Chapter 265 You Cannot Escape from the Saintess (5)
At first, I was too shocked to say anything, but when I thought about it, her possessing Evil Eyes was natural Right, she was possessed by a powerful curse that no advance ability could cure It wouldn’tlike Evil Eyes
“Is it really you, Hero-nim?”
“I told youshi+n”
“You really are Hero-nim…!”
“I see not listening to other people’s words hasn’t changed”
Even though this was the first time she spoke since she was born, the way she naturally ue was a bit scary She was really like a princess freed from a curse, the kind told in fairy tales
She undoubtedly possessed Evil Eyes since the day she was born Evil Eyes was a terrifying authority that placed an immense burden on one’s body Back then, she should have had little to no mana in her body Her body must have known that only death awaited her if she opened her eyes
That’s why she couldn’t open her eyes Because her sight wasn’t enough, her hearing and voice had also been taken away It wasn’t a curse, but her desperate attempt to lessen the burden on her body Of course, she never realized it
I thought about explaining it, but I decided against it I felt it would only encourage her self-aggrandizing way of thinking
For some reason, however, Ciara was quiet She could now see and speak No matter how quiet she was before, it wouldn’t be an overreaction for her to blabber on excitedly Plus, if it was Ciara who always put an exclamation mark at the end of her sentence…
“Ciara?”
“Yes! Yes!”
No, I rong She had never seen the world with her own eyes Itout
Suddenly, Ciara, as looking at an to cry I had expected her to become emotional, but it was still a surprise as tears weren’t so I ever associated her with
“Why are you crying? I told you I could fix it”
“N-No It’s nothing, Hero-nim…! It, it’s just…!”
Ciara didn’t wipe her tears and only looked up at me She then murmured quietly
“Even… Even ht…”
“… That’s good to hear”
There was no way that the world she drew in her heart was the same as the world she saith her own eyes Now, she could see and judge everything herself Even if it wasn’t to nize the value of others
Feeling sympathy for Ciara for the first time, I reached out and stroked her hair She didn’t overreact and si this way… I felt a headache knowing that this wouldn’t be the case
Ciara regained her light and voice In addition, her eyes were Evil Eyes froht was si
Her eyes could see the future It was a simple ability, yet the consequences were i her eyes, her ability came to surpass what it was before by far If she put in an effort and controlled her eyes, there really h she carried dangerous thoughts, as long as I was next to her, she would follow otten an irreplaceable ally
However, Ciara’s situation wasn’t only good As I said before, the reason she couldn’t speak and had her eyes closed was that her body couldn’t withstand her Evil Eyes That was still the case now, even as an ability user
Ema, the Elixir amplified the mana in her body and forced her body to its normal state When the Elixir’s effect ran out, her body would be burdened once again, perhaps even more than before It was my mistake, as I had never considered the possibility of her possessing Evil Eyes But since she opened her eyes, it was necessary to train her body, mind, and mana Immediately
Hwaya answeredexpression
“Hateful…”
“Please, Hwaya I’ll do whatever you want”
“You know full well I can’t refuse you… Huu, it’s for Revival too, so fine I’ll endure it”
“Thank you so much”
Ciara bowed to Hwaya She had clearly gotten cal her eyes Hwaya snorted as she retorted
“First, let’s work on controlling the led up inside”
“It’s because she can’t control it consciously Her potential shouldn’t be bad… She’s the distributor of all abilities after all”
“I hope so, shi+n I’ive us some space Four days”
“Four days!?”
What is she planning on doing to this child!? Don’t telleyes
“What? I’m the first person on Earth to systematically train in mana Since I accepted her as a disciple, I can’t be soft even if she’s a kid I need four days, so leave”
With that, Hwaya sent e
[I can roughly solve what you’re worried about in that timeframe]
“… You’re really an a woman”
“Yeah, I know”
Hwaya nodded as if it was the most obvious truth Then, she waved her hands without even looking at me I smiled and left as she wanted
“Good luck, Ciara I’ll take care of the rest”
“Yes, Hero-nim I’ll do my best! For Hero-nim!”
“No, do it for yourself, not me”
Just like that, the witch accepted the saintess as a disciple at the request of the hero What a mess
After leaving Ciara to Hwaya, I went to find Walker As I’d already talked to Hwaya and a few others, I didn’t need to hesitate to do what I planned
“What’s up, Kang shi+n? Your face is more unpleasant than usual”
“Should I not?”
I ed Walker beforehand, but it seeeon anyway With what happened last tieons and the deeon with deterood When I visited hi outside
It was noon He would have been guarding Yua if it was the past Although not ed I arette and spoke curtly
“If you’re going to visit me, tell me beforehand”
“I did”
“Three or four hours before”
“… Do you have another guest?”
“… No”
Walker dodged aze For a moment, he eyes looked at the second-floorThe curtains were tightly shut as if to hide as inside Well, it didn’t matter I told him what I came for
“You don’t really need the Soul Contract anymore”
