*************************************

Since yesterday, Delia seems to have a lot of work according to the map. Victor takes her away from the place to rest, but I'm afraid it's not enough. She's had a peaceful life for a long time. She may be used to seeing blood, but I don't want her to change so much because of that.

'Why are there two more blue dots accompanying her? Well, for now, I'll update Alessia's status.'

Although I don't know what happened to her while she teamed up with the 3 annoying beauties, I can deduce it.

[Alessia Addari] [Adventurer Lvl 29] [Warrior Lvl 29] [Lancer Lvl 21] [Leader Lvl 25]

[Alessia Addari has 17 points free]

'God... This girl was slaying dragons? Just how many monsters did she defeat to have so many free points? Even her Lancer class leveled up, and she hasn't fought with a spear in her hands!'

Instead of using the points in her status, maybe it's best to add more classes. That way, her points will increase even more in the future.

[Alessia Addari] [Adventurer Lvl 29] [Knight Lvl 1] [Sword King Lvl 1] [Warrior Lvl 29] [Lancer Lvl 21] [Leader Lvl 25]

HP=18 || MP=1

Agility=29 || Strength=22

Intelligence=28 || Luck=14

[Resistance]

Physical=8 || Magic=0

Poison=0 || Curse=0

To add the fifth and sixth classes, it took 18 points. I subtracted one point from her Luck to do so. As a result [Knight] and [Sword King] were added.

For now I won't exchange her Adventurer class for Great Adventurer. I've been having suspicions for a long time, but...

What if the class levels also influence the attributes?

I know they increase the skill respective to their function. For example, the Lancer class increases the spear skills, but...

What if it affects the attribute strength, intelligence, and the other stats in a certain way?

I say this because, since I removed my Adventurer and Warrior classes from my status, I have felt different. It's a strange feeling, I can't say for sure. That's why I won't try it with Alessia if I'm not sure of the drawbacks.

'Since I own the User Interface, I will be my own guinea pig.'

[Masochist Lvl 10]

Of course, let's not forget her Masochist level which, while it doesn't give any points, it's still just as important!

'Ahh. It's a pity I can't increase its level as much as I did when we lived in the capital. At that time, I had a lot of free time. After all, now that I have two women, the time has to be split evenly. And Melisa… I don't know. Our relationship is strange.'

"Mmm"

Alessia is still sleeping next to me. But since she opened her eyes a bit, I'll take the opportunity to say goodbye now.

"Alessia, I'm leaving. I might not be back in the night."

"Mm? Mn" she nodded.

Her adorable act made me smile. But although I also felt like squeezing her cheeks, I won't, as I may wake her up completely.

After getting out of bed, I removed two magic items from my inventory and left them on the bedside table, along with a note. I am sure they will come in handy. And, when I have free time, I will use them as well.

Only then did I head for the bathroom.

"I seriously must find out what technology is used to make the water come out of the faucet."

After trying the charms of bathing in a shower, the buckets with water look primitive in comparison.

'Should I travel to my home in the capital when I want to bathe? Hm, no.. It's too much work.'

"Appear" I waved my hand.

The next second, an illusory door appeared in front of me. I can rarely show off in activating it this way. It's a bit annoying to have to pretend to recite the spell every time, but it can't be helped.

With my Perception Inhibitor in half power, my mask, and dark suit, I personify the Golden Archer. It's been a long time... I missed dressing like this.

Once all preparations were completed, I crossed the illusory gate.

Currently, I am in the forest near the rear army. After walking for a few minutes, I appeared in the army. Thanks to the insignia on my shoulder, no one asked questions.

Walking quietly among the sea of soldiers, at some point I arrived in front of Delia. She is riding my silly horse and smiling happily. It must be fun to ride in her spare time.

Seeing her, I can't help but think that her Saint aura is growing day by day. Even more as many people raise their arms and point in her direction.

'This is strange. They shouldn't be able to recognize her. If it weren't for the multiple classes above her head and the custom marker on my map, even I would have trouble recognizing her, thanks to her Perception Inhibitor.'

"Look! There's the combat nun!"

"Combat? It must be false. I told you not to believe the words of strangers. Even more so when it is a rumor so..."

"It is not false."

The one who interrupted the conversation between the two men was a beautiful woman.

"I was present on the scene, and I saw everything with my own eyes"

"Are you telling me that a nun blocked a magic arrow with her spear? And not only that, but that she skillfully protected herself from a mana sword?"

"It happened just as your companion mentioned. I assure you."

