Chapter 142 ~ Saintess
Chapter 142 ~ Saintess
Witch of Immortality: “Hello. It is nice to meet you. My name is C.C. I believe this is the Multiverse Group Chat Yuuji is talking about.”
Upon sending her message, C.C couldn’t help but notice the nickname displayed on the group chat.
The witch of immortality… It was an unsavory nickname, but it was an apt description of who she was.
If possible, however, she’d like to change it. After all, she didn’t want her future comrades and friends to think of her in such a light.
Kiryuu Aika: “Ah! As I expected!!! You guys invited her after all!!!”
Kiryuu Aika: “Welcome to the group chat, C.C~!!! I knew you from the anime, and I’m such a big fan~! Let’s get along well!”
After Aika’s enthusiastic welcome, Erika, Tatsuya, Satoru, and Lelouch also welcomed her to the group one by one.
And upon seeing their warm welcome, she couldn’t help but feel a warmth she had long since felt before surge within her heart.
Witch of Immortality: “Thank you very much for the warm welcome, everyone. I’ve met Tatsuya, Satoru, and Lelouch, but I have also heard plenty about Aika and Erika from Yuuji. I hope we can get along well.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Fufu~ Of course~ We’ll be sisters from now on, after all~”
Cecilia paused for a moment… Sisters…? How did Aika know that she’s in a relationship with Yuuji as well…? She hadn’t even told her about it.
Witch of Immortality: “H-How did you know?”
Kiryuu Aika: “Hm? Of course I know! I know that you and my hubby would definitely get together, which makes us sisters~! And… I’m guessing Karen is also our sister, right?”
Cecilia couldn’t help but look at Aika’s messages in shock… Did Aika have some sort of clairvoyance? How could she guess so perfectly…?
No… Yuuji never told her anything about Aika having any clairvoyant abilities. So… she must know Yuuji so well that she could predict it to an extent.
Witch of Immortality: “Yes, you’re right… As expected. You know Yuuji so well, Aika.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Of course~! He’s my hubby after all~ And Erika could’ve also seen it coming too! In fact, we’ve talked about it before~”
Chiba Erika: “Well, considering his tendencies, it’s easy to guess…”
Cecilia smirked when she saw her sisters’ messages.
Witch of Immortality: “I see. That makes sense. Yuuji is a playboy, after all.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Yup~!”
Chiba Erika: “Yes he is.”
Reading the chat, the guys all kept their silence, not wanting to get into this conversation. While the main person in their conversation couldn’t help look at the chat in disbelief.
Yuuji’s lips twitched as he read the chat and saw his girlfriends talking about him like this…
Was he so predictable…? Was he that much of a playboy that his girlfriends knew he’d make a new girlfriend when he goes to another world…?
I-I can’t even deny it though… Because I really made, not one, but two girlfriends…
He let out a sigh… Then he looked at his adorable slime twins on his shoulders.
“Girls… Do you agree with what they’re saying?”
With no one else to turn to, Yuuji hope that at least her cute, loyal slime twins would be on his side and assure him that he’s not that big of a playboy.
But to his shock… They both nodded unanimously.
“Guuuh… You girls…”
Yuuji felt a physical blow to his body when she saw them nod… And although the twins immediately went and console him by rubbing themselves to his neck, the damage had been done…
“Hah…”
He shook his head tiredly and began typing on the group chat.
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “You girls… Is this how you welcome your boyfriend back from a treacherous mission…?”
Chiba Erika: “It is the truth, though…”
Kiryuu Aika: “Yup~ We’re all saying facts~! By the way, you’ve given Karen the messaging app, right? Give me her contact! I want to chat with her as well!”
Chiba Erika: “Yes. I’d like to chat with her as well.”
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “I have. I’ll share her contact with you soon.”
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “Oh, and by the way, you can change your nickname here, Cecilia.”
Yuuji then began helping Cecilia change her nickname. And while she was changing it, she debated whether or not to change her nickname in the group chat to her real name.
Everyone in this group knew about her intimately, so there was no need for her to keep any secrets.
She was fine using her real name while being amongst them.
