Bab 252: 133. An Extra Priest -2 (Part Two)

Translated by A Passing Wanderer

This kid, she had grown a lot stronger while I wasn't looking. Sure, that wonder drug could've had some effect on her, but it was most likely all of her effort paying off handsomely right now.

A once-in-a-generation talent, naturally-gifted physical prowess, and an unyielding drive – by having all of those things, Charlotte really did possess the natural disposition of a perfect Paladin.

I recalled the first time we met. "Weren't we also in a similar position back then, too?"

When I said that, Charlotte flinched a little, then began smiling wryly. She got off me, stood up, and extended her hand to me. "Yes, we were."

I grabbed her hand and stood back up.

I felt rueful. Actually, I was a bit unhappy, too.

I thought I'd be able to put up a decent challenge by using Kasim's soul, but to think that I'd be this outmatched by her… and so overwhelmingly, to boot.
