Chapter 47: 47
T/N: Today I’d like to thank my Cookie Donor, Nathan . Thank you so much!! The Dairy Queen was lovely ^^
Gilles must have tired himself out with all that crying since he fell fast asleep soon after .
“Alicia . Thank you,” Grandpa Will says and like always, pats my head gently .
It is quite nice, but… I haven’t done anything deserving of thanks?
“I only said cruel things to him though . ”
“But it was the truth . ”
“I doubt you’d see a saintess ever saying those sorts of things . ”
Grandpa Will laughs, the corners of his eyes crinkling in mirth .
“And I doubt the words of a saintess would have been able to reach Gilles . ”

Then, does that mean that I beat Liz-san?
… . . Wait, stop that . It’s just silly, imagining this was actually some sort of contest between us .
My eyes drop to the dirt-stained ground, feeling a little sheepish over my childishness .
“…Oh! Right! I can use purification and cleaning magic now . ”
Grandpa Will stiffens .
Even though his eyes remain calm, I can tell that he’s surprised from the set of his shoulders .
Oh… . I wonder if it’s considered rude to talk about magic in front of someone who isn’t able to use it .

But then again, I wouldn’t have expected Grandpa Will to be someone to get offended over something like that ……
“Alicia, how old did you say you were now?”
“I’m ten . ”

Why did he suddenly ask about my age?
Grandpa Will cups his chin in his hands, his expression turning complicated . Just what could he be thinking about?
“Grandpa Will? What’s wrong?”
“Ah . It’s nothing . That’s right! Alicia, would you mind casting that magic for me now?”
“Sure . What should I cast it on?”

“I wonder… could you clean this whole room?”
“I can try . ”
I imagine every inch of the room becoming immaculately clean .
Usually I close my eyes when I’m doing this, but there’s actually no reason I can’t leave them open, right?
Honestly, I just like closing them because I’m scared that the spell will fail and nothing will happen . But I’m actually quite curious what it looks like when I’m casting a spell . So this time I keep my eyes open as I snap my fingers and I imagine all traces of dust and filth being removed from the room as I do .

The moment my fingers connect in that crisp snap, the room is instantly enveloped in a sort of sparkling aura .
How beautiful . The whole room is glittering so wonderfully……

The aura spans the entire room, encompassing the chairs, the desk, and even the bed in its sparkly glow . And as quick as it came, it vanishes .
So I’m actually capable of doing this sort of thing… . . They’re my own abilities, but even I feel a tinge of surprise . But since it’s something of this magnitude, I should be able to toot my own horn at least a little bit, right? I mean, I can hardly recognize this place now . It’s like the room that I’ve been visiting all these years was a lie .
From the stained and yellowed window to the thick layer of dust covering the ceiling and surfaces to the unbearably grimy bed, everything now looks sparkly clean .
And to think that by merely cleaning the room, even the air in here feels completely different . Instead of the putrid, stagnate stench that I’ve grown accustomed to, it’s now amazingly fresh and breathable .
“The air has been purified . And even the dark atmosphere feels lighter and brighter now . How incredible,” Grandpa Will praises and I glow under the compliment .
I feel like I’m going to have a good dream tonight .
T/N: Okay, Alicia . Now all you have to do is find a reason why a villainess would purify a whole village! Maybe… . the smell and dirt are beneath you! You will purify it because a villainess of your stature shouldn’t have to frequent a disgusting place like this, right? XD Who needs to wait for a saintess that is already this miserably late!?
