『Month of the Cross – 28th (Morning)』

“I had a rough sleep… Not that I intended to sleep well in the first place…”

Fortunately, I had brought spare clothes, so I changed out of my damp and stained pants and tidied my disheveled hair.

“Then, my next destination is… I should go see Clarice. Informing the Lord brat about this situation… I should hold off for a bit.”

After mentally reviewing my schedule, I stuffed my pockets full of Holy Water and a battle hammer for self-defense and headed down to the first floor.

However, despite it being morning, the first floor, with its blackout curtains firmly drawn to block out the sunlight, felt as if night had not yet passed.

[Oh my… Are you awake, Clarice’s valued customer♥ How was the Special Room our inn boasts about♥ Judging by how clear your skin is compared to yesterday, you must have enjoyed your sleep very much♥]

An employee suddenly approached me, stroking my cheek as she spoke. Their attire was the same as before. An unimaginable level of exposure, practically naked. A string swimsuit barely covering their private parts and nipples… No, not even intending to cover them.

That attire alone made this place seem less like an inn and more like a brothel. More than anything, it wasn’t just one person dressed like that, but all the employees of this inn…

“Yes… I feel completely refreshed. It deserves to be called a Special Room.”

I mumbled vaguely, preparing to leave quickly. Nevertheless…

–Squeeze…!!

“Ugh…!”

How could a mere employee have such strength? When she came to my side and stroked my cheek, I didn’t even react or sense her presence. What the hell is going on…!

[Instead of that… How about having breakfast before you go♥ Our shop makes a very, very delicious meal every morning with milk and cheese delivered directly♥ And and… If you’re Clarice’s guest, you can eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner all for free♥]

How could I eat here! Who knows what poison they’ve put in the food at this suspicious place…!

Besides, how can such monstrous strength come from those slender arms…!? Also, she keeps burying my arm in her chest and rubbing it…! Does this woman not even realize what she’s doing!

[Stop it. You’re making the customer uncomfortable♥]

Amidst the commotion, a sultry voice cut between me and the female employee. It was the owner of this inn. The woman, with a more formidable chest than any of the other employees, joined the conversation in a gentle voice.

[Well, eating is up to you. Customer♥ As our employee said, we offer fresh milk and various dishes made from it, so… Please, feel free to try it whenever you like♥ Hehe♥]

“Thank you. However… I’m not really thinking about breakfast this morning, so I’ll politely decline. I appreciate the thought.”

Whether she was saving me from my predicament or had simply enjoyed my discomfort enough… Anyway, thanks to her, I was able to escape the noisy commotion.

–Creak…

Leaving behind the sound of women giggling behind me, I stepped out of the inn, gazed at the brightly shining morning sun, and once again organized my schedule.

“First, I need to meet Clarice and ask her about this inn… But where is Clarice right now…”

Yesterday, Clarice clearly said that she was accompanying Alex on a mission. If that mission was received from the guild, and if it was a mission that wouldn’t return to the Territory by yesterday…

“Hmph… This is a headache.”

Then should I go to the guild first and ask about Clarice’s situation… Or, there is one thing that comes to mind…

“Yesterday, Clarice seemed to have a long conversation with the Muse Priest, so there’s a possibility that Clarice told her about the mission.”

What’s certain is that I can go to the guild and ask. If I use my medal or status, I can inquire about the mission, which is considered personal information for each adventurer.

However, doing so could likely worsen Clarice’s standing among the guild or other adventurers. It’s not uncommon for ordinary people associated with powerful or famous individuals to be the target of envy or jealousy.

“Ahem… Should I head to the Church first? The guild is a backup plan.”

With that, my steps turned towards the Church once more. It was a journey based solely on assumptions and hypotheses… but there was no hesitation. Is there something I’m convinced of deep down…?

That the Muse Priest knows about Clarice… Or perhaps, there is definitely something linking the Muse Priest’s attack, the series of events that occurred in the Territory, and the involvement of an ordinary adventurer named Clarice.

So, what I’m doing now is no different from trying to uncover the secrets they’ve tightly wrapped up.

“I should give the Lord brat a reward later. Though I don’t know if he’ll accept it.”

I muttered to myself as I walked towards the Church. With the thought that the answer I was looking for might be there…

“It’s chaotic… It’s too chaotic.”

