“......”

In ‍​‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍the end they still smashed open the fountain pool，and a group of young nuns worked frantically together to rescue the black bear whose mouth alone had been submerged in the water yet had nearly drowned，it collapsed on the ground whimpering into a 600-kilogram pile of aggrieved child.

A ‍​‌​​‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍female instructor among the Royal Magic Academy group sneered：‘Hmph~destroying academy facilities for an animal，I truly wonder how your school educates its students。’

Claudia calmly retorted：“Buildings are dead，animals are alive。Acting according to the urgency of the situation to save a living being and then restoring an inanimate object afterward presents no problem，this world inherently has a place for them too。”

‘Your school squanders resources like this，presumably everyone throughout the Alliance lives in abundance and there are no impoverished people left~Yet ordinary people across the Continent are suffering from the ravages of war，without enough food to fill their stomachs and with corpses of the starved covering the land，I wonder what they would think if they saw this scene。’

‘I’ve seen your Alliance’s propaganda brochures，you practically advertise yourselves as Heaven on Earth，truly meeting you in person falls short of your reputation。’

Faced with the other party’s mockery Claudia’s expression remained unchanged，she merely bent down and picked up a gray tabby cat passing by，the other party obediently retracted its sharp claws and curled up in Claudia’s arms。

She asked back somewhat puzzled：“Animals may be weak，but they too know hunger and pain，does suffering also come in greater and lesser degrees？If one does not even accumulate small acts of kindness before one’s eyes，how could one perform great acts of kindness？”

Extending a fair jade-like hand to gently stroke the tabby cat’s furry head，the other party comfortably narrowed its animal eyes，and a gentle smile appeared in Claudia’s eyes：

“Even if one possesses only meager strength and picks up a stranded little fish to throw it back into the sea，that still saves a small living being，others may not care whether the weak little thing lives or dies，but it and the person who saved it care and that is enough。Kindness has no distinction of great or small，all living beings are equal，act according to one’s heart，and having no cause for shame before one’s own heart is enough。”

“There are many impoverished people among the people of the Continent and the Alliance，but I believe，if everyone performs the small acts of kindness before them and passes them onward，eventually they will benefit every single person。”

Whether professional Doctors or teaching nuns with Medical capabilities，at their core both were professions that carried a certain degree of devotion，the four words saving the dying and healing the wounded were not something that could be accomplished merely by shouting slogans。

Compared with Doctors who required the support of an entire system，Clergy such as nuns and priests possessed enormous autonomy，they could choose whether to save someone or not，whether to do their utmost or be perfunctory，whether to save the powerful and abandon the weak or treat everyone equally。

To the people of the Main Continent their actions were an enormous waste，because animals would not provide any equivalent return，making it far less valuable than saving people，but was that truly the case？

Seeing the greater through the smaller，if this system of equivalent exchange held true，then humans were greater than animals，wouldn’t what followed be the healthy being greater than the sick and weak，and the powerful and noble being greater than ordinary people？

How ridiculous，you see a fish as weak，but within the boundless social system of humanity are you truly any stronger than that fish？You care about your own little life，but do other people necessarily care？

Perhaps these young girls earnestly scrambling around to treat the fat bear before them seemed rather foolish，but when the day truly came that one had to entrust one’s life to someone，they might also be the only people who would not abandon you。

Afterward no matter how sarcastically the female instructor spoke，Claudia maintained a faint smile on her face，not taking the other party’s arguments to heart in the slightest，they were not people walking the same path，so naturally the other party’s chatter did not matter，which instead infuriated the other party half to death。

The students of the Royal Magic Academy looked at the female instructor with somewhat strange and disapproving gazes。

Truthfully they had not particularly approved of or understood the overflowing empathy of Saint Tia’s students at first either，but thinking about it again，the other side was freaking a Nun Academy，so this was actually what should be normal。

How could a nun capable of empathizing with weak lives not possess even greater tolerance toward ordinary people，no one could guarantee they would remain powerful forever，and these nuns might instead be the final harbor they could rely upon。

However when they saw the Battle Nuns of the academy’s Combat Department，they immediately took back most of their previous impression that Saint Tia Academy’s students were naive sweethearts。

They were likewise Level 5 Mages，yet the combat system of the Battle Nuns wearing White Cross Emblems was completely different from theirs，what they freaking played at was close combat！

At the start after both sides finished giving the Mage Salute，before they could even finish chanting their Magic Incantations，the girl on the other side wearing a skintight Nun’s Habit was already shouting strange words like ‘Holy Light’‘Glory’‘Sacrifice’ as she fanatically charged right into their faces，within seconds stabbing through their heart、liver、spleen、lungs and kidneys。

Although at first they could not break through their Magic Barriers，the places they attacked were genuinely horrifying，every strike was aimed to kill，no matter which organ got stabbed through it would be a huge disaster。

Claudia however said there was nothing to worry about，inside Saint Tia Academy even if the King of the Underworld demanded that you die at the third watch they could drag it out until the fifth watch，besides it was only a stabbed kidney，what was the big deal，the human body had two of them。

After absorbing part of the theories of the Modern Medical System，traditional professions such as nuns also had to study Anatomy and understand the structure of the human body，after all only then could they better save others。

But precisely because of this，after becoming intimately familiar with the vulnerable parts of the human body they naturally specialized in stabbing at weak points，it was an occupational habit。

After finally encountering a seemingly harmless Battle Nun carrying a gun and fighting at medium-to-long range，in order to regain face，they sent out a Level 8 senior with Dragon bloodline hoping to secure their first victory...

【I praise the power of Holy Light，and give thanks for its gift...】

A blood-red Cross Inscription faintly lit up on the girl’s forehead，and in the empty air before the muzzle of her SVD Semi-automatic Sniper Rifle a screen of Inscription Light suddenly illuminated，several circular rings decreasing from large to small，layering themselves one after another before the muzzle。

【At the end of the long road lies its burial ground，send down Holy Light，illuminate the darkness hidden within lies！】

Under the horrified gaze of the partially dragon-transformed senior，the moment a Silver-plated Bullet fired from the other party’s muzzle touched the Inscriptions its casing abruptly split apart，revealing an Arrow Projectile wrapped within，silently piercing through his Reinforced Barrier and embedding itself in the arm he had raised to block。

‘Crack’

“Boom~！”

A figure flew outward，only after the attack struck did the booming sound of an Airburst arrive，blowing the corners of the surrounding spectators’ clothes into the air。

“Awooo！！！”

The senior rolled around on the ground clutching his arm，the arm covered in dense fine Dragon Scales had caved inward at an unnatural angle，with most of the arrowhead embedded inside。

‘Click click...’

The Battle Nun who had attacked him worked the bolt and ejected the cartridge case，then raised the rifle once again and aimed at the fellow lying on the ground。

“Wait！”

Without the slightest hesitation her finger pressed down，and another Silver-plated Bullet left the chamber in the same manner，completed its transformation and silently shot toward the other party at tremendous speed。

However this time it was blocked by someone else，precisely the female instructor who had spoken rudely to Claudia，the other party glared at the Nun who had fired：“Didn’t I tell you to stop！”

The Nun lowered her firearm and carefully began inspecting it，casually replying at the same time：“You？What the hell are you。”
