      ༺ Delinquent Saintess (1) ༻
 
          
  There were a lot of people in the world living impoverished lives.
 
  It could be due to lack of money, background or perhaps a reflection of their innate talent. 
 
  In every sector, there was always a gap between the rich and the poor, but all of them tended to desire a better and abundant future.
 
  However, there were a few rare exceptions to this rule.
 
  There were those who lived an excessively superfluous lives – people who were blessed with a bunch of things from birth.
 
  Estelle Hadassa El Rath was one of such people.
 
  The 1st Princess of the El Rath Kingdom,
 
  The one and only Saintess of the New Faith, the Grand Chapel of Zeon.
 
  She was born a noble birth and was the Saintess whose very existence was accompanied by the evident miracles of the gods. Being the one and only Saintess and someone connected directly to the gods, even the Pope, the head of the order, had to treat her with a considerable amount of respect.
 
  Estelle was one of the two princesses of the continent and a successor to the throne while also being the unique Saintess of the New Faith.
 
  Born with everything, she was like a celestial angel who reached levels far too high for a normal person. Because of that, she became quite… or rather, significantly carefree.
 
『Saintess. How is your life at the Academy?』
 
  “Same as always. The guys still drool when they see me and the juniors are cute! Of course, little Hua Ran is adorable as always!”
 
『…』
 
  On the other side of the communication device, the head of the order who was about to reach 80 years of age, Pope Sicarii Iscariot, seemed troubled by her carefreeness.
 
『If you wish to escape the eyes of the guys, Saintess, first off you ought to do something about that indecent outfit of yours.』
 
  Pope Sicarii stated while glancing at her clothing through the communication device.
 
  Crafted with the best silk among the best from the south and a generous amount of golden strings and ornaments, it was a pure white outfit representing the purity of the order.
 
  Even though the Zeon Order was unafraid of demonstrating their fanciness, it had to be subtle instead of being open. For example, the ambient emerald on the rosary being the best the world could offer, or the belt around the sacred outfit being the order-made masterpiece of a master craftsman… Like that, furtively showing off their wealth in a way that only the sophisticated could perceive was the ‘elegant virtue’ of the high templars and nobles and yet…
 
  The Saintess, with the showy outfit of a nouveau riche that highlighted the perfect lines of her body, was closer to being strange in the eyes of others let alone carefree.
 
  “Why? It’s cute, isn’t it? Back in the chapel the guys would only steal glances but in the Academy, there are a few people that try to boast about themselves, saying they are the kids of a count or the successor of a big merchant family.”
 
  That was only natural.
 
  Her pinkish hair, which was slightly different from the crimson red hair color that represented the royal family, was incredibly adorable. Not to mention, her eyes that were as clear as the sky shone brightly like the greatest emerald in the world.
 
  On top of that, the order-made costume that had a rather high level of exposure and openness was something people couldn’t readily wear without having full confidence in their body image.
 
  All things considered, it was quite natural for young teenage boys, and even girls, to be enticed by her charm.
 
『Monkeys see, monkeys do. You need to show yourself as an example. In the first place, the clothing for Sister Hua Ran that you designed was…』
 
  “It’s cute, isn’t it? It looks so cute!”
 
『Haa…』
 
  Estelle floated a smile despite the sigh from the 80-year-old man from the other side of the device.
 
  It had already been a while since Pope Sicarii gave up on her.
 
『More importantly, how is the relocation plan of the convicts?』
 
  “We will be moving them with the Holy Knights that were urgently dispatched to the city. Big heretic, Morushtan of the Tower, Formation Expert Kang Ryun who was being locked up in Merkarva and the Chargers of the Cross from the Old Faith – there is a whole load to transfer.”
 
『What an utterly unbelievable bunch. We must definitely punish them in the Chapel of Zeon.』
 
  Like what Pope Sicarii said, the heinous criminals that had been imprisoned at Merkarva were evil villains that Estelle could not forgive, in spite of her relaxed personality.
 
  Elder Morushtan had carried out experiments of black magic that insulted the gods, and Kang Ryun had formed an evil plan against the probationary sister of the New Faith, Hua Ran.
 
  There were more. Recently, the mages of the Tower and other criminals were being imprisoned left and right, all thanks to the amazing contributions of a certain promising junior.
 
  “Your Holiness. I really think there is a need for us to pressure the Tower of Mages as a group.”
 
『In regards to that, we will discuss it after you arrive. Is your departure date still the 5th of June?』
 
  “Yes. There are a lot of criminals so we have to travel on foot, meaning it will take quite some time to get there.”
 
『I see. Be careful on your way.』
 
  With that, the pope ended the communication. Giving a long stretch, Estelle basked in the warm sunlight.
 
