There you can find 18 chapters in advance.

Sorry if there are some more errors than usual in the chapters that will be uploaded in the next 2 or 3 weeks. I have had some health problems these weeks, and that added to the stress of the exams of my career leaves me with very little time to dedicate to this.

Thanks to my patrons and to those who comment on the chapters. It means a lot to me and motivates me to continue this hobby of mine.

And, of course, thanks to everyone who reads this work.

*************************************

'Behind the Solitary temple, there is a flat piece of land where Delia and I stopped to train.'

'"Since you are a person who has never received any kind of physical training, we will start by warming up..."'

'Even when her condition should be good enough to fight in close combat, at first glance her body doesn't seem to have developed enough muscles to directly start practicing with the spear.'

'So, to avoid fractures and tears, for 15 minutes Delia stretched her body according to my directions. At the same time, I helped her in certain areas that she physically did not reach. At the end of this, her body was surrounded by sweat.'

'"When piercing with the spear, you should not necessarily move forward. But in most cases, you should move the soles of your feet like this... While your upper body should turn like this..."'

'With a spear in hand, I demonstrated the movements in front of her. So that she would first understand them and then replicate them. The spear I am using is one of the weapons I got from the thief extermination, but it looks low quality compared to the one Delia has in hand.'

'As I said before, I'm not an expert with the spear. So, my explanations may fail here and there but...'

'"Like this?"'

'"Perfect, very well."'

'Miraculously, Delia understood every one of my words, carrying them out perfectly. Is that how my parents taught me how to read and write?'

'This luck really is tricky… as long as you want something you'll get it.'

'For 2 hours I taught her all the moves Alessia performed when fighting, and Delia replicated them all successfully. However, fighting is not a matter of remembering moves, but how to be able to use them as the situation warrants. In the next few lessons, I plan to make her understand this.'

'In the meantime, it is time for lunch.'

'"... Medium Energy Recovery!" she performed the magic and all the fatigue from the training vanished into thin air.'

'Such magics make me think that warming up is useless… if you get injured you simply use healing magic and that's it. But doing such things leave out a very important point, and that is stamina.'

'For Delia, to use such magic on her is fine for now. From the beginning, she has had a weak body. So, such things will improve her performance. But in the future, when she wants to perfect her fighting style, such magics will be forbidden in her training.'

'"Since we have two rabbits, this time there will be... Grilled rabbit!" her three tails swung swiftly from side to side.'

'Hmm, if she continues, at any moment she will start to fly.'

'Time later...'

'On the table are two tender golden rabbits. The meat exudes an aroma captivating enough to make anyone hungry.'

'"This is the first time I've ever been so humbled and proud of this meal" Delia lifted her chest to emphasize her pride.'

'"Let's see how it tastes..."'

'I planned to play with her a bit. Being the one who will give the food a thumbs up, I had planned to praise her food to the skies but...'

'I swear to God... This meat is super delicious.'

'"I swear to God... This meat is super delicious."'

'"Don't swear in vain!"'

'But I was telling the truth!'

'Delia who didn't believe me cut some meat and tasted it.'

'Delia: "!!!!"'

'Delia: "Did... God guide my hand?"'

'Don't exaggerate!'

'I wanted to say that, but she speaks the truth.'

'Without even speaking we ate the two rabbits without leaving leftovers. Then, as if a luminous stone lit up over my head, I understood the reason for this whole situation...'

'[Luck=60]'

'As expected of someone with 60 points in luck.'

'I returned my status to normal to avoid sudden miracles.'

'***'

'In front of the Altamira labyrinth.'

'I activated the [Agility + Strength] profile and entered the labyrinth with floor 8 in mind. Yesterday, I realized that this profile was more than enough to fight solo while Delia was applying overkill on the monsters.'

'This time I want to check if it's possible to perform the same feat on floor 8. It's worth noting that from this floor onwards the adventurer groups are 4 people minimum, reaching even 6 people sometimes. So, fighting solo really is a great achievement.'

