Reincarnated as a Holy Nun, I Refuse to Lose! 56

Chapter 56:

Luo Yuxi rushed out into the street, leaning against a lamppost, gasping for breath. She had never run so fast in her life. Although last night had been enjoyable, witches were witches, their energy boundless. Even after a whole night, they still wanted more in the morning.

“Sigh, Ling Shuang said she went to pray, but I’m not in the mood. They said I was summoned for a meeting, but it’s been so long, and I haven’t received any notification…”

Luo Yuxi was wondering where to go or how to gather information, hoping to run into the protagonist, when a nun in white approached. Luo Yuxi recognized her as Qi Yuejiu.

“Nun Luo, the 12 bishops’ meeting has begun. Please follow me. You’re the main subject of this meeting, after all…”

“It’s finally happening. I’ll see what the other bishops think of me. It’ll be bad if they’re all hostile like the Seat of Justice…”

In a luxuriously decorated room, a large round table stood in the center, a statue of the Goddess in the middle, as if watching over them. 12 chairs surrounded the table, 11 of which were already occupied by girls. Only one seat remained empty.

“Sorry I’m late, something came up…”

Xi Luo, her clothes slightly disheveled, entered the room and nervously walked towards her seat, thinking, It’s all Luo Yuxi’s fault, I almost missed this important meeting, how embarrassing.

“Due to some special circumstances last night, I kept everyone waiting…”

“Heh, the weakest bishop putting on airs~”

As soon as Xi Luo sat down, a discordant voice echoed through the room. A girl with long black hair and eyes sat opposite her, a cold and aloof aura surrounding her.

“Only able to become the Seat of Honesty because of the Eye of Truth skill…”

Xi Luo didn’t respond to the girl’s provocation. The radical and moderate factions among the bishops never got along. And the girl was right, Xi Luo was the weakest among them. The black-haired girl, seeing no reaction, thought Xi Luo was ignoring her and stood up angrily.

“Some people think they can suppress others just because they’re stronger. If you want to suppress someone, why not find someone of equal strength~?”

Yuehua Fengyun placed her teacup on the table, an invisible pressure filling the room. The black-haired girl, not backing down, released her own powerful aura.

“Even if I were looking for someone of equal strength, it wouldn’t be you. You’re not on my level…”

“Really? Then hold on tight to your seat, or the Seat of Fortitude might change hands~”

Lin Jian suddenly placed a hand on the black-haired girl’s shoulder. She had teleported behind her without anyone noticing.

“No fighting during the roundtable meeting…”

“Judgment, I know, I know, I didn’t say anything…”

The black-haired girl looked at the expressionless Lin Jian. The other bishops, although they argued, rarely fought seriously. But Lin Jian, the Seat of Judgment, didn’t know the meaning of “holding back.” So even if she was at a disadvantage, she could only swallow her pride.

“La la♬ La la la”

A gentle singing voice filled the room, breaking the tense atmosphere. Everyone looked at the Seat of Sacrifice, sitting at the innermost seat, the bishop with absolute authority.

“No arguing, no hostility~ Since you’ve all embraced the spirit of sacrifice, why be hostile towards each other~?”

The girl at the Seat of Sacrifice smiled gently. The black-haired girl quietly sat back down. Lin Jian, seeing everyone calm down, also returned to her seat, waiting for the next order.

“Now that everyone is here, the 12 bishops’ meeting can begin. No need for tension or noise, just a calm discussion. We can invite our guest to join us, just a casual afternoon tea chat~”

The girl at the Seat of Sacrifice spoke gently. Luo Yuxi opened the door and saw the girls sitting around the round table. She felt like an exhibit, countless gazes scrutinizing her the moment she entered.

“I like this child. I can see her heart is pure, a single, unadulterated thought~”

“Besides being pretty, is there anything special about her…?”

“Mas—no, Luo Yuxi, long time no see, I’m here~”

…

Luo Yuxi saw several familiar faces among the girls, but most were strangers. However, when she saw the girl in the center seat, the long-dormant panel suddenly appeared.

[Lika]

Occupation: Bishop
Affiliation: Church
Skills: [Sacrificial Magic], [Symbiotic Magic], [Exchange Magic], [Divine Arts]…
Title: One of the 12 Bishops, Seat of Sacrifice, Selfless Devotee, Lover of the World
Affection: ???

Luo Yuxi noticed that Lika’s panel was different. Instead of question marks, her skills were listed in detail. However, her affection level was displayed as a question mark.

“No wonder her skills are all self-sacrificing…”

Luo Yuxi looked at the list of divine arts. There wasn’t even a basic healing spell, only life transfer magic. Even Luo Yuxi, who didn’t pay much attention to Church information in the game, remembered Lika. She possessed incredibly powerful, but self-destructive, divine arts, even holding back three Cardinal Sin Witches by herself. However, the price was her eyesight. Even in the game, her signature move, Life Sacrifice Magic, was enough to scare off most enemies.

“It seems our guest has arrived. Let the Saintess candidate appointment ceremony begin~”

“W-Wait! Can I ask a question first…?”
