As I entered the room, I saw a lone beauty sitting elegantly… I just got out from a sensual experience, but now I had to come and see a saintly beauty? Life can be crap sometimes… well at least she is dressed modestly, with such a heavy attire, I can't even tell her curves. well her boobs are still prominent. man... I really have to tone down my perverseness I am getting worse after coming back from the empire.
"It is a pleasure to meet you Holy one…" she said, making me feel that she might respect me…
"Wait, don't call me that please… I already relinquished that title. Just call me Rekka. You are an esteemed saint, I am not that great compared to that." I really hate that title… It reminds me of that dreadful day…
"Alright Sir Rekka.. It is a pleasure to meet you. I am Janes Hope.`` As she said so, I told her to sit and I sat too. The tea was quickly prepared and the room was emptied. I can never get used to the maids' silent and fast working speed.
"Now Miss Saint, can you tell me the reason for your visit?" Since she looked a bit Irritated now, I tried to be polite but she looked even more dejected at me. What's her deal?
"Her Holiness has sent offerings for your help in solving our problems." If that was the only case then this meeting could finish fast, I got a bit hopeful.
"Oh… although I didn't do anything much, I will accept the offerings…"
"...."
"Is that all?...." Since the saint looked like she was being too silent, I asked her… if that was all I can go back!
"Yes… can I ask you something?" the saint Asked.
"Yes, what is it?"
"You killed so many people mercilessly… but why do I still see the divine light on you? And it's quite thick…"
"What?" Her question caught me off guard.. She may be talking about the divine element that I could use… but I wonder how she could see it. no.... she could see it considering she is immortal... in a sense... but hmm.... it seems we are missing some info here... I don't actually have the light per say the system collects it...
This was not spirit energy, after the System had analyzed it, the system clearly said that this energy was even more refined than lifeforce. So it was clearly unperceivable to human eyes and same with other species, only spirits and other gods or angels should be able to see it.
"I mean a man like you who takes women as trophies after a war should hardly be loved by god…"
"Wait wait… I feel like you are insulting me…." I said, breaking out of my thoughts.
"You are rather slow… but yes.. I feel that what you did was wrong, even though her holiness feels indebted to you, I feel like you are the worst human alive…"
I think this was the first time I heard criticism from a girl in my 3rd life but it did get me angry… this girl ruins my moment with Leila then comes rambling about what I had done wrong…?
I mean I know that I was cruel with how I handled the Empire but it's not like I am a heartless murderer.. I even saved people while I could. Let's keep that at the side. what gets this girl the right to judge me actually?!
"Tell me what would you have done then?" I asked in a calm tone suppressing my rage. She was surprised but answered.
"If you are that powerful, You should have threatened the empire and made them obey you not outright do mass murder. We could have come to an understanding."
"Your opinion is…." AS I stretched the word she leaned in as if to hear that she was right.
"S-H-I-T!….." Hearing me, the Saint looked flabbergasted. I don't think anyone talked to her like this because she got flustered seeing me badmouth her idea. her face contorted into a grimace hearing me.
"A barbarian like you could hardly understand my Idea!" but hearing me, she got angry and shouted equally irritatedly. Wow, the patience of the saint was really thin.
"Seeing as you were so talented, why did your mother have to come to me seeking my help!? I only met her that very day but she cried her heart out to me. Why didn't she approach you?" Suddenly hearing that, the Saint looked bewildered.
"B-but.."
"No buts! If you were so intelligent and someone who is not a barbarian, you wouldn't have just thought about the people that suffered far away. You would have looked at your mother and your friends, the priests, the citizens who looked at you while you suffered… it only brought gloom to their lives. the more you look ahead the more you turn your back to the shadow."
"That has nothing to do with what you did! I just did what felt right to me!" she protested as such.
"That's it! That was the thing I wanted to hear from you! You went ahead and made a spell to suffer yourself. What did that bring? That brought your mother to me.. And then I took action! If you really think that way, then this was all your fault." I said pushing my hand down the table with a thump. The cups with teas halfway filled vibrated but did not spelt any tea.
