An ominous feeling was brewing.
“Lisa! Where are you? Lisara!”
Simon hurried down to the basement. Broken jars of Gafen soldiers and human bloodstains can be seen everywhere.
Looks like someone has already passed through here.
My heart became more urgent. Simon leaped down the underground stairs and entered the basement where Lisara was.
‘!’
However, the stone door to her room was already half open.
“Lisa!”
I called her name and went inside.
The first thing you see as soon as you enter is Lisa. As she sat in the magic circle that Lethe had set up, her right arm and other parts of her body were unsteadily enlarged. It seemed to her that she had already changed into the monster’s form and then returned.
And a man lying in a pool of blood in the distance. It was the same paladin who was a companion of the former Akpaladin hunter. The sword lay in a lump at a distance.
‘It’s a step too late.’
Because her ritual was interrupted by Paladin, she was unable to fully digest the magic process Lethe had set up. The elements of the magic circle that remained were disappearing like dust.
More than anything else, Lisa seemed to have suffered a major psychological shock before the physical injury.
“… … Investigator.”
Lisara spotted Simon and looked up.
“I-I killed someone again.”
“Lisa.”
“He kept hitting me with his sword and said.”
She wrapped her arms around her neck.
“Die quickly. Do you know how many people are trembling in fear because of you? Your death is for the sake of this world.”
Drops of tears dripped onto the basement floor.
“It’s not wrong, so I couldn’t refute it.”
Her emotions fluctuated and her body began to change. Her whole body is elongated and her skin is sticking.
“You risked your life for me, but I… … !”
“Lisa!”
Simon groaned.
Half-devil, she looked at Simon in amazement.
“I am not dead yet.”
Simon had already cast a ‘healing’ spell on the bleeding paladin’s body. He quickly healed his wounds and poured several bottles of potion.
After completing the emergency measures, he dragged the paladin, took out a rope, and tied it to the pole.
To be honest, I was a little angry.
‘I managed to hold on to Lisara’s mentality, but this person almost ruined it.’
Simon glanced at her.
‘But there is definitely progress.’
If I’m not mistaken, it looks like she’s gained a little extra weight from her skinny, mummy-like body from before.
A sign of change.
I see hope. This is not the time to despair, it is the time to rejoice in success and move forward.
“Relax and listen, Lisa. Aitula came here.”
“yes?”
“Everyone including the other starters. I came to protect you. Right now you’re outside fighting soldiers trying to arrest you.”
Simon listened to Aitula’s words without hesitation.
Lisa seemed to be in great shock.
“Sister Aitula… … ! Even if that happened, for me… … !”
It was then that the change happened. Her limbs turned white and fleshed out a little more from her skinny demonic body.
‘also!’
Simon’s eyes sparkled.
In the case of Risara’s predecessor, ‘The Saint of the New Mother’, when she was a 17-year-old freshman, her hair dyed black and fell out, suffering from extreme depression. The reason she overcame her at this time was a word from a boy who was in love with her.
-why? I don’t know what you used to be, but I like your hair now.
From then on, her hair grew long again. In other words, the awakening condition for the saints of this lineage is spiritual growth.
The more self-deprecating and mentally bogged down Lisara gets, the more ugly she becomes. But she also has the opposite case. She may be able to regain her original form as a saint.
“Lisa. I’ll go there.”
Simon strode along. Lisara hid! It shrunk to its original size with a sound.
“Pre-generated number 10 Euclid.”
Simon respectfully knelt in front of her and held out his hands.
“I will ask for excellence in the name of the goddess.”
“yes?”
As she looked at her blankly, Simon smiled shyly.
“First of all, I am also a selection student on paper. You know that no one in Sky Island can refuse you, right?”
She quickly knelt down and took Simon’s hand.
“Mu, mumu, of course Niedak! Bar, I accept!”
Soon, the two looked at each other.
In silence, Simon spoke first.
“Lisa.”
“Ah yes!”
“Do you remember when we celebrated excellence together during the ‘Street Tour’ at the rookie worship service?”
She shyly nodded.
“I can’t forget… … No.”

-believe. yourself and no one else.
-You are the one who causes divinity. What you need right now is not faith in the goddess, but faith in yourself.
“How are you now? Do you trust yourself?”
She bowed her head at Simon’s question.
After hesitating for a moment, she slowly shook her head.
“To be honest, I don’t think I believe it. No matter how you think about it, she doesn’t deserve to be a former saint.”
Having gone through so many things, he is probably more disgusted and ashamed of himself than anyone else. But Simon gave strength to his joined hands.
“doesn’t care. Because we believe in you.”
“yes?”
“Saint Lethe, who is fighting Dana for you, Professor Broderick, and Professor Gafen.”
Simon’s voice continued.
“Even the pickers from 1 to 8, even Aitula, all believe in you. You don’t deserve to be a saint recognized by people? What does that matter?”
Simon smiled, revealing this.
“If you think you are not qualified to be a saint for all, then you are a saint for those who believe in you. how is it?”
Her pupils were greatly dilated.
-Lisa is amazing. It is the treasure of our clan.
-Only saints in high places are saints? Lisa is our pride, the saintess of Prispelman!
The words the villagers told me when I entered Apenel.
At that time, she accepted this and thought that the goddess was punishing her.
But Simon is positive.
Actually, what about the continent and the residents of the Holy Federation? That doesn’t come to mind.
But if it’s to protect the people I touch.
“still… … Can I?”
The bridge of her nose twitched.
“Can I be such an insignificant saint?”
“It’s not insignificant.”
Simon chuckled.
“To some people, she is the best saint.”
Lisara’s face turned red.
A man with the face of a man who tried to kill himself. He was understandably afraid at first. But the more I talked to him, the more I knew he was a warm person.
