I Became the Only Savior of the Obsessive Maniacs - Chapter 3
Michael, the beast, was an ordinary cat during the day.
However, at night, it changes into its original form, a male lion with a thick white mane.
Since he has the real appearance of a lion, he gives off the smell of a ferocious beast, so there is no way that any beast in the field will avoid Michael and be attacked.
‘Someone has treated you.’
Traces of the divine power of the healing attribute remained on Michael.
Is there anyone in the holy kingdom with the healing attribute of divine power?
Compared to other attributes, it appears very rarely, so it was the first time that Cassius felt the power. Perhaps someone has the power to heal, but hides it.
‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’
Unlike other attributes, healing is useless because it cannot be finally awakened.
At most, it’s enough to heal minor wounds, but it’s much more efficient to pour holy water on it while calling the healer. As a result, priests with the power of healing are often ridiculed for generations or become an unwanted nuisance.
He seemed to be hiding it because he didn’t want to be ignored because of his power.
‘I’ll have to thank you when I find out one day.’
Cassius’ hand, which was checking Michael’s condition while stroking it, stopped.
Because there was a scent that I had smelled somewhere.
Recognizing the subtle scent, Sonia’s afterimage seemed to be visible.
Instinct whispered. Her flesh would be even more alluring.
His throat swelled.
A subtle sweetness that seems to tickle his heart.
The intense smell of pheromone from omega, which seemed to stir and attract the roots of alpha, made my mouth feel dry.
‘Why am I doing this…’
It’s not the first time I’ve met an Omega. Isn’t this reaction like an adolescent boy falling in love for the first time?
Cassius had met a live omega before the outbreak of Omega fever.
The pheromones they emit are all disgusting.
But strangely, Sonia’s pheromone felt sweet enough to make me want to smell it more.
Cassius, who was feeling the lingering scent of the pheromone that Michael wore, frowned.
Michael’s paws smelled a little thicker of her scent.
It was a mixture of embarrassment, pain, and sharp emotions.
Michael must have hurt her.
“You’ll have to think about your excuses properly.”
Because you hurt someone.
Michael at night was not only able to communicate as well as have gestures.
Cassius spoke sternly to Michael during the day, who knew nothing.
Michael during the day, who couldn’t even imagine what would happen to him when the sun went down, was just purring, saying that the owner’s touch was good.
It was not the time to leisurely pet a cat.
If you’re attacked by Michael, it won’t be easy to heal.
Cassius raised a hand.
Then the aide on standby in his office approached.
“Did you call? His Holiness.”
Look for an apprentice priest.
Move as fast as you can.
Cassius, who was about to give the order, paused.
Sonia wanted to hide the power of healing. So I thought it would be better to move than to call for a Paladin for no reason.
It didn’t take long to make a decision.
Cassius rose from his seat and gave the order.
“I will go outside. Take over the office.”
“Are you saying you’re going out? What about your work?”
“There is more important work than documents.”
Having said that, Cassius quickly disappeared without an escort.
The aide who was left alone in the office could not hide his absurd expression.
This work, which was postponed because there was another important thing, was an investigation that took three years to prepare.
What could be more important than what’s on paper?
‘No, it’s what the Holy Father does. There must be other important things…’
Cassius never wasted time.
Also, he does not do private work during government affairs.
There was no way he would have chosen to go for a walk out of a sudden and impulsively, as he moves after thoroughly calculating everything.
There is something very important that he didn’t say.
The aide concluded so.
“Meow—.”
Holding Michael, who was looking for his owner, he began to organize the office.
***
After the ungrateful cat that I saved disappeared, I climbed the bell tower alone as planned.
We had to climb quite a bit to get to our destination.
When she first became a priest, she and Ellie despaired at the word cleaning the bell tower.
The bell tower had as many stairs as it was high, but there were no elevators in this world.
You have to walk up a tower that is 10 stories tall.
It is said that it only needs to be cleaned once a week, but climbing the tall bell tower was quite a struggle.
However, it was comfortable after having healing properties and divine power.
As soon as you use it, the fatigue goes away to some extent, so it’s easy enough to climb the stairs.
Moreover, after learning that there is a hidden reward at the top, climbing the stairs was rather fun.
‘I’ve arrived.’
