanted to Say ‘Put it on my Tab’ They finished breakfast, and as they had not been told anything today, Maki and Chiharu were relaxing on the balcony and looking outside. It seemed that Arthur was currently very busy preparing for something. The bird people had finally taken the hint and only…
Quick Work Miragaia had said it would be a quick stroll, but he ended up flying way up high. Maki said something to him and pointed in different directions and he would take her there. “Maki seems to be very calm about it.” Arthur muttered. “Maki is more accepting of things…
Night Flight In the end, their third day did not consist of any fruitful discussion of future plans, and the two went off to bed exhausted. Chiharu had always hated noisy alarm clocks, and in Japan, she had always used an alarm clock that sounded like the song of a little bird. She had…
The Reason that Saintesses are Not to be Picked Up “I had really thought that your chief would come here directly.” “I as well.” Zynis and Arthur said. “Our chief did want to come, but was persuaded that we would get here much quicker, as we are younger.” “Indeed. It is very troublesome…
When Soft Whispers in Your Ear Don’t Result in a Romance Flag Maki and Chiharu looked towards the voice and saw the newcomers just as their wings folded neatly. Bird people! Maki looked at Chiharu excitedly. So there were others aside from dog people after all! They were a pair; a man and a…
Days When Bad Things Come From the Sky The next day, Maki and Chiharu were in the king’s study. “Are you prepared to hear more now?” “Yes, please tell us.” “Hmm. That being said…” The king began. “The most important part was told to you yesterday. You two should live the rest…
A Blue Sky Day It was quite the luxury to have lunch prepared for you in the garden. They would not have been able to ask for it yesterday. However, it seemed that being overly modest here would probably only make them worry. Or so Chiharu thought, and so she had declared that she wanted…
The Day That Something Returned “Just as we expected. It was unbearable for a young lady.” Grudo said kindly. No, I can bear it just fine? Maki raised her chin. “Maki, you are the first Saintess ever who has not fainted.” “I’m quite active, so small injuries are nothing to me. But Chiharu…
The Day Something Fell Again Sera opened the door. There were two knights standing watch just outside. Apparently, they were going to escort them to the king’s office. One walked in front, the other in the back. They walked as they took in their surroundings that they had not been able to focus on yesterday.…
Hangover Day is Miso Soup Day Chiharu was the one who woke up first. There was a slight pain in her head that remained as proof that she had drunk way too much the previous night. “I’m not in college anymore, that was dumb… Alcohol deserves better.” She mumbled. Then chuckled over the…
