Capítulo 240: PERSUATION

"…You will be safe with us. With our protection, you can do whatever you want. That's why I'm telling you to come back. What do you want to choose?"

Veronica smiled at his words. "I understand that my safety is your utmost concern and I'm happy to know that. However, if I act like a scaredy-cat, the bad guys will have the upper hand. I cannot show my weakness.

"I have a duty to the people of Goddess Juvena. The Goddess sent me for that purpose. I'm sure She will protect me. If I, as Her blessed child, cannot show a little faith, how can other people have faith in Her?"

The Head Priest let out a deep breath. "You are right. Faith is what we need if we want the Goddess's strength."

He paused before adding, "When we found out the remarkable job you did in the desert, we were so proud of you. We wished to welcome you grandly. Who knew you would choose this path? Are you sure you want to walk down a road that has no future?"
