Chapter 131: Guide (Bonus)

"Nhnn..." The nun was letting out a small yet erotic moan and gradually opening her eyes.

"It seems you have woken up." Nathan smiled. He had positioned himself on the opposite side of the fire, so she couldn't do anything to him unless she wanted to burn herself in this purple-colored fire.

The nun tilted her head to the side. When she saw Nathan, she couldn't help but rise from the ground. "Ah?"

"You collapsed earlier," Nathan casually explained.

Before answering him, she looked around before examining her body and found out that Nathan hadn't done anything other than helping her.

With a deep breath, she regained her composure and asked, "Did you help me?"

"Yeah."

"Thank you for helping me. I thought I was going to die."

"No problem." Nathan nodded, waiting for the woman to explain the trial.

"I..." She looked down, feeling troubled.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. I can't really trouble you any longer." She shook her head while waving her hands. She stood up and said, "I don't have anything to repay you right now."

"That's fine. I might not be reliable, but I'm a summoner. It's rare to see a nun going to this kind of place, so I'm kind of curious about it. Why don't you share it with me and we can call it even?" Nathan asked, while adding inwardly, 'Just give me the freaking trial.'

She contemplated for a moment before asking, "You are a summoner?"

"I am a student from the Frexia Academy."

"Oh!" She nodded. Although hesitant, she still shared the problem. "To be honest, the reason I'm here is to fight against sand bandits. I fought them but ended up getting outnumbered and was forced to flee. I managed to escape, but..."

"This is..." The angel sucked a cold breath while the fallen angel hugged herself. "This is such a pleasant divinity."

Sera's expression turned solemn, as if she had made her resolve. She lowered her head. "I apologize for not introducing myself earlier. My name is Serafina Dialanta. I'm thankful for your help. Not only do you save my life, but you also even heal their wounds.

It might be shameless of me to ask my savior, but can you please help me?"

Nathan nodded. "I'd like to hear the explanation first."

"Yes." She nodded. "There is a bandit stronghold not far from here. They have been terrorizing this desert for a while. That's why I come here to destroy the bandit stronghold and capture them if possible."

"A bandit, huh?" Nathan frowned.

"Indeed. The bandit has around 70 people. However, all of them are just normal people except for the leader and the vice leader. If we can defeat them, no other bandits will dare to resist."

"Two summoners. Are they strong?"

"The vice leader is a former student of a summoner academy, but he has never advanced to the second year. I have fought against him, but I believe I can defeat him. The problem is the leader.

"The leader is a strong summoner with 5 familiars under his command. He himself is quite powerful, as he is the reason the sand bandits can operate in this area and the authorities choose to turn a blind eye to them."

Nathan crossed his arms. "That's hard. First of all, even though they are normal people, their number still poses a threat to us. If we both combine our strength, there is a chance we will defeat the leader, but the problem will be the vice leader."

"Yes. That's the biggest problem."

"And you are planning to stop them by yourself instead of asking for reinforcement from the church?"

"That's..." She scratched the back of her head.

'Yep. She can't explain it. This just confirms that this is only a trial. There is no need for such a deep background story since the trial is clearly for me to defeat these bandits. The problem is their number and strength.' Nathan fell into deep thought.

"Actually, I'm currently going toward a village not far from here where I'm supposed to learn more information about these bandits. Will you follow me?" She asked.
