Of course, what this girl who called herself Abby could never have imagined was that the reason she was in this situation was actually caused by the black-haired boy in front of her.

An embarrassed Sōyu scratched his head. He was technically responsible for this, but surely the Church of Truth didn't just have two people to do things? Couldn't they arrange for someone else to look after the girl?

After all, their deity resides within her body.

But this

It was obvious that Saya had misunderstood. It was precisely because the girl's identity was so important that Taiga Tachikawa did not want others to know too much about her. In any case, with the existence of the Eastern Flame, ensuring her safety was not a problem.

But no one knew that in one afternoon, they would both be taken down in one fell swoop by this guy, Saya.

Chapter 618 Everything Will Be Alright

The blonde girl didn't speak, but judging from her extremely dejected expression, Sayu could easily guess her answer.

Judging from what she just said, it's clear that she has been adopted by Taiga Tachikawa for a long time and doesn't know anything about the messy things at the Shingon Church. What she doesn't know is that the priest grandfather she mentioned will never come back.

For a moment, the atmosphere between Zuoyou and the girl was a little awkward, until a gurgling sound broke the silence.

Seeing the girl's embarrassed gesture of covering her stomach, and recalling her earlier actions of constantly looking at the items in the supermarket, Sōyū quickly understood her current predicament.

This is a consequence he caused himself, so he definitely has to take responsibility.

"Um, if you're hungry, how about I treat you to something to eat?"

Looking at the pitiful girl, who resembled an abandoned kitten, and disregarding the outer god behind her, Saku realized she was indeed a cute and polite child.

Even so, Saya felt that if it were anyone else, they would probably make the same decision to offer her something to eat.

"How could I trouble you again, big brother? I'm fine. Grandpa Priest must have gone off on business; he'll definitely come back for me." She left in front of whl.

It wasn't that she didn't want to call the police, but rather that Taiga Tachikawa had warned her long ago that, due to his special status, he absolutely could not get too close to the police.

The girl's nature was inherently very obedient, so naturally she would not go against his wishes in such a matter.

But precisely because of this, she is now in a situation where she is completely at a loss.

She doesn't have many friends to begin with, and her so-called family, Taiga Tachikawa, is more like a grandfather in name only. He never really cares about her affairs, and the way he looks at her always seems off.

Now, with even the Great River and Tachikawa nowhere to be seen, the girl felt as if she had been abandoned by the entire world.

Even so, she still had no intention of causing trouble for Saiyu. In her view, Saiyu was just a kind stranger, and his concern for her was purely because of his kind heart.

The kinder the person is, the less she wants to cause him trouble. Although she doesn't know why, Abby has a premonition that if she accepts Saya's kindness, it might cause him a lot of trouble.

Looking at the extremely sensible blonde girl in front of him, Saku paused for a moment before taking a step forward without hesitation and placing his hand on her long blonde hair.

The more obedient the girl in front of him was, the more distressed he felt for her. Especially when he thought that she had lost her last refuge because of him, he felt even more sorry for her.

It's impossible for her to wander the streets alone like this now. Even putting aside Saya's personal thoughts, the consequences would be unimaginable if she encountered danger.

Saya had considered taking her in for a while, but then he thought, putting aside the two jealous girls at home, if she were to be provoked, she would be a huge bomb. Apart from Saya himself, everyone else would probably be in danger.

But if he were to hand her over to the brewery, Sawa worried that those who wanted to study her might cause some trouble.

You know, when he handed over the Eastern Flame that afternoon, the researchers from the distillery practically rushed up and kissed him, and even offered themselves to him. wlh

Researchers are all crazy; you can never trust their bottom line.

Saya was well aware of this, but this made the question of how to deal with the girl in front of him a very important problem.

However, these are things to be dealt with later. What Zuoyou is doing now is to pull the somewhat bewildered girl straight into a dessert shop and forcibly press her down onto a small table.

"Whether you want to thank me or refuse me, you need to eat your fill first so you can have the energy to continue, right? If you really feel bad, you can make up for it with something else afterward. Consider these as a loan to you."

