So I'm a sheep.

Believers who think one god is powerful today and another god is powerful tomorrow will never become devout, even if they worship a goddess.

'Just a shallow believer for life'

..........................................................

The three bishops and many priests were busy, but Andrew had a blank, dazed expression.

He stood there with a hunched back, ignoring the occasional talk from a believer.

"Your Excellency, why is your priest ignoring everyone?"

Someone ran to Laura to complain, and she said angrily, "I wanted to ask that priest some questions, but he wouldn't answer even after I asked him several times."

"I'm so sorry, Father Andrew..."

Laura hesitated for a moment before whispering, "He lost loved ones in the disaster. Please understand his feelings."

"what"

The man, who was initially furious, immediately showed sympathy upon hearing this.

"I don't know... Well, I'm the one who should apologize."

After offering him a few words of comfort, Lola quickly walked towards Andrew.

“Father Andrew, why don’t you go back and rest for a day? The church has enough staff now.”

"Your Excellency, I don't want to go back."

Andrew said in a hoarse voice, "As soon as I got home, I thought of my Emily, and my wife kept crying."

"The church is nice; it's quiet here."

Is it quiet?

It was so noisy all around.

A sudden thought struck Lola, and she managed to say in a calm tone, "Alright then, Father, be careful not to push yourself too hard."

Andrew nodded silently, his blank expression returning.

'By Goddess, may peace return to the earth after this disaster.'

.................................................. ..

The church was busy until late at night before it could finally close its doors.

"Lola, don't just stand there, it's time to go back to the dorm."

"Senior, I want to go home!"

"Hey, it's so late..."

Seeing the expression on Lola's face, Sophia changed her mind and said, "I'll have the soldiers take you back. Do you need to ask for leave tomorrow?"

"No need to ask for leave, senior. I'm just going home to visit and will stay for one night."

"Okay, take care of yourself, and call us if you need anything."

"Thank you, senior!"

"..."

Sitting silently in the passenger seat, Lola was filled with mixed emotions.

She ran away from home, joined the church, became a novice nun, learned she had become a superhuman, was promoted to bishop, and then disaster struck...

It doesn't seem like much time has passed, but so much has really happened.

The resentment I felt towards him has gradually dissipated over time.

Even after being touched by Father Andrew's words this morning, I actually started to miss that person terribly.

"Your Excellency, is this the place?"

"Ah, this is... my home."

Looking out the car window at the ruins before her, Lola was stunned.

What happened to my home?

"..."

Well, that's normal.

After all, with so many terrifying monsters rampaging through the city, it's normal to lose your home.

Lola covered her mouth, and tears streamed down her face.

When we talked on the phone this morning, he said everything was fine at home and nothing was wrong.

You're lying to me, you're lying to me again!

"Your Excellency, a group of people is approaching this place."

The soldier's wary words interrupted Lola's thoughts. She glanced in the rearview mirror and saw a familiar face.

"It's alright, it's my father and his bodyguard. I'll go down and talk to them."

Lola stormed out of the car and ran quickly to Carlos: "You lied to me again!"

"Your house is in ruins, and you still say everything is fine!"

"..."

Looking at Lola in surprise, Carlos couldn't help but ask, "Why are you back so late?"

"I missed home, so I came back, but that won't do!"

Lola's tone was harsh; in the past, if his daughter had dared to speak to him like that, Carlos would have had the urge to slap her.

But now, a strange feeling of warmth welled up in the man's heart.

'Isn't it good that my daughter is noisy and fussy?'

'Compared to those fathers who lost their children in the disaster, I am already very fortunate.'

"Lola, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to worry."

After a pause, Carlos asked, "Are you doing well at church?"

"I'm fine, Senior Sophia is taking good care of me."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Carlos didn't want the atmosphere to become awkward, so he tried to talk to Lola about something interesting.

After thinking for a long time, the mayor sadly realized that he and his daughter had almost nothing in common anymore.

what's the topic?

Is it government affairs, new urban planning, or the cult's horrific human modification program?

Carlos was speechless, but Lola started the conversation first.

"Dad, do you have any religious beliefs?"

"Hmm? Yes, I am a follower of Aquaman."

What is your faith level?

This was a somewhat sensitive question, and Carlos instinctively replied, "Sorry, the faith levels of government officials are not publicly disclosed."

Lola couldn't help but chuckle: "Dad, are you just saying that to me?"

Carlos was momentarily embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said vaguely, "It's too much trouble to explain in detail, but in short, it's enough to ensure that I won't develop the ghost face syndrome."

"Can it be ensured by faith alone, or by taking tranquilizers?"

"..."

"Lola, why are you asking such detailed questions?"

"Could it be that you want to recruit me into the Church of Destiny?" Carlos said jokingly.

That's right.

Lola nodded: "You didn't have much of a faith before I ran away from home, and you were being vague and unwilling to answer directly just now. I'm guessing you're just a novice believer, right?"

"Today, many novice followers of the Neptune Society have converted to our Lord, you..."

"Wait, Lola, can we not talk about this?"

Carlos looked around nervously, fearing that a group of reporters might suddenly appear.

But that's exactly what I want to talk about.

The girl frowned: "Dad, I know some inside information, the Sea King Society..."

"No, no, no, Lola, I give up."

“If you insist on talking about faith, let’s not do it here. It’s so late now. Are you going back to church later?”

"I originally planned to stay at home for one night."

Laura said dejectedly, "I've lost my home. I think I'll go back to my dorm later."

"It's rare for us to meet, so I'd like to talk to you more."

Carlos thought for a moment and said, "I'm staying in another neighborhood for the time being. How about you come stay with me for the night?"

"Okay, where is the address?"

"I'll call my senior first, so she won't be unable to find me tomorrow morning."

.........................................................

"Wow, this is a pretty nice house, much better than I imagined."

As soon as Lola entered, she began to exclaim in admiration, "As expected of Mayor Carlos, he never compromises himself anywhere."

"..."

I used to think my daughter was quite friendly, but now I feel like she's asking for a beating.
