Chapter 212 - Saintess Angela (2/2)
Saintess Angela. Our very own talented witch. She is in her 30, with long black hair and a blue eyes like that of the ocean. Her fair skin with some freckles in her face just add to her charm. I might be the connection between our god to all of the followers, but when it comes to managing the old follower, as well as the Achalasia Externa, she can be said as the figure leader. She handles things on the surface while I am responsible for what happen behind the scenes
(Not to mention, her power as a witch is truly phenomenal. I can say she actually far surpassed the first witch) [Agnes]
”Now then, how about we go upstairs. I'll introduce you to the saint and the holy palace prince” [Angela]
”Really!” [Old follower A]
”What a lucky day!” [Old follower F]
And they quickly left. Whether that is a lie so that she can use them for her own experimentation or she's actually feeling generous, that I do not know. She is after all, a saintess. Even though she isn't recognize as one by Goddess Achalasia, I'm sure once our times come, she will receive the title from a better god
”So, a spectacular failure” [Agnes]
”Failure. Motra. Fail” [Zin]
”Apart from my true identity are now known and we lost Drant, I said we have ourselves a win as well, don't you agree” [Motra]
”That indeed. To think that kid is the one taking care of all of them” [Agnes]
Again, just like before. The original ten heroes were taken cared by the traveler king when they're all orphans who have lost their homes and families. Not to mention, I just noticed something. To think that Ash in Estel might be the same Ash I killed back then when he was still an infant. Truly, him receiving the blessing from God of Death and Goddess Achalasia is no coincidence.
(Vincent, Maria, and now Ash. You guys keep on coming aren't you) [Agnes]

[The Curse land]
[Saint Louis point of view]
I had crossed the dungeon, and now, here I am, at the curse land. A land once rule by the Angel king, with the name and title, Seraph. When Saintess Rumia told me regarding what happen at Estel, and that there's an angel which called himself as Seraph, I was shocked beyond disbelief as I thought Seraph was just a myth.
”The ruin doesn't hold a single clue. It's ancient after all” [Saint Louis]
I thought of exploring a nearby ruin for a bit, hoping to find a clue or two, but this once settlement for the angelic doesn't provide any clue for me.
”I should start moving as well. I need to ”visit” them after all” [Saint Louis]
I can handle the saint of old follower as well as the prince of holy palace, but something about Saintess Angela give me a creep. Something, but what is it. I can't even remember properly the conversation that I had with her, even though the conversation with those other two are still vivid

I can hear some voices. I wonder who? It's behind this large house. Better observe them first
”So, there wasn't anything to help the Mermaid king here?” [Mermaid A]
”No. There isn't.” [Fairy A]
”The holy beast of water, Ice Dragon Reshir doesn't response to us, and Mahsuri is... So does the blue hair little girl we encounter at Rock and Sea dungeon once. Looks like she still hasn't realized who she really is” [Mermaid B]
”Huh? A human! Run!” [Fairy B]
”WAIT!” [Saint Louis]
I try to reach for them, but they simply disappear inside the well. Even the fairies. Strange. Just what manner of power does they employ? I can't sense any barrier nor any mana, and I'm sure it will be pointless for me to jump inside this well, as I don't have any mean to catch up to them
Still, what with their conversation just now? Is something happening inside the Mermaid Kingdom? There have been multiple reports especially by the adventure guild about the appearance of strange mermaids all over Achalasia. But the mermaids just now seem normal
”Oh Goddess Achalasia, I have a bad feeling about all of this something big is happening. So, O Goddess, Please guide us all” [Saint Louis]
