nA loud groan from the bad man who got stepped on his face resounded in the area. The duke, the knights, and even the children were dumbfounded at the scene of a gorgeous lady falling from the sky and saving the boy named Blake from the bad man.

nThud!

nThe slave trader fainted on the ground with a clear boot print on his face, his nose still bleeding from the nice scene of heaven he had seen before the hell called foot landed on his face.

nThe last word the bad man had spoken before fainting is:

"Black.

" He is talking about the color of the underpants Eirwen Night is wearing inside his white dress.

nSnorts!

"Damn lunatic! Trying to steal my food money!

" said Eirwen Night.

nEveryone in the area recognized who the lady in a white dress was, including the children.

n

"Ah! It's that beautiful lady! Blake stole the purse from me!

" a child exclaimed, breaking the awkwardness and silence in the crowd.

nThe knights started murmuring.

n'Isn't that's Lady Night!?'

n'What is she doing here? Are the Saintess allowed to leave the castle?'

n'She must have sneaked out. Look at her dress. It's a commoner clothing.'

n'But she still looks pretty in commoner's clothes. Even wearing such quality clothes, she still looks like a noble lady.'

n'H-Hey... did you hear that slave trader's last words? He says black. Did he see the lady...'

n'Shss~ the duke is here. Watch your mouth.'

nEirwen Night ignored the crowd as always and saw the boy who bumps on him before and stole his food money. He crouched down and met the boy named Blake's height and pinched his cheeks like marshmallows.

n

"Kid~ where did you put my pouch? That is my food money. Now I couldn't even buy my cakes~

" said Eirwen, still pinching Blake's cheeks.

nBlake felt the pain of his cheeks throbbing from being pinched badly by this bullying young lady. She might be beautiful but she is still a bad woman. A witch. She's a witch.

n

"W-Witch! L-Let go. I'll... return the money~

" said Blake.

nEirwen let go of his cheeks and flicked the boy's forehead.

nHiss~

"What is your problem? Why hit me!?

" complains Blake who now has a swollen forehead from a single flicked from Eirwen.

nEirwen also eyed the other two children who are now hiding behind the knights when they saw the pretty lady who saved them flicked Blake on his forehead and saw their friend's swollen head.

n

"Come over here while this Jiejie is still asking nicely~,

" said Eirwen Night to the other two children with a malicious smile on his exquisite face.

nThen knights were also fidgeting at the scene of Lady Night smiling. It was a breathtaking scene at the same time it was scary.

nDuke Damian who was watching silently spoke,

"Give him the children.

" he said to the knights.

nThe knights picked up the two children and brought them over, placing the two in front of the smiling beautiful lady in white dress.

nFlicked once. Flicked Twice.

nOwie!!!

nAs the two terrified children expected they've also received a single aching flick on their foreheads. Now the three boys who are friends share that same trademark of swollen foreheads.

n

"Don't you dare steal anymore!? It is a bad deed no matter what the reason it is. Do you think your parents would be happy if they learned you stole someone's money and used it on them? It will still be dirty money as long as you didn't earn it on your own!

" scolded Eirwen Night.

nThe children started crying after being reprimanded by Eirwen.

nWuaa~ But my father's arm... The doctor says it is crippled and needs to be cut. But my father is a blacksmith. He needs both hands to create weapons~

nMy mom is bedridden. T-They say she wouldn't live long before dad came back home. We have no money. I couldn't buy any medicine.

nI-I only want to help the two of them. I don't have any money nor have any parents. I'm a beggar but Blake and Kris would still play with me. Aunt and Uncle would give me food in exchange for doing courses. I wanted to help them!

nThe sounds of children wailing echo in the alley which made most adults don't know what to do. Eirwen and Duke Damian reacted otherwise. They calmly observed the situation and thought about what they should do next in silence. Eirwen glances at the duke and they exchange their gaze for a few seconds.

nEirwen Night spoke,

"Can I borrow your knights for a bit, Duke Damian Adrienne?

"

n

"Yes. You may order them as your wish, Lady Night,

" responded Duke Damian respectfully despite his face being expressionless the whole time.

nHost, I found the children's parents. The blacksmith had a strained ligament and it's painful to move it. His right arm is dislocated and there is no need for surgeries. The sick madam is suffering from fever. It must be a pandemic as most people in the commoner's area are suffering from the symptoms of diarrhea, fever, vomiting, and weakening.

nIn his thoughts, Eirwen replies,

"Is it Cholera? Are there herbs which could be used as a substitute for antibiotics in this world?

"

nThis... Yue is not an expert when it comes to herbs. I don't know which herbs can be useful.

n

"I see. Then I will give you two lists of the herbs I need. One is for the cure and one is an alternative that would hold back the bacteria from spreading inside the body. Look if it's available in this world. If not, inform me right away and I would think of a substitute to use.

nI've also planted a lot of herbs in the dimensional space. I'm sure most of the herbs I've listed are available there. Prepare it for me.

" said Eirwen as he passed two lists of herbs to his system before cutting off their conversation.

nYes, Host. I will prepare the herbs in bulk.

nMoving his gaze to the soldiers,

"Can you get the doctor who diagnosed this boy's father.

" said Eirwen Night.

nThe knights saluted and followed the command of Lady Night. Though Duke Damian is their lord, the standing of the beautiful lady in front of them is still higher than their lord. After all, Lady Night is a candidate for the Saintess. Just the possibilities of her being the Saintess give her a standing that could sometimes be higher than the king in some places.

nThe children started to calm down when they heard the lady in a white dress talking to the soldiers about calling a doctor. The boy called Blake is quite smart. He instantly stopped crying and went to the stone table with coins on it. He gathered everything and put the coins back in the black pouch he stole from the lady then he returned the pouch to her while apologizing.

n

"L-Lady Night, I'm sorry. I shouldn't... We shouldn't have stolen your pouch~

"

n

"We're sorry Lady Night.

