"So Theon, what type of person are you?"
Hearing Anna's question, Xion, who was still speaking just now, stopped.
It could be seen from his reaction that he didn't want to bring it up, but Aki didn't interrupt.
"Acquired. A lot happens when you're five."
"...Really? I understand. Let's go to the next one."
To him, it was a vague explanation, but neither Anna nor Ajit dug into it.
Although there was some inference from Theon's behavior that he would escape even if he dug deeper, but one would have guessed it when he was five years old.
He was five years old, about ten years ago—right around the time he was involved in a terrorist attack and lost his parents.
Theon looked at Akit and Anna who were silent with a slightly surprised look, and then started the conversation again.
"Other than having divinity, he is almost indistinguishable from humans. If he is just a son of God, his magical power will also vary from person to person."
"In other words, this is no different from gods outside of humans."
"Yeah, basically that's it...only the Son of God has a special characteristic."
"Specificity?"
In response to Anna's question, Xion nodded.
"The Son of God will have special powers and properties that are different from magic."
"That means it has inherent special abilities, okay?"
"Yes, it is said that a special thing that cannot be reproduced by other gods has awakened."
"Why only the Son of God?"
"Don't know? We don't know either."
Theon shrugged helplessly and took a sip of milky coffee.
"It seems that some people want to explain it clearly, but the result is still unclear, leaving only some legends."
"What is the legend?"
"Say 'a blessing from the world'."
“Blessings from the world.”
This is a very abstract and legendary statement, but it really doesn't solve any problem.
"Originally, humans have very weak magic power, and they are the least likely to have supernatural powers." The reason why such a person can miraculously acquire divinity must be because he is a hoped-for and blessed existence in the world. "
“Not a god, but a gift from the world?”
"I don't feel that way at all."
After listening to Anna's words, Xion said dissatisfiedly and roughly stuffed the remaining snacks into his mouth.
"...Ah, that's it. Since you are the Son of God, you have this special ability."
And Theon, who can be said to be a person involved in it in a sense, at least has no real sense of the idea of blessing the world.
And judging from the current reaction——
"Istar, don't you like your abilities?"
You can feel this meaning from Xion's current reaction.
Is it because blessings are not a good thing for me that I cannot accept them?
"...I think it's not good for a place like this to be too sensitive."
"Are you right?"
Theon, whose mood dropped significantly, put the biscuit into his mouth again, made a "gurgling" sound, and chewed the biscuit.
"My personality as the Son of God... can be said to be the best compatibility."
"Compatibility is not an external part..."
"No matter what kind of alien or human being he faces, he can give magic power without rejection, or accept magic power in return... The sky that accepts both good and evil is called 'Celestial Son'."
"So, who named you?"
"I am my teacher. The Son of God is named according to his abilities."
Theon ended the conversation with that, but seemed unhappy and kept scratching his head.
"Do you hate this kind of power that much?"
"I don't like it...it's very inconvenient to use. To be honest, I don't know much about it myself. Please ask Madam for specific details next time."
The handling is too rough to comment on.
I originally thought that Xion didn't understand it himself, so how could he explain it to others, but Miranda always felt that there was a way.
"You know her better than me. Madam is indeed an amazing person..."
"Well, that person is also like the person involved..."
"What's the meaning?"
"But Madam is also a son of God."
Xion replied nonchalantly, and Ajit and Anna froze.
"Although the 'Witch of the Beginning' is more famous now, the 'Child of Time' is Madam."
"The nature of 'immortality' is that of the Son of Time. It's easy to understand. It's great." Theon said with a hint of envy. Anna stood up unsteadily.
“Don’t ignore this explosive statement!”
Anna's fist lashed out, and Theon's screams echoed through the room.
Time passed between Anna's visit to the special lecture on society outside the home, and it was already late at night.
Although he was shocked by the identity of Xion, the Son of God, nothing could change immediately.
Although it was necessary to report this to his superiors, it was known from the past that Theon had great power.
Although it cannot be said that the understanding of the upper levels will not change, the cooperative relationship between the human army and Theon should not be subverted immediately.
Theon had been in bed getting ready for sleep an hour ago, while Ajit was sorting out a report to his superiors.
The only sound in the quiet room was Xiaojing's typing on the keyboard.
"……captain."
Xion suddenly called Ajit.
Xion, who usually fell asleep within a few minutes as long as he lay down, was still awake. This made him simply surprised, and his reaction was slightly delayed.
"What's wrong?...Are you feeling unwell?"
Theon fell asleep while Ajit continued working, a situation that was not unusual and did not interfere with his sleep.
Ajit wondered if that was the case, but he didn't give a definite answer.
Not only that, Xion was lying on the bed with his back to Ajit, his expression and appearance could not be confirmed.
"It's not a big deal, I just care a little."
"What's wrong?"
Faced with Ajit's questioning, Xion, who had always turned his back to him and continued to speak, remained silent for a moment.
"How should I put it? What did you think after hearing what I said?"
The question I finally asked was really ambiguous.
"what happened?"
"How about it? I want to ask the captain what he thinks."
Ajit had doubts while thinking about the question from Xion.
What I said should be about the topic I mentioned during the day about who Theon is.
If someone asks Xiaojing what she thinks after hearing this...
"Maybe a little happy."
"...I am the Son of God?"
"No, it's what you told me."
For Theon, the human army is an opponent that cannot be trusted, and this must not have changed to this day.
Telling one's true identity to such a person is an act that can only do bad things.
There was no way Theon didn't understand this.
Despite this, Theon answered Ajit's question honestly.
If the other party is Aki who doesn't know anything, there should be a way to deceive him. If he tells Aki, it will be communicated to his superiors no matter what. Xion should be very clear about this.
"It's only bad for you, but you still told me, and I'm glad to know how much you trust me."
Ignorant, powerless, and pathetic Ajid who can't even rely on Xion, he still believes it to some extent. It was pure joy.
"..."
"Are you not satisfied with this answer?"
Xion, who had no reaction to Ajid's answer, finally turned around slowly.
"No complaints, just a little bit more than I expected."
"Really? That's good."
He takes the initiative to create barriers and distance himself, and feels self-conscious that he has lost his way.
In such a situation where Theon finally opened his heart to him, Akid did not want to fail because of the wrong choice. This was his true thought.
Luckily, that doesn't seem to be the case, but the taciturn Theon's demeanor is so different than usual and, honestly, outrageous.
"Captain, I may trust you more than the Captain thinks."
Theon's words echoed in the quiet room.
"He never discriminated against me because I was a 'magician' from the beginning. He listened to me attentively and apologized to me as a matter of course... He was so nice, I thought he was a bit difficult to deal with."
"...It really hurts to be told that you're not good at it."
"I'm talking about the first half."
Theon smiled slightly, more gently than usual.
