sing to god So that the whole world can hear.

pray to heaven May this grace reach your fingertips.

My blood is the blood and holy water that will restore the Lamb. Even if they are injured, their faith will heal them.

My blood is the sanctification and oil that will burn my enemies, so I will burn the enemy that bares its teeth.

Faith makes you fly in the sky and walk on water. Faith in God makes things that don’t make any sense possible, so I’ll call it a miracle.

It is said that achieving something that cannot be achieved is nothing other than a miracle.

So sing.

Borrow from God’s consciousness and sing slowly.

We appeal in the hope that everyone will not die or get sick.

I rolled up the rosary and held the dagger to my wrist, which was held like a knuckle.

I know that the power of prayer resides in the dagger the bishop gave me, so I just hoped that my prayers would become even stronger at this moment.

I just wanted to be acknowledged by the goddess that my prayers were filled with faith.

The place where blood flows the most is the artery, but the artery is deeper than expected, so even if you simply cut your wrist with a box cutter or something like that, not much would come out.

So I had to lock myself in the deepest place.

It must hurt. No matter how accustomed you are to pain, it still hurts, so it took a lot of determination.

Still, everyone was having a hard time, so I couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by the higher difficulty level than before, so I gritted my teeth because it was strange that I was the only one who was bleeding and fighting hard while everyone else was bleeding.

Kwasik.

The sound that followed the resolution was clearly audible.

“… Vero, no, a saint?”

Cough, there was Kylon surrounded by a pack of wolves and killing them one by one, but I didn’t even respond to his voice and just kept moving forward.

Blood spurting like a fountain was pouring down my upper body.

The wolves turned their attention to the smell of blood.

It seemed like there was a bloody smell, but even so, the blood colored the surroundings vividly, a little different from the others.

In an instant, the pure white saint’s clothes were stained with blood, turning bright red, and the wolves’ attention turned to me.

Kailon urgently called out to me as a pack of wolves rushed towards me, their red eyes shining as if they were tinged with madness.

“Saint, run away!”

Maybe Kylon is worried about me.

If the time of danger came, I might have regretted going back on my promise to help.

But Kylon, I never intended to hide under your protection or in your shadow.

I am not someone who just wants to receive help forever.

Even after seeing him working hard for me, I couldn’t be the only one who felt this comfortable, so I moved on.

I looked at the pack of wolves rushing to bite me.

In fact, when I thought about the reason why wolves attacked, I knew very well that it was not to kill people, but to eat livestock that were sleeping in the barn.

There was a way to satisfy my hunger by throwing my body around once, but it seemed like it would be too painful, and the feeling that it was a one-time thing was so strong that I couldn’t put my thoughts into action.

I just lit the fire after praying.

“God, burn all the teeth that tear at the lamb.”

Hwarak, Hwarak.

As if lighting a match in front of oil, the fire flowing through my blood instantly covered my body.

The blue fire, which grew in size in an instant, came closer and burned the wolf that was trying to eat me.

All the blood that had soaked the white clothes started a fire as if it had become oil, and the blood that burned like that was evaporating in an instant. My left hand was completely covered in blue flames due to the blood completely soaking it.

My body was covered in flames again and again, until the saint’s clothes, which had been completely stained with blood, became pure white again. But it was only those wolves that were burning, not my body.

I could feel the warmth, but there was no heat, and although it set my body on fire, I didn’t get burned.

The only things that burn are wolf monsters, those monsters that have absorbed demonic energy.

My blood burns because it is oil, and that monster burns because it is demonic energy.

The wolf that touched the torch burned repeatedly until it was completely black.

There were wolves that hesitated at the sight and stopped coming, and I looked towards them.

And then he ran through the fire and ran out.

The flames that spread around me were scattered into the air, repeatedly burning using my blood as raw material.

He shouts again, spraying the blood that bursts from his left wrist onto the enemy in front of him.

“God, burn all enemies that harm the Lamb. By Him will the Lamb find rest, and rest will become faith.”

