"...It's not easy to win the favor of elves without a contract, and for them to protect you through many difficulties."

Mu Nanfeng didn't find it strange; he just found it very interesting.

"Really? Then please tell them thank you for me." She said cheerfully. Just as she put down the watering can, the doorbell rang, and Mu Nanfeng ran to open the door.

As soon as she left, Sim lowered his head, looking deep in thought and very troubled.

Mu Nanfeng walked back with the pizza box in his hand.

"I couldn't find tofu today, so I ate a whole bunch of pizzas instead, Margherita flavor. I wonder if you like them?"

"...Margaret?"

Mu Nanfeng smiled and said, "I can't help it if you don't like it. This is my home, so of course I have to choose what I like first. I don't believe that just because someone is a guest I have to listen to them."

"Eat up, don't be shy."

Sim looked at Mu Nanfeng with a suspicious gaze, hesitated for a long time, and then imitated Mu Nanfeng's actions, putting the hot, thin-crust pizza with cheese shreds into his mouth. His suspicious gaze immediately lit up, and he buried his head in the food.

Mu Nanfeng finished eating one slice, wiped his hands clean with a wet wipe, and poured her a glass of soda.

The bubbling of the soda startled Sim.

"What kind of magic potion is this?"

Mu Nanfeng: ………………

The girl didn't touch the soda. After finishing three slices of pizza in one go, she knelt down properly, made a circle with her hands in front of her chest, and finally tapped her heart twice with her index finger.

"Thank you Inshujade, thank you for the food, thank you, kind lady."

Mu Nanfeng was a little surprised.

Kids these days get so deeply into the drama, they're so empathetic.

But as a school doctor, who is also a teacher, she couldn't bear to see a girl who was about the same age as her student being taken away by security guards and having the police called in the middle of the mall.

"My name is Mu Nanfeng." To show his sincerity and gain the other party's trust, Mu Nanfeng took out his faculty and staff ID card and handed it to him.

The girl didn't take it; she just frowned and looked at it.

“I am Sim, an apostle of Inshugard.”

Mu Nanfeng's face hardened, and his gentle tone turned serious.

"...I know that role-playing is very popular now, but I want to talk to you seriously now."

"You may have had a conflict with your family and ran away from home."

“I won’t force you to leave right away, but I need you to tell the truth.”

“If you don’t tell the truth, I can’t take in someone whose background is unclear.”

I initially went along with her because I wanted to build trust with her.

But that doesn't mean we can always accept her constant talk about other worlds.

Mu Nanfeng thought his tone was serious enough, but the girl's expression became even more serious.

“This is blasphemy against the Apostle Inshugard.”

“We never lie; that’s something only the Deville family does.”

Mu Nanfeng: "…………"

Seeing Sim's determined expression, Mu Nanfeng pursed her lips and didn't press him further. She took a sip of her soda and naturally changed her tone of voice.

"……Yeah?"

"Then, Miss Apostle, may I ask why you have come here?"

"Or rather, is there anything I can do to help you?"

Sim hesitated for a moment, glanced around the room again, and finally looked directly at Mu Nanfeng.

"I'm here to find someone."

"As for the reason... I'm not at liberty to tell you."

"We have signed a confidentiality agreement and this information must not be disclosed."

Mu Nanfeng raised an eyebrow.

"I was in the mall at the time, and I think I heard you say something about 'dealing with' the other party?"

"...Could it be a battle in another world, like some kind of witch seed candidate, seven candidates, who have to kill each other, and then the winner gets the witch seed, and then the witch seed will release the power of the whole world, containing all the world's desires and cruelty, and is an evil holy object that can fulfill the desires of the human heart?"

During her teenage years, Mu Nanfeng read many fantasy works.

Sim was dumbfounded, looking completely bewildered.

"You're so cruel! What kind of witch seed is this? Is this something from your world?"

"How could there be an evil sacred object that contains all the desires and cruelty of the world and can fulfill the desires of the human heart?"

"If such a thing exists, it must be eliminated immediately and not allowed to exist. Who doesn't know that human desires are insatiable greed?"