"

n

"Sorry, ~~

"

n

"Forgiven.

"

nEirwen Night receives the pouch which is now heavier than before. Obviously, the children had put all his coins and the other stolen coins in his pouch. He opened his pouch and gave the children some money.

n

"Go buy lots of food. This lady is hungry after running after you brats for the whole morning. Afterward, when the doctor comes with the soldiers let's check on your mother and father together. Don't worry I am here. They couldn't die even if they wanted to.

" said Eirwen Night.

nThe children didn't understand the hidden meaning behind his words but Duke Damian could somehow understand what Eirwen's words meant vaguely. His eyes narrowed for a split second and a glint of gold was seen crossing within those eyes.

nThe children on the other hand had run off to buy food with the money they've received from Lady Night. Since they were told to use all the coins to buy the food they would use every single coin to buy anything that can be eaten. Once the children had left the alleys, Eirwen Night languidly walked towards the stone table.

nDuke Damian saw the hovering little white snowflakes around the young man and even cleaned the stone chairs and tables Eirwen would be using. The young man in a white dress seemed to be used to this and sat down on the clean stone to rest.

nIn his mind,

"Yue~ this body is so weak. My legs are numb just from falling at such height.

"

nHost your legs aren't not just numbed, it's broken! Ah~ if not for you running qi in your body your leg bones would shatter to pieces.

n

"What could I do? My soul in this body is incompatible. I never had any compatibility with the holy element since I was born but Eirwen Night's vessel is full of light elements. It's making me feel uncomfortable. Is there a way to disperse the light elements in this body, Yue?

"

nThere is... but If the host does it you would lose the mission of becoming a saint.

n

"I do not care if I become a Saintess or not.

"

nThen your mission would most like to change from being one to nurturing one.

n

"That doesn't sound bad. Just tell me how to remove the holy element in my body.

"

nThat way is simple. Host, you just need to die under someone's hands. You cannot kill yourself. The elements in your vessel would only leave if you were killed. Getting killed means that the former blessing you received from this world would be gone. You would have nothing to do with the original plot once you died as Eirwen Night. That's the only solution.

n

"This... is quite hard. Who would dare to kill a Saintess candidate? Even that scheming bitch Bela didn't dare to directly get the original Eirwen Night killed in their previous life. She used the nobles and royalties of this world to force them punished him and dealt the death penalty on him.

"

nOf course, she can't. Once she killed an innocent person with her own hand her rights to the title of Saintess would be removed. A Saintess could never kill an innocent being as she would be the light itself.

n

"Is that so?

" murmured Eirwen Night as he sneaks a glimpse at the Duke standing not far from him. A sudden amused smile appeared on his face. Such a smile made the current him look alluring and breathtaking. Even System Yue and Duke Damian are stunned for a moment.

nHost your vessel adding up your original demeanor is making your current you so seductive that even just by smiling, it's hard for others to move away from their eyes on you.

nNow that you're a beautiful man wearing women's clothes it makes it harder for others to hold back thinking that this is your kink. By the way, same-sex marriage is normal in this world. Same as Polygamy. Please be careful. There are a lot of perverts in this world.

nEirwen retorted in his mind,

"No one would take you as mute if you don't **ing say a thing!

" he kept scolding this stupid yet straightforward system in his heart.

nBut host, Yue is just warning you~

n

"Shut up!

"

nMeanwhile, Duke Damian who was observing Eirwen Night in front of him kept his silence the whole time. He even noticed that the legs of the young man were slightly trembling. Clearly, this is a result of him jumping from such a high place.

nDuke Damian spoke,

"Did you hurt your legs?

" he asked.

nEirwen flinched from the sudden question and instantly tried to hide his leg. Duke Damian noticed his movement and his eyebrows lightly moved. Then he could only watch the duke come over and kneeled on one knee in front of him.

n

"I beg your pardon.

" the duke says as he gently places Eirwen's leg on the top of his knee and slowly removes the boots.

nThe duke removed both shoes and saw that the sole of Eirwen's feet was a bit swollen. It seems that the size of the boots didn't fit him well, adding up that he runs all over the back alley chasing the children who stole his pouch. It's normal for his feet to hurt. Seeing those cute toes curling in pain, Duke Damian didn't know what to do for a moment. Then he noticed the ice pixies looking at him from behind Eirwen's shoulders and even on the top of his head.

nWhat is that man doing?!

nWhy is he touching the lord's feet!?

nLook~ the lord's feet look red. Is he hurting?

nIt looks like it's swollen. Can we use ice to numb the pain?

nDuke Damian is staring at those chatty little pixies though he had seen some small fairies before, seeing ice elemental ones are rare.

n'It seems that the archmage had said it right. The ice spirit had indeed taken a liking to this young man.' The thoughts of the duke.

nAh~ he is looking here!

nCan that human see us?

nImpossible! Even that old man in the castle couldn't see through our appearance. He is the one with the most mana in this kingdom.

nWho are you calling old man? That child is younger than you by a decade.

nShut up~ don't reveal my age to the lord!

nChuckles~

nWhile Duke Damian is watching the ice pixies argue with themselves, they've suddenly heard a peal of laughter coming from above their heads. When both human and fairies look up, they see a charming face which almost causes them to be lovestruck. A laughing Eirwen Night is more attractive than when smiling. He looks like an immortal being showing his delight at this moment. Even the emotionless duke was stunned at this scene.

nDuke Damian's thoughts: 'He... is indeed too pleasing in the eyes.'

n
