Yurification Systems
Chapter 27 - Saintess's Association

[Congratulations Lily-chan! Lily-chan is now officially a Saintess!]

The S-Saintess?

I was very surprised by the words of the Goddess.

The saintess? I-I became a Saintess?

W-Is that possible?

[Of course, because I have chosen Lily-chan as my representative in this world. Oh, by the way, in this world there is not only one Goddess. So, there were still other Saintess with different Goddesses scattered in this world.]

Eh? Doesn't every kingdom have one Saintess?

[Lily-chan, the Saintess who is in the kingdom is not our chosen Saintess. The saintess that exists in every human kingdom is a human choice. They have no direct power from us.]

[Oh, there are some Saintess who came to visit.]

[Iuh! They look cute but Lily-chan is much more cute and sweet.]

Right after the Goddess said that sentence, I could feel a small tremor in the ground getting stronger. The scene this morning suddenly became bright and bathed in a warm light.

The increasingly powerful earth shocks made some of the people gathered in this place panic.

From a distance, I could see a giant white fox with nine tails bathed in golden light.

Em, Goddess..

Is that giant fox dangerous?

[Aah! No, she was a Saintess who served the Goddess of nature. He came here to greet Saintess who had just been born.]

Eh? That fox is Saintess?

He came to see me?

From a distance, the fox changed the appearance of his body into a little fox and walked up to me.

Mio stood in front of me while holding a sword in her hand.

"Mio, relax. He came to see me" I said to calm the situation.

Unlike the Mio who stood in front of me to protect me. Alice and Alyssa tightly hugged my arms to dampen their fear.

Marquess Rommel immediately formed a circular formation to protect the Queen who was still sitting on the ground.

The golden-tailed fox walked past Mio and sat in front of me.

"Um, greetings. My name is Lily Schwartz De Rommel" I said to introduce myself.

The fox noticed the shape of my body then its body was bathed in a golden colored light and formed its body into a fox human figure wearing Shrine Maiden clothes.

Her appearance was the same as the fox girl I had seen but the difference was her tail bathed in golden light.

"Greetings, Lily-chan. I am the Saintess who serves the Goddess of nature, Ciel. When the Goddess of nature told me about the new Saintess that was about to be born, I was very curious and surprised to find out if the Saintess was born from a human descendant. Humm.. The hum.. Huuum..??" the fox who introduced himself as Ciel again observed my appearance.

"Um, is there something wrong with my appearance? ask me.

Ciel shook his head.

"I'm very interested in the clothes Lily-chan is wearing. It looks very suitable for a Saintess" Ciel replied.

"Ah, Uhm, Thank you."

"Lily-chan, can I replicate her form to share with another Saintess?" ciel's question confused me to answer.

However, I could see Mio's smile feeling proud when her handmade clothes caught the attention of another Saintess.

Ah, speaking of Saintess.

Was Saintess the choice of another Goddess not of human descent?

The sky light suddenly darkened. A huge red-skinned dragon figure adorned the ceiling. The huge dragon flew down towards me and enveloped his body using a golden aura. The impact of the dragon's body did not cause any major damage when it landed.

"Ara~ Ciel is here?" said the dragon with a big voice.

"Welcome, Sia. Did you come to visit our new friend?" reply Ciel.

"Huum~ this little girl our new friend?" the dragon is watching me.

The dragon figure slowly turned into a dragon girl wearing the same clothes as Ciel.

Uh, does this mean the Shrine Maiden becomes the official uniform for Saintess?

"Such good clothes! Little Saintess, what is the name of this outfit?" ask the dragon girl to me.

"Ah, that is Shrine Maiden. The clothes made by someone special to me" I replied.

I immediately pulled Mio's arm to stand beside me.

"He made it" I said with a proud smile.

"For the creativity of human descent, this feels comfortable to wear. I love this outfit" said the dragon girl.

"T-Thank you" hearing the praise from the results of his hard work, Mio slightly misbehaved.

