Finally, Selene made her way through the crowd and reached a mother and daughter. They were a typical pair of impoverished individuals, both with yellowed complexions and dry hair. Although their faces and clothes were clean, they could not hide their destitution.
The young mother, though fair-featured, had become so thin that her skin clung tightly to her bones. Her forehead was dark, and her cheeks were sunken, clearly having sacrificed her own nutrition for her daughter.
The little girl, despite having bright eyes, was pale-faced, occasionally coughing, indicating she had fallen ill, and they had no money to see a doctor.
As Selene approached the pair, the young mother suddenly knelt down with a thud, pressing her forehead heavily against the ground. "Selene Nun, please have mercy and save my daughter! She has been coughing for seven days, can't sleep at night, and can't even eat. She is only eight years old and has never done anything wrong; she shouldn't have to suffer like this!"
She pleaded desperately, tears streaming down her face, but Selene did not look at her at all.
Instead, she crouched down, disregarding the dirt on the ground that stained her immaculate white robe, her gentle, watery eyes warmly gazing into the little girl's eyes. She then softly asked, "Child, tell me, what is your dream?"
The little girl lifted her small face. Despite being extremely unhealthy, her features still shone with sweetness: "I want to become a great person so that everyone in the slum won't have to go hungry or get sick! Cough cough…"
A sharp itch surged from her lungs, and she immediately coughed several times, with faint traces of blood appearing at the corners of her mouth. Selene nodded gently at this answer, saying, "That's a very good dream. I wish you success."
With that, she embraced the frail girl, resting her forehead against the child's brow.
A soft white light radiated from her body and then flowed into the girl. Soon, color returned to the little girl's face, and while she gasped for breath, she no longer coughed.
Realizing that her daughter had been healed, the young mother broke down in tears, continually bowing her head to the ground. "Thank you, Miss Selene, thank you…"
Selene remained silent, still holding the girl in her arms, and then stood back up. Her robe remained clean, untouched by the dust beneath her.
The brilliant sunlight fell upon her, and in that moment, holding the child, she undoubtedly appeared as a savior in the eyes of many poor individuals in the slum.
Immediately, those waiting for porridge knelt down, their heads touching the ground, calling out the names of Selene and the Goddess of Life, tears welling in their eyes, some even unable to speak through their sobs.
Inside the porridge distribution site, the witches looked at this hypocritical scene and couldn't help but feel emotional. Having known Selene well, they realized that this witch, who delighted in playing with the fates of others, had set her sights on that pitiful little girl.
In the coming years, the girl would experience unimaginable ups and downs, her hope for life ignited by the "gifts" of "fate," only to be stripped of everything by the so-called "fate." She would be tortured and brought to the brink of collapse, ultimately falling into the depths of despair, transforming into an extreme anti-human terrorist bent on avenging society…
That grateful mother and daughter would never know that what seemed to be fate smiling upon them today was, in reality, the first step into the abyss, with no path of return.
…
The sun gradually moved westward, and as the last person receiving porridge left with their bowl, the day's porridge distribution finally came to an end. The witches returned inside the convent; however, after a full day of labor, they had no chance to rest.
Once the convent's large door was closed, Selene immediately gathered them all together and asked, "Where's Die? Does anyone know where she has gone?"
The witches looked at each other in confusion and then shook their heads in unison. "No, we don't know where she went; we haven't found any clues in these days."
After a pause, Cuivis spoke up, "Master, has something happened to Die?"
In the past, it was common for Die to return after a delay of more than ten days or even a month.
Now, with only a week having passed since Witch's Night, it seemed quite normal to them that Die had not returned to the convent.
"I have had a prophecy; Die is currently in the South Harbor District. But in the near future, she will encounter a significant crisis," Selene explained, her tone filled with deep worry. "The only ones who can help her are us, which is why I hurried back to inform you about this."
The formation of this convent was Selene's idea; she hoped that every witch could be like sisters, helping each other, getting through Witch's Night together, and enjoying a peaceful and happy life without lacking for human souls to consume and to torment for entertainment.
Thus, now that there was a prophecy indicating that something would happen to Die, she was eager to return.
"She's in the South Harbor District, yet still in danger. Does that mean…" Cuivis murmured, then her gaze shifted to Yuta, "Hmm?"
Instantly, Yuta's expression turned grim: "I…"
Selene's pale yellow pupils also turned toward her, calm in demeanor but revealing a hint of impending anger: "Yuta, tell me, what happened in the slum on the night of Witch's Night?"
This psychological pressure, along with the authority that Selene had accumulated over the years as a great witch, was highly effective against the other witches in the convent; no one dared to lie in front of Selene.
Unfortunately, Yuta had already found a new faith, and her will had become steadfast through her piety.
She hesitated, lowering her head as if making a confession, and said, "The Dark Intelligence Network and the Amazons clashed, and there were devils involved as well. Of course, I didn't know about these things at first; I just felt that my situation was being interfered with, and then I lost control and went mad."
"I'm sorry, Selene, and to all my sisters. This matter has blown up too much, and I bear an undeniable responsibility for it…"
Cuivis let out a cold laugh: "Well, now you know. Because of the mess you caused, the Black Staff Tower has sent people to investigate! Ha, the South Harbor District was peaceful before. Even if Die were to wander for a few more days, there wouldn't be any danger. But now, with one misstep, we all might have to accompany you to your grave!"
Yuta said nothing, her fists clenching slightly. The other witches dared not speak, and even Heidi, at this moment, did not dare to defend her.
Only Selene, who could hold Cuivis in check, would speak up at this time.
Fortunately, she did not place blame: "This matter is not entirely Yuta's fault; she has also been schemed against by others. Furthermore, even without this incident, the clash of the two major forces and the involvement of devils would inevitably cause chaos in the South Harbor District, ultimately drawing the attention of the Black Staff Tower."
"I am just happy that you all returned safely. However, Yuta, you must be fully prepared for the next Witch's Night!"
