I don't want to be an elf!

"Then come over here."

Nia Honjo and Rentaro Satomi exchanged a glance, neither of them having anything else to say for the time being.

So the two men waved to the two children, beckoning them over.

Lan Yuan Yanzhu and Nibekor skipped and hopped over.

The girl, who had been rescued by Nia Honjo and carried all the way by Rentaro Satomi, was a little timid and didn't know what to do.

Because no one explained what happened to her, she is still confused.

Although Aihara Enju and Nibekor had been trying their best to calm her down, the girl became even more confused by the two children's cacophony of explanations.

What "divinely punished girl" and "god's representative"? I can't understand a single word of it.

"Oh right, I almost forgot about you, little guy."

Honjou Nia bent down, patted the girl's hair, and said gently, "Don't be afraid. It was your older sister who rescued you from the police who were bullying you. You're safe now, and no one here will hurt you."

Feeling the warmth coming from above, the nervous and uneasy girl sensed the kindness and gradually relaxed.

"Thank you for your help, sister." The girl smiled sincerely. "Although this isn't the first time I've been treated like that, it's the first time I've been helped. You must be a very kind person."

"You have such a sweet tongue; you've hit the nail on the head."

Honjou Nia roughly rubbed the girl's face a few times, then touched the bandage wrapped around her eyes: "Are your eyes injured? I should be able to treat them for you."

"Thank you very much, but this injury happened a long time ago."

The girl shook her head, seemingly not wanting anyone to remove her bandages: "My mother hates these red eyes, so she filled them with lead. Now I can't feel any pain, and there's probably no way to cure them. I'm wearing bandages just so I don't scare anyone."

Upon hearing the girl's words, both Rentaro Satomi and Enju Aihara showed expressions of pity.

This child was undoubtedly lucky; at least her mother did not kill her at birth but raised her for several years.

But this child is undoubtedly unfortunate, because in this world, to be born as a cursed child is the greatest misfortune.

"Can she even be called a mother? If you've decided to raise her, then raise her properly!" Honjou Nia said angrily. "Not only did she fill her daughter's eyes with lead, but she also abandoned her outside. She's truly a disqualified mother."

“That’s not how it is. My mom has already tried her best. I don’t know who my dad is. My mom has taken care of me since I was little.” The girl’s tone was complicated. “Because of me, my mom had to quit her job and had to endure ridicule and abuse from people around her. My mom is a good mom. She put lead in my eyes because she was under too much pressure and broke down. She did that when she couldn’t control herself.”

As she spoke, the girl gave a helpless smile: "Because I am a cursed child, and those related to me will also be cursed. My mother has done enough for me, and I hope that after I leave, she can find happiness again."

Honjo Nia opened her mouth as if to say something.

But in the end, he couldn't say a word and silently patted the girl's head.

In such a turbulent and ever-changing end times, the boundaries between good and evil have long been blurred.

She didn't know how to judge the girl's mother, and she had nowhere to vent her anger.

It felt like punching cotton; all I could feel was a sense of powerlessness throughout my body.

Rentaro Satomi has probably already experienced this feeling.

But it doesn't matter.

Nia Honjo took a deep breath and forced herself to cheer up.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was intentional on the part of the system, but the core idea of ​​the task she needed to complete in this world was different from that in the previous world.

When she was playing Kurumi Tokisaki, all she had to do was spread fear.

In this world, what Nia Honjo needs to do is spread the gospel.

As a compassionate nun, she brought salvation and hope to the world.

Perhaps, it is not just about redemption and hope for humanity.

At the same time, he silently protected the world, giving everything including his life, and brought redemption and hope to the cursed children who were treated as monsters.

She finally understood how to complete the main quest.

Spreading the gospel is not merely for the sake of spreading it.

Rather, it is to bring the gospel to those who need it.

"Little one, what's your name?" Nia Honjo asked.

"Me? My name is Shiraishi, Shiraishi Hina."

"Hmm, it's a very cute name."