"Little saintess, what's your name? My name is Sia. The envoy from the Goddess of the sky who is watching the situation from the sky" Sia said as her introduction.

"Um. Greetings, my name is Lily Schwartz De Rommel. The envoy from the Goddess of Yuri" replied me.

"Woooh!!" suddenly Sia looked excited.

Eh? Why are they surprised?

"T-I didn't think the Goddess managed to do it!" said Ciel.

"Um! I thought she would be a lonely Goddess without Saintess" Sia said.

D-Goddess..

Are you lonely without Saintess?

[Hiks.. Lily-chaaan~ I'm so lonely~]

[Every race of our creation, they always rejected my existence.. Hicks!]

I understand that feeling.

[Lily-chaaan~]

Um, means I'm your first Saintess?

[Un! I-I sound like a lonely Goddess don't I?]

I don't think that way, for me the Goddess is the great hope that leads me to a new path.

[Lily-chaaan was very kind to me. Thank you Lily-chan.]

"Um, is there another Saintess coming?" ask me to change the subject.

"It seems like it's just the two of us, different from us. Their kingdom gave jobs to them thus restricting their free time. As the messenger of the Goddess of nature, I am responsible for keeping the damage of nature out of control yet I have a widely spread subordinate to deal with it. So, I came here because I have enough free time" said Ciel.

"Um! Just like me. The sky Goddess Envoy is responsible for the sky damage and I have a lot of free time because most of the causes of the damage have gone extinct" Sia said.

Hearing Sia's explanation, I became curious about the extinction of the one thing that was capable of damaging the heavens.

Waita minute!

In retrospect, they were Saintess who had a special task.

Then..

What about my job?

Goddess, what should I do as your Saintess?

[Nothing.]

Uh, nothing?

What the hell does that mean?

[Different from other Goddesses who have a duty to guard the universe. I'm different from them. As the Goddess of Yuri, I work as an advisor to another Goddess who needs my help. Maybe Lily-chan can work by helping out with other Saintess's duties to fill her free time.]

Help the other Saintess? Maybe I can try to do it.

"Um, for now I only have one special task that is to help fellow Saintess in case of certain problems" I said.

"That's really helpful to me, Lily-chan! Sometimes humans have the strange thought of cutting down a forest without thinking about the natural damage that can be disastrous" said Ciel.

"Um. Your duties are heavy too, Ciel. But, it is because of Lily-chan's duty to help her fellow Saintess. That's very good news for you, right?" said Sia.

"Yes!! This is very good news. For that, Lily-chan, please help me hunt the Wolf Devour around the forest of this place!" ciel said as he held my palm.

"WOLF DEVOUR!!" the Queen who heard our words was shocked after hearing Ciel's request.

"Niii! Looks like you know what a Wolf Devour, a human I don't know" Ciel's words seemed to pierce the Queen's heart.

"God!!" the Queen said to hold back her inner wounds.

"Wolf Devour? What'sthat?" I asked because I didn't know what Ciel meant.

"Wolf Devour is a black-haired wolf monster created from the blood drops of a dark monster. They move to eat anything including plant life force. They are quite troublesome because the amount is too much" said Ciel.

Hearing Ciel's explanation, I was reminded of my first fight against the black wolf.

"Maybe it's a monster I've met before" I replied.

"Unm, maybe we can hunt him down together" I continued.

Hearing my words, Ciel felt happy and pulled my arm to hunt with him.

"Wait what else, ayoo we hunt that unsettling monster!" ciel shouted while running pulling my arm.

"Wait for me, Lily-sama!!" mio who chased me from behind.

"Ara~ have fun without taking me? Let's go after them, Mio" Sia followed Ciel's movements while holding Mio in her body.

"YIMGIE!!" Mio shouted along our way.

It seems, this is my first assignment as a Saintess.

Helping a fellow Saintess?

That doesn't sound bad.
