Brush, brush. The end of the pegasi brushing mission was much easier and more fun than expected. I stretched out my body.
“Keugh… Done. I finished brushing!”
Ding!
[Quest: Combing Pegasi completed.]
▸ Reward: Proceed to the next task
Purr! The pegasi walked leisurely around me and kept making a pleasant sound. I didn’t know if it was an illusion, but their furs were shiner than before I brushed them.
“Delios is late.”
He’ll move quickly and give me the next mission. I can’t even get out of this ranch island by myself! Shall I escape using the pegasus?
Sitting on the grass, it was about time that I began to imagine briefly what I would receive for my next task. I could hear the sound of stepping on the grass. As I turned my head, I saw a female angel with long reddish brown hair approaching.
Her eyes widened as she looked at the pegasi. “Pegasus doesn’t follow this well unless they’re a noble being like an archangel. That’s amazing.”
“Is that so?”
She was wearing clothes similar to mine, only the skirt went down her calves. She must be a mid-level angel. It seemed like she was the manager of this ranch. The woman looked like she was in her 40s and had a slightly stoic look. However, I could feel that there was some warmth in her gaze towards me.
“I was told that your name was Theresa. Is that right?”
“Yes, it is.”
The woman smiled. “You were the low-level angel who entered the central headquarters.”
Rumors spread as quickly in this place as they do in human society.
“This is not a place to come from the central headquarters for work support. I guess you’re being bullied, right?”
“Well… a little bit?”
It wasn’t wrong, so when I affirmed it, the woman burst into laughter.
“Would you like to have a cup of tea in the management office? No angel would want to bother you.”
I checked the sky. Since I couldn’t see Delios approaching anywhere, I nodded. We went into the management room together.
“My name is Violleta.”
Violleta wasn’t a character created by our team. That’s why I felt strangely curious. Angels don’t smile easily, but this angel smiles easily. She’s good at expressing her emotions, and it looks natural, just like a human being’s.
She was an angel with a fairly different atmosphere among the arrogant angels. In addition, the maintenance of the office had a cozy atmosphere and smelled nice as there were magic plants being dried.
Violleta explained as I stared at the magical plants with a blank stare. “I’m the only angel who uses this management room. So I can pursue my hobby freely.”
This angel was definitely unique.
“That’s a great hobby.”
Violleta smiled lightly and pointed to the chair as if offering a seat. Then, she began to pull out her tools to serve tea. “This is my first time hearing it. Everyone says it’s not productive and that it’s useless.”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Rofan-Addicted Young Lady’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Angels are so blunt that it’s almost rude. It’s to the point that I don’t think they’re a sacred being.]
It was an accurate appreciation. Angels had a religious belief that they were a very superior race, but when I looked at them as I was the one who created that setting, they just seemed a bit out of touch.
Pour. The tea brewed quickly and gave off a nice scent. Even though I have no knowledge of tea at all, I was able to feel that this tea was quite good. “It smells god.”
“That’s a relief. Even picky pegasus love this scent.”
Although Violleta was only a mid-level angel, she said that she was taking care of pegasi without difficulty with her wisdom using magical plants.
As I sipped tea well, Violleta smiled happily. “I think I’ve never seen an angel as cute as you.”
“Cough—!”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Born From Theresa’s Heart’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[The reward medallion will be given to Violleta.]
I made a shy expression as I wiped my wet mouth with the handkerchief that Violleta gave me.
Violleta chuckled. “You’re weak at compliments, aren’t you?”
“That’s… Maybe.”
To be precise, it wasn’t that I was weak to compliments, but I wasn’t immune to being called cute.
While I was scratching my eyebrows awkwardly, the door to the management office suddenly burst open. Is it Delios? As soon as I saw the angel coming in, I jolted up from my seat. Zakari?!
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘ Clyde’s in-law’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Was he an angel disguised as Clyde’s aide? Looking at him like this, he’s definitely powerful. Tremble, tremble.]
Of course he’s powerful. Because he’s the commander of the army.
Violleta was taken aback by the sudden appearance of one of the most powerful figures in the world and stood up to follow me.
“Greetings Lord Zakari.”
Zakari looked at me after with a machine-like look. I didn’t have a good feeling about it.
“Are you the low-level angel Theresa?”
“Yes…?”
Shrek! Zakari unfolded the golden baton in his hand as soon as I answered. “A report has been received that an angel subject to disposal has been assigned to the central headquarters due to a computer error. Please follow me.”
“Yes? Some kind of computer errors my ass!”
You know what it means when someone acts indifferently when they find the other person bothersome, right?
“I’m simply cooperating with the headquarters’ instructions. If you don’t follow orders, you can be disposed of on the spot, so follow me calmly.” Then he strode up to me with a blank face.
