chapter 2

After An Tian slept in his room all night, Lucia woke up with a hundred spirits.

After breakfast, Anna said she was going to the nearby Goddess Yemendro Shrine to pray.

"There are also three streets away from the nearest shrine. I'll take you there after dinner." Athos explained, "There are more merchants living here, so the nearest shrine is Kurata's shrine."

"Okay." After Anna finished speaking, she glanced at Lucia, who was trying to reduce her sense of existence, "Lucia, you and I go to the temple."

"Forgive me." Lucia lay miserably on the table, "I don't want to go."

"No, do you want to go out again?" Anna said solemnly, "It's our first day here, don't run around."

"I won't!" Lucia felt too wronged, "I'm so good!"

She is not stupid. After knowing her future, she will definitely not run around, lest she be targeted by the cult.

"I don't believe it." Anna looked at Lucia seriously and began to count her naughty deeds.

Climbing trees and walls is a trivial matter;

Sneak out at night when adults are asleep, and dig other people's sweet potatoes with friends;

When the adults were hunting, they went to the forest to dig traps, but they caught a forest wolf, which startled everyone.

Athos was dumbfounded.

He couldn't help but glance at his own sister.

What a pitiful little girl, blue eyes with tears of grievance, slender eyebrows twisted together, pink lips pressed tightly, as if to suppress her crying.

——No matter how you look at it, this is a gentle and lovely little girl, completely irrelevant to the troublemaker in Anna's mouth.

"Mummy, no." Lucia weakly and pitifully denied, "People don't do that."

"Heh." Anna smiled coldly, "Anyway, you must pray with me today."

Lucia looked at Ram aggrieved and helpless, and Ram said he couldn't help.

"Brother." Lucia's big blue eyes looked at Athos, and said pitifully, "You also persuade Mummy."

"Uh...?" Athos looked at Anna.

"Eat!" Anna announced domineeringly.

Athos fell silent for a moment.

It seems that he must follow him to the temple.

Lucia was in great pain.

She really really really didn't like going to the temple with Anna.

Anna is a devout believer, she worships the goddess Yemendro, so she spends more than two hours a week in prayer.

Every time she went to pray, she had to bring Lucia with her.

When he first crossed over, Lucia didn't believe there was a god in the world at all, so he hated praying, thinking it was pure superstition and a waste of time.

Now that she realizes that she has traveled to the novel "The Difficulties of Women", Lucia knows that there are gods in this world.

...but even if she believes that there is a god in this world, she still doesn't like to pray!

Even if 10,000 and 10,000 people were unwilling, Lucia, who was only eight years old, couldn't screw Anna, and was taken to the temple of the goddess Yemendro.

The church is not big, and three or four people have already sat there. Anna sat gently at the end of the church, folded her hands and prayed: "Ms. Yemendro, the great mother, the goddess of harvest, the guardian of nature, the goddess of autumn, you Faithful believer Anna prays to you..."

Lucia sat upright for a while, then couldn't help but move back, leaned back on the chair, and relaxed her back.

Five minutes later, she screwed her ass back to the front.

After another five minutes, Lucia's empty eyes froze in front of him, where is the symbol of Yemendro's golden ears of wheat.

No, not anymore.

I can't take it anymore.

Lucia felt that there was a thorn on her butt, she twisted it for a long time, and couldn't help but quietly jumped off the chair, ready to slip away.

Anna, who was praying devoutly, opened her eyes and glared at Lucia fiercely while praying.

"I'm just playing in the church." Lucia defended in a low voice.

Anna closed her eyes and continued to pray.

Lucia breathed a sigh of relief and quickly slipped away.

She couldn't understand someone like Anna who believed in gods. Even if there were gods in this world, when she encountered difficulties, she was the one who could solve the problem.

So Lucia only believed in her own abilities.

But Lucia couldn't convince Anna, just like Anna couldn't convince herself.

At home, Anna is a believer of the goddess Yemendro, and Ram is a carpenter and also believes in Duma, the god of craftsmen.

Only Lucia was a staunch materialist fighter.

"Alas." Lucia sighed.

"Why are you sighing?" A low male voice suddenly came from the room next to him.

Lucia jumped up in shock, turned her head and saw that there was a very familiar door beside her.

"Yes, who is it?!" Lucia stared at the door like a cat.

A deep laughter came from the door: "Why, didn't you just tell me you were coming to Serancha three days ago when you came to the temple for the last time? That made me forget?"

This familiar voice and this matter, Lucia suddenly remembered.

"Mi, Mistry!" Lucia was shocked, "Why are you here?!"

"Can't I be here?" The voice inside the door, Mistry asked curiously, "Why?"

"This, this is too far from Arantar! And getting on the plane from Arantaar... Dragon's, it's only our family!"

