CHAPTER 289 – CAROLINE’S AWAKENING


「Eudora……san」


「Ara, I heard that the Child of God doesn’t speak much, but that doesn’t seem to be the case . Or am I just lucky enough?」


Eudora giggled a laugh .


From the side, she looks like a noblewoman showing an elegant smile . Proving that were several believersーーespecially men getting stunned by her look .


She has a friendly smile and an elegant demeanor .


But still, Caroline furrowed her brows .


It was unknown whether Eudora noticed it or not .


She continued while smiling .


「It is very convenient if we can have a talk . Caroline-sama, I have something to ask from you」


「……no」


「ーー!」


Before Eudora finished, Caroline refused without consideration .


The believers inside the church were stirred and Eudora’s expression turned stiff for an instant .


「That……why is it?」


「It doesn’t matter」


「That is troubling . Can you please at least listen to what I say」


「……」


Caroline looked like she didn’t like her company, making an obvious expression .


「……you seem to be very frank huh . It cannot be helped, I shall leave for today」


After Eudora said that, she turned around and left the church .


She really seemed like she acted maturely . Adding to the air around her and her elegant bearing, some believers looked at Caroline with clear disapproval and discontent .


They look as if they would’ve been making a fuss about it if Caroline wasn’t the “Child of God” .


Naturally, those gazes, their emotions, they did not reach Caroline .


She saw off Eudora with a confused and unpleasant expression .


Even now, in Caroline’s eyes, Eudora seemed to be something that is disgustingly dark and dirty .



After getting into her carriage, Eudora whispered an order to her subordinate .


「Go and thoroughly investigate that girl . From her birth, taste and preferences, to the color of the underwear she wears . Find out everything . There must be something . Something that would make her listen to me」


「Ha!」


Her subordinate received her order and left .


Inside the carriage that started moving, Eudora whispered to herself with a scowling expression .


「That little brat who’s conceited for being called the child of god……I’ll definitely make you regret this」


Eudora cursed out in the place where no one was looking .


Although her beauty was still present and the same, her expression was wicked and fierce, incomparable to what she had shown earlier .


It’s her true expression she only shows when she’s absolutely sure that no one is looking .


「It’s like a different person」


『Kukuku, she is quite decent in looking good outside』


Eleanor and I looked at that expression closely .


In the same carriage, on the seat opposite to her .


I got in the same carriage while clad in my camouflage aura .


Thanks to that, she can’t see me at all .


「I’d probably refuse anything someone like this asks . No, in the first place, there’s no way she’d bring something reasonable」


『She seem to say something about threatening that girl too』


「She did . However, why did Caroline rejected her?」


『She didn’t even let her talk about it』


「Caroline had an unpleasant expression the instant she saw her . As if she’s looking at garbage」


『Umu . She was looking at Nikki just a moment ago, so the difference on her expression was terrible』


「……what do you think?」


『She might have heard something impossible for the common man』


I nodded .


I agreed with Eleanor’s guess .


Originally, Caroline had a different “way of hearing” from the other people .


Up until now, it would be either “she could hear” or “she could not hear”, but there is the possibility that it might’ve evolved into something else .


In fact, her eyes were clearly different when she’s looking at Nikki and the other slave soldiers . She looked at them with favorable eyes .


『Are you bragging now?』


「It’s a fact that they’ve become good women」


『Kukuku, you’re no fun teasing』


Although she said that, Eleanor seemed to be having fun .


I gave it another thought . I thought of how to test and prove what happened to Caroline .



「If that is the case, there is someone very suitable」


In the Calamba Kingdom, in the Royal Capital Meteora .


Rica told me that when I came to consult her .


「Who is it? I came to ask you if you have someone you had your eyes on, one that has yet to enter the harem . Is it like that?」


「Unfortunately, it’s a man」


Rica smiled .


「I would secure those I must collect at the quickest, fast enough to win against Delfina」


「Colaria huh」


「Yes . That’s why there’s no one who is like what Kakeru described right now . I don’t have that, but there is a man who might be punished with a crime」


「Tell me the details」


After showing a graceful smile, Rica started to talk about that man .


It was a lower official in a rural area with many farmlands in a certain region .


This year, that region is was hit by a bad weather, so the kingdomーーRica gave them an exemption for taxes and sent them relief goods .


However, it was a plot by some corrupted officials, increasing their personal wealth by taking advantage of that .


The lower official found the proof for those other officials’ corruption and tried to report themーー .


「It’s a story that goes like that . On the other hand, there are reports that say that the true culprit of everything is actually that lower official」


「I see . It isn’t going anywhere huh」


「But I already caught some evidence . He’s innocent . I think that he’s just what Kakeru needs right now to test Caroline」


「That’s true . Thank you, Rica」


After I said that, I held Rica by the waist and pulled her into an embrace, then gave her a deep kiss .


Rica looked entranced and she leaned her body to mine .


「Is there anyone else who’s like him?」


「Although they’re not completely clearly proved, there is a few」


「I’ll be using all of them」


「Un . I’ll bring you the list」


I gave Rica another kiss when she was about to call someone to order, giving her the advance payment she deserves .



「Caroline」


「God」


In Ainon’s church, in Caroline’s bedroom .


I directly warped into her room .


Caroline was unexpectedly calm although it has been a while since she saw me .


「What’s the matter, God?」


「Un, no, it’s nothing . More importantly, come with me」


「To where?」


「To the prison」


「The prison……」


Caroline had a face of wondering what it was all about, but even so, she unhesitatingly took my hand when I reached out to her .


Holding her tightly, I warped to the prison I was led to once before .


It’s an underground prison where felons are locked up .


The stone walls and iron bars releases a solemn atmosphere .


「Over here」


「Un」


I brought Caroline in front of the man I was looking for .


It’s the lower official who had reported corruption yet he was accused to be the corrupted one .


「Eh?」


As soon as she saw the man, Caroline’s eyes widened .


She hasn’t even heard the man speak, but she already raised a voice of surprise .


「Why is that person, in a place like this?」


「Can you tell something?」


「Un . He’s the same after all, with that person God talked with . He looks shining」


「To the one I talked to?」


「That amazing woman saluting」


「Nikki huh……you saw us huh」


Caroline made a slight nod . Her eyes were pinned to the man .


「You see him shining, huh . What about that woman Eudora?」


「She’s so dirty」


「I see . It’s not that you can hear it, you can see it」


「Un . It’s only recently that I can see it」


「I see……Caroline」


「What?」


「I’ll make you look at different people as well」


「Un……if God says so……」


Caroline looked clueless . She definitely doesn’t know it herself .


She doesn’t know how amazing the thing she sees .


『The light of the soul, huh……』


Eleanor whispered in a solemn voice .


Eleanor had the same guess . If our guess was correct, it means that Caroline is now able to see the color of a human’s soul .


And to confirm that, I made her look at different kinds of people .



About 90% of the movement of Caroline’s heart was as Kakeru had expected .


The remaining 10% was beyond Kakeru’s expectations .


Caroline started to look more at humans, she started to look more and see their true nature .


Caroline was born as the Child of Godーーas the vessel for Solon, but Kakeru had never imagined that her powers would awaken, the ability to sort out souls .
