The Saint's Magic Power Is Omnipotent (WN) Chapter 54

"Haaah ~~~~~~."

I holed myself in my room since morning and was experimenting, but I fell flat onto the writing desk and let out a big sigh since the results were just as I expected.

Even though I had predicted how this would turn out, it wasn't a favourable prediction.

To tell the truth, it was a prediction that I didn't want to make.

Yesterday, I had activated the 【Saint】technique at the place where the knights were stationed.

It was great that I could activate it.

It was surprising that it suddenly activated, but thanks to it, I was able to cure the knights' injuries with it.

I was glad that I found out the conditions to activate it since I didn't know what the activation conditions were at all until now thus preventing me from activating it.

I thought that it was good that I could activate it whenever I wanted.

I was likely very happy that this would lessen the stress of a certain Captain-sama.

The problem was the activation condition……

Why is the activation condition Captain-san!!!

I tried many things since morning.

Captain-san wasn't the only person I thought about when I activated the 【Saint】technique before.

I also thought about Jude, Director, the researchers and the knights I knew.

I tried to activate the technique while thinking about different people that I knew.

However, the magic in question wouldn't activate even if I thought about people other than Captain-san.

I was reluctant, but the last thing I did was think about Captain-san as I tried to activate it and……

I endured my embarra.s.sment as I thought about him and then I felt magic stirring from within me.

The magic would stop if I stopped to pray when I felt the slight movements.

It seemed that I could stop it at will as well.

To be honest, if I was alone in my room then I'd hit the desk and yell in a really loud voice.

Because, you know?

I have to think about Captain-san every time I want to use this technique, don't I?!

Isn't that torture!?

However, Marie-san and a few maids were in the room.

I couldn't cover my face with both hands and roll around on the floor either.

The only thing I could do in this situation was sigh.

"Sei-sama, why don't you take a break now?"

"Thank you very much. I'll do that."

A worried voice came from behind me when I was drooping my head down.

It was Marie-san.

When I looked up from the desk, I saw that Marie-san was smiling and that tea had already been prepared at the lounge suite.

Come to think of it, I've been so immersed in experiments since morning that I haven't eaten anything.

I'll take up her offer and have a break.

There were sandwiches and fruits on top of the table, as well as sweets for tea.

It was obvious that I've seen this food before. They were the same things I made when I was at the research inst.i.tute.

I glanced at Marie and she smiled, "Enjoy your food."

My stomach growled a little.

Which reminds me, I woke up this morning, got dressed and started my experiments straight away so I haven't had anything to eat.

Thinking it over carefully, I didn't have anything for dinner yesterday either.

Yesterday, I holed myself in my room as soon as I returned from the knights' station.

I usually try to eat three meals a day.

But, I didn't eat anything for dinner yesterday and I sat on the desk since morning with a frown on my face.

She was probably worried about me.

That was what I felt when I looked at the things on the table.

She probably thought that I would feel like eating something that I was used to eating.

I felt bad about it and put the sandwich into my mouth. I got hungry as soon as I did that.

The sandwich disappeared in an instant and then I noticed that the maids looked relieved when I reached for the sweets.

It wasn't just Marie-san, they were all worried about me.

I'm really, really sorry……

I took a sip of my tea when I finished eating and Marie-san informed me of the guests that visited while I holed myself up in my room.

The more I listened, the more I realised that I had made a lot of people worry and I felt ashamed.

I had returned to my room without visiting the distillation room, so even Corinnsan came to visit me.

And of course, Captain-san as well.

However, Marie-san saw what I looked like when I came back to my room and she decided to not inform me that they visited.

I was really thankful for her consideration.

I didn't mind seeing Corinnsan, but I couldn't meet Captain-san in that state.

I basically ran away from the knights' station after I activated the 【Saint】technique.

Even though Captain-san was calling out to me to stop, I ignored him.

It's Captain-san, so he's probably really worried about me.

But I didn't know how I should act when I meet him.

I thought he was really my type when I first met him.

And after seeing him a lot, I also realised that he was a good person.

But this was the first time that I was aware of this.

Would I be able to act as I always have around him the next time we meet?

I'm extremely anxious.

Even so, it's difficult to keep avoiding Captain-san.

I have to work (demon subjugations).

Yup, work, work.

It's not good to abandon my work.

If I think that it's work then I might not be overly conscious about it when I activate the 【Saint】technique.

I'm not too sure, but let's do it.

"Thanks for the meal."

"What are your plans for today?"

"I wanted to go to the distillation room."

"Certainly."

I headed to the distillation room after my meal.

It seemed that Corinnsan also visited my room yesterday.

She's probably worried about me so I should visit her.

There's also blessing.

I wasn't sure what blessing was but I knew that it was activated by the 【Saint】technique.

I can conduct many experiments from now on.

If my experiments go well, then I could obtain the herbs I want.

I got really excited thinking about the future.

First, I need to get more information about blessing and then I need to receive permission from Corinnsan to conduct experiments.

I headed towards the distillation room with those things in mind.

"Are you alright now?"

"Yes. I'm sorry for worrying you."

Corinnsan called out to me as soon as I entered the distillation room.

She really was worried after all.

She replied, "If you're fine then that's good," when I lowered my head.

Our greetings were rushed and she took me to the back room when I told her I had something to discuss with her.

I had said it in a small voice, but she understood my intentions.

I wanted to discuss blessing with her.

The contents will contain confidential information, so I wanted to avoid talking about it in a room full of people.

"You want to experiment with blessing?"

"Yes. First of all, I want to read the doc.u.ment again."

"What are you planning to do after you read the doc.u.ment?"

"I think I'll probably experiment with some medicinal herbs. I'd also like to borrow a flowerpot."

"A flowerpot?"

"If I suddenly experiment on the fields and fail then it'll be troublesome, wouldn't it?"

"Well, you're right. Okay, I'll get the things together."

"Thank you very much."

I decided to use a flowerpot for the blessing experiments at first.

It probably wouldn't be a problem if I activated the 【Saint】technique like I did at the Medicinal Herb Research Inst.i.tute, but I'm being cautious.

Corinnsan said that she would have everything ready by the afternoon, so I decided to review the doc.u.ments in the meantime.