But… Being called by her real name still felt very special. And… she wanted it to be exclusive to Yuuji and her sisters.
So in the end, she changed her nickname to C.C
C.C: “Thank you, Yuuji.”
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “You’re welcome.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Oh, that’s right! Have you opened your welcoming package, Cecilia?”
C.C: “No… I haven’t got the chance to. Should I open it now?”
Kiryuu Aika: “Yes! Open it now!”
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “You can open it in your room, Cecilia. The welcoming package guarantees at least 1 SSR ranked item, and it might cause some… otherworldly effects which you might not want to be seen by others.”
C.C: “Alright. I’ll open it in our room.”
Cecilia, who was lounging in the living room, headed to the room she shared with Yuuji, which had now became her room.
She opened her Inventory menu, and clicked on the welcoming package item on the first square of her inventory.
She took a deep breath, tyring to calm herself and prepare for what would happen.
Then, she tapped “Open”.
“These are…”
Her eyes widened… There were a lot of things that looked amazing, judging by its name, and some she did recognize.
And as Yuuji said, one of them was an SSR ranked item, which was a guarantee in this welcoming package.
But the name…
“How ironic… I didn’t expect to receive something like this…”
She tapped the SSR item, and the large window appeared on her screen, giving her the details.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
To think that a witch, who had been condemned and burnt at the stake, would receive something that made her the “Saintess of Life”... Cecilia couldn’t help but smile at the irony.
It must be because I met Yuuji…
Reading the first line, she was reminded of Yuuji and how he completely turned her life around into something she could look forward to.
Even her past, which was filled with nothing but pain and suffering… She had begun accepting them.
After all, if it didn’t happen, then she wouldn't be here and meet the love of her life.
Well, there’s no use thinking about it. Ironic or not, as long as I can support him with this, it’s fine…
She began reading the descriptions of the item and the spells and effects it granted her, and couldn’t help but be impressed.
She had just become an extremely powerful holy maiden who wielded heavenly and divine powers. It was out of this world.
She didn’t really understand what the <<World’s Favor>> does, but it must be a positive thing, similar to Luck, so she was fine with it.
Then, Cecilia checked the SR item she received.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[SR] Circlet of Divine Protection
- Enhances all healing and supporting magic.
- Increases Magic Resistance.
- Creates a barrier capable of resisting any physical or magical attack below SSR rank upon receiving an attack.
- Dispels and prevents the activation of all Dark attributed magic effects in your vicinity.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yet another amazing item…
She pressed a button to equip it, and on her head, a beautiful circlet of white gold and diamonds appeared with a brief flash of brilliant light.
It looks… perfectly holy.
Perhaps it was only her imagination, or the still unfamiliar sense of recognition she felt, but she could see a brilliant white aura emanating brightly from it. It felt… warm and comforting, and she could feel a surge of energy filling her entirety from the moment she equipped it.
“Ah… This might seem too conspicuous…”
In a world without magic aside from Geass, such a thing might be too inconspicuous. Moreover, it was the modern world. Unless it was a country with such culture, wearing such a beautiful and noticeable circlet would definitely attract attention, including unwanted ones.
So, she decided to keep it in her inventory and only used it in case of emergency or if she went to a world of magic.
She then went through the rest of her items.
One of the rares she got was a 10% share of a company named Yummy Brands, which she soon realized that it was the company who owned her favorite pizza restaurant.
This meant that she’s now extremely rich and she could have pizza anytime she wanted!!!
“Great…! Now, I can have all the pizza I want without having to hear Lelouch complaining!”
Without the need to worry about becoming fat due to her metabolism and money being no longer a problem, Cecilia could indulge in her favorite food to her heart’s content~!
The group chat really knows what she loves.
Then, she checked the Uncommon items and saw that she had gained proficiency in guns, gymnastics, and piano.
The first two are useful. While being able to play the piano… Well, it might be a good way to spend time.
Perhaps, she could play for Yuuji and impress him when he visited.
She nodded in satisfaction.
The items she received from the group chat were all quite amazing. Even the common items were quite nice. Especially the <<Tantalizing Lingerie (White)>> and the <<Alluring String Bikini (Red)>> she received.