What the? Am I being dragged along like this? It was when I stepped back with a bewildered look on my face.
“Who posted that report?”
Then, a new person stormed in. All eyes in the management room swung toward the door. A large body that stands with its back to the light and creates a huge shadow. An archangel’s uniform that gradually shines clear as one moves along. That person had dark hair as dark as mine and green eyes that were brighter than I remembered. It was Ilya, an archangel with an unapproachable aura.
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Future Ilya’s in-law’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Crazy. Archangel Ilya is letting down his hair, right? My heart is pounding because I feel like he’s looking at me like I’m a bug.]
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘Face Inspector’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Doesn’t his hair and eye colors look different than when he was a professor? I guess things have changed a bit since he became the archdemon.]
As soon as I checked Ilya, I unconsciously smiled brightly. I almost ran to him saying, ‘Professor!’ when I met him. However, the current Ilya was an archangel, not my professor. This meant that we were meeting for the first time.
The atmosphere inside quickly became ambiguous. Zakari looked at Ilya, who suddenly appeared in wonder and lowered his baton. “What are you doing here?”
Ilya glanced at me. “I have business with that low-level angel.”
This time, I was focused on Ilya. Ilya stared at me and continued. “The appointment of this angel is a direct order from me. Unless someone manipulated an official document, it would mean they disobeyed my orders and did things independently. Investigate it.”
I was surprised by what he said. I thought it was strange, but it was because of Ilya that I moved to the central headquarters…? Why is that? My mind was confused by wonder.
In the meantime, Zakari put away his baton and bowed his head. “I will get started immediately.”
It was a neat attitude that I couldn’t believe was a man who was trying to drag me away at any moment. Because of this excessive loyalty, some people in heaven mocked Zakari, calling him a ‘headquarters dog.’
“…”
“…”
“…”
There are now three angels left in the management office: Violleta, I, and Ilya. The first one who acted was Violleta.
“Greetings to Lord Ilya. I’m Violleta, a mid-level angel.”
I followed and showed courtesy to Ilya. But Ilya didn’t even raise his head towards us. He just stared at me to the point where it felt burdensome, then opened his mouth.
“What were you doing here?”
Perhaps because of his blunt and cold tone, the question seemed like he was interrogating me. Violleta defended me as if she didn’t feel much different.
“I was serving tea to Theresa because her next work order hadn’t yet been given.”
Only then did Ilya’s gaze shift from my face to Violleta to the dried magic plants and teacups. His gaze reached me again. “Go back to the headquarters. Did you say your name Violleta? Please clean up everything in the management office.”
That’s a problem. My mouth moved freely without even recognizing that I shouldn’t have said it. “Then it will become difficult to take care of the pegasi!”
Violleta was very surprised and held me back. “I apologize. I will make sure to clean up the inside. She’s a low-level angel who knows nothing, so please have mercy on her.”
But now the water had already spilled. I added the understandable reason in a slightly quieter voice than before. “I understand that pegasus is a magical animal that is difficult to care for with the abilities of a mid-level angel. Even high-level angels find it difficult.”
Delios clearly said that.
“But here, Violleta is taking excellent care of the pegasi with her magical plants. If you remove the magical plants, her work efficiency will decrease.”
“So?”
“Can you give her permission to bring magical plants into the management office?”
Although it wasn’t added in the explanation, Violleta had to be isolated here with pegasi all day. The environment in which she couldn’t enjoy a cup of tea felt too harsh for her.
Ilya’s gaze fell heavily over my face. “You’re doing it again.”
“Yes?”
What do you mean by doing it again?
“If that were true, she should have written a report a long time ago and notified her superiors of the method. Since this is an act that hasn’t yet been classified as ‘work,’ it is no different from personal deviation. This means that it’s subject to punishment. What do you think about this?”
What do I think?
“I apologize…”
Ding!
[The Constellation ‘I Hate Romance’ has sponsored 100,000 coins.]
[Ilya’s expression got weird after she apologized right away. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ.]
His expression got weird? I lifted my head, which had been lowered, to check his expression. Before my eyes could even reach his face, he already turned around.
“If you heard it, make a report and submit it.”
Violleta belatedly understood what he had said to her, smiling brightly and showing courtesy. “Yes, Lord Ilya. Thank you for your generosity.”
I awkwardly straightened my back. Oh… We’re having a conversation, right?
Generosity. That word doesn’t suit Ilya the most in the world.
Anyway, it went well.
“Thank you, Lord Ilya!”
When I spoke with a big smile, Ilya, who was going outside, paused and nodded his head at me.
“Follow me.”
“Yes!”
I scurried along behind and looked at Violleta. We smiled at the same time.
“Thank you, Theresa.”
“You’re welcome. Thank you for the tea.”
Somehow, I had a good feeling that things would go well from now on.
