I guess I haven't taken the time to look at the Holy City once since I came to the Holy City... Huh? Have I ever taken a stroll since I came into this world? I realized I hadn't once thought about it that way.
　Hurt by a life I couldn't afford, I was speechless as I made my way through the slums.
There were great puddles of blood in many places.

　The next thing I knew, I was calling out instructions and invoking magic on the injured man.

　And as soon as I began to heal, the girl pulled my robe away, and I saw that the bloody beastmen were unconscious while armed to protect one of them.
　Apparently, he's still alive.
　The moment I walked up to them, I said, "Watch out. I heard a voice say, "Watch out..." but the beastman, who I wasn't expecting, stabbed me in the side as hard as he could.

''Ahhhh, it hurts. It's super painful. I don't want to do this anymore. I'll fix everything.
I chanted Area High Heel with tears in my eyes.
Next, I cast a purification spell to cleanse my body, and with the recovery, I finally calmed down after casting a high heel on the dagger wound that I pulled out while waking up the beastman who stabbed me.
I'm tired of it. Where is the gentle patient? "I'll treat the weak and the safe.
　After I made such a proclamation, the people who heard it led me to the people who were quiet, so I treated them in turn.

　Luciel was trying too hard to notice, but various impressions spilled out of the mouths of the adventurers as they saw the scene in front of them.
'Did you see that? That beastman's sword pierced through the Holy Transformation and I angrily cured you!
If you're just a regular healer, you'll be dead or out cold.
Yeah. Normally, I wouldn't be able to do magic.
More importantly, how would you normally refuse treatment?
If it hurts, it must hurt, right?
'Isn't that the one, really, where you get hit like a zombie?
But we'd have been in a bad way if it hadn't been for that, wouldn't we?
''Yes. Besides, there are a lot of adventurers in this holy city who were saved by Saint Hen-sama, so that beastman and the other beastmen were bad.
''I suppose. You're young and almost forgetting that you're wearing that armor, which means you're probably in a higher position in the church, and I hear you're on good terms with the War Maiden Holy Order.
Maybe the riots, or the humanists, or whatever else they've been up to.
This is gonna be a problem if we don't keep an eye on it.
All right, everybody, let's keep a lookout.
Oh.

　I had no way of knowing that such a conversation had taken place, and the slum dwellers, including the beastmen, were to be treated all at once for this reason.
　Thus, for three days, I went to the slums while treating the adventurer's guild, cleaning and thoroughly curing the injured.

　The people in the slums were scared at first when they saw me, but when they learned that I was going around healing and cleaning for free, some of them revered me.
'All I can do is charity, like I did this one time. I did a lot of charity work because I wanted people to be kind to me. Please do charity work like I did and hope that people will be kind to others. I hope that someday the kindness I gave will be returned. Then I am sure that someday those kindnesses will help you. I believe in you all.
Thus I finished my three days of laborious service with a laugh.


''.........So, um.......Isn't it time to get your head off the floor? And I don't want any more strange rumors to spread.
　A group of beastmen are on their knees in the master's room of the Adventurer's Guild, and it's really......mentally tough.
　If this is the case, it's still much easier to keep fighting the undead.
　I couldn't even blurt that out.

''I didn't think it was a high-ranking healer who would have unexpectedly stabbed a sword into such a noble person. It's not enough to give this life.
''Yeah. Yeah, I don't need that. Well, I understand that you're a delegation from the Free City State of Yenis. So, why were you dying?　
　It is a free, self-governing country with no racial discrimination and is run by the people's representatives, a rare form of government. It is said that the term of office of the representative changes every two years.

Yes, sir. "Yes, I have come to ask you to create a guild of healers in Yenis.
I see.
'I have contacted the Church of the Holy City of Schuler to meet with the Pope, and as we were nearing, we were attacked by bandits. The bandits were undisturbed and disciplined, and we were in danger.
I smell a conspiracy in the air.
'I'm a healer, so I can't do this case. But how did you manage to get away with it?
Yes. We were really lucky and managed to get away with it when the magical beasts and adventurers showed up.
I see. So, are we going to be able to meet?
Yes. As a matter of fact, we had a meeting just now, and we got everything done without incident.
Is that so? Then you had better be careful on your way home. For example, they could attack you on the road, call for your help, and then actually scream the moment they get close enough to you to make up a false accusation. That's right. You might want to stay in the Adventurer's Guild for a while and have the adventurers notified of the outcome of the meeting. And, if money permits, ask the guild master to find a trustworthy adventurer to escort you on the way home.
"...is that all?
''Yes. I'm also indebted to the beastmen, and some of them are close to me, but it seems that there are many people in this country who are humanist. Especially in the Healer's Guild, there seems to be a pushy faction like that as well.
"Thank you for your help.
No, no. Well then, Guildmaster, you take care of the rest. I have some church business to attend to.
Yeah. You've been really helpful this time.
'We've received a lot of information about the undead here as well. I'm your partner. Also, there may be a period of time from now on when you can't come, so please be careful. Then, everyone, if you have a chance, we'll meet again somewhere.
　Thus I was about to leave the room when I was hugged by the girl who pulled on my robe with a quick yank, Sheila, who was unable to speak because her vocal cords were cut off.
'Sheila-chan, you are a hero for saving the people here. You're going to keep trying to keep up with fate.
　I was reluctant to do anything, so I cast a spell and left the room.

　Little did I know at the time that this encounter would later change the course of my life.


'Oh? You're going in the maze now?
Yeah. It's all a bit of a needle in a haystack, so we're lucky to have enough food and supplies for about six months, so we'll just live in the maze.
I didn't mean to be an idiot. I'm not stupid. I just didn't think we could let that happen.
''That's right. But it seems that this whole thing has made me look bad, and I'm afraid of assassinations and attacks, so I thought I had to be strong enough to escape.
"...I'll talk to the Pope about it.
Yes. Please. But still, it's a scary world to be hated just for helping people.
'It really is.'
I'll be off on my own then.
Yeah. Have a good day.

This is how I stepped into the labyrinth training ground.
