I’m Trapped in a Bloody Reverse Harem Game - Chapter 7
1. (X) Wheel of Fortune (2)
“Yes, a prophecy has said so. You will save the Holy Land, the one who will lead the Empire back into the arms of God.”
“How can I… I can’t. Could there be some misunderstanding?”
I waved my hand as if it were absurd. The Pope smiled sweetly.
“Sister Haniel, the prophecy was directly given to me, so there’s no way it can be wrong.”
Oh, I want to skip this.
“Haniel…”
The Pope resumed talking about the story I had already heard. Looking at him reciting what I already knew, my eyes lit up.
The Pope’s words went in one ear and out the other as I admired his face. His straight nose and divine golden eyes were the most beautiful parts of his face.
Unlike the Pope’s delicate face, he had a devious side to him. It was a pity that the Pope liked toys. As I recalled everything, I felt my lower body throb, causing me to ship in my seat.
I could only have a relationship with the Pope after the Proclamation Ceremony, so I had to be patient. If I rushed in, I would ruin this round.
Holding back my desire to bite the Pope’s lips, I nodded earnestly. This time, I will definitely get the reverse harem ending.
“There is work to be done, Haniel.”
Finally the Pope’s explanation was over. Why did he keep twisting these words when he could just say to seduce the authority figures in the Empire? I wasn’t here to be a saintess, but a spy.
This was the time of game where I could manipulate the target characters by destroying the Empire. Ethics? They didn’t exist here.
And I picked up this game with my own hands.

During the tutorial, events that were not important to the progress of the game were automatically skipped. Time fast-forwarded, so now the Pope was speaking from the podium. His blond hair gleamed in the light.
He calmly finished his speech and looked at me.
“God has given us a precious person. Sister Haniel, I look forward to your achievements.
“Yes, Your Holiness.”
Before the service was over, the Pope smiled benevolently and called me out. I took his hand and stood next to him. I felt dizzy when I looked down from the high platform. The Pope, who felt me stagger, let out a low chuckle that only I could hear.
“Relax, Sister Haniel.”
Every time the Pope would speak so sweetly, he would move roughly. I nodded, feeling my lower half clench as his golden eyes stared at me.
When I nodded with a tense face, he looked at me subtly, before turning forward again.
“The prophecy has determined this person as a saint. She will be the one who will impart the teachings of God to the Empire.”
It was a good bluff.
Although I was a saint, my job was different to what the people watching me imagined. What I had to do was seduce the Crown Prince of the Empire and get rid of the kingdom’s weakness.
It was the most important mission in the game. I had to get rid of all its weaknesses so I can get a happy ending. This meant seducing the prince, the Grand Duke, the Imperial Knight and all sorts of people.
However, other extra characters who had no way of knowing exclaimed.
“Oh, God.”
“God finally sees us.”
Voices filled with emotion flowed from all over the place.
If there is a god in this game, it must be the development team of <The Saint is a Spy!>.
I licked my lips and smiled. People who saw my smile started whispering.
“Sister Haniel will be educated and canonized as a saint until she goes to the Empire.”
After the Pope’s words, the time for the final prayer approached.
“For our saint.”
Their prayers were for me.

After the Pope’s introduction, Ardal came to me. He looked down at me as I opened the knocked door.
“Ardal, what happened?”
“I’m here to deliver your training instructions, as His Holiness said.”
“Ah, training…”
Knowing in detail what the Pope’s education was like, I bit my lip, unable to hide my anticipation of what was to follow.
“If it’s okay with Haniel, His Holiness wants to start training today. He said he wanted to say a lot of things before you go to the Empire.”
“I see. I also want to learn many things from His Holiness.”
I gave a standard answer and smiled at Ardal. Ardal looked at me, smiling with slightly wrinkled eyes. There were only two people here who knew what I had to do as a saint: the Pope and Ardal.
Ardal was not in charge of education, but he knew what the Pope’s education was about.
“Haniel, education is…”
Looking at my expectant face, Ardal pursed his lips together. He shook his head, closing his lips as he tried to speak.
“Oh, nothing. I’ll show you to the office.”
Ardal, who led me to the office, continued to look at me as he left to go to the garden. I waved my hand and laughed brightly until he left.
The other paladins guarding the Pope’s office glanced at Ardal, thinking his attitude was strange. Conscious of other people’s gaze, Ardal briefly bowed his head and turned.
As expected, this time, Ardal cares about me. I laughed contentedly and knocked on the door.
“Come in.”
As soon as I knocked, I heard an elegant voice from the office. As I opened the door and peeked inside, the Pope, who was sitting in front of the desk, stood up from his seat.
