The World God Only Knows GS

"God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life."

The clear and beautiful female voice echoed in the church, revealing a sense of solemnity and sacredness.Kneeling in front of the big cross in the church with a cross in hand, Dongyue, dressed as a nun, recited the scriptures of the Gospel of John with her eyes closed.

"He must increase, but I must decrease."

The reciting continues.

Quietly standing at the entrance of the side of the church looking at the winter moon, Shiro whispered to the snowman beside him: "She is already very skilled, snowman."

"Yes, father."

Nodding and smiling, Yukio and Shiro, who also responded to his father with a very low volume, looked at Dongyue together.

At first, Yukio was really surprised when Shiro asked him to teach Dongyue exorcist the basic knowledge.But what surprised Xuenan even more was Dongyue's terrifying memory speed and speed of digesting knowledge.As long as Xuenan explains to Dongyue once, Dongyue can completely transform what Xuenan said into an objective personal understanding and remember it.

"It seems that she will be able to obtain the title of singing knight soon."

Chanting Knight is the title with the lowest threshold in the qualification certification of exorcists. Regardless of physical fitness and combat ability, as long as they can recite the scriptures correctly, no matter what kind of exorcist they are, they can get this title.But this does not mean that the title of chant knight is easy to obtain.

The Gospels alone in the New Testament include four volumes: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.The first volume of the Gospel, Matthew, has another 28 chapters, one thousand, 160 and eight verses.Even without statistics, it is conceivable how many scriptures the chant knight needs to recite.

Although the chant knight must cooperate with other exorcists and cannot fight by himself, it is difficult to make a difference when encountering high-level demons who are difficult to find the deadly knot.Singing knights have always been considered the weakest group among exorcists, but they can still protect themselves in front of ordinary low-level demons.

There is no learning of firearms skills from Shiro, no deliberate exercise or access to the core of the exorcist organization.It's just that Dongyue, who is constantly learning theological common sense and reciting scriptures, seems to have no desire beyond self-protection.This reassured Shiro a little, and made Yukio a little relieved.

——Unlike Rin, who didn't know anything, Yukio, who had just won the titles of Dragon Knight and Medic Knight, was already an exorcist capable of acting on his own, and the other three monks were told by Shiro to monitor Dongyue.The reason why Shi Lang made this decision was also explained to Yukio.

(...Only my brother doesn't know anything.)

The lake green eyes behind the black-rimmed glasses diverted their attention.Looking at the pews sitting in the last row of the church from a distance, listening to Lin who was reciting Dongyue's recitation quietly at this time, a mixed feeling gradually emerged in Xuenan's heart.

In all fairness, Dongyue is a good girl.From the time she came to this monastery until now, she has hardly caused any trouble to the people around her.Not only that, Dongyue also gave smiles and tranquility to those around her.

It's a world of difference from Rin, who often comes back with injuries from fighting everywhere, Dongyue is reasonable and kind.Previously, Rin's reputation as a "son of the devil" was too "prominent" because he was always looking for trouble, had constant conflicts with others, and always beat his opponents so that he could not fight back. This monastery is full of men, not many girls Sex devotees, especially young women, are afraid to approach the monastery.

After Dongyue joined the monastery as a trainee nun, the situation gradually improved: Lin, who was pulled by Dongyue to help with the work in the monastery, started to often act with Dongyue, and reduced the time spent wandering outside, fighting with others. The frequency then plummeted.Rin, who used to have a few Band-Aids on his body, rarely asked Xue Nan to bandage his wounds recently.

After the people around slowly discovered that the "son of the devil" was just an ordinary boy who would help women hang clothes with a cheerful smile, their fear of Rin naturally decreased.Coupled with the fact that Yukio was already very popular among the people around him, especially the women, the Southern Cross Monastery soon ceased to be deserted.

As a trainee nun, Fuyutsuki is loved by everyone.However, such Dongyue has a secret that is not known to people outside the monastery: she is a person who has a mysterious relationship with a high-ranking demon that has not yet been clarified.

(...)

Thinking of Dongyue's secret told by Shi Lang, the smile on Xue Nan's face melted like ice and snow.

Unlike Yukio, when he touched the beard on his chin, he could see the corner of Shiro's mouth that was staring at Dongyue intently, listening to Dongyue reciting scriptures, grinning upwards.How could the son's changes be hidden from him as a father?Shiro knows Rin's change better than anyone.

(It's really useful, this chant.)

Shi Lang thinks that the scriptures recited by Dongyue have the greatest significance not to exorcise demons and protect herself, nor is it to enable her to obtain the title of singing knight.The greatest significance of Dongyue's recited scriptures is that these scriptures have washed Rin's heart, making him no longer as irritable and impulsive as before.

(Although this is probably not the effect of the text itself.)

