125 A REWARD PART 13 (1/2)

”Don't you find it unfair that God created you to obey Him like a slave?” Legion tried to instill some uncertainty in her mind so that she would mistrust God.

”Hah, if you were the only thing alive in an empty space for eternity, what would you do? Certainly, if we live alone in a room for decades, we will become mental patients. God was lonely and He wanted companions with whom he could spend some time with. And He had the power to do so. So tell me why would I be upset when He created me and let me live in such a wonderful universe? I should be thanking Him instead, don't I?”

[A/N: I would like my beloved Readers not to take this religiously. It's a request. It's not about religion but Xue Lin's personal fight against evil.]

Yes, Xue Lin has a rude personality. She doesn't care about those who are around her but have nothing to do with her. She doesn't even feel upset when her relative who isn't close to her, dies.

She thinks – we must care for the people when they are alive because that's when the true affection for them can be shown. If we don't care for them when they are alive, and after their death, if we cry on their corpse, it only means that we want to lower our guilt because we are selfish – Xue Lin is practical in that sense it almost makes people think that she is a cold-hearted person.

However, she really appreciates those who help her, guide her, show her the right path and care for her. She doesn't care if they are related to her by blood or not. She can give her life for them and she is always grateful to them even if they do a small favor to her. She will remember their goodwill for the rest of her life.

Legion asked, ”Even if God abandoned you twice?”

Xue Lin firmly said, ”God never abandons anyone. He gave us choices. We can either choose the right path or the wrong path. If we choose the right path and believe in Him, we may suffer now but we will eventually get eternal peace. And I will choose the right path even if I lose my mind.”

Xue Lin didn't change her mind even standing in front of the demon. Legion looked at her for a while and then lowered her body to the ground. Xue Lin's feet touched the ground and she sighed softly. Legion said, ”Stay here obediently. The ceremony will start soon. Your soul that has been tainted will be given to Satan.”

Xue Lin's face paled. She thought she had persuaded that demon but she failed. Since they wanted to kill her, there was no way she could change their minds no matter what she said.

After Legion and Balthazar left, Xue Lin tiptoed to the door and heard their footsteps going away. She slowly touched the doorknob and tried to twist it. With a 'click' sound, the door opened.

She almost laughed out in joy but quickly controlled herself. She still didn't know if someone was guarding the door outside the door. Though she didn't hear them talking, she has to be careful.

Slowly, millimeter by millimeter, Xue Lin opened the door and saw no one guarding the door. It was an empty simple living room. 'Are they overconfident or am I too lucky?' She thought.
