I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

Starting with Lintelina, the girls knelt on the ground one after another, kowtowed to Ella with tears in their eyes.

"Thank you very much, Master Entarosphiel!"

"Thank you for saving us!"

"You must be the God!"

"No matter what, please let me become your believer and follow you for the rest of my life!"

It seems a bit overdone.

If it were Ella now, she would definitely scratch her cheek or hair in annoyance, but now it was Ntalosviel, so she could only accept it head-on. It would be better to say that the reason she used her ability in that way before was for this moment - to show the power of Ntalosviel.

Looking down at the girl, Ella spoke in her usual cold tone.

"Get up."

Following Ella's words, the girls stood up from the ground. It could be seen that some of them even had bruises on their foreheads due to excessive force.

「Ahh, that’s why I think ordinary people are good! Things like this have nothing to do with me! 」

While complaining inwardly, Ella reached out her hand.

Elementary Healing Technique

The golden light suddenly dissipated, and the girls' injuries recovered.

"M-Mister Entarosviel, do you have any instructions?"

Lintelina took a step forward excitedly. If Ella had not dodged in time, the momentum would definitely have kissed her toes, and in that case, the height she had disguised with the illusion would have been exposed.

"Orders? -- Could you please take those bandits back? I need to take them to another place. They've been knocked unconscious by the magic just now. They won't wake up for at least three hours, so there's no need to worry about them being attacked."

Because I thought that these girls in front of me might have developed a dislike for men, I didn't force them to do so. If there was really no one around, I could collect them one by one later.

A flash of disgust could be seen across Lintlina's face, but it was quickly replaced by her original excitement. She turned around and confirmed with the others.

Except for a few people, everyone, led by the shield warrior and Lintlina, agreed to Ella's request. Under the shield warrior's well-organized command, groups of three dispersed in different directions. Judging from the current situation of at least 60 girls, it shouldn't take long to recover them all.

"Lord Entarosviel, is there anything else you need? Anything is fine!"

Staying where she was, Lintelina, who was in charge of guarding, opened her blue eyes wide and continued to question Ella. Both her eyes and her tone showed that she was expecting something.

"I'll find you if I need you. I have some other things to do right now. Wait here for a moment. I'll be right back."

"Is that so..."

For some reason, the excitement in Lintelina's eyes gradually dimmed.

But for Ella, now is not the time to dwell on this. If she continues to stay here, the bandits in front of her might really be eaten to pieces by the undead. So Ella just turned around and rushed to the main gate at a not-so-scary speed.

Chapter 65: The Abandoned Noble Girls

"Is everything purified?"

"Yeah, satisfied."

Nodding, Eve slowly floated in front of Ella. After purifying nearly a hundred undead outside, Eve's level had increased from the initial highest level 12 to level 16. Judging from the experience gain rate alone, this was already quite an amazing efficiency.

Without considering gaining experience through other means, people below level 20 who want to level up must kill dozens of monsters of the same level, and the experience can only be borne by one person. Given the special physique of the undead that makes it difficult to gain experience, this number would have to be multiplied several times. However, Eve has not only broken the restriction that the undead have difficulty gaining experience, she has even surpassed most ordinary creatures. This speed is the first time Ella has encountered it.

"Well, leveling up isn't a bad thing. I should be happy. But Eve's talent for purifying the undead is a bit too abnormal. It's like cheating."

After putting away the status bar that was blocking her view, Ella looked at Eve, who had a somewhat tired expression. According to the characteristic of ghosts not feeling tired, this should be a symptom of discomfort caused by upgrading too quickly. Although she had only read about this symptom in books and had not experienced it personally, it should not be too far off.

"I really shouldn't have let Eve purify so many undead at once. I should control them better next time."

"Hmm, dissatisfied."

"There's no benefit in upgrading too quickly. Let's go back now."

At least the book specifically gives an example. If an ordinary person increases his level by more than ten levels at once in a short period of time, there will be serious consequences such as the body not being able to bear the load and dying on the spot.

