Volume 1 - CH 1

Prologue

~Half a year ago~

On a single road in a remote area of a country.

The road is often traveled by peddlers on their way to other territories.

There, a group of people who were not peddlers was traveling along the road.

Dozens of armed soldiers surrounded the carriage, giving the impression that they were under full guard.

Even ordinary peddlers hire guards.

However, the group passing this road now was different and had a different air as well.

The carriage was glittering, colored in precious white and golden, looked divine, and the escort soldiers showed expert gait.

From an outsider's point of view, it would be easy to see that a very important person was riding inside the carriage.

When the people saw this, they showed interest, the nobles bowed, and the bandits ────

"Th, the bandits have appeareeeeeddd!!!"

────think that they're good prey.

"Hyahhaa!!!"

"That's the biggest one we've ever had here!"

"Take the women alive!"

The bandits appeared from the cliffs and attacked the group as they walked along a straight road with a great view.

They must have been planning an ambush. Their coordinated movements were as if they had been expecting the group to show up.

"All personnels, protect The Saintess!"

"""Roger that!"""

However, despite the sudden attack, the knights on the escort did not show any agitation and formed a protective perimeter around the carriage.

Whether it was a commission, or anything..... they don't know for sure, but the strong will to "protect at all costs" was still felt.

However, the number of bandits is more than three times that of dozens of knights.

Even though they were skilled knights, their numbers were at an overwhelming disadvantage. Moreover, the bandits appeared from the cliffs on both sides, and there was nowhere to run or hide.

The situation could be called the worst.

"I, I'll fight too!"

A girl jumped out of the carriage.

With her beautiful blond hair swept up, she stomped her trembling feet and said to the knights who were trying to protect her from the bandits who were about to attack her.

"No, Lady Saintess! Please take your leave!"

"Leave this to us and hurry up get out of here!"

"B, but!"

"With this difference in the number of people, we cannot control this place! Therefore, even Lady Saintess alone, you must run away!"

Right, An experienced knight will know immediately.

In this situation, they will never be able to defeat the bandits. They can't save themselves, but they might be able to save the saintess.

"I, I'm not going to leave you guys behind."

The girl called the saintess shouted bravely.

But she doesn't realize that this is a very foolish act.

"You guys, it's time to hunt!"

"""Hiyahhaaaaa!"""

Anyone can predict what will happen after.

"Damn, I thought there'd be a lot of women there because it's so gorgeous, ...... but there's only one woman, huh."

"But head! This girl's pretty well dressed!"

"And a lot of gold and decorations!"

A few moments later.

The jubilant voices of the bandits who had made this area their territory and had caused so much trouble in the country rang out.

"E, everyone......."

In addition, the girl's desperate voice was also echoing.

...... Well, that's not unreasonable. The reason is that the corpses of the knights who had protected her were rolling around.

The girl slumped down and desperately reached for the corpses.

A pale light leaked from her hand.

"I'm sure she's a priestess ──── by the looks of her, she's a high-ranking one."

The bandit called the head muttered at the girl's appearance.

The only one who emits a faint light is a priest or a healing magician. However, the girl in front of him was dressed differently from an adventurer.

Therefore, she must be a priestess.

"If she's a priest, we can sell her for a fair amount of money!"

"Well, the aristocrats of today want to own that kind of existence. ...... Or we could just blackmail the church into paying for her."

The head thinks.

The way to handle this girl.

Those who are captured by bandits, without exception, do not have a bright future.

She can be sold as a slave to some nobleman, become the plaything of bandits, ......or be killed.

Hence, he's troubled

Either way, it's enough for the bandits to throw a party.

(It's been a long time since we've had a top-grade....... It would be a shame to kill her.)

She looks pretty good. In addition to that, she's escorted by such a luxurious carriage────probably she is in a considerable position.

No bandit believes in the goddess.

Therefore, no matter what he does with the priestess in front of him, there is no resistance.

"Well, enough..... oi! Somebody take her!"

"Yess!"

With a signal from the head, one of the bandits reached out to the girl.

"Hii!"

