Rona Merah, a girl who believes that she is just an ordinary girl, is chosen as one of the millions of Saint candidates just when she is about to declare her love for the man she like. The timing was terrible, but she felt the urge to believe that she had to do what System told her to do when she remembered a nightmare she had when she was 5 years old. She only wants love, but System says that she must become a Saint who guides humanity in order to avoid the destruction of the world. What should Rona do? *** -Cover is mine.
Ever since I was a child, I have always felt worried about something.
I felt as if I had to do something, but I didn't know what to do.
When I looked at the happy faces of my parents, I felt uneasy.
When I looked at my friends' faces, I felt uneasy.
When I stared at the peaceful view of the city, I felt uneasy.
It is as if..
... They will disappear from my life.
Then, one day, when I was 5 years old, I had a dream.
Dreams about destruction and death.
End of the world.
A very gloomy and creepy dream.
I cried as hard as I could when I woke up.
Mom and Dad hugged me tightly and told me that everything would be fine, but the dream kept sticking tightly in my head.
It is like a shadow that will never leave the light.
***
I... Feeling so nervous!
"Urgh... What should I do?"
Leaning against the wall of the high school building where she went to school, a beautiful girl with black shoulder-length hair held her flushed cheeks.
She looked around as if she was waiting for someone.
It's tragic. A beautiful girl like her seemed to have to accept the agony of such an endless and uncertain wait.
Eh, wait, that girl is me!
-Rona Merah, 17 years old, single.
-Currently waiting for the man she likes to come to this place and... Declare her love!
It didn't take long before I heard footsteps approaching.
Stabilizing my condition and calming down, I turned around.
He really came!
I'm starting to feel embarrassed!
"Rona? What's wrong? Your friend told me to come here..."
There, stood a man with glasses.
Him is about 168 cm tall. He was neither handsome nor ugly. Him is normal-level, I guess.
However, he is... He is... Uh...!
"Hm?"
The man tilted his head slightly as if waiting for my answer.
-Aldrian, 17 years old, single.
-This man is Rona's childhood friend, as well as her first love!
Taking a breath, I dared myself to look directly at Aldrian.
"Al!"
"?"
I can hear and feel it.
How noisy my heartbeat was.
How hot my face was.
I felt like I was going to faint.
But... I have to say it.
My feelings!
"I... I...!"
Alright, now!
Say it, Rona!
You can do it!
You, can, do it!
"Actually, I..."
[To all 'Spesial pure-hearted' women in the world...]
[Congratulations!]
[You're chosen to be one of millions Saint Candidates!]
I didn't realize it at the time.
I could never even imagine that the dream I saw when I was young was, actually, not just an ordinary nightmare.
At that time, I was just an ordinary girl who was trying to express her love.
She was unaware of anything about the great destiny that awaited her at all.
[... Saint Quest: You're candidate.]
[Start!]
Everything happened in an instant.
Just a little more.
Even though it only took me a little time and courage to express this feeling.
However, time, as expected, did not wait for anyone.
When I was about to say it, the scene in front of me changed completely.
A strange transparent panel appeared right in my face, while Aldrian and the peaceful school environment were replaced by a scene of destruction.
"W-what..."
What happened?
Why is everything filled with debris and craters?
Why are there so many bodies?
Why does the sky get dark?
What is things shining in the sky?
My mind was blank.
Everything happened very quickly.
The scene only lasted for a few seconds, but, like the nightmare I had when I was 5 years old, it became a shadow that I will never forget for the rest of my life.
***
I remember.
On that day, on what was supposed to be the day I declared my love and may be... Become his lover, I screamed like crazy, and then fell unconscious.
"This is unfair!"
I cried in my room.
"Why... Why it have to be happen in front of him...!"
I beat the pillow that was drenched in tears.
"And what the hell is this transparent thing!"
I intended to hit the transparent panel that appeared in front of my face, but my fist just passed through it.
I didn't even feel the sensation of touching something.
After complaining for a while, I wipe my tears with a tissue.
"But that horrible sight... Is it real, or..."
Hugging another pillow that hadn't been soaked yet, I checked the transparent panel.
There it is written:
[Saint Quest: You're Candidate.]
[Explanation: You have been selected to be one of the millions of candidates who will become 195 Saints who will guide Humanity to prevent the destruction of the world. Within a period of 1 month, some small quests will be given to you as part of a test to test whether you are truly suitable to become a Saint or not.]
[Candidate name: Rona Merah.]
[Pure love: Possessed.]
[Saint Compatibility: 13%(Will increase or decrease after the Assessment quest).]
I tried to touch the panel once more.
As expected. My fingers pierced the panel easily.
"This is real...? Is this really not a Prank or something?"
Lately, there have been a lot of novels about weird systems and so on.
Do I become like the main character in those Novels?
Also... Assessment quest.
It seems like I'm going to be told to do something from now on?
It's really not a joke.
Just now, I embarrassed myself in front of the man I liked, you know! Do you really believe that I would dare to go out of my house in conditions like this?
At that moment, an idea crossed my mind.
"That's right. Aren't there many Saint candidates? It is said that there are millions of them. Even without me, they should be fine, right?"
In that case, it is decided!
I'm going to laze around at home and comfort my broken heart!
I don't even dare to set foot in school right now. How could I possibly care about strange things like Saints and so on?
I better sleep!
"Ah, but before that..."
Well... Uhum! Watching some romantic dramas should be okay, right?
I need a sweetener to warm my heart!
***
That night, Rona had a dream.
A dream that felt very strange and real.
In her dream, Rona stood in the podium and spoke in front of hundreds of thousands of people.
She spoke in a very firm and dignified voice.
"I am a Saint."
"I am the hope of Humanity."
"I am the guiding figure of the Braves who will take up their weapons against The Evil."
"In front of you, I,Saint Rona Merah, promise to protect you, prevent the destruction of the world, and reclaim our respective homelands that have fallen into the hands of The Evil and its subordinates!"