He didn't fear Rin or avoid Rin like other people, he could talk to Rin normally, and he could stay by Rin's side normally.While not avoiding harm to Rin, he will not be easily hurt by Rin's actions; Dongyue, who will protect herself, also protects Rin in a sense.This kind of Dongyue has gradually become "special" to Rin, which is not unexpected by Shi Lang.

At this time, Shi Lang is unwilling to think about other things.For example, the potential danger of Dongyue, for example, Dongyue's approach to Rin may be to use Rin.At this time, Shi Lang just wants to smile and watch his lovely son silently, and is happy that there is another person who can accept him beside his son who is always not accepted by others.

"...he who believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not believe in the Son will not have eternal life, and God's wrath remains upon him..."

After reciting the last verse she remembered, Dongyue let out a long breath.

"Is this the end of today?"

"what……"

Hearing a voice from behind her, Dongyue turned her head, only to notice Rin's existence.

"Rin, good morning."

"morning!"

Seeing Dongyue smiling and saying good morning to herself, a cheerful smile appeared on Rin's face.

"What are you going to do next? I'll help you."

"Going shopping today. The food in the refrigerator is basically gone."

After answering Lin's question casually, Dongyue suddenly thought of another thing.Holding back the smile on her face, Dongyue looked at Rin with a little worry.

"I'm grateful that Rin can go shopping with me. But is it okay with the school? I remember that Rin hasn't been to school for many days."

Hearing this, Rin was startled at first, and then smiled again: "It doesn't matter! The number of study days in school is enough, and the graduation certificate can be obtained. Since I don't plan to go to school, there is no need to go to school again."

"And, to be honest...I don't like school very much. School is not suitable for idiots like me..."

Rin said, frowning wryly and scratching her cheek.

School is not a place full of fond memories for Rin.In that microcosm world of adult society, Rin, who is always compared with Yukio, is discriminated against every day.Rin, who has no friends, is always picked on by others, and fights with people almost every day.Bad rumors about Rin spread day by day, and the only people in the school who were willing to take the initiative to approach Rin were Yukio and those who came to find fault with Rin.So there are fights every day, and the vicious circle of spreading vicious rumors has no end.

"..."

When I see Rin, I will inevitably think of Shizuo.Hearing those bad rumors about Rin from other people, Dongyue, who somewhat guessed what happened to Rin at school, softened her heart.

"Then ask Rin for help today."

Dongyue smiled again.

"Rin's strength is great, and she can help me a lot every time."

"hey-hey……"

With an embarrassed smile, Rin walked beside Dongyue.

(So ​​I like being around her.)

He won't talk to Rin like Shiro and Yukio, and he won't look down on Rin like the school teachers, and he won't be like those who are afraid of Rin and hate Rin Treat Rin like a monster and avoid him.

Dongyue will not ask Rin to make any changes, nor will she interfere with Rin's actions.Dongyue will not put any pressure and burden on Rin, so being with Dongyue can make Rin feel at ease from the bottom of his heart.

The temperature of the sun was cut off by thick clouds, and thin snowflakes fell from the silver-gray sky.

After finishing the purchases, Dongyue couldn't help shivering when he walked out of the shopping street with Rin carrying the big and small bags.

"Suddenly it snowed..."

Thinking that wearing too much would become an obstacle to snatching limited-time and limited discounted food from the aunts, Dongyue, who would also be very hot walking back to the monastery with big bags, wore less clothes than usual.There is a roof over the Southern Cross shopping street, and there are many pedestrians passing by, so the temperature is relatively higher than outside.Dongyue, who was used to this temperature, felt cold not long after she stepped out of the shopping street.

"Yes!"

Rin was still at an age when he would be excited by snowfall. Looking at the sky with fine snow, Rin turned his head and smiled at Dongyue who was walking behind him a little slower: "I didn't expect it to snow at this time. Obviously it will be spring soon. "

"Ah."

Lin's innocent smile made Dongyue feel warm.Has a half-sister, but has never been relied on by her even once.Dongyue, who had never seen her younger sister smiling towards her from the bottom of her heart, thought "how wonderful it would be if Rin was my younger brother" in his mind.

"Winter Moon,"

A call brought back the mind of Dongyue, who was rarely wandering in the sky.

"what?"

Looking up at Rin's lake-blue eyes, Dongyue didn't expect that Rin would take the bag from her cold right hand in the next second, let alone that Rin would hold her left hand with his warm left hand.

"That's how..."

With lowered eyes, obviously shy, Rin took Dongyue's hand and walked away without looking back.

"Is it a little colder?"

"..."

Looking at Lin's not-so-tall back, Dongyue was momentarily at a loss for words.Following Rin's movements, he followed Rin's back and took another step. The warmth from his right hand made Dongyue, who was still in a daze for a second, smile in the next second.

"Well, it's not cold anymore."

Maybe it was because of the cold air, or maybe it was because of some other reason, the roots of Rin's ears who walked in front of Dongyue were dyed a thin crimson.
