Priest is as much a red herring as the merchant, calling it now. He was just TOO suspicious, and they already established that the key only resonates with her bloodline, so it has to be someone else from the bloodline that she is not aware of.

Time to reveal who the bad guy is! And a bit about Mary at the end.

Is it the merchant?
NOPE. After he steals the book, he gets taken out rather fast, no longer important for story.

Is it the priest?
For the most part, he's involved with our favorite hated Theocracy. The priest and the guys from the theocracy are trying to change the floating island town into some kind of foothold they can use since they failed several times earlier. In the end they all fail, mainly cause of Mary's group. The priest in his final attempt tries to wakes up a dragon that was sealed and attempts to provoke the dragon in doing the work of God. Well, dragon nonchalantly steps on him mid speech and comments how quiet it got since priest died like bug getting stepped on.

The actual bad guy is...drumroll
An EVIL DRAGON! Well no, not really. It was actually the priest and theocracy but they already failed earlier. The dragon acts like it is evil and fights Mary. Mary does her magical girl doppleganger's ultimate magical girl kick at the dragon, taking it out in a single hit. Dragon turns out to be not actually be evil, dragon was involved with protecting the dark elves since the forest used to be more dangerous in the far past.

Does Mary gain another nickname?
Not really, but her legend as the Silver Saint/Silver Holy Woman/Argent Holy Woman(depending which TL we're using) spreads more. Despite her early attempts in keeping herself incognito. Some people slowly figure out who she is.

You know how it is, Mary can't help herself and gets involved with stopping the bad guys. She basically rides on Snow, attracts chimeras that were attacking away from the civilians, the chimeras get killed, the town is saved. Mary fights the "evil" dragon and wins, and the whole town is basically showing reverence to her by calling her the Silver Saint/Silver Holy Woman/Argent Holy Woman. Dragon also calls her that at one point.

When Mary defeated the dragon, she did it with a single magical girl style jump kick like her doppleganger earlier. However dragon attacked her too, basically her clothes got destroyed. She kicked through the dragon's attack and defeated the dragon with one kick. Once again, Mary realizes she's in a bad state, screams out she can't get married yet again. People who happen to be there also saw her basically knew to look away quickly. Snow protected her from view until someone gave her another set of clothes. Mary ends up wishing she had some kind of memory erasing beam, Tutte comments seriously that would be a frightening thing.

On a more serious note, Mary wonders if she'll too have to make a major decision in using her power to protect her family and friends. And considering that the Theocracy got involved again, we're probably heading towards some final confrontation with them....maybe. So far volume 6 is the current translated volume available by Jnovel club. Light Novel Volume 7 released at the end of 2024, so we're pretty much caught up with Japan, since this current arc is all of Light Novel Volume 6.

Is "unlocking a door just to get in it for a minute or two" really such a great event? Or it's because she's still learning how to use the key?
I think they would have expected to see a collection of cool ancient manuscripts. But they saw that book, turned around and ran away.
Must be one of those books that whispers promises of eldritch power at a horrible price. And it has a reputation.
So it's not so much stored there, as sealed away to reduce the harm it could cause.
Still weird they allowed outsiders to see underground archives.
Off limit, but show to ppl..
what an idiot person assigned as security..
That's what happens when the librarians are just 2 random loli, one of whom got the title by birthright instead of being qualified for it in any way. Honestly, they're doing pretty well, considering they shouldn't be doing it at all.