Perhaps because she didn't listen to Ella's words, Eve, affected by the upgrade discomfort, went directly into the Staff of Holy Light and fell into a short sleep.

After taking another look around to make sure no undead or bandits were missed, and using "Terrain Search" to carefully search for any hidden treasures, Ella breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hmm, then, let's go to Lucia and Lintelina next, 'Short Distance Teleport'."

……

"Ah! It's Lady Entarosviel!"

As soon as she arrived at the flattened square, Lintelina ran quickly to Ella. Perhaps because she had washed up recently, the tattered robes that Lintelina had worn had been replaced with a long skirt found from the treasure pile. Except for her dry hair and thin body, she was no different from an ordinary noble girl. In other words, she was prettier than the average person.

"You've adapted so quickly... I thought you'd be more panicked by the change of environment. Could it be that Lintelina actually loves to dress up? Well, maybe most noble girls are like that."

As for myself, except for Iris, no one around me likes to spend much time on dressing. Not to mention the realistic Fukagan and Lotte who often wears a maid outfit, even Angelica, who has a very strong girlish heart, usually only wears a blue and white dress that reaches her knees. As for Camisia, although she has a lot of knowledge about clothes because of her golden cat eyes, except for attending important occasions, she almost always appears in a dreamy white dress, and rarely appears in other styles. Therefore, I really can't say that I know much about ordinary noble girls.

Thinking of this, Ella couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart. She had obviously hoped for a more ordinary life, but now it has become the complete opposite. If she continues to think about it this way, perhaps not leaving Ryan Town in the first place would be the most normal approach. Of course, she has no regrets. After all, her life now has reached an enviable level. If she continues to say something unsatisfactory here, she might even be taken to hell by lightning one day.

Although it is doubtful whether hell exists.

"Lord Entarosphiel, what's wrong with you?"

Noticing that Ella didn't answer, Lintelina immediately came forward and looked up at Ella with her blue eyes.

"Hmm? Uh, nothing, forget it."

Pretending to be indifferent, she shifted her gaze to a place not far away where the robbers were piled up - the reason she used the word "piled" was because it was indeed the case. Almost no one was lying flat on the ground. If she had to say, some of them looked like they were thrown directly by the girls from a distance, and were piled up in an untidy manner. Ella didn't care too much about this. Compared with what the robbers had done, these were simply not worth mentioning. If she asked the girls to be gentler, it would inevitably sound like she was forcing them.

"Have they all been recovered?"

"Yes, since you demolished all the houses before, it wasn't too difficult to find them. We checked twice and found no servants were left behind."

As she spoke, Lintelina handed Ella a piece of wood in her hand, on which seemed to be a yellowed piece of paper.

"There are 55 girls here, including me, and 86 bandits. We found three galaxy-grade magic weapons in the treasure pile, and over 600 gold coins. We're still counting the silver and copper coins. We also found a large amount of dried meat and food in the destroyed warehouse. From what I've heard from the bandits before, when they demand ransom, they usually just ask for the supplies, which is why there are only these gold coins..."

Seeing Ella take the wooden board, Lintlina immediately reported the information in a tone like an adjutant. Since Lintlina looked very happy, Ella was embarrassed to interrupt and could only let her continue.

In short, a lot of gold coins and weapons were seized, and a large amount of grain was found in the cellar. Apart from that, there were only the remains of the dead.

"...Lord Entarosfiel, we can take the treasures from the pile to the surface, but the amount of stored grain and cloth is too much. If it's just us... could you leave some of it here? Of course! We'll do our best to take everything away!"

At the end of her words, Lintelina's face even showed anxiety and nervousness.

For a moment, she didn't understand what Lintlina meant - mainly because Lintlina's previous report was too long and her attention had already been diverted to other places - Ella fell into a brief silence, and only responded to Lintlina after recalling the context.

