REASONS BEHIND ACTIONS

"…Since you didn't know anything about the blessed child and how to use your healing power, I used that stone to prevent you from doing anything that will make your power go out of control," Saint Ava answered truthfully.

"So that's the reason…"

Veronica never thought Saint Ava cared so much about her responsibilities.

It left her feeling ashamed for running away from her duty as a blessed child.

Saint Ava continued, "If you knew you had tremendous power before you learned how to control it, your ignorance and arrogance could destroy your life and the world at the same time.

"However, when you were out of my range you had a strong urge to heal someone, you destroyed the stone and let the whole world know that you are the blessed child.

"And with the power you have now, you can go and come here as you please. You don't need to cut your arm for that."

Veronica abruptly stood up.

"What?! Did I cut my arm for no reason then?"
