The basement of a store on Soul Academy Street.

The people who were working in the store smiling just a moment ago had somewhat solemn faces, as if they had just thrown away their brightness.

In an atmosphere that seemed like the silence would continue forever if left alone, the person in charge of the counter raised a heavy voice.

“The atmosphere in the church has been unusual since the saint returned. Looks like he noticed something.”

“The information I heard from those who stopped by just now is the same. They say the priests at the church seem busier than usual.”

“…but it’s strange. Was there a way for our identities to be discovered? Not only the professors at the academy but even the bishop of the church did not notice us.”

There is silence on the table as one person says that they might be misunderstanding something. Everyone is thinking the same thing.

They may be called the elite among the followers of the Void, but they are of a different class from other idiots who simply rely on the power of the evil god.

Those who not only imitated the appearances of others but also acted out everything they had swallowed had the confidence that they could infiltrate anywhere in the world.

In fact, they have not been caught once since they infiltrated Academy Street.

They deceived the professors of the academy, deceived the priests of the main church, and even the bishop of the church did not notice their infiltration.

But a clumsy saint from the church you gave me noticed something wrong in just one day?

“We’ll talk about that later. Even if it is our mistake, it is right to prepare for the worst.”

The person who spoke first had similar thoughts, but hid him to calm the mood.

If you think it might be an illusion and face the worst case scenario, it’s over.

“For now, let’s go back to our respective places and wait.”

As the man who organized the situation was talking about what each person should do, the crystal ball in his arms began to shine.

The man asked for understanding from the others sitting at the table, took out a crystal ball, and filled it with magic. Then, the face of an urgent man appeared within it.

“Elok.”

The man, who had been breathing heavily as if he had made a hurried move and made contact, continued his story while letting out a breath that seemed like it was going to break.

“The church has moved! Priests are surrounding the store we infiltrated!”

The one who led the story. Elrok cursed under his breath after hearing the man’s words.

shit. The church is moving faster than originally thought.

How can this happen? In order for the church that has become so solidified to move forward, it will have to go through various procedures, right? Did you find any major evidence?

“Right now, other followers are imitating the employee and trying to block him, but we don’t know how long he can hold out!”

“What is the justification given by the church?”

“Heresy hunt.”

“Have you presented anything as evidence?”

“No. Nothing.”

what? It may have been in the past, but the current church wouldn’t have the power to force a search without any evidence, right?

Just as Eloch was frowning, having difficulty guessing the church’s intentions, a commotion broke out above the ceiling.

Although no one had mentioned it, everyone at the table recognized who the visitors to the store were.

The energy that the intruders held in their arms was clearly the divinity of the given church.

“…I guess I should step back for now. The fact that they express such confidence must mean they have something.”

It is unclear whether he is simply bragging or being sincere, but other followers nod their heads when Elrok says that it would be better to step back for now.

“No. I will stay here.”

However, not everyone sitting at the table agreed with Eloch’s words.

The person who had been in charge of this infiltration and was now serving as a chef insisted on his opinion even while receiving reprimanding looks.

“It worked out better. If you’re just having doubts, look as far as you can. If it is concluded that they were unreasonable, we will be able to operate more comfortably than we do now.”

“I think it’s too dangerous.”

“Even if it becomes a problem, we will take as much time as possible. So Elok, please look at the situation below and take action.”

There was a clear determination in his words that if he made a mistake, he would waste time and die.

Elrok, who was facing him, slowly nodded while assessing the man’s usefulness and the various things he would gain if this project was successful.

“I understand. Instead, don’t expect us to help you.”

“Of course it should be.”

The man who came out of the room with a grin adjusted his expression as he went up the stairs.

The chef I am currently playing is someone with a fiery personality and high self-esteem. If he were that person, he would not be discouraged by the sudden appearance of the church and would raise his voice.

The man lightly cleared his throat in front of the door leading to the ground and tensed his neck as he kicked the door open.

“What on earth is going on!”

As the loud voice fills the store, the eyes of the people inside the store turn to the man.

Employees full of embarrassment. Priests with somewhat oppressive expressions. And a small girl standing in the center of it all.

Girls?

Why on earth is Lucy Alln here?

…Now that I think about it, it was said that Lucy Arlen was the one who caught our colleague who infiltrated the Arts Church last time.

