Alisa planted her greatsword in the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally finished."

With Rudy as their super support, they didn't need to conserve magic at all, making this dungeon raid a near-perfect success.

Ignoring the glittering treasure chest, Alisa's gaze involuntarily fell on Rudy.

"Rudy, would you be interested in joining the church?"

She extended an invitation directly.

"Sorry, I'm not interested at the moment."

Alyssa frowned upon being rejected. "With your abilities, you would definitely be highly valued if you went to the church. I can recommend you to my master so that you can become a paladin."

"Your master?"

“That’s right!” Alisa smiled smugly and said:

"My master is Diluc, the Spear Hero, one of the Seven Heroes."

“I, Tok, and Aaron are all his disciples.”

“Rudy, you should know that before my master took me to the church, I was just a Muggle, but with my master’s guidance, we have all become powerful paladins.”

“If you go to church, you will definitely gain something.”

Rudy's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"You mean, none of the three of you had any magic before?"

"Yes. Although it's a secret, Master didn't intend for us to keep it a secret, because the light of the Church will spread throughout the entire continent, giving everyone, even the most powerless, the strength to protect their loved ones!"

"This is also my ideal. I never want to see my village destroyed by monsters again. Rudy, you should think about it carefully."

Alisa looked at him seriously for a moment, then sat down on the ground to rest.

Tok and Aaron, on the other hand, went over to open the treasure chest with great enthusiasm.

This time, I got a set of glittering golden armor.

The kind that covers the whole body.

It looks very valuable.

Rudy sat down next to Alisa, leaning against the wall as well, and looked at her pretty face with great interest.

"Is it true that the Church can turn Muggles into messengers of God?"

“Of course it’s true.” Alisa nodded and continued:

"However, the technology is not mature yet. Out of thousands of paladin candidates, only the three of us succeeded."

"Rudy, we need you."

"To be more precise, it requires your light attribute."

Rudy paused, then shook his head and smiled:

"Is it really okay for you to state your purpose so directly? I have no interest in becoming someone else's guinea pig or being studied by others."

Alisa shrugged indifferently, looked at the golden greatsword in her hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Because I believe in myself, I'm sure I can convince you."

"Uh...why? Who gave you that confidence?"

Rudy stared at her speechlessly.

Are you sure this girl isn't mentally unstable?

Alisa turned her head, looked steadily at him, and said, word by word:

You'll find out.

"But not now."

Rudy: "..."

Speechless.

They're keeping us in suspense.

At this moment, Alisa was covered in sweat from the strenuous exercise.

Combined with her slender figure, she looks very attractive.

Her cold, aloof face, coupled with that sharp, edgy aura, created an indescribable beauty.

She's the epitome of a long, straight, black-haired Sailor Moon.

Alisa wore white armor and tall boots, her long, shapely legs were very well-proportioned.

Because of the battle, her skirt was torn, and her armor was damaged, revealing a fair and delicate shoulder.

Following Rudy's perspective.

Delicate collarbone.

A touch of snow-white.

The deep ravines are quite captivating.

Rudy suspected that she was showing it to him on purpose.

So he took a few more glances.

While he was stealing glances, Alisa pretended not to see him and focused on resting and recovering her strength.

Rudy's healing magic was very effective.

But it's not a panacea.

The body needs time to recover naturally.

Otherwise, that would just be squeezing the body's potential.

Thinking of the task Master Diluc had given her, Alisa gritted her teeth and made up her mind.

Let him watch if he wants.

She had also considered using her beauty as a weapon.

The atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous for a moment.

Alisa's cheeks were also a little red.

Although she usually acts cold and has a capable, bossy demeanor, being stared at like that by a boy, especially on purpose, makes her feel even more ashamed.

Rudy looked at her figure with great interest, a smile playing on his lips.

"Rudy, you can take this armor!"

Tok and Aaron walked over. Tok glanced at the armor reluctantly before handing it to Aaron.

"Why, don't you want it?"

"Thanks to your healing magic along the way, otherwise we would definitely have perished here," Aaron said shyly, quickly lowering his head.

"Moreover, as paladin candidates, once we return to the church and are promoted to full paladins, we will have a set of exclusive armor, so giving it to you is the most suitable option."

"Okay, then I'll accept it."

Rudy put the armor into his badge.

The glittering golden armor looks pretty cool.

Rudy thought he could find an opportunity to stand on a lamppost, cosplay as the King of Heroes, and call everyone "scum" all the time.

That scene…

"You scum, who gave you permission to look up at me?"

hey-hey!

That's great!

Who hasn't had a period of being a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur)?

There was a time when I also dreamed of becoming light.
