The days passed, and our stay at the Church ended up being much longer than I’d expected. Two weeks, to be precise. And boy were these the roughest two weeks of my life.

Why, you ask?

Kieran.

“Milady, allow me to express my faith— Hector? What are you doing? A...bad influence? How dare you say my very existence is a bad influence— Ah! Stop! Unhand me! Wh-Why, you... Just because you’re a tad stronger...! Back off, you brute! Hectooor!”

“Wh-Why... Why is milady growing fond of Hector, and not me?! I know harboring such desires is presumptuous, but even so... B-Besides, won’t the frequent company of such a crude man hinder her education...? But I must respect her wishes...”

“How strange... Why do I sense that Lord Zil has also developed quite the fondness for Hector...? Even more so than me? No, no, that cannot be... Hector hasn’t even stripped yet.”

“Lord Zil, I have finished training the grunts. Now, all it would take is a mere word from you and they will gladly claim their own lives. You may test it on this fellow right here. See? He’s quite happy to have received my recommendation. Oh, you may test it on me as well, of course.”

“Lord Zil, I believe the pope’s voluminous beard obscures his faith. After all, the mouth is the front door of the human body. Only those housing impure intent would dare to conceal it. Though he has yet to be permitted to strip his garments, what of his beard? If you so wish, we could even arrange a permanent hair removal...”

Just...what in the world was up with this guy?

Oh, that last bit? Well, that beard was practically the pope’s signature look, so obviously I turned him down. Then, the pope took it as a rejection of his faith and proceeded to bawl his eyes out.

Anyway...

At first, I’d dreaded that hanging around a flock of fanatics would do a number on my sanity, but all things considered, the members of the Church were tame compared to the force of nature that was Kieran. Unfortunately, this meant that my stress levels wouldn’t catch a break even after leaving the Church... Well, I suppose the Church and their efforts at “becoming as worthy as Sir Kieran” had contributed a bit to my stress... Either way, it didn’t change the fact that I was at my wit’s end.

Just then, Hector came over with Gracie riding on his shoulders. “We heading out soon, boss?”

Aah, Hector. My most exceptional and outstanding subordinate. He must have sensed my inner turmoil and came to check on me. Such steadfast devotion... I was on the verge of being moved to tears.

“With all of the Church’s heavenly arrays within my grasp, it’s about time we take our leave. It appears some have been lost to time, but that is no more than a trifling matter.”

Yeah, right. I was actually suuuper bitter about it. Of course, Zil wouldn’t be caught dead stomping his feet and throwing a tantrum, so I feigned indifference.
