"Huh..." The black-haired girl stared at Xia Xin for a few seconds, then let out a soft "hehe" laugh. "Little Sorceress, you're really amusing. Hey~ what's your name?"
"Just call me Xia Xin."
"Sounds like you're not from around here~" the black-haired girl said. "I'm Remiel Francisco. Nice to meet you."
As expected, another ridiculously tongue-twisting name.
But... it somehow felt familiar.
Drawing from past experiences, Xia Xin quickly realized this girl might be another romanceable character from that adult game's original story.
Why another underage girl again? (annoyed)
What kind of game was this? It was utterly misleading—the female characters' average age hadn't even hit eighteen!
Xia Xin's heart surged with excitement once more.
This game was awesome.
Ahem... Calm down. Wait, what was this name's role again? Let me recall carefully...
Snap—
A faint sound came from the side. Remiel turned to see a dead mouse scurry onto a nearby table, grabbing food and gnawing furiously.
"Mice in the cafeteria... what a mood killer." Remiel stretched out her hand. Golden light flared, summoning a massive crucifix. She slammed it down hard.
"Boom!"
The deafening crash shook the ground violently. A crack split the wall. The table shattered into two halves, blood pooling beneath.
So... so terrifying!
Poor little mouse was definitely gone now. (sadly)
Xia Xin stared at Remiel and her huge crucifix. A familiar figure flashed in her mind... along with some indescribable CG scenes.
Holy Maiden!
Remiel Francisco—that was the Holy Maiden's name in that adult game!
But compared to the all-encompassing, magnanimous Holy Maiden from the CGs, this girl seemed... just a tiny bit smaller.
Thinking of the future Demon King Xila... Xia Xin wondered if some major plot event had triggered a worldwide secondary growth spurt for all girls.
That sounded like good news.
Yet this Remiel shared only the name with the Holy Maiden—everything else was utterly unrelated.
In the original game, the Holy Maiden symbolized kindness and purity. She followed the Hero, converting enemies and helping conquer targets.
Overall, a devout nun with a stunning figure perfectly showcased under her habit... hehehe... ahem! Not the point.
The real issue: why was the Holy Maiden before her now a violent maniac swinging her crucifix at the slightest provocation?
And so petite.
Xia Xin felt too excited... no, too disappointed. She wasn't into lolis.
But seeing that crucifix—bigger than Remiel herself—Xia Xin's mind was completely free of lewd thoughts.
Thankfully, Remiel hadn't realized her Calamity Witch identity yet. One hit from that crucifix would cost her half her life.
First, check Remiel's info...
[Remiel Francisco, Level: Lv95]
[The sole Holy Maiden of the Western Church. Wields the purest Holy Light, resisting all dark magic. Her intensely trained body can lift a crucifix weighing several tons.]
[Danger Level: Beware of forced advances]
Gulping... How could her tiny frame carry several tons?
Xia Xin finally grasped it: "A daughter grows strong enough to move mountains and awe the world."
But what the heck was this "forced advances" warning?
Aside from strength, magic, and figure, how was she inferior? She'd never be overpowered!
One glance at the mouse's fate... She should make a run for it while Remiel wasn't looking!
As for the unconscious Xila?
Who cared? Self-preservation first.
"By the way, little Xia Xin," Remiel smiled, "where did everyone here go? I heard the Calamity Witch was captured. Know where she is?"
"Th-this... well." Xia Xin waved frantically, backing toward the exit. "No idea! Never even heard of her!"
"Oh? The Calamity Witch is infamous. You really don't know?" Remiel's smile didn't waver.
More than infamous—downright notorious.
"Um, why would I know about her?" Xia Xin stammered. "If nothing else, I'll just..."
"Boom!"
Remiel swung her crucifix, slamming it into the wall beside Xia Xin. She stepped forward, knee pressing against Xia Xin's lower abdomen, face inches away—pinning her in a supercharged wall-pinning pose.
"Calamity Witch," Remiel whispered, "my mission is to eliminate you physically and psychologically. But... I'm quite fond of you~ Just do exactly as I say next..."
"Un-understood!" Xia Xin nodded instantly. "Holy Maiden, I'll obey anything you do!"
She hated this cowardly act, but refusal meant that several-ton crucifix forcing compliance.
Worse, chains or spears might burst from it, tying her up for some kinky play.
"Mm, such obedience." Remiel patted Xia Xin's head, smiling. "Tia would've skewered you by now. Only I'm this kind... Moved, little Xia Xin~"
Don't move. Don't move.
Xia Xin suspected Tia and Remiel's personalities had been swapped during creation. Why was the Holy Maiden so aggressively forward?
Ugh... Captain Tia! Compared to the suddenly horny future Demon King, the devious interrogator, and this martial-arts-overflowing Holy Maiden, Captain Tia now seemed incredibly normal and kind!
"Alright~ Don't be nervous, little Xia Xin." Remiel retracted her crucifix. "I have a fun task needing your help. Complete it well... and it might just save you from prison."
