Chapter 63: Meeting and Reunion (3) The female knight who introduced herself as a knight commander took us to a room with nothing special.
However, it is said that that room is the saint's office.
It is understandable that this room, the saint's office, is ordinary.
This is not even the capital city where the church's headquarters is located; it's just a rather large city. It can be said that just preparing a clean room was enough to provide an office for the temple.
What I found puzzling was why a saint needed an office. I think I said it before, a saint has high authority because of her special nature, but that doesn't mean she has high authority.
Did she ever make the saint work so much that her office was needed? The saints I've seen so far are usually of high status, either moving around and acting as the face of the church, or becoming a member of the hero party with powerful divine powers.
It seems like the saint in this episode is a bit of a unique character.
In the room where the saint had not yet arrived, there were four people forming a subtle relationship: me, Flora, a female knight, and an unknown hooded woman.
It wasn't a very friendly atmosphere.
Why on earth did you call us?
I asked the female knight, but she just told me to wait a moment.
And finally.
– Dalkak.
"You've been waiting a long time, right?"
The saint has arrived.
Now you can hear the story.
"What? "Who is that person?"
The saintess tilted her head when she saw the hooded woman she had not seen before.
You are already in the same boat. Let's go to the end.
"He is our colleague. "I was away for a while earlier."
"Ah... "
The saintess looked around at the three of us for a moment and then made an expression on her face that she recognized something. Did you get caught?
"Hmm... Okay. All right. "Then I will check it first. Do you have business with me?"
"Yes. "I have something to ask you."
Fortunately, it seems that the fact that the hooded woman was not originally our colleague was not discovered.
When she was about to ask for relief from her curse, the saint stopped her.
"I can't do you a favor personally. If that happens, there will be a huge number of people asking for the same favor."
That's right.
"But I think I can ask for a favor first and then repay the favor."
Ah. Are you going to come out like that?
Surely. If you say it is a repayment for a favor, it becomes justification.
"What request?"
"Uhm... Wait a minute. Leader. "Can you give me a list of things we need to do?"
"Here it is. "Saint."
The saint took the list given by the female knight and began to look through it.
It didn't take that long.
"Ah. This would be nice. It's not difficult, but it's annoying... Huh. "It was something I hadn't done yet because I had a lot of other things to do."
"This?"
"Yes. Would you like to read it?"
When the saint read the selected part of the list she had given, she found a brief explanation of certain things.
'Report of D-class dungeon appearance'
'A dungeon has appeared in patrol area 36. Judging by the amount of magic, it is judged to be a D-class dungeon. In my personal opinion, I think it's better to deal with it before it grows.'
"Dungeon? Aren't dungeons usually handled by the adventurer's guild?"
"Usually it is. But this dungeon... Would you like to see the location?"
"Location? ... Ah."
I didn't know where it was because it just said it was a patrol area, but when I looked at the map that came with it, the location of the dungeon was in the mountains. And deep in the mountains.
"It's difficult to come and go because it's such a remote location, and since it's only D grade, the rewards are low, and there are no adventurers who take requests, so we took on the responsibility."
"That's right... "
The guild has a lot of guts to hand over the work to a saint. I guess she didn't expect a saint to come to the temple.
"We are also reluctant to accept this request. If you do this, I will repay your request in the way you want. How do you feel?"
"Can we discuss this for a moment?"
"Of course."
I took Flora and the hooded woman to a corner of the room so that the saint and the female knight could not hear them.
"That's right, what do you think?"
"I do not care. "It's my first time in a dungeon, so I'm a little excited."
"Flora is like that. That... Hmm. What should I call you?"
Because I can't keep calling her a hoodie. I asked directly.
"You know. "Call me Asil."
"Is it your name?"
"Okay. And there is no need to raise your voice. From the looks of it, it looks like we will be doing this request together."
"Then I will do that. But, joining together means that you also agree to receiving the request, right?"
"It seems there is no other way. I can't help it. "I have something I must ask of you."
When Asil said that, he seemed quite desperate.
"Good. Then you will receive a request."
Finally, after receiving her confirmation from Flora and Asil, she informed the saint of her intention to accept her request.
As if the saint already knew, she handed over the prepared materials while we were talking naturally.
But. They are people who have come to see a saint, so there is no possibility that they will not accept her request.
"Really. How do I report the request?"
"You just need to bring me an item from the last treasure chest in the dungeon. "There is a way to check, so I will process the report using that."
"Yes. I'll see you later then."
"Goodbye."
