Perhaps this is due to their unique appearance. Even though they have gradually forgotten their past and their abilities have declined, their innate appearance still makes them somewhat out of place in this world.
This is good news for the God of Light no matter how you look at it!
Therefore, He focused His attention entirely on people with Eastern faces.
If He is not capable enough, He seeks out those with greater abilities; if that still fails, He sets His sights on those at an even higher level.
—The choice between God and man is His decision after careful consideration.
Of course, facing a god and persuading him to come to this other world is not an easy task. The God of Light had not yet figured out what to do when Xu Ling appeared.
To be honest, the reason Xu Ling was chosen was purely because she was unlucky!
When the God of Light happened to need to find a human god, Xu Ling was sent to the Western world; when he happened to need a naive human god who was easy to persuade, well, Xu Ling fit the bill perfectly!
Therefore, for the God of Light, who else would he choose if not such a perfect candidate who had fallen from the sky?
Of course, the God of Light did not reveal the reason for choosing Xu Ling, but only explained why she had an Eastern face and why there was a chosen witch.
However... even though He didn't say it, Xu Ling still realized from the clues that her arrival in this other world was not without reason!
She used to think that she was chosen by someone reliable and that's why she was so unlucky to come into this world from her bed. Now it seems that things are not so simple!
"So, you chose me as the next candidate?" Xu Ling pointed to herself and couldn't help but ask.
As soon as he finished speaking, the God of Light visibly looked away guiltily.
Xu Ling: ······
Understood!
It's all His fault!
Immediately, Xu Ling clutched her chest in anguish, "Why did you do this?!"
Do you know that life without television and cell phones is practically unbearable?!
Faced with her questioning, the God of Light did not explain, but only apologized somewhat guiltily: "I'm sorry."
What she wants isn't just a perfunctory apology!
Xu Ling was speechless with despair, but still looked at the God of Light with hope: "Then can you send me back?"
Because of these words, the God of Light lowered his head and dared not meet her gaze.
At this moment, silence speaks louder than words; without saying a word, Xu Ling understood what it meant!
She was definitely daydreaming!
But thinking about it, it makes sense. If we could send her back, the reliable one would definitely be more useful than the God of Light. At least talking about technology is more scientific than talking about superstition!
By the way, speaking of this—ever since she arrived in this other world, she seems to have just resigned herself to her fate and never even thought of asking the reliable one to send her back!
I've decided. I'll tell Kaopu when I get back!
Having made up her mind, Xu Ling temporarily put this thought aside and turned her gaze back to the God of Light.
She asked, "Is Ruth with you?"
Since nothing else can solve the problem, let's find Ruth first!
The God of Light did not avoid the question; in fact, she was pleased that she had changed the subject and nodded, saying, "Yes."
Finally hearing the answer she wanted to hear, Xu Ling's eyes lit up instantly, and she immediately asked eagerly, "Then when will you give it back to me?"
"I--"
Just as Xu Ling was waiting expectantly for the God of Light to tell her, a flurry of footsteps suddenly came from afar, interrupting everything.
The God of Light immediately shut his mouth and then gave her an apologetic look.
The next second, before Xu Ling, who was still excited, could recover from his apologetic gaze, Miller's body went limp and he collapsed to the ground with a "thud".
Everything happened so fast that Xu Ling suddenly froze on the spot, watching helplessly as Miller stirred up the surrounding dust.
He... he just left like that?!
Finally realizing this, her anger began to rise steadily. "You—!"
"Sir, what's wrong?!"
However, before she could fully erupt, Alger's terrified scream suddenly rang in her ears.
Yes, screams!
A scream that was completely out of character for Alger!
Immediately afterwards, a figure rushed past her from behind, causing Xu Ling to stumble and fall to the ground.
"Sir, are you alright?"
Alger couldn't believe what he was seeing!
He had only left briefly to lead other students on the bishop's orders, so why was the usually aloof and immaculate Bishop Miller now lying on the ground covered in dust?
What incredibly dangerous event has occurred?!
It's fair to say that Alger's mind went completely blank the moment he saw Miller fall to the ground.
He didn't know what he had just done; he only knew that when he regained his memory, he was already scrambling to his feet, helping his Bishop Miller up.
Almost everyone was taken aback by Alger's actions, and they stood there blankly, completely at a loss.
It took a while for Xixi and the others to wake up and hurriedly help Xu Ling, who had fallen to the ground, up.
"What exactly happened?" Bian Fu asked Xu Ling in a low voice, trying to find out the reason.
Anyone could see that Assistant Coach Alger was completely out of sorts at that moment; it was absolutely shocking.
Of course, they also caught a glimpse of Bishop Miller's unusually unrefined appearance, which was, undeniably, terrifying!
As is well known, the Church of Light has always placed great emphasis on etiquette and manners. Although Miller did not actually care much about it, he was still subtly influenced by it to some extent.
He never appeared in such a disheveled state in public, unless he encountered a major problem that was difficult to deal with!
Before anyone knew it, Pedro and the others had also gathered around. However, they showed no concern whatsoever for Xu Ling, their eyes gleaming with gossip.
What earth-shattering thing has happened?!
Xu Ling looked up and immediately understood the meaning from the faces of the group.
Xu Ling: ······
She couldn't possibly tell them about the God of Light's descent just now, could she?
So she shook her head and managed to utter two words: "It's nothing."
Sisi and the others: ? ? ? ?
This sounds like they're just trying to fob them off!
But now is not a good time to get to the bottom of things.
Not far away, Alger had carefully helped Miller up and casually cast a cleaning spell on him, instantly restoring Miller's dusty and dirty appearance to its previous spotless state.
"My lord, are you alright?" Alger's concern for Miller was almost palpable, but when he turned to Xu Ling, his brows furrowed deeply, and his voice was extremely serious, "What exactly happened?!"
