Chapter 126: Hero Party and Saint (1)

Chapter 126: Hero Party and Saint (1) "Wasn't it confirmed to be safe?"

Lev, the hero party's scout, looked at the huge scar on the floor and wiped his sweat-soaked forehead.

The clothes were treated with magic, so it wasn't uncomfortable if I sweated a little, but there was nothing I could do about getting my head soaked.

Even if I used Clean, my heated body immediately after strenuous exercise would quickly return to being like a soggy rat.

If there was a wizard in the party, it would be refreshing to ask them to summon water and cover themselves. Lev was just sad about it, but he couldn't help not to have it.

"Great job. Lev."

Silpierre, a fellow member of the hero party, approached Lev, who was muttering clean spells as sweat dripped down his face.

As an elf, she retained the fresh scent unique to an elf even after sweating.

Lev answered while secretly inhaling the scent without being noticed.

"Uh, okay. "You did a good job too."

On the way to the orc cave where the demon summoning circle was said to have been discovered, the hero party encountered a formidable enemy a little while ago.

A demon with dozens of tentacles writhing.

Apparently, when the saintess asked the hero party for an escort request a few days ago, she said, 'It was confirmed that there was nothing through the investigation of the advance team,' but she was not just a monster, but a summoned demon.

After saying that the saint confirmed that there was nothing, she added, 'But for some reason, I feel bad.' But could this be understood as just saying that she felt bad?

If it were the intuition of a saint who could communicate directly with God, she knew that it was not just intuition, but the devil was too much to do.

However, she cannot complain directly to the saint.

At the same time, in some ways, it was a very appropriate decision to ask the hero party, which had a hero with a holy sword, to escort the devil.

The warrior's holy sword and the saint's excellent sacred arts. Even if one of the two wasn't there, I wouldn't have been able to kill the demon as safely as I did now.

Okay. Safely.

Lev asked Silpierre, kicking the log-sized tentacle that was the remains of the devil.

"How's Gaidon doing?"

"You're safe. Because Berti treated it right away."

Gaidon, the tank of the hero party. He contributed greatly to the party by quickly recognizing when the party was ambushed by a demon and blocking his first attack.

With just that one hit, he fell far away and retired, but if he hadn't been able to block the attack, there might have been already dead. No, one or two people must have died.

Even though he had clearly blocked it with a shield, Lev still enjoyed the sight of Gaidon, wearing thick magic armor, flying horizontally as if using flight magic. Moreover, it was obvious what would have happened if another party member wearing only light armor or a wizard's magic costume had been hit.

I was worried about Gaidon, who flew away, but fortunately, Berti, the party's priest, immediately followed him and used a sacred magic for recovery, so as long as he didn't die instantly, everything would work out.

Even though I made fun of that boy with short black hair for his young appearance, I still recognized his abilities.

"I thought it was really dangerous this time, but I'm glad. "I'll have to pet it later."

"Are you trying to treat Bertie like a child again? "She's a full-fledged adult woman, so you shouldn't touch her like that."

"Hey, what can I do against a kid?"

Lev liked her slimmer figure.

Aside from that, she has a wide strike zone, so Berti is the only girl in the hero party that doesn't suit his taste.

'No matter what, it's not right to touch him. I don't know if they attack me first.'

Even if it's not her taste, she doesn't mind a pretty girl. That was Lev, who was known for being easy on women.

"Silpierre, Lev. Let's move."

"Ah. Serena. "Is Gaidon completely healed?"

"Okay. The saint also healed Berti."

When Gaidon, the only seriously injured person, recovered, the hero party moved towards the cave, which was their original destination.

A cave where a demon summoning magic circle was recently discovered.

The saintess herself came to purify the area after dispatching an advance party several times to confirm that there were no problems, but no one expected that they would encounter a summoned demon rather than a summoning magic circle.

Fortunately, I was able to win safely because I didn't use even half of the devil's tentacles, perhaps because I didn't have enough magic power.

Since I had already seen the one summoned, I couldn't conclude that there wasn't a second one.

The hero party escorted the saintess in the middle of her party and explored the cave.

"... "Wait a minute."

Lev, who was carefully examining the cave where all he could see was an orc corpse, gave a stop signal to the party.

It means that something has been discovered.

