"Lord Felix... is this really necessary?" asked Heloise, visibly hesitant.
"Yes, during the 'Karmic Imprint Purification Ritual,' the sinner must confess their transgressions to the Benevolent Deity," replied Felix.
"But... the tigermen race's weakness... cannot be exposed to others..."
"Don't worry, the 'Benevolent Deity' and its 'messenger' are not 'people'. Our existence is on a different dimension from yours."
"Alright... then... Lord Nefarious Tiger King, please understand... this is a necessary compromise under the circumstances..."
"Heloise, if it makes you feel better, you can turn your back towards me."
"Mm, okay..."
With great reluctance, Heloise removed her top, her heart pounding furiously.
She had never exposed her body in front of others since her childhood.
"Good, next, drink this."
"What is this...?"
"It's a divine elixir that will help you cleanse your karmic imprint more thoroughly."
