PAID Chapter 173
Aria's words barely registered in my mind. All of my senses were fixated on the divine power that emanated from her hands.
It was a radiance that could overshadow even the sun, comparable to Rosaria, who had been personally chosen as a saint by the Goddess herself.
"How...?"
"I just told you, didn't I? This is our destiny."
Aria smiled brightly.
"I received it when the divine power that had disappeared with the Saintess’s miracle returned. Until now, I had no choice but to hide it. I’m sorry, even to Leona. I didn’t know why I had awakened this divine power. But as soon as I heard that Mira was leaving for the Demon God’s domain, I realized it. I was given this power to help you, Mira. Because that’s how it’s supposed to be. It’s our fate."
If the divine power returned at the time of the Saintess's miracle, it must have been after I used the Holy Lance to perform a miracle for Rosaria to prevent further chaos.
The other priests still don’t even know why they regained their powers, and now Aria has also awakened her divine power? A power that might even rival Rosaria’s?
'Why?'
Aria had been living an ordinary academy life compared to the original story. While Leona had completed her awakening and was making great strides as a hero, Aria had not.
Most of the events that should have occurred in the original were dealt with by me beforehand, which prevented the destruction of Velium Academy and the death of Laura.
Crucially, Rosaria had taken a path completely opposite to the original, so the Goddess had no reason to take an interest in Aria as the next Saintess. So how did this happen?
'Is it because she's the protagonist?'
Because Aria is the protagonist of the novel that forms the foundation of this world, did she naturally have this 'destiny'?
"You look extremely surprised, Mira."
Aria, who had come right up to me, smiled softly.
"I understand. I was really surprised when I first manifested the divine power. But not anymore. I won't be surprised or hesitate again. I know what I have to do now."
She took another step closer, closing the already narrow distance between us.
