Vindicta's eyes widened the moment she heard her.

'Who is that?' she asked herself. And when she saw her, she thought, 'A human? How could a human get here? And her eyes… why don't I feel an inch of fear in it? Urgh.'

Deep inside, she felt annoyed. How dare a human ignore her presence?

"My, my. How brave," Vindicta replied. "Let's see where your bravery could get you. And let us all witness if your God will really save you. Because if He really wanted to, you wouldn't even be in this situation right now. You're all too naïve. Can't you see? The Supreme has abandoned you. Look around you. What do you see?"

Her eyes burned towards her, glaring with much hatred.

But Rania remained firm. Her eyes, unflinching, stared back at her, much to her annoyance.