"What….? How can you say that! So what? I suffered. I saved many people's lives with only some pain on myself.. It has in no way influenced the deeds you did!"
"Ha ha, the world isn't that easy miss saint… if you think people can be happy as long as only you suffer then this war wouldn't have happened.." I said mockingly.
"..."
"I don't blame you for calling me a mass murderer but let me tell you, this was the only way possible to get our countries safe. So what.. With me being called that in the next 100 years a good civilization will grow up."
"I see… even though you murder people in cold blood, you say it as if it was a noble deed." the saint looked as if I was a monster who was beyond teaching.
"Yes I do, if you have a problem with my judgement, then go ahead and fix your problems yourself. Not to say, I have no obligation to waste my life fixing ruined cultures and countries, time is precious, I will spend every bit of it with my loved ones, so whatever you say, I wholeheartedly think my decisions were on point and the quickest way to do things.. I have better things to do like spend time with my family and protect their future as we move forward."
As I formed a rather strong point, the saint of the church moved onto a new subject to condemn me.
"Aside from that, you even took the princess as your trophy…." this girl was annoying… she believed in rumors too much… it was true that to the world that was the truth. but she could have just asked me what was what... but it seems she is hell bent on blaming me whatever the reason.
Since she thinks that I am a bad boy anyway I think I will keep it at that. It is easier to not fix her.
"Why yes. I did take her, just the way I bought Acadia the wealthy merchant, and after saving the Stein kingdom then taking their princess, let's not forget my love Leila and her Sister who I also love Alice…! I took all of them as trophies from my adventures.. Since I already have a saintly princess from the empire, don't get your hopes up Miss saint, I don't need a high maintenance girl like you." as I said so she was left flabbergasted. ahh... it was so fulfilling to throw her such criticism the only one who could lecture me is Leila, any other girl.... and things turn out like this... sheesh...
"You think of women as nothing but your items from adventuring don't you?"
"Yeah, but be warned once I get an Item, I will not let it out of my hand any more. I am very careful you know?" well it was very hard to subdue my will and wait for Leila to be ready for our first time. can't I saw I really am careful then?
"How can you so brazenly talk like that!"
"Come on, you don't have to take it to heart, you may not be as beautiful as my fiancées, you are still a girl, someone will eventually like you." as I taunted her with a cheeky grin she on the other hand got completely furious. is this what feels to have the higher ground? I wasn't single and I can lord over them as much as I want.... no.... this girl... she brings out my sadistic side too...
"A-all my life people have said I am beautiful. People want to marry me all over the world!"
"Hey, shouldn't you be a nun? How can you say such brazen things?" as I asked her, it seemed that she had said those words unable to contain her rage.
Rather than that, to think she couldn't stand me criticizing her beauty, I guess just like me, she has also been criticized for the first time in life.
"I.. I… It was all your fault, you are even trying to get a saint to be humiliated by you…. I see you clearly want me… I knew that all men were the same and here I thought that a man loved by god could really be someone…." she was getting hysteric…. I wonder when I had even talked about asking for her. no I think there was something about herself that is the problem not me.... did she want something else from me?
"I hate to break it to you Lady but as much as I would have liked you, after meeting you, I can see that I will not try to get it on with you." I started speaking bluntly. Either this girl had a thing for me or she was here to show her hatred towards me.
"Such vulgar words… I can't believe I looked up to you for a short while. My dreams are nothing but nightmares now." she said as if being dejected. she looked up to me? but why?
"Wow that is news to me.. I can't believe I thought that the saint was a pure girl worthy to be loved by god too, but here I see someone judging others over no basis." of course I won't let her comment go, I thoroughly rebuked her words.
"I am glad that Mother didn't tell me to marry you! I would have died in no time, unable to suffer your barbarianism!" I wonder when our quarrel got drifted off from the empire to us marrying.
"Sigh…. Say… can you tell me why you are angry at me again?" I really didn't know why she was so angry even from the start.
"You! You are unbearable! You killed that many soldiers in cold blood!" bringing our point of talk to the main subject, I cleared my throat and said to the Saint. This time albeit sounding more serious and furious from earlier..
