Ranking System

[Charles POV]

Nene and I were disappointed by the egg's reaction. Even when there was more life inside the egg, nothing was happening--all the need for Nene to watch the egg more carefully.

I didn't want to bother Nene any longer since she had taken her role as a mother of the egg too seriously. When I had left her alone, what should I do now? The three other girls should be together. Should I join them?

Tracing where the other three girls were, I found them sitting down in a sweets cafe. I could go for some sweets. It's been a while since I last had them.

Teleporting was the most efficient way to travel. I teleported to the least conspicuous area I could find. And with no one around, I went to the cafe where the three were.

"Charles!"

Reina was positioned in the seat where she could see the door entrance. Luckily I had muted Reina's voice, only allowing me and the other two girls to hear. I wouldn't want the surrounding people to notice me.

With Reina calling my name, Rose and Courtney looked at me in surprise. No one would expect me to find them when they were out. From the looks of it, they were delighted to have me here.

"Courtney, how's your day?"

Seeing her expression, I could tell the experience she wanted wasn't something she could gain from a school like this. I shouldn't have asked that. Her expression had become more downcasted when I asked.

"..."

"Sorry for asking..."

Courtney didn't say anything, and I made the atmosphere around us awkward. What could I do to make it up to her?

Perfect timing, the desserts they had ordered have arrived. Now I hope that I can help fix this awkwardness.

[Constance POV]

Why am I doing this? This isn't even something in my line of work. After one month with Charles, my body sensitivity and my line of thought also changed.

Whenever I think of him, my body gets warm and tingly. Sometimes my thought wandered to leave this work and go back home and sleep with him. I really became a useless woman, didn't I?

Currently, I am in a country that is part of Necropolis. A terrorist organization from the world of Necropolis was asked to be eliminated immediately. With my skill, a light-based attack would be extra powerful against the creatures of the night.

Necropolis was famous due to the everlasting darkness in the world. Due to some magical particles coming from Necropolis, the sun's light would be ineffective.

"Saintess. We have arrived at their base. I wish you success."

After being guided to the place where the organization was found, I was left alone... I was strong enough to finish this alone, but shouldn't the people of Necropolis assist me? If this was a trap, this one was poorly set up.

Walking to the base, the guard was about to sleep. If I were the employer, I would have immediately fired him.

"Who..."

Before the security guard could ask, I pierced the head of the guard with my holy sword. Continuing with the extermination, I killed anyone that I passed by. I wanted to get this over with and return to Charles' home.

"Bitch! Do you think you could get away with this?"

Their words didn't bother me. Walking around the base, I continued to turn all these creatures of the night into ashes. There should be at least ten thousand members inside the base. I had already killed a tenth of them, and more should come.

I was surprised that there wasn't any alarm or anything. That would have made it easier for me to eliminate them.

[Third Person POV]

"Boss, the intruder has arrived! She has already eliminated a lot of our people!"

One of the grunts that were hiding had notified the boss. At this rate, the Saintess would pick everyone off, one by one.

The boss heard what the grunt had said. He seemed unconcerned about the outcome. From his face alone, he knew what the outcome was.

"Send everyone to attack her. She can't handle everyone at once."

"Got it boss!"

The grunt left and did what the boss told him. He gathered everyone he could find for a marching band. With enough people, he got them to attack the Saintess. Constance was now in their sight.

"We have you surrounded! Bitch! Meet your doom!"

It was a mistake to surround the Saintess. Constance's specialty was a wide-area attack. All she needed to do was send a wave of mana made from light to kill anyone here nearby.

Those hit by the light were barely alive. Thousands of these criminals were turned to ashes, and the remaining people alive had their skin burnt to a crisp.

"I thank you for bringing everyone here. It made my job easier."

The grunt that had brought everyone together was barely hanging on. Constance, who spoke out of her nature, had taunted him, which made the grunt die from losing his will to live on. As for the remaining people alive, Constance eliminated them and went to the boss' headquarters.

"I didn't expect you to be the boss. No wonder this organization was hanging on."

In front of her was the 14th rank person. He was there when there was a negotiation between the three worlds.

He was also there when the people of Necropolis had asked Constance for assistance to eliminate this crime syndicate.

"You're someone too dangerous for our people. You must be eliminated."

"That's a stupid assumption. There are many people that could wipe your so-called people."

"You wouldn't understand."

Constance sent hundreds of blades of holy light onto him. She wouldn't dare to underestimate an opponent who had boldly appeared waiting in front of her.

After the attack had finished, Constance found the werewolf unharmed. Her eyes widened, not knowing why her attack didn't work.

"I'm unaffected by your magic. It's time for me to eliminate you."
