The Evernight Goddess really has a problem with me.
Edward thought expressionlessly, Almost as much as the Eternal Blazing Sun does. Is this really necessary? Just because I killed a Sequence 7 believer of hers? And because I'm an Outer Deity's believer?
All right, it's more because Klein seems to be Sefirah Castle's heir, one of the candidates for Lord of the Mysteries. It really was a pity that I killed him.
