Chapter 203 – For Elise

Three days had passed since the investigation of the slums began. In the meantime, I changed my clothes to something shabby and dug into their ecology, and I also tried to approach them wearing normal everyday clothes.

There was no particular result.
I just collected a few more keywords called ‘Eternal Life’.

In this way, from morning till noon, he spent his time inquiring in the slums, and after that he went to the library to search for knowledge about the religions of the other world. Well, the rest of my daily life was the same as always.

When you enter the dorm, the three of you have sex and things like that.
What else is there to do in my free time in another world?

Cloudy was reluctant to be a warlock, and Winia started going to the Mage Tower to learn new magic, so she naturally continued to go alone.

I went out alone this morning.
The first place I stopped by was the Adventurer’s Guild.

Every morning I’m looking to see if Lina is there or not. Since he was a pickpocket in the slums, he must be familiar with the geography of the place. That was when I went inside the guild.

Upon entering, I glanced around and saw a short nun with red hair sitting at her table, dressed in familiar attire.

“…Elise?”

Feeling transcendent joy, I screamed hysterically.

“Elise!
“…Saints?”

At my shout, all eyes of the guild turned towards me. At the same time, Ellie also looked back at me. Elise was right! My Divine Friend! Hitting her ground, her flying body her shot towards her like her rocket.

“What what what what what!!! Why did you come again!!! Nice to meet you!!!”

Holding on to both ends of the table in front of her, he pressed her face her and spoke explosively. Elyze, taken aback, replied by looking left and right at her.

“Hey, you look like you’re in a good mood… ?”
“Then I met you and it can’t be good!!!!!”
“That, that’s… So…”

— Murmur. Perhaps it was because of our loud voice, the other adventurers around us started talking among themselves as they glared at us. At that, Elise’s face turned a little red.

It’s a bit difficult to express my joy here.

“Hey, let’s go out.”
“Stop, saint, wait…!”

He immediately took her hand her and came out. Elise trusted herself to me as if she was being dragged by force. As if kidnapping, she dragged her a short distance from the guild.

“Hey, how long has it been? It’s been a while? Aren’t you happy to see me?”
“…Uh, uhm. Of course, nice to meet you, saint. It seems like it’s been about a month… If you can let go of your hand and talk to me…”
“Ah, you’re still holding it. Hey, has it already been a month?”

I let go of Elise’s hand hers. I’m coming over with something now, and I really have a lot to share. Such luck! I don’t care about Lina anymore! Because as long as Elise is there, it’s no different than ready-made rice!

“Did you eat breakfast before that?”
“I haven’t eaten yet, but…”
“Then let’s eat first. Well, is there anything you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you!”

It was Elise who was taken aback by my intense expression of affection. She interrupted Elise, saying that this time she had to buy it herself, that she got it the other day and she couldn’t do that, she said.

“Wait a minute.”

Because there’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time.

“If I stretch out my arm saying out loud Divine, then you stretch out your hand saying out loud friend. Okay?”

If you make a cross with your outstretched arms, your friendship is complete!

“Yes? What is that…”
“Then shall we begin?”

Ignoring the confused Elise, I took a deep breath.
Breath taken to the limit, lungs swollen!

Pop it!

“

The eyes of the passers-by began to flock to this place at the tremendous performance, as if a bomb was exploding. Elise struggled halfway and tried to stop me.

“Stop, saint! Please lower your voice a little…!”

However.

It doesn’t work.

Don’t give in, don’t hesitate, don’t hesitate.
Katt Kim is such a man.

“D-byeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

I screamed in succession and stretched out my arms like a frightened mandragon at a horror movie. I could see that Elise’s face was getting hot every minute.

Hurry up!

Making a cross with me, Elise!

There’s only one way to stop me…!

“That, that. That…”
“Debyeeeee!!!!!!!!!!”
“F, F. Friend, dee…”

In the end, Elise, whose face was as red as her hair, reluctantly cried out in a crawling voice and stretched out her arms. She crossed her arms and made a cross, but she had n’t yet reached the point where her soul her would resonate.

Soul is not enough…!

“More, louder! Our friendship isn’t like that! Again! Deviceeeeein!!!”
“F-Friend, hehe…!”
“Still not enough! Again! Deviceeeeein!”
“Friends yew!!!!”

Feel good now!
Elise’s face was on the verge of exploding!

More Dynamite!

“Good! Very good! That’s the momentum! This time it’s going well!!!”
“Are you doing it again?!”
“Debyeeeee!!!!!!!!!!”
“I-Stop it now! Everyone is staring at me…!”
“Divine!!!!!!”
“F-Friend, hehe…!!!”
“That’s it!

ㅡWorst!

A true friendship was thus completed.

I looked at Elise with a determined heart for a while and assumed a cross posture. Elise, who had completely blushed, looked really cute when she mumbled something and averted her gaze.

After how much time had passed, Elise, who had finally calmed down in the silence, opened her mouth.

“Whoa… Boo, it’s embarrassing. How could you do something like this in the morning…”
“Well, how is it? Nice to meet you. Aren’t you happy?”
“Of course, I’m glad to see you, but it’s better to refrain from doing anything that might be rude to others.”
“Shiba, my heart hurts so much. Elise was disappointed. Is our friendship like that!”
“That, that! That’s not what I meant!”
“No kidding! We’re best friends!”
“…”

Like a cute guy.

Anyway, I had a lot to talk about with Elise.

The recent situation, the reason I came back to Isvant, and even the Eternal Island, which I am currently investigating. Rather than doing this here, it would be better to talk while eating nearby.