"So, you can't take so many things with you?"

Ella's words turned the tension on Lintlina's face into uneasiness. She lowered her eyes and stammered in her answer.

"Yes... the reserves are enough for two hundred people for two to three years, so with just us..."

"You seem to have misunderstood something. I didn't mean for you to bring anything up. You just need to follow my orders and gather the bandits together. As for the stored food, leaving it here is fine—no, I'll take it over later. For now, just let the others stand together."

Although she had no intention of eating the bandits' food, and since it had been stored in the underground tower for a long time, it must have been corroded by the miasma and became extremely unpalatable, but considering the future of these girls, Ella decided to recycle the supplies in the warehouse after these girls left, and finally hand them over to these girls, allowing them to be self-reliant, whether they used the supplies to set up a caravan, or simply received some gold coins to start an ordinary life. As long as they did not starve to death on the streets in the end, she would be very relieved.

But Lintelina was thinking in a completely different direction.

"B-but with that amount, asking you, the master who saved us, to do this yourself... please, please let us contribute, even if it's just a small part, by carrying it on our backs! Please, please, please!"

"Ahh... making a crying face at this time is totally against the rules."

Trying hard not to let her facial expression relax, Ella hummed in a cold tone.

"You mean I'm going to memorize them one by one? How foolish."

"What do you mean, sir?"

Lintelina ignored Ella's rebuke and looked dazed for a moment.

"My storage magic can even hold the warehouse of Semorabi. These are nothing to mention."

Although I don't know how big the warehouse of Semurabi is or how much stuff it holds, I have never found the storage limit of the warehouse so far, so it is not a lie to say this.

"So, it's a rare storage magic! I apologize for my earlier insensitive remarks..."

"No problem."

Ella waved her hand, signaling Lintlina to carry out her previous order - to gather all the girls together. However, when Lintlina turned around and took a few steps, she seemed to remember something, and Ella called Lintlina back.

"Lintrina."

"exist!?"

For some reason, Lintelina's voice was much louder than before, and even had a slight tremor in it.

"What are you going to do after you get out? According to what you said before, it's going to be hard for people here to go back."

Of course, Lucia is excluded from the "people here". Lucia had just been captured and it was impossible for her to encounter any problems, so there was no need to worry that the temple would make things difficult for her.

A gloomy look appeared on Lintelina's face. As a noble, she had been captured for several months but not redeemed. The reason was very clear - she had been abandoned by her family, or in other words, the family felt that she had been defiled by the robbers and even if she was brought back, it would only bring shame to the family name. So even if she took the initiative to return to the family now, the final outcome would be to be driven out as a stranger. Almost all the noble girls here had the same experience as Lintelina, so they had to decide underground what to do after they came to the surface.

In other words, should he go back to his family to confirm the answer he had already received, or simply start a new life.

"This... this is just a small matter. Lord Entarosfiel, don't worry about us. With the property you gave us that was stolen by the bandits, we can live a life without worrying about food and clothing."

"You mean selling those things for gold coins? But what are you going to do after the gold runs out?"

Ella's questioning made Lintlina fall silent. Although Lintlina was an 8th-level magic caster with a certain amount of magical knowledge, she actually did not have enough practical experience to serve as an adventurer. It was like what she learned from books and what she actually did were two completely different things. She could not survive on this. Moreover, Lintlina was different from Lucia. The reason why Lucia was able to be recruited by adventurers despite her lack of practical experience was because Lucia herself was of a very high level. Besides, priests did not need to participate in battle, so the same method would be difficult to implement on Lintlina.

Apart from this, as a noble, Lintelina also lacks the common sense of life of ordinary people. The only skills worth mentioning are etiquette, heraldry and social knowledge that noble girls would learn. If there is a noble to introduce her, she may be able to serve as a role such as a territorial assistant. But now Lintelina has absolutely nothing. No noble would be willing to take the risk of recommending someone they don’t know and have no relevance to her. So in the end, apart from doing some manual labor that does not require skills or simply becoming a prostitute, her remaining options are to sell herself as a slave or starve to death.

