Final Boss

Ximengsi Continent’s southern region, vicinity of Steinbeck Fief, outskirts of Needham Plain, the city ruin’s nameless riverbank
The relaxing female members of Light Church’s investigative team encountered a surprise attack by demonic creatures. The appearances of these attackers resembled fishmen, lurking in the depths of this nameless river.
Differences existed between fishmen and mermen. In the case of mermen, their upper parts were human, but fishmen were almost the exact opposite, their upper part was a fish’s head, and their lower part matched a human’s. This contrast led to differences in their attractiveness indexes by quite a few grades. These fishmen hunters were clearly infested by the darkness and attacking people out a predator’s instinct, nothing more. Even if the people on the shore had not been Saintess Suhiya and the others, they would have similarly made a surprise attack.
Clyde had no time to think about the issue of avoiding arousing suspicion. He jumped out of the thicket he had been hiding behind and immediately rushed over to help them. If by any chance, they were pulled into the river, it would be very difficult to rescue them. By the time Clyde had appeared on the scene, nearly all the female members of Light Church’s investigative team had fallen to the ground, succumbing to the poisoned arrows of the fishmen hunters.
When the fishmen noticed Clyde, their attacks were immediately directed towards this new intruder. A second round of poisoned arrows shot towards Clyde’s direction, but Clyde simply ignored these since they were blocked by an invisible barrier around his body. They posed no threat to him.
Clyde smashed the closest fishman hunter’s head with a single fist, allowing its corpse to fall into the nameless river. In front of the absolute power difference, the wind of Clyde’s fist alone could crush these fishmen hunters to a pulp. After seeing their companion being instantly killed, the fishmen retreated into the river. Although they were ferocious, it seemed someone was secretly commanding these fishmen hunters’ actions, revealing that they were not the instinctual monsters they appeared to be. Not to mention anything else, that fierce wind that had blown all the girls’ gear just a moment ago had not been cast by these fishmen since they were unable to use any magical attacks.
“If you don’t want to die, then disappear from here. I will regard it as if I had seen nothing. Otherwise, this will be your last hunt.”
Clyde stood at the nameless riverbank, overbearingly watching the fishmen hunters staring back at him from the river’s dark waters. Those dozens of fishmen hunters were deterred by his momentum, and none dared to come ashore. After a short stalemate, the fishmen hunters unwillingly sunk into the nameless river and disappeared. It was unknown whether they had truly withdrawn or merely decided to temporarily lie low. With the prey in their hands robbed by another person, if Clyde were in their place, he also wouldn’t feel well.
Even after the fishmen hunters withdrew, the backstage manipulator who had been secretly commanding these fishmen never showed himself. He probably was self-aware and knew that he was no match for Clyde. After determining that the fishmen hunters’ aura had truly completely disappeared, Clyde cautiously walked towards those girls of Light Church. Because of the effects of the venom, they had already lost their consciousnesses, and many of them were even entangled in a net and halfway down the shore to the river.
Fortunately, they were all unconscious, so they’d be easier to deal with. First, Clyde helped them take care of any open wounds. While bandaging the female believers, regardless of whether they were priestesses or female paladins or even the three saintesses, Clyde saw all of them bare without exception. Clyde’s self-control was good. In the past, he had seen many beauties’ true aspects and had gained a sort of immunity.
“Eh, you all are awake. Are you all alright? When I was passing through the forest over there just now, I noticed you all were passed out on the ground with injuries, so I helped you all bandage them.”
“It’s fine, Mister Clyde. Many thanks, eh...”
Saintess Suhiya blushed, and together with Saintess Maria and Saintess Tiffany beside her, they looked at each other in blank dismay. They discovered that the bra and panties they had originally been wearing had disappeared without a trace, but it was simply too embarrassing to ask Clyde about that issue. The other female companions on the scene were all also in completely bare states, exposing their snowy white alluring **. They sat on their knees on the grassland in such unguarded states, exposing their fair and clear skin to air.
The chilly feeling brushing all over their bodies made Suhiya and the others very shy. Exposing themselves like this in front of a handsome man was simply too embarrassing. The simple bandages around their wounds proved that not only had Clyde seen them bare, but he had also very likely touched them in passing. Nevertheless, the person in front of them was their savior, so it would be hard to say anything for the moment. Being seen bare by Clyde was at least better than being captured and dragged into the water by those fishmen hunters.
“Mister Clyde, is there any other clothing we can use? A piece of cloth would also be fine!”
“No, this is a city ruin. How could there be any clothing here! The campsite also seems to have encountered a mishap. When I left, it was still fine, but I can’t see any lights now. How about I return to the campsite and take a look? You all can wait here...”
“Don’t, don’t return! Stay and accompany us until dawn! Oh, please!”
Clyde pretended to get up, preparing to leave. Immediately, Tiffany and Maria didn’t care about their dignities as saintesses and pulled Clyde’s left and right hands respectively. With their current appearances, it was too dangerous in the wilderness. After suffering that attack, the venom in their systems had not yet completely dispersed. Until now, their strengths had not returned to normal. In order to make Clyde stay here, the three saintesses didn’t care about their dignities and hugged Clyde’s body.