I mean, I didn’t even eat breakfast.

“Let’s go get something to eat. I’ll buy it for you. Don’t worry about the last one. I didn’t buy it for you to eat. Oh, and there are so many things to talk about… I’m curious as to why you’re here. Oh, that’s what I said while eating for the first time.” It will work. Let’s go.”
“I can still receive grace again…”
“It’s okay! We’re divine!!!! We’re friends!!!!”
“Oh, I feel very ashamed of being a saint today…!”

That way, we went to a nearby restaurant. Elise hesitated, saying that it couldn’t be like that again, but there’s no way! She immediately ordered two servings of what I wanted to eat.

As she sat in the seat, the tension that had soared also calmed down in its own way.

Catching the atmosphere, Elise put her hand on her chest and exhaled.

“Whoa, I think the speed is too fast, saint. Please calm down a bit.”
“I just calmed down. I just said it was because I was so happy.”
“…So do I. And for meals… I’ll be thankful as well.”
“Draw, draw.”

She waited for her meal to be served.

First of all, as she was about to open her mouth, Elise spread her palms and said as if to calm her beast.

“Saints, please make a promise. I will not suddenly make a loud noise. I understand the church members’ joy, and I feel the same way, but I don’t think it’s a good idea to make loud noises even at dinner. “
“No, I’ve already calmed down. You can rest assured.”
“Then I will believe you.”

Hearing her confirmation her, she laughed.
With a smile like a girl of her age.

“Okay, then what shall we talk about… Did you come from afar this time?”
“First of all, I have to explain it. Didn’t you explain that the other day the saint destroyed the cultist ritual site in the city’s culverts?”
“It was.”

When she went to catch the kobold queen, she had told the story to Elise. What could have happened to that She hasn’t even bothered since she reported it to the church once. She then used up her advanced holy water.

“When I told the story to the church, I was ordered to investigate and come. So, after arriving last night, I was looking for an adventurer’s guild in the morning to see if I could meet the saints.”
“The timing was a bit right. Well, nothing else happened?”
“Nothing special happened. I was just taking a break at church, so there was nothing special. And it seems that the kobold queen was also handled well. All of this is thanks to the saints.”

Then the meal came out.

It was a high-protein, high-fat diet accompanied by hearty meat. Elise thanked me again and waited for me to taste it first.

As she ate, she resumed her story.

“It’s because of me. If you look closely, there are more areas where I got help from you.”
“Hehe. You’re humble to the saints.”
“It can’t be. Anyway, Elise. I have something to tell you.”
“What are you talking about?”

She put the fork down.

“Do you know that eternal life is also?”
“…Eternal life, do you mean?”
“Looking at the reaction, it seems like you don’t know.”
“Ummm…Yes. I’ve never heard of that.”
“I’m looking into it these days.”

A few days ago, I briefly explained to Elise about the immortality of the slums I was researching. He said he was commissioned by a black magician to pursue traces of impure elements suspected of being cultists.

“Anyway, Eternal Life also seems to have something to do with the cultists of that time. From what I’ve seen, that’s for sure.”
“…”

At those words, Elise’s face her turned quite serious.

“It sounds like there is a possibility that cultists… Have infiltrated the city.”
“To sum it up. Well, what I want to say is, if you’d like to do some research with me. To be honest, I’ve been having a hard time researching a religion I don’t know what it is .”

ㅡBudbubububububu.
Her hand holding the fork was shaking.

“…Then Saint-sama has been investigating all this time alone to find out the cultists hiding in the city…?”
“That’s how it works.”
“This, how godly!”

Elise jumped up and said.

“I help! Of course I have to help! How can I just watch when you are struggling alone! I’ll help you right away!”

Anger and joy. She burst into a mixture of her unknown emotions and vomited her words out with enthusiasm, almost in a fit of rage.

“Hey, Elise. Right now… I’m watching everything…”
“…Oh.”

Aggro was significant.
All eyes in the restaurant were drawn to it.

Feeling ashamed again, Elise shrank.

“Well… Anyway, I will help the saints as they deserve. If such a thing happens, do not have any burden and feel free to consult me. I will never ignore the saints who do good things.”
“As expected, we are divine friends!”

Elise, a low-ranking nun belonging to the Holy Cross Society! Her personality was so brilliant that I could n’t see the end of it!

With Elise, it wouldn’t be a problem to blow the heads of the 10 cultists hiding in her back alley her. Feeling her heart lighten, she gleefully bit off the meat.

“Yes! We are Divine Friends!”
“Then, let’s go investigate together right away!”
“Ohh! Great!”

After eating, we went outside.

“Then saint. Hurry up and guide me there…”
“Wait, Elise. Where are you staying?”
“Yes. It’s nearby.”
“Okay?”

I explained to Elise the history of her investigation so far.

She adds that we need to change our clothes in order to explore among ourselves. First of all, I dressed lightly, but Elise is in full-armed battle nun mode. The moment a nun like this came to the slums, it was clear that she would buy her body her, saying that she was a socialite and that everyone was that bastard.

“Certainly… There is a point. I need to change my clothes…”
“That’s right. Let’s change and go.”
“Saints, it’s a bit sinful to say, but I don’t have any private clothes.”
“What?!”

A girl in her prime has no clothes?!
I can’t tolerate that!!

“Such!!!!!!!!!! It’s ridiculous!!!!!!!!!! I’ll buy it! Let’s go!!!!!!”
“Ah, saint! Wait a minute! Didn’t you promise not to make a loud noise…!”
