Chapter 1113: Scary side

Chapter 1113: Scary side

In the end, the saintess backed off even though it looked like she wanted to do more.

It really seemed like she wanted to grab my hand and lift it right up in front of her face so that the light from the Mark of God would cover her.

But she was able to hold herself back in the end.

There was nothing that was like this in the game, but then again...

One couldn't obtain the Mark of God in the game.

Since obtaining this Mark of God, there were many different things that happened that I had

no idea of. There were all kinds of things that happened that didn't happen in the game because of the power of this Mark of God.

Though to be fair, this was all because the Mark of God didn't exist in the game.

Or as far as I knew, it didn't exist or someone would have found it already.

Not to mention, the Mark of God was something that came from a god itself.

So it wasn't something that was even accessible in the game.

Even if the Holy Empire was made up of religions that worshipped the gods, they didn't actually have a way to access the realm of the gods. It was a place that was only mentioned and never actually visited in the game.

It wasn't that strange that there was no mention of the Mark of God in the game.

At least for now, it seemed like she was able to hold back.

But in the future...

That was something to worry about when the time came, it wasn't something to worry about right now.

Or that was what I thought until morning came.

When I opened the door to the room in the hotel that I was staying in, I found the saintess waiting outside.

I was completely caught off guard since she was standing right in front of the door.

With the way that she was standing there, it was almost as if she had been waiting there for a long time now. Especially with how there was a crowd that had gathered in the hallway watching her.

The only reason that I was even able to come out was because the holy knights had been deployed to keep the crowd away from her.

It really seemed like she had caused a large mess, but the saintess didn't seem to care...

That was because the moment that she saw me come out, she said with a smile, "Holy son, you're awake. Shall I show you around this morning? There are many beautiful places in our Holy Empire for you to see."

I looked at her with a strange look after hearing her say this.

I could see that many people had strange reactions as well, but they didn't do anything since the holy knights were keeping them back.

After looking at her with this strange look for a bit, I asked, "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"

The saintess said with the same smile, "Of course I was waiting to guide you around. It's the holy son's first time in the Holy Empire, of course it's this lowly servant of the lord's duty to guide the holy son around."

There was a part of me that strongly wanted to reject this, but it was hard when I saw the way that she was looking at me.

I knew that no matter what I said, it would be hard to convince her when she had this look in her eyes.

So in the end, I just gave a nod in response to show that I accepted her off to guide me.

The smile grew wider on the saintess' face before she said, "Then holy son, please come with me."

She moved aside and gestured forward as if I should go first.

But I didn't go forward, instead I just looked at her with an awkward look on my face before saying, "Is there a need to call me holy son like this? You can just address me by my name, especially since your status is higher than mine."

The saintess firmly shook her head before saying, "I am nothing more than a lowly servant of the lord, how could I compare to the holy son?"

I really didn't know what to say when the saintess was this insistent on this.

It really made me feel awkward...

But at the very least, I was able to convince her that it wasn't a good idea to address each other like this. It would attract too much attention and attention wasn't something that we wanted right now.

"Then please call this lowly servant Irene."

That was the compromise that Saintess Irene made in the end, it seemed like she wouldn't go any further than this.

I could see that from the look on her face, so I said, "Saintess Irene, then please show us around."

She gave a nod before leading the way.

This time, she walked in front, though it looked like she was acting like a guide.

At least it was better than before where she wanted to follow behind me...

I was certain that I would be torn to pieces by the citizens of the Holy Empire if they were to

see me leading the way for their saintess.

As we headed out, I couldn't help noticing something.

I remembered a few faces yesterday because they looked at me with hostile gazes.

I didn't see those faces today.

"It seems like your group is missing a few people, what happened?" I couldn't help asking Saintess Irene.

She had the same calm smile on her face, but this time her smile didn't reach her eyes.

She looked at me with that smile and said, "It seems that something came up and they were predisposed, which is why they couldn't join us today."

I didn't even need to think to know what happened...

I just never thought that she would be this decisive about this, especially since I was an outsider and those were members of the Holy Empire.
