I Will Smash Everything With My Passive Skills

033. Cecilia De Frey

“Huh.”

Cecilia, who went to school singing her humming song, started the day with the most light steps.

It is today that the temporary school closure order issued due to the previous incident will be lifted. Thanks to that, Cecilia was walking toward the S-Class with her joyful heart.

“Hello, saintess.”

“Nice to meet you. Oh my, I think Matilda has gotten prettier today?”

“Ho-ho! Even the saintess!”

Cecilia’s way to school is roughly as follows.

When her students, who always recognized her, approach her and greet her kindly, Cecilia, who remembers each and every one of her precious relationships, responds with pleasure.

She may not have to do it, but Cecilia, who she thinks everyone has a precious relationship with, couldn’t push them away.

“By the way…… A ring I’ve never seen before is on her finger?”

Matilda’s eyes twinkled as she greeted her first.

The silver ring on Cecilia’s finger that she hadn’t seen in a long time seemed to catch her eye.

“Yes, I got it by accident.”

Cecilia smiles at her bash and raises her finger.

Unfortunately, it was impossible to put her ring on the ring finger of her left hand as she wished. She’s still not even close to him and she…… It was thanks to Arwen and Maria’s fierce opposition.

Cecilia eventually agreed to put her ring on the little finger of her left hand.

Befitting a ring of great value, it automatically adjusted its size. She felt a bit regretful, but at this point she was fine. She even thought to herself.

“The ring finger on the left hand signifies the depth of love.”

“Isn’t it?”

“Then saintess, do you know what the ring on your little finger means?”

Cecilia mumbled her mouth at her bold student’s question.

There’s no way you wouldn’t know that. She is in fact Cecilia, who has put a ring on her little finger, hoping that Veris will notice it in her heart.

“What is it? I don’t know.”

However, Cecilia was more shy than she seemed to admit. Like her usual saintess, Cecilia with a benevolent smile placed an iron plate on her face and asked.

“Whoops, it means to bless the beginning of a new relationship.”

“I see… ….”

Even though she knew it anyway, it felt different to hear it from someone else’s mouth. Thinking so, Cecilia slowly stroked her ring.

Her figure was as beautiful as a watercolor painting and exudes a sacred atmosphere. Matilda was emitting an even more intense glow in her eyes.

‘My God, my God!’

Matilda is just a girl who is hard to say that she has a lot of experience with men, even as a joke, but she is quite quick-witted.

Look at Cecilia, the saint of love now. Doesn’t that benevolent and beautiful saint who bestows God’s blessings on all life on the continent have a face similar to the girl she fell in love with?

‘This is for sure.’

There is a man the saintess envisions. So Matilda began to spin her head rapidly.

‘Gunther One day? Or is it someone else? Are you a priest?’

There were no men around Saint Cecilia.

Rumor has it that he conducted a dungeon exploration a few days ago at the request of the dean.

‘A person named Veris is also famous.’

Matilda immediately remembered a person.

Even though he was already in Class B, his strength far exceeded that level. He was a known and unique man.

In addition to that, it was said that his appearance was more beautiful than the legendary dragon polymorphed into a human form, so there was a certain probability that he was the man the saintess envisioned.

“Saint… ….”

“Yes? Why do you look at me like that?”

Matilda looked at Cecilia with narrow eyes.

The expression is full of hiding something. However, Matilda is a girl who fully understands and knows the girl’s tender sensitivity. She knew that now she wasn’t stone fast, she had to go back a little bit.

“There is something I would like to ask you for advice on.”

“Hmm…… What kind of consultation is this? Don’t worry and lean on me.”

Matilda flinched at Cecilia’s benevolent answer.

She wanted to test Cecilia in her heart, but her pure answer stabbed Matilda’s conscience.

But Matilda shook her head. It’s spilled water anyway, it’s a work that has begun. The merchant’s blood flowing in her body did not stand still when she retreated.

“Actually, there is someone I like lately.”

“Oh, oh, oh! What should I do with this? Should we celebrate? Or should I be concerned?”

Cecilia jumps in place at Matilda’s full confession of lies.

It was a lovely figure overflowing with her cuteness, but Matilda continued her words without expressing it.

“I don’t know if that person knows my heart or not. Even though he is always by my side, he doesn’t speak easily.”

“I can’t… ….”

Cecilia’s face quickly becomes depressed because of Matilda’s troubles, not Matilda’s. It was obvious that the usual Cecilia would react like that, so Matilda continued her work.

“I am afraid that if I honestly confess my feelings, that person will leave. You don’t even know what to do at a time like this, right?”

Matilda played a girl in love who was shamelessly mortified.

It is the image of a girl who is so sad that even thinking about it herself makes her heart ache. Seeing it as she expected, Cecilia was looking at Matilda with green eyes full of tears.

“Don’t worry.”

“…… Yes?”

Cecilia quietly raised her hand and placed it on her Matilda’s head.

