A Girl Who Was Told "You Have No Talent" Turned Out To Be A Talented Monster - Chapter 144.2

“This way!” (Bishop)

Ex-Piece, guided by the bishop, headed toward the entrance of the sanctuary.

The anti-Pope faction, including him, had distracted the security personnel by spreading information about the thieves.

Of course, the information they were reporting to Elaine was all false. The guards who had successfully made their way to the site were pleasantly surprised to find that they had been given a false report.

Thanks to the reduced security, Litty and her group were able to enter the Great Temple undetected.

On their way inside the Great Temple, the bishop who was guiding them would be present to deal with the guards that were patrolling the area.

“It seems like it’s noisy out there. I don’t think it’s a problem here, but please be on the lookout.” (Bishop)

“Ha!” (Guard)

While Elaine was being stalled outside, Litty and the others were able to quickly pass through the passageway to reach the inner section of the temple.

Because of the previous blunder of letting Ennely infiltrate the temple, the number of guards assigned inside had been increased.

However, thanks to these clever maneuvers, the Ex-Piece had reached the entrance to the sanctuary.

“I can only guide you so far. The only thing left is to trust you.” (Bishop)

“Yes!” (Litty)

After a brief exchange, Litty faced the door to the sanctuary.

She felt uncomfortable. Even with the cooperation of the anti-pope faction, she wondered if things would work out properly.

Although such thoughts entered her mind, her hand skillfully unlocked the door using Thief skill.

As Ex-Piece members stepped into the sanctuary, they were immediately perplexed by the weird “thing” they saw.

“Uh-uh… Uh-oh…”

It could only be described as a groan.

A naked being with no eyes, no nose, and only a mouth was wandering around aimlessly.

Litty, who identified it as a male by the shape of its muscles, was quick to act first. She immediately kicked him away.

“Hey, what was that?!” (Roma)

“It’s coming!” (Litty)

As if feeling no pain, the mysterious being leapt up and struck Litty.

Litty evaded it, but was grazed by a follow-up blow. Arms, legs, and hips. The rubbery flexibility of its arms, legs, and hips allowed it to engage Litty in melee combat.

But then, that mysterious being suddenly stopped moving.

“Uuwow…”

“…He won’t be attacking anymore?” (Kuufa)

“Litty, let’s move while we can. There’s no need to waste our energy on a useless fight.” (Roma)

The group decided to run, ignoring the mysterious presence, but Mirai, who was accompanying them, turned to look at them with a regretful expression.

“Kuufa-sis, that… It’s not a monster.” (Mirai)

“What…?” (Kuufa)

“Please don’t kill it…” (Mirai)

“I understand.” (Kuufa)

Kuufa didn’t ask too many questions because there was no time for that. Moreover, she also trusted Mirai’s intuition.

“Those trees… It’s like a forest. What is this sanctuary…” (Roma)

Unsure of the route through the large sanctuary, the puzzled Ex-Piece members were again confronted by mysterious creatures.

When Roma was imagining if those things were an adult or a child, a chill ran down her spine.

“Waah, ooh…”

“Hmph, hmph…”

“Hee-hee-hee… Hee hee hee…”

Those who appeared were similar to the mysterious creature they met before, completely naked with no eyes or noses.

Some of them had hair. One individual with long hair, in particular, was clearly female.

“…Water attribute, high-level magic, Real Lady.” (Kuufa)

This magic was one of the powers of Aquaria. They also used it on the ghost ship. It allowed one to see the truth.

With a splash of water, the mysterious beings’ appearance changed. But it was only a projection of who they were, not an actual transformation.

Yes, it was already clear that these beings used to be normal humans who had become like this for some reason.

The adults, children, and women all had expressions of anguish on their faces.

“Wha, what the heck is going on here?!” (Roma)

“I, da, I… Aaaaaaah!”
