[Blurb]

"God, why won't you look at me, just once?"

"Why won't you save me?"

Using the weapon Maria, the Goddess of Light, had given him, the least favored of her divine children stabbed her viciously in the heart.

From then on, she was no longer the supreme Goddess of Light. She was a bird with broken wings, trapped in a cage.

At the time, Maria hated him.

Because she had no idea what she had done wrong. She hadn't even remembered his name.

But many years later, she discovered that this divine child was no one else. He was her: her other half, another self she had never uncovered.

You are me, and I am you.

We are so alike, yet completely opposite.

"Maria, everyone in the world basks in the blessings of your holy light. But have you ever wondered who bears the shadows behind that light for you?"

"You are the kindest, and the cruelest, god in this world."

"Your divinity lets you love anyone without reason: young men, the elderly, children..."

"And so, in the end, no one can have your true love."

But you have to love me.

A hateful, sharp-tongued, cunning, selfish hypocrite.

Alima kissed her lips.

Admit it.

You have no choice.

An indifferent god × a fanatical divine child (devotee)
