Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube - Chapter 1597 - 1105: Destined Sacrifice
"She was born in a remote mountain village, some distance from the Sagelros Empire. She had no extraordinary bloodline and lacked outstanding Magic Power, yet at the moment of her birth, not a trace of blood or filth stained her body. Pure and immaculate like a white lotus, she neither cried nor fussed, but quietly observed the world."
This description is widely circulated throughout the entire Source World.
Not only did Melo and Naisa mention it when Reiger inquired about Beluti, but even in other places, when someone asks about Saintess Beluti Lawon, people typically begin with such a description to thoroughly introduce Beluti.
This description is naturally not wrong.
At least, from what Beluti knows, she was indeed in such a state at her birth.
Or rather, she was already in a distinctive state compared to others even before she was born.
No matter the world, there are children who begin forming memories from birth.
Reiger’s Loki Familia, currently led by its Hobbit chief—Finn Timna, is such a person.
But Beluti is even more special.
Because she started forming memories even before her birth, while still in her mother’s womb.
This fact remains unknown to anyone, including the priest teacher who brought Beluti from the remote mountain village into the Holy Sword Church.
That is why no one knows that from that time, Beluti could see many, many things.
She told Reiger she could see the future.
This claim isn’t entirely accurate.
A more accurate statement would be that she can see not just the future, but also the past.
Although she can only see those catastrophic fragments, it is precisely those fragments that led to immense growth in Beluti’s knowledge while still in the womb.
If it were an ordinary person, let alone before birth, even a mentally healthy adult seeing those catastrophic images constantly might suffer a mental breakdown.
Fortunately, because she was not yet born and her psyche undeveloped, Beluti didn’t find those images sad or painful; she received them all in a naive daze and silently remembered them in her heart.
That’s why, when Beluti was born, she was so calm, neither crying nor fussing, pure and immaculate like a white lotus.
Only later did Beluti gradually comprehend what those images truly meant, and in the process learned sadness, understood compassion, learned pity, and understood redemption.
She knew she was different; otherwise, she wouldn’t see those images.
She also knew her uniqueness was much more profound; otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to heal numerous pains and illnesses in the village just using Magic Power without learning any Magic.
Why she could avoid animosity from magical creatures and remain unassaulted in the wild remains a mystery to this day.
But one decision Beluti made when she was very young.
That was, she wanted to explore every corner of this world and try to make those sad, painful, and sorrowful images she saw disappear from this world.
Those things can live in her memories but don’t need to exist in this world.
Thus, Beluti embarked on her journey early, starting her own unique travel.
During her travels, she saved many, erased many potential disasters, though at times she fell short and allowed fragments from her memory to appear in reality.
She didn’t get discouraged, persisting in this endeavor.
This time, accompanying Reiger to this black land and resolved to close the Abyss Gate is also for this reason.
To make the sorrowful future disappear.
To prevent the painful future from appearing again.
Beluti’s wish is simple yet unimaginably grand.
If gods truly exist in this world, then she must be the Angel sent by the divine.
Her uniqueness and her flawless purity are miracles of this world.
Beluti Lawon, this girl, was born to relieve suffering and save those in distress.
Though she may not be able to save the entire Source World like saviors, those she saves and redeems are not few.
Now, for that simple wish, Beluti burns her life to commence a blood offering.
The sacrificial ceremony is not an exclusive technique of the Abyss.
In the Magic world, sacrificial ceremonies exist prominently; it’s not just the Abyss that understands this method.
Beluti once accidentally entered the ruins of a long-extinct tribe during her travels, acquiring a sacrificial ceremony there.
The original intent of this sacrificial ceremony was to completely sever Source and Abyss, rendering it impossible for abyssal creatures to descend upon Source again.
Clearly, this tribe had once suffered from the Abyss’s invasions, hence researched such methods.
Regrettably, to thoroughly isolate Abyss and Source and prevent mutual interaction is nearly impossible.
Though Source and Abyss are entirely opposite planes, they are two sides of the same coin, the world’s positive and negative faces.
