Returning to the church

After the duke left, it was business as usual.

This time, I didn't plan on going anywhere since I had been away for a long time already.

I wanted to actually help Rose in managing my territory, but…she didn't have anything for me to do.

In fact, the way that she said it almost made it seem like she thought I was a nuisance instead of being helpful…

It really stung, but I couldn't argue with her.

There weren't many things that I could do to help when it came to managing the territory.

All I could do was some of the menial stuff and there were plenty of people that were available for that.

So other than showing my face for important events, there really wasn't much for me to do.

So I was allowed to do what I wanted even though I wanted to help, as long as I didn't get in the way. But whenever I tried doing anything, I would be in the way and they would let me know.
