-Thump!

Ian’s sudden appearance caused everyone’s gaze to turn towards the door.

“!!”

The Priests, who were naked, were startled and instinctively covered their lower bodies.

Squeak.

“Haa…”

“W-What!”

The Priest who was lusting after Lena also froze, his waist still bent.

‘Disgusting.’

Ian frowned, having seen the explicit scene.

He had expected it before coming in, but seeing it in reality was different from imagining it.

Just then, one of the Priests quickly stepped forward and greeted Ian.

“Welcome. Did you perhaps come to enjoy this with us?”

The Priest’s finger pointed behind him.

Following the direction of his finger, Ian saw Lena, trembling beneath a man.

“Ugh… Heh… Goo…”

Her skin was covered in dried semen, and her whole body was red and blotchy. Even her stomach was slightly swollen.

‘It would be a disaster if she’s not in her right mind…’

Ian looked at her with worried eyes.

Of course, he wasn’t worried about Lena’s health.

‘My efforts might be in vain.’

He was concerned that he wouldn’t be able to extract the information he needed from her.

If Lena, the key to all the events, was already out of her mind, things would definitely go wrong.

As Ian stared at Lena without saying anything, the Priest scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

“Haha… I guess I asked a pointless question. The reason you came here is obvious. I tried it a little while ago, and it’s no joke. She has a pretty face, so she tastes good too. She resisted a bit at first, but after some education, she’s docile now.”

As he spoke, the Priest slowly began to lead Ian outside.

“Anyway… it would be better if you came back in a few hours. We were here first, enjoying ourselves. Keeping things in order is good for everyone, right?”

“Ha.”

To equate me with these fools who can’t control their lust.

Ian sneered at the Priest with a contemptuous expression.

“Do I look like a beast like you?”

“…Excuse me?”

Suddenly being insulted.

Only then did the Priests sense something was wrong and began to be wary of Ian.

“…Identify yourself.”

“Yeah. Now that I see it, you don’t look like you belong to the Temple?”

They belatedly realized that the clothes Ian was wearing were far from those of the Holy Knights or Priests.

“You don’t need to know about me.”

Of course, Ian had no intention of revealing his identity.

Instead, he mocked the Priests in the room.

“So, what you Priests, who are supposed to serve the Goddess, do is gang-rape women? How disgusting.”

“…We were just teaching a lesson to a bitch who was in league with the Demons. I don’t know how you got in here, but we have nothing to be ashamed of.”

A traitor who betrayed humanity and cooperated with the Demons.

They were originally destined to be executed.

Instead of immediately killing those who were not worth living, the Holy Kingdom had been using them as tools for the Temple people to relieve their sexual desires.

From the Priests’ point of view, it was nothing more than a righteous act of punishing evil.

They even considered it giving the Sinners a chance to atone for their sins against humanity with their bodies.

‘…Well, it’s not an entirely incomprehensible method of disposal.’

Ian completely understood the current situation through the Priest’s words and nodded.

“Using women related to Demons as tools to relieve sexual desires. An interesting method. Still, it’s not a pretty sight to see Priests gang-raping women to relieve their lust.”

“I told you, it’s none of our business what you think?”

“Hmm… I wonder why they considered it confidential when you’re so confident. They were desperately blocking access, saying outsiders were prohibited.”

“That’s…”

“Does the Holy Kingdom also capture Demon women and enjoy them like this? Just imagining it is horrifying.”

“…”

The Priests seemed speechless at Ian’s mockery and criticism.

“I’ll overlook your peculiar sexual preferences. I didn’t come here to have a debate about ethics. So…”

Ian stretched out his palm forward.

“Why suddenly your palm…”

“…M-Magic?!”

The Priests, noticing the signs of magic, hurriedly tried to defend themselves, but

“This crazy bastard!”

“Everyone, Divine law…”

-Thud.

-Thud.

Before they could properly react, they all collapsed on the spot.

Passing by the limp Priests, Ian walked up to Lena. And he kicked away the Priest who was attached to Lena.

-Thud.

As the heavy body of the Priest covering Lena disappeared, her even more miserable naked body was revealed.

‘They really did a lot.’

Ian shook his head and nudged Lena with his foot to wake her up.

“Hey. Wake up.”

“Ugh… Ah…”

But even in this situation, Lena didn’t regain consciousness and only groaned.

Ian had no intention of waiting for Lena to come to her senses.

So he used a slightly rougher method.

“Wake up.”

-Slap!

“Ugh?!”

Lena’s eyes snapped open at the force of the slap on her cheek.