"...There can't be a story where someone carries the desires and darkness of the entire world, and ultimately saves the world all by themselves, can there?"

Mu Nanfeng was stunned.

She was just going along with what the other person was saying, but she didn't expect to be rebuffed.

Sim looked at Mu Nanfeng's expression and pushed up his glasses.

"I come from another world."

"It may be hard to believe, but I do come from another world."

“In our world, the power of nature is far more abundant than here. Different worlds have different rules and constraints. Before I came here, I was warned by the elders of my clan that this is the world inhabited by one of the ‘Rules Holders,’ and the rules and constraints here will be particularly numerous.” Sim said, lowering his head and muttering to himself.

"But I never expected it to be so restrictive."

"Even the oil lamp has stopped working; the rules of this world are exceptionally strong."

"Perhaps it was to seal away the world-destroying witch and prevent her power from leaking out and harming the world."

Mu Nanfeng glanced at his phone.

Should we call the police?

But Sim began to recount the whole story.

In the world of Sim, there is a witch who was born with extraordinary wisdom and could read the Book of Mora, which records magic and was left behind after the earliest divine revelation.

The first to be able to read the Book of Mora were the elves.

They have always been faithful believers in God.

Humans, well—they believe whatever they want, only believing what benefits them.

Humans did not immediately believe in gods. The world's natural magic was initially passed down from gods to elves, and then from elves to humans. People who could use magic were commonly called witches or magicians.

The elves only imparted a portion of their magic to humans, keeping some for themselves, and protected and fragmented their language.

The witch, however, bypassed the level of the elves and could directly read the scrolls that the gods had given to the elves.

She mastered the most primal magic, which was exceptionally powerful, and she was revered as the "Primordial Witch".

Under the influence of the Primordial Witch, the world transcended the dark age of war and chaos, and the three great nations shook hands and made peace, ushering in a glorious era for the continent.

"So you're here to find the Primordial Witch?" Mu Nanfeng asked seriously.

That's about it; the story ends here.

To everyone's surprise, Sim refuted him with eloquent arguments.

"Nobody wants to see her again!"

Mu Nanfeng: …………?

"She fell in love with a rule-maker from another world and pursued him relentlessly, threatening to bury the entire continent to force him to submit to her—" Sim said, his face showing disgust.

"This may seem romantic and crazy to her, but to us, it's the worst luck imaginable. Does she want the whole continent to die for her? All the talent she was born with has been wasted. If only her talent had been given to the Ori family, they could have served the country and its people."

"So she chased after him and left, and we all celebrated with joy! History textbooks say this was the second glorious era!!"

Upon hearing this twist, Mu Nanfeng hesitated for a moment before putting down her phone.

Let's postpone calling the police.

This story is quite interesting; I want to hear more.

"So who are you looking for?"

"I'm here to find her daughter."

Sim's expression was cold.

"Those who receive magical power, regardless of gender, will find it difficult to have children."

"The various families then prayed to the gods, asking them to grant them the opportunity to continue their lineage. The God of Creation answered their prayers and bestowed upon them the Flower of Life and the Grass of Life. Eating the flower would result in the birth of a girl, and eating the grass would result in the birth of a boy. However, such gifts were extremely rare, and each family followed the rules, taking turns to give birth to an heir to ensure their continued prosperity."

"But she was unreasonable and pulled up an immature grass first, just for her own sake."

"Then they plucked another flower that was just ripe."

"No one can stop her; they can only watch her come and go."

Sim covered his face with his hands as he spoke, his voice trembling with sobs and filled with sorrow.

"What she pulled out was supposed to be my sister!"

"I waited 180 years, and the little sister I longed for was taken away by her!! When we met again, she was someone else's little sister, a strange girl who looked at me with unfamiliar eyes, and she even looked exactly like that annoying primordial witch—"

Mu Nanfeng was speechless.

I wanted to call the police, but I also felt sorry for her because she was being so sincere.

Could there really be a witch from another world hiding here?

Mu Nanfeng thought, "Oh no, my thinking has been assimilated too."
