A saintess? She's just a bad woman.

After finishing his drink, Curtis was still somewhat unsatisfied.

"Guest, are you satisfied with my service?"

Santa Karina wiped the red wine from the corner of her mouth and began to undress. The meaningless fabric that had covered her beautiful body slid down her curves to the ground, captivating all who looked at her.

Curtis was just a hot-blooded young girl with little self-control. Seeing such a stimulating and erotic scene, she was visually shocked, her cheeks flushed with an ambiguous blush, and she could hardly control the surging heat in her lower abdomen.

A tingling, electric-like sensation spread from his lower abdomen throughout his body. His body was gradually driven by this feeling, making it almost impossible to think. His mind went blank, and all he could see was Saint Karina's fair-skinned body and her alluring smile.

She felt a sense of frustration, as if she were being suppressed.

Logically, the guests should be the ones in control tonight, so why should they be suppressed by the service providers? It's incomprehensible and absurd.

His authority had been challenged like never before, and he could not allow such a thing to continue.

Curtis had to force himself to look away from that woman who was a scourge to the country.

"Go take a shower..."

This woman must be trying to prolong the service time through such a despicable means, keeping the process at a teasing stage, neither going too far nor too slow, while watching her own desperate expression and letting out a wicked laugh.

That must be right.

She couldn't let Santa Karina have her way; having spent so much money, she had to go all the way. What kind of service is it if it doesn't hit a home run?

"Stop wasting time, hurry up..."

To mask his inner turmoil, Curtis picked up the bottle and kept pouring liquor into his glass, then added ice cubes in droves, trying to calm his agitated state. The more he drank, the redder his face became; his emotions, far from calming down, grew even more complicated.

An indescribable urgency coursed through his body with his blood circulation. The sound of water in the bathroom seemed ordinary, without any particular meaning, but Curtis wished it would stop immediately.

Every minute spent waiting in the living room was torture; the longer I waited, the more uncomfortable I felt.

Iced drinks couldn't soothe her heat; she needed to try something else. The crux of the problem lay in her shower, which she deliberately took long, as if stalling for time.

Now Curtis sees everything as a delaying tactic.

"hateful……"

After finishing the bottle of wine, she still wasn't satisfied, so she added ice to the kettle and chug glass after glass to kill time. Finally, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Santa Karina opened the door, making a grand entrance through a cloud of white steam.

She was only draped in a thin bath towel, which barely covered any skin; a large area of ​​her skin was exposed, almost completely bare. Her fair skin was tinged with a rosy hue by the hot water, making her appear exceptionally alluring.

Water droplets slid down the texture of her skin, dripping into the cleavage of her chest.

This scene is absolutely thrilling and intoxicating.

"You've been taking too long."

Curtis's throat was parched, his eyes fixed on the person in front of him, his mouth uttering harsh words, but his body language betrayed him. In reality, ten minutes of showering wasn't long, it was even a bit fast.

"If I don't wash for a while, how can I get rid of the stains on my body? You don't want me to appear in front of you looking dirty, right?"

Saint Karina sat beside her, still wrapped in a bath towel, poured herself a glass of water, and her full, sinful breasts swayed gently with her movements.

178. I've found my people!

However, Santa Karina did not do what Curtis had imagined.

"Ding……"

She gently touched Curtis's brow with her fingertip, and then Curtis suddenly realized that everything around him had changed.

This wasn't a luxury cabin. Her mouth was so dry she could barely make a sound; her voice was hoarse and the bitter taste made her feel terrible.

"You were just grinning like an idiot, what did you see?"

Clearly, everything I saw before was an illusion.

The reality was that, apart from the fishy smell in their nostrils, they seemed to be in a collapsed building.

"No...nothing..."

Of course, she couldn't admit that she had just been fantasizing about Saint Karina's body.

Just then, she saw a rotting, decaying face appear not far away, facing them from only a few meters away.

To make matters worse, many eerie blue lights suddenly appeared in the passageway.

As they drew closer, Curtis and Saint Karina could see the true nature of these eerie blue lights: a vast number of emaciated sea wraiths. Their bizarre bodies and peculiar gait made them appear quite grotesque in the dim light.

"No way... How can there still be so many sea spirits... Logically speaking, the ocean currents should have carried them all away. Could it be that they were hiding in this passage from the beginning, and only became active because we made too much noise coming in?"

Unlike the composed Saint Karina, Curtis appeared quite agitated.

She was filled with anxiety, fearing that Saint Karina couldn't handle the situation on her own and that she had ended up harming her.

“There are too many of them… and in such a narrow place, Saint Karina, you go to the other side, I’ll distract them.”

Fear of being abandoned and the desire not to put the other person in danger because of oneself—two conflicting thoughts raced through my mind.

So she planned to use herself to lure away the sea spirits, allowing Saint Karina to escape alone.

"You underestimate me too much, Your Highness. I am not a weakling who abandons his companions and runs away alone. Don't worry, these guys are no match for me."

Santa Karina stepped forward and shielded Curtis behind her.

Seeing Saint Karina's tall yet not frail figure, Curtis felt his heart pounding.

While rationally agreeing with leaving behind the burdens and going alone, Curtis was still emotionally moved by Santa Karina's sacrifices.

“Saint Karina, you are strong. There’s no need for you to die with me. You can definitely escape on your own instead of being dragged down by me.”

Curtis bit her lip and clenched her fists, seemingly trying to calm herself down and make Santa Karina feel that she was strong, not afraid, and could leave alone with a clear conscience.

“Sigh… Curtis… Why won’t you admit that you want to live?”

Seeing Curtis's pitiful state, Saint Karina rubbed her head and sighed softly.

"Besides, pretending to be strong sometimes only makes those who care about you worry more. It's just a mere sea vengeful spirit; it can't take away a human's right to live!"