Something was strange. The expressions of the people passing by on the way to the Church were all awkward. Some were blushing, and some of the men were injured and being supported.

It couldn’t be said to be the appearance of thugs or gangsters… yet the streets were peaceful. There were no guards restraining anyone or citizens running away.

“Did some incident happen up ahead… Ugh, of all times, it had to be when I was heading to the Church. The Goddess is truly mischievous.”

While complaining about the series of unfortunate events, I still didn’t stop heading towards the Church. And I soon found out about the incident that had occurred near the Church.

“Heh, hehe… Is that kind of attire in fashion in the Territory these days? Even the Nuns are wearing such clothes and taking on such bodies…”

What I witnessed upon arriving in front of the Church was the firmly closed Church gate and the sign hanging in front of it. On either side of the sign that read “Under Construction,” Nuns stood like gatekeepers.

But they looked very different from the ordinary Nuns I knew.

They were clearly minimizing exposure of their entire bodies with Nun’s habits, seemingly upholding the chastity of the Nuns who served Hecate Goddess…

But their breasts, larger than their heads, made the Nun’s habit look more like a restraining garment. It clung tightly to their bodies, showing off their figures, and in the meantime, the tips of their breasts were clearly visible, as if they weren’t wearing underwear.

It wasn’t just their breasts; their tall height and large buttocks, more suited to warriors or knights than Nuns, also played a part.

“There was a reason why the people on the street earlier were blushing as they passed by.”

A body that one couldn’t bear to look at. The Nuns themselves didn’t seem to mind, guarding the Church with unchanging expressions like trained gatekeepers.

Moreover, even with their expressionless faces, they had distinct, beautiful features that seemed too good for them to be Nuns. And it wasn’t just one, but two of them… They’re guarding the Church, huh…

If they weren’t wearing Nun’s habits, their Lewd bodies would make one mistake the Church for another place, and I would have blushed involuntarily.

“Ahem… I’m getting old and becoming more shameless. But I can’t back down here…”

It was definitely a Church I had visited once before, but today it felt different. It felt like there was a strange energy… something that was hard to dismiss as just a feeling.

With an uneasy heart, I spoke to the Nuns.

“Nuns. My name is Yustice. I have something to ask…”

[…]

But the only response was silence. Only stillness enveloped us. Thinking my voice was too quiet, I tried to talk several times, but they remained silent.

As if answering an outsider was a waste, I couldn’t help but be taken aback by their consistent behavior.

It’s my opinion that Nuns don’t have to be kind or friendly to everyone, but ignoring people to this extent seemed excessive.

“Ahem… Ladies. I came to the Church because I have some business here…”

[Can’t you see this sign, Yustice?]

“Hmm…? What did you just say…?”

[I said, can’t you see the words written on the sign, Yustice?]

Their voices, the first they had uttered, were coldly heavy. The Nuns, whose pitch of voice was indistinguishable, pointed to the sign with sharp eyes and slender fingers.

Of course, it wasn’t that I couldn’t read, so I understood the meaning of the sign. It meant that the Church was under construction, so entry was prohibited to anyone who wasn’t a staff member.

Even so, I wished they would understand my intention to try to talk… More than anything, there was no respect for elders to be found.

“Of course I can see it. Even if I’m this old, I’m not so senile that I’ve forgotten how to read.”

[Then we hope you will leave promptly, Yustice. Entry is strictly prohibited to anyone other than Church staff, so…]

“Of course, I know that too. But I can’t back down because of that… Here! Take a look at this, then you’ll think differently.”

Even if I thought I could communicate with these Nuns, it ended up being no different from talking to a wall. No matter what topic I brought up, it always came back to square one.

Faced with a response that seemed closer to fanatics than Nuns, I ended up doing something I usually disliked.

From inside my coat, I showed the Nuns the medal bestowed upon me by His Majesty the King and the medal I had received when I was the commander of the Order of Holy Knights.

I didn’t want to flaunt my status or medals, and I actually hated it, but the situation was such that I had no choice but to deal with it firmly.

[So what, Yustice?]

[No matter what your status is, or how much merit you’ve accumulated, only those who have been permitted can cross this gate. Outsiders like you, Yustice, cannot enter.]

