As Red said, a team made up entirely of women—honestly, it really isn’t comfortable for a man to get involved.
Red understood this clearly.
First, it was inconvenient in every way imaginable; even when they went to the bathroom, he had to wait ten minutes before he could go in.
Second, the heavy atmosphere of feminine energy made it impossible to find someone with shared interests to talk to.
Third, the pressure was intense—it even caused hair loss.
Now, thinking it over carefully, this awkward, uneasy, and out-of-place atmosphere wasn’t anything other than silent hostility.
Even if you said they were women and you had to consider their feelings, the problem was: while their feelings were cared for, who was taking care of his?
Years of traveling together, and the longtime teammates didn’t say a word.
The only person who affirmed his efforts was a white-clad Sister he had just met a few days ago.
Wasn’t that ridiculous?
“Please, you must keep this up.”
After Red said this, those around him seemed to come to their senses, and Little Head calmed down considerably.
At this moment, they all understood clearly that joining a team of all women would definitely bring a heap of trouble.
It was better to just keep the team entirely female.
Even though Dawn’s Edge was full of beautiful girls, Little Head was Little Head, Big Head was Big Head, and it wasn’t worth losing Big Head just to keep Little Head.
To put it another way, if Little Head really couldn’t bear it anymore, why not go to the succubus shop?
The girls there could satisfy every desire.
The male adventurers around them unconsciously chose to leave, leaving only a small number of female adventurers behind.
Faced with these women whose eyes shone brightly, Liz felt a bit uneasy.
This was not the outcome she wanted!
Calm down… calm down…
Before she was surrounded by other women again, Liz spoke once more.
“Red, I’ll say it again—the white Sister is fake, a fraud, you can’t trust her…”
Before Liz finished, Red interrupted her.
“Whether Litt is fake or not doesn’t matter.”
Turning his head, the man smiled.
“But she’s good to me, and that’s what counts.”
With that, Red left without looking back.
Liz was left surrounded by the other female adventurers.
She wanted to follow, but a large group blocked her stubbornly in place.
Where were her teammates?!
Couldn’t someone help?
She didn’t have time to waste discussing female role models!
Litt definitely had ill intentions—otherwise, how could she be so inexplicably kind to Red, like some kind of temptress?
***
At the same time, outside the guild, Litt sat on a stone bench by the door.
“Looks like the script’s direction wasn’t wrong.”
After receiving her White Church identification from Otto, she felt a sharp pain in her head.
Vague memories and words surfaced again in her mind.
This was exactly what had just happened inside the guild.
Red and Liz had encountered each other and were at odds, even pulling out their identities.
But luckily…
Litt looked at the White Church Badge in her hand.
She truly was a Sister of the White Church now, and except for Otto, no one knew her real identity.
This badge was genuine—no matter how thoroughly checked, it would be proven real.
Though she hated to admit it, Otto handled things efficiently and reliably.
The noise inside had died down, and Red’s speech was nearing its end.
At this moment, many male adventurers came out of the guild.
They were still discussing which succubus shop to visit that night when they suddenly felt a warm sensation beside them.
Turning around, they saw a white-clad Sister, like an angel.
Everyone fell silent.
The Sister noticed their gazes and responded with a bright and gentle smile.
“Greetings, gentlemen adventurers.”
That one sentence made everyone cover their eyes, their hearts pounding fiercely.
Damn… this was the feeling of falling in love.
“Is Red inside?”
“Yes, yes!”
“Thank you.”
Litt stood up, bowed slightly to these burly adventurers, and gave them the sweetest, gentlest smile:
“May the Lord bless you all.”
With that, she walked into the guild, leaving a group of male adventurers looking at each other in confusion.
“Bro, not gonna lie, I’m smitten.”
“Say something we don’t know.”
“Is she the white Sister Liz was talking about?”
“Seems like it? Doesn’t look like a scammer at all.”
“Don’t even say—if she really was a scammer, I’d still be happy!”
“…”
Ignoring the noisy adventurers behind her, Litt entered the guild.
The conflict between Red and Liz had temporarily paused.
Kariel returned to the front desk and sighed softly.
“Sister, hello. May I ask where Red is?”
Kariel barely looked up, almost blinded by Litt’s radiant smile.
“Red? Red’s over there…”
“Thank you.”
Following Kariel’s indication, Litt soon spotted Red’s figure.
He was in the corner, talking to that little demon about something—probably a quest.
Meanwhile, Liz was still being pestered by those female adventurers.
Seeing her captain’s situation, Litt naturally… chose to ignore it.
“Red, how’s the quest negotiation going?”
Hearing that familiar voice behind him, Red was startled.
He hadn’t expected Litt to come to the guild.
“Aren’t you going to the monastery?”
“I went,”
Litt said, putting her hands behind her back and smiling.
“But I was a bit worried, so I came to check things out. If the quest isn’t suitable, I can help you switch to another one.”
“You’re Litt?”
The little demon in front of Red finally spoke up.
She had been there earlier and, though she didn’t want to eavesdrop, had overheard some of the argument and conversation.
“Mm-hmm, nice to meet you. Can you tell me your name? Let’s be friends.”
“Tessaya.”
Obviously, Tessaya hadn’t expected Litt to treat her so warmly.
“I’m a demon. Aren’t you afraid of me?”
Normally, the Church’s attitude toward demons was no better than toward heretics, so Tessaya was understandably nervous when Litt approached.
“No, Miss Tessaya, you’re so cute—why would I be afraid?”
Litt put her hands together in a prayer gesture.
“As for demons? It’s fine. Our Lord embraces all, demons included, so I would never discriminate against or hate demons.”
Hearing this, Tessaya fell silent for a moment—not because she was moved, but because this sudden kindness was unfamiliar and unsettling.
As a demon, she had never felt this before.
She was always alone.
When she tried to recruit others, once they saw she was a demon, they all left as if escaping for their lives.
Meanwhile, Liz finally escaped her tormentors.
She looked up, only to see the fake white Sister that Bethany had warned her about!
“You fake Sister, what exactly do you want?”
“Fake Sister?”
Litt turned to look at Liz and pulled out her ID.
It was a White Church Badge, bearing the name “Litt Alvis.”
“You may doubt everything about me, but never my devotion to the Lord.”
Seeing the ID in her hand, Liz was stunned.
How could she be real?
And for some reason, Liz felt that Litt’s kind smile carried a hint of mockery.
…Just like that prankster in the team.