'[Snow Wolf Lvl 8]'

'"Huh?!"'

'Delia immediately took a step back the moment she saw this, because she must have remembered the bully monster that took her rabbits.'

'"Relax, Delia, you can do it."'

'"Y-Yes!"'

'Ah, for a moment the hallway lit up at the appearance of a new sun.'

'"Cof Cof..." Coughing a little, I returned my concentration.'

'With bow in hand, I aimed at the wolf's head. Specifically, at its eye. I watched it for a few seconds and then nodded. I have the confidence to defeat it in one hit. All thanks to the [Agility + Strength] profile, since it would be impossible with my normal status.'

'This is a very important discovery since, thanks to it, I will be able to continue with Delia's training.'

'Aiming at one of its front paws, I shot an arrow.'

'*Fwoosh*'

'The air roared at the shot.'

'"Graau!"'

'In the blink of an eye, the arrow pierced the wolf's right paw and it roared from the pain. Without wasting any time, I shot a second arrow into its left foreleg.'

'Just like the first one, this one went through its paw. Leaving a large hole in it, preventing it from being able to move and attack with them. The only weapon left on it is its snout.'

'"Delia, now the monster is completely weakened and will only be able to attack with its snout. I want you to attack with your spear without getting too close, and defeat it. Do you think you can do it?"'

'"...M- Mn, I will try"'

'Her nervousness returned. Yesterday, after giving the final blow to some monsters, she managed to gain some confidence and be able to handle the spear in a better way. But now she is again holding it with both hands, without confidence in her ability.'

'"Remember what I taught you today, you don't necessarily have to move forward. As long as you move your body and the soles of your feet correctly, you can attack with your spear!"'

'From a distance, Delia nodded at my words.'

'While she is only a few meters away from the wolf, I am dozens of meters away from them. This allows me to get a better view of the situation, and to be able to shoot without fear of hurting her in the process.'

'Taking a deep breath, Delia calmed down and prepared to attack.'

'"GRRR"'

'Looking at her menacingly, the wolf hinted that it won't let her get any closer. Delia for her part trembled a little, but still continued to approach.'

'At the distance of 1m, both Delia and the monster attacked at the same time. The wolf opened its snout wide while Delia pierced hard with her spear. At the moment the two attacks collided...'

'The spear broke several of the monster's teeth.'

'Delia: "!!!!"'

'- Can I really do it?'

'At this result, Delia gained a new kind of confidence. Not in her spear, but in fighting at close range.'

'Again, she attacked and so did the monster.'

'The clash between their attacks always resulted in Delia as the victor. And this is because the spear allows her to attack from a distance long enough to be able to avoid all of the wolf's attacks, making only her attacks the ones that hit the target.'

'Besides that, the spear possesses two abilities which are [Rock] and [Feather], making her attacks deadly.'

'First, it was the teeth, then the nose, and finally... The eyes.'

'The moment the spear pierced its eye, it did so in such a way that it completely penetrated its head, killing it instantly.'

'[Fang]'

'Happily, she picked up the loot and approached me.'

'"I was able to do it!"'

'"Congratulations" I stroked her head.'

'Since I've known Delia, she's never liked me petting her head either out of embarrassment or discomfort. But this time she started smiling and, at the same time, her 3 tails wagged to indicate they are happy too.'

'Ah, I want to take her home to take care of her and protect her.'

'Even when this sentence came back into my head, there was no more purification involved. She is a Saint who strayed from the path after all. Her purification no longer affects me. My chivalry quickly hid deep inside me, waiting for the moment to make its counterattack.'

'What a pity, I couldn't completely eliminate it.'

'"Shall we continue?"'

'"Yes, let's continue" She nodded with a different confidence than yesterday.'

'I'm slowly turning Delia into a combat nun. It doesn’t matter that she only defeated a disabled monster I shouldn't rush things. The current result is still good.'