Matilda was taller because she was originally short, but strangely, Matilda felt that she was hugging her and comforting her.

“Matilda is a charming woman. She doesn’t know who he is, but I wouldn’t dare give her advice to her Matilda heart.”

Matilda trembled at Cecilia’s soft voice.

She was a girl with a terrifyingly pure and beautiful heart. She was stroking her Matilda by moving her hand on her head.

“However, one thing I can say for sure is that Matilda’s heart will always receive her reward. So don’t worry about anything.”

“… ….”

Matilda stared blankly at her.

No matter how you think about it, this saintess was a very kind person even when she was kind.

* * *

Class has started.

Today was about mana science, but unfortunately all the students in this S class have a very high understanding of mana.

So, during the boring class, Matilda turned her stretched eyes to Cecilia.

Cecilia, sitting diagonally in front of her, stroked her ring like someone who was mad at her, then she suddenly buried her face in her arm alone, or, imagining something, removed her arm. Was wrapped around the body.

‘I’m sure.’

Earlier, I was distracted by Cecilia’s voice that sounded like a saint, but she still hadn’t let go of that suspicion.

If you see that scene, even a person with a big eye trouble will know that Cecilia likes someone.

“How ugly.”

“hehehe.”

Then it was Arwen who was sitting next to her who bruised Cecilia. Elf test. According to her, there were rumors that she had gained her elemental powers, but whatever she was, the important thing now was the fact that she was Cecilia’s best friend.

No, in a way, she had an ambiguous side to even being best friends. I heard that they were living together, but sometimes the two of them looked more like rivals than friends.

‘Hmm.’

Matilda turned her eyes to Arwen’s back.

It’s a terrifyingly beautiful face. Cecilia was, of course, as beautiful as she was, so the two of them always had the power to attract everyone’s attention.

‘I’ll have to talk to you again after the lecture.’

Matilda thought so, and she turned to the professor who was lecturing.

She didn’t know that Arwen, who was sitting next to Cecilia, had a ring on her finger that looked just like hers.

* * *

“Saintess.”

“Huh? Matilda. Haven’t you gone to the dormitory yet?”

“Yes. I have something to ask you.”

Matilda answered her Cecilia’s innocent question.

It was Matilda who persistently approached Cecilia during breaks between lectures. But each time she didn’t get much income, Matilda eventually decided to increase her odds.

“What is love?”

“…… Love?”

But unlike before, there was a noticeable income this time.

Look at that girl who lights up her face just by uttering the word. She looks like that, and it was hard to believe that she had no one in her heart.

“Yes. A thought occurred to me during the lecture. There is a difference between loving someone and liking someone like heaven and earth.”

“Ugh…… Yes?”

“Have you ever loved someone?”

“Go, suddenly? Why?”

Matilda exclaimed inwardly.

It was thanks to her good impression that the girl’s face turned red like a ripe apple. Is that all she is? Even her ears were dyed red, so the answer was already out.

“Love… ….”

At the sight of her girlish muttering in her daze, Matilda looked at her wordlessly.

Cecilia, who had been pondering for a long time, was twiddling with her fingers as she munched her mouth.

“Love is a good thing.”

“…… Yes?”

This is an unexpected answer.

“You know Matilda, too, right? She is happy just thinking of him, and she wants to always be by his side. So love has to be good. She tries not to fall short compared to that person and moves forward to be with him, so love is definitely a good feeling.”

This is a completely different answer from your own question. But it seemed like she knew a little bit about what she meant, so Matilda couldn’t help but put on her blank face.

‘I’m sorry.’

A feeling of guilt weighed on Matilda that was too heavy for her to express in words.

She wondered what kind of prank she was trying to play on this loving saintess.

It was something that made her reflect on herself in her heart.

“Huh? Berry’s! Matilda, see you tomorrow then!”

Cecilia runs dodo to a man walking slowly in the distance.

She couldn’t get a clear answer out of her mouth, but she couldn’t understand what it meant.

* * *

“Are you going to die now? Why are you coming back so late?”

“Marie was annoying. I’m sorry to just throw it away.”

“Chii, that person is really too much.”

“Then you return late too, so what?”

Cecilia smiled bashfully at Veris’s caring tone as usual.

Although he gave off a cold impression, he is a terribly caring person at heart.

“hehehe.”

Cecilia, walking in step with Veris, suddenly looked up at her sky.

Love, love.

When did you start to be conscious of that feeling?

It must have been a long time ago. It was a feeling that had tormented her countless times from the moment when this man who quietly walked beside her saved her past self, until now.

“Whoa.”

“Why?”

“No!”

Cecilia gave a bright answer to Berry’s concern for herself.

It was difficult to turn away from this emotion that she had now. The hot lumpy whirlpool in her heart did not calm down the more she was with him, but brought a bigger storm.

“Tell me if you have any concerns.”

“…… Yes.”

Cecilia spoke softly at his trustworthy tone.

The sudden illness of hers seemed to require a lot of time to be completely cured.
