The underground space called the Earth Worm’s Nest felt like a cave.

Corpses buried in dirt were visible throughout the wide space, probably those who had been attacked by Earthworms.

Serena gathered them neatly and began to pray for them all.

We couldn’t just sit back and watch, so we started helping her sort out the corpses that were now nothing more than bones.

In the end, it’s just data in the game, but if you do that, doesn’t that mean the girls next to me are also data beings?

Thinking about it that way made me feel a bit suffocated, so I decided not to think about it any further.

Occasionally items would appear among the corpses.

“What is this?”

Among them, this time a rather unique item came out.

It was a crude ornament made by weaving together branches, but it seemed to have some kind of religious meaning.

“Ah, it’s a symbol of the god of the underworld.”

“What?”

Are you talking about the god of the underground?

Why is that here… Ah, it is underground, here.

“Most miners believe in the god of the underground. They always work underground. So they pray to the god of the underground to prevent accidents.”

“Aha.”

But I heard from Lisa that the members of the Solar Church reject paganism, but their reaction is more indifferent than I thought?

Lisa whispered softly, as if she noticed my doubts.

“The god of the underworld is a god one level lower than the god of the sun. He is a lesser god included in mythology.”

“That’s it.”

I thought it would naturally be monotheistic based on the atmosphere, but I guess not?

Well, this kind of fantasy is more fun when there are many gods.

I pondered for a moment what to do with this sign in my hand.

Can I just put it down?

If I just leave it alone, you won’t just get angry and do whatever, right?

Since I already had the protection of the goddess of love, I could not deny the existence of the gods.

This god must exist, too.

“I don’t know whose item it is, but…please leave it here.”

Serena asked that a sign be placed in front of the buried bodies.

Well, it’s not that difficult.

As I laid down the sign in front of them, I looked at the skeletons and felt a strange sense of pity, so I muttered a prayer-like prayer to myself, asking them to go to a good place.

Huh?

Suddenly, at this timing, you want my blessing?

Huh? Huh?

You’re saying it’ll block fatal damage once?

“Kkiyaaat!”

Oh my… what a blessing!

From today onwards, I am a believer who serves the God of the Underworld!

“Ah, Asia? What’s wrong?”

“You must have had a hard time being in a small space for too long.”

Everyone looked at me strangely, but I didn’t care.

Well, I’m a lucky Asian who has been blessed with a lot of love!

“Work hard! Work hard!”

“Huh? Yes… .”

Serena didn’t seem to understand my sudden change of attitude, but she quickly accepted it because she knew that hard work was good.

And Karin and Lisa… somehow seem familiar with each other.

Have I always been like this?

***

“Wow, thank you for listening to my stubbornness. The sun doesn’t shine underground, so the souls can’t go where they need to go. I’m glad I can comfort them like this.”

This is truly a priestly attitude.

It would have looked more sacred if it weren’t for the torn high-legged nun’s habit.

“Serena, your clothes are torn a lot. How about changing into something else?”

“Huh? If it’s something else… .”

There’s that, that!

Tight-fitting side-slit nun’s habit! Shortened to tight-fitting side-slit!

“That, that’s… .”

“Serena, you wouldn’t be walking around like that… .”

“Oh, no!”

Then should I wear it?

I kept nagging her because I wanted to see her side-by-side nun’s habit.

“Next team… Next team nun’s habit… .”

“Ah, I got it! So stop it now!”

“Hehehe.”

Done! It’s the next team!

Serena glanced at her body, then covered her exposed chest and went to a corner.

“Look, don’t look!”

“Yes.”

Are you going to see everything?

If someone tells you not to look, it is polite to look.

Serena’s changing clothes? How can I stand this!

“Asia, it’s embarrassing to stare at something like this.”

“Ah, ahh… Lisa, don’t cover it up! Karin, help me!”

“Why do you think I would help you with that?”

Betrayal, betrayal…!

This is betrayal!

I struggled hard, but in the end I was afflicted with the Darkness status effect until Serena finished changing her clothes!

The caster is Lisa’s hand! I won’t forgive you!

“Oh, yeah, it’s still a little small… I should go and change quickly… .”

“Wow… !”

This is it, this is Serena’s habit type B…!

A nun’s habit that is so tight that it severely emphasizes the chest and the legs that are excessively exposed to the hips…!

How could there be such a depraved nun’s habit in the world!

If religious people see this, they will foam at the mouth… Oh, this is what I said last time.

Anyway, it’s really good!

“Keuhehehe… .”