He raised one hand to stop the girl from refusing, then greeted the waiter and casually ordered some filling and girly food before smiling at the girl who seemed extremely reserved because he had forcibly dragged her in.

If I didn't say that, I think she would have fainted from hunger today and probably wouldn't have eaten the food I ordered.

After listening to what Saya said, the blonde girl quieted down and sat obediently in her seat, her head lowered. As if she had been holding it in for a long time, she finally spoke to Saya in an extremely soft voice.

"Thanks.

When Sōyū heard her words, he laughed. Her saying that meant she probably wouldn't refuse his kindness anymore.

"No need to thank me, it's already been said that I lent it to you first, and then..."

"Once you become successful, you'll have to pay me back."

Saya, who had been troubled ever since escaping from home, finally regained some of his previous composure. Arms crossed, he looked at the girl before him and realized that helping her was indeed the right thing to do.

"Yes, my name is Abigail. I will remember your kindness. So, big brother, what is your name?"

The girl, who had the name Saya had guessed, nodded weakly and looked at Saya with grateful eyes, asking him a question.

"Sayoo, you're just an ordinary high school student who's always willing to help others. You've already called me 'big brother,' how could I possibly turn a blind eye to what's going on with you? You agree, right?"

Sōyū smiled and ruffled the girl's hair again.

Fortunately, this time, he wasn't misunderstood as an attacker by her overprotective father.

Chapter 619 Idiots are Contagious

It was clear that the girl named Abigail was truly starving.

She must be at the age where she's growing, and given how long she's been wandering around outside, those people from the True Word Church might be considered dutiful and responsible believers, but they certainly wouldn't be considered good parents.

Look how hungry the children have become.

Watching Abina devour her food, which could only be described as wolfing it down, Sasuke simply looked at her with a kind gaze. Her appearance involuntarily reminded Sasuke of his adopted younger sister, and also of when he first met Ai, she was just like that.

They were all around the same age, and both looked pitiful and adorable.

He poured her a glass of water, gently patted Abi's back to slow her down, and then softly comforted her.

"Eat slowly, there's more when you finish."

As he said this, Sōyū took his phone out of his backpack. In his memory, apart from his own home, there was only one other person who could take in this girl.

After all, a god resides within Abi's body, and even contact with an ordinary person could pose a great danger. The Sawa family itself is a hotbed of conflict, so naturally, he could not bring this little bomb back with him.

But Saya was even more worried about handing her over to the police or the brewery. What if some malicious person wanted to harm the girl? Children this age are very easy to fool.

However, Sawa felt that Shiki might not have the talent to raise children at all. Secondly, while Hell was a decent place for retirement, raising children was out of the question, especially since the Old Hell was a desolate place with hardly any living or even dead people.

It would be too much of a torment for a child to grow up in such an environment.

As for the Saya family, not to mention that these two heads of the Outer God family seem to have a natural dislike for each other, just considering Chiya's personality, sending Abi there would be no different from sending a lamb to the slaughter.

So after thinking it over, all that was left for Saga was Aqua and Tamamo-no-Mae.

These two are both god-level guys, even if one is using an alt account and the other is a fake. Dealing with Abby's parents shouldn't be too difficult.

Moreover, both of them had a good relationship with Saya and even owed him a lot of favors. It was only right and proper for them to help him out.

After thinking about it for a moment, Sōyū finally decided to dial the number of the golden-haired fox.

Ultimately, he still didn't trust Aqua's intelligence. Even in terms of strength, her side was definitely more reliable than Tamamo-no-Mae's. However, Saya was still worried that if he handed this girl over to her, given that guy's personality, he would eventually raise a mentally challenged person of the same level.

The most frightening thing about intellectual disability is that it is contagious.

If you spend too much time with idiots, it's only a matter of time before you become an idiot yourself.

Zuoyou could hardly imagine what it would be like if the daughter of a fully-fledged, omnipotent god became an idiot, but that was definitely something he didn't want to see.

