Chapter 297: Sera's Resolve

*Knock!*

*Knock!*

"Mhmm?" Nathan rubbed his eyes, getting woken up by the noise. He glanced to the side, finding Selena still sleeping.

So, he rose from the bed and walked to the door. When he opened the door, he was greeted by Sera.

She was wearing a white gown as if she were about to sleep, but her slightly red eyes showed that she hadn't slept this whole time.

Still, her serious expression made him realize what she wanted to talk about.

Nathan glanced at Selena. Since she didn't wake up, he left the room and closed the door quietly, making sure she didn't wake up. Little did he know, Selena was fully awake. Her gaze was cold. When Nathan left, she just covered her entire body with the bedsheet.

Meanwhile, Nathan and Sera walked quietly to another room.

Sera's face had been serious this whole time, making him wonder what things she wanted to say.

Nathan sat down in front of her while crossing his arms. "So, what do you want to talk about?"

Sera took a deep breath. "I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep."

"Just cut to the chase." Nathan shook his head.

Sera smiled wryly. She looked Nathan in the eyes and said, "I am a gullible person. If they say I'm a good person, I might believe it. If they say you're a good person, I will believe it.

"All the claims or even the plans they think are the best… I have always listened to them. And I might end up with this condition forever.

"When I summoned the fallen angel, my world fell apart. But after summoning Brunhild, I could see a different meaning of myself.

"It might not be because I was frustrated or tired that I summoned the fallen angel. It was probably because I was a gullible person that both the angel and the devil whisper to me about what I should do."

Sera clenched her hands into fists. "However, I don't think this is bad. It's true that I might easily trust others, but because of it, I'm able to meet my teacher. I'm also with you right now.

"It's just… I don't know what I should do… It's probably because I'm empty inside that I'm unable to do anything or think for myself.

"However, your words have made me realize something." Sera stood up. "I think it's fine to trust people in this world. I don't mean all people, but only some selected people. Those who I can trust with my life.

"Instead of trusting everyone as their words turn into poison inside me, I'd rather to listen only to some people.

"From my teacher, I have realized the importance of my goal. And how it has never changed, even if I summon anything.

"That's why I will keep pursuing my goal, which is to put food on the table for as many people as possible. Experience more on m-v|l e'-NovelBin.net

"To achieve such a thing, a normal means is definitely not possible. That's why, from this point onward, I think about summoning another demon!

"In this world, there are always good and bad things. Bad things can happen to good people. Good things can happen to bad people.

"If there is a light, there is also darkness. Hence, I believe I will become the balance of everything.

"I have summoned a servant of a god as my third familiar. In that case, I will summon something that opposes it to balance their opinion.

"And just like my familiars, I need someone to balance my own opinion. I know that I'm brimming with positivity. That becomes the very reason I will always be naive. My decision will definitely lead to my destruction at some point.

"I need someone who can counter my opinion, someone who can become a necessary evil in my life, someone who will protect me even if it means becoming a demon in my life."

Sera took a deep breath and looked at him in the eyes. "And I believe you are suitable to be that person, Nathan."

Nathan raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Did you just call me a demon?"

"Ah!" Sera scratched the back of her head. "That's just an analogy. I will probably continue moving on with my pure belief. Meanwhile, you do things rationally, even if it means going against that belief. That's why I want to join your group.

"I promise I won't go against Selena. No, I won't even say anything about your thought about family as long as you have the capability. It means I'm also one step closer to my goal.

"I am ready to learn anything, so please…" Sera lowered her head.

"What makes you think I'm the most suitable person? There are other people who might be more suitable than me. In fact, you can probably find that kind of person as long as you ask for it with your status."

"It's a bit embarrassing, but the time we spent in that desert… has given me the answer to your question." Sera smiled.

Nathan rubbed his chin, falling into deep thought.

"I also don't need resources. All the rewards from the mission can be given to you and Selena. I can always ask for resources from the Holy Kingdom."

If he thought about it rationally, the calculation would be a mess if he had to take care of Sera while their income didn't increase. After all, they had to split the cores into three.

Still, having someone who could boost his ability like Anubis would be an excellent addition to the group.

"Will you really do anything? Even if it means I ask you to strip right now?"

"Yes." Sera grabbed her gown.

"Oi! I'm not ordering you or anything right now."

"As I said previously, I'm gullible and a bit dumb. Even if you tell me about your plan, I might not understand half of it. That's why I will just do everything you tell me to, because I will trust you."

Nathan pinched the bridge of his nose. It wasn't a perfect answer, but he could see her resolve. "I will test you a bit. Since we have nothing to do right now, I will accept you into our group for one month. But you're going to learn a lot, you understand?"

Sera's face brightened as she made a big smile. "Yes!"

Unbeknownst to them, Selena was actually standing behind a wall, listening to their conversation. Her expression didn't change, but instead of interfering, Selena just walked away.