The girl who had been desperately reaching for the corpse lying beside her earlier was frightened by the bandit's hand.

The girl knew what the bandits would do to her if they caught her.

She couldn't put any strength into her body.

She tried to scream, but her voice was choked and she couldn't speak.

"Head, can't we just play her first?"

"No, no. I'll play with that one first."

"Ee~i......, then after you?"

"......You can, as long as you don't break her."

"That's Head for us!"

The exchange made her even more terrified. She felt as if her own end was just around the corner.

And even more so when the bandit with the vulgar smile on his face reached out to her.

(Please save me, ...... Oh God!)

Her cry was directed to the heavens.

But no words came back from heaven.

But────

"Gather round and rob money and goods────That's Greed."

Suddenly, the bandit in front of her collapsed.

Unlike the knight who protected the girl by splashing blood and agony, he did not leave any scream.

"Wh, what the hell happened?"

The head of the bandit shouted out when he saw the scene.

In response, the stunned bandits began to panic at once.

"Asking others instead of trying to understand the scene that happened in front of you────Isn't that Sloth?"

the voice can be heard again.

But this time, everyone was not confused.

It was because the owner of the voice suddenly appeared in front of them, carrying a bloody sword.

"...... Y, you are?"

"...... Sorry I'm late."

Without saying his name, the boy gave the girl an apologetic, gently reassuring ...... and indescribable look.

The girl was puzzled.

How did the boy in front of her appear? Why did the man in front of her with the vulgar smile fall?

(C, could it be ...... that he is the Lord Hero sent by the God?)

Did he appear at God's sending because she had asked God for help?

......Well, that's not really the case.

But however, the boy's origins are irrelevant now.

It's the fact that he has appeared at this moment and is smiling kindly at her, that is what she needs to think about.

"Who the hell are you?"

The bandit's head raged.

No wonder. His men had been killed right in front of him.

He didn't know how or what happened, but it's clear that this boy in front of him did something.

That's why the head pointed the tip of the knife that he had in his pocket at the boy.

But the boy was undaunted.

With an irreverent, disgusted look in his eyes, he proudly defended the girl, and saying,

"There is no name for a fool covered in greed."

With that, the boy jumped at the group of bandits.

the synopsis:

"Say, Lady Saintess? When will you go home?"

"Fuee~? I won't go home as long as Julis is here, you know?"

In this world, magic has pervaded the world.

However, there was a boy who couldn't use magic and lived a normal life.

His name is Julis Anderberg.

He is the only son of a frontier lord, and will soon inherit the domain.

Although he has no magical talent, he nevertheless lived a life that was not ashamed of being an aristocrat.

...... Still, for a boy who cannot use magic, this world is stifling.

So, he thought.

"If I can't use magic, why not just use something else?"

Then, he devised a plan.

Unlike magic, which uses the magic power inside the body to interfere with the world, he uses the magic power in the air to interfere withーーーーmagiccraft.

Furthermore, he was able to master the magic related to the names of the seven deadly sins: pride, greed, jealousy, lust, wrath, gluttony, and sloth.

However, that was in his childhood.

Nowadaysーーーー

"Julis, please wake up! It's morning, it's morning already!"

"......Let me sleep for four more hours."

"Four hours is too much sleep!"

Thus, he began to lead a normal life.

However, it is far from normal. He's a nobleman, but there is something wrong with this routine.

"Cecilia......, you're a saintess, why are you allowed to be here?"

"It's okay! I want to be with Julis!"

A goddess who brings peace and blessings to the world.

And she's one of the highest priestesses of the church that serves her.

If there is one of her in the country, it is said to be a safe existence, but for some reason, she is in this remote region.

From an outsider's point of view, it's a bizarre sight. The surrounding aristocrats won't stay quiet.

One day, Julis and Cecilia were told by their father, the lord of the frontier, 

"You two are going to attend the magic academy."

"......I, can't use magic, though?"

This is the story of Julis, who can't use magic but is enrolled in the magic academy, and Cecilia a Saintess, who is the highest priestess, who are involved in various events at the academy!

"Magic is strong?...... Isn't that arrogant?"
