Lord Baby Runs A Romance Fantasy With Cash [EN]: Chapter 275

Baby Runs the Romance Novel with Cash – Episode 275

☆ Chapter 275 ☆

‘…Ignorant fools. What’s so great about that—’

It was then.

With auspicious clouds, iridescent light poured down from the sky.

As if even the heavens acknowledged and blessed the birth of a true Saintess.

And through the clouds, a divine beast revealed its majestic yet graceful form.

People looked up at the fantastical sight.

“Oh! It’s really the divine beast!”

“To think I’d see the divine beast in my lifetime!”

“Long live the divine beast!”

The massive body moved lightly without a sound and landed in front of Ruatisha.

As Ruatisha reached out her hand, the divine beast lowered its head and pressed its forehead against her hand.

A perfect communion with the divine beast.

The mysterious and awe-inspiring sight left people speechless for a moment.

Only after the divine beast circled Ruatisha and disappeared did people belatedly exclaim in admiration.

“Did you, did you see that?”

“Oh my god, the divine beast is so devoted!”

“She’s really the true Saintess!”

“She’s on a different level from that fake, isn’t she?”

Listening to the people’s voices reacting even more explosively than before, the woman pulled her hood down deeper.

She was disgusted by the people who sent greater cheers to Ruatisha just because a divine beast had appeared.

‘How blind can they be.’

But what disgusted her even more was Ruatisha, who was smiling as if receiving those cheers was only natural.

‘That hypocritical bitch.’

From the start, all of this didn’t belong to Ruatisha.

‘No, even if it really belonged to Ruatisha, it doesn’t matter.’

She turned her head away from Ruatisha.

The deeply pulled-down hood cast a dark shadow over her face.

Within that shadow, greenish eyes gleamed cruelly.

‘I’ll break you.’

[Congratulations!]

[You have been officially recognized as the Saintess and have even held an inauguration ceremony!]

[Now, not only will your name be recorded in the temple’s records, but also in history books as the Saintess!]

[The Saintess inauguration ceremony has been successfully completed!]

[Your name echoes throughout the Parmanas Square and the entire nation!]

[Long live the birth of the true Saintess who defeated the fake Saintess!]

[You have changed the landscape of Saintess inauguration ceremonies with the appearance of the divine beast Nike!]

[First Title Acquired!]

[Reader, you have turned the Saintess inauguration ceremony upside down!]

[Your influence in the empire greatly increases!]

[Influence hits an all-time high?! Let’s spin the 50,000 Cash Gacha Ticket and max out your 보유 [possession] Cash as well!]

‘What?’

I doubted my eyes.

‘Co, compose myself.’

Taking a slow, deep breath, I counted the numbers from the back.

‘One, ten, hundred, thousand… ten thousand! Is it really ten thousand?’

A 50,000 Cash Gacha Ticket!

This was a golden gacha ticket I didn’t even know existed.

‘Well, I guess I deserve this much since I became the Saintess.’

Even as I thought that, the corners of my lips kept rising.

“Your Holiness Saintess.”

Only after hearing the voices of the priests calling me did I try to manage my expression.

Thinking of the romance fantasy Saintess sisters, I turned around with as much dignity as I could muster, and the priests bowed deeply to me.

“Please forgive our mistake for not recognizing Your Holiness Saintess.”

“From now on, we will serve Your Holiness Saintess with all our hearts.”

“We may not be trustworthy, but please give us a chance….”

Hmm.

In fact, the priests did promote Liriel as the Saintess and took her side, but they didn’t really do anything.

It was all Liriel’s doing that she devised insidious schemes and trapped me.

In a way, the priests may have just been trying to do their jobs diligently.

But.

“Yes, you were wrong. Very wrong.”

What if Liriel had continued to act as the Saintess without any problems?

It wouldn’t have ended with just me being wronged.

Liriel was the proxy of Kiyas Edel.

“I’m sorry, but I’m not a benevolent and kind Saintess who forgives everything.”