"Do you know? I found nearly a thousand girls locked in a tent that was worse than any dumpster I had seen, they were half dead, starved, bruised from men being too rough with them, there were more than 2 thousand of those girls brought to the soldiers camp but by the time I got to find them, I only found less than half the amount of girls. And all of them were at death's door… If you want me to talk things over with those men while those girls died in captivity… then I would ask you to kindly trade places with them." At my harsh words the saint got silent.
"What happened to the girls…" she asked timidly..
"Why of course they are at my mansion now!" As I thought she would stop cursing me at how magnanimous I was to take care of so many girls, the end result was completely different. She looked rather angry at what I had done. Even more angry than ever.
"You mean you took them in like your trophy too!?" as if that was the only thing that got to her head, she framed me as a mass murderer and a perverted dog in heat.
"I think you are getting on years lady… you have gone senile…." I said pinching my temples, this saint clearly had hots and perverted thoughts in her head. They did say the more diligent they were, the more perverted they were on the inside.
"You think I am old?! Even as I am, I can easily feel men's disgusting gazes at me, even though you seem to look composed now, as soon as I take off this veil I am sure you would give the same disgusting gaze as them too."
"Yeah yeah dream on." I blew her haughty talk off. I know I looked at my maids and girlfriend
With at least some pervy thoughts but I was sure I was not that kind of man to ogle over every girl I saw.
"Here I will show you the unworthy barbarian, my beauty!" she still did what she said. I wonder where all this is going …. Wasn't I supposed to wrap this meeting fast and go to my Leila?
"Even though you are a saint you say some vulgar things."
"Shut up!" as She shouted and removed the cloth wrapped around her head and veiling her face, I saw her now unrestrained hair flow freely, her face that came out in full display. It did make her look a lot more appealing but I actually preferred her look with the veil.
Maybe since she was wearing a nuns outfit but I felt nuns were better when they looked respectful rather than appealing and sensual.
"Now you look like you're trying too hard. You looked better before." as I said so not becoming angry she actually got embarrassed…
"I see you must have trapped those princesses using your sweet talk! But I will not falter!"
"I hardly praised you girl… you must be thirsty.."
"What!?" It accidentally got out of my mouth, but she actually knows some odd meanings and expressions…
"N-noting… you should let off some steam if you are so stressed."
"Don't spout nonsense! A proper lady doesn't do that stuff!"
"Heee… stop those lies, if you're done with your job then go home, I wanna go and be with my girlfriends!" I said brushing her off with a shooing expression with my hands.
"No matter how jealous you make me feel, I will never get trapped by you." Why does her last words come down to this?
"Listen saint.. I am not even trying to get you to fall for me… If I were serious, a girl as naïve as you would have been in my grasp in no time." As I said so, the saint stood up and showed a defenseless pose.
"Try me.. I will never falter." This does it. I may not like to force girls but this one clearly wants punishments.
Her attitude is really vexing me. It was male instinct really, once a girl clearly challenges a man's patience… I don't know about every man but I really would like to put that girl in her place. even more so for a girl who was on her high horse.
As I moved at great speed and knocked her over the couch she was sitting on, she looked bewildered.
"Don't tempt a lion even if his belly is full.. He will still strike you if you taunt him." as I said so I moved close to her face. she was too flustered to handle all this. As I got near her ear I blew air softly…
"Ahhhh!.."
"Such a sensual moan.. I haven't even started yet…"
"You think you can have my heart if you get my body?" she did say bold words but her earliest cheekiness was gone. Her flustered face was just tantalizing.. Wasn't she supposed to be annoying?
As I sniffed near her neck, a really nice smell mesmerized me. I had to say for such a high maintenance girl, she could really be worth it…
"Your scent… did you prepare for an outcome like this?"
"What?!- th-th-that can never happen!" her words betrayed her tone of voice, doesn't she sound a lot more excited? a girl who was distressed would be more panicking? Iliya was like that...
"Whatever you say… but I will take full value of this chance. Fear not, no one should come in." seeing that I still wasn't clear of the case, I pushed more dominance.
