"A limit?" Wondered Aquarina.
"Yeah, these types of things are not something we can get limitlessly. A reason why they waited for us to grow older might be so our souls get bigger and we can fit more divine protections… or something." I sighed. "Nonetheless, it's over now, we can just resume our daily lives I guess."
"But what about everything we learned? About the Saint of Spirits and the Hero of Wild Beasts?" Asked Aquarina.
"Ah yeah…" I sighed. "Right, we should tell our parents right away. Let's go, they should be awake by now anyways…"
"Okay!"
Aquarina quickly jumped off bed as she began undressing herself.
"Huh? What are you doing?"
"Let's go take a bath together! Been a while since we took one."
"Ah… S-Sure, I guess…"
Even now that we have confessed each other's feelings, Aquarina really hasn't changed at all in some things. Like her complete lack of common sense and embarrassment of being nude.
At the end, we relaxed in the bathtub, which was very big, and we washed each other's backs and long hair. Taking care of our long hair was really a chore. I had begun thinking about cutting mine to be honest.
A shorter hair would surely be more convenient at the time of fighting. But I guess it wouldn't look as cute. Well, I will take a decision later. My fighting style is mostly swordsmanship combined with magic, long hair gets in the way but it is not as if I cannot be just a bit careful and be done with it.
"Sylphy!"
Suddenly, I heard Alice's voice as I was putting on a more casual clothes, this time just a very simple green and brown dress, which is the most common color for clothes made by the elves.
"Alice! I wasn't able to contact you in there…"
"I cannot show myself in that place, I don't know what the gods would ever say or think, so I hid my presence and the system from them."
"Y-You did?!"
"It was quite hard, but I managed to."
Alice sighed in relief.
"Nonetheless, I've already finished assessing the strength you gained by the divine protections of those gods. And I have converted them into Skills as well! This is amazing, you've gotten two Skills right off the bat with them!" Alice seemed very happy.
"I guess… I've got some help from them." I sighed.
"Yeah, check them out!" Alice quickly showed them to me.
Ding!

The new Ability within Heavenly Sight was named [Hero Compass] and just as I thought, it allowed me to have a hidden compass in my eyes and points towards the heroes I want to see or find. By merely thinking about it, I suddenly can see a lit of the heroes within my sight, and where they might be. It is a bit confusing but even… wait what?! I can even see their names!

Damn… I could see them! And how many are there? Ah, I can even see Aquarina on it! So she's Glacial Oceans? Damn that's kind of a lame title, couldn't they think of something better? Ah, I am also there.
Anyways, the other Heroes I can see is… Lara, Luck, and Ruby. Two of them are… Anima? What is that? And then the other is a Dwarf! I don't know if they're males or females, but based on names alone, the Saint and the Forging Hammer Hero are girls, and the Wild Beasts Hero is male.
Oh wait, I can actually touch these things and find information in them?
Then…

[Race: Sheep Anima]
Often referred as Beast people, Beast-kin, and so on. They're people that is half beast. There is a wide variety and many tribes spread across the world. Said to have been created by the gods in an attempt to connect more with nature. They vary from friendly and nice to overly wild and savages.
Sheep Anima are the nicest of them all, often living in the peaceful plains, they are gentle hearted and help weary travelers. Due to their calm and gentle nature since birth, they had been hunted down almost to extinction. It is said they have an incredible affinity with the Spirits of the Land and their hair grows into fluffy wool with sharp horns they barely use to fight.

So our Saint is not even a human nor an elf.
It is an Anima, a sheep girl!