“…We are sorry. If you ask us to take responsibility and step down from our positions—”

“If you’re going to take responsibility, you have to do it properly. Stepping down is just running away, isn’t it?”

“Yes?”

Where are you trying to run off to?

The temple is already suffering from a shortage of manpower because its power is weak.

“From what I see, we need to reorganize the structure of the priesthood a bit. I knew it was a conservative group, but it’s too much to follow the manuals from hundreds of years ago. Tradition is good, but we also need to keep up with the current trends.”

“Yes?”

“You can work overtime starting today, right?”

“Oh, but today is the Saintess inauguration ceremony?”

“I’m the one being inaugurated, not the priests, right?”

“Th, that’s right……. But we have to assist Your Holiness throughout the inauguration ceremony….”

“It’s okay. Does it matter if we don’t receive some ceremonial procedures? Work is more important.”

Only the party is left now, and frankly, it’s annoying to have the priests hanging around.

“If that is Your Holiness’s will….”

Gotcha, you rascal.

I smiled benevolently like a Saintess.

The priests didn’t know why I was smiling and just followed along with an ehehe laugh.

“I hope that smile lasts long.”

“Yes?”

The smiles disappeared from the priests’ faces.

Don’t worry.

You won’t die from staying up a few nights, you won’t die.

You have to pay the price properly, right?

* * *

The priests blankly stared at Ruatisha’s back as she headed out to Parmanas Hall.

Ruatisha said she would convene a general assembly tomorrow.

And that preparations for the agenda of the meeting must be made.

It seems that staying up all night won’t be enough.

“To think she would bring up work matters right on the day of her inauguration ceremony.”

Usually, it was common to enjoy the joy of being congratulated from various places as the newly inaugurated Saintess, not only for today but for several days.

What about Liriel?

She made a fuss saying that she had ruined the inauguration ceremony.

She said that the more her fame as a Saintess increased, the more the temple could be revived.

That wasn’t wrong.

But in the end, she was only interested in her personal glory and never showed any sense of responsibility as a Saintess.

But Ruatisha told them to omit even the existing ceremonial procedures for the sake of the greater good(?).

She told them to work during that time.

“She’s definitely too different from the fake.”

“As expected of Duchess Paeraton. There’s a reason why she left so many achievements from a young age.”

“Even the water management project is still ongoing, right? Frankly, is the amount of work we have to do as much as Your Holiness Saintess’s workload?”

“Your Holiness Saintess said that she is not a benevolent and kind Saintess, but in my opinion, she is the most Saintess-like person.”

“Should we say that she is the most needed person in the current temple?”

The Pope, who had been quietly listening to the high priests’ words, nodded.

“It seems that a new breeze will blow in the temple. A very pleasant breeze at that.”

There was one thing Ruatisha overlooked.

There were people in the world like Baron Dier who felt joy the more they were given work to do.

And the priests were originally somewhat crazy people.

If they were in their right minds, they wouldn’t whip themselves and go into asceticism, saying they would follow the will of a god who doesn’t even respond, would they?

As a result, the priesthood was a group of people like Baron Dier.

In other words, a group of perverts.

* * *

After giving the priests a 벌 [punishment]—no, a lot of work, I went out to Parmanas Hall and was greeted by many people.

“Lulu.”

“Dad!”

“You were great today.”

“You were great today too, Dad.”

“I’m proud to be your grandfather, Saintess.”

“Oh, Grandpa.”

“My sister, when did you grow up so much?”

“Well, she’s still a fluffball I have to protect.”

“My youngest…….”

Are my brothers’ eyes red? Did they cry?

Geez, how are they going to handle my wedding?

‘Oh my! Wedding! What am I even saying!’

Feeling embarrassed for no reason, I jumped around and looked around.

In front of the altar where the light was pouring down, Sid stood smiling.

Is it that when beauty reaches its peak, it looks sacred?

He looked like a saint in a sacred painting.

I approached Sid as if possessed.

“……That playboy again.”

I heard a sound of grinding teeth from behind, but let’s ignore it.

“My Saintess.”

Sid took my hand and kissed it politely.

