Delia (Anime)

Delia (デリア Deria) is an orphan who is a grey apprentice priestess of the temple. Delia is assigned as one of Myne's attendants by the Head Priest, ordered by the High Priest, to spy on her.

She dreams of being the mistress of the High Bishop and living in luxury.

Delia is straight-forward and can be quite rude. She is good at heart and looked after Myne when she was her attendant. Furthermore, she supported Myne's effort to save the orphans by bringing some food for the orphans and refraining from reporting to the High Bishop about that matter. She is a bit naive and never having known anything else, sees the High Priest's warped worldview as normal, leading her easy to deceive by the High Priest and his associates.

She was an unbaptized orphan when the blue priests started to leave the temple due to the purge, which severely decreased the Alm’s of the Gods for the orphanage. Delia managed to survive until her baptism, but was severely traumatised by her suffering in the orphanage. When she left the orphanage, she swore never to return. She is chosen to serve the High Bishop because of her beauty and educated to be a future mistress. Due to being raised in the High Priest's chambers, she fully believes it is normal for commoner girls to aspire to become concubines and openly states her desire to become one.

When Myne joins the temple, the High Priest decided to assign Delia as one of her retainers to spy on her. With both of them being young girls, the he believed that she would be able to get close to Myne. Delia botched this plan almost immediately by being rude and bluntly stating to Myne that she was the High Priest's spy.
