Chapter 139: The Women's Meeting [3]
It was just a title.
But in this world—where titles carried the weight of fate itself—it became something much more. It became power itself.
Elijah had accepted his new title with pride and devotion.
"Justicia's Sword."
He hadn't done it out of fear.
Nor guilt.
He did it out of love.
Not just to repay everything the goddess had given him, but because he wanted to be closer to her.
Being Justicia's champion was no longer enough for him. He wanted more. He wanted to be closer and be helpful to her.
Because when you love someone…
You want to help them.
Be useful to them.
Make them happy.
So Elijah became her sword—her warrior. A man who would wage war in her name, spill blood for her sake, and give her everything.
It was…
Pure devotion. Pure obsession.
Something Noah would never understand.
Devotion? To what? To who?
If Noah would ever devote himself to anything, it would be himself.
