Positive little sun, magical girl, I am awesome

Kenny nodded, "I've always thought you were a smart and studious kid, Lilith."

He sighed, "But look at this place, Lilith. You may know the history of Shelley Town better than I do. This place used to be just a remote post. It developed because your great-grandfather Mr. Shelley discovered the Shelley fruit in the forest and started the winemaking industry. There are no plans to build a middle school here in the short term. Most of the children will join the winery and start working as apprentices after graduating from elementary school."

"But you are different, Lilith. You are so smart. You should continue to study. No matter what you study, it is always a good thing to be able to study."

"If you don't join the church and go to the Capital High Court, you won't even have the chance to study." Kenny looked at Lilith's face, and seemed to be looking at someone else.

"I...but I don't want to leave Shelley Town, I don't want to leave Mary. Highgarden is too far away. I, I can teach myself! I am the legal heir of the Shelley Brewery. I can stay here and run the business left by my grandfather and mother..."

She even began to quickly think about how to use some modern knowledge to optimize the winemaking method, expand sales channels, etc.

Kenny sighed, "Lilith, you are a noble. If you hadn't joined the Church of Light, your parents would probably start planning a marriage for you soon."

Lilith's eyes widened immediately, as if her brain had been hit by a club. Oh no, she forgot that this was not her time. If she could not join the church, her parents would most likely arrange a marriage for her. After all, her cheap father did not treat her badly, and sent her food, clothing and other necessities on time every year.

Kenny looked at Lilith worriedly, "Lilith, your father, Viscount Friar..."

He didn't want to be too straightforward with the child, but everyone in Shelley Town could see Viscount Friar's disregard for her. How could a young lady from a noble family be left in a remote town and grow up without anyone paying attention to her?

Over the past decade, he has never seen Viscount Friar in Shelley Town. The Friar caravans transport wine back and forth every year, but no one has ever taken Lilith back to the Viscount's fiefdom to celebrate Hanukkah. This lord is really cruel...

Would such a heartless father seriously look for a good marriage for this girl? Teacher Kenny was very skeptical.

He continued to persuade her, "I understand your nervousness. It is normal for people to feel hesitant when faced with some choices at a fork in the road. It's just... going to High Court and becoming a priest may be your best way out."

“I have talked with Mr. Aldington. He believes that it is extremely rare to find a god-favored person as strong as you. You are a child favored by the God of Light.

As long as you can pass the priest's assessment, you will definitely be able to learn light magic and serve before God in the Supreme Temple. Even if you cannot become a high priest or a saint in the end...

You have been bathed in holy light for many years, and your status is pure and noble. Even without your father, you can find a good marriage in Highgarden, maybe a noble, maybe a Knight of Light... Can you understand, Lilith?" Teacher Kenny patiently persuaded the nervous child, trying to analyze the pros and cons for him.

Magic? Lilith yearned for a second, then quickly shook her head. What magic are you still thinking about, Lilith? Before you learned magic, you might have been treated as a heretic by the people of the Church of Light and put on the grill. And your glowing ability is gone!

"The High Court is far from here. By the time the priests arrive, you will probably be on summer vacation. I believe you can adjust your mentality during this time." Kenny patted the little girl's head comfortingly. "Relax, Lilith."

Seeing that Teacher Kenny had no other solutions or suggestions, Lilith sighed deeply inwardly, nodded randomly, and left the corridor.

"Lilith! Come here--" Walking back into the sunlight, Woody called her again.

"We are going to play a war game. You come and bless the warriors." Woody waved his precious branch excitedly, rubbing his hands. "Just like before, you are the saint and I am your knight." He placed the branch sword between his brows, "Please pray for me, Saint. I will protect your safety." Woody's acting became more and more realistic.

Lilith opened her mouth, moved her hands in vain and then put them down. She knew that she could no longer make a small ball of light to amuse everyone and complete the mysterious ritual before the game started as before.

"...The Saint doesn't actually need guards, Woody, and the Knights shouldn't pledge allegiance to the Saint."

"...and I never wanted to be a saint." Lilith was overwhelmed by the huge confusion and fear in her chest, and she became more and more depressed. She walked past Woody and headed out of the campus.

"Huh? Why?" The innocent Woody didn't realize that Lilith was in a bad mood at all, and still chased her to chat.

"But didn't we agree on this before? You become the Saint, and I become the Knight of Light, so that we can always play together."

"...Because the Saint sounds like a white moonlight female supporting role who is going to be sacrificed. She will die too easily. It's not suitable for a passerby like me who just wants to survive." Lilith gave up on herself and began to talk nonsense.

Woody blinked, feeling that he understood every word, but also didn't understand every word. "You said something strange again, Lilith, but since you are the best among us, what you said must be right." The little boy was full of trust and admiration for Lilith.

...Lilith looked at the carefree boy in front of her and felt a little envious. She even thought that it would be better if she didn't remember the memories of her past life.

"I don't want to play the saint today." Lilith took the branch from Woody.

"I want to be a knight, too."