Maria and Tiffany leaned close to Clyde’s left and right sides. As for Suhiya, she was in Clyde’s bosom. The three charming bodies were delivered into Clyde’s hands like this. These saintesses didn’t seem to know that their current appearances could easily make other people commit a crime, especially with the Exorcise Holy Crosses they wore. Clyde truly wanted to rip them off. Although he didn’t fear those crosses, with exorcising items so close to him, he still felt somewhat uncomfortable.
“That, can you all take off those cross necklaces? Don’t be nervous. I don’t have any other intentions. Just think, if by chance, other people saw the crosses while you were in this situation, then you all would find it difficult to explain yourselves. At that time, the church’s face will certainly...”
“This... fine!”
The three saintesses exchanged glances and took off their last defensive items, the Exorcise Holy Cross, and handed them to Clyde’s care. Under the saintesses’ lead, the other female believers also took off their exorcising crosses and gave them to Clyde. They chose to believe in the saintesses’ choice. If this man was a demon, they could only treat themselves as sacrificial offerings who had delivered themselves to this demon.
“Lord Clyde, please accompany us till dawn and think of a way to help us. Don’t return to the campsite!”
The saintesses’ body had just been washed and still had a layer water droplets. Holding them, it would have been very easy to lose his self-control while feeling their supple, slippery bodies, but if he didn’t hold them, they wouldn’t feel at ease. Now, Clyde and the others had already moved to a discarded hunter cabin in the depths of the forest. The threat of fishmen hunters at the nameless riverbank had still not yet been eliminated; thus, they couldn’t go to the riverbank since they don’t know whether they would suffer an attack again. Furthermore, they probably would not be as lucky next time.
Suhiya, Maria and Tiffany fell asleep, completely handing themselves over to Clyde. The gentle movements of their chests were a wonderful sight. Not long after, all the female believers fell asleep. The previous attack had exhausted them. In the cabin, Clyde was the only man, and he was surrounded by a group of unguarded naked beauties. Clyde didn’t need to sleep, so he quietly enjoyed the charming faces of these saintesses, pondering about where he could find clothes for them to use after dawn. The best option would be to find the Cursed Queen Lafania and her younger sister Nightmare Queen Mephis since they would probably have some clothes.
Late at night, the city ruins and forest area transformed into a terrifying zone where resentment spirits ran amuck. Clyde could hear many indistinct footsteps walking about outside the cabin. However, those ghosts were obstructed by Clyde’s existence, and they didn’t dare to enter the cabin. Even though Light Church’s female believers inside the room had already taken off their Exorcising Holy Crosses, with Clyde present, most demonic creatures avoided this place out of instinct.
The peaceful night didn’t last long. Not long after, a cold wind blew against the wooden walls of this discarded cabin, and along with the pitter-patter sound of rain, everyone inside the cabin was startled awake. Upon listening carefully, in the midst of this rain and wind, they could hear indistinct plaintive cries. Normally, in an area crowded with resentment spirits, this kind of special torrential rain would occur at night.
Suhiya and others were so scared that they paled; they had already forgotten their statuses as Light Church’s saintesses. They curled up in Clyde’s bosom and shivered. After all, they were still girls despite their power. Especially weakened by the force of the venom, they returned to their instincts. Facing this terrifying scene, they were badly frightened. Even saintesses had such an appearance, so there was no need to mention the other female believers. All were so scared that they gathered around Clyde’s position. On the big bed of the cabin, an ambiguous scene appeared. All the naked female believers sat on the big bed, not daring to be far away.
“Eh, did you all forget your identities?”
“No... not forgotten. Can’t you let us be a little weak tonight?”
Facing Clyde’s teasing, Suhiya and others had nothing to say. They could only coyly lower their heads, not daring to look squarely at him. Now, Clyde could completely claim them. In their current states, they would not be able to resist. However, Clyde still had some principles, so he wouldn’t take advantage of others’ difficulties. Suhiya and others were Light Church’s saintesses. If he truly pushed them down, that would certainly tear all pretenses with Light Church, and Clyde was still not yet prepared for that trouble.
Outside the cabin, the terrifying heavy rain continued in stark contrast to the ambiguous atmosphere inside the cabin. Clyde wore a simple magic robe, so he did not have true skinship with the saintesses. This was the main reason he could still persist despite his urges. If they had come into skin contact, Clyde feared that he wouldn’t have been able to control himself.
A blurred figure stood in front of the cabin’s door. It was a very strong resentment spirit. Although it wanted to enter the cabin, Clyde’s presence made this resentment spirit hesitate. It could sense Clyde’s strength and determined that he belonged to the sort of existences it couldn’t afford to offend; thus, after a period where they both revealed their auras, Clyde forced it to give up and look for another target.
After the resentment spirit, at least seven or eight other high-leveled demonic creatures stood outside the cabin’s door, but all were deterred by Clyde’s momentum. None dared to easily cross the boundaries of propriety. In stark contrast to Clyde’s intense situation, Saintess Suhiya and the others slept very soundly. They were not at all disturbed by demonic creatures. Clyde was busy all night confronting various kinds of demonic creatures, so he had no free time to take cheap advantage of saintesses. He could only look without having the time to make a move, which made Clyde unusually depressed. Several times, he almost couldn’t help wanting to use his dark powers to destroy all the creatures of the same side that had come to disturb the saintesses and others’ sleeps.
“Daytime already?”
“Mmm, if you all are not in a hurry, then you can sleep a little longer...”