"My mother gave me this name, and I like it very much."

“Perhaps your mother really loved you,” Nia Honjou said. “Well then, Hina, I have a special gift for you. Would you like it?”

"My sister has already helped me a lot, she doesn't need to give me any more gifts."

"It's not an expensive gift, nor is it troublesome at all; it's just a painting."

"A painting...? Thank you for your kindness, sister, but I can't see it..."

"It doesn't matter."

The Divine Armor and the Angel of the Book reappeared, and Nia Honjo murmured to herself, "Because you'll see it soon."

Pick up the pen to record, and the murmured account automatically turns to a blank page.

As the pen tip touched the page, the images in Honjou Nia's mind surfaced on the blank page under the release of spiritual energy.

However, this time, she drew very slowly.

Because she could clearly feel the dullness coming from the pen tip.

The more contrary to common sense the scene is, the more time and spiritual energy it requires.

Compared to her previous depiction of billboards falling down, her current artwork is clearly more contrary to common sense.

At the same time, it brings us closer to a miracle.

A minute later, Honjou Nia let out a soft breath and closed the Confession Book.

"Alright, little one, you can take the bandage off now."

"My eyes are ugly, and I don't want to scare my sister."

"It's okay, it's okay, I won't be scared." Honjou Nia smiled and held out her hand. "If you're so shy, let me help you take it off."

Before the girl could react, she gently tore off the loose bandage.

The girl was about to stop her.

But before she could utter a sound, her body froze on the spot.

Because the darkness that enveloped her world disappeared.

Sunlight streamed into her eyes, illuminating her pair of crimson pupils.

She stared blankly at everything before her, frozen in place, thinking she was in a dream.

"What? It's not ugly at all."

Under the bright sunlight, the nun-like older sister knelt down and gave her a gentle smile.

Her world became colorful and vibrant once again.

Hina Shiraishi's eyes blurred with tears.

Perhaps it's because this scene is too sacred and beautiful.

"elder sister......"

Tears streamed down her face like pearls from a broken string.

Her nose stung with tears, and she couldn't help but bury her face in the nun's arms.

She didn't cry when she was insulted, she didn't cry when her mother poured lead into her body, and she didn't cry when the police bullied her.

But at that moment, she burst into tears.

Once the facade of strength is removed, all that remains is a ten-year-old girl, scarred and broken.

The eyes that had finally regained their sight were now blurred with tears.

But it doesn't matter.

Because she had etched the scene she saw when she opened her eyes into her heart forever.

Because she knew that a brighter future awaited her.

Chapter Thirteen: Tendo Kisara's Vigilance

A week passed quickly.

Early in the morning, a deliveryman on a bicycle was delivering mail in an old neighborhood on the outskirts of the city.

Arriving at a church that seemed out of place in the neighborhood, the deliveryman stopped his bicycle and took out a letter from his cloth bag.

After confirming the address of the letter and the two words "This Law" crookedly carved in front of the church door, he left the envelope at the door.

After knocking on the door, he walked away.

Soon, the church door opened, and a small head peeked out.

That was none other than Shiraishi Hina.

Compared to her drab and malnourished appearance a week ago, she is now much cleaner and looks more energetic.

However, her bright red eyes were still striking, which was why she hadn't really wanted to appear in front of the deliveryman.

The cursed child needs to learn to control the gastrulatory factor in his body and suppress it into an inactive state in order to hide his red eyes.

Although Hina Shiraishi has been learning how to control gastrulation factor from Enju Aihara recently, it is still quite difficult for her to master it in just one week.

"finally reached."

Holding the letter in her hand, although she couldn't quite understand the words on it, Shiraishi Hina, who had known the news in advance, still knew what was inside.

Police officer identification.

More accurately, it was this article about Erya and her police identification.

A week ago, Nibekor was preparing to take her to get her police officer's ID.

However, due to an unexpected encounter with Hina Shiraishi on the road, Nia Honjo not only saved her but also healed her eyes and even took her home.
