A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 264: Summary of Cultists (6)

At that time, Wirdi cursed his master to give me as a gift.

I\'ll skip the details and just conclude that it was this saint who lifted the curse placed by Wirdi.

The first time she met Asil was when she was going to meet the saint.

I haven\'t seen her since, let alone heard from her, and she never imagined we\'d meet in a place like this.

That\'s right, when she chose the quest to subdue cultists at the Adventurer\'s Guild, she chose it after recognizing that it was a request from the church where the saintess was located.

Still, she just chose one from a place where she knew someone, and she didn\'t choose it because she was particularly close to the saint.

No, can we say that we are friends just because we know the saint, whose face it is usually difficult to even see? Anyway.

Given the circumstances, it seems like the reason the paladins arrived so quickly had something to do with the saint, but why?

"Why is this person here... It\'s the same expression."

"Oh, no. Holy woman. It\'s not like that."

Hehe. "It\'s a joke."

The saint covered her mouth and smiled softly.

"I heard that there were people who accepted requests that were difficult to resolve, so I looked into it and I thought, \'Isn\'t that the name you remember? It happened to be in a nearby city."

"It\'s an exquisite coincidence."

"Yes? I think so too."

The saintess smiles again.

However, we were still unable to hide our embarrassment.

This saint, was she such a friendly and smiling person?

The time we met wasn\'t very long, but it was very serious and deep... I thought she was that kind of person.

The last time I saw her was more than half a year ago, so it\'s not surprising what happened to her.

But maybe this has changed too much.

It seems like it has a sexy vibe somehow.

In my experience, I often experienced something impressive when the mood changed so quickly in such a short period of time.

For example, you find someone you like, you get a boyfriend, you break off her virginity, etc.

But, hey, could a saintly woman do that?

When I saw her before, she was the type of person whose work was her lover, but she probably wouldn\'t have time to meet a man.

A need arises for a saint, so she goes out with others to do external work, but by chance she ends up alone with a man, and while waiting for rescue, they gradually become closer and closer, which develops into romantic feelings. Unless there\'s a novel-like story, that wouldn\'t happen. .

Even when I think about it, it makes no sense.

Well, this world is a game, and if I just write down what I play, I could easily write a novel...

Wait, is there a surprising possibility?

Anyway.

"Actually, I had something else to say. But... "

The saint said only that and looked around her.

"This doesn\'t seem like a good place for conversation. If it\'s okay, can I go to the city and talk to you?"

The surroundings were chaos, to put it in a good way, and a mess to put it in a bad way.

The paladins were scattered here and there, searching for places where there might be remaining cultists, and the cultists who had already been caught and bound were pouring out all kinds of curses from their mouths.

Then, those who crossed the line were hit by the Holy Knight and fainted.

This place, full of busy people and swearing, was not a good place to talk about important things.

She had no reason to reject the saint\'s words.

I have to go back to the city anyway and report the completion of the quest to the Adventurer\'s Guild.

It\'s nothing to be concerned about having more companions along the way.

After the Holy Knights took over the cultist altar and the cultist sleeping in the basement below it, we returned to the city with the saint.

Fortunately, I was able to get a horse and ride it when I returned.

This was because while searching the village, they found a great horse that was not suitable for the size of the village.

They must have robbed a passing traveler not long ago. Let\'s convey our condolences to the travelers who were robbed.

There was just one problem: Asil did not know how to ride a horse.

I have experience riding horses in the game, and Flora is royalty, so it goes without saying.

However, the only experience Asil has with horseback riding is during a school trip to Jeju Island when he was a student. Or maybe there wasn\'t even that.

In the end, Asil had to sit behind Flora.

The sight of Asil sitting behind the very small Flora, hugging her waist and trembling, was even a little cute.

Later, I thought it would be better to run, so I got off, called a sylph, and ran myself.

That was all that happened on the way back.

It means that we returned safely without any incident.

