The more they oppose, the more it shows that I am doing the right thing

November 10, Sunny.

Not long ago, the Radiant Holy Saintess's humiliating defeat had become the biggest topic in the entire light novel community.

On that night of the Red Moon, defeated by the five-nut mooncakes, it was considered the greatest shame of Luojia's life.

Over the past four months, Luojia had been constantly thinking about how to redeem herself.

That damned An Su Moningsta, the demon of the Chenxing family, the despicable Child of the Curse who gathered limbs to support his evil sacrifices—as the Radiant Holy Saintess, Luojia was determined to subjugate such a demon to the ground, and her "Saintess Demon Suppressing Chronicles" would end with the greatest conclusion.

And the promised day was today.

Today was the day of the Holy Sword's twin arrival, the biggest blessing day for all of Farlor, the perfect moment to defeat the evil An Su.

As the saying goes, sharpening your axe will not delay the chopping of firewood, to subdue such a demon, one must purchase the necessary equipment.

The 'Third Tier Holy Wand' from Saint Alice Magic-guided Shop, a witches' hat and a magic cloak from Champs Elysees, a Holy Cross, and from the Farloria Cake Shop—three blueberry cakes, two strawberry cakes, one tiramisu, and some cocoa chocolate...

—"So, you're saying that's the reason?"

An Su looked at Luojia expressionlessly, "You forgot you were out of money while shopping... so the shop owner called me to pay and redeem you?"

"Didn't you just receive your monthly allowance, and you've already spent it all?"

The Little Saintess turned her face away, guiltily avoiding An Su's gaze. She tugged at the brim of her newly bought witch's hat, covering her ears, and wrapped herself in her cloak, like an ostrich, "It's all necessary equipment to deal with you."

"At worst, I..." she mumbled, resigned, "I'll just keep owing you money."

"Is cake also necessary equipment?"

"Ugh..." Unable to argue back, Luojia weakly said, "Because today is Double Swords Day, there's a nationwide discount... fifty percent off."

"You spent a total of one thousand Gold Coins."

An Su looked at the bill, shaking his head, "How did you manage to spend this money... The cakes together only cost fifty Gold, and all the trinkets you bought at most are worth two hundred, where did the remaining seven hundred fifty go?"

"How come everyone else makes a profit, but you lose more money the more you discount?"

His eyes a pale azure, An Su spoke impassively, "Tell the truth."

"...Ugh, annoying guy."

Luojia lifted her witch's hat, her misty white eyes glanced at An Su. She pursed her lips and sighed, "I told you, it's all equipment to subdue you."

"Chuunibyou Saintess," commented An Su.

She turned around, pulling out an exquisitely misfit box from the shopping bag. Opening it, inside was a magician's robe made from ice silk, shimmering in the autumn sun. The box had a tag hanging on it that read, 'Balenciaga, original price one thousand five hundred Gold Coins.'

"I noticed you always wear robes from this brand," Luojia turned her face and handed the box to An Su, "but I couldn't afford the usual prices... so I saved up for four months, and only today could I afford it."

"It just got carried away shopping." The Little Saintess admitted with a sideways glance, sticking out her tongue, "Ended up buying a few nice clothes for myself too... so I went over budget."

"I'll pay you back," she said earnestly.

An Su looked at the robe, somewhat stunned, "Why did you buy it for me?"

"Maybe as an early birthday present?" Luojia tilted her head, "Your birthday is next month, right?"

"What's the real reason?" An Su felt Luojia was lying, "Birthday presents don't need to be this expensive, Chuunibyou Saintess."

"The real reason?"

Luojia stood with her hands behind her, her misty eyes lowered slightly. As the autumn wind blew, it lifted her newly bought witch's hat, scattering her snowy white hair in front of An Su like catkins; though it was late autumn, the young man saw both the desolation of late winter and the vibrancy of spring at once.

"I've told you, dummy."

The Little Saintess quickly adjusted her hat back on her head, stepping on her tiptoes, and she whispered near An Su's ear,

"I did it to subdue you."

"Rude and annoying Mr. An Su."

With the wind of the Imperial Capital rustling and the Maria River shimmering behind them because the Little Saintess and An Su went shopping, I'm taking a day off, and next time I'll update "Saintess Demon Suppressing Chronicles."