“Don’t look at me with strange eyes.”

I think I hate it because it makes my chest feel stuffy, so I’ll enjoy it to my heart’s content before I get to my lodgings and change.

“But don’t we have any repair potions?”

“No, there isn’t.”

No, Serena is like this!

“… Then should we go back like this?”

“Uh… .”

I briefly checked the three of us, excluding Serena.

Tattered clothes that do nothing to cover the chest or vagina.

You’re going back wearing something like this…?

The three of us looked at Serena at the same time.

“Why, why…?”

I guess I’ll have to send Serena alone and ask her to bring me the repair potion.

We arrived at the entrance and for that reason, we sent Serena away and waited at the entrance to the cave.

The guards’ gazes were intense when she came out, but if we had gone out, they wouldn’t have been staring at Serena’s clothes that barely showed her breasts.

No, but wouldn’t the clothes you were wearing originally attract more attention than these?

Well, I would be really nervous if a woman came in wearing a high-legged nun’s habit and then came out wearing a side-slit nun’s habit.

What on earth were you doing inside that made you change your clothes?

No, doesn’t that mean those guys had some weird imaginations about our Serena?

Oh my god, I can’t forgive you!

“Ugh… Why didn’t we buy repair potions?”

“You spent all your money on other things.”

Thanks to this, even though the money is low, the inventory is full.

The active herb is a plant that removes the state of darkness, and the magic engineering massager, contrary to the uneasy nuance felt from its name, is a machine that removes the state of paralysis!

Never any other massager!

The antidote is… literally an antidote.

Come to think of it, the bath water is still the same.

This is a kind of talisman.

An amulet item that will allow you to feel them just by having it…!

I can’t use that, right?

Since I’ve given most of my remaining money to Serena, she’ll buy me a repair potion.

We just have to wait here for a moment.

“But that’s strange.”

“What is it?”

Suddenly Lisa tilted her head and expressed her doubt.

“If Earth Worm was the culprit behind the incident, wouldn’t someone have heard the vibrations and figured out the truth?”

“Um… .”

Now that I hear it, that’s true.

No, don’t say that!

If you say it like that, it feels like there’s another real culprit!

“But the victims were also in that nest.”

“That’s true, but… .”

Phew, that’s a relief.

Thanks to Karin, we were able to prevent the development where the hidden culprit suddenly appears!

Even if there are still some suspicious parts, that’s the end! This is the end!

The culprit was an Earth Worm and we defeated it, so problem solved!

Please let’s just move on from that.

“But that nest seems a bit small considering the size of the Earth Worm… .”

Ah, aaah!

Stop questioning me! It makes me anxious!

Once you start doubting something like this, there is no end to it.

Why would it be a B-class night game?

It’s just that there are some settings holes and such!

“Don’t worry about that. It’s a mine, so you might have mistaken it for the sound of a passage collapsing.”

“No, that’s a big deal in its own right… .”

“Anyway!”

The important thing is not to worry!

This incident is definitely over!

Thud thud.

But sadly, behind me I began to hear footsteps that were not ours.

No… no… !

“Wow… .”

From the first word, it reeks of villainy!

The three of us froze in place, not even thinking about looking back.

“Did you guys defeat the Earth Worm? That’s amazing.”

“Eek… .”

The real culprit… This guy is the real culprit…!

Surely the real culprit would not have come before us without any preparation.

It is already clear that we have fallen into his trap…!

Hey, but doesn’t that voice sound familiar?

“Huh? You… .”

I mustered up my courage and turned my head to see a familiar old man standing in front of us.

“Sa… Mr. South?”

That’s the grandfather who forced me to become a member of the Goddess of Love!

No, why in a place like this?

Wasn’t it Mar or Mur in that city?

“South? Oh, I see you met my brother.”

A bright smile appeared on his face as he listened to my words.

Oh, no way… .

“That means you are a saint. Nice to meet you. I am East. I am in charge of the Mainu branch of the Goddess of Love.”

East…! Is it east, west, south, north?

They were your twins!

Man, your grandfather being your twin, that’s not something anyone would wish for… .

“Sa, Goddess of Love? Saint? What does that mean?”

Oh, come to think of it, Lisa doesn’t know anything!

“Oh, did I say something wrong?”

of course!

Hey, how do I explain this?

And what did you say to Serena?

“Shall we come in and talk first?”

As he said that, he knocked on the wall near the entrance with a deft gesture.

Knock knock!

Then the wall split open… and a hidden secret passage appeared.

“Uh… .”

Another temple?
