So I'm a sheep.

"How could he be injured like this? Who could be so cruel!"

"Well, I accidentally fell down the mountain while chopping wood."

"How could that be? Aran, you were clearly beaten!"

The little girl was really angry: "Don't lie to me, who beat you up like this?"

"..."

"Your father?"

Aran pursed her lips, and tears welled up in the eyes of this strong girl.

"My father found out about the gift you gave me, Lady Sasha, because I didn't hide it properly."

"He wants to sell it to buy more wine... but it's a gift from you, how can I let him sell it?"

“I absolutely refused, and my father got angry and beat me up.”

Volume 1: Chapter 93 Please Help Me

"I'm so sorry, Lady Sasha, I didn't keep your gift safe."

Aran lowered her head: "I clearly wanted to keep it as a lifelong memento, but..."

"Are you his enemy? This is practically trying to kill him."

The little girl took her hand, and the Miracle Light activated, causing the girl's injuries to heal at a visible speed.

"Aran, come on, I'll go with you to find him!"

Normally, these kinds of family problems are not Sasha's business. When she first discovered that Aran had been slapped by her father, she didn't say much.

But this time he went too far!

Even without asking, the little girl could guess that the reason she hadn't come to see her for several days was because she was in so much pain that she couldn't walk and could only lie in bed.

What's even more unacceptable is...

“Aran, you walk with a limp, how could he force you to go up the mountain to chop firewood?”

"..."

Aran pursed her lips and remained silent. She neither cried to the little girl about her drunkard father's wickedness, nor did she immediately take Sasha home to seek justice for herself.

She remained silent with her head down for a long while before saying apologetically, "Lady Sasha, thank you for thinking of me so much. I am truly touched."

"But that's not allowed."

"Why not?"

The little girl asked angrily, "Aran, are you going to keep taking things this way forever?"

"That's just how it is, there's nothing we can do about it."

Aran sighed and said, "I am his daughter, and a daughter cannot disobey her father."

“If I take you home today and teach him a lesson, then starting tomorrow, I will have no place in the village.”

“Everyone will say I am an unfilial daughter, that I am ‘vicious’ Aran.”

“My infamy will soon spread to the nearby villages. It’s also very close to the Grand Duke’s castle. Maybe even Grand Duke Wood will know about this wicked woman by then.”

"Lady Sasha, that's not all."

Aran's voice grew softer and softer: "A son disobeying his father and a subject murdering his ruler are two grave sins that the Church explicitly forbids."

"If Aran knowingly violates the rules, even the goddess would be unhappy."

"..."

After the girl said that, Sasha fell silent.

She wasn't unable to refute Arran's words; to give the most classic example—the grandfather of the founding monarch of the Duchy of Nister, the Grand Duke Wood.

That man was the third son of the King of Moonlit Kingdom at the time. Wasn't he the one who split off from Moonlit Kingdom and became Nister because he was dissatisfied with his elder brother's succession and relied on his strong army?

Did Lord Wood's grandfather not commit either of the two heinous crimes of "son disobeying father" or "subject murdering ruler"?

He must have offended them, but the church never mentions it because of his power!

'But there's no point in me giving Aran such an example. Although I want to help her, continuing to insist will only bring her trouble.'

The little girl was very frustrated. Of course, she could have acted in secret, but this way... it just felt like something was missing.

"Aran, when you go back, be careful and try not to make him angry."

Sasha felt even more upset after saying this. She turned around and was about to turn over a piece of ground to vent her anger when Aran suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Ok?"

The little girl turned around and saw Aran's eyes, and she immediately froze.

The girl looked at Sasha with teary eyes, her gaze filled with expectation, but even more so with suppressed emotions.

After Ah Ran grabbed the little girl, she herself was stunned for a moment.

She looked somewhat puzzled, as if she didn't understand why she had just made such a strange move.

Her hand loosened little by little, and Aran lowered her head once again.

"Aran, I've only just realized how beautiful your eyes are."

Unexpectedly, the young girl uttered such frivolous words, and two blushes appeared on Aran's face.

"Lady Sasha, what are you saying?!"

"Haha, I just suddenly thought of saying it."

Aran's unexpected pull changed the little girl's original plan.

"Aran, there are some things I need to make clear to you."

Sasha looked into Aran's eyes and said in a deep voice, "The will of the Church of Stars does not represent the will of the Goddess."

"Even whether the church in this world is accepted by the angels, I will have to wait until I finish my investigation before I can draw a conclusion."

The little girl's words stunned Aran. Although she knew that Sasha had come down to the mortal realm to investigate the Starry Night Church, she never expected it to be this kind of investigation.

"Lady Sasha, does the Church not represent the Goddess?"

“Even I wouldn’t dare say I can represent the goddess, so of course this church, which is still under evaluation, can’t.”

"Then, the doctrines preached by the church..."

“I don’t have a complete understanding of the doctrines of the Church of the Stars, but from the few words you’ve shared, I can tell that the Church of the Stars has definitely altered the doctrines originally passed down by the angels.”

The little girl said calmly, "Actually, just from this point of view, the church in this world is already unqualified."

"..."

Sasha's words undoubtedly overturned Aran's worldview, and the sacred and inviolable image of the Starry Church collapsed in an instant.

The girl remained silent for a long while, and finally asked in a trembling voice, "Lady Sasha, I want to know, what is the true meaning of the goddess?"

“You’ve come to the right angel. I recently copied a huge book full of the goddess’s teachings to us.”

The little girl waved, and Aran obediently bent down and leaned her head closer.

Sasha tapped the girl's forehead with her finger and shared her memories of the large book with Aran.

"Well"

Suddenly, a bunch of things popped into Aran's head, and she looked very uncomfortable.

"My friend, go back and think it over carefully these next few days."

"If you need my help, you can come here to see me anytime during the day."

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

Sasha wasn't sure if Aran would come to her for help.

But whatever the outcome, it was her own choice.

As the little girl was waving her hoe, her mind wandering slightly because of Ah Ran's matter, a familiar voice came from afar.

"Lady Sasha!"

"Hey, good morning."

The little girl greeted the girl with a smile: "What, you've figured it out in just one night?"

I've figured it out.

Aran nodded earnestly: "The goddess said that parents should love their children."

“If I do something wrong, my father is right to punish me.”

"But he can't take his frustrations out on me every time he's unhappy; that goes against the teachings of the goddess!"

"so?"

"So, please help me, Lady Sasha."

As she spoke, the girl bowed deeply to the little girl.

Volume 1: Chapter 94 Impatience for Quick Success

"Aran, is this a decision you've made after careful consideration?"

The little girl confirmed again, "Just like you said yesterday, your decision will have very serious consequences for you."

"Lady Sasha, as long as my lord doesn't blame me, let others say or do whatever they want."

Aran's voice was gentle yet powerful. After having that huge book in her mind, the girl seemed to have undergone a transformation overnight.

"it is good"

The little girl put down her hoe, patted the mud off her clothes, and said, "We're going to your house right now!"

Led by Aran, Sasha quickly arrived at her friend's dilapidated house, ignoring the whispers of the village women.

"Aran, nobody's here."
