Gender-swapped Saintess: A Survival Diary on Hell Difficulty

Elizabeth's orders were quickly carried out.

With no shortage of financial resources, influence, or manpower, the number of copies of "Cat Maiden Photobook" circulating in the market has decreased significantly.

Unfortunately, Elizabeth never expected this.

Her actions backfired.

Under Wayne Company's relentless pursuit, coercion, and enticement.

"The Cat Saintess" became a hot commodity on the black market and a symbol of high taste among young nobles.

As for why?

The art pieces that Her Highness Elizabeth collected so extensively—isn't that a testament to her refined taste?

……

Haisen Harbour, a neighborhood of upscale villas.

Inside a members-only restaurant with understated and modest decor.

Well-dressed young people gathered here.

They were all noble sons of the capital, or young newly promoted nobles.

They are the most dissolute, idle, and lecherous group of people.

They even formed a small group to explore pink clubs.

They call themselves the "Elite Monster Girl Appraisal Team".

The "7 AM Opening" at Haisen Harbor, a pink paradise filled with fluffy animal girls, is their favorite place.

Today, instead of opening at 7:00 AM, they came here.

There is only one reason.

"Stakk, hurry up and bring out 'The Cat Saintess', I haven't even actually read it yet."

A young man wearing glasses spoke up.

Immediately, everyone's eyes focused on a black-haired young man.

His face was thin, and he had dark circles under his eyes, but his eyes were brimming with unimaginable enthusiasm.

Then, he took out an exquisitely sealed book from his spatial ring.

It looks like a precious magic book, with a chibi-style portrait of Roland on the cover, surrounded by a ring of vines and roses.

There is an "H" at the very bottom.

It is indeed the "Cat Saintess Photobook", and it's a collector's edition.

……

Fifteen minutes later, everyone watched with reluctance as "The Cat Saintess" was taken back.

The group felt unbearably hot and couldn't help but unbutton their collars.

At this moment, a handsome young man dressed in a mage's robe timidly raised his hand.

"Um, don't you guys think this is a little strange?"

"Isn't the effect in this picture book a bit too exaggerated? Everyone here is clearly a superhuman, yet they seem to be under a spell of lust?"

The burly man next to him laughed and slapped the boy on the shoulder.

"Young people are just too young; this isn't called being under the spell of lust."

"That's the reaction a real man should have."

"Besides, there's no such thing as magic that works on people just by reading a book."

The atmosphere in the room immediately became cheerful, and then someone asked a question.

"Hey, do you guys really think that's Saintess Roland up there?"

Others immediately objected.

"How could that be? Are you still asleep? That's definitely a succubus from Pink Harbor."

"As for Miss Roland, she's currently the most popular 'commoner' in the Old Port District. I saw her at the Krusty Krab before."

"It was truly pure, beautiful, like a blooming golden lily."

"It's absolutely impossible to film something like that."

The man continued to ask questions.

"Then why does Princess Elizabeth keep collecting 'The Cat Saintess'?"

Everyone fell silent.

"Could it be because the succubus's portrayal damaged Saintess Roland's image, and Princess Elizabeth couldn't stand it?"

"By the way, I heard that Her Highness Elizabeth's maid goes to the New Sprouts Church every day, which is quite unusual."

The crowd had no idea that the royal maid had gone to buy milk, and naturally, they had the wrong idea.

"You mean to say that Her Highness Elizabeth has feelings for Miss Roland, or considers her her own?"

After these words were spoken, the room fell silent once again.

Everyone couldn't help but swallow hard.

Clear swallowing sounds echoed in the room, and then everyone suddenly spoke in unison.

"I want to go to Pink Harbor."

……

Elizabeth's attempts to stop her were futile, and instead, a group of people wanted to label her as an empty shell.

However, the orders continued to be carried out, and "Cat Maiden" was constantly being acquired.

The "Dark Cloud Spell" was also cast over Ms. Tree's head.

……

Wayne Corporation, inside the Glass Garden.

Ms. Tree's illusory figure floated in mid-air, looking puzzled.

"Little Lywind, why did you suddenly come out and cast the Dark Cloud spell?"

"I finally got a sunny day, and I've spread out my canopy to soak up the sun."

She pointed upwards.

Behind them, the tall, lush trees had their canopies nearly half as large as usual, just to let them bask in the sun.

Unfortunately, Head Maid Lywind, along with a group of combat maids, was caught off guard by a massive Dark Cloud spell.

She was so angry that her large, firm chest heaved.

Liwind smiled bitterly.

"Ms. Shu, you made a mistake in your appraisal last time, which infuriated Her Highness. This is the punishment she insisted on."

"Our Dark Cloud spell will only last a few days. We'll secretly withdraw once His Highness's anger has subsided."

Ms. Tree was taken aback, and a strange expression appeared on her face, which was full of maternal radiance.

"What identification went wrong?"

"This is it." Lywind took out a collector's edition of "The Cat Saintess" and handed it to Ms. Tree.

She already had several of these books in her spatial ring, all collected under Elizabeth's orders.

Ms. Shu took a look, and her emerald green eyes immediately lit up, while her emerald green curly hair fluttered slightly.

He seemed quite excited.

"Oh, this is it. The packaging is even more exquisite than the last one."

As she spoke, she eagerly began to flip through the pages.

"Wow, there are even a few more close-up shots of feet, it's really making my skin crawl."

Lywin was exasperated and sighed in frustration.

"Anyway, you'll just have to bear with it for now. Once His Highness calms down, I'll let you continue sunbathing."

"It's alright, it's alright, I won't make things difficult for you, Little Liwend."

For a moment, there was silence between the two.

The Tree Lady turned the pages of her book, while Lywind leaned against the tree trunk, watching the battle maids cast spells in the distance.

Lywind and Ms. Tree have been good friends since childhood.

Unfortunately, Lady Tree is the harvest tree that survived after the destruction of the Harvest Church.

There will never be a chance to be allowed to leave this glass garden.

About five minutes later, Ms. Tree stopped flipping through the book and handed "The Cat Saintess" back to Lywind.

However, no one noticed that there was a hidden green color mixed in between the pages.

"Here you go, Little Lydwind, the book is back with you."

Lywind instinctively took it, then said "Eh."

"Um, Ms. Shu, you don't need to return this to me. I have several of these."

As he spoke, he handed it back to Ms. Hui Shu.

During this process, the green color transferred to Lywind's wrist and became completely hidden.

Ms. Shu clearly showed a look of joy.

"Really? Then I'll accept it without hesitation. The catgirl on it is really tempting."

"It's a pity I can't go out, otherwise I would definitely taste it with the vines."

Lywind assumed she was pleased about the books and waved her hand.

Seeing that the maid had finished casting her spell in the distance, she led the group away from the glass garden.

As the last maid closed the restrictive door, Ms. Shu's face instantly darkened.

She leaned weakly against the tree trunk, her body feeling even more unreal.

But hope shone in his eyes.

"Hehehe, sorry, Lywind."

"I'll have to trouble you to help me escape this time."

"As long as I find that cute little girl, I can escape from this dilapidated house."

"Hehehe, my giant vines are already parched with thirst."

……

Lywind walked out of the glass garden and led the maids to the dressing room to tidy up their clothes.

She will be leading the team to the New Sprout Street Church in a little while.

Firstly, there's the milk trade, and secondly, there's the need to deal with this photo controversy.

However, she didn't notice.

The extra bit of green on her wrist couldn't wait to follow it to New Sprout Street.
