"Then what about you? You are the master here. It shouldn't be difficult to find a place for a young girl, right?"

Cao Shurui asked suspiciously.

Elias' abilities, can't let her subordinates help arrange an accommodation, right?

"That's the problem."

After sighing, Rias' face showed an undisguised troubled color.

"As you know, she is a nun, and she is very religious."

After glancing at the blonde girl who met with Cao Shurui's gaze, Li Yasi frowned slightly, and then continued:

"Because of the existence of the system made by [God], if a devout believer prays wholeheartedly, he can cause harm to the [enemy] that the Lord has identified. Therefore, my people cannot live with her."

"Tsk. That's how it is..."

Without saying Lias, Cao Shurui really forgot about it.

It seems that just now Rias' frown was hurt.

"But, it has nothing to do with bringing her to my house, right? I don't believe that you will have no human co-workers in this town."

With that said, Cao Shurui touched the little head of Esther who was sitting beside him and staring blankly at Aisha.

Ever since Aisha started praying, her mood seemed to have fluctuated.

"It's not that I haven't thought about it, it's just—"

At this point, Lias paused.

The red-haired girl looked at Cao Shurui suspiciously, and then said:

"Aisha, ask me to send her to you."

"Aha?"

Cao Shurui didn't expect it to be the reason.

———————————————————————————————————————————————

It's rarely very quiet during dinner time.

When outsiders are around, Esther is generally reluctant to speak.

And Aisha, only after Rias taught her hand in hand, used the chopsticks bluntly and sipped the rice.

In this atmosphere, Cao Shurui and Lias glanced at each other and chose not to speak out in a tacit understanding.

"Then, thank you for the hospitality today."

After putting on her shoes in the hallway, Lias routinely thanked her.

"Aisha-chan will be boarding with you first. Let me say yes, she is a good boy, and is also my [Bishop] alternate, so please don't bully her?"

Seeing Lias's serious face, Cao Shurui laughed out loud with a "pouch".

"Really, I would be pretty good if I didn't charge her rent... Don't worry, I don't have any thoughts about the little girl."

With a wave of his hand, Cao Shurui sent Rias away, and then looked at Aisha, who was sitting on the sofa restrainedly again with a headache.

Because of sleepiness, the good boy Esther has changed back to the appearance of a small sword. So now she and Cao Shurui are left in the living room.

"Miss Aisha Aljet? Could you please tell me why you chose to live in my house?"

Cao Shurui really couldn't figure this out.

Are you a nun who believes in gods, actually lives in the house of a godslayer? Is this abandoning faith and intending to turn to the enemy? It's impossible. Judging from the effects of her prayers, her faith is very firm.

"Yesterday, you said that your power similar to the gods was usurped after killing the gods. Such you are undoubtedly the enemy of the Lord."

Carefully looking at Cao Shurui, Aisha hesitated for a while before condensing her eyes and speaking firmly.

"Well... it's okay to say that. If he wants to do evil to humans, then I will bury him. However, I don't think I will have this opportunity."

"Really. Even if you have committed the sin of killing God, you still think that the Lord is [good]."

Aisha seems to have misunderstood Cao Shurui's meaning.

She saw a faint gleam of bright green spiritual power in her eyes, then folded her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed.

As her lips moved lightly, a faint milky white light glowed on the surface of the black gold-rimmed nun's dress on her body.

That is proof that her beliefs have received systematic feedback to protect her and impose sanctions on the enemies of the Lord around her.

"The reason why I chose to stay with you is because I found the [good] in your heart. Although you killed Father Fried, I don't think it is an irreparable sin. However, it killed the gods. The sin is too great, and it is very likely to lead you, who holds the power, into the abyss. Therefore, I have decided. Even if I want to dedicate myself, I will influence you so that you can return to the Lord's embrace as soon as possible."

"what?"

Before Cao Shurui's astonishment was over, the piety on Aisha's face faded, her expression depressed.

"...But this is just my arrogant thought. I was abandoned by the Lord, and I am already unclean. Where is the qualification to influence others?"

"Abandoned by the Lord...?"

Hearing Aisha's whisper, Cao Shurui narrowed his eyes slightly.

"That's why you came to my house with that lost priest."

"Yeah. I was expelled by the church and walked on the street blankly. I was taken away by a fallen angel with black wings on his back."

As if recalling the scene at that time, the girl's eyes were misted.

"Father Fried is right. I, with the ability to heal the Lord's enemy, the devil, may really be a heresy. Otherwise, the Lord will not fail to give me a blessing."

Although it was a crying expression, the corners of her mouth tried to lift up.

——All this must be because of my lack of faith.

Forbearing her inner emotions, Aisha smiled at Cao Shurui.

Chapter 024

Cao Shurui could hear that Aisha's words were completely from the heart, and there was no intention to force herself.

"Even if you are abandoned by the Lord, will you still not give up praying?"

Looking at the fascinating Aisha in front of her, Cao Shurui suddenly felt the weight of faith in her.
