A cry of shock came out of Sister Mony's mouth.
It was unintentional.
Her eyes lost focus as she sunk into her memories.
Was it 50 years ago?
No, no, it was even further back in time.
She wasn't a saintess yet, she was just an ignorant apprentice sister. She once saw the glory of the last God's Child of Dawn from afar.
It was this kind of gentle, tenacious, unyielding, just like the first light of dawn.
That was the last glorious era of the Church of Dawn.
After that …
Even the God's Child couldn't resist time.
Aging, passing away, everything was like fate, everything was predestined.
When the God's Child passed away, she became one of the saintess candidates.
When the nobles started to rebel against the church, she accepted the mission and became the saintess.
Then, the Church of Dawn declined day by day and became history.
In fact, it could only exist in certain books.
All that was left was a school.
It felt like a dream.
Sister Mony heaved a long sigh after she regained her senses.
She had a clear look at the face of the person who came.
Kieran.
Not the God's Child in her memories.
But because of that, Sister Mony looked at Kieran with a complicated expression.
Guntherson wouldn't hide the fact that Kieran might be the God's Child but following Kieran's death, the information became useless.
But Kieran appeared again.
He appeared in a much stronger form than she had imagined.
After the fall of the Church of Dawn, the God's Child appeared.
Was it a joke of fate?
All of a sudden, Sister Mony didn't know how to face Kieran anymore.
John was looking at Kieran with an astonished expression.
According to the Chief Officer's memories, Kieran should have been eaten by the monster.
Kieran glanced over the two of them and took in their expressions. His lips curled up into a smile.
"It's been a while!
"2567 greets Sister Moni and Chief Officer John."
"It's great to be able to see familiar faces after such a long journey!"
Kieran pretended to sigh.
In the eyes of the world, the great detective Kieran was already 'dead' — and Kieran had little chance of changing this impression.
It wasn't just because of the [Background]'s instruction, but also because he was used to operating as 2567.
"Qin … 2567, what happened?"
"Where have you been for the past six months?"
The chief officer addressed Kieran awkwardly.
The chief officer was doubtful about the pseudonym 2567, but he still addressed Kieran as Kieran.
Kieran was a good friend of his, and he had saved his life before.
The chief officer naturally knew what to do.
And Sister Moni?
The elderly sister didn't say a word until now, she just looked at Kieran quietly.
"Let's go somewhere else?"
"This is not a good place to talk."
The sheriff pointed to the bodies on the ground.
"Sure."
Kieran, who had already collected all the useful clues, did not refuse.
…
The chief officer and Sister Moni walked side by side towards his office.
However, after a few steps, the chief officer couldn't help but turn around for a look.
"John, I think you should maintain your normal state."
Kieran's voice came from the shadows beside him.
"If a person can maintain his normal state after merging with the shadows … I think that person must be abnormal!"
"No, no, Sister Moni, I don't mean any disrespect!
It's just … It's just that … everything is too shocking! "
The chief officer who wasn't exactly clumsy started to stutter.
Sister Moni beside him wasn't angry.
She didn't display her calmness at all.
At the bottom of her heart, there were already raging waves.
It was filled with dense Dawn Energy.
It was an extraordinary stealth ability.
Within a mere six months, Kieran had reached such a level. Sister Moni who was familiar with the history of the Church of Dawn knew very well that even the first generation God's Child who founded the Church of Dawn wasn't as powerful as Kieran.
Kieran, who far surpassed the first generation God's Child, appeared in the era when the Church of Dawn was on the decline …
"Oh merciful Bernadette, please tell your believers that you have returned?"
Sister Moni prayed in her heart.
Naturally, there was no answer.
Those who went far were long gone.
Those who returned had just returned.
Like the four seasons, the cycle of reincarnation was endless yet different.
Not a single summer was the same.
Even though they were all scorching hot.
"I'm sorry, I only have water here."
Inside the office, Kieran walked out from the shadows and sat on the sofa. Beside him was Sister Moni. The chief officer picked up the kettle.
Three thick glasses were filled with hot water, steam rose up from them.
Kieran simply picked up his own glass and started to tell his story.
"When I woke up, I was on a ship. The sailors who fished me up didn't know much, neither did I."
"Heavily injured and penniless, I had to stay on the ship. Fortunately, the captain was a nice guy, he tried his best to find me some medicine and of course … it was also because of the awakened power in my body, my injuries recovered quickly."
"But when the ship docked, I realized I was in another country. It was really difficult to return here — for the past half a year, I've been on a journey, on foot, on horseback, following a merchant group, crossing the sea and finally, I'm back here!"
Kieran said slowly.
"Awakened power?"
The chief officer didn't even doubt what Kieran said, instead, his attention was captivated by a certain part of Kieran's words.
Sister Moni shared the same thought.
Although she didn't say anything, when the chief officer asked, Sister Moni pretended to be listening attentively.
It was what Kieran wanted.
"Em.
That's what I call it! "
"Because I don't know why it grew so quickly. Although I learned this power under Guntherson's guidance, when I woke up, this power had gone through an earth-shattering change. It was many times stronger, and I even learned some other knowledge!"
Kieran said.
At the same time, he raised his hand and Dawn Force started to gather in his hand.
It sounded ridiculous but when the chief officer saw the white light in Kieran's hand, he didn't doubt it at all.
Everything that happened before his eyes had exceeded his understanding.
The shock in his heart made him forget his doubts.
As for when he calmed down?
Even more so.
It was Sister Monica who had spoken.
"Awakened the inheritance on its own?
Other than the first generation God's Child, 2567, you are the only God's Child who can achieve this. "
The moment her words subsided, Sister Moni stood up and performed an ancient salute to Kieran.
Wung!
The moment the ancient salute appeared, the Dawn Force in Kieran's body shook.
Then, it started to move in an even more active manner.
White brilliance emanated from Kieran's body.
It made Kieran who was sitting there look holy and dignified.
