“Is that okay? In front of you, Archbishop Karitos, it would be better for the Queen Mother to give them to Shasha, but it was taken away…”
“I didn’t take it away. But I thought it might look better if I give it, so… that’s why.”
He muttered like a younger sibling with a significant age difference. Of course, Haven seemed unaffected, but Karitos looked quite affected. Blushing, he lightly tapped Haven’s shoulder.
“Anyway, thank you both. Haven, go to Shasha with that. She’ll really like it.”
“Thank you, Queen Mother. I was worried it might be taken away, so I picked it to give to Shasha. Thanks for bringing the cake.”
Sure enough, he rushed off.
“Ha… How on earth do they educate the kids in the temple? The High Priest doesn’t take my words lightly.”
“You’re just like him. And bringing that child with you is your doing too, so think of it as reaping what you’ve sown, High Priest.”
Sehelus, at this point, seemed to think so and nudged Karitos gently.
“…Ha. Matapju X…….”
“Merkin, don’t you want to go to Shasha quickly?”
“Uh… Can I…?”
“Of course, go ahead! Go quickly. Also, ask Anna, Shasha’s maid, to cut the cake over there. Thanks for bringing the cake.”
“Yes!”
As soon as the words were over, Merkin ran towards the kids in a hurry, shaking hands with them. Meanwhile, the bickering between the Matapju and the High Priest did not stop.
“I’m worse than the kids.”
“What are you talking about, Isabella.”
“You’re fighting. The kids get along well without fighting, but the adults fight all the time. Maybe we should send only the kids next time.”
“Where is that? I brought Haven to come with me!”
“…Come with you?”
Perhaps thinking it was a mistake, Karitos hastily clapped his hands.
“No. Anyway, I won’t fight. We’re not children. Right, Matapju? Let’s get along. Not much.”
“…Whatever.”
“…Would you not want to come later?”
The High Priest looked at Sehelus.
“Well, even if you don’t, Isabella will call me.”
“What?”
Karitos looked at me with a shocked face. But I am a person who treats everyone equally.
“I won’t call you even if I need you. Only if you get along with each other.”
In response to that, Sehelus also had a shocked expression.
“Isabella, I thought we were getting along…”
“That’s right. Anyway, everyone has to get along. Okay? If you don’t want to be treated worse than the kids.”
With that said, Sehelus belatedly held Karitos’ hand.
“…I have no choice but to say that.”
“Is it okay to fight outside?”
Meanwhile, Karitos, who couldn’t give up, subtly rolled his eyes. It looked cute, so I chuckled.
“Alright. Instead, please refrain from breaking anything or causing the ground to shake. I don’t want to be surprised.”
“Yes!”
It was strange. Was Karitos such a friendly person to me? Sehelus was always friendly, and he seemed to have different feelings towards me, but not Karitos.
But the sudden change in Karitos was somewhat puzzling.
“Then, let’s all have tea and get along…”
“Ah.”
I stared at Karitos in surprise at his words to have tea.
“High Priest. I have a favor to ask.”
At the mention of a favor, he sparkled his eyes.
“For the Queen Mother?”
“Yes.”
“Anything! I can do anything! I can even pick flowers until the temple’s flower garden becomes a field of dirt.”
“Other than that, can you give a blessing?”
At that, Karitos, as if to give a blessing right away, stood up from his seat.
“Of course. While my blessings as a High Priest are not given to anyone, since the Queen Mother wishes, I will do it for you.”
“No! Not for me!”
Thinking he might give a blessing to me, I quickly moved away.
“Yes…? Then to whom should I give the blessing…?”
“To Anna’s sister. Anna, who became Shasha’s maid, has a sister. I hope you could give a blessing to her sister. So that she won’t be sick, and she can get better.”
“…Giving a blessing to someone I don’t even know? The High Priest’s blessing is not something that can be given to anyone…”
As if a wet magpie got scared of the rain, Karitos, who was flapping his arms, quickly became sullen.
“So, I’m asking. She’s someone I’ve decided to help. But I think the priest’s help is needed more than mine.”
However, even with such words, Karitos showed no sign of change. He even made a gloomy expression as if he had to do something unpleasant.
“I’m asking you. Instead, I’ll do anything for Karitos when he needs me later.”
“…….”
“I boasted that I know a priest.”
“…You have to go…”
“What?”
“You have to listen to anything, no matter what!”
Karitos smiled brighter than ever.
“Okay.”
“Then where should I go?”
“Just go with Sehelus. He will guide you.”
“…With him?”
Karitos looked at Sehelus with a rather displeased face.
“Yes. You must go with him. He cast a spell.”
“…Well, if that’s the case… Since the Queen Mother said that you grant wishes… I should reluctantly go and come back. But with him?”
While saying that, he sighed deeply.
“I don’t want to go either. It’s because Isabella asked. But Isabella… Do you really believe in the priest named X? That he grants wishes… The High Priest is not a trustworthy person.”
“But what can I do? I made a promise.”
“He’s a trustworthy person!”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
