After my rebirth, Miss Saint turned evil

'...'

"Forget it, I'll just write her a letter and ask her when the time comes."

"You can't keep pestering Mr. Murphy, or he'll probably get bored."

After a while, I saw Mr. Murphy stopped in front of a house.

As I expected, it was a rather old house, and Mr. Murphy's financial situation was indeed not good.

"I'd better take on more commissions during this period."

This is the advice Mr. Gerard gave me.

I looked back at Mr. Murphy.

He was slowly turning around and speaking to me.

"I am home."

"......Um."

Chapter 58 Letter

Looking at Murphy's face, it seemed as if she was thinking about something.

Candice knew it was time for her to leave.

"Hey, I successfully found Mr. Murphy's address."

'It's time to go home and write, now.'

Thinking this in her heart, she spoke to Murphy.

"Mr. Murphy, I'll go back first."

"Uh, huh? Uh... Oh oh, okay."

Seeing Murphy's somewhat flustered expression, Candice suddenly felt a little happy.

"It seems Mr. Murphy doesn't completely ignore me."

Although Candice thought so in her heart, after saying goodbye to Murphy, she turned around and left without hesitation.

Studies have shown that most people can feel the gazes of others directed at them.

And Candice certainly can.

She quickly noticed the gaze from behind her and guessed who it belonged to.

Feeling Murphy's gaze that was constantly staring at his back.

Candice's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and her face was unconsciously getting redder and redder.

She wanted to turn around and go back to Murphy countless times.

But in the end, Candice held back.

She tried to steady her pace, walked to the nearest intersection and turned in.

In an instant, the gaze on her back disappeared, and Candice stopped.

She squatted on the ground, covered her chest and breathed heavily.

"Bang bang" "Bang bang"

She felt a strong beating in the palm of her hand, and her face turned red to her ears.

After a while, she slowly calmed her heartbeat, then raised her head and looked around.

Only then did she notice the ambiguous looks from passersby around her, as if they were looking at a girl in love.

She immediately stood up, lowered her head and quickly left.

The wisps of green smoke rising from her head due to excessive shame made her look like a steam "Ji" running at high speed.

-------------------------------------

The inner part of the western city of Border Lars is where the nobles live, while the outer part is usually where the knights live, and Candice's home is here.

She was neither a knight nor a noble, but she was given a name by the magic academy.

Therefore, apart from not having a title, her status is similar to that of some nobles with lower titles.

Her home is a large house with a yard, separate bedrooms, kitchen and living room.

It's much better than the large open space in Murphy's house where the living room is also the bedroom.

In Xicheng District, where every inch of land is valuable, I don’t know how much it would cost to buy it.

Candice opened the door and returned home. The first thing she saw was books, all kinds of books.

The sheer number of books can even make people feel suffocated, as if they will never be able to finish reading them all.

Books can be seen in every corner of this house. They are piled up on the floor or on the bookshelves, leaving no room for movement.

But this was Candice's home after all. She walked around the books with ease and went to her bedroom.

The bedroom is large, but the interior is very simple, with only some necessary furniture.

A big bed that looked very soft at first glance, and a wardrobe filled with the same gray robes and big gray hats that Candice was wearing.

In the corner was a wooden shelf filled with wands not much different from the large wand she had used before.

There is also a lower chair and a matching desk in the room, with a few books on the desk.

Candice walked to the desk and sat on the low chair.

Then she took out the letter paper and quill from the side and began to write.

-------------------------------------

Dear Miss Philia Reinhart,

Long time no see. How are you doing now?

......

Remember the topics we talked about when we chatted before?

It's about the person in each of our hearts who is worthy of our trust.

I think I have successfully met the person who belongs to me.

His name is Murphy. He was once an orphan raised by the Lars Church and is now an adventurer living here.

Like you, he is a swordsman.

My first encounter with him was in the maze, where he saved me from being crushed to death by a giant dragon's claws.

Do you remember what I told you before about my definition of a strong person?

Mr. Murphy is everything I said he was, gentle and powerful at the same time.

Even when facing the weak me, he was able to extend a helping hand to me with kindness.

Similarly, even when facing a powerful dragon, he can draw his sword and fight it without fear.

Therefore, I was completely attracted to him.

......

I am writing to you this time to ask you something.

......

If we were face to face, I definitely wouldn't be able to say it.

Okay, that’s the end of the letter.

Looking forward to your reply and our next meeting.

Your friend,

Candice Greathatter

-------------------------------------

Candice put the written letter into an envelope and filled in Filia's address in the royal capital.

She stood up from her chair, walked to the shelf and took a wand, then walked to the wardrobe and took a hat and put it on.

Then, he left his bedroom and prepared to go to the post office to mail the letter.

She once again walked around the pile of books in the living room and went to the door.

Just as she was about to open the door, it rang first.

"Knock knock knock knock"

The knock on the door was urgent.

It can be guessed that the person standing outside the door may be very anxious.

"..."

Candice thought about it for a moment and knew who was standing behind the door.

She opened the door and a dazzling silver light came into view.

Well, it was just as she expected.

"Hey! Candice, long time no see!"

"...Filia."

The person outside the door was her best friend, Filia Reinhardt.

The long silver hair was tied into a high ponytail with a simple black hairband, giving people a very clean and neat feeling.

Beneath the raised eyebrows were a pair of silver-pink eyes, so sharp that they seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Candice was penetrated by these eyes and her weak nature was exposed.

Filia's upper body was not wearing half-body armor like a swordsman like Murphy, but a lighter piece of clothing.

It's probably just a white short-sleeved shirt inside, and a black sleeveless jacket outside.

The hem of the black jacket, which is at the waist on both sides, has a vertical slit to facilitate greater movements of the body.

Her lower body was not wearing trousers or a skirt, but a pair of shorts that were tight to her thighs and two black stockings that were above her knees.

This kind of clothing not only covers most of the body's skin, but also makes it easier to move the body.

Because the swordsmanship of the Reinhard Sword Master family is more inclined towards speed and dexterity, they do not pursue bold and aggressive swordsmanship.

Therefore, they need a more flexible body to perform their movements.

"How was it? Was it a surprise?"

Filia stood at the door, looking at Candice with a smile.

Chapter 59: Girls' Secret Talk (End of Volume 1)

Filia stood at the door, looking at Candice with a smile.

"How was it? Was it a surprise?"

"A little bit, indeed."

Seeing Candice nod, Filia seemed a little happy.

The corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a smile that looked like a successful prank, and even her eyes narrowed into slits.

Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly caught sight of the envelope in Candice's hand.

"Huh? Are you going to deliver a letter?"

"Yes."
