After my rebirth, Miss Saint turned evil

There was another knock on the window behind her, and Ella knew that she could no longer escape.

After all, it's impossible to let Murphy wait outside the window forever.

Although there are almost no people in this small courtyard specially for nuns to live in during the day.

But, if someone suddenly came and found Murphy...

Thinking of this, Ella stood up suddenly and stretched out her hands to grab the curtains.

Just before pulling away, she took a few deep breaths, adjusted her facial expression, and put on a smile that Murphy was familiar with.

Although her smile now looks a little funny against the backdrop of the red mark on her forehead.

Calming down, I suddenly pulled open the curtains and saw the face I had always wanted to see.

As expected...I still get excited when I see you suddenly appear here.

Ella almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face, she really wanted to see Murphy.

However, even so, she still tried hard to calm her excitement.

Because this is how she should be in front of Murphy.

As for that embarrassing moment just now...what was that? Why didn't she remember it?

Murphy looked at Ella who opened the curtains and breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't know whether Ella didn't want to see him or if there was something else going on.

In short, the waiting time is always the most tiring.

He pointed to the window lock, asking Ella to help him open it.

Although it is definitely possible to pry it open, it is best not to show this kind of thing in front of Ella.

Ella nodded and opened the window so that he could climb in smoothly.

Now, Ella had a lot of things she wanted to say to him and many questions she wanted to ask him.

So after Murphy came in, she closed the window, drew the curtains, and said hurriedly: "Mei——"　

But she didn't finish her words, because the person who just came in - Murphy, touched her forehead with his hand.

The rough fingers made the rest of her words stuck in her throat.

"Forehead, is it okay?"

"what......"

Seeing the worry in Murphy's eyes, Ella opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.

She was delighted, but could only utter meaningless monosyllables.

That feeling of worry is definitely not fake.

She confirmed once again that the man in front of her was indeed her Murphy, the childhood sweetheart who loved to do evil but was also extremely gentle.

Although due to his own reasons, he hasn't done anything bad for a long time.

Ella slowly lowered her head, feeling the touch of the rough big hand, and said softly: "Hmm... It's okay, it doesn't hurt at all."

Actually, it still hurts a little, but I can't show that weak look in front of Murphy.

But it seemed to be of no use, as he saw through it at a glance.

"That's it."

Murphy looked at Ella deeply, poked her forehead gently with her fingers, and then removed her hand from her forehead.

"Murphy…I…I missed you."

Although I haven't seen you for just a few days, I still miss you so much.

Although there are many questions in my mind, they don’t matter anymore.

As long as you are here, by my side now, isn't that enough?

"Yes, me too."

Listening to Ella's true feelings that were inadvertently revealed, Murphy took a step forward and gently hugged her.

Ella did not resist, but slowly closed her eyes.

They just closed their eyes and felt each other's body temperature.

After a long time, they reluctantly parted.

Ella gently touched Murphy's hand with her own.

Murphy understood what was going on, so he reached out and held Ella's hand.

"hey-hey."

Ella narrowed her eyes in laughter.

Then, she slowly led Murphy to the bed through her two connected hands and sat down.

"Let me tell you, Kelly's mom is really bad."

"she......"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Perhaps because she was really bored, Ella started talking non-stop after sitting down.

There were complaints about Kelly's mother's mischief;

There were complaints about the boring time they spent in this room;

besides......

Murphy sat beside her, holding her hand and listening quietly.

Chapter 47: Yes, yes, you are right

Murphy just looked at Ella with gentle eyes and listened to her joys and sorrows during these days.

He would respond occasionally, nod at Ella, or laugh along with her.

The two were just chatting about random things, and apart from the first sentence "I miss you", they didn't say anything else to express their affection.

But for Ella, that was all that mattered.

One room, two people, and some casual conversation.

Just this is enough.

Ella seemed to have finished speaking. She let out a long sigh, fell to the side, and then lay on Murphy's legs.

She looked so lazy, like a house cat, and didn't look like a saint at all.

Huh? Saint Candidate...

Come to think of it, how did she become a candidate for the Saint?

Is it just talent or is there something else going on?

Murphy suddenly realized the problem. He lowered his head and looked at Ella's profile covered by her long white hair.

If it were now, I should be able to ask.

Anyway, from Ella's perspective, Murphy already knew about this when she came last time.

Thinking of this, Murphy reached out and gently stroked Ella's smooth white hair.

"By the way, Ella, how did you get chosen as a candidate for the Saint? I still don't know."

"Uh-huh."

Ella, who was immersed in Murphy's touch, did not notice that this was a problem at first, and just uttered a few meaningless monosyllables to perfunctorily answer him.

But there's nothing I can do. After all, lying on his lap like this and having him touch my head is really too comfortable.

After a while, Ella realized that Murphy had just asked her a question.

She thought about it for a moment and remembered the content of the question.

"Candidate Saint... Ah, you mean that? Come to think of it, I don't think I've told you that yet, and you had already left the Church at that time."

Ella turned around, lying on her back on Murphy's legs, and looked him in the eye.

"Actually, I don't know the exact reason. It's probably... the day I came of age, when the old man returned from a business trip to the capital and brought me something called Cassia's Oracle."

"Then I was inexplicably chosen as a candidate for the Saint."

After hearing Ella's answer, Murphy was a little surprised.

It wasn't because what she just said was too shocking, but because she said it too simply.

Murphy knew:

Unlike the goddesses in some fantasy novels or film and television dramas, the goddess in this world, at least the goddess on the human side - Cassia, is actually quite active.

Although she doesn't show up every day, Cassia often sends down oracles to the cathedrals in the royal capital or the imperial capital, guiding the church on the next steps to take.

It seems that the reason why Old Jed and Candice went to the maze before was also because of the goddess' oracle.

"Ah! But I'm also working hard."

"Huh? What?"

Ella, who was lying on Murphy's legs, suddenly said something, and Murphy's pupils, which had lost focus due to deep thought, began to refocus.

But he still didn't understand what Ella had just said.

I'm working hard...working hard on what?

Seeing Murphy's clueless look, Ella pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Fool......"

"what the hell?"

In Murphy's eyes, Ella's puffed-up mouth was actually a way of acting coquettishly towards her.

He smiled at Ella and stroked her hair once more.

After a while, Ella's face, which had bulged out like a pufferfish, began to deflate gradually.

At the same time, she also showed an expression that looked very comfortable.

“Actually, I work very hard.”

"I worked very hard a long time ago."

"I always take the initiative to help Mother Kelly with work, and in return I get the qualification to learn divine arts from her."

"And that Holy Scripture, I've read it many times."

Turning her head in the direction of Ella's finger, Murphy saw the thick book on the bedside table.

Even though it was closed now, he could still vaguely see the slightly raised footer.

Ella reached out her hands and gently stroked Murphy's cheeks.

Then, with a slight force, he turned his head back, making sure that his eyes were fixed on him without stopping for a moment.

"I don't think the current result is actually due to the goddess' oracle."

"But I got it myself, through these hands."

She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said in a gentle tone: "Murphy, I really have tried my best."

“I really, really tried hard.”

"so......"

——So, I hope you can always just look at me.

From Murphy's perspective, Ella just opened her mouth but no sound came out.

So he didn't hear Ella's last words at all.

"So...what?"