***
 
  The Merkarva Academy campus was as relaxed as always. 
 
  There were fewer subject requirements compared to modern universities, and even those few subjects were replaceable with missions given by the Guardian Alliance, so it was commonplace for the proactive 2nd year students to prefer external missions than lectures.
 
  And that was the same for us, Korin Guardians.
 
  “Boss. I’m done on this end.”
 
  Dorron Warsky reported back after finishing his side of things. Behind his back, a dozen or so  magic swords were floating in the air, dripping with blood.
 
  “Already? Looks like you’re getting even better at flying your swords around.”
 
  Due to cutting through the bones and flesh of the demonic beasts, his swords were covered with blood and fat. That was the very proof that his swords had cut deeply into the flesh of the beasts.
 
  It was a mission to defend a village from a monster outbreak, but the horde of monsters crumbled down like autumn leaves before the overwhelming might of Dorron and Kranel.
 
  “Well. It’s all because of this sword that I got thanks to you.”
 
He said while grabbing onto a large golden magic sword out of the swords that were floating around him.
 
  Great Fury, Moralltach. It was one of the legendary hidden pieces of ❰Heroic Legends of Arhan❱ and a magic sword of destruction that had impressive AOE attacks.
 
  “This sword that I got from Manannan is something else.”
 
  Dorron exclaimed as he glanced at a corner of the village that we defended. There was a huge crevice left behind on the ground that proved the might of Moralltach.
 
  Like how I received treasures from the Island of Treasures, Mag Mell, Dorron and a few of the other members of the guild also managed to obtain a treasure. 
 
  It was very unexpected that Marie, Alicia, and Hua Ran were unable to obtain anything but… there was only one chance to obtain a treasure in Mag Mell so there was no way around it.
 
  “Anyway, with this over, we should have more than enough achievements for a promotion.”
 
  “You mean for a guild promotion?”
 
  “I don’t think there has been any other guild that became Grade 1, 2 months after establishment.”
 
  Ever since we created our guild, we completed every single mission we could from the missions given out by the Guardian Alliance. It was an ‘octopus tentacle tactic’, which was only possible thanks to the impressive combat prowess of our Guardians Guild.
 
  Thanks to that, we were able to quickly accumulate all the necessary achievement points for a promotion.
 
  “We had to do it though, because it’s about time we needed a public voice and authority.”
 
  “I feel even this isn’t enough if we think about your plans and goals, Boss.”
 
  After we were done with the mission, we quickly returned on a wyvern. We were only able to carry out external missions without feeling burdened by them thanks to these wyverns. 
 
  The wyverns Marie bought for us were energetic despite several intense flights in a row and they were an extremely fast transportation method.
 
  Besides, thanks to Marie’s status as the lady of a Dukedom, we weren’t subjected to the law of ‘No Flights inside the City’ and didn’t have to stop by the wyvern landing platforms in the nearby villages, which helped us save around 2 days of time every mission.
 
  “Huu…”
 
  “Korin, you’re back!”
  
  Marie welcomed me when we returned from the mission. She seemed to have just come back from a mission herself, and was wearing an outfit that was catered to activities.
 
  “…”
 
  “Uun?” What’s wrong?”
 
  “No. Nothing.”
 
  But still, what was with those vulgar clothes that were exposing her belly and her thighs…? 
 
  The female clothing in this world is way too revolutionary.
 
  “Where are you looking… Ahah?”
 
  After seemingly noticing my line of sight, Marie closed the hems of her robe with a sensuous gaze, sat down on the bed and tapped her lap.
 
  She was inviting me and telling me to hurry up.
 
  “K, kuhum…! I need to write a report for clearing the mission to the Alliance.”
 
  “You can do that later~”
 
  “R, right.”
 
  In the end, I couldn’t overcome her seduction. A fluffy and voluptuous pillow… There was probably no-one in this world that could resist such a thing…
 
  “Come on~. Good boy. Rest assured and feel free to take a nap, okay?”
 
  Ahh, my consciousness was starting to fade.
 
  Burying my head on the large cushion, my mind slowly started to fade from the pleasant scent of her—
 
  -MEOWWWWWWW!!!!!!
 
  “Uahhk?!”
 
  It was right when I was about to fall into deep sleep – a sudden and loud growl woke me up from the bed. Looking around, I saw on the other side of the window of the Guardians Dormitory, a cat with red eyes.
 
  “Aigu. Navi, you’re back!”
 
  That black cat was a cat that recently started roaming around our dormitory building. As someone from Korea, I naturally gave it the most common Korean cat name and fed it from time to time. 
 
  “Come here.”
 
