Her hair was like strands of gold. Elegance emanated from her. Anyone could tell at a glance that she wasn’t a normal person. Her eyes were covered with a dark cloth embroidered with gold, making it difficult to see her entire face, but her nose and mouth were more than enough to convey that she was a breathtaking beauty.

“Pardon me,” Callus said, taking a seat across from Saint Cecilia.

She gave a gentle smile. Callus couldn’t help staring at the blindfold.

“I’m sorry,” she said. “This is distracting, isn’t it?”

“Er, uh, my apologies!” he replied.

He was taken by surprise—he hadn’t expected her to be able to see through the cloth over her eyes. But Cecilia didn’t seem to mind, and she giggled.

“In the Holy Kingdom, it’s customary for saints to never show their faces in front of others. I’m terribly sorry, but I just can’t show my face to you,” she said.

“Huh, so that’s the reason.”

“I know it’s a bit unsettling, but I hope you’ll understand.”

“Please don’t say that. I can tell that you’re a beautiful lady, even with your eyes covered.”

Suddenly, an odd voice resonated through the air. Callus quickly looked around, thinking that it must’ve been a cat, but saw nothing.

“Did you just hear something?” he asked.

“Nothing at all,” Cecilia replied, shaking her head.

“I see...”

Looking a bit disturbed, Callus sat down. Cecilia took a teapot and started to pour tea into his cup.

“I-I can do that myself!” the boy said.

“I mustn’t allow a guest to pour themselves tea. Though I’m a princess from the Holy Kingdom, at this academy, I’m just another student. Do treat me as your equal, if you kindly would.”

“If you say so...”

Respecting her decision, Callus put his lips to the cup of tea. A refreshing aroma tickled his nose and he exhaled. The tea was of good quality—even a single sip allowed him to relax. As he was calming down, he widened his eyes in surprise.

“How is it? Is it suitable for your tastes?” Cecilia asked.

“Ah, yes! It’s delicious!”

“I see. That’s splendid to hear.” She broke out into a smile and put her hands together.

Callus stared at her wordlessly. Several moments passed as the two spent time together in silence and serenity. They simply gazed at each other. Under normal circumstances, this would’ve been awkward for him, but oddly enough, he wasn’t bothered by the silence. He was able to trust the peacefulness, and knew that there was no need to force a conversation. It was comfortable and tranquil. However, he wasn’t willing to remain quiet forever; after he finished half a cup of tea, he decided to pose a question.

“Cecilia, why’d you call me here?”

“I heard that a light magician had entered this school, so I wanted to meet them. Light magicians are rather rare, even in our kingdom, and especially male ones.”

In the Holy Kingdom, only women were able to receive support from the church and become saints. Men could also attain a high rank or status if they knew light magic, but as
