Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 393 " Oh , I totally remember ! It was a calico cat , right ? " " No. It was a cat that looked like a cow . " " R - Right ... I might've misremembered . It has been a very long time , to be fair . " Firefighters did a lot more than just fight fires , no matter what the title suggested . Rescuing cats from trees was part of the job too . I had been on all kinds of missions , and they weren't always about saving people . I had rescued so many pets that I had lost track of which was which , especially not the cat of some super fighter . Byleth said nothing .

The ice I had tried to break froze over again . " You're really skilled , Byleth . Are you sure you can beat a state champion ? " I asked , fishing for a topic . " Those titles are meaningless . They exist only for vanity . A real warrior doesn't waste time on such performances . " " Well , I can't say I disagree . " I hesitated , then added , " So , how much would you like to get paid ? I need you to come with me to a party tonight . I've got some trouble to handle . " " You saved my cat . " Her face remained unreadable , but her tone softened . " I don't take money from my savior .

" I grinned in relief . Ten years as a firefighter had finally paid off in good karma . " I just need you to feed me , " she said . ' Hold up . Stop right there ! ' I almost slammed my head against the steering wheel . " W - What ?! Feed you ? " I already had my hands full with a little girl determined to become my wife all on her own . Now a stunning bodyguard wanted me to " feed her " ? What kind of situation was this ? Byleth turned to me , looking genuinely puzzled . " How poorly have you been managing , Sebastian Grimwald ? Don't you provide room and board for your employees ?

" " Wait , that's what you meant by ' feeding ? ' Also , please , just call me Sebastian . " " What else could I have meant ? " she said flatly and went silent again . I couldn't help but laugh . This woman's logic was on an entirely different wavelength . That afternoon , I hired an investigator to dig into Renault and his team . He prided himself on being prepared for every battle , right ? Well , two could play that game . But the investigation turned up nothing unusual . His villa was perfectly ordinary , and he hadn't even hired extra bodyguards ahead of my visit .

I'd also run Byleth through the same physical tests we firefighters took during our regular assessments . She was nearly superhuman . Her speed , strength , and power shattered every record . Before joining the city's elite ranks , I never would've believed anyone could reach that level . The world truly had its share of surprises . When evening came , I drove to Astergrad U with Byleth beside me to pick up Julia . " Hey ya !

" Julia spotted me from across the lot and jogged over , grinning as she reached for the passenger door . The smile vanished when she saw the beautiful woman already sitting there . Her expression soured instantly . " Who the hell is this , mister ? Why are you bringing another woman with you ? " " Julia , meet Byleth Spada , " I said quickly . " She's a bodyguard I just hired . She might even be stronger than Renault's guy . Also , you'll have to take the backseat tonight . " " Who the hell would believe that ? " she muttered , pouting . " She doesn't even look the part .

She's not big enough . She looks more like a supermodel !
