Chapter 134 Gift

Chapter 134 Gift

Late at night, in the small and dark ward, Dorothy, dressed in black, sat beside the bed, teaching her lesson to Anna, who had a dull expression, and praying to God.

Dorothy asked Anna to repeat each sentence after she recited it. As Anna's mental state was not very good, she often paused and made mistakes. Dorothy waited for a while before letting Anna finish the prayer with her.

"On this endless here;

"The destination of endless destinies;

"The door and key to the infinite truth;

"The great Akka who records all things."

Under Dorothy's instruction, Anna began to pray in a trance, praying to the name of God that she was completely unfamiliar with, and praying to Dorothy's body. In the dark and narrow space, the ethereal voice of a child echoed.

Dorothy, who was sitting next to Anna and heard the prayer up close, also received a prompt from the system. Then she immediately established a connection with Anna's prayer.

Afterwards, Dorothy immediately took action and transformed the remaining "Lamb Song" poison in Anna's mind into spirituality. In an instant, the poison in Anna's mind was swept away.

Sitting on the bed, Anna's dull eyes slowly became clear and bright. After she blinked, a hint of doubt appeared in her expression.

"Hey... I, what's wrong with me all of a sudden... It's weird..."

Muttering, Anna began to look around curiously until she saw Dorothy beside her, smiling at her.

"Teacher Meshhos...how come you are here...Ah, no, you just came in to teach me something, to teach me how to pray..." Covering her head, Anna said in a daze. It was obvious that her memory was a little confused during the period of being eroded by the poison.

"How do you feel now, Ana?"

Looking at Anna in front of her, Dorothy asked, and Anna shook her little head and spoke slowly.

"I feel... um... still a little dizzy, but better than before. At least... um... at least I know what is what..." As Anna spoke, she turned her head to look at Dorothy, and then spoke with a slightly confused expression.

"Teacher Meshihos, did you do this? Did you save me and make me sober?"

"No...it's the being you just prayed to. I just taught you how to pray. The gift of saving you was bestowed by that being." Dorothy spoke as she looked at the confused Anna in front of her. Listening to Dorothy's words, Anna began to recall the prayers she had made in a trance before.

"Pray? Yes, Teacher Meshhos suddenly came to me and said he would give me lessons and teach me how to pray. It took me a long time to learn it. The one being prayed was not the Virgin Mary... nor the Son of God or the Holy Father... but... the name was A..."

"Shh..." Just when Anna was about to say something, Dorothy made a gesture to silence her.

"Remember, don't mention anything about that person in front of anyone else. This is the rule you need to abide by to be saved..." Dorothy warned Anna in front of her. Anna was slightly stunned after listening to Dorothy's words, and then nodded.

"Um...well, Anna knows. Then, Teacher Meshhos, can you please save the other children as well? They, like me, were adopted by Viscount Field, and all of them have become strange. I heard from the doctors and nuns here that their conditions seem to be very unusual. Can you please save them as well..."

Blinking her eyes, Anna pleaded with Dorothy again. She still clearly remembered the strange behavior of the children in the orphanage during the ceremony that night. During the time when she was unconscious in the hospital, she also vaguely remembered the conversation between the doctor and the nun. She knew that she was not the only one facing difficulties at this time.

Although Anna was still a little confused about the current situation, she didn't know what the strange name of God meant, how it was different from the Virgin Mary she worshipped every day, and what relationship it had with Dorothy. But she knew that since the strange God could save herself, he should be able to save others.

In response to Anna's plea, Dorothy sighed slightly and then said.

"I'm sorry, Anna. There are huge differences between gods. The Holy Mother who is not all-loving will not give gifts to mortals without restraint. She does not want her name to be spread too much at this time. I beg her to respond to your prayers. It is the limit of what I can do to bestow the gift on you."

With a hint of apology, Dorothy said to Anna that unlike Anna, the conditions of the other children were not simply damage by the drug, but also serious drug erosion. She could deal with the drug damage but not the others.

Hearing Dorothy's response, Anna couldn't help but lower her head in disappointment.

"Is that so... Thank you so much, Mr. Meshhos, for praying to God for a precious gift for me..." Although she was very disappointed, Anna still thanked Dorothy. Looking at Anna in front of her, Dorothy smiled slightly and continued speaking.

"However, this matter is not without hope. They can be saved without God's grace, and the opportunity for salvation lies in you now, Anna."

"I……"

Listening to Dorothy's words, Anna's expression showed confusion.

When the moon sets, day begins.

The night passed and Shandian Hospital welcomed the new day again. Doctors and nuns were walking around the corridors, busy with their work. Except for a little commotion caused by the cats and dogs that broke in last night, everything was no different from usual.

In front of the hospital gate, James, a middle-aged man in formal attire, with a mustache and a few strands of fringe in his hair, stood there, looking into the distance and checking his watch from time to time, as if he was waiting for something.

After a while, a carriage came from a distance and stopped in front of the hospital gate, in front of James. The coachman got out of the carriage, opened the door, and then a man got out.

The man was probably in his forties or fifties, wearing a suit and a top hat. He had short and thick limbs, a fat belly, and a face full of fat as he smoked a cigar. When he saw James in front of him, a fawning smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Oh... Mr. James, you're here so early. It's my fault that you let Mr. James wait first. I apologize to you here. I apologize."

Looking at James in front of him, the man took the cigar out of his mouth, bowed and said with a smile, his tone full of flattery. Looking at his performance, James also said with a smile.

"No need to apologize, Baron Harud. I just arrived early. You are always on time."

"Hahaha... This is an invitation from you, Mr. James. How can I not be punctual? To be honest, I have an advantage. That is, I will never be late for a party, even if I come to Igwinter." The man named Harud continued to speak to James with a smile, and James responded.

"Haha, I'm afraid you have some misunderstandings. I didn't bring you here for a party, but to show you something."
