“Seal it! Seal it! It absolutely has to be sealed!”

When Li returned to her original appearance the noble ladies gradually began regaining their senses.

The first one to recover completely was the saint.

As soon as she stood up she immediately spoke to Li.

“Honestly! What kind of thing have you created!”

“That’s unreasonable, Erika!”

“Sealing that would be outrageous!”

Lady Alberta and Lady Patricia both protested fiercely.

“You idiots! Excessive desire will destroy you!”

It was quite a line befitting a saint.

However hearing something so sensible from her made the two noble ladies stare in shock.

Lady Alberta stepped closer to the saint.

“Erika, do you have a fever?”

She even placed a hand on the saint’s forehead.

It was not sarcasm.

Her expression showed genuine concern.

But the saint’s body was trembling.

“You do realize you’re being incredibly rude right now, don’t you?”

“But it’s strange for Erika to say something so reasonable.”

In Lady Alberta’s mind past incidents of the saint’s blunders flashed by like scenes in a lantern show.

“If you say that then the only option left is war!”

The saint shifted into a half stance and bounced lightly on her feet.

Then she wiped under her nose and curled her fingers upward toward Alberta in a beckoning gesture.

“Come at me! Hwah-cha!”

Just as the clubroom was about to fall into a dangerous atmosphere Li clapped her hands.

“Alright, that’s enough. Ally, you went too far as well.”

At Li’s words Lady Alberta obediently said, “I’m sorry.”

“That’s something you should say to Erika.”

“My apologies. Erika, I went too far. I withdraw my words and apologize.”

“…Fine.”

The saint released a long breath as if letting her anger escape.

“In the future be careful not to let your words slip… ahn.”

Just as the saint was about to lower her spear.

Her head suddenly drooped.

“The presumptuous cat god of corruption has been punished. Forget what happened earlier. The Lord above is always watching. Do as you will.”

The voice was clearly different from the saint’s usual one.

Moreover divine light was leaking from her body.

All the noble ladies except Li immediately dropped to their knees and bowed their heads.

It was a divine oracle.

That was also the reason the saint possessed the title of Saint.

“Understood.”

Perhaps satisfied with Li’s response.

Whatever had descended upon the saint gave a small nod.

At the same time the divine light faded and the saint seemed to regain consciousness.

“Huh?”

“Erika, there was a divine oracle.”

“Yeah… I know.”

The saint’s expression suggested she was hesitating over whether she should say anything.

“It’s alright. I understood the general situation. If you’re unsure then it’s better not to say anything.”

“Yeah, you’re right. Thanks, Li.”

Li thought about it.

Most likely the cat god had gotten carried away and granted that divine artifact.

And the goddess who had given Li her blessing had noticed it.

‘Was it jealousy? Possessiveness? Or some other emotion?’

Li could not understand the thoughts of gods.

However there was one thing she did understand.

The goddess who had given her blessing must be a high-ranking existence.

And thinking about it now Li felt embarrassed remembering how much she had complained before her reincarnation.
