Misunderstood Saintly Life Volume 4 Chapter 2 part 1

[Stage 4-2] Independent Mechanical City – Encartón
 

 
Two weeks have passed since the ceremony where I was awarded the title of [Saint] in the royal capital.
 
As a result, noticeable changes have come to my daily life.
 
“…Alice. What’s this?”
 
While spending some relaxed time with Mashiro and the others due to my right arm injury, Alice, who had been summoned by Morina, returned with two boxes in her hands.
 
Placed on the table, they contained so many envelopes that they couldn’t be held with both hands.
 
“First, the contents of this box … Read the rest

As I passed through the gate, a carriage was waiting.
 
According to the original plan, I’m supposed to board this carriage and return directly to the Vellet domain.
 
Normally, I would return to the castle and attend parties for several days, but His Majesty King Anbarld, considering my injury, has graciously exempted me from all of that this time.
 
This is a huge help.
 
I’m already troubled by pain, so I don’t want to accumulate any new stress. …Well, I’ve already experienced more than enough stomach pain.
 
“…This is certainly tiring.”
 
“Good work, Lord Ouga.”
 
Alice, who was waiting next … Read the rest

Right now, I am moved.
 
At last… at last, the time has come for my beloved son to shine.
 
Ouga has always been extremely serious, never neglecting his own training.
 
For someone born into a noble position, lacking “magic aptitude” is something that could drive one to end their life. There have indeed been cases in the past where people troubled by this met such an end.
 
But Ouga didn’t break. He began to rebel against the world, as if to say he didn’t even have time to cry, trying to overcome his misfortune.
 
When … Read the rest

[Stage 4-1] The Birth of a “Saint”
 

A cloudless blue sky—perfect weather for a celebration. A solemn atmosphere permeates the grand hall of the royal castle, bathed in sunlight.
 
I, too, stand tall, displaying a posture befitting a nobleman.
 
“We shall now commence the award ceremony for Ouga Vellet! Ouga Vellet, approach His Majesty King Anbarld !”
 
I begin walking on the red carpet laid out on the marble floor, having waited near the entrance.
 
With each step, the gazes from both sides intensify.
 
It’s the noble lords and ladies’ esteemed appraisal, lined up along the red carpet.
 
After … Read the rest

I confessed to Lord Ouga…!!
 
For several days after realizing my feelings for Lord Ouga, I held back.
 
But perhaps because I felt relieved after punishing Andraus, my nemesis, my love for Lord Ouga overflowed, as if filling a void.
 
His sharp gaze when looking at documents, his strong chest that I should have been used to seeing every day, the smile he shows occasionally, and even his casual gestures – my heart started racing at everything.
 
I know that many wonderful people like Miss … Read the rest

Misunderstood Saintly Life Volume 3 Epilogue

[Epilogue.]
 

 
It’s been a few days since that hectic incident.
 
It’s been officially reported that Juke Andraus was found to be connected to the “Lightning Strike Flone”, and has been secretly executed by the kingdom.
 
Apparently my father, who knows all the details, spoke to the king and had it arranged this way – a simple performance to appease the public.
 
The real him is being held in the kingdom’s underground prison. There’s no reason to kill source of the information.
 
Though, he’s apparently gone mentally unsound and can no longer hold a proper … Read the rest

As the pain in my arm increases, so too does the effect of [Magical Burial] channeling into her.
 
The dark shadows recede from Alice’s body.
 
Her clouded, murky gaze regains its beauty.
 
Reflected there is no longer Andraus, but…
 
“From that day on, all of you has been mine.”
 
“…Ah… Aaah…”
 
“So I won’t accept your resignation… Until I permit it, you will wield the sword for me!”
 
“…Gu… Aa… Ma…”
 
“I will carry the burden of Alice’s past, future, and even this agony… So!”
 
“…Ugh… Aa… Ma…”
 
“Remember… … Read the rest

“Those words are meaningless, intruder. This time, you will die.”
 
“Try saying that after you’ve actually killed someone.”
 
“Bravado, is it…? Next, I’ll tear your body apart!”
 
Alice begins unleashing the killing intent to fire off another [Afterimage Void].
 
I slowly push Reina out of the line of fire, so she doesn’t get caught up in it.
 
“…Reina. I’d like you to leave the rest to me.”
 
“…Will you be alright?”
 
“Don’t worry. I have no intention of losing at all.”
 
Reassured, she steps out of the line between Alice and … Read the rest

“[Magical Burial]!”
 
I thrust my open right hand towards Alice’s chest.
 
Just hit her. Even if she tries to block, a touch is all I need to win.
 
In that moment, [Magical Burial] should activate and break the brainwashing.
 
So I aim for the widest target area, making it harder to evade.
 
“Lukewarm. But I caught a dangerous scent.”
 
“What…!”
 
Releasing her sword with her left hand, Alice twists her hips, the sheathed blade half-turning to parry my thrust.
 
What kind of sense of smell is she using to avoid even … Read the rest

“Okay? This is what’s called a right straight punch.”
 
I draw my fist back to my side, drawing the bow like a spring, and release.
 
Fists colliding, his left arm is crushed, the bone breaking through the skin.
 
“Gyaaah! My arm, my arm!!”
 
“I believe this is how you quiet them down, right?”
 
“Gah…ugh…a…”
 
Mimicking how he silenced the slaves, I strike the man’s temple with force.
 
The violent rattling of his brain within the bone causes him to collapse, eyes rolled back.
 
The muscle-heads are done. Now, the thin-glasses one … Read the rest
