ㅤ

ㅤ

I, Kyrie, was on my way back from the Beast Kin country to the Abyss Forest.

In the royal capital, I had just received an apple from a merchant who had been running a street stall as a kindness.

ㅤ

Thank you very much.

ㅤ

“It’s fine. After all, you cured Her Majesty the Queen.”

ㅤ

Ah, but I’ve received so much, I feel guilty. . . . . .

That’s it, Mr. Merchant, let me pray for you.

ㅤ

“A prayer?”

ㅤ

Yes. May this person receive. . . . . .the blessings of God. . . . . .

It was at that moment.

ㅤ

“W, What the?! What is this?!”

ㅤ

Suddenly, the merchant cried out.

What’s the matter?

ㅤ

“My eyes. . . . . .my eyes!”

ㅤ

Eyes?

Indeed, the color of your eyes is different from before.

ㅤ

What happened?

Well, in this case, an appraisal.

ㅤ

■Jade Appraisal Eye (A)

→One of the superior appraisal eyes. It can appraise information about objects considerably.

ㅤ

! It seems that the merchant’s eyes have become appraisal eyes.

ㅤ

“What?! No way! That’s a rare skill that one in 10 million people have! Why did my eyes become like this?! I’ve never had it before!”

ㅤ

Then, Princess Minuet, who was accompanying me, said with a serious expression.

ㅤ

“Could it be. . . . . .due to Kyrie-sama’s power?”

“My Lady’s?! What do you mean, Princess?”

“There is a legend that the ancient Holy Demon King bestowed power upon his monsters. Kyrie-sama is also a Holy Demon King. Perhaps the same power has been applied?”

“I see! Thank you! My La. . . . . .no, Kyrie-sama!”

ㅤ

The merchant bowed his head repeatedly.

But I can’t believe I bestowed it.

ㅤ

Surely. . . . . .because of the merchant’s good deeds, God has bestowed his blessings.

“No! It must be thanks to Kyrie-sama! At least that’s what I think! It’s thanks to you praying for me! Thank you!”

ㅤ

Well, if he says so, I won’t deny it.

“From now on, I will pray to God too!”

ㅤ

That would be good.

It’s joyful that the number of people believing in God is increasing.

ㅤ

After receiving the apple, I was about to leave the place.

ㅤ

“Excuse me! Saint-sama!”

ㅤ

A woman who looked like a mother was approaching me.

What can I do for you?

ㅤ

“Actually, my newborn son seems to be born blind. Could you please pray for him?”

ㅤ

In the arms of the mother, the baby was staring blankly into space.

How pitiful.

ㅤ

I understand, I will pray to God for you.

I gently touched the baby’s forehead.

ㅤ

May this child receive the blessings of God.

Then it happened.

ㅤ

“Thank you, saint-sama.”

“Eh, whaaat?! My son just spoke?!”

ㅤ

The baby in her arms looked at me and said those words clearly.

Can you see now?

ㅤ

“Yes, thanks to saint-sama, I can see clearly now. I believe your prayer has brought a miracle. Thank you.”

“The baby is talking so much?! What?! What’s going on?!”

“Mother, as one blessed by Kyrie-sama, I shall endeavor in my studies to become a worthy individual.”

“He’s even using difficult words?!”

ㅤ

I’m glad your eyes are working now.

Please live happily with your mother.

ㅤ

I bowed to the mother and child and left the place.

ㅤ

“That’s amazing, Kyrie-sama!”

ㅤ

What is it, Miss Minuet?

ㅤ

“Thanks to Kyrie-sama, the baby not only spoke but also became intelligent! It’s incredible!”

ㅤ

What are you saying?

I’m just praying that God’s blessings be upon us.

ㅤ

It’s because God bestowed grace that that child could see, that child could speak.

The cleverness is simply inherent to that child from the beginning.

ㅤ

I haven’t done anything.

I just prayed, that’s all.

ㅤ

“No! It’s definitely thanks to Kyrie-sama! Saint-sama is really amazing!”

ㅤ

Were the townspeople watching the parent and child?

Dodo dodo! A lot of people came to me.

ㅤ

“Please pray for me, saint-sama!” “Please pray for me too!” “Pray for me over here too!”

ㅤ

Many of the town’s people are seeking God’s salvation.

There are so many lost people. . . . . .That’s fine.

ㅤ

I, as a saint, will pray!

May God’s grace be upon this country and all of you!

ㅤ

That’s when it happened.

ㅤ

“Look, look! There’s a light in the sky!” “A rainbow!” “It’s the first time I’ve seen such a big rainbow in the sky!!!!”

ㅤ

It seems that God has decided to bless the people of this country.

It must be because all of you have been doing good deeds.

ㅤ

“Wow! My broken arm is healed?!” “I feel like I’ve learned a lot of magic!” “Whoa! My legs! I can run super fast now!”

ㅤ

I can hear everyone’s joyful voices here and there.

Everyone must be thanking God.

“Thank you, Saint Kyrie-sama!”

ㅤ

Huh? Why are they thanking me. . . . . .?

Even though it’s God who bestowed grace. . . . . .

ㅤ

Many people bow their heads, shake hands, and repeatedly lower their heads in respect.

I don’t want to be thanked. . . . . .It’s troubling.

ㅤ

Princess Minuet, nodding many times, tears in her eyes.

ㅤ

“I will never forget what I saw today. Not only did you save my mother, but you also made the country and the people happy. . . . . .! I will remember it forever, with gratitude!”

ㅤ

That’s good.

Please don’t forget that it was God who helped you and made you happy.

ㅤ

“Eh?”

ㅤ

Eh?

ㅤ

“Yes! I understand. I’ll add that saint-sama is a very humble person!”

ㅤ

Huh?

Humble? Me. . . . . .?

ㅤ

Somehow, the conversation doesn’t seem to match, but. . . . . .

And, it was at that moment.

ㅤ

“Kyrie-samaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

ㅤ

A white-haired Beast Kin, with tremendous momentum, is running towards me.

That’s Mr. Chatura!

ㅤ

“Kyrie-sama! It’s a great relief to see you safe!”

ㅤ

Woo, Mr. Chatura is crying.

What an exaggeration.

ㅤ

“Kyrie, I’m glad nothing happened.”

ㅤ

Oh? Mrs. Kumako.

What’s with that appearance?

ㅤ

“Eh, Ky, Kyrie? How do you know I’m Kumako?”

ㅤ

? Of course, I know, right? By the way you talk and the atmosphere.

ㅤ

“Haa. . . . . .Somehow, I knew it. People who become saints have a different sensibility. Impressive.”

ㅤ

Did I do something impressive?

Well, anyway, thank you both for coming to pick me up.

ㅤ

“Let’s go home!”

ㅤ

Yes.

I turned around and bowed to the people of the Beast Kin country.

ㅤ

Thank you for taking care of me.

ㅤ

“””Thank you very much!!!!”””

ㅤ

So, even though many things happened, I left the land of the Beast Kin.