The woman's calm and sincere attitude made everyone's eyes widen.

'Can a religious person really fight at close range?' probably they were thinking that. But that's not what's important.

"What did you say?"

I approached the woman.

"Who are you?"

"Answer me!!! What did you just say? Tell me everything, and don't you dare lie to me or else you will be sorry!"

"!!!"

My threat made the woman back up a step. She wanted to call for help, but everyone turned away from us, implying that they wouldn't interfere.

"Calm down, it's okay. I'll tell you..."

I tried to listen to her story calmly at first, but at no time I couldn't stop clenching my hands and teeth.

"That's all I know..."

As soon as she finished her story, I walked over to Victor. And, the moment Delia got distracted looking away…

'Activate profile [Strength]'

"Ack! Agh!"

I strangled Victor with one hand.

"Why do you think Emilia has a guard? To pretend?! To play a role game?!!"

"Agh! Agk!"

He tried his best to get my hands off his neck.

But he couldn't.

"I'll make something clear to you. I don't care who's in the right or who's in the wrong. If anything happens to Emilia... you and all those who witnessed it... will regret it. Believe me."

Victor: "!!!!"

Just a little more strength is enough to assassinate him, and I really want to do it…But I won't.

"Cof! Cof!"

I'm being controlled by my emotions, and I realize it. That's why I released him. Because I'm afraid that an outburst on my part could easily break his neck.

"Tell me your side of the story!"

After coughing and catching his breath, he got up from the floor. I'm sure anyone else in his place would draw his weapon and point it at me, but he didn't do that. Quite on the contrary, he spoke to me as if nothing had happened.

The keywords that will get me involved in a colossal mess were...

"... That elf was a spy of the Drial Cenit kingdom. Everything hints that he was not a sacrificial pawn, or at least he was until he witnessed Miss Emilia's miraculous healings..."

Elves can communicate with mother nature, and she is emotionless and neutral. It is very likely that the elf got insider information about Delia and decided to carry out a terrorist attack.

"But it did not only happen to Miss Emilia. Many simultaneous attacks against priests also happened yesterday. It's my humble opinion, but... something big will happen soon."

"Like what?"

Victor shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"Hm... Is it you, by any chance?"

Behind our backs, a melodic voice was heard, and as I turned around, I saw an adorable fox girl getting off a horse. Of course, it's still hard to recognize her because of the magic item she's carrying.

"It's me, Emilia"

"I missed you!"

Delia hurriedly runs to me and hugs me.

I was a little surprised, but then I smiled and stroked her head.

"May I ask?" Victor pointed his finger toward my embrace with Delia.

I quickly understood what he meant.

"We are family," I replied.

Victor: "!!!!"

'- Are they brothers??! I see… They are both skilled fighters due to their parents' teachings. No wonder they possess so much confidence in each other despite being of different races. The Saint must have found them when they were young, and that's why she took them under her care.'

I feel that Victor is misunderstanding us, but I'm not entirely sure, and I don't really care. This guy has a few expressions, after all.

"Shall we go?"

"Mn!" Delia nodded.

We head to her personal tent while I lead my silly horse by the reins. Inside, I cast the Space Travel magic without anyone seeing me and, once the illusionary door appeared, I entered the horse by strength.

Delia walked after us after saying goodbye to Victor and the new guards, who, by the way, are two women.

"Ah, the Solitary Temple. I missed this cold but quiet atmosphere!"

She opened her arms wide, as if wanting to embrace the scenery. Instead, I couldn't admire the scenery at all because, when she raised her arms...

I managed to see the holes in her cloak.

"Why is your cloak damaged? Did something happen?"

I already know the third party's version, Victor's version, and now Delia's version is missing.

"Ah… This? Hm... Nothing special."

'This fox girl...'

Apparently, I'm going to have to spank her to make her learn.

"Aha… are you sure?" I hugged her.

"M- Mn, yes" She looked to the side.

'Well, you made me Delia.'

Delia: "!!!!"

Without hesitation, I took her tails hostage. And I gave them all my love by caressing them without holding back.

"Ahn… No... Emir... Haa Nn..."

"My silly girl, do you think you could hide the truth from me?"

Delia: "!!!!"

I applied the laws of a professional interrogator. First the beating, then the interrogation. Even when Delia wanted to confess, I kept stroking her tails to my heart's content. She could only squeeze my clothes and make strange sounds near my ear.

Sometime later, I released her.

"Bad boy, bad boy!" she pointed her finger at me.

'Ah, Delia suffering from injustice is also adorable.'