“Fortunately, you haven’t completely lost it.”

“W-Who…”

Lena stared blankly at Ian, as if dumbfounded, but her eyes widened in an instant.

She recognized the identity of the man standing before her.

“You’re the one who attacked us in the garden back then…!”

“Be precise. You attacked first, not me. I was just exercising my right to self-defense. If I were the one attacking, you would all be buried in the cold ground by now.”

“Ugh…”

Unable to deny the truth, Lena couldn’t refute and only mumbled.

Eventually, Lena sighed and apologized to Ian.

“Hoo… What happened in the garden was clearly our fault. I’m really sorry.”

“Don’t worry. I’m used to the nonsense of ignorant people. But you’re in a terrible state.”

Ian pressed Lena’s protruding stomach with his palm.

-Press.

As if strongly gripping a water bottle with his hand, a whitish liquid spurted out of Lena’s vulva.

“Haa?!”

Lena’s back arched as if she felt even this as pleasure.

“I was dumbfounded when I first saw you trying to seduce the Hero with your body… It wasn’t long before you were abandoned by the Hero and became a real whore.”

“Heuh… Did you come here to make fun of me?”

Lena seemed dumbfounded by Ian’s sudden appearance and insults.

“I know you’re Ian, a Wizard from the Magic Tower. And that you’re the ‘Magic Tower Lord’s disciple’.”

“Oh. So you still have a brain to hear and think. I thought you were just a female with nothing but lust in your head.”

“…Tell me. Did you come here for my body like the others?”

Perhaps because she had been constantly violated by countless men, Lena’s eyes were filled with fear as she looked at Ian.

“Ha. I have no interest in a semen-soaked body that has been used by countless men and is now a rag. If I had, I wouldn’t have needed to knock out the Priests. I could have just raped you with them.”

“…You have such a lovely way of speaking.”

Lena reacted awkwardly to the harsh and even humiliating expression.

Still, it also implied that Ian’s purpose wasn’t her body, so she seemed slightly relieved.

“Enough with the nonsense. Are you in your right mind now?”

“I don’t feel good after being slapped and insulted… but I’m wide awake.”

“Good.”

Ian decided to get down to business.

“First of all, I came to help you.”

“R-Really? You’re going to help me?”

“Yes. Tell me everything you know, without leaving anything out.”

‘Finally, I can find out the truth.’

Ian waited for Lena’s answer with a bit of anticipation.

The incident involving the Pope and the Hero Party had turned not only the Great Temple but the entire Holy Kingdom upside down for days.

So even Ian, a third party, was curious about the truth.

And if that truth was a dagger to stab the Holy Kingdom and the Pope, as Annie had guessed… it would be perfect for him.

After a while, Lena’s mouth opened, as if she had been lost in thought.

“Before I tell you, I have a question. Ian, why did you come to help me? No matter how I think about it, there’s no reason for you to help me. And you even laid a hand on the Priests…”

Lena glanced at the Priests, who were lying unconscious like corpses.

Attacking Priests within the Holy Kingdom, especially inside the Great Temple, was generally tantamount to suicide.

“If it’s discovered that you attacked the Priests, we’re done for. You came to help me and caused an accident. What are you thinking?”

“You know I’m the Magic Tower Lord’s disciple, right? Do you think I can’t handle the aftermath of something like this?”

Ian had tremendous pride in his abilities.

‘The Priests won’t remember anything that happened today anyway.’

At least, he was confident that he wouldn’t be caught by the stupid Holy Kingdom guys.

“Don’t worry about unnecessary things and just answer my questions quickly.”

“Then tell me why you came to find me. There must be a reason why you became curious about the truth, right?”

“You don’t need to know that. Just answer what I ask.”

“…No.”

Ian was taken aback by Lena’s unexpected refusal.

“What? Do you not know what situation you’re in right now?”

“I know very well that the situation is the worst it can be. But I have no intention of following you obediently when I don’t know what intentions and purposes you have. I’m sick of being used.”

“To show me, who came to help you, such an attitude. You’re completely out of your mind.”

“That’s what I should be saying. I don’t want to receive your help even if it means suffering humiliation.”

“…Then I’ll just leave.”

‘A woman who doesn’t even know her own position.’

Angry, Ian stood up abruptly and walked towards the door.

-Thud. Thud.

Ian, stomping his feet, stopped in front of the door.

But he couldn’t bring himself to go outside and hesitated, glancing back.

“It was nice meeting you today.”

Lena was even waving her hand as she saw Ian off.

‘Haa… I’m going crazy.’

In the end, Ian felt frustrated and his insides were burning.