I felt ticklish at the tips of my toes for no reason.

“My savior. I wanted to be the only one who knew, but now everyone knows.”

“What is it?”

It’s really cheesy, but it sounds cool when Sid says it.

It’s not just a filter, it’s real.

It was the moment Sid pulled me close by the waist.

“Well, it’s nice to see, but. Don’t forget that everyone is watching you, right?”

When I turned around, Claudia was smiling.

“Isn’t today Your Holiness’s Saintess inauguration ceremony?”

“Ugh…….”

I momentarily forgot this situation because of Sid’s charm offensive.

I could see noble ladies glancing this way from afar.

The clown that was slightly visible above the fan was soaring towards the sky [referring to the makeup smearing from excitement/embarrassment].

I quickly let go of Sid’s hand.

Sid looked at me with dissatisfied eyes, but I firmly shook my head.

“No way.”

“Why?”

“I keep forgetting reality when I’m with you.”

Stop.

Sid stopped moving.

The next moment, Sid covered his eyes with one hand and groaned as if moaning.

“Ah, seriously, you—”

Sid’s ears were bright red.

I felt embarrassed for no reason, so I grabbed Claudia’s hand and left the spot as if running away.

I tried to ignore Claudia’s expression with her philtrum stretched out as she looked at me.

“Let’s, let’s go to Tiriel.”

“Hmm, okay.”

No, I wish you wouldn’t look at me like that.

Tiriel and Jasmine were visible among the ladies who were gathered like clouds over there.

Tiriel had only just recovered, but she came out to see my inauguration ceremony on purpose.

It must have taken a lot of courage to come out in front of people.

My heart ached.

I was approaching that way with Claudia—.

“Ah, Kain-nim [Kain-sama, a respectful title].”

“Please look this way too, Kain-nim.”

“Haa…….”

I know why the ladies are gathered like clouds.

Kain was in the middle of that cloud.

The ladies were looking at Kain with hazy eyes full of hearts.

“Hehe, don’t rush. My cute kittens.”

Chills.

Goosebumps rose.

‘Is he crazy?!’

I approached Kain and slapped him.

Kain turned around and looked at me with a languid smile as if it didn’t hurt.

“Are you sulking? Because I’m playing with other women?”

Wow, this is serious, isn’t it?

“Don’t you need to go to the hospital? What’s wrong with your head? Or will you come to your senses if I beat you up?”

“……You’re saying jokes too seriously.”

“I’m serious.”

“…….”

Okay, it’s quiet now.

But Tiriel and Jasmine were still looking at Kain with hazy faces.

The other ladies were the same.

I grabbed Kain and dragged him away.

“Don’t flirt with my friends.”

“I’m not flirting, I’m just being myself.”

Kain pointed to Claudia with his chin.

When I turned around, Claudia was also looking at Kain with a slightly flushed face.

‘No, really?’

“Humans are destined to be fascinated by demons.”

Kain whispered in my ear so that no one else could hear, and cupped my cheek.

“That’s why you’re special.”

“I’m just picky.”

I said in a disgruntled voice and roughly shook off Kain’s hand.

“Hmm, it still doesn’t work. It’s amazing.”

Kain narrowed his eyes and stared at me.

I could see his pupils narrowing vertically for a moment.

“I want to see you fascinated by me, but I also hope you’ll always be like this. I wonder why.”

“……Multiple personality?”

I took a step back from Kain.

Kain just chuckled and didn’t follow me any further.

“Don’t forget the promise you made to me.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t do anything that will harm humans.”

I wasn’t that confident in his leisurely smiling face, but I decided to stop here.

“Tiriel! Jasmine!”

At my call, the two of them looked at me in surprise as if they had woken up from a dream.

“Lulu! You were really cool today!”

“Thank you. It’s good to see you like this. It’s been a while since the three of us got together.”

“I know.”

We chattered for a while, then stopped talking when we saw the nobles hovering around to talk to me, and promised to meet again next time.

At that time, I saw a very unfamiliar person in my sight.

A long blonde haired…….

“……!”
