To Edward

The Goddess who usually would give her space and let her process things interfered.

"Come on, now. This isn't the time for self-pity. This is the time for you to take action. You worked so hard till now... Building connections, exposing crimes and you put your life in danger to get into the ruins! You are now rewarded with powers. Time to make use of them."

The Goddess spoke with pride. She was indeed proud of how far the child she stalked had come. If there's anything she admired about her, it was her blind determination. The entire world could be telling her that she sucked but she would keep on going!

The Goddess immediately stopped in her tracks, I wanted to praise her, but why does it sound like an insult?

Adeline made her decision. She couldn't keep this to herself, and she certainly couldn't stage a robbery now. Taking a deep breath, she left the study and began waking the household. The servants who woke up were very confused.
