Lady Rose Wants to be a Commoner Chapter 13.5

Chapter 13 . 5 One Act at the Church

The Saint-sama always faced the cross with her eyes closed and hands clasped, praying with a small, quiet voice that no one could hear .

–To be more precise, she had been saying prayers until very recently .

It was at the outermost edge of the town next to the castle .
Today as well, in a remote area somewhere in the countryside, Saint-sama clasped her hands in front of the cross .
She was trembling, as if she would disappear at any moment, and with vacant eyes, she slightly opened her mouth .
A murmur that no one could hear .

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, God, it’s all my fault, I’m sorry, that’s why, that’s why――”

In the end, she berated herself with a soundless voice .
There was no way for that to be called a prayer to God .
To the Saint-sama, this was not even a confession .

The Saint-sama inhaled deeply while keeping her eyes closed . After breathing out, she opened her eyes . Although she appeared gloomy, she had already erased her fading weakness .

“Thank you very much . I am filled with happiness as always…Kami-sama . ”

Saint-sama raised her voice back to a normal volume, as if she had not murmur anything . She bowed once and left the church .
She remembered the guilt of receiving comfort from the admiring eyes of the pastor and nun, who did not hear her voice, as she got in the carriage .
She was returning . Returning home . To the place she didn’t believe she belonged .

The carriage passed by a beautiful female with a majestic atmosphere, despite being a commoner, on the way .

However, Saint-sama did not look out at that time, and the female commoner, who saw the carriage, could not see the person inside due to the curtain-like cloth .

Like this, the thread of fate tangled and twisted, causing the two of them to miss each other .
