Chapter 40 – I hope you like it, Lolicon Hero♡ Have a good date~!
Chapter 40
After exploring the distribution channels and obtaining the evidence, we entered the Athenian temple. They said that the saintess would visit the school through the temple.
There was also another reason. Since they found a group that distributes metamorphic stones, it was to entrust the investigation of them to the temple.
When I told Cardinal John that it was a group with a pattern of two snakes wrapped around a sword on the back of their hands, he said with a serious expression.
– Sadogryeon. It’s a group secretly known as a killer group, but I didn’t know that they were also involved in the distribution of mutation stones.
Cardinal John boasted that he would use those arrested this time to subject the Sadokryun to an international investigation.
I was worried for a while about whether it was dangerous even though it was a killer group, but I stopped thinking about the strength of the saintess.
Rising to the position of cardinal must mean that you are a competent priest, so if not as strong as a saint, you must be strong enough.
“Now all that remains is for Chloe to go to school.”
“I see. Chloe, how are you feeling?”
At the saintess’s question, I also looked at Chloe. She’s honestly curious. For Chloe, the Royal Magic Academy must be a place with many meanings.
It is a place where her nobles torment her, but it is also a place where she can fulfill her dreams.
“…Honestly, I can’t believe it. She never thought she would be able to go back so quickly… It’s all thanks to the hero and the saintess. I don’t know how to repay this favor.”
“Don’t think so, we helped because we wanted to help anyway.”
“For some reason, the little hero is saying all sorts of mature things~♡”
…The kid is you. How are you even shorter than me?
“…Anyway, Chloe. Don’t think you have to pay us back or anything like that. You just have to accept people’s good will as it is.”
“……Yes.”
Chloe said with a soft smile.
“Thank you, everyone.”
“…Say nothing.”

The visit was decided quickly. After all, it should be said that it is the power of the Solaria Church. When she requested a visit from the shrine, the school immediately gave permission.
He said it would be okay if I came tomorrow.
“For now, it’s a field trip in name.”
“A field trip? Then Chloe…”
“We’ll take them in first. And go in, Fang! And explode.”
“…What do you want to explode?”
The saintess said with her characteristic eye smile.
“Here is a fool who asks for obvious things~♡”
…You may not know.
“To reveal what we found out. What else could there be?”
“…Is it okay to say that out of the blue?”
Isn’t that treating a psychopath? But, she said, the saint is all right.
“Trust me and follow me~♡”
“…Yes.”
Then I’ll just go and stand like a totem and that’s it. I am confident in standing like a totem. The totem warrior is dispatched.
“Is there anything I need to prepare before going?”
“Hmm…I need to get my hair done.”
“Yes?”
“The warrior’s head. My hair has gotten really long now, so it’s all messy~♡ It’s like a jjinta who lives in the corner of the room♡”
…Was it that long? By the way, are there beauty salons in this era? Where do you get your hair done?
“Where do you cut?”
“You can cut yourself, but… Shall I cut it for you?”
“Uh, would you like that?”
I’ve never cut my hair before. Maybe if I cut it, I’ll end up with a flat head.
…I hate just imagining it.
“Whooping♡ I like it. I’ll look after you.”
“Thank you.”
At that time, there was someone stabbing me from the side. It was Chloe, a girl with pretty purple hair.
“Chloe?”
“I can cut my hair pretty too.”
…Uh…Yes.
By the way, I already asked the saintess, so what can I do, Chloe?
“So the saintess will cut it in half and I will cut it in half.”
…What do you think this is chicken? It’s not even half chicken, what bullsh*t…
“The hero entrusted it to me, right? Don’t even think about taking it away!”
“It’s shameful! I’m going to touch the hero’s hair too!”
“Go away, you b*tch!”
“I, I will touch it too!!”
…Don’t fight over weird stuff, b*tches.
“…I’ll just cut it.”
“Oh.”
“Ah.”
The two of them were panicking at the same time. Then don’t fight
“Do I cut? Or will you stop fighting?”
“…So fair, half and half…”
“What kind of haircut is half and half?”
Chloe pouted her mouth. Uh huh, pretending to be cute doesn’t change my opinion.
The saintess smiled contentedly and approached me holding her scissors.
“Okay, then I’ll cut it~♡”
“Yes.”
Since the saintess’ hair is always neatly arranged, she was trustworthy in her hairdressing skills.
Her thin fingers began to stroke her hair. As her soft fingers touched her scalp, something in her felt strange.
…Not bad.
Square, square, and the sound of scissoring tickled my ears. Closing her eyes, she focused on the sound and waited for her scissors to finish.
“It’s done~♡”
From noble mtl dot com.
“Really?”
It definitely feels shorter. I asked Chloe.
“Was it cut well?”
“…I hate to admit it. The saintess is doing well.”
Oh yeah? Too bad there is no mirror in this room.
“Saint, don’t you have a mirror?”
I thought there might be at least one mirror in the temple, so I asked. Then, as expected, she replied that there are saints and added her own words.
“There is, but…you might be disappointed when you see the hero’s goblin-like face~♡”
…Still the sound.
“Saintess.”
“Yeah~ Why are you calling me, Warrior Heocheob♡”
“…I know my face is handsome.”
“…Yes?”
The saintess was perplexed.
You checked my face a while ago, b*tch! Seeing his expression, he seems very surprised, but it’s funny. Is the saintess teasing me with this taste?
“So please give me a mirror.”
“…Uh, since when did you know?”
b*tch, as expected, he thought I didn’t know, so he kept teasing me. Very bad
“A while ago. I went to the fountain with Chloe and happened to…”
“…Yes?”
Uh.
“…Where did you go with Chloe?”
“…Uh…That.”
Damn it, it’s f*cked up.
Chloe was also looking at me with a shocked expression.