The two of us, no, now there were three of us including Asil, left the temple and headed to the restaurant first.
We had something to say to each other, and more importantly, it was lunchtime while we were meeting the saint.
Food is an important matter.
Perhaps because so many people had gathered in front of the temple, we sat across from each other around the table in the strangely empty restaurant.
However...
"You know. In the future, we will be working together even if it is just for one request. Wouldn't it be okay to take off the hood?"
"Hmm. That's right. "I forgot because I was always using it."
Asil looked around and pulled back his hood.
As I glanced at from inside the carriage, she was a beautiful woman with distinct features.
However, there is something interesting.
"... Huh? Ah. "This?"
Asil, noticing our gaze, grabbed a handful of her own hair and lifted it up.
Her hair, tied in pigtails near her neck, seemed like ordinary silver hair at first glance.
If you look closely, the color changes to blue, green, red, and yellow depending on the angle.
Well, it may be rude to compare it like this, but it shined in various colors like oil in the sunlight.
"It's because I have a somewhat unusual constitution. Everyone looked at me curiously."
"Ah. So you were wearing a hood? Are you worried about the gaze?"
"Did you say Flora? That... What. "You're half right."
Asil seemed reluctant to explain in more detail.
There's no need to dig into what you want to hide. She received the food at a good time and changed the topic as she started eating.
"If we want to party together, we need to know what we can do, right? "I fight on the front line using a sword and a shield."
"I am a wizard. Um, so... "Is it called a rear-guard position?"
After Flora and I introduced ourselves first, Asil also started introducing himself.
"I am also a vanguard. The weapon used is a gauntlet."
"Gauntlets? "Are you a deacon?"
"Uhm... To be exact, it's a bit different. It would be better to see it in person."
After finishing our meal, we went out to a suitable vacant lot.
He said he would show me in person.
Asil confirmed that there was no one around this time and took off his hood.
I guess I'm the type that pays a lot of attention to eye contact.
– Slurp.
I thought he was just taking off the hood, but he took off the robe and put it down.
A loose shirt that goes down to the thighs, and pants so short that only the ends of the hair are visible, hidden by the shirt.
The clearly exposed thighs look healthy.
And, um... I didn't know it was above the lob, but the mid is amazing.
Even if you look at it, it's bigger than I.
The saint was also quite voluptuous.
If you think about it, I also have big breasts, so I get to see big breasts one after another.
Asil did not notice my gaze and continued speaking.
"Let me just say this first. "I am a spirit warrior."
"Spiritist? Or a deacon?"
"Spirit Fist. What. Just watch. Gnome."
When Asil called her name, her earth rose, and she took the form of a beautiful girl.
An earth spirit with beautiful blonde hair. It was a gnome.
Gnomes are usually depicted as bearded dwarves, but this is a game. It's natural that she's a pretty girl.
The summoned gnome looked at Asil.
– Pong.
He jumped into Asil's chest and disappeared.
No, what?
"What? It disappeared?"
"No. It's not gone. This... "
Asil puffed out her chest and spoke in a slightly proud manner.
"It's a merger!"
Asil said that, her hair starting to turn golden little by little.
Eventually, all of her hair turned blonde, and she clearly didn't look like a gnome.
But is that all?
"Amalgamation?"
Spirit dye?
"Of course, changing colors isn't everything. Soira. Cut a path here with that knife."
Asil rolled up her arms and held them out.
I don't know what it means, but I'm sure everyone has an idea.
– Keying!
Even if she was injured, her forearm, which she cut with enough force to only slightly cut her skin, was fine.
No, the sound and feel of her strokes were stranger than that. It's not like flesh, it's like cutting something harder, like a rock... Rock?
I think I know something.
When I looked at Asil, she explained it herself.
"That's right. By combining with a spirit, you can display the spirit's attributes. "That's the Spiritual Fist."
"No, that's something I've never heard of before..." "
"You said you had a unique constitution, right? Thanks to that. "I am probably the only spirit wielder in the world."
Anyway, does it make sense for something to be this unique?
It's been a while since I peeked at the status window.
「Asil」
「Race: Half-human, half-human」
「Strength: 10」
「Stamina: 10」
「Dexterity: 11」
「Intelligence: 10」
「Magic power: 12」
His abilities were normal, although his magic power was a bit high. Considering that 10 is about the level of an adult male who exercises moderately, a score of 10 for a woman was high for a woman, but an adventurer should do at least that much.
But, half man, half man? Was there such a mixed race?
No, can spirits get pregnant in the first place? It's sex, it's a gay game, so you can do it.
