The day passed yet her investigation for the mission didn't amount to anything. Even though she finds Sheila and her friends suspicious, after a bit of stalk-Cough, investigating, Angelica didn't find anything abnormal that stood out from their ordinary life. In the end, she removed Sheila and her friends from the list and look for another suspect instead.

One day when Angelica was following behind one student who seemed suspicious, she witnessed the junior who seemed close to Sheila getting taken away by a group of men into a van without the girl being able to put up any resistance against them. Before she knows it, her gun was already in her hands and as she was about to rush to them following her instinct, she came to a halt and remember the warning that her mother told her before she left the mansion. With a helpless expression on her face, Angelica put her gun back and watch the van moving away into a distance.

Remember, the first thing you must do is to never show your gun in public. If the 'Outsider' were attacking ordinary people, you should attract it and bait it away to somewhere else before using the gun to eliminate it. This is not just for protecting you, we don't want our enemy to know that such a gun exists as unlike the others, the gun in your hand is unique. It could stay hidden as a normal ring and when materialize, it would turn into a deadly weapon that could pierce even the toughest metal so long as you have the 'ability' for it. Even without me saying this, you should already know since the gun 'choose' you, after all.

Although she could handle the group of men with only her bare fist, Angelica noticed that one of the men, the driver was holding onto a gun. No matter how strong she is compared to normal people, there's no way she could dodge a bullet with her speed.

This is not what I trained very hard for! Though fighting against the Outsider is considered as a heroic act, if no one is there to witness it, it all amounts to nothing! I want to be like that person, yet I also want the people to hear and talk about my heroic deed! thought Angelica in her mind while she walking on the way to school. When she arrived at school, as expected the news about a fellow high school girl getting kidnapped spread to the whole school.

Angelica ignored most of the students who were gossiping on the side while she was heading to her class. After greeting her classmates and chat a bit with others on her seat, a classmate ran over before quickly opened the door of the room and entered the class before mentioning how the teacher let Sheila go when the latter asked for a leave. The classmates feel envious that Sheila could skip class today yet, they couldn't do anything about it unless they could score the same as her or higher which is impossible. Since Sheila was quite close to the girl who had just been kidnapped, Angelica wonders if she had any connection regarding the case this time.

If she could take a leave, Angelica would have followed right behind, but her reputation would take a hit if she did that as it hasn't been that long since she had just transferred to this school. It was only when she goes to school the next day that Angelica found out the junior was fine as she didn't have any bruises on her body. When her classmate couldn't keep their curiosity and asked about the case, she won't say any word no matter how stubborn some students could be. Angelica would like to inquire about the girl too, but before she could walk toward Yuna who was seat together with Sheila and Ria, the phone in her pocket vibrates. She excused herself and went to the toilet before pulling her phone out of her pocket.

[ Where are you now? -Mother. ]

[ I'm on my mission at school. -YourLovelyDaughter. ]

[ Mission? Sigh, did those old geezers did it again? I really need to teach them a lesson when I'm available, but that's not the reason why I'm notifying you. Anyways, since you were there, I want you to investigate if there's any member from The Church in the region you're staying. I got some information that they are making a suspicious movement. -Mother. ]

[ The Church is making a move? But What about my current mission? -YourLovelyDaughter. ]

[ You can put it off, for now, do the mission I have given you. This is much more important than that side-mission. With that said, I'll be waiting for the news. Just don't do anything dangerous, okay? -Mother. ]

[ Yes! Leave it to me! -YourLovelyDaughter. ]

"The Church, huh? I wonder if that girl knows anything about this."

Angelica muttered softly to herself while pondering on one familiar blond-haired girl who has a huge cross floating around as if protecting something precious from the harm that might befall her one day. Though the girl certainly holds an important position within the church, and though she didn't have much power in her word, her position was unshakable below the Pope himself. She was a Saintess, after all. Though the two were quite close, Angelica didn't believe that she would outright tell her even if asked, it's also possible that the forces within the Church might have already gone and been protecting her from the shadow.

They should have investigated my background already so it's unlikely that they would let me go if I ask such sensitive question to her, in fact, even being the Saintess's 'friend' won't save me from their blade. Though it is unbelievable, the Saintess were so kind and pure that would make any person to immediately confess their sin after locking their eyes with her for more than an hour long. And one won't be influenced by her 'power' simply by not locking their eyes with her. That was the girl known as Saintess, it was the very reason why the Church 'keep' her in the dark. If she had known what the Church had secretly been doing behind her back, she would have commit suicide right there and then. Maybe if I can get away from those 'protecting' her, and was alone with her could I finally discuss with her about many of the Church's heinous crimes.