"Moshi moshi~ Press 1 for blessings, 2 for prayers, 3 for fortune telling, and 4 for curses. If you want to bother this Inari God, please remove this number from your call list."

Tamamo-no-Mae's sweet voice, with an irresistible allure that even she herself couldn't resist, rang out from the phone. Saku was both amused and exasperated by her playful antics at this moment.

It has to be said that this fox has a really good attitude. Logically speaking, since the world is now being targeted by that demon god from another world, she should be the one who is most anxious and in the most danger. But judging from her current appearance, she obviously doesn't take these things to heart.

"I'm not kidding you, there really is something I need to trouble you with. If you have time, could you come over? I can also come to you."

Saya chuckled and shook his head before speaking to Tamamo-no-Mae with a more serious tone.

"Oh, someone as almost omnipotent as you actually needs my help? Let me make it clear first, I don't handle family conflicts. Even a wise judge has trouble settling family disputes. I'm just a..."

Tamamo-no-Mae keenly sensed a hint of trouble approaching. Given Saya's personality, if he couldn't handle something himself and needed her help, it definitely wouldn't be something related to battle. If he couldn't handle that kind of thing himself, he shouldn't drag her into it.

Sawa doesn't seem like such a stupid guy.

Putting all that aside, there are only a few things that would make Saya personally call and ask him for a favor.

"No, it's just that I have someone here who needs your help. It shouldn't be too much of a hassle for you."

Upon hearing that Sōyu seemed to have mentioned something about her, the blonde girl, who was still enjoying her meal, stopped eating and looked at the boy in front of her with some curiosity. He wasn't much older than her.

Saya gestured for her to continue, reassuring her, before continuing to explain to Tamamo-no-Mae.

It was an accident.

The child involved in some troublesome matters, I assure you she is absolutely well-behaved, the kind you definitely won't dislike.

There was no deception in his words. Abby was a very well-behaved and lovely girl, and it's unlikely that anyone would dislike an obedient and sensible girl.

However, Saya only said that she is very obedient, but if her parents are possessed by spirits, then she definitely won't be a good child.

"I don't think things are as simple as you say. Forget it, it's hard to explain over the phone. I'd better come over myself. I wouldn't dare trouble you, Uncle Zuoyou, to come to my door in person."

Tamamo-no-Mae's voice revealed a hint of doubt, but she did not refuse Saya outright. She quickly hung up the phone without even asking where Saya was.

He's practically a guardian deity to the locals, so as long as Sayato is still in Tokyo, finding him shouldn't be too difficult for her.

Chapter 620 Does Not Exist

Handing Abigail over to Tamamo-no-Mae was even simpler than Saya had imagined. This golden-haired fox, Saya, even wondered if she was being overly maternal. Just as Saya was pondering whether to feed Abigail something delicious, Tamamo-no-Mae appeared before him. She then picked Abigail up, cradling her in her arms and scrutinizing her little face like a doll.

Before Sawa could even say anything, she looked as if she had already become Abi's godmother, her expression overflowing with delight.

"The child you mentioned who needs my care, it can't be her, can it? Such a cute little one, and you don't keep her at home? Don't you often bring people home? Like a queen of ten thousand women."

It wasn't until Abi found her overly enthusiastic behavior somewhat unbearable that Tamamo-no-Mae, who seemed to appear out of nowhere, noticed Saya's presence. After putting the girl down, she looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked.

Given Saya's personality, he could have easily handled this himself. Although he had never taken Tamamo-no-Mae to his home, Tamamo-no-Mae was well aware that he owned a large mansion and had many cute girls living there.

"It's not going to work out right now, it's a special situation."

Speaking of his family's messy affairs, Saya's head started to ache. Even though Abi is only so old, when the rest of the family gets jealous, they don't care about such things.

Just thinking about how he had promised Ujo Kirie that he would also move in, made Saya feel numb. If another little bomb were to come along, he felt like he was going to lose his life.

"Hehe, so it's still an emotional issue, right? Well then, considering how adorable this child is, I'll reluctantly agree to take care of her for a while."
