hem, so I opened my mouth.

“I’m sorry, but I think you have the wrong person.”

But right away, Erica-san shook her head.
Her soft silver hair swayed and her sweet scent tickled my nose.

“Um, I’m stupid, clumsy, and bad at magic, but I’ve got really good eyesight.”

“….”

“I can see a person’s magical attributes in their color.
Only this house was covered in a very beautiful silver color.
Of course, you yourself too.
It is the color of a Holy Wizard, just like me.”

I was surprised that Erica-san had such an ability. 

It seemed I was wrong to have secretly cast a blessing spell around the house, just in case.

I knew I couldn’t get away with it anymore.
Then, just as I was wondering how to make an excuse, Erica-san scooped up both my hands in her own.

“You are a descendant of a past saintess, aren’t you?”

“Eh?”

“I read it in a book.
I heard that there are descendants of past saintesses from the past in this country and that they can use holy magic!”

“….
Ah.”

I was the 14th saintess, and I heard that there were other saintess summoned from another world even before me.

I heard that some of them suddenly disappeared after fulfilling their roles, while others remained in the country, got married, and lived normal lives.
Some of their descendants were said to have been able to use holy magic, which was very rare.

People would never have dreamed that the previous saintesses had inadvertently mixed in with them, and they must have guessed that they were descendants of those saints.

I smiled as I knew I had to do all I could to get on board with the gratifying misunderstanding.

“….
Yes, as a matter of fact, I am.
I happened to be in the forest last night to gather medicinal herbs, and I saw a demon approaching the two of you.”

“I knew it! Thank you very much for your help.
I hope you don’t mind that I keep saying thank you.”

With that, she offered me the basket she was carrying.
It was filled with delicious-looking fruits and lovely flowers.

Rather than being overly reserved, it would be better to accept the basket and be done with it.
I thanked her and accepted the basket from Erica-san.

She was so beautiful when seen up close like this, and even just talking to her a little, I could tell that she was a good girl.

As I was thinking that I hope she would continue to do her best, Theo, who had been silent for a long time, said, “Hey,” and looked at me.

“Your name is Nina, right?”

“….
Y-Yes, it is….”

At the same time, I held my head inwardly.
I had planned to live in this village for the rest of my life, so I didn’t use a pseudonym and lived under the same name as it was.

I didn’t expect this to happen, but I still didn’t want to live without my name.

As expected, I wondered if I was seen as suspicious.
