Time-limited Saintess, You’ve Been Caught by the Tyrant Once Again

The sound of breathing between a woman and a man was constantly heard.

Even though Ellin covered her ears, the occasional audible sound of the man’s beastly breathing and the woman’s shrill voice tormented her. Although she was not the Saint anymore, she still had the values of the Saint in her head.

…To mix bodies in this sacred temple! Even in the prayer room where God is overlooking!

She was truly infuriated.

God would not leave them alone.

Even when they returned after finishing the act, Ellin kept her mouth closed and curled up. It was such a horrific time. She could not believe it really happened. Was it true that the woman who was named ‘Saint’ mixed her body with a man? Even in the prayer room where it is supposed to be the most sanctified…?

Grabbing her throbbing head, she opened the door from the room she was in to the prayer room. A still scorching heat stained her face as she saw the statues of the saints on the pillars of the prayer room.

How could they do such a thing under this statue…?

The more she thought about it, the more enraged she was. This used to be the most reverend and holy prayer room in the world, though now… it feels tainted.

As she opened the door of the prayer room and came out into the hallway, Ellin covered her mouth, feeling nauseated. At the same time, she denied what had just happened and tried to erase the thought. She tried telling herself to calm down and think calmly since they were also human beings with desires.

‘…Maybe, my thoughts are old-fashioned.’

The Saint should be the most pure and virtuous. Of course, that means that you could not get close to a man or get married.

This was also the same for all priests.

Of course, Arkan disregarded the rules and dragged her to the Imperial Palace as if abducting Ellin and marrying her, causing great trouble. There were times when Elena, too, wanted to give in to her desires. Still, she, obviously, never thought of having an affair in the prayer room like this.

‘…Liliana, what are you doing?’

Recalling the conversation, it seemed that their relationship was more than just a one-time thing. No matter how far the Saint’s residence was from the priests’, this was the territory of the Gods. Ellin did not know it at first, but how surprised she was to find out that every move she made went into the Pope’s ears. In addition, the secret room in the prayer room would also be discovered later.

…Was the Pope really unaware of this?

At the thought, she could feel a chill.

As she was about to turn the corner, someone’s stern hand suddenly grabbed her. When Ellin tried to scream unknowingly, a soft hand covered her mouth before another hand embraced her waist. Her heart was pounding.

“Shh.”

“….”

It was the voice of Erich.

Ellin opened her eyes wide and looked behind her. As the pale moonlight gleamed through, his face shone even whiter.

“Don’t scream. Do you understand?”

Nod.

It was only when he removed his hand from her mouth that Ellin realized that she was too close to him. His hard chest touched her back, and his arms were still wrapped around her waist. As if on the verge of kissing her, Erich lowered his head as he brought his red lips to hers, and whispered.

Ellin’s heart raced.

“High Priest, how—”

“Sir Paul is standing over there. If you go there, he’ll kill you.”

“…”

“I think he only noticed my presence, not yours yet.”

“Ah…”

“Follow me.”

At that, Erich led her another way.

“This is…”

“This is my room.”

She knew it because she used to wander around carefreely here when she was the Saint. However, Ellin glanced around the room as though it was the first time she had come here. It had been a long time since she had seen his room when he was not yet the Pope, so she felt nostalgic.

At this moment, she felt completely relieved in Erich’s space.

“Yes, Ellin. What did you see?”

He asked softly.

Sitting on the sofa in his space with only one light, Ellin felt strangely drowsy. When the moonlight illuminated his pale face, the orange eyes filled with a strange light softly curved in an arc as he smiled. Furthermore, the shadows cast on his high nose bridge enveloped him with a strange atmosphere. For some reason, he was different from the Erich she knew.

Was there such a difference between his treatment of her as the Saint and his treatment of her as a commoner?

Feeling a stifling pressure, her heart was pounding rapidly. Ellin tried to ignore the feeling, pondering whether she should tell him what she had seen earlier. Still, she could not even open her mouth. What if he does not believe her?

It was a sexual concern regarding the Saint, so the matter was too exorbitant…

Meanwhile, Erich, who saw her troubling expression, burst out laughing as if it was funny for him. Thankfully, the sound of his sudden laughter relieved the rigid atmosphere.

“Ellin, Sir Paul and the Saint went to the prayer room. They probably didn’t intend to pray together, and it’s obvious what young men and women would be doing.”

“….”

“You, too, came from the prayer room. That means…”

Dragging the end of his remarks, he then gazed at her.

 ‘Don’t tell me…’

Somehow, Erich was miraculously aware of everything about her. Surely, he would not have noticed that she went to the secret room, did he? It was certainly strange that she, who was an outsider until recently, knew of the existence of the secret room.

When Ellin glanced at him with a nervous expression on her face, Erich continued.

“Were you secretly praying and hid when the two people suddenly came in?”

“Yes?”

“Because a faithful person like you can’t pass by the prayer room where the Saint prays.”

“….”

“I understand. Prayers hold different feelings depending on the location. The waiting room where the saint prays reserved a majestic atmosphere as sages are carved. Was that why you wanted to pray there?”

He had a serious expression.

For Erich, she seemed to be a loyal believer. Of course, she was faithful because she had a habit of praying. Seeing him like that, Ellin had a look on her face where she could neither laugh nor cry.

“You must’ve been really startled. Your face is all pale.”

“N-no. It’s all right.”

When Ellin shyly refused as he tried to reach out to her, Erich’s hand flinched in the air a little and he spoke softly.
