Chapter 246 Chapter 246: The Past

---

--Dragon Nation- Sealed City--

Sighing deeply beside the bed, the little nun wiped the slight sweat from her forehead as the holy light gradually dissipated.

"You've worked hard, Thia." Nova, sitting cross-legged on the bed, opened her eyes immediately after. Her usually majestic dragon eyes now held only tenderness as she looked gratefully at Suthia, who had been healing her.

The little nun shook her head, then took off her boots and climbed onto the bed, sitting shoulder to shoulder with Nova.

"Nova, do you know? I feel especially happy right now."

"Uh-huh, being by master's side, I also..."

Before Nova could finish, Suthia interrupted her, "No, no, no, it's not just because of master, but also because of you. I feel like we're back to the beginning, able to be together like a family."

"Ever since everyone established their own nations, I've felt that we've become distant and unfamiliar with each other. Although the environment was tough in the past, and we might have faced countless battles every day, we were always together. But 500 years later, it's become so difficult to even see each other."

"So now, being able to sit face-to-face and side-by-side with you on the same bed, I feel incredibly happy!"

Nova looked at Suthia's sparkling eyes beside her, touched her sea-blue hair, and said helplessly, "I've always been in Dragon Nation for the past 500 years, Thia, You could've come to see me anytime, just like Lena."

"Hmph, back then, you were the infamous tyrant empress. How could a little nun like me dare to see you? After all, I'm not like Lena, who has that kind of relationship with you! Right! So! Good!"

Hearing Nova mention a certain succubus, Suthia pouted and deliberately elongated the last few syllables.

"No, actually, my relationship with Lena isn't that close," Nova said a bit frantically upon seeing Suthia react this way.

"Really!?"

"Thank you for your comforting words, Nova..."

"You're welcome."

"Heh, don't be too proud, even if you are spotless now, what about before you met master? I certainly don't want master to know about things from before that time."

'Before meeting master Ashen?'

Nova was taken aback by this, but quickly thought that with the abilities of 'dream' and Zero, it wouldn't be hard to recreate scenes from the past, so she...

Seeing Nova also becoming nervous and awkward, Suthia had a look of "I told you so" on her face.

Then the nun sighed, her eyes flashing with memories. She looked at the ceiling, as if speaking to Nova and to herself, "Before I met master Ashen, I was taught by my parents to be a good person who helps others, because only by trusting and helping each other can we overcome difficulties together. But in reality, I was deceived, used, and betrayed by many 'good people.' Nova, you might not believe it, but in the end, I was utterly disheartened. I thought, maybe I misunderstood. My parents didn't say there were many good people in the world, but that the world was full of bad people."

"So I thought, in a world full of bad people, why should I be a good person? Or as a good person, should I eliminate them? After all, what's the point of a world without good people?"

"Thinking back now... I was really lucky. Just as these absurd thoughts began to sprout, I fortunately collapsed at the doorstep of master's gathering place. After meeting master, I finally understood my parents."

"They weren't ignorant of the fact that there are more bad people in the world, even all bad people."

"But they insisted I become a good person, not to be deceived by those '99%' bad people, but in case I met that '1%' good person who could change my life, I... wouldn't miss it."

"As for what happened after..."

"After being with master, I realized my parents were even more right. There are indeed more good people in the world because even if there are bad people, they will be turned into good ones by master"

While Suthia was lost in her memories, Nova listened attentively.

Only after the nun finished speaking and let out a long breath, did Suthia come back from her distant memories. Nova then spoke with a hint of regret, "Thia, you should tell master these words personally, he would be very touched."

"No, no, how could I say such things to master?"

"That's a pity."

Nova looked regretful, then pulled out a small notebook from beside the bed and began to write and draw in it.