"...There should be a solution later."

Because Lintelina looked very depressed, continuing to ask her questions would seem like a teasing, so Ella waved her hand and changed the subject.

"Forget it. This isn't something we can decide right now. We'll have to wait until we get to the hive to discuss the details. But first, I don't want to see the people I rescue become someone else's plaything. If you have any requests, just tell me and I'll consider them."

Ella did not tell them that she would give them the supplies, but let them think about it themselves first. Now these girls already trust her very much, so if she makes arrangements for them without her permission, they will probably agree without thinking, even if it goes against their own wishes.

Not only that, but whether the food was edible was also a question. Although both his own "Dispel" magic and Eve's could purify food contaminated by miasma, so far, the miasma contained in the targets of "Dispel" was only very light. It would be irresponsible to make a statement about severely corroded items without trying them first, so these had to be confirmed by himself first to ensure that there would be no problems even if they were eaten before they would be delivered to these girls.

"Will Master Phil help us?... Master is such a kind person..."

Lintelina murmured softly like a whisper, her eyes filled with hazy and ambiguous emotions.

In response, Ella just remained silent and pretended not to hear.

"Even though I'm acting so unapproachable, I'm still being called gentle. What should I do? And that nickname, calling me 'Phil' or something, is too weird, right? Are we really that close!?"

Perhaps because Ella did not reply, Lintnina came to her senses, bowed respectfully, and saluted Ella.

"Then, Master Entarosviel, I will go get the others and leave for a while."

"Got it. Also, tell them I'll use teleportation magic to take them to the Hive. There will only be women there, so don't worry if there are any who dislike men."

Although there are actually adventurers who are psychologically male, they have become female physically, so even if the truth is known later, no one will probably express disgust.

"Okay, I'll tell them, Master Entarosphiel."

Seeing a look of relief flash across Lintelina's face, Ella couldn't help but start to think that Lintelina might be one of the poor people who began to hate men because of the robbers. Of course, if she had a little tact, she wouldn't say it here, so Ella didn't delve into it.

It didn't take long for the girl, whose face was covered with fatigue, to be gathered together by Lintelina.

After taking a quick look around to make sure no one was left behind, Ella waved the long sleeves of her dark red dress.

"'Group Short-Range Teleport'."

[It would be great if Lotte, Camisia, and the others weren't worried.]

Chapter 66: Hidden Shadows

*Genesis 6187 March 20th at 15:00 PM, Enstanit Church led the sanctuary

Located in the sanctuary of the Enstanit Church, Kollaya, it is the only place on the continent that is open to the public and can communicate with the One God. Although it is called communication, in fact, most of the time it is a one-sided oracle. For example, the One God will occasionally predict that a disaster will occur somewhere on the continent, or inform about the climate conditions in the next few years. Apart from this, the One God will rarely answer the Pope's questions, and the Pope has no way to actively contact the One God. But even so, due to the existence of miracles, the sanctuary is still valued by the people on the continent. Therefore, the Enstanit Church has also developed into the church with the largest number of believers on the continent.

However, unlike what one might imagine, the sanctuary is not a place filled with sacredness, nor are there any luxurious buildings decorating it. If one must describe it, it can even be described as "shabby". It is just a low house built in the city center. Apart from being engraved with an unusual number of magic circles and heavily guarded by countless soldiers, it looks no different from an ordinary mansion.

Now, two old men wearing crowns were standing in the dark sanctuary. For some reason, they had no intention of sitting down. They just frowned and remained silent facing each other.

After a full five minutes, the old man wearing the ruby ​​crown slowly spoke.

"Pecher hasn't arrived yet...it's almost time."

"He must have encountered something and can't get away. Just have someone tell him when you get back. This is the Holy Land. Losing your composure will only make the One and Only God laugh at you."

"Then let's get started."
