Faraway Survivor - Chapter 353
Farah’s POV
We fell asleep together in the wood last night. When Ahma and I came back to Ahma’s house, her mother used that topic to tease us.
-Hohoho! What did you guys do last night? (Ahma’s Mother)
-Mom! We didn’t do anything! (Ahma)
Ahma’s father stands on the side and asks his wife.
-What could two girls do together, honey? (Ahma’s Father)
Ahma’s mother blocks her mouth and laughs.
-Fufufu! You should ask your daughter~ (Ahma’s Mother)
-Mom! We didn’t do anything at all! (Ahma)
Ahma once again tries to push her mother back into the room.
-Not again, Ahma! (Ahma’s Mother)
Since Ahma had turned back from her adult form, it’s pretty hard work to push her mother away.
-Master! (Hana)
Suddenly, a familiar voice calls out to me from outside.
-Hana!? (Farah)
Hana is standing outside of the house.
-Ohh… (Ahma)
Ahma, who finished getting rid of her mother, also noticed Hana’s presence. Hana comes inside the house and greets Ahma and her father with courtesy.
-Greeting the village chief and her daughter. It’s my pleasure to meet the two of you. (Hana)
Ahma’s father scratches his head and asks Hana back.
-I’m sorry for being rude. But, you are…? (Ahma’s Father)
-I’m sorry for my late introduction. I’m the maid who serves master Farah. (Hana)
-Huh! (Ahma’s Father)
Ahma’s father turns his attention to me.
-Eh! So you are a noble, little girl? (Ahma’s Father)
I shake my head and deny it.
-It’s a long story, father. You shouldn’t pay too much attention to it. (Ahma)
Ahma stares at Hana and asks her.
-So, you are here to get her back, right? (Ahma)
Hana puts her hand on the chest and answers politely.
-That’s right. I believe it’s time to pick my master’s up since the master’s has missed many classes at the school. (Hana)
Right, I almost forget about the existence of the school! Will I get punished for skipping many classes?
-I believe you are also on leave like my master, miss Ahma. Since the current incident has ended, you could come back to school soon. (Hana)
-Right…You could take her back then. (Ahma)
Ahma turns to me and pats my head.
-See you later, Farah. We will meet again soon. (Ahma)
-Uhm! (Farah)
I nod and say goodbye to Ahma and her family. After parting from Ahma’s family and leaving the village, we decided to go back to the country Ecrax so I could resume the lesson at the school.
-Hahhh~I am so tired, Hana. (Farah)
I look at Hana with sparkling eyes and persuade her to carry me.
-Master. (Hana)
-Yes? (Farah)
-Did you become weaker as the side effect of making this mess? (Hana)
-Ehh? (Farah)
I could feel a hint of anger in Hana’s voice. She sighs and commands her nanomachine to create a vehicle.
-We will go back with this, master. (Farah)
-Right… (Hana)
Hana usually lets me stay on her lap or beside her in the vehicle. But today, Hana makes me sit in front of her.
-I remember everything, master. (Hana)
-Uhm… (Farah)
-It took me some time to manage all the new information, which resulted in me arriving late by your side. (Hana)
-… (Farah)
-I could notice some events have been altered, master. It’s your work, right? (Hana)
Hana looks into my eyes and asks in a serious voice.
-What did you do inside the forest, master? (Hana)
I don’t think I can hide anything from Hana. In the end, I have no choice but to tell Hana everything.
-I see… (Hana)
Hana nods and reaches her hand to my cheek. She pulls them away with great force.
-Awwww! It hurts, Hana. (Farah)
-Master always makes me worried about you. Can you just be a good girl and stay in one place? (Hana)
I push Hana’s hand away and pout.
-You already know the answer. (Farah)
Hana sighs and declares out loud.
-I forbid you from eating sweets for one month. (Hana)
-No wayyyyyy! (Farah)
I look down and feel like this is the end of the world.
-Hah! Master shouldn’t use your power like that. What if the side effect results in taking your life? Have you ever thought about that? (Hana)
-I… (Farah)
-The power you got is not almighty. Those powers are all double-edged swords that could bite you back anytime. Luckily, you are only affected slightly by the side effect. (Hana)
I was silent at what Hana told me. Because these things could possibly happen when I abuse my power.
-Though, I understand the change in your DIV, master. (Hana)
-Ehh? (Farah)
-Do you want to know why, master? (Hana)
I nod rapidly and wait for Hana to tell me the story.
-All started from 40 years ago, master. In the original world, the royalty assassinated the saint at that time. Then, the royalty quickly absorbed the church power with the loss of the saint. And they combined in one force like the original world. (Hana)
Hana points at me and speaks.
-But you changed that event, master. (Hana)
-Heh? (Farah)
I couldn’t remember doing anything related to the past saint.
-At the moment the saint was attacked, she prayed and wished someone would save her. And… (Hana)
-And…? (Farah)
-A figure of a girl with a tentacle appears and kills all the assassins. (Hana)
-Huh? (Farah)
-The survivors gave away different testimony about that girl. Some people said the girl had pink hair. While others declared she had god-like beauty. (Hana)
-That sounds like… (Farah)
-You, right? (Hana)
-… (Farah)
-That girl also gave the saint of the knight at that time a mysterious power. Those powers gave the church strength to stand on an equal foot with the royalty. It makes them can no longer move irresponsibly against the church. (Hana)
-I see… (Farah)
-Master! You also learned about the history of the holy country, right? (Hana)
-Yes… (Farah)
-The old church was a group of atheists. They believed humans should be the ones who controlled their own fate. But it’s all change with your appearance, master. (Hana)
Hana touches her watch and makes a hologram pops up in mid-air.
-This is their current coat of arms. (Hana)
I could see an image of tentacles wrapped around a praying girl.
-You have become their god and their religion, master. (Hana)