She’ll definitely have Karen wear the string bikini while she wears the lingerie and take a photo to send Yuuji and tempt him into coming to this world.
Hehe, I can’t wait to see his reaction~
Just then, several messages from Aika came to the group chat, asking her what she got.
C.C: “I got quite the haul. I’m very satisfied with them.”
Cecilia told them about everything she received, aside from the lingerie and bikini. She’ll keep them a secret to surprise Yuuji.
Kiryuu Aika: “Wow~ That’s amazing~!!!”
Chiba Erika: “It really is! Now we have two amazing defensive supporters in our ranks.”
Yuuji similarly couldn’t help but be amazed by the SSR Cecilia received. And at the same time, he was relieved.
Now, his worry for her, Karen, and Akane’s safety in that world was slightly alleviated. At the very least, he now knew that Cecilia could protect them and herself in case of danger.
After Cecilia, Tatsuya and Satoru also began pulling their free 10+1x gacha pull reward they received for completing the mission.
Tatsuya received an SR, 2 rares, and several commons. While Satoru also received some nice rewards, including a rare ranked <<Charisma>> passive skill.
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “Wow, congratulations, Satoru-san. You received quite the useful skill.”
Suzuki Satoru: “Yeah… I’m glad. This Charisma Skill will definitely help him when I go to the new world and become “Momonga”.”
Seeing his response, Aika and Erika couldn’t help but widened their eyes in surprise.
Chiba Erika: “Eh? Satoru-san, so you’ve decided to go to that world?”
Suzuki Satoru: “Ah, yes… Thanks to Yuuji, tatsuya, and Lelouch’s encouragement, I’ve made my decision to go… In all honesty, after tasting such clean air and seeing the beautiful nature, I really can’t return to my own world.”
Suzuki Satoru: “Even now… I really want to leave. I’d rather brave the danger and enjoy the beautiful world than stay here.”
Kiryuu Aika: “I see… Personally, I’m really happy that you’ve decided to go! Now, we can go adventuring in that world~! It’s definitely going to be so much fun~!”
Kiryuu Aika: “Ah, but remember not to change Albedo’s settings like you do in the anime, okay?”
Suzuki Satoru: “I won’t do that!!! Now that I know it’ll become real, I won’t carelessly change the NPCs’ settings.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Well, you can change them for the better, but just don’t be careless. For Albedo, I think it’s better if you change it from being a slut, into an extremely devoted wife towards the individual she had chosen. A true waifu.”
Satoru read Aika’s message and fell into a thought.
Hm… That’s a good idea…
Although it was the intention of his dear friend, Satoru didn’t want her dear friend’s daughter to be a slut in reality. So… while he would still be changing Tabula’s setting, at the very least, it’ll be for the better.
I’m sure Tabula-san would agree, right…? I mean… A succubus who’s only devoted to one person… That in of itself is a gap moe, right?
Satoru nodded to himself and made his decision.
Suzuki Satoru: “That’s a good idea. Thank you for your advice, Aika-san. I’ll do as you said as soon as possible.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Uhn~! You’re welcome~!”
Meanwhile, in her room, Aika couldn’t help but smile and giggle in satisfaction.
Fufufu~ All according to plan~
Her eyes narrowed as a perverted glint shined from within them.
She couldn’t help but look forward to having Albedo, the super sexy succubus waifu, as her sister and share a bed with her.
Now, let’s change the topic before anyone notices~
Kiryuu Aika: “Yuuji, what about you? Have you rolled?”
Tsubakihara Yuuji: “No I haven’t. I’ll be rolling them now.”
Kiryuu Aika: “Great! Let us now what you get! With your “Lucky” trait, I can’t wait to see what you get!”
Sharing the same excitement, Yuuji quickly navigated towards his Gacha menu, say a brief prayer, and pressed the 10+1x roll.
His phone screen shined brightly, and when the light subsided, his eyes widened slightly as he looked at a particular item with slight confusion.
“Terminus… Est?”
Then they asked what Yuuji got.
Yuuji rolled and was shocked when he saw the first item.
“Terminus… Est?”
