I don't want to be an elf!

She was hesitant to interrupt because the conversation between the two had been so serious and heavy.

But now, seeing Nia Honjo's transformation, the little girl was so excited she almost jumped up.

"Wow—! Nia-neechan is truly a goddess of heaven—!" Aihara Enju's eyes sparkled. "May I touch Nia-neechan's battle suit? It looks so high-class!"

"Oh! Of course!"

"Is this what silk feels like? It feels so comfortable..."

Aihara Enju reluctantly put down the hem of the Kamui Spirit Armor, Part 2, but she still couldn't suppress her envy.

At this moment, in her eyes, Honjou Nia was already synonymous with the Heavenly Punishment Girl.

Not only are they all chosen by the gods, but they can also summon battle suits and have their own magical tools.

Although she didn't understand what was happening, it didn't diminish her curiosity and excitement.

"you......"

"Ask any questions later."

Just as Rentaro Satomi had regained some composure and was about to ask something, Nia Honjou stopped him by raising her index finger: "Although there are few people here, there must have been people around who saw me in disguise. Before they, like you, figure out what's going on, let me finish what I need to do before we talk about anything else."

Nia Honjo opened her palm, and the writing pen that came with the Book Angel appeared in her hand.

“Every power comes with a price. When I realized this, it was too late.” Nia Honjo shrugged with a hint of helplessness. “I originally planned to keep this power sealed away, but given the situation today, I can’t just stand by and do nothing.”

The book of whispers turned its pages rapidly without any wind, flipping through many exquisite drawings left behind in the past.

Finally, it stopped on a blank page.

A brand new page in the book, with no past, existing only in the present, serving the future.

At this moment, the nun, who was exercising divine power, took the first step in changing the world.

She infused spiritual energy into the book and pen, and as the pen tip fell, visions from the future leaped onto the paper with her swift and powerful strokes.

Rentaro Satomi and Enju Aihara stared wide-eyed at the image on the page.

In the painting, two policemen are hit by falling billboards and fall to the ground, while the cursed child is lucky enough to stand in the gap between the words on the billboard, kneeling there blankly.

"What exactly is this?"

Rentaro Satomi couldn't understand why Nia Honjo had painted this picture.

Is this a curse?

Unable to change reality, he drew a curse, hoping it would come true?

"This is not a curse."

Honjo Nia spoke, as if she had seen through his thoughts: "This is the future, this is destiny, this is the established reality, which cannot be avoided or changed. As long as I can draw it, I will definitely be able to realize it."

"What kind of joke is this? It's utterly ridiculous!" Rentaro Satomi didn't know whether to laugh or be angry. "Although I don't know the principle behind your transformation, you're telling me that what you draw will definitely become reality? Do you really think you're a god?!"

"I am not a god, I am just a nun who has been given insignificant abilities by the gods."

Nia Honjo closed the murmured document and pointed to the billboard hanging in mid-air: "Behold, the scene when fantasy becomes reality."

One by one, the screws that were securing the billboard fell off.

It was as if an unseen hand was tearing them apart.

Soon, the heavy billboard emitted a tooth-grinding sound.

"Creak------!"

It landed before everyone's astonished eyes.

Then, it slammed heavily onto the two policemen.

They were buried in steel before they even had a chance to scream.

The abused, cursed child remained lying in the gap between the words on the billboard, unaffected by the abuse.

What is happening now is exactly the same as the scene depicted in the book.

Rentaro Satomi stood there like a puppet, staring blankly at the scene unfolding before him.

At that moment, he completely lost the ability to think.

"Why did the painting that Niya-neechan drew actually appear?" Aihara Enju murmured to herself.

“Because Mother is a nun, God’s representative in this world,” Nibekol said matter-of-factly. “Whether to mercifully save all living beings or cruelly cleanse the world of its filth, it all depends on Mother’s will.”

"Sister Erya, did you kill someone?"

“No, there’s no blood in the illustrations in the book. Those two policemen probably had broken bones, but at most they’ll be disabled for life and lose their jobs,” Nibekol said with a hint of regret. “Mom is as kind as ever.”

This sudden accident has drawn everyone's attention.

Even those who had just seen the two men in disguise were temporarily distracted.

"People saw me in disguise, and their attention is temporarily diverted, but they might come over and talk to me in a little while."

Honjo Nia patted Satomi Rentaro on the shoulder, left with her last words, and then ran away in a flash.

"Thank you for rescuing that child from the crowd. We'll meet at our destination!"

Chapter Ten Trust

ten minutes later.

