Chapter 199
Wait, that’s my prey (not).
Noah’s tone was even more teasing.
But Clotilde was taken aback by his words.
Because Noah’s teasing was actually the truth.
She had been searching for Noah because the succubus’s curse was about to be triggered.
If she had endured it until tomorrow, it would have been fine, but she thought that if she didn’t take care of it today and something came up tomorrow, she would be in an even more embarrassing situation.
So, with the idea of early detection and early resolution, she searched for Noah within the grand church, but couldn’t find him.
Assuming that Noah must have gone out to do something, she immediately left the church and began searching for his figure.
She had originally thought that she would try to find him.
If she couldn’t find him, she would just wait for Noah in his office, where he would eventually return after his escapades.
But she actually found him after searching for about an hour.
When she saw Noah’s carefree figure, she felt a bit annoyed and unintentionally questioned what he was doing.
But when she thought about it carefully, she realized that she was being strange. Why did she think that something would happen tomorrow that she wouldn’t have time to handle?
In the past, she wouldn’t have bowed her head to Noah unless the succubus’s curse was about to be triggered.
But now, she surprisingly didn’t sleep, and instead came out to see Noah in the middle of the night…
Could it be that she subconsciously wanted to do that kind of thing with Noah?!
The nun, Miss Clotile, suddenly had a terrifying thought flash through her mind and immediately widened her pink eyes.
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
As a devout nun who believed in the goddess, how could she possibly have a subconscious desire to do that kind of thing!
“…How did you suddenly become silent, standing there alone? If it’s nothing, I can leave then.”
Under the hazy moonlight, Noah could still see Clotile’s expression.
That disbelieving expression, Noah could see at a glance what she was thinking, so he intentionally said he wanted to leave.
“Wait, wait a minute.”
Although her thoughts were still chaotic, Clotile didn’t want to let Noah go so easily, so she temporarily put aside that terrifying thought and called out to him again.
“Yes, what’s the matter?”
Noah’s face wore a sly smile as he asked her what she wanted, actually wanting to hear the answer she didn’t want to admit.
“There’s, there’s nothing, I just felt worried when you suddenly disappeared in the middle of the night.”
Meanwhile, Clotile slowly approached him, trying to appear calm as she explained with other reasons.
However, she wasn’t entirely lying; she did feel worried when Noah suddenly disappeared.
“Oh, it’s worry, huh? I thought it was definitely a lust problem~”
Noah intentionally spoke the truth in a frivolous tone, his eyes still sizing up Clotile’s abdomen.
A smile spread across his face, making it clear he had already seen through her.
“Gah…Damn it, since you’ve already seen through me, don’t pretend to be stupid, Mr. Noah, you sly priest!”
Being teased by Noah, Clotile finally realized her thoughts had been exposed.
So she immediately blushed with anger and glared at Noah.
While her mouth cursed and despised Noah, her hand actively grabbed his arm.
She thought that since she had already been exposed, she couldn’t let Noah go; she had to make him help her, or else she would be ridiculed by Noah for nothing.
“Huh?”
But just then, Dorin, disguised as a little girl, walked out from the corner and saw this scene.
She naturally felt excited to see the priest, as her delicious prey was right in front of her.
But when she saw the nun beside him, Dorin immediately let out a surprised cry.
Because she couldn’t understand why the priest and nun would appear together on the street at this time.
Her surprised cry naturally reached Clotile’s ears.
At this time, seeing a little girl walking alone on the street, Clotile’s duty as a nun immediately suppressed her desire to vent her lust.
So she hastily asked Dolin in a soft voice:
“Hello, as you can see, we’re nuns and a priest from the church. Why are you alone here? Did you run away from home?”
Clotile thought for a moment, and this possibility seemed the most likely.
Because Dolin’s attire was neat, and her face didn’t have any dust, she didn’t look like someone who had escaped from a criminal organization.
Instead, she looked more like someone who had a fight with her parents during the day and ran away from home at night.
So Clotile casually dropped her hand from Noah’s wrist and walked to his side, adopting a serious nun’s attitude to inquire about Dolin’s situation.
Dolin’s reaction was to look away, gazing at the ground, and speak in a childish voice, stuttering:
“Ah, no, uh…”
This was actually an act, a performance fitting for a ‘runaway who’s embarrassed to be discovered by a priest and a nun’.
As a succubus, Dolin understood the thoughts of her arch-nemesis, the clergy.
As long as she acted this way, she wouldn’t be suspected.
“It’s okay if you don’t want to talk, but it’s really not safe for you to be alone at night. Would you like to come with me to the church and rest for a night? Father Noah, it should be fine, right?”
Clotile, now in ‘nun mode’, had lost her rich expressions from when she was talking to Noah privately.
Her tone was gentle, and she smiled, showing concern for others, completely embodying the ideal image of a nun.
She even actively steered the conversation towards Noah, who hadn’t spoken, making him look less awkward.
—Although Noah was intentionally not speaking.
“Hmm, of course, it’s not safe for a young child to be walking alone on the streets at night. Child, would you like to come with us?”
Despite knowing that the other person was actually the succubus Clotile disliked the most, Noah still pretended to be an ignorant priest and stretched out a hand towards Dolin.
“Ah… hmm…”
Dolin, who had been sizing up the two, nodded and approached them.
—Heh, looks like a typical combination of a kind nun and a compassionate priest. As long as I find a chance to get the nun away, I can enjoy my meal~
Dolin, who was pretending to be pitiful, was actually thinking about how to humiliate Noah.
As a succubus, she only preyed on males.
Especially two types of people: those who indulged in their desires and sinners, and those who practiced abstinence.
Because both types had strong energy, Dolin, as a succubus, loved them.
She had intentionally made herself look younger to lure the former into committing crimes and to make the latter let their guard down.
Looking at the priest’s foolish expression, she thought to herself that she was definitely going to succeed today!
Just thinking about eating Noah made Dolin’s heart bloom with joy.
“—Wait, you’re a succubus, aren’t you.”
“…Huh?”
“Ah?”
But just as Dulin was about to touch Noah’s hand.
Clotilde, who had a gentle smile on her face all along, suddenly spoke out the truth in a solemn voice.
Upon hearing this, Dulin’s lovely little face froze.
On the other hand, a hint of a relieved smile appeared on Noah’s face.
It seemed that Sister Clotilde had finally smartened up once.
