Me, a priest? How could that be!

Chapter 85 Three punches shatter the arrogant soul, Priest, I'm an honest man!

The Demon King's daughter looked at Charlotte provocatively and said, "Alright, it's your turn next."

"Damn it... Um, what's your name?" Charlotte wanted to reply, but she didn't know the Demon King's daughter's name, which made her feel a little awkward.

"Yasaka."

"...And then? This is just your surname, right? What about your given name?"

"Do you think I'd tell you my name? What if you curse me to death? Besides, we're not close enough to call each other by name."

Yasaka wrinkled his nose.

Charlotte knew that islanders only called each other by name when they were close, and that her ancestors were reincarnations of islanders. She was surprised that this custom had been passed down.

Never mind, it's not important.

Charlotte walked forward on her own, angrily saying, "Damn it, Yasaka."

"Oh?" Yasaka was slightly surprised. "You didn't choose to run away but instead approached me, even though I easily defeated the Demon Sword Hero."

"How can I beat you up if I don't get closer?"

"Hmph, then let's get a little closer."

Whether she looked down on the profession of high priest or was bursting with confidence in her own abilities, she let Charlotte approach without any defenses until they were about 3 or 4 meters apart, or about 7 steps apart.

"Ora ora ora————"

「木大木大木大————」

Their fists collided at a dazzling speed, and most importantly, they were locked in a stalemate. Charlotte was just a high priest, yet she was on par with the daughter of the demon king.

"Are you... really the High Priest?"

Yasaka looked clearly puzzled.

His expression was almost exactly the same as the one the Headless Horseman had shown him.

Even though Charlotte could fight Yasaka for a short time, he couldn't speak, while Yasaka could question him with ease, which shows the difference between the two.

Charlotte, her brow furrowed in pain, threw punches faster and harder. At the same time, a dazzling pale blue light emanated from her body, enveloping her fists and constantly colliding with and dissolving the red aura emanating from Yasaka.

Yasaka's expression changed noticeably, and he frowned as if he was in pain.

"Tsk."

She clicked her tongue in annoyance and muttered a complaint, "Damn water goddess." It seemed she had discovered Charlotte's hidden identity as a follower of the Axis.

Unexpected, yet perfectly logical.

During the final battle, the Demon King also found Aqua's existence troublesome, and even questioned her, "Why did you descend upon a world that is not ruled by the Goddess of Water?" Clearly, the Demon King, like the Headless Horseman, is weak to water, so the Demon King's daughter must also have this weakness.

Having grasped this point, Charlotte found the key to victory and shouted.

"—Divine Light Fist!"

Then, a radiance imbued with the deep faith of the water goddess shot straight toward Yasaka Eiki's face.

"You bastard...!!"

She probably meant to say something about not hitting someone in the face, but Charlotte didn't give him the chance. Besides, how could he hold back in a life-or-death battle? Sorry, he's a believer in gender equality too!

Yasaka was furious, but dared not confront him directly.

He decisively bent over and leaned back, barely dodging Charlotte's fist at an angle of at least 110 degrees. He even calculated the distance to Charlotte's towering chest. Then, he twisted his body in an unusual way and kicked Charlotte with his combat boot.

Charlotte discovered that she was better at using her long legs as an advantage. But at that very moment, Youyou decisively used a high-level spell.

"Bottomless Swamp!!"

The range was small, precisely causing only the leg that Yasaka was using to sink, and her body involuntarily staggered, leading to a misjudgment of the angle and distance of the attack, and the roundhouse kick missed.

But this also gave Charlotte a chance.

"You're such a great wingman!"

While praising, he stomped his feet, took a deep breath to make his chest bulge, and then his fist was once again enveloped in a dense blue light as he shouted.

"—Divine Light Fist!!"

Three punches shatter the arrogant soul, Priest, I am an honest man!

Charlotte ruthlessly blasted the attack towards Yasaka's face, and the deep blue light clearly reflected her ugly expression. Unable to dodge in time, she could only cross her arms in front of her chest, blocking the attack at the last second.

"snort!!"

Yasaka let out a deep groan, the powerful impact sending him flying several meters away. Unfortunately, unlike Mikami Hibiki, he didn't lose consciousness. Instead, he nimbly flipped in mid-air and landed gracefully.

It looks completely uninjured, except for some unsightly charred black marks on its red gauntlet.

"You two..."

"Let me make it clear beforehand, I didn't say I wanted to fight you one-on-one like Mikasa did. Don't accuse me of ganging up on you."

"Tsk."

She clicked her tongue in amazement again.

Although Charlotte's words sounded like those of a rogue, it was the truth, and besides, this was a battlefield where there was no rule for one-on-one duels.

However, when she looked closely at Youyou, who was cautiously giving Charlotte a high-five, she noticed that Youyou had red eyes and black hair and her expression turned even more unpleasant.

"It's actually the Crimson Demon Clan..."

If we were to say who caused the most trouble to the Demon King's army, it would undoubtedly be the Axis Cult, while the one who caused the most trouble to her personally was the Crimson Demon Clan.

Setting up tourist attractions and observation decks in the Scarlet Devil's Village is one thing, but they also frequently spy on her room, using her changing clothes as a gimmick.

Although she led the Demon King's army to attack in a fit of anger, the enemy always managed to escape in advance and return to normal after a few days.

That's why she readily agreed to the Demon King's request to come to the capital and hide for a few days.

did not expect.

We've run into the Crimson Demon Clan again.

"An Axis cultist, a Crimson Demon... Good, good, this is really great."

The Demon King's daughter laughed in exasperation.

Very dashing and handsome.

Yet it was filled with malice and murderous intent.

"I'll talk, I'll talk, take a closer look." Charlotte tugged at her priest's robes. "These are the robes of the Church of Eris, and I am a priest of the Church of Eris!"

"Don't try to lie! I'll remember the smell of an Axis cultist you emanate even if you were reduced to ashes!"

"She's slandering me! She's slandering me!"

Charlotte quickly tried to crack a joke.

The identities of the Axis cultists cannot be exposed, otherwise how can they commit murder and arson... cough cough, how can they subdue the Demon King's army?

"Hmph, no need for you to play dumb. I've already figured out your moves." Yasaka scoffed disdainfully. "Although I don't know why someone as a high priest can stand against me, there's a decisive difference between us!"

She said it with haughtiness.

Then, it slowly flew into the air.

"That means... I can use magic!"

"You bastard!! Get down, you get down right now! How dare you mock me for not knowing magic? I'll beat you to a pulp today, or I'm not Charlotte! Get down here!!"

Charlotte angrily pointed at her and yelled.

"……Um???"

Yasaka seemed unaware of why Charlotte had suddenly gone berserk, and subconsciously looked at Youyou beside him. Youyou, however, slowly turned her head away, not wanting to provoke Charlotte any further.

"Fine... whatever, go ahead and try this move if you dare!"

She raised her hands high.

Similar to the pose used to unleash a Spirit Bomb or Gaia Energy Cannon, a giant fireball condensed in mid-air, and then she swung her hands downwards—

"Purgatory!!"

A red fireball, almost the size of an explosive spell, fell from the sky.
