Magical Index: Become a Girl and Come to Academy City

"Lidoviya? The person in front of me is Lidoviya! What should I do?"

Tianchuan Gong felt his body go cold and cold sweat broke out on his warm skin.

She recalled the information in the original work and remembered the existence of this person.

Lidovilla Lorenzietti is a genuine Roman Orthodox believer from the Vatican. She holds a high position, but she never cares about the status, fame or fortune.

In her opinion, missionary work and salvation are much more important than other things, so she would donate without hesitation even if it was something given to her by the Pope.

At the same time, she is also the manipulator of this incident. Orianna's plan to sneak into Academy City and use the "Apostle Cross" to control Academy City was all planned by her.

But even such a person who holds a high position in the Roman Orthodox Church cannot be connected with the nun mentioned above who was bullied by gangsters.

Tianchuan Palace made a mistake, and it was a big mistake.

The world of Toaru Majutsu no Index is a world, and the original work is the original work. If you observe this world from the perspective of the original work, you will ignore some dangers.

Lidvia did not appear many times in the original novel, and most of the time she was just a background character, so she ignored such a person, but she met him by coincidence.

She wanted to run away now, but if she left at this time, it would be equivalent to telling the other party that she was leaving because she was afraid after knowing her identity, which would definitely arouse the other party's suspicion.

Therefore, Tianchuan Palace had to pretend to be a passerby, have a brief exchange with an ordinary stranger, and then leave.

Lidovia seemed to have discovered something and glanced sideways: "What's wrong, Miss Tianchuan? Is there any problem?"

"Nothing... nothing." Tianchuan Gong shook his head, but the fleeting panic was still noticeable.

Lidoviya asked the question again: "What do you think of God's destruction of Sodom and Gomod?"

Tianchuan Gong took a deep breath. She only had a superficial understanding of these myths and legends. If she had known that she would ask these questions to test herself, she would have said that she knew nothing.

Fortunately, although she was only a half-baked reader, she had read some of it. The question that Lidvia asked was exactly the story in Genesis. Although Tianchuan Gong gave up after reading Genesis in the entire Bible, she still vaguely remembered the content of this story in her mind.

The general story is that Sodom and Gomodo are two legendary places where sin and evil are rampant. After learning of this, God planned to destroy these two cities.

But at that time, God had an agent on earth named Abraham. He advised, "If there were 50 good people in that city, would you kill those 50 good people in order to eliminate the bad people in this city?"

God made a promise: "If there are 50 good people in that city, then I will not do anything."

But Abraham asked, "What if five more good people are removed, and there are only 5 good people left? Will you still destroy the entire city?"

God conceded: "If there were only 45, I wouldn't do this either."

"What if there are only 30?" Abraham continued to ask.

This cycle repeats until there are 10.

Abraham's intention was very clear, which was to let every good person survive, but God's plan was that evil outweighed good, so he would destroy them all. However, because Abraham kept making concessions, in the end, God finally sent two angels.

After a long silence, Lidoviya still patiently waited for an answer.

Tianchuan Palace thought to himself that the most important thing at this moment was to escape from the other party, so he had to go along with her and choose one of the two positions of Abraham and God and give a vague answer.

So she said, "Well, maybe God is like a business owner. If a basket of oranges is rotten, there's no need to save a few good ones. After all, He is not a human being, and it's impossible for Him to consider the good and evil of a specific person from Abraham's perspective."

Although this answer was average, Lidvia still laughed after hearing it, and Tianchuan Palace breathed a sigh of relief. This kind of question does not need to be answered correctly, as long as it is almost right.

"This statement does have some truth to it, but it can be interpreted differently from different perspectives. Whether it's God or Abraham, their original intention was to provide two means to deal with evil and good."

Lidoviya agreed, but then changed the subject, "However, if it were me, I might choose a method other than these two."

Tianchuan Palace didn't say anything. While listening to Lidvia's words, he scooped up the chocolate mousse and put it in big mouthfuls.

"When dealing with the sinful city-state, Abraham's first thought was to redeem the good people, while God's first thought was to destroy the wicked. But in reality, neither can have the best of both worlds. Redeeming the good would mean letting the wicked go, while destroying the wicked would mean accidentally harming the good."

"So, what is the right thing to do?" Tianchuan Gong asked, wiping the corner of his mouth.

Lidoviya's face suddenly lit up with excitement as she passionately expounded on her point of view: "It's very simple. All we need to do is turn the bad guys into good guys. All we need to do is change the mindsets of the people in these two cities, turn them towards goodness, and turn them into good people. Then there will be no more bad guys, no more accidental harm to good people, and even no one will die or get hurt. This is a perfect and happy world."

As she spoke excitedly, her body leaned forward involuntarily, almost falling on the table. This sudden reaction made Tianchuan Gong a little timid, and she shrank back like a rabbit.

Tianchuan Gong swallowed the food in his mouth and calmed himself down: "That's why you tried to persuade those hooligans instead of resisting or teaching them a lesson."

"Yes, that's right. It seems you understand." Lidovia seemed happy to see that Tianchuan Palace understood her thoughts.

However, Tianchuan Palace said in embarrassment: "But this kind of thing is impossible to do. If you want to change others, you can't make them turn back."

"No, you can. The higher the goal, the greater the difficulty, and the greater the joy of success. It is because of this difficulty that saving them makes me happier. I believe you are such a person, otherwise you would not stand up for me." Lidoviya answered firmly.

"So, you're saying?"

"Yes, I intend to ask you and..."

Halfway through her words, Lidoviya suddenly froze as if she had sensed something.

Then she regained her composure and stood up politely: "Sorry, I have to excuse myself for a moment."