The cave had already been investigated by the advance team, but they were priests of the church and not professional scouts like Lev.

Lev found a box they couldn't find.

The saint, who saw the box after Lev, suggested that he open her box.

"It's a box. "Can I open it?"

"Of course."

Lev answered confidently and searched around his waist to use the trap disarming kit in case something unexpected happened.

"... Oh. There was this."

Lev let out a brief exclamation when he saw the trap disarming kit he had taken out.

It's his anyway, so why would he do that? The saint was puzzled when he read her feelings of 'curiosity'.

Although Lev did not have the mind-reading skills of a saint, he quickly sensed her expression and spoke.

"This is what the saint gave me."

Lev, who followed Soira's party, had his eyes set on the trap disarming kit that Soira submitted.

Although she wondered why she wanted an item that was sold in the village, she had no particular reason to save it, so she willingly gave it to the hero party to gain their favor.

"Yes. But what is this like?"

"Look Carefully. If you do it like this... "

As Lev manipulated the kit, the lid opened, revealing the tools inside.

They were ordinary tools, no different from other kits.

However, Lev grabbed the tools and scribbled them in the air for a moment.

– Click!

The sound of a lock being engaged was heard, and the box in the distance opened of its own accord.

"... !"

"How is it. "Isn't it fun?"

Lev looked like a child who had successfully pulled off a prank.

Then, like a child showing off a toy, she started explaining without even asking.

"This is an item that scouts like me really want. It looks like an ordinary trap disarming kit, but it's actually called a remote trap disarming kit."

"Remote? That means... "

"Okay. Using this, you can disarm the trap from a distance. Even if you accidentally trigger a trap, you won't die. What do you think, is it worth coveting?"

But I won't give it back. Lev grinned. Seaʀch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Was it such a great item...? "

Since the saint was not a scout, she did not have much sympathy for Lev, who spoke arrogantly. She just thought that she should give more in return to Soira Party for giving her such an amazing item.

Even though Sora didn't know how great that item was, the saintess's conscience wasn't comfortable enough to swallow it up and say it was already a done deal.

It didn't really matter to her that she had given it to Lev for free. From the beginning, it was a gift to win the favor of the hero party, and the more expensive the item, the easier it will be to achieve.

Lev opened the box with a fuss and a book came out.

Considering that it had been stored in a box, it had not been stored very delicately, and it was tattered as if it could be torn apart at any moment.

And the contents.

"It's about the devil."

The saint declared as soon as she read the first page.

"Saint, can you read?"

Serena asked.

Because it was just a book written in an unknown language to her.

"It's not like I can read it. However, I remember what the word 'devil' looks like, so I can tell that it appears several times."

"The devil... "Maybe it's an important clue."

"Yes. So let's explore further. "There might be a box that the advance team didn't find like now."

The hero party followed the saintess' words and thoroughly searched even the parts that had already been investigated.

As a result, she was able to find one more box until the sun set. Unfortunately, there was only junk inside.

And when the exploration of the cave was completed, the hero party confirmed that the sun had completely set and began preparing for camping.

Since there was no wizard, we had prepared enough items that could be used as light sources, so there was no problem preparing even in the dark.

"Gaidon is excluded from the watch."

There was no one who refuted the words of the warrior Serena.

Even though he was recovered through sacred arts, Gaidon was seriously injured, and it was to save the party's life.

"Okay. "I will stand up to Gaidon's share."

"Lev you? "What kind of whim is this?"

"No, Silphiere. Since there is a beautiful woman like a saint after all this time, why are you holding back when you say you want to score some points?"

"You know that's rude, right? Lady, I'm sorry our party members are like this... "

The saintess smiled and told Sil Pierre, who sincerely apologized, that it was okay, but she was inwardly embarrassed.

Because she sensed her 'sexual desire' from Lev who was trying to impress her.

In other words, that man is truly flirting with him!

She had met countless men who had sexual desires for her, but this was the first time she had shown it so honestly to herself, a saint.

The saint who could read emotions was ultimately a flower in a greenhouse living in a temple.

Even though it was not pure, the saintly woman's heart pounded as she received such a direct appeal for the first time.

... That's it. I had no intention of leaving any room.

Unfortunately, Lev was not to her saintly taste.

She thought she would sleep with the tent tightly zipped up tonight.