"Did you prepare this room early on thinking about this outcome as well?" she asked as if she was now trapped.
"Sadly I am not that bright in those scheming's. But my capable maid surely is." As I said, I kissed her neck… she shivered a bit at the sensation of my lips sucking her and let out a shrill voice..
"Stop teasing me… do what you want and get it over with!"
"I don't know what you know about intimate relationships but there are many steps before crossing the line. You have to comfort the girl. Let her feel safe with you, have her feel your love, then try to tease her and make her want you. At last when she wants you so badly that… she wouldn't let go. You can cross the line…" hearing me, the Saint got even more redder. If I use the teachings of my big sis Mai and my granny Melinda by their guarantee, the girl should follow that line of thought.
"You seem to be too skilled at this!" ignoring her words… me who had graduated with a degree in how to in bed… I moved forward.
"Janes Hope… your name Janes it means God is gracious… it suits you really well.."
She was surprised but more flustered by my words… of course those were just tricky words, to make her more flustered. thankfully I knew the meaning of Janes.
"It suits you… only some with that name could think about talking with the enemy without killing them… but I am different… I can't think like that…" as I said, getting our bodies closer… I felt her heartbeat was so fast I could literally hear it.
"What if I t-told you that I wanted to talk to them… would you have helped me?" maybe she thought over my lines and came to ask that question... that was actually possible... but the empire was already gone.
"Well as my weakness, I can't deny if a beautiful girl asks of me… no matter how annoying she could be."
"Maybe many more lives could have been saved if we could work together…" I wonder why but her tone changed quite a bit.. She didn't look hatefully at me…
"If you said those lines earlier, I wouldn't have been here like this, you know?"
"True…." She was completely different now. Was all her furious talk just a ruse? But it was my fault. No matter what I thought, this girl was different, she saw someone's true nature from their divine light, as she had firstly said, I was draped in that light so thick even she questioned my existence.
So after all my point of talk to clear out my way as the only way to handle the situation, she could only deny it in front. But inside she was completely done by my reasoning. she was just stubborn that's all. or maybe she was furious over me solving her problem just like that.... that could be the case too.
For the reason she was so easy, it was because she had come to like me from the time she had heard about me, I had left the holy city without any concern for money, fame or respect.
It was something that she felt only the one loved by god can do. Even if she heard bad things about me, after I had complimented her, Janes could hardly keep on a hard-face. no even if all the things she said is true in a sense and I really did bad things, my light had already moved her, she just wasn't accepting the fact.
That said, this girl was already head over heels for me… and wow… Was this dramatic or what? Well I will only know about this later when we come to make a relationship in real life.
Now though, I was clearly taking advantage of her. Boy, I was sure now that I came to be the great philander Melinda's successor for sure.
...…..
I kissed her lightly on the lips… this girl seemed easy…. After the first kiss actually, I could also see her eagerness… as we continued kissing, my hands went out of control and groped her chest and ass at the same time. there was a heavy layer of clothing covering her but I could still feel how soft she was.
"Ah… mmm..." she may be viewed as a saint outside but right now she was a simple girl…. She looked so fragile. But earlier she looked like a strong willed woman. Even now as I was doing this, I had no idea how it had come down to this...
I don't know how long we were like that… but soon I could see that my hunger was increasing… this girl… If I went any further… I would be Breaking my promise with Leila.. But I just can't seem to get out of this lewd situation.
If I pull back, she comes forward… and now she even locked her hands around my neck….. My hands had already reached some dangerous places… If I were not kissing her, then the moans would have been heard… but I never thought that I could go this far with any girl after meeting for only 20 or 30 minutes.
"Janes…. This isn't ...g-good… I have to…."
"Wait.. just…" I couldn't get out of her hands… by some mystery, I was now pinned down by her. Her hands were reaching dangerous places… I had to say….THIS DOES NOT LOOK GOOD!
[Just get her to finish first! Then you don't have to cross the line!]
Sometimes in life, many unexpected things happen. Like this. While it took many long months to get close to Leila, this single girl nearly took my virginity in under 30 minutes….
