Otaku Witch

Dorothy was not pretending to be strong; in fact, she wasn't very angry at Eve's apology.

Even though this Mother Superior had just admitted to abandoning her, it wasn't without reason, and the promise to be a good mother in the next life might sound ridiculous to others. But for her, who indeed came from the future, it seemed sincere.

Mother Dragon was indeed trying hard to be a good mother now.

As for the mission Eve mentioned, although this Nun Mother did not specify, Dorothy could guess the content of that mission.

What else could it be? As a Primordial God, her mission must be to resist the Angels and save the world.

In the choice between raising her daughter and saving the world, this Goddess of the Moon chose to save the world.

This is a classic old problem; most heroes who have families before taking on a mission would face this unsolvable choice.

To choose family, or to choose the mission.

After all, not all heroes' spouses can follow their partner on the journey to the battlefield. Many heroes' spouses in history were ordinary people. When heroes embarked on their missions, these ordinary spouses could only stay at home, anxiously waiting for the hero who might never return.

Thus, it often happens that when heroes return home after achieving fame, they find their spouse already old, and their children grown up.

As husbands or wives, they missed their partners' youth. As fathers or mothers, they missed their children's entire childhood.

They may have garnered praise from the world, but they owe the most to their closest family.

Such people can be considered heroes or even great figures, but they cannot be called qualified family members.

Therefore, compared to an extraordinary destiny, Dorothy actually yearns for a simple life. She does not seek great glory, just hopes to live happily with friends and family every day.

Yet she can understand this Nun Mother's choice. If faced with the difficult choice herself, she might make a similar decision.

After all, without the world, there is no home. If the world is doomed, how can her family find peace? Even if not for glory or mission, just to protect her loved ones, she has no other choice.

So, if this Nun Mother had to abandon her for such a mission, as a daughter, Dorothy would choose to forgive this Mother Superior who is indeed a hero of salvation.

In reality, before the misunderstanding was resolved, her dislike for Mother Dragon was primarily due to Adam's absurd reason. A mother who easily abandoned her husband and child for the pursuit of Strength is indeed unworthy.

What she cared about wasn't the mother's company and care. She wasn't a mama's baby who couldn't live without her mom. More than these, she cared about the essential matter of whether her mother truly loved her.

If there is love, that's enough. If not, then they should not interfere with each other and maintain some dignity as strangers.

And just now, in Eve Nun's reaction to her daughter, Dorothy found the answer she wanted.

Although this Nun Mother is unqualified, even a bit disgraced, it wasn't her fault; the blame lies on the Angel's side.

Of course, although Dorothy chose to forgive, as an abandoned child, she felt little closeness to this Nun Mother.

Some things can be understood and empathized with, but only to a certain extent.

Adults must bear the consequences of their choices; it's impossible to get everything they want. That would be too greedy, violating the eternal truth of equivalent exchange.

If parents missed their children's growth, they naturally cannot blame the children for not being close.

Dorothy is willing to call Nun Eve "Mother Superior" because she acknowledges the birth connection. But more mother-daughter feelings, there's not much to talk about.

Emotions need time to build; they don't appear out of nowhere.

Mother Dragon was recognized and accepted by Dorothy only after two months of interaction. As for whether this Goddess Mother should be acknowledged, only time and interaction will tell.

At this moment, the homebody witch is more intensely watching the show unfold.

Hmm, tell the story of you and Father Adam quickly. I'm really curious about what drama these two old foes will conjure up this time.

Meanwhile, although hearing her daughter forgive her so easily and even call her "Mother Superior" brought Eve unprecedented comfort and joy, making her ecstatic.

But similarly, seeing her daughter's indifferent attitude, preferring snacks and gossip rather than blaming her, made Eve feel a stronger wave of guilt and sorrow.

She realized that although her daughter forgave her, there was no closeness, this stranger-like attitude is the most painful. If possible, she would rather her daughter hate her a bit and scold her.
