I was far from being a Hero who would save everyone that needs help. It was difficult to even protect one\'s life, not to mention others.

However, it was Saintess Amelia, someone who had saved my life at the cost of her life span.

At the time when I was dying due to using Dark Energy, she saved me using one of the forbidden skills exclusive to only Saintess. I know for a fact that those forbidden reduce lifespan and are used only in extremely rare cases.

Even though we don\'t share the best of relations. Still, it was a fact that I owed my life to Saintess Amelia.

Even if I say that we don\'t get along well with each other and even found her personality not that good, our relationship was definitely better than some stranger. She also helped me on more than one occasion.

Even if we look at the bigger picture, she is someone who has helped and would help many people. She is a big threat to the devil and having her killed would surely affect the whole of humanity.

Therefore, I had to save her even at the risk of my life.

I could have informed The Authority in hopes that they could see through the Devil\'s plan and maybe hope for help from them. However, having read the novel, I knew that it would work.

The problem with The Authority and others at the top was that they were so hasty about winning the war that they forgot that the Devils usually try to eliminate the Saintess before a big fight. For them to forget that and focus on finishing the war was all due to their hastiness and also their arrogance.

They wouldn\'t listen to some strangers\' information without evidence. The only reason why they believed the map with Dark Guild\'s hideout was because many explorers found that the map was reliable. If not, they might not have even bothered to look at that information.

And if we wait for them to validate the information I send, it would be too late to save Saintess Amelia and her team.

And moreover, I can\'t fully trust The Authority to save Saintess Amelia. As Church and The Authority don\'t share a good relationship because of them both being powerful organizations, they might even want Saintess to be gone.

They are only working together because of the common threat that they share. Moreover, Churches view the Devil as their enemy or more like the enemy of the god that they serve.

Not only that, they might even use her to lure more Devil and Devil Contractors. That\'s why I didn\'t want to reveal such sensitive information, especially when it involved the life of my savior.

Anyway, thinking about that, isn\'t deploying Saintess so early kind of stupid? Saintess is usually deployed only during a critical time and for her to deploy so early. I can\'t help but feel some kind of scheme was going on.

However, without anything of such being mentioned in the novel, I could be sure of that. Anyway, I should first focus on destroying the Devil\'s plan and then look for the truth.

The Devil\'s plan was to lure Saintess into the battlefield. With how lucrative it was to finish the war, The Authority and other decision-makers at the top would definitely call upon the best weapon against the devil, Saintess.

However, that was what the Devil\'s wanted as well. They were willing to get all those Devils killed just to lure out Saintess.

Now, all the people would normally think that it is stupid to think that those Devils could kill Saintess on the battlefield, especially with all the other fights and Saintess herself backing them up.

If she was so easy to kill by the Devil, she would be called the devil by the devil themselves.

However, the Devils had never planned to make her appear on the battlefield or go and kill her themselves. They were going to lure her out to know her exact location and they were going to send their best assassins against Saintess.

And no, their best assassin is not some Rank-SS Devil who has mastered darkness or has resistance against Holy power. The best assassins against Saintess would be Devil Contractors.

Devil Contractors are like slaves to the Devil and are not considered as much of a threat as the Devil themselves. However, they also got an advantage and that\'s why Devil tries to also lure weak-minded people to become Devil Contractors.

One of their perks was being able to withstand the Saintess\' power. Despite gaining powers from the Devil, they were still human, at least had human bodies. Therefore, they don\'t become weak or die when they are exposed to the Saintess\' power.

That\'s why, the best assassins against Saintess were Devil Contractors. If they send Devils, they would only become weaker and there are chances that they might lose their strongest Devils which is detrimental for them.

Anyway, I believe that I could take care of those assassins sent to kill Saintess Amelia. Devil\'s Contractors at most are only at Rank-S, there was never a Devil Contractor beyond that. Even Rank-S Devil Contractor is a rare thing.

However, knowing how important it is for the Devil to eliminate the Saintess, the Devil must have sent only the best they have.

Although there is a chance that they might even send a Rank-SS, however, with Saintess, I could have a chance against him as well. And I doubt that Devil wants to lose Rank-SS Devils if they foolishly send him to fight against Saintess.

"Anyway, let\'s see what I can do!\'

If I can\'t kill the enemies, I was at least confident in escaping with Saintess Amelia. If push comes to shove, I would just save Saintess Amelia.

However, I knew that wouldn\'t happen. Amelia is surrounded by holy knights who are at least Rank-B and she also has her maid Adeline. I was not sure how powerful she is but at this point in time, I was sure that she is at least at Rank-A.

She was one of the strongest or at least one of the strongest in the future. Anyway, with such conditions, I didn\'t think that I would fail. Or more like, I can\'t fail.

-WHOOSH!

At the same time, the Saintess was going in the direction in which they were ordered to. They were told about the large invasion of the Devil that had been able to penetrate the human defense.

They were prepared and they had more than 50 holy guards responsible for the Saintess\' safety.

Holy guards were pretty excited thinking about all the devils that they could kill and the glory that they would earn. They were not concerned about facing strong Devils either. Against the Saintess\' power, they firmly believe that all the Devils will eventually end up dead.

Even so, the protagonist herself, Amelia, was quite scared. She is scared of Devils, which is why she was afraid of Zero when they first met. Zero had a similar kind of Dark Energy that only Rank-SS devils possess which scared her a bit.

It was only to do with the trauma that she experienced when she was just a kid. She was training to be a devil and was sent to defeat Devils. She was afraid at the time but that was because she was weak and inexperienced unlike now.

At that time, she met Rank-S Devils who killed every guard, every person who was sent to protect her. They thought that they had gone to a place where weak Demons and Devil roam but they encountered a strong devil.

That Rank-S Devil was specifically there to kill Saintess Amelia who was just going through training. They wanted to kill her before she became a threat to them.

Luckily, she was saved but she developed a trauma and she becomes scared when she sees Dark Energy. With years of training, she could at least manage to be calm in front of weak Devils, however, when she senses Dark Energy from a higher level of the devil, she trembles.

Even with such a big mission ahead, she was afraid that she would mess up. Unlike the holy guard who was excited, only bad memories were remembered when she was going down the road.

However, Saintess Amelia was a very hardworking and serious person. She knew that it was all to save people. That\'s why she can\'t be scared, she can\'t run away, and she has given her all.