…Sorry, I’m an asshole.
The corner of the saintess’ eyes bent. But the corner of her mouth did not rise. Said the saintess with a terrifying expression, her eyes smiling but her mouth not.
“You were there to play when I went to the temple alone~. Ah, I hope you enjoyed it~. Someone was working, and the two of us came and went. Are you here to play?”
“…That, that’s not it. Chloe returned to the royal capital after a long absence, so let’s look back together…”
“Hmm, that’s right~. It must have been nice, lolicon hero ♡ Go on a date with Chloe to your heart’s content~!”
…I can’t help it. If you’re trying to be sulky like that, you just have to do it fairly.
“…Well, I can go with the saintess next time.”
The saintess was startled. Why is she so surprised
“…Do you think that will make me less angry? I was sad that the two of you were hanging out while I was working!”
Although she said so, the saintess’ expression softened before she knew it. The corners of her mouth were also twitching.
…This woman is easy to let loose.
Now it’s time to wrap up. I changed my expression and said.
“I’m sorry, saintess.”
“That, you don’t have to be so sorry. Because I was just sad…”
“Are you forgiving me?”
I put a wedge in. The saintess flinched, and after looking at me for a moment, she sighed.
“…Next time, don’t go secretly. Please tell me before you go.”
“Yes.”
…You mean you’re soft-hearted? I’m glad you passed it well.
“So where is the mirror?”
“I’ll get it for you!”
Chloe hurriedly brought a hand mirror and came back. I heard that hand mirrors in this era were exclusively for nobles, but they are here too.
When I looked in the mirror, I was honestly surprised.
Because I am handsome.
…Just kidding. It wasn’t like that, and I was surprised that the hair the saintess had arranged was quite nice. I’d believe this to be a beautician.
“Your hair is cut beautifully.”
“I told you I cut well~. Could it be that you didn’t believe me when I said, “Hopeless Hero~?”
“It’s not like that, I didn’t know you could cut it this well.”
I think this will be enough. I won’t look strange in front of the cadets tomorrow.

Athens Royal Academy of Magic in the Kingdom of Minerva.
This is a prestigious military academy so famous that not only Minerva Kingdom, but also people from neighboring countries lined up to enter.
The atmosphere of the school was relatively less noisy than other schools, as most of the students were nobles and magicians, and there were many students who came to receive instruction seriously.
Obviously, it was usually like that, but not as much as today. It was because the news that a hero from the Mars Empire and a saint from the Solaria Church would visit the school today spread like wildfire.
A hero is also a hero, but the students showed a lot of interest in the saintess of the Solaria Church, the most religious church on the continent. Even among the cadets at the military academy, there were the most followers of the Solaria Church.
“To hear that the saintess is coming, I feel so happy that I will die!”
“Guy, as a noble, you must keep your dignity, Lady Aydin. I’m glad the saintess is coming, but don’t be rash!”
“You seem to like it a lot too…”
The cadets were each in a happy mood waiting for the two to visit. And finally, the tightly closed front door opened and a white-haired man and a black-haired woman entered. The cadets immediately recognized who they were.
“Wow… Is that the Mars Empire’s hero?”
“You look so handsome…”
“It’s a saintess! To actually see the saintess, this is Goddess Solaria’s grace!”
The cadets were delighted with each reaction. In the meantime, seeing the purple-haired girl who appeared behind the hero and the saint, some of the students hardened their expressions.
Except for those few, all the other cadets expressed their doubts.
“Oh, that kid…”
“Isn’t that Chloe from first grade? Didn’t you drop out?”
“Wasn’t it the suspension?”
The one who appeared with the hero and the saintess was originally Chloe, a cadet who attended this school, who was nicknamed the Commoner Wizard, meaning a commoner-born wizard.
“Where have you been?”
“Rather than that, why do you come with the hero and the saintess?”
“I don’t know.”
People’s attention was focused. It wasn’t because only the hero and the saint appeared, it was because Chloe, who had disappeared at some point, appeared together.
The saintess, Estelle, stepped forward, looked around at the students, and gave a gentle smile.
“Hello, students of the Royal Academy of Magic in Athens. My name is Estelle, Goddess Solaria’s faithful servant. The person here is the hero of the Mars Empire, the hero of Abel.”
At Estelle’s greeting, the students, especially the followers of the Solaria Church, reacted violently with cheers and applause. Estelle spoke to them in a soft and pretty voice.
“Among the cadets gathered here, is there a cadet named Anais Cesar?”
“I know where I am, saintess! Shall I call you?”
“Please, kind cadet.”
Estelle grinned, and the cadet nodded his head vigorously and went to find Anais Cesar. Abel whispered to Estelle.
“Saintess, what are you doing here? Once inside the building, what should I do…”
“No? I will do it here.”
“Yes?”
“Wait~♡”
The cadet who went to find Anais Cesar returned with a brown-haired cadet.
“Ah, what is it…”
“I told you to come quickly. The saintess is looking for you.”
“A saint?…Uh.”
The brown-haired cadet’s eyes widened when he saw Abel. It’s like a reaction like ‘why are you coming out there’. Seeing her reaction, Abel smiled bitterly.
‘Looking at the reaction, my body is my childhood friend Anais.’
As expected, Anais came forward and pretended to know Abel.
“Abel! What the hell is this! Did you become a hero!?”
Estelle suddenly blocked Anais, who was delighted.
“…Are you a saintess? Oh, I’m sorry. You’re surprised. It was because Abel over there and I were childhood friends, so it was nice to see you.”
“Anais Cesar, is that right?”
“Yes? That’s right. Why are you like that?”
Estelle smiled and spoke in a voice that could be heard by the cadets around her.
“Cadet Anais Cesar, I’m here to arrest you for buying and using a transformation stone!”