The one who spoke in the confessional room was Lucia's good friend in his hometown.

Because she followed Anna to pray at the temple of Ms. Yemendro since she was a child, after Lucia was honest once or twice, she ran around while Anna was praying.

Just when Lucia was talking to herself "believing in God is useless", Mistry struck up a conversation with her.

The two quickly developed a friendship and chatted across the door of the confessional as Anna prayed.

When he left his hometown, Lucia still felt a pity, and went to say goodbye to his little friend. Unexpectedly, after only three days, he would meet again in Serancha.

Mistry laughed happily again, and he hinted, "Maybe I came in a different way?"

"...The hearse drifted?" Lucia asked hesitantly.

"Of course not, it's time to tell you about it," Mistry said lightly. "Actually, I'm a god."

"???" Lucia was shocked.

"Why are you so surprised?" Mistry asked in the confessional room. "Isn't it enough to prove my identity so quickly from Arantar to Serancha without taking a pterosaur?"

"Mage can do it too?" Lucia said.

"Mage, I need to set up teleportation arrays in two places in advance to teleport spells. Have you seen teleportation arrays in your hometown?" Mistry asked patiently across the door.

"Then, that warrior can also? The kind that has good endurance and runs fast."

Mistry was silent for a moment: "... Lucia, is it difficult to believe that I am a god?"

"But, when we were chatting in the past, I told you that it is better to rely on yourself than to ask God. Do you agree?" Lucia said loudly, "How can you be a god!"

"There is nothing wrong with this sentence, of course I agree with it." Mistry explained Lucia's question, "After all, there are many believers who pray every day, and it is too troublesome to respond to each one, so a fair god generally chooses not to use all of them. respond."

"..." This god is too real, right?

"But I'm different," Mistry whispered bewitchingly. "Be my follower, and I'll answer your every prayer."

Mistry just said that there are too many believers who can't respond, so this is an empty check.

Is this a pheasant god?

"Hmph, I'm a staunch materialist!" Lucia vowed, "I won't believe in God!"

Is there any benefit to believing in God? Give money!

No, how can a staunch materialist waste precious time!

"You already know there are gods, are you still a materialist?" Mistry asked curiously, "Why?"

"Knowing that there is no conflict between gods and materialists!" Lucia used the materialism characteristic of the Dragon Kingdom to defend herself, "God is just a high-level species to me!"

"Well..." Misters pondered, "I see, is that what you think?"

"Yes!" Lucia was very determined.

After a moment of silence in the confessional room, Mistry pondered: "It seems that I need to show you some miracles."

"Oh." Lucia replied lukewarmly, "What miracle?"

"That's it, try to pray to me and ask for my favor," Mistry suggested.

"How do you pray?" Lucia asked.

Although she followed Anna to pray at the temple of Ms. Yemendro, Anna always prayed normally and never asked for a miracle.

Even if she prayed, Lucia, who ran away every time, didn't know.

"...Just say it casually, and then ask me to perform a miracle on you."

Lucia looked at Mistry's unskilled appearance, and felt more and more that this was a pheasant god, so she also prayed: "Great Mistry, my friend God, please perform miracles for me. Bar!"

"...What kind of prayer is this." Mistry whispered dissatisfiedly, a small white light appeared in front of Lucia, and a small gold coin popped out of it.

"!!!" Lucia opened her eyes wide and looked at a gold coin in front of her.

"Well, do you believe I am a god?" Mistry said.

"I believe it, I believe it!" Lucia excitedly reached for the gold coins in the air.

"Well." Mistry was satisfied that the gold coins in the air fell into Lucia's hands, "So, are you willing to be my believer?"

After receiving the gold coins, Lucia felt that her heart had been purified. Although she was still a 100% materialist in her heart, she was willing to take out 100% of her materialistic beliefs and regard Mistry as her boss.

It is great to believe in God!

If you believe in God, you will have money to spend! As long as she sends money every day, she can recharge and renew her status as a believer every day!

"I was wrong! I am your firm believer!" Lucia swallowed his previous words in a second, "From today onwards, I am your faithful believer, Mr. Mistry! Please put Tell me your priesthood and honorific title! I'll be sure to pray for you (after your renewal)!"

"I haven't made up my mind yet." Mistry said honestly, "You are my first believer."

Seems to be really a pheasant god.

Lucia thought.

"Then what am I doing for you, boss?" Lucia quickly entered the role of chief disciple.

"I don't have any thoughts for now." Mysters said, "Lucia, your mother has finished praying, go back."

"Oh, then I'll come to you next time!" Lucia said with professional ethics while holding the gold coin.

"You don't have to come here, I can hear your prayers." Before Mistry finished speaking, he saw the little girl running away like a wind. He sighed and pulled away.
