A young girl in a village without protection - Chapter 110

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

In order to be able to use the power of Norn, the goddess of fate, Selesina decided to start with daily prayers.

She prays in the morning and evening in the prayer room on the first floor of the Great Temple. The rest of the time, unfortunately, she is very busy preparing for the wedding and other things.

Hisui will be wearing the vestments of the Blessed Priests and will be studying about the Great Temple for a while. However, he has been given permission by Selesina’s inner circle, so he often stays close by.

Toi’s fluffy adorableness is on full display, and he is a hit with the priests and priestesses.

***

Three days after she arrived at the High Temple, Selesina was able to meet Lucaria.

“I’m very sorry that I couldn’t greet my fiancée yet……”

“Don’t worry about it, you’re a busy man.”

Selesina smiles at the depressed Lucaria. Anyway, the past few days had been full of hidden quests and training.

As for Lucaria, it seemed that she was visiting because she had a meeting with a noble from another country. Perhaps it was a matter of consultation regarding the Great Tree.

“How is life in the Great Temple, Lady Selesina? If you need anything, please contact me immediately.”

“Thank you very much. Everyone has been very kind to me, and since Hisui and Toi are with me, there is no inconvenience at all. “

I’m well-rested at night and have three delicious meals prepared for me. I was able to see the Great Tree thanks to Hel accompanying me.

Hearing Selesina’s reply, Lucaria smiled as if relieved.

“I’m glad. You may think that it is too late……, but I have no intention of forcing the matter.”

“………….”

Selesina simply smiled back at Lucaria’s words. He looks like a good-natured young man, but deep down he seems to be quite black.

(You might want to keep your guard up…..)

“Speaking of it, how is Hel doing?”

“Hel? The day I arrived, he welcomed me and took me to the Great Tree……. I haven’t seen him since then.”

“I see……”

Lucaria looked a little troubled, and Selesina tilted her head, wondering what was going on.

(Or rather, what happened to the room with the chains?)

Since the quest about Hel is in progress, Selesina thinks that it would be better to check it out. However, it would be quite dangerous if someone found her in the current situation.

As Selesina was thinking about it, she heard a suggestion from Lucaria.

“If you don’t mind, I’d like you to talk to Hel. Of course, only when you’re not busy.”

“I would be delighted if I could.”

“Are you sure? Thank you very much. Hel is a bit shy. He doesn’t come out of his room unless he’s in trouble…… But he seems to have opened up to you, Selesina, so you can relax.”

Hel, whom I had thought I would never see, seemed to be shutting himself away in his room.

He’s probably in his room in the basement, but I wonder if it’s not too depressing to be in a place like that. After all, we are human beings and the best thing to do is to get some sunshine.

(Oh, maybe we should just take a walk and have a chat…)

In this way, we could enjoy the sunshine, talk, and even exercise. It’s not just killing two birds with one stone, it’s killing three birds with one stone.

If there was anything to worry about, it would be Hel’s physical condition.

“Is Mr. Hel in good physical condition? I would hate it if he would get sick because of me.”

“Oh, that’s no problem. Basically, he’s just not good with people and vehicles, so as long as that’s not the case, he’ll be fine.”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“Well then, I guess we’ll be fine.”

There was nothing particularly to worry about his physical condition, so Selesina stroked her chest in relief.

***

The next day, Hel, who seemed to have been told by Lucaria, came to visit Selesina’s room. As usual, he was wearing his hood deeply, but at a glance, he seemed to be in good health.

“Hey.”

“Good morning, Master Hel.”

Hel entered Selesina’s room and took off his hood.

He always seemed to be wearing a hood because of the presence of other people inside the Great Temple.

(Not being able to settle down in the Great Temple is pretty inconvenient, isn’t it…… that’s why he’s been shut in.)

“Well…… do you want to go for a walk?”

“You know, a walk is definitely a walk in the park. I hate it.”

“Ahmm, yeah but it’d be nice to walk and get some exercise…….”

The first thing to do is to take it easy and have tea time in the garden or somewhere.

(Or maybe go see the big tree?)

That would give us some exercise since there are spiral stairs on the way.

So in the end, we came to the big tree.

Lucaria had given us permission to go to the tree, so there was no need to hesitate. Hel lay down in front of the tree.

“Mmmm, that feels good……”

“I think I’m going to fall asleep.”

“It’s a nice, warm, sunny day. It’s a perfect day for a nap.”

“……You know, you said you eat three meals a day and take naps.”

I wondered if it was the time when he usually took a nap. I’m sure he’ll be able to understand why I’m so excited about this.

(Yes, it is……)

I was surprised at how well he slept.

Selesina sat down on the floor next to the sleeping Hel and looked at his sleeping face. It’s so innocent, it’s hard to believe he’s going to be the boss.

(How can I change Hel’s fate?)

In the first place, I don’t know how to make choices about his fate. I’m prepared for a long battle, but the sooner it’s over the better.

“So far, I’ve been able to change my fate with the flower of the great tree, the platinum rose, and Hisui’s injury.”

What do they have in common, I wondered to myself.

The place, the time, and the subject are different. The platinum rose, although unusual, is just a rose that has nothing to do with either the tree or the blessing…

So, there is one thing that comes to my mind.

“Maybe it’s my feelings?”

I don’t know if I’m right, but that’s all I can think of at the moment.

“But if that’s the case, it’s going to be difficult unless Hel is in trouble……”, Selesina thought.

“Okay, I’ll try harder…….”

I don’t have a clear answer in mind what I should try to do, but if I can create a future for myself where Hel doesn’t become a ruthless boss – I’ll just run like a maniac.

Selesina said, “Whoosh!” And with that, she practiced praying to the goddess Norn by touching the Great Tree.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
