"Are you sure you want me to swallow the two of these?"

Anne Aldrich Augen looked at the [Ring of Protection] and [Ring of Blessing] in Kieran's hand. Her delicate face was showing reluctance that she didn't bother to cover up at all.

"Unless you are willing to believe the Saint Relic Association or willing to once again become the fish on the cutting board, allowing others to slice you at will."

Kieran put the two rings in Anne Aldrich Augen's hand.

"I don't want to!"

Anne Aldrich Augen shook her head hard and opened her mouth, swallowed both the rings down her stomach. Then, she took a deep breath and said, "This is the most special thing that I ever swallowed in my entire life! Now, tell me how should I do it so that I won't kill myself? And you are sure you can save me in time?"
