After that, the group silently left the supermarket and went to a nearby pharmacy to look for medicine. Shizuku leaned against a shelf nearby, leisurely drinking cola as she watched them move around with flashlights.
Just then, the blonde woman came over to Shizuku and stared at her.
"Why did you... kill her?"
"Hmm?"
Hearing the blonde woman's question, Shizuku glanced at her.
"From the sound of it, should I have let them tie me to a stake, burn me to death, and sing and dance around me?"
"That's not what I meant."
The blonde woman froze at Shizuku's retort, but quickly explained herself.
"I mean... you possess such great power. You could have simply ignored her. You could have driven her away or imprisoned her instead of killing her outright..."
"Mm, as you said, I had many options."
Shizuku shrugged, and the blonde woman looked at her in confusion.
"Then why did you..."
"Oh, because I wanted to. See? It's that simple."
Shizuku spread her hands as she looked at the blonde woman. The woman stared at her in shock, then slowly backed away, trembling.
"You don't believe in God, do you?"
"Of course I don't. And by the way, you should know that there are no fewer people in this world who don't believe in God than those who do. So don't act like the truth of the world has just been overturned."
Shizuku finished the cola in her hand and casually tossed the can aside.
"Also, I've told people before that even if God exists, don't expect Him to watch over you forever. It's like parents. When a child is first born, they raise him, teach him, and guide him. But once that child grows into an adult, they let him become independent—God is the same. Humanity
