Saintess

Upon seeing that she has been spotted she stumbled backward. 

"Ack.." the female figure made a small sound upon tripping herself. 

'What the fu*'

"F*cking pervert !" Rio immeditaely screamed out and grabbed the robe next to him to cover his body. 

'Isn't it cliche for it to be the other way around ?' Rio thought to himself and began to inspect the supposed pervert. 

She was about 16 years old, with natural dark tan skin and deep brown hair that complemented her striking violet eyes. Her gaze had a magnetic quality, capable of capturing anyone's attention with just a single look. 

She wore a clean white ceremonial dress with deep purple bands tied around her waist and a dark green leaf tiara above her head, accentuating her figure with elegance.

This supposed graceful figure however is currently in a rather pitiful situation after being caught doing some unsightly things. 

Rio looked at her pitiful figure as the supposed pervert's deep purple eye began to moisten as if she's about to burst into tears. 

After the supposed pervert propped herself up, she mumbled in a small voice. "Zeph, you're suppose to conceal me and warn me" 

Before Rio could retort, a warning from a certain figure ranged in his head again. 

[DON'T TALK TO MY BLESSED] 

'She is calling someone Zeph. A nickname for Zephiron ? So this is the blessed. Why would she be peeking at me ? Is she a pedophile ? Also if Zephiron don't want me to meet with this saintess,, why not just tell me to not go out of the house for the rest of the night ?'

'Wait, if this is a god's blessed. It would mean that she is a major variable. Given that I should be bedridden, it would mean that the original trajectory of this body of mine would have never intertwined with this blessed.' 

'That would mean I really shouldn't be talking to this person right now ! Lest I want to make an impression and have my trajectory be dramatically changed.' 

'Should I run away ?'

Seeing the figure infront of her not talking, she felt a little awkward as she stood up. 

Then she suddenly shifted to a shoulder-width stance, propped her chest up, tilted her head back, and placed her hand on her chest as she proudly proclaimed " I am the future saintess of church of Zeph... Wait, don't run !" 

Immediately after she said that, Rio felt like a authoritative force was suddenly forcing him to stop, causing him to tumbled onto the soft grass right next to the saintess. 

The saintess immediately looked worried and said "Zeph, I told you to stop doing that outside of dangerous situation, look what you've done !" 

Then the authoritative force immediately alleviated. 

'What the hell Zephiron, didn't you want me to avoid talking to your saintess ? Why are you stopping me' 

The saintess knelt down near Rio and looked at him with a curious gaze. 

"Sigh... I'm sorry uhhh.... Whoever you are ! Like I was saying, I am the blessed of Zephiron, the future saintess in training. I'm not a pervert ! I'm too pure to be !" 

"I was sneaking ou... walking out of my camp to enjoy the country side view when I saw a kid walking into a forest unattended. Well you know ... I only followed you to protect you from any harms ! I'm not a pervert !"

" You can believe me, as I am literally too pure to lie!" She proclaimed proudly with a hint of embarrassment. 

As the silent grew longer, she begin to be flustered even more. 

"Zeph, why isn't he talking ? Did you do something to him ?" 

She begins to flustered even more when she saw the small scrape on Rio's knee. 

"Ah ! I know ! Zeph, heal him right now !"

Immediately after commanding, Rio's knee begin to heal. 

"Well, now that I've healed you, it means that you owe me, so start by telling me your name!" 

But Rio still refuses to say anything.

Then the saintess saw Rio stood up slowly, blinked at her for a few moment as if he was about to speak, then immediately turned around and ran away. 

"Ahh..." The saintess looked shocked as she saw the boy's figure going further and further away.

"Heeey! I'm really not a ..." The saintess shouted, but her voice grew more silent as she was embarrassed to say the last word. 

"Sigh... if fate allow us to meet again, I will make sure to properly explain the situation." The saintess silently muttered.

"Zeph, let me meet that kid again in the future please. "

"What do you mean I wouldn't want to meet him ? But I want to properly explain the situation !" 

"I've already done enough explaining ? Well I guess so. But why isn't he talking the whole time?" 

"Tsk, how rude of him."

...

The conversation between the saintess and herself seemingly goes on for a long time as she begins to walk back to her camp.
