I'm really not a Sanctuary Warlock.

The monster's health dropped by another ten percent.

One more to go.

However, just as Anna was about to unleash the second Holy Light Judgment, the power in her body seemed to be instantly drained.

Unable to maintain her flight posture any longer, she plummeted straight down from mid-air.

"Depend on."

Lynn saw this scene from the reef and his heart clenched.

Everything happened so fast.

Lisa had no time to react; she could only watch helplessly as Anna's figure plummeted into the churning black waves of the sea.

We can't let her fall!

"Angel with Broken Wings".

Lynn no longer hesitated.

I don't care if I have to exhaust my sanity!

A clear bird song echoed through the sky, and a vulture with the outline of an angel and tattered wings appeared out of thin air.

It caught Anna precisely in mid-air, flapped its wings, and steadily placed her on the reef.

As Anna fell unconscious, the holy light shield that had been protecting Lynn and Lisa shattered and disappeared instantly.

"You stay here and take care of Her Highness!"

Lisa decisively held her longsword horizontally in front of her, her back to Lynn, facing the mutated siren alone, which was severely wounded but still deadly.

Lynn did not respond.

His world is gradually darkening.

[Sanity: 60-50 / The evil god doesn't believe you can kill His followers; He is mocking you.]

Are you mocking me?

Lynn looked at Anna, who was unconscious in front of him.

In just three days, everything in this world kept refreshing his understanding.

It's one thing to be transported to another world, but to encounter such a monstrous enemy right at the start is another.

He wished it were all just a dream, a dream that wouldn't end badly.

If a dream doesn't have a bad ending, is it still a dream?

Lynn looked up at Lisa.

Holding the sword in her left hand, she reached her right hand towards her neck and forcefully ripped off the cross pendant she always wore.

The pendant seemed to contain some kind of power, turning into specks of light the instant it left her body.

Lisa's body trembled slightly, and a tear slid down her cheek.

"Your Highness, my journey has come to an end."

Her voice was soft, and her tone was full of relief.

“You’re right, the path of punishing nuns for their sins is not without thorns.”

"I am happy to follow you."

Lynn instinctively cast an appraisal spell on her.

Name: Lisa

[Occupation: Punishing Nun]

[Level: 38]

【HP: 1%】

[Rationality: 100 / You know better than anyone what's going to happen next]

Health points...one percent?

What did she do?

"Sword of Dawn".

Lisa's demeanor underwent a dramatic transformation at that moment.

She was no longer the taciturn nun who only knew how to follow Anna, but had become a drawn sword, its sharpness fully revealed, carrying the will to cut through everything.

In Lynn's eyes, Lisa's entire outline began to blur, and her back view was like a giant sword reaching to the sky, radiating a scorching light.

The next second, Lisa soared into the sky.

Her target is the exposed heart of the mutated siren.

The battle is about to end.

This thought inexplicably surfaced in Lynn's mind.

"Holy Spirit Unicorn".

Lynn gave a low shout, and a pure white unicorn instantly appeared beside him.

He flipped himself onto the unicorn without pausing for a moment.

The unicorn's four hooves trod on the black sea as if it were flat ground, carrying him at breakneck speed toward the tail of the mutated siren.

What is he going to do?

He didn't know either.

All he knew was that he couldn't just stand by and watch Lisa die.

This nun, who was hostile to him from the beginning, yet did not hesitate to protect him at the crucial moment.

This nun would argue with him over the smallest things and get angry at his provocations.

This is the nun who resolutely chose to follow Anna after learning that she was going on a journey to her death.

She shouldn't have died here.

High in the sky, the sword light that Lisa had transformed into was already approaching the mutated sirens.

The monster seemed to sense its impending doom; it let out a shrill roar and its remaining tentacles lashed out at Lisa.

But all of this was in vain.

The sword light was unstoppable, easily piercing through all obstacles.

"Pfft!"

A soft sound.

Lisa's figure pierced precisely through the enormous heart of the mutated siren.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

The mutated siren's enormous body froze, and the light in its countless eyes was rapidly dimming.

It's now!

Lynn, riding on the back of the unicorn, had already rushed to the bottom of the siren.

He raised his hand and pressed it against the mountain of flesh, frantically recalling the contents of the "Binding Code".

A sinister power surged from his palm and instantly entered the siren's body.

He didn't even have time to sense whether the mental link had been successfully established.

Because Lisa had lost all her strength, she had fallen into the sea.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lynn jumped off the unicorn's back and plunged into the icy water, swimming with all his might towards the direction where Lisa had fallen.

Chapter Twenty-Three: The Siren's Song

The icy seawater instantly enveloped Lynn.

His world was fragmented into countless distorted blocks of color, which flowed continuously, like an abstract painting that had been shattered and then haphazardly pieced back together. Under such intense visual interference, searching for a sinking person was nothing short of a pipe dream.

The winged angel had been taken back by him after catching Anna, and could no longer be relied upon.

Regret?

An idea popped into his mind.

regret.

I regret it so much I could die.

What possessed him at that time? Why did he suddenly have the idea to take Anna and Lisa on a rational descent?

He thought that the monster he encountered this time would be like the Holy Spirit Unicorn; although it was high-level, there was always a way to deal with it.

Who would have thought that this mutant siren would be so tough and so difficult to deal with?

The Holy Spirit Unicorn was crippled by just one Holy Light Judgment, while this Siren withstood several of Anna's high-level spells and still managed to survive until the end.

This outcome was all due to his damned arrogance.

Lynn frantically waved his arms, searching for the falling figure.

Finally, he found it.

Lisa's body was slowly sinking, her black nun's habit was spreading out in the seawater, and her long silver hair was floating in the current.

Her eyes were closed, and she fell silently and lifelessly into the endless abyss.

"Please, don't die."

Lynn screamed wildly in his heart.

If something happens to Lisa, Anna will feel guilty and sad for a long time after she wakes up.

He couldn't let her lose Lisa.

Lynn swam over with all his might and grabbed Lisa's arm.

Identification techniques.

Name: Lisa

[Occupation: Punishing Nun]

[Level: 38]

[Health Points: 1% (Near Death)]

[Rationality: 101 / You know better than anyone what's going to happen next]

Health points remained a precarious one percent.

Lynn dared not delay any longer. He embraced Lisa's soft body, turned around, and swam upwards with all his might.

However, he overestimated the strength of his body; with an adult on his back, he was simply unable to overcome his own gravity.

He was getting further and further away from the sea.

No, no, no, no.

The air in his lungs was completely squeezed out, the feeling of suffocation burned his brain, the world in front of him began to turn black, and the colorful patches of color gradually faded away.

There must be... there must be some other way.

Just as Lynn's consciousness was about to be swallowed by darkness, his vision went dark for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, a clear and melodious song pierced through the seawater and entered his ears.

The singing was incredibly beautiful, dispelling the suffocating pain and the fear of impending death.

A translucent bubble appeared out of thin air and enveloped him and Lisa.

Fresh air rushed into his lungs, and Lynn greedily took deep breaths.

The bubble carrying the two people stopped sinking and slowly floated upwards.
