Elias smiled and nodded, "Of course I'm willing, but I hope it's not through the way of you sacrificing yourself."
"What?" Aleya frowned immediately, "You..."
She stared into Elias's eyes, his expression serious.
"You know all about it?" she asked.
Elias hadn't expected his guess to be right, but his expression remained unchanged, "As you absorb the power of faith, the divine side of you grows stronger, right?"
Aleya nodded slightly.
Elias continued, "But is that still you? When you become a true god, won't the original you be as good as dead?"
Aleya's eyes flickered with a moment of confusion, "Indeed, as my power increases, my emotions become colder, and I find it harder to control my other side..."
Watching her confused expression, Elias gently said, "As I said, the real you will die, but I don't want you to die, so let me save you once more."
"Save me again?"
"Yes, just like that time before."