A strong conviction that he is a completely separate human being from Euclid. Then he looked different.
As time passed, the feelings she harbored grew.
“Inspector.”
Lisara approached slowly.
and.
“!”
Simon felt the world around him turn white for an instant.
A throne made from the remains of the essence of three saints.
Next to it is the fourth throne. The throne is wrapped around a carved human arm.
‘what? How did the remains of the next essence come in?’
Suddenly, I got the remains of the next saint’s essence.
There are 3 thrones left.
While Simon thinks so.
“!”
Her white vision returned to normal, and Risara’s pink lips were visible in front of her nose.
Although they couldn’t reach each other by a piece of paper, their breath was transmitted.
Lisara, who had closed her eyes with a flushed face, quickly turned her head to the side.
“Oh, I’m sorry! Unbeknownst to me!”
Simon also smiled embarrassed and withdrew.
She muttered in a very low voice, her lips still pouting with a flushed face.
“If you do this… … because it’s a foul I have no face to see Lethe-nim.”
“? What are you talking about?”
“Oh, nothing!”
cooong!
Then a roar rang out from above on the ground.
Looks like the battle is still going on. Simon corrected his expression.
“Then let’s start over. Are you ready?”
“yes.”
She joined her hands.
The divinity remaining on the floor created a light.
“I am-“
Dazzling brilliance emanated from her body, and the saintess’ power was demonstrated. Simon took a few steps back and watched them.
Soon, she shouted like an incantation.
“Anything is possible!”
***
“Stop! Protect the saints!”
“Break through the mansion! Catch and kill the devil!”
The fort went into full melee.
Not only the new disciples and starters, but also the paladins under her direct command, whom Lette deliberately placed on standby, all joined in the battle to protect Lethe.
The holy woman of judgment, Dana, who had been silently watching the battle, spoke calmly.
“You are loved by many, Lethe.”
ha.
Kut.
huh
Lethe’s condition was not normal. Blood dripped from his forehead, and his right arm, his school uniform torn, was pinned with his left arm in a droopy state. The two trembling legs are precarious as if they would collapse into their seats at any moment.
“I wasn’t in normal condition from the start, but I’ll praise you for stopping me with your body.”
“shut up!”
As Lethe screamed and waved her arms, a light flashed from the sky and a comet rained down.
Dana held the sword with an interested face.
“The next strongest might be you. but-“
Her sword cut through the air.
“Not yet.”
jump!
A descending star split left and right, drawing a large cross-section. Lethe said ‘Damn it!’ he spat out her curse words and stretched out her right arm again.
While the battle between the two continued, the overall battle situation was also getting more and more advantageous for Dana’s side, who had a lot of numbers.
– Kreurreung!
In the end, the divine beasts also lost their strength and were captured by the soldiers of the General Secretary’s side one by one.
– Heo-eok! omg! Dear Paladin! I will ask for excellence!
-Gee, now?
– Excellence in first generation is absolute! Do you want to buy the wrath of a great goddess?
Even the selected students squeezed out all possible methods and even forced themselves to endure it. However, the deepening of the defeat could not be helped.
– Broderick’s barrier is broken!
– Let’s go in!
Finally, even Broderick collapsed, and the large-scale troops blocked by the barrier began to enter at once. Dana, who was watching the scene leisurely, looked at Lethe.
“It is over. If you surrender the devil even now, I will spare your life.”
“… … Stop talking nonsense.”
Lette smiled, wiping her mouth with her sleeve.
“Do you check with your own eyes whether it is a demon or not?”
“what?”
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
As soon as Lethe’s words were finished, a dazzling flash came from the mansion. All the soldiers who were fighting or rushing in stopped and raised their heads.
A gigantic female figure with dazzling hair and a body covered in light soared into the sky.
Tall height, wings on his back, pure white jade skin, and a graceful face.
It was no different from the appearance of an ‘angel’ commonly described in the scriptures.
She joined her hands.
[I am not a demon. My name is Lisa.]
she opened her eyes
[This is a saintess recognized by the great goddess.]
The soldiers started whispering.
“Risara is definitely a ‘demon’ that needs to be subdued… … .”
“Is that the devil? Where are you looking?”
In an instant, chaos broke out throughout the formation.
“This is bad.”
Dana straightened her sword and tried to swing it at Lisara.
“No way!”
Lethe immediately charged in and desperately grabbed her sword with both arms. The one who tries to cut and the one who tries to stop. Sparks flew from both of their eyes.
[Stop fighting.]
When Risara put strength into her two hands, the power of a dazzling saintess and pure divinity gushed out.
The soldiers and paladins were all agitated.
“To say such a beautiful and pure divinity… … !”
“This too… … .”
“no! no!”
The Viceroy, who jumped forward, shouted as if in a fit of fuss.
“That’s the devil! I mean the devil! Attack everyone!”
Lisara flew up into the sky, pouring out even brighter light.
[Remove the sword. I can no longer forgive hurting the people I love.]
clap.
okay.
Then, as if the soldiers were possessed, they started dropping their weapons on the floor one by one.
“Gratula mi kibilis.”
“Gratula mi kibilis.”
Then, as if in prayer, he clasped his hands together and bowed his head.
One by one, the number of people who dropped their weapons and fell on their knees increased, and before they knew it, everyone in the area was bowing their heads.
“Meet the daughter closest to the goddess!”
As if in response, Risara emitted a dazzling divinity. The Prime Minister’s desperate cry to attack was scattered in vain.
A miracle is happening.
“ha.”
and.
Climbing up on the roof of the mansion, Simon watched it with a smile.
“You made it just right, Lisa.”
A dazzling light illuminated the dark dawn sky.
The civil war is coming to an end.