◆

A branch of the church established in the city.

Even though it was a denomination, it was not possible to build a temple in every city, so the size of this branch was about the size of a small church.

"Let me greet you again. Nice to meet you. Although I am lacking, I am serving as a saint of the church."

"Ah, it\'s us... "This is Soira."

Asil and Flora followed me and introduced themselves.

Since there was nothing new, after a short self-introduction, the saint went straight to the main topic.

"Actually, what I\'m going to tell you today concerns Miss Flora."

"Yes? Me?"

Flora, who was singled out by her saint, had no clue and could only stare at her pink eyes.

"To me? Uh, uh, um... "

What is so important that a saint should come and talk to her in person?

Flora whined and thought for a while, and then her expression brightened as if she finally remembered something.

"Ah! If... "

The saint quietly nodded her head and said.

"News has arrived. "Of the Kingdom of Veil."

Let\'s look back on our memories for a moment.

A request from the church that formed a party with Asil.

After completing the request to clear a dungeon, we received the right to request one request per person from the saintess as a reward.

I asked for a curse, and Asil said she wanted to talk to God.

And Flora, who had nothing else to wish for at the time, made this request after much deliberation.

\'If you hear any news from the Kingdom of Veil, please let me know.\'

Then, the saint said that it was a courtesy to the Kingdom of Veil, which fought against the Demon King\'s army until the end, and that she would of course listen to that request, so if there was another request next time, she could talk about it then.

What the saint is about to talk about now must be the answer to this request.

However, unlike what we promised at this time, we never obtained information through the church, because information about the Kingdom of Vale was very easy to obtain.

To be precise, this is where the Kingdom of Vale was located.

Even though war has become a part of daily life to the extent that there is no generation that has not experienced war after nearly 100 years of war, information about the front lines is always a hot topic.

The Demon King\'s Army, which unreasonably destroyed the Kingdom of Vale, and the Human Allied Forces, which disposed of the unreasonable Demon King\'s Army and regained the land even though the kingdom was destroyed.

Since then, the area that was once the Kingdom of Vale has become a front line where people eat and eat each other.

So, we were able to figure out how much had been restored or where it had been captured based on rumors alone.

This means that there was no need to rely on the religious denomination for information.

So then, why does the saint have to come to see her in person and give her information?

There could be many reasons.

Whether it\'s hidden information that isn\'t known simply through rumors, or up-to-date information where promptness is important, or...

"A survivor of the Vale royal family has been found. Flora Vale, your siblings."

"Yes... ?"

Such as important information that must be reported to Flora right away.

"Yes... ?!"

Flora couldn\'t believe her ears.

It was the same with us. Because that was something I could never have imagined.

She continued, saying that it is natural for a saint to be surprised.

"The information itself has been in for a while, but it took some time to verify. But it\'s solid information."

"..."

Flora lowered her head and said nothing.

What kind of expression is she making? She was curious, but she knew it was an area she couldn\'t touch just for interest.

But it is also true that if things continue like this, the conversation will not proceed. Instead, I took over the conversation.

"Can I hear specifically what the situation is?"

"Sure. First... "

The story the saint told was as follows.

The front line is a place of chaos where all kinds of adventurers, mercenaries, and armies from various countries gather.

Recently, there was a mercenary group that stood out among the group, and it was rumored that the leader of that mercenary group had pink hair.

Bright pink hair is evidence of the Veil royal family.

... It\'s close to that, but it\'s only extremely rare, and that doesn\'t mean pink hair doesn\'t exist outside the Vale royal family.

In the first place, colors look different depending on the lighting.

Therefore, after verifying the accuracy of the information several times, it was concluded that it must be Flora\'s family.

"Detailed... "

It was then that Flora, who seemed to have calmed down in her own way, opened her mouth.

Although her eyes were slightly red, Flora spoke with a determined expression.

"Please give me more information. First, where is that mercenary group?"
