There once was a village by the sea where the villagers suffered from tsunami. Despite this fact, the villagers were reluctant to leave, as lived off the sea. They prayed to god to bring them peace. In return, god granted them a boy with a unique ability. He could foresee the future. From when a butterfly would fly through the window, to when a tsunami would strike the village. He used his ability to guide the villagers to avoid total destruction. Hence, the villagers treated him with great respect. And everyone lived a peaceful life.

No one blamed the boy the first time he was wrong. They all just smiled and walked away. But after more and more inaccurate predictions, the villagers started to blame and even beat the boy. Bruises and wounds started to appear on the boy. In fear of punishment, the boy was forced to keep predicting the future but with more and more inaccuracies. One day, someone proposed a suggestion, that the villagers should abandon the boy since he had lost his ability, and offer him to the god of sea hoping to appease the disaster. The villagers all turned down the proposition the first time they heard it. But fewer and fewer villagers opposed the suggestion when it was brought up again and again. In the end, no one was willing to oppose the suggestion, and everyone agreed.

The boy, with bruises and wounds all over his body, sobbing, walked into the endless night, into the cold sea in front of all the villagers. The moment he was consumed by the sea, a towering wave emerged, devouring the whole village and every villager. Foolish humans, don’t you know the heavy price for blaspheming a gift from god? It would be better if god were not so kind to humans, to just control them by force. Oh, that poor innocent boy. A little hypocritical kindness has made him grow feelings toward the humans. His feelings have impaired his decisions and cost him greatly. The innocent boy was gone forever that night. Yes... The water is chilling to the bones... I have no desire to feel it again.

Unlocks the skill-casting effect Scourge: Judgment.

For humans, emotions may be beautiful and filled with power. But I have shown them through my personal experience that gods cannot let emotions cloud their judgments. Otherwise, tragedy is inevitable.

However, neither "she" nor "he" listened.

After I left the human world, I began observing them. Not because I had any schemes in mind, nor because I took joy in observing them, I merely think that it is the responsibility of the gods to do so.

The village by the sea that sacrificed the child had already been devoured by the tsunami. The people who rebuilt their homes on this land are totally different.

Biography 4

Unlocked by obtaining Susabi's Golden Shrine skin.

My father is an official of the Department of Divinities. He's been telling me stories of the gods ever since my childhood.

Lady Miketsu is a benevolent goddess who loves mankind and helps the mortal world. Lady Enma rules the underworld and passes judgement on dead souls...

In my memory, the gods are omnipotent, and always willing to solve our troubles for us.

That's why people are willing to travel long distances to worship at their shrines.

I was later told the story of Master Susabi and his past, of how his life was taken by false kindness. I felt sad for him.

I never thought a god could be betrayed. I wondered if the reason our prayers went unanswered was because the gods were disappointed and decided to punish us.

If this is true, I will work harder when I inherit my father's role in the department.

Master Susabi's wounds may still pain him, even when he's dressed in luxurious garments. The golden shrine may never be able to erase those evils from his memory.

The only offering an official of the Department of Divinities should place on the altar is their goodwill.

I hope Master Susabi can understand, even just a little, that the evils of the mortal world have not corrupted the hearts of all humans.
