The quiet day passed quickly. As expected by Cheon Sa-yeon and Elohim, the Praus followers had been active all over the world, but no major accidents had occurred yet to cause concern.

It meant that Kali's minions, who established the Praus Cult and managed them, weren't moving.

"For now, it would be better to focus more on variables."

"Variables?"

"Yes. Variables have always been there, but rarely has it been as difficult to guess as this time. Se-hyun-ah, your existence is, of course, a variable, but..."

After a moment's silence, Elohim's bright gold eyes lit up.

"More than that, I'm more concerned about that person named Kang Seung-geon."

A long time had passed since the Korean guild management headquarters was attacked. Elohim and Elahah's price ended a week ago, and their physical condition had returned to their original state.

"I still don't know exactly why they took him. Still, I don't think it would be very dangerous because only his body is S-rank and his ability is useless."

"No. I'm worried about what kind of results the minor changes made when a person named Kang Seung-geon intervened."

"Ah."

"To be honest, there are many other than Kang Seung-geon. People whose lives have changed. Aren't there a few people around you?"

At Elohim's words, Ha Tae-heon and Kim Woo-jin came to mind. I had thought many times before about their changed lives.

"Butterfly effect. Are you talking about that?"

"Yes. Each time the time was repeated, there was a small margin of error, but this time, it's so big that we'd better be prepared in advance."

"......"

"There may be people we didn't expect. And it would be... very dangerous."

"Even so..."

While staying here, I confirmed the power of my abilities with my own eyes. Also, how difficult each of those around the world were going through.

"I will overcome it somehow."

These were facts that would have gone unnoticed had I not made the decision to go see the Prophet. And if that were the case, I would have quietly disappeared at the same time as Cheon Sa-yeon failed.

"Now I understand why you gave me candy."

The day Ha Tae-heon left, Elohim, who brought me to the temple, offered as a second price to eat candy and dream for 70 days.

At the time, I wondered if he was trying to use me to stop Kali.

"In the end, I needed this ability to survive."

My eyes recovered, and Elohim, who could see everything I was thinking, smiled bitterly and stroked my hair gently.

Hesitating at the touch of affection, I opened my mouth.

"If you had explained it, I would have accepted even if it wasn't for the price."

"You can't do that."

His white hand came down to my face and tickled my cheek. There was a faint scent of flowers.

"It was us who wanted you to be aware of your ability, so of course, we should pay a fair price."

"...do you want me not to die?"

"Of course, it is. Not only me, but Elahah as well."

Elohim, who had touched my lips for the last time after sweeping around my eyes and cheek, took his hand.