While the sea spirits were still slowly approaching, Saint Karina rushed into the sea spirit horde as soon as she finished speaking.

Actually, there were only about a hundred sea vengeful spirits, which was far from enough!

Ultimate moves, branch skills, and basic attacks—Saint Karina's holy sword swung ceaselessly. Almost as if she had just severed the body of one sea wraith in half, she was now piercing the heart of another.

"Your Highness, do you see? Although I am not that strong, even the weak have a chance to survive. The weak can kill the strong who have the upper hand if they seize the opportunity. So from now on, you will not die before I fall and die."

While slaying the sea vengeful spirits, Saint Karina also used her free time for verbal therapy, trying to cheer Curtis up.

"What? Are you saying that the strong control the survival rights of the weak, and won't even let me die?"

"After all, I like you very much, Your Highness. I like you more than anyone else, more than anyone else in the empire. So this is also my selfish desire to help you. I can't abandon you."

“Saint Karina…smooth-tongued…”

Saint Karina's words, which sounded like a confession, were very persuasive in the context of protecting Curtis.

So even a proud kid like Curtis couldn't help but blush with embarrassment at this moment.

After that, without stopping, Saint Karina danced among the sea spirits, effortlessly provoking them and slaying them all with her blade.

With a "whoosh," the blood on the blade was flicked to the ground, not a single drop of blood remaining on the blade.

"Let's go, let's go up."

"Make sure the sea spirit is completely eliminated," Saint Karina said to Curtis.

"it is good."

The two remained silent and walked out of the passage.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Outside the pit, the two men had already emerged after cutting the large, human-sized rock blocking their path into pieces.

In the distance, a larger monster mountain emitted a similar urgent siren sound, sounding like an alarm, full of urgency.

When Saint Karina came outside, she could see a group of priests being chased by a monster made up of enormous sea wraiths. Apart from the blue light on its chest, its body was covered in dense golden light, which would make anyone with trypophobia tingle and unable to look at it a second time.

"Your Highness, those are people I know. They are in danger. I'll go first, and you can come with me later."

"But……"

"Don't worry, those monsters are no match for me."

"Flash!"

Blink should be a universal skill of Saint Karina; as long as the target's location can be locked, she can approach instantly.

"Ultimate Kill - Fire Wall!"

Logically speaking, this fused monster's body is enormous. Even if you aim at the heart, which is glowing blue, it's not easy to break through the defenses of the sea wraith that is the heart, which is surrounded by layers of sea wraiths.

But this was no problem for Saint Karina. The intense heat of the flames burned the outer layer of the sea wraith to ashes, revealing the female sea wraith inside, which served as her heart. Then, she decisively stabbed the tip of the blade into it.

Because the fire was still burning when it was stabbed in, the heart was burned to ashes when it was stabbed, the female sea vengeful spirit's body turned into powder, and finally the entire "Monster Mountain" disintegrated like a pile of mud.

Unlike temporary disintegration, those sea wraiths are still alive. Even if they fall, they can still exist as individual sea wraiths. However, after the sea wraith that forms the heart is killed, they all lose their activity, and the heart no longer glows.

"Phew—looks like I made it in time!"

With the team's crisis resolved, Saint Karina breathed a sigh of relief.

"Woo--Woo--"

So, the dark clouds brought by the sea spirits were driven away by the sunlight and scattered across the earth, accompanied by the team's triumphant cheers, making it all seem quite real.

"Your Holiness, welcome back."

179. Not present on the map

"How did you get in? Where is Philomena?"

Saint Karina was rather cold in her welcome, after all, she didn't want to be a true saint, and besides, she was planning to give Esther a good brain cleansing after this incident.

The evil god probably wouldn't fool her. As long as she gets the items from the Cloud Path, she can turn that scumbag sister Esther into someone she can't mess with.

"Lady Philomena? We haven't seen her..."

These people looked at each other, and finally spoke to Saint Karina.

"Did you also go through the 'door'?"

The map wasn't just given to her; besides the one the evil god gave her, Esther also gave her a map.

"Yes, but..."

Seeing that there weren't enough people in the team, Saint Karina understood why.

"Random teleportation..."

Although the journey was dangerous and the clergy sometimes got injured, they generally did not lose any personnel.

Because the most dangerous monster, the white tiger with wings on its back guarding the gate, is sleeping, the kind that will never wake up.

However, looking back now, it wasn't all good that the white tiger was sleeping. At least Curtis's information was wrong; it wasn't that there was a sea inside, but rather that he had mistakenly entered the white tiger's dream.

Only by exiting the passage can one enter the true world behind the door.

Santa Karina could smell the earthy odor and the dust of a place uninhabited for a long time. This smell is usually found in ancient castles that have been abandoned for a long time, where the underground spaces are not well ventilated.

Did you enter the illusion?

"Some people entered and fell into a daze, talking to themselves and attacking people randomly. Fortunately, it was only a few people, and through external influence, it did not cause too much impact in the end."

Seeing the somewhat disheveled state of everyone, Saint Karina could roughly imagine the scene of demons running rampant.

Do you know what those orbs of light above your heads are?

Esther gave her some of the information, but she just tossed it to Philomena and didn't really care about it herself.

Normally, she would ask Philomena for help when she encountered problems, but now that she couldn't find her, she had no choice but to ask other people.

"This should be a manufactured sun. However, as you can see, Your Holiness, the world behind the door is dead, and this sun has no further use except for providing light."

The sun wasn't very bright, and when Saint Karina looked at it, she didn't find it dazzling.

However, she was not in a hurry to get going, but instead planned to fly up into the sky to see the situation.

"flight--"

As Saint Karina chanted the incantation, her body was lifted by an invisible force, and the magic within her body began to slowly flow out.