  Navi immediately jumped into my arms the moment I opened the window. It became very attached to me after I fed it a few times.
 
  “Senior, do we have some leftover fish in the fridge? This guy loves fish. Actually, for some reason, it especially loves braised mackerel.”
 
  “…I’ll go bring it.”
 
  Marie didn’t seem too keen. I thought she was the type of person that would love cats and dogs but…
 
  “Meoww~”
 
  When she left, Navi started to adorably rub her head on my chest.
 
  “Huhu. Little Navi. Are you making sure you’re healthy?”
 
  It was my first time having an animal be this attached to me, so that made me all the more pleased by Navi’s adorable actions.
 
  “Ehew~. Navi! Do you love daddy that much?”
 
  Even when I tickled her on the chin and caressed her on the head, the cat didn’t seem displeased in the slightest. How could there be such a cute organism in this world?
 
  “Korin! I brought… the fish! Haak! Haa!”
 
  Before long, Marie came back panting as if she had been in a huge rush and began putting down several frozen fish on the shelf. 
 
  “Why were you in a rush? You could have taken your time.”
 
  “Nnn? No, I wasn’t in a rush or anything.”
 
  “There’s no way… I can see you panting…”
 
  “No? I wasn’t though?”
 
  For some reason, she appeared strange and although that made me curious, I decided to let it go for now.
 
  “By the way Korin, do you remember how we received a gift from the Danann of Love back when we went to Mag Mell?”
 
  -Meow…
 
  Strangely enough, Navi responded to Marie’s words. 
 
  I returned a nod, because that was something I had heard from them already.
 
  “Alicia received the 『Red Horse of Nebann』 and you got the 『Curse of Macha』, right?”
 
  The horse Alicia received was a really excellent horse. Although it wasn’t at the level of Enbarr, the horse that Park Sihu got in the last iteration, it was still a superb magic horse. 
 
  It was the warhorse of a goddess that instilled fear in living beings and chased evil spirits away just with its presence.
 
  Even though it fell short compared to the numerous legendary and epic items that you could obtain at Mag Mell, it was definitely in the realm of a treasure.
 
  “Nn. And as for mine, even though I can only use it on men… it is a powerful curse that can be used on a large scale as long as I make enough preparations.”
 
  “From what I heard, it sounded… pretty spooky.”
 
  The Curse of Macha that Marie received from Oengus was a curse that could only be inflicted on men. An AOE skill that…
 
  “Making them feel the pain of childbirth for 9 days… Isn’t that too evil?”
 
  “Definitely not something to be used lightly.”
 
  Although it certainly was a powerful curse, there were a lot of conditions that had to be met, and there was the downside that it didn’t work on people with a high enough magic resistance.
 
  I was thinking about where we could possibly make use of that curse when Marie slightly changed the topic.
 
  “Korin. Did you hear about the present that Hua Ran got?”
 
  “No? She refused to tell me about it.”
 
  “Hnn~ I see~ I see, huh.”
 
  -Meoww
 
  It was highly likely that I was thinking things, but I had a feeling that Navi was acting strange for a while – she appeared hostile to Marie…
 
  “You should ask her one day! More importantly, Navi~? Shall we go outside and play together?”
 
  “Meowww…!”
  
  Navi gave a sharp growl in return but didn’t run away from her hands. It was my first time seeing her being taken away by someone else.
 
  For some reason, it felt… a bit sad to see that.
 
  ‘Anyway, what in the world did Hua Ran get?’
 
I was feeling more and more curious when the sound of a noisy alarm rang from the headquarters of the Guardians office.
 
  -BEEEEEEEEEP!!
 
  Echoing across the office was a sharp noise that was solely used for gathering the attention of those listening. Besides, it wasn’t just a normal warning alarm – it was a sound that alerted of something a lot more dangerous and urgent.
 
  “Korin. What is this?”
 
  “…What’s going on?”
 
  “Meow?”
 
  Letting go of Navi, we quickly headed to the office.

  After creating a guild, there was no need to bother heading to the Mission Board to accept a quest. It was because you could construct a magic mission board inside the office that updated the missions in real time, after leveling up the guild building.
 
  Real-time update meant that it could also serve as a device that allowed the Alliance to send notifications to various guilds. 
 
  Those could include notices of conferences regarding guild promotions, training modules and—
 
『A notice from the Central Guardian Alliance to 15 cities near and including Merkarva.』
 
『Following Section 39 Clause 4 of the Kingdom Military Service Act, this is a notification in case of an emergency. Every registered Guardians Guild must collaborate with the administrations of each city, halt every other operation and wait for further orders.』
 
『This is not a training exercise. I repeat. This is not a training exercise.』