The floor just before the giant bell.
This is the management room of the bell tower, where materials and cleaning tools for repair were stored.
I headed towards the box placed on one side of the management room.
Inside was something that Ellie and I had brought with us.
What I brought were blankets and cushions.
And the things Ellie brought with her were things to pass the time, such as books and knitting supplies.
‘It’s a book I haven’t seen before.’
Looks like Ellie put a new one in there.
I hesitated when I checked the title of the book with a flat cover.
<The Invincible Alpha Duke’s waist won’t stop>
Gosh, Ellie, I can’t believe you brought me this book.
‘I need to say something harsh to her.’
Therefore, it was necessary to carefully examine the contents of the book.
I cleared my throat several times and carefully lifted the book.
Then I unlocked the lock and opened the window wide.
A cool breeze came in with the warm sunlight in the wooden management room.
Putting down the cushion and the book, I looked out the window.
Blue sky without a single cloud. The white building of Magnus Castle.
The appearance resembling a port city was refreshing enough to feel relieved just by looking at it.
‘I feel good.’
Her previous life began in semi-basement and ended in burning semi-basement.
I could see the exhaust pipe of a car passing by through the small window with the iron grate along with the thick mold.
The small space where I couldn’t tell if it was day or night was filled with the sound of my parents fighting.
I crouched at the entrance to the porch, waiting for the fight to end.
That’s why this ordinary daily life I got after being born as Sonia Theodore was so precious.
A mansion full of memories of loving parents, younger siblings, and kind people.
To the life of the countryside, where I finish my work and spend leisurely time. It was all precious.
‘I don’t want it to be taken away.’
Now that there’s a variable, I don’t know what’s going to happen.
I wanted to protect it without losing a single thing.
It’s good to take a break when you have time to gain strength.
Having made up my mind, I looked at the book Ellie brought.
I’m sure I’m alone, but somehow I was bothered, so I looked around and focused on the book again.
<The Invincible Alpha Duke’s Waist Won’t Stop> was hot from the first chapter.
Because alphas have better physical abilities than betas and omegas.
They were good at most of the things they did with their body, so they were able to work at night as well.
It was then. I had a stinging pain in my wrist.
‘What is this?’
I was surprised when I rolled up my sleeves with red marks and checked.
There was a long wound as if it were cut with a knife, and there was blood pooling out of it.
It seemed to be the part where the cat has scratched.
Before climbing the bell tower, I used divine power to recover.
‘Is the wound deeper than I thought?’
Once again, I used healing power.
However, only the stinging pain disappeared for a while, but the wound was still there.
Confused, I used my holy power several times, but to no avail.
If the wound didn’t heal, there was only one possibility.
The cat that scratched me is not an ordinary cat.
A god or a demon.
It was also difficult to treat my power as a probationary priest if it was intermediate or higher.
The pain that had disappeared for a moment was felt again.
This time the pain got worse and I frowned a little.
The pain seemed to go away and then hurt again when the healing power was used.
Now is not the time to read a book leisurely.
If I don’t recover quickly, the monster’s poison will spread and the pain will get worse.
She had to find a person with the divine power of the water attribute to wash away the poison that had spread through her wounds.
Thump, thump.
As soon as I got up, I heard a loud noise.
It seemed that someone was running up the stairs outside the management room door.
Ellie knew where I was going.
However, it was rough to say that it was the sound of her footsteps coming for me.
‘Who is it?’
I swallowed hard and stared out the door.
“Priest Sonia!”
It was Cassius.
“… your Holiness?”
Breathing heavily, he came closer.
He seemed to have run with all his might, as if he was in such a hurry.
I hid my injured arm behind my back and backed away from him.
This was because the lines in the novel <The Realm of Predators> came to mind.
“Lancelot, I want to smell more of you.”
There was one reason they rolled Lancelot.
When emotions run high, or when you are hurt. The more Lancelot suffered, the stronger the omega smell came from his body.
In particular, when you shed blood, the pheromone fragrance thickens to the point of losing reason.
I gripped the wound tightly to keep the smell of blood from leaking out, and I bit my lower lip slightly at the stinging pain.
However, it seemed that the scent of Omega had already spread through the air. Cassius took a deep breath. His broad chest moved up and down.
