The Fake Saint of a Reverse Harem Game - Chapter 66.1

“It’s a secret. How about you, Ares? Where are you going?”

“Ibiza.”

Valérez, who gave a short answer to my question, added as if making an excuse.

“I have some business to attend to. I’m not going there to have fun.”

I narrowed my eyes at his reaction, even with his hand held out.

‘What on earth is this island that makes thieves act like their feet are numb?’

Let’s click on help to see if it’s an entertainment district. The explanation was really [Ibiza Island: the center of Rodenheim’s social circle, called the Island of Delight. There is a constant flow of tourists due to its outstanding scenery.]

‘What? Didn’t he say he wasn’t going out to play?’

I can’t believe his lie was this bad considering he was the boss of the underworld…

I wanted to tease Ares right away, but I couldn’t let him know that I was receiving help from the system, so I just shrugged.

“Is it so. Ares is a man who is very busy with his many projects.”

Actually, it wasn’t my business whether he went to promiscuous parties or not. Valérez sighed as if relieved by my indifference, escorted me out to the deck and entered the captain’s cabin. The young captain soon entered the deck and bowed his head to me.

“Hello, lady. My name is Leon. I will take you safely to your destination.”

For a captain operating a small boat, his demeanor was quite smooth. I noted he was from the Duke of Toledo, not the Red House, and smiled calmly like a nobleman.

“My name is Edith. I’m sorry if there’s a delay because of me.”

“Virgin Island is an island located on the way to Ibiza Island anyway. Please don’t worry and enjoy the sea in peace.”

The captain, who seemed to have already been roughly informed by Ares about the situation, checked the island map and calm water. Then, he led us to the center of the deck, where the majestic statue of the goddess could be seen. Where the gigantic statue of the goddess casted her shadow was a light blue parasol decorated with delicate lace.

As the captain said, it was the right place to enjoy the sea. As I was staring at the cool sea stretching all the way to the horizon, someone tapped my shoulder.

“Why aren’t you sitting down?”

“The scenery was so beautiful that I forgot to sit down.”

I glanced at Valérez and opened my mouth, pretending not to see the emblem of the Duke of Toledo engraved on the parasol.

“I didn’t know that the Red House even owned a ship… It’s amazing, Ares.”

“What? Do you mean this much?”

I glanced at him scratching his handsome cheeks as if my praise was awkward. Toledo, which ruled the south, was a prestigious family famous for its navy that stretched all the way to the Western Strait. Just as I hid from him the fact that I was from the Marquis of Abina, he also hid from me the fact that he was a great nobleman.

‘If you think about it, it’s kind of weird. You lied to me too!’

I suppressed my momentary surge of resentment and stretched out my hand into the air. It didn’t matter who lied to me anyway. What I needed now was the confirmation of love, not the trust of Ares.

“Ares, it looks like it’s going to rain. The air is moist.”

I had just manipulated the weather around me with the holy power provided by Helper. I pointed to the dark clouds gathering around the ship with my eyes wide open.

“It’s really cloudy!”

What surprised me wasn’t the acting. Manipulating the weather was an ability used by the main character in <Experience! Life>, but this ability always amazed me whenever I used it.

“That’s strange. It seems like a dark cloud suddenly appeared?”

Observing the dark clouds with his sharp chin raised at my words, Valérez frowned in suspicion.

“I’ll talk to the captain and come back. I don’t even know if someone’s playing a trick.”

It’s useless if I wasn’t quick-witted. I sat down, holing on to the deck railing, and caught Valérez’s attention.

“Ahh!”

“My lady, are you okay?”

As he turned from the captain’s cabin, he came up to me in surprise. I leaned into his strong arms and answered softly.

“I suddenly feel dizzy. Sorry.”

As I move around in Valérez’s arms, I can feel him flinching.

“Can I just stay like this for a moment?”

“Uh, uh…”

At my request, Valérez forgot the existence of dark clouds and just stared at the ground. I took advantage of his distracted attention and began to manipulate the weather finely.

Well, in terms of control, it was limited to floating dark clouds on the huge boat owned by Ares.

‘I guess I’ll try to make it rain now.’