“Heh, hehehe… This is an unexpected reaction.”

The medals I had shown, suppressing my rising self-loathing, were instantly dismissed by the Nuns’ emotionless response.

In normal times, I would have chuckled and praised them as Clergy who didn’t discriminate based on status or the number of medals… but the situation was different now.

The Nuns were suspiciously blocking entry. Something was definitely going on inside. Really… I seem to have gotten involved in too much trouble.

Hmph… I didn’t want to resort to violent methods… But it seems I have no choice but to show my strength…!

“I’m sorry, but I can’t back down either. It might hurt a little, but please forgive m……… Huh…!?”

In the very short moment I reached out to subdue the Nuns in order to forcibly enter the Church, my body was flying through the air. The Church building was upside down, and all sorts of objects and people were upside down for a moment…

–Thud…!!!

“Ugh…!!”

A sudden loud noise and a throbbing headache. What had they done to me? My gaze was now fixed on the clear blue sky. Small pieces of stone were scattered around me, and the murmurs of the crowd grew louder.

At the same time, the image of the men who had been walking with support just a few minutes ago came to mind. So… this was the price for flirting with the Nuns…!?

The employees at the inn were the same… How can women be so strong…

[Did you eat your age for nothing, Yustice? To think you can’t even understand a simple phrase that says not to enter…]

[In some ways, you’re worse than the lowly males who were hitting on us. This is the last warning, Yustice. Next time, it won’t end like this, so… Can’t you even hear us anymore…]

Oh dear… I’m getting dizzy… I can’t hear very well… Ugh, is a bone broken? It’s getting hard to breathe…

I tried my best not to attract attention… I have to go to the guild too… My head is spinning…

“Damn it… Clarice…”

I couldn’t control my closing eyelids. When the strength left my hands and feet, and the once blue sky began to turn gray, my consciousness finally faded away…

[So… you’re saying you put this male in this state?]

[Yes♥ As per Clarice’s order, we executed punishment on anyone who tried to enter by force♥]

After giving Muse the sentence and going outside, I saw the old man Yustice lying sprawled out in a large X shape.

A cracked roadside. Murmuring people. Isn’t it obvious to anyone that it’s a major disaster?

I did tell them to use some force to drive out anyone who tried to enter by force… but I didn’t expect them to make such a mess…

Even if they’re called Slaves, at this rate, they’re no different from machines that carry out orders to the letter… If these Slaves are to act with self-awareness, the only way is for Goddess’s paradise to descend as soon as possible…

Anyway, that’s not the point…! It’s going to be a headache if we attract this much attention. Sigh… It feels like my Dick is shrinking…

[Hmph… From now on, don’t do it to this extent, and just slap them around a bit to drive them out. Got it?]

[Yes♥ I will keep that in mind, Clarice♥]

After revising the order, I smacked the Slaves Nuns on their butts and approached the fallen Yustice.

[Hmm… Blair can probably stop the rumors from spreading. Blair’s pungent Dick smell and Magical power-infused vaginal fluid should be able to smooth things over to some extent…]

As I thought of Blair to clean up the mess and rubbed my Dick, I suddenly smelled a familiar scent.

Of course, it wasn’t the smell of an old man like Yustice…

[Sniff sniff… Hehe♥ Headmaster Yustice… You smoked the cigarette I gave you, didn’t you♥ Hehe♥ As expected of a pathetic male. He couldn’t even try to refuse the Goddess’s offering♥]

The moment the smell of the cigarette filled with Goddess’s magic power stung my nose, another plan came to mind♥

[Let’s strike while the iron is hot, as they say♥ Muse will bloom in a little while anyway… Should I give Headmaster Yustice the Goddess’s Blessing right away♥]

Ah… The pleasure that had cooled down is starting to bloom again♥ I’m already looking forward to how I’m going to tease, mock, and Depravity that old man♥

[Well then, shall we move the location first? Headmaster♥ Your beloved disciple Clarice will show you Paradise♥ The fact that you and I have met again here like this must also be what the Goddess intended♥ Then the only thing the Goddess wants is… your Depravity, and your rebirth as a new sister♥]

It may be sudden, but please take care of me from now on♥ Pathetic male, old male Headmaster Yustice♥
