I must save the world, but I can't kill anyone.

As one of the angels tasked with saving the countless worlds, Savine took her job very seriously. She was diligent and thorough, and made sure to make herself the perfect example to strive for. But as time passed and as she witnessed the horrors humanity was capable of, her thoughts changed. 'Humans don't deserve the grace of us angels. As long as they're pious and peaceful in the end, the means don't matter.' Thus, whenever she went to a new world, she chose to save it in the quickest manner possible. She killed all the heretics and brainwashed the remaining people to always be faithful to God and to never act destructively towards themselves and the planet they stayed on. However, when she was about to go to another world to save it, God's Oracle enforced a few conditions on her. "No killing, no violence, no threats. Save the world the right way." Savine was then abruptly sent to the new world with all these conditions attached to her, but not only that, she found herself in the body of a 12-year-old girl from the lower cities. It was a far cry from the bodies of High-emperors, multitrillionaires, and the Supreme Magi that she normally took over. With the game stacked against her, what will Savine do? *** Arworks Illustrator: LAM Twitter: https://twitter.com/ramdayo1122?s=09 Pixiv: https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/17429 Website: https://lam-illust.com/

Hypocrisy

Murkato paused. 

'What is the worth of a million lives?'

"And I'm not asking in general," Savine continued. "I'm asking you. What… value does a million lives have for you? What does it mean for you?"

"…"

For some reason, Murkato's brain stopped working. For some reason, the way Savine worded it made it very hard to find an acceptable way of answering the question.

The worth of a million lives. In general, it was an easy thing to say. It was almost a country. All of these lives and humans made it possible for a country to exist. For it to stay powerful and relevant. 

But for Murkato personally, what did it mean? She really couldn't say that she saw them as that important. As important as a country and all its might… No, it was definitely not that. But at the same time, Murkato couldn't say that they meant nothing to her. 

She couldn't be that heartless, could she?
