Chapter 51 Mentoring (2)

“You are so beautiful today, Madam!” Talin exclaimed loudly when he finished preparing and opened the door to his office.

Lily smiled awkwardly today as well behind the translucent black veil that covered her face. “I don’t think I deserve to hear that, Sir Talin.”

From her head to toe, she was covered with a dark green dress and a robe. It was almost like a funeral dress.

Talin shook his head resolutely. “You look like a goddess fit to be on famous paintings, or on the murals of the temple. Especially with your shiny hair, which stands out more thanks to the darker-colored outfit…”

“Yes, t-thank you. I’ve heard enough.” Lily hurriedly waved her hand.

Talin looked very sad today.

Lily was quick to change the conversation. “I’m going to the chapel… Can you help guide me?”

“I’ll take care of you, Madam!”

After Talin saluted, they crossed the Templar corridor side by side.

The guards saluted in amazement every time, but Lily only thought it was because of Talin.

As she left the Knights Templar building, the cold winter air mixed with her breath. An ice-cold feeling pierced the thin veil, brushing against her skin.

Talin stopped walking after walking for a long time, savoring the view of wintry mountains. “This is the chapel in the castle.”

“…Is this the building?”

“Yes. This remains because Priest Ivan appealed.”

There were no domed ceilings, bell towers, and spires in the chapel of Winter Castle.

It was embarrassing that the plain, whitewashed square building had any purpose, let alone one for worship.

“I’ll open the door for you. Madam.”

The inside of the chapel was far worse than it looked from the outside.

The window on the wall was the size of a palm, and the altar was on ground level.

If the priests of the Conde Sect saw it, they would surely accuse Vlad of blasphemy.

The anxiety she felt in the office grew. She felt like a true sinner.

Lily slowly approached the priest’s waiting room, alert as a cat that had fallen into an unfamiliar place. About to knock on the waiting room’s door, she stopped.

Conversation was leaking through the slightly twisted doorposts.

“I know I’m risking my life to say this. But really. I hate this! This is the first time I’ve said something like this, right?”

Priest Ivan was shouting.

“In the first place, you caused the problem so you should fix it. And even if you beat me to death, I’ll never… cough!”

What the hell is going on?

No matter how she thought about it, it didn’t seem like a normal conversation.

“Argh, it’s so… that… ugh, I-I’ll do it. I’ll do it. I’ll seriously do it if you let go of me… cough!”

Lily was restless at the choking sounds.

He needs help right away…

Ivan’s fierce voice was heard again as if he had been released. “Kheuk… Thanks… Did you think that’s true? I’ll tell Madam everything! Haha!”

She groaned at the sound of a wall shattering and stepped back from the door. It was so loud that she wondered if the building was about to collapse.

“Argh! I’m sorry. I’m kidding. I’m kidding. Please save me. I’m sorry… Argh!”

The door shattered at the last minute, and Ivan slammed into Lily’s feet.

“Kya!” Lily let out a small scream at the flying debris and crouched down.

She opened her eyes quickly and saw Ivan lying on the floor.

Seeing that there was no movement, it looked like he was dead, or at least unconscious.

“Priest. Are you okay…?!”

The area around Ivan was in a mess due to the fragments of the door.

His hair was a mess and his uniform was torn, revealing pale skin.

However, what caught her eye more than all of that was the long cylinder rolling down from Ivan’s slender hands.

Lily’s eyes widened at the object that stopped against her dress.

That was it.

The thing that Lily and her husband used last night.

A phallus made of ivory. Even the specific parts were delicately carved.

Lily’s face quickly reddened.

Seeing it with her own eyes was different from ignorantly using it.

It looked… surprisingly hideous.

“This, why, Priest…” Lily didn’t even dare to get rid of the vulgar thing, so she took a step back.

Ivan raised his head as if he had come to his senses. “Oh, Madam…? Since when have you been…?” His face contorted when he saw it rolling along as Lily stepped back.

He hurriedly got up. “Wait a minute. Madam. Listen. I make it, but I don’t use it myself, but as part of couple counseling…”

Ivan’s frightened voice never entered Lily’s ears.

Lily was in shock for the second time. It was because a huge man coming out of the priest’s room held a piece of the priest’s robe in his hand.

It was him.

The mysterious, handsome knight who walked along the snow-covered wall with her.

As he strode out and found Lily, his eyes widened and hardened like ice. His clothes were also ripped open.

Lily looked at him, who was holding part of his priest’s robe, then Ivan, then the monstrous object at her feet.

Two men had their clothes ripped in a secret room. That thing has a definite use…

A lightning bolt of realization hit her.

Lily took a deep breath and covered her mouth with both hands.

“The two of you… are like that…”

It was often said that all handsome and perfect men were homosexuals.

Ivan’s looks weren’t comparable to the knight frozen in the priest’s office, but Ivan actually looks pretty decent.

It was a well-known rumor that sodomy was secretly prevalent among priests.

Among those rumors, the combination of knights and priests was so common that it was not even special.

That’s why…

“Madam… no. No.”

Lily looked back at them one after another, and took a step back. “I-I… respect that. I mean it…”

“It’s not like that!”

“Have a good time!” Lily turned and ran away.

Ivan followed her, screaming, “That’s your… No, he’s a married man, Madam!”

His desperate cry only increased the pace of Lily’s escape.