This is an undeniable fact, given the uproar that occurred in the Arts Church.

Was this idiot given some kind of blessing?

Was there a good reason why the dark apostle was so obsessed with this one girl?

“Hey. pig. Why are you looking at me like that?”

The man, who was thinking while frowning, heard Lucy’s sharp voice and burst out laughing as if he was shocked.

“I knew that Lady Aln was close to the saint. I didn’t know that the power of the church could be used at will!”

The words and actions of the man who changed the purpose of hunting down heretics into Lucy Alln’s personal foolish actions were truly excellent. In fact, the priests standing behind Lucy Alln expressed bewilderment after hearing his words.

But it wasn’t Lucy. She appeared leading them, walked confidently in front of the man, looked up at him, and smiled.

“Gulp? Gulp?”

“…What are you doing?”

“You spoke to me in the language of livestock, right? Why are you pretending not to understand?”

The man’s face heats up slightly as he hears Lucy complaining that it is arrogant to ignore his consideration.

Calm down. The more this guy behaves, the greater my cause becomes. Just let this kid do whatever he wants.

“Puhahahaha♡ Look at you pretending not to be♡ If you look like a horny pig and act polite, it’ll only make you laugh?♡”

Ignore it. The reason Lucy Alln is making such a fuss is because there is no clear evidence. Just laugh at everything this guy says.

“Or maybe I’m just not confident?♡ Well~ I feel like I can’t see anything because I’m buried in belly fat~♡”

if.

“What do you do when you urinate?♡ Do you lift your skin to find it?♡ Or maybe you just lie down and wash it?♡ That’s right~ I guess it’s this?♡ I thought it smelled like urine♡…”

This fucking bitch.

The man, whose reason had evaporated for a moment, forgot his original purpose and took out the kitchen knife in his arms and swung it at Lucy Aln.

A surprise attack that even contained the power of an evil god and had only the sole intention of destroying the arrogant kid named Lucy Aln.

Lucy didn’t make any movement even when she saw the kitchen knife he was swinging.

It wasn’t that I couldn’t deal with it.

How could she, who was above the level of a knight, miss the man’s slow attack?

The reason Lucy just watched the attack in silence was because there was no reason to react to it.

Because by her side, there was a knight who would protect his master even if it meant risking his life.

“You’re cocky. Where would someone like you try to mess with a young lady?”

Carl, who blew off the hand holding the kitchen knife with his arm, dominated the restaurant with his own momentum.

At that time, not only the followers of the evil spirit who played the staff, but even the priests behind Lucy were in a cold sweat. Lucy Alln hummed as usual and spun around to look at the priests.

“Hey? Priests? What are you doing standing around like that? If you had good eyesight, you would have seen that just now, right?”

“…Uh. yes. yes. That’s right.”

“Then get to work♡ You poor bastards who can do nothing but follow after a poor saint♡”

The priests came to their senses after Lucy Alln’s selling and immediately tried to arrest the store’s employees.

Realizing that the situation had become irreversible, the Void’s followers revealed their identity and struggled, but their fighting skills were not that great from the start, and their struggles only proved that a priest is a priest.

Even though it was another store where followers of evil spirits stayed, there was no difference.

Fabi, who followed Lucy’s orders and went there, used the god’s divinity to reveal the disguise of the evil god’s followers.

The Void Followers’ infiltration plan, which had taken several months, was shattered in just one day.

The commotion that occurred with less than a week left until the opening of Soul Academy attracted the attention of many people. Most of the magistrates who listened to the situation commented that the saint of the main church had once again proven her abilities.

Fabi, who was involved, denied that it was like that, but most people just judged her words to be the saint’s humility.

“It’s not just humility. There was really nothing I did in this matter.”

“But isn’t it the saint who leads and moves the people of the church?”

“That…that’s true.”

“Has anyone told the saint about the problem of the streets?”

“…that.”

“Haha. It’s not good to be too humble. Holy woman.”

Lucy’s intention was also part of the reason why this was attributed to Faby.

Because Lucy revealed that she did not want to stand out, Faby naturally received all the credit.

While Fabi was having a hard time receiving praise for something she didn’t do, Lucy, who had escaped the commotion alone, was glaring at the quest window in her dormitory.

[Exterminate negativity!]

That’s strange.

I destroyed all the residences where my followers were staying, but why doesn’t the quest complete?