Rentaro Satomi, who had been running wildly through the streets with the girl in his arms, finally arrived at the Tokyo branch of the International Initiator Supervision Organization and met Nia Honjo, who was waiting for them there.

At this moment, Nia Honjou had returned to her original form; neither the strange book nor her flowing nun's habit was gone.

Plaid shirt, jeans—completely unremarkable.

It's as if the mysterious nun who just appeared was really just an illusion.

However, the two policemen who were hit by the billboard in the shopping street were still buried underneath, and no one dared to come forward to help. The girl they had bullied was in his arms, not daring to move. All of this told Rentaro Satomi that what had just happened was not an illusion, but reality.

"I need an explanation."

As soon as he arrived in front of Honjo Nia, Satomi Rentaro asked a question.

As he ran, he kept thinking about what had just happened.

Although he witnessed firsthand the strange clothing appearing on Nia Honjou's body and the reality of what she had drawn, everything that happened was too bizarre, and he had no clue what to do even if he wanted to find the answer.

He has always been a staunch atheist, firmly believing that there are no gods in this other world, nor any mortals who can rely on it.

The Tendo family, which adopted him, has had a long-standing connection with Buddhism. He himself studied under the head of the Tendo family, Tendo Kikunojo, and learned to carve Buddhist statues for self-cultivation. However, he never had any interest in religious beliefs.

However, when he saw the scene drawn by Nia Honjou become a reality, his heart still wavered.

Looking at the guy in front of him who was still smiling and seemed to have done nothing, he felt like an ant was crawling inside him.

"Really, haven't I already told you the reason, and I've said it several times?" Nia Honjo said casually. "I am a nun chosen by the gods, an envoy to walk the earth in their place."

"Stop smearing nuns! What nun dresses like you?!"

Rentaro Satomi put the girl in his arms down and asked Aihara Enju and Nibekor to take her aside to comfort her, then asked in a somewhat frantic manner.

While he was even more shocked by the ability to turn fantasy into reality, that didn't mean he could ignore Nia Honjou's semi-transparent nun's habit.

Which god has such a wild way of doing things, making his nuns dress like that?!

Moreover, compared to a nun's habit, that thin fabric looks more like a sexy cosplay outfit!

"Haha, as expected, my spirit dress is a little too exciting for a virgin."

Instead of displaying any of the shyness expected of a young girl, Nia Honoka stuck out her buttocks and raised her chin, striking what she thought was a seductive pose: "How about it, young man? Aren't you already captivated by my curvaceous figure?"

"Can you be serious for once?"

Rentaro Satomi facepalmed, utterly unable to bear the sight, and said through gritted teeth, "Why is this old woman acting like a virgin! I have absolutely no interest in a woman like you, a seemingly forty-something-year-old auntie with no breasts or buttocks!"

"You're so stubborn! You don't need to be shy~"

"I don't care what your nun's habit looks like! Just tell me what happened!"

"You want to know my secret?"

"Isn't that obvious? Anyone who has just experienced that would be curious!"

“But since you know this is my secret, why should I tell you?” Nia Honjo’s expression suddenly turned serious.

Faced with Nia Honjo's blunt question, Rentaro Satomi was speechless, as if he had been choked.

Yes.

Why did she insist on telling me?

Although the two have been neighbors for a year and Aihara Enju and Nibekor are good friends, it wasn't until yesterday that their two guardians truly got to know each other.

The two remained strangers.

Under such circumstances, what right does he have to interrogate the other party about their secrets?

After realizing this, Rentaro Satomi's overheated mind gradually cooled down.

He quickly regained his composure.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pried into your secret so abruptly." He let out a long breath. "It was my oversight. I promise I won't ask any more questions. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone what just happened."

Faced with the somewhat reserved Rentaro Satomi, Nia Honjo's serious expression was quickly replaced by an unserious smile.

"Hahahaha!" Honjou Nia laughed loudly, "You act like a good baby after being scared a little bit. You really are still a child."

“Tsk…” Rentaro Satomi was speechless.

"Well, if you want to know my secret, that's fine, but everything comes at a price."

Nia Honjo looked at him with great interest, and after thinking for a moment, she proposed a deal: "Young man, I can tell you my secret, but you must also tell me your secret. Only in this way can it be considered fair, right?"

Rentaro Satomi pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

They were just neighbors who had met a few times; they weren't even close, let alone trust each other.

Without trust, she certainly wouldn't tell him any secrets.

However, since she openly displayed her abilities in front of him, it means that she definitely wants to establish a friendly relationship with him.

Nia Honjo has already shown her attitude. If Rentaro Satomi also wants to establish a friendly relationship with her, then it's time for him to make his statement.
