As Expected, The Saintess Is Amazing

The party of Seyi Falt defeated the evil god, made him their underling, and set out on a journey…

A few days later.

Phylite and the others, S-rank adventurers, arrived at the deserted island Seyi had been using.

“So she was supposed to be here, was she not, Ufhcok!!!”

Phylite asked the Holy Knight Ufhcok that question.

She had an excellent sense of smell.

She had followed the scent all the way here from distant Fotiatuyah.

It was a truly astonishing sense of smell.

“…Yeah, but it looks like they went into the sea. The scent disappears after that.”

“Kuuuh…! We have lost their trail again!”

…Now then.

What had they been doing from the disturbance in Fotiatuyah until today?

That country was still in turmoil.

After Seyi Falt broke through the dungeon… there had been a huge brawl caused by Flamel and Cherge.

Although Seyi’s potion restored things to normal, that much chaos stirred up the fish-type monsters in the surrounding waters.

Thanks to the effects of Seyi’s potion, the monsters did not enter the town, but they had been kept busy dealing with the monsters… and that was why they had fallen behind Seyi and the others.

“The trail has gone cold again… but! I shall not give up!”

Phylite still had not managed to meet Seyi Falt.

She showed absolutely no sign of giving up.

“Yeah, yeah… that’s fine and all, but we’re supposed to be investigating that monster whale too, right?”

“That is true.”

They had accepted a request in the city of Fotiatuyah.

Apparently, a monster whale had recently been sighted in these waters.

Since it lined up nicely with their pursuit of Seyi, they were investigating it too, but…

“…There’s no sign of that one either.”

“Yeah… sounds like it was being spotted pretty often in the nearby seas, though…”

And then, at that moment—

“Oh my, is that not a lovely young lady?”

“! You are… if I recall correctly… the rainbow-haired person we met in the dungeon!”

Seyi’s master… Flamel had appeared before them before they knew it.

Ufhcok and Bols tensed up.

Since she had taken the women away, and since she was the culprit who had wrecked the city, it was only natural for them to be on guard.

But Flamel ignored the men entirely (though Ufhcok was a woman) and took Phylite’s hand.

“My dear, what brings you to a place like this?”

“I am pursuing Seyi-sama… and also investigating the monster whale.”

“That is unfortunate. Seyi is no longer here.”

“You can tell?”

“Indeed. I am amazing, after all.”

They did not understand the reasoning, but from the dungeon incident the other day, they knew that this woman named Flamel possessed abnormal power.

That was why what this woman said had to be true, and Seyi really was not here.

“Where did she go?”

“Who can say… though Seyi’s mana did seem to head north.”

“! Thank you very much!!! Did you all hear that? North!”

Bols grabbed Phylite by the scruff of the neck as she looked ready to fly off that very instant.

“Hey, you got any info on that monster whale?”

“Hm? Ahh… it seems Seyi already took care of that.”

“What?! As expected…!”

With sparkling eyes, Phylite looked toward where Seyi must surely be.

“No matter where she is, she senses any problem and solves it in no time at all! As expected! Seyi-sama is truly wonderful!!!!”

…In reality, she had only grudgingly cleaned up after the rainbow-haired woman standing right there… and if anything, she had not defeated it so much as added it to her gang of underlings…

But as usual, the truth remained beyond their reach.