Then I swung my hand, and the blood scattered instantly burned the entire front like a flamethrower.

As I prayed, the direction of this fight completely changed. From defense to attack, from a situation where you have to attack and block, to burning the enemy and driving them out.

The fact that the unfavorable situation had changed to the advantage meant that there was a lot of leeway, and thanks to that, it was possible to buy time for this party whose priority was to earn one turn.

The wolf that ran into the momentary gap after swinging the sword was set on fire, and was then ready to swing the sword again.

Burns the enemy. If there is faith, this world where the goddess exists will definitely repay that faith.

Of course, that can only be done if you are a high-ranking person like a bishop or pope, not another ordinary person. Although I am only a very small number of people who have been granted the power of the goddess, I moved forward, feeling fortunate that that included me.

The wolf, which seemed to be dozens of years old, suddenly lost its vitality and turned black. Once again, Kylon’s holy sword cut down the monster, Agnes’ rapier pierced the monster’s body, and Linda’s fist crushed the monster’s head.

Finally, Flora, who escaped the situation where the wolf was about to pounce, took a breath and started providing support fire again.

The laser light, flashing and drawing a straight line, kills the wolves one by one, and the number of wolves around the area decreases one by one, until the end is finally in sight.

Even though Kailon was unable to adapt to the level of difficulty that had risen so sharply and was struggling, I felt fortunate that with my help he was able to keep going without hitting a wall.

How blessed I am to not be able to stop.

I thought that once this incident was over, I should pray to God.

*

Ki-ing, ki-ing.

The sound of a life dying was heard.

And that life was the last of the group.

All of the blood that had been burned had evaporated, leaving not a single drop of my blood on the grass, and my clothes were also showing off their pure white color.

When Kylon pulled out the holy sword he had used on the life’s body, dark red blood came out in patter.

No one said anything.

He just looked at me and didn’t say anything.

It seemed like that to me too. I thought she only carried potions and didn’t know how to do anything, but who could believe that a nerd saint who didn’t even give potions suddenly made such a big contribution to the battle?

Because I understood this silence, I just looked at the dead life without making any expression.

He healed the others with his blood and returned to the inn.

When I went into my room with the key that I had previously said I could use as much as I wanted, there was a solitary room there.

I was aware that it was a private room because they gave me five keys, but when I actually saw the room, I realized that the owner was also very generous.

Did he say he was that desperate because his father was running a wedding?

The clothes were cleaned thanks to Kailon, and after checking my body, I roughly changed into the clothes I had received in advance.

After that, I knelt on the bed and prayed while holding the rosary.

Thank you so much for lending me your strength.

Thank you for giving me something when I couldn’t do anything.

After the prayer was over, I put down the rosary, took off the pectorale that reached down to my chest, and placed it on the small table next to me.

All the heavy feeling disappeared and my body became lighter. After sighing, I lay down on the bed and pulled the blanket up to my chest.

I really accomplished something, too.

As I raised the corners of my mouth with a smirk, I was so proud of myself that I kicked the blanket with my foot a few times and the door creaked open.

“… Veronica.”

Anyone could immediately tell that he was coming into my room without hesitation, and the owner of the voice approached me, calling my name.

“Uh, why did you come? You must be tired, so you should sleep.”

I was just about to sleep, but Kylon suddenly came in, so I had to get up again.

As I sat on the bed and looked at Kylon, Kylon gave me a somewhat worried look, then came over and hugged me tightly.

I wonder if it’s a lack of affection, but it’s still true. I feel like I’m hugging him too often, so my frown narrows.

“Why are you doing that again… ”

“Doesn’t it hurt?”

“I’m fine.”

“Does it hurt? I’m sorry, if I were stronger, this wouldn’t have happened.”

“I’m fine… ”

“Sorry, sorry… ”

It was still early days, and there was still a long way to go on this journey, so it was natural for Kylon to be weak, so there was no reason for him to apologize.

But when I saw him shedding tears because I was in pain, I couldn’t tell him that I was okay anymore, so I just held him and kept my mouth shut.
