Girl Hero: Revenge on Goblins!-Chapter 825: 296: Balsam (Part 2)

Capítulo 825: Chapter 296: Balsam (Part 2)

The girl’s presence turned the ruins of this chapel into a supreme work of art, captivating people and making them want to keep looking.

But this tranquility didn’t last long. In the next moment, the girl raised her head in surprise and found herself staring into the slightly innocent eyes of a Sea Shrimp.

“…Oh no, how did I end up inside the room?”

[Is there anyone (3+Gleaming Scale Serpent, 5+others present)]

The Hero, awakened from a long slumber and noticing the drastic change in surroundings, quickly recalled the Sea Shrimp who was instinctively causing trouble before the colossal entity’s outer body incarnation could cause further commotion.

Without the Sea Shrimp to shield it, sunlight poured through the ceiling, illuminating the debris above and below her. Her Emerald Eye darted between sides, not knowing where to settle her gaze. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The rubble of the ruins failed to fall upon her, forming an irregular circle at some distance away.

Tiny raindrops formed a hazy curtain, obscuring the girl’s expression—

somewhat awkward, somewhat uneasy.

The autumn wind carried a trace of chill, and the sky seemed bluer and loftier than she remembered.

This little chapel was likely established by the Church to protect the sleeping her. Given her current status as the Saintess Agent, naturally, no one would hold her accountable for the destruction she caused here.

‘How wonderful, my power as the Saintess is supreme.’

Ignoring the self-revelations of another self-absorbed, and the Sea Shrimp’s speechless silence, although reason quickly deduced why she was indoors and that she was in a safe position where she wouldn’t be blamed, the Hero couldn’t help but lower her head unrelated to reason.

…Eh?

The markedly different height from the past made her blink in surprise, and what was even more surprising—

She could actually see obstructions!

And not minor ones!

In the Hero’s heart surfaced the image of the distant, ancient figure of a sailing ancestor gradually disappearing.

However, before she could carefully measure her various changes, her Emerald Eye pierced through the curtain of rain, detecting the presence of others in the chapel.

Among them, excitedly looking at her, eyes filled with joy and admiration without concealment, was naturally the trustworthy familiar, Gleaming Scales, who had accompanied her all the way from her hometown until now.

And the other one—

1.4. “Hero Sister!”

2.5. Siren Princess

3.6. Stranger

7. Dusk Fairy

8. Shadow

9. Illusion

10. Great Success/Extreme Failure

♛: Noble Lady

“Hero Sister!”

Seeing her dear friend merging three strides into two, rushing towards her with a face full of joy, the Hero also opened her arms with a smile, easily catching the Noble Lady’s figure that jumped into her embrace.

The scarlet flame dress wrapped around the Hero didn’t scorch the Noble Lady, but instead, let her feel a wave of warmth under the instinctive acceptance of a friend.

Looking at the Noble Lady, who was now a head shorter in her arms, the Hero felt a bit bewildered amid her happiness.

Even though seeing a chapel erected around her, the Hero realized that the flow of time in her awakening was not proportional to reality, much like a short dream from which one wakes up to find it’s already the next morning.

Yet, comparing with her friend, the drastic change in herself gave rise to a surreal sense of the passage of time.

Clearly, before her slumber, their heights were quite similar.

A period of more than a year, while not extremely long, was enough to bring earth-shattering changes for a young girl in the prime of her youth.

“How much time has passed? Have you been here the whole time?”

Upon hearing this, the Noble Lady lifted her head from the Hero’s embrace, her petite nose twitching slightly.

Then she took a deep breath, saying seriously:

“Hero Sister, you smell really nice.”

Although extremely surprised at the Hero’s major change, after personally experiencing that motherly softness, the insignificant sense of unfamiliarity was immediately cast aside by the Noble Lady.

“Don’t respond with strange thoughts to a question.”

The flame on the Hero’s body flared up momentarily, playfully skimming across the Noble Lady’s pinkish cheeks, prompting her to jump back with a yelp, only to cheerfully return to the Hero’s side shortly afterwards.

“It’s been over a year, but it’s Gleaming Scale who has been staying here all this time, I just dropped by often.”

Upon hearing this, the Gleaming Scale Serpent beside watched this heartwarming scene with glee, a long-unseen black cat perched on his shoulder.

Seeing the Hero glancing over, the Gleaming Scale Serpent slightly bowed in salutation.

“This is my duty.”

Understanding her familiar’s temperament well, the Hero didn’t say much. However, seeing the cleric robe on him piqued her curiosity about what had transpired during the past year or so.

The black cat also leapt down from Gleaming Scale Serpent’s shoulder, raising a paw towards the Hero in greeting.

“It’s been quite a while since we’ve seen each other; how come I haven’t seen you before?”

The Hero squatted down with a smile, gently scratching the black cat’s chin.

Though her abilities were now considerably different, the black cat, proud as the Night Tiger itself, enjoyed the girl’s touch comfortably for a while before leaping suddenly onto the Noble Lady’s shoulder.

“Because in the Saintess selection there was a rule against bringing familiars, so it was training on the border frontline the whole time.” The Noble Lady smiled, patting the black cat’s head as she explained.

A year ago, during her special training with the Border Count, she formally contracted with the black cat.

Being a high-level demon, upon reaching adulthood, the black cat’s power could rival that of a Demon King, standing out even among the formidable ranks of the border.
