Chapter 546 of "Demi-human Girls Completion Manual" introduces new challenges: Interestingly, the emotions of this girl seemed single-threaded; her face first showed a relaxed expression,... Keep following!

Interestingly, the emotions of this girl seemed single-threaded; her face first showed a relaxed expression, then turned to surprise at the sight of the huge deer, followed by admiration for Fisher’s great strength, and finally a bit of hesitant silence without apparent reason.

"Mother Goddess bless...I thought you had fainted in the forest, you seemed to have been quite injured before. Wait, is this a deer? Did you...did you kill it?"

Fisher let out a hot breath, just about to enter the Church when he saw Ilois blocking his way with her arms outstretched. She shook her head repeatedly, refusing,

"Mr...Mr. Fisher, this is the Church. How could you kill a living creature and bring its corpse into the sight of the Mother Goddess? That’s totally unacceptable...and the deer is so cute, do you really want to eat it?"

I don’t eat deer, so should I eat you instead?

Staring at the pitiable look on Ilois’s face, Fisher nearly blurted out these words.

But he didn’t show any surprise, as he was fairly familiar with the Mother Goddess Church; ancient doctrines allowed the faithful to eat meat, but only from creatures that had died naturally, much like how she had been picking up dead shells by the seashore earlier.

The rules about killing animals for food were established by churches outside of Kado, mainly by Nali and Schwali, because after all, meat was just too delicious, and eating it was a necessity.

"If I don’t eat something soon, I’ll die of starvation, and then the Mother Goddess will punish you for not allowing me to eat. What’s more, I’ll come looking for you as a hungry ghost tonight."

"No...don’t come looking for me, don’t come looking for me...then, you should eat quickly, eat it outside, but please don’t die of hunger and come to haunt me at night, I already have trouble sleeping..."

Scared by Fisher’s joking words, Ilois hastened to cover her ears with her hands, seeming genuinely afraid that the starving Fisher would come seeking revenge at night, leaving Fisher with a helpless smile.

Wait, didn’t Emhardt say the Moon Rabbit Species could see some hidden things under the moonlight? Could her current concern be related to that?

Having already cooled, Fisher tossed the deer onto the ground. It was when Ilois was covering her ears that he noticed what she was holding was actually a copy of the "Creation Scripture." It seemed she had just been studying the scripture.

Fisher remembered how, as a mischievous child in Church School, he was often punished to copy the Creation Scripture for his various errors. These included but were not limited to fighting, sneaking out to the streets with his innocent little face to trick Saint Nali’s elder sisters out of their spending money, and sneaking peeks at Father Terren’s drawer full of erotic novels...

Anyway, to this day, Fisher still owed Sister Theresa fifteen copies of the Creation Scripture that he hadn’t written.

Fisher quietly laughed, tossing those overly familiar memories aside from his mind, and bowed his head to begin processing the buck’s carcass with his Fluid Sword.

"Sizzle, sizzle~"

"Yes, yes, that’s the right heat, sprinkle a bit of salt and spices and it’s ready to eat. What are you waiting for?! Clumsy!"

Fisher, sitting at the entrance of Healing Corruption Church, frowned as he eyed the greasy shimmering deer meat, unable to believe that cooking something delicious could be so simple...well, if he ignored that every word Emhardt had just uttered was beyond his expectations.

Turns out this fellow Emhardt had a stomach full of recipes from culinary masters, mastered the content, and could even teach Fisher, whose cooking was barely passable.

Roasted meat mixed with Northern Realm spices was quite delicious, and the aroma spread far in the chilly air of winter in Sardinia Female Country. He didn’t know if people far away could smell it, but the Moon Rabbit Species girl reciting the Creation Scripture in front of the Church definitely could.

"’The Mother Goddess and the stars around her gazed upon their child who fell to the Mortal World. On the first day, he crossed the mountains; on the second day, he crossed the rivers; on the third day, he entered the forest. He looked up at the sky day and night, trying to glimpse his beloved Mother from the boundless canopy of Sky...’"

Ilois recited the scripture, but the thick saliva in her mouth became increasingly pronounced as she read. What was funnier was that her eyes uncontrollably wandered towards the sizzling, oil-spouting roasted deer in the snow.

Deer are so cute, they must taste good too...

No, no, no, what am I thinking! That... that’s taboo, and I would be punished by the Mother Goddess if I ate it!

After tasting a piece, Fisher found the flavor surprisingly good, a world apart from the meat he had roasted before.

"The taste is great..."

"Isn’t it? With me, Emhardt around, you’ll never go hungry, understand? Read more, and you can be outstanding like me."

Fisher ignored Emhardt, who was nearly exploding with pride, and handed a piece of the roasted deer to Ilois, who was seated far away at the entrance of the church, saying,

"Do you want some? You didn’t get full from that little bit of shell meat earlier, did you?"

"Eh? I... me? No... Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Fisher, but I mustn’t eat meat from killed animals, that’s the Mother Goddess’s..."

"Hmm, but in fact, the current Church’s discipline no longer includes this rule. They’ve interpreted it using a passage from the Creation Scripture, ’His children walked for seven days and nights, His children also cried for seven days and nights. The Mother Goddess reached down and tore a piece of flesh from her arm and threw it to the Mortal World, where the falling flesh was scattered by the Stars, landing in lakes, seas, mountains, and rivers, turning into tangible animals.’"

Even after twenty years, Fisher remembered the contents of the Creation Scripture exactly. He spoke while eating the meat,

"’The Stars asked: Why do you harm yourself like this? The Mother Goddess sighed: My children weep from hunger, and my heart also bleeds from their tears. If my blood can exchange for my children’s tears to stop, then what’s wrong with that, as long as he sincerely reforms? Thus, the Mother Goddess’s children, following the Stars’ guidance, ate the animals formed from the Mother’s flesh and blood and lived.’"

Ilois gaped, feeling the passage was familiar, yet she suddenly couldn’t recall which Chapter of the Creation Scripture it came from. Just as she was about to look down at the Creation Scripture, Fisher, with a blank expression, had already answered for her,

"Don’t bother looking, it’s Section Fourteen of Chapter Two, the Ymir saga... And, wasn’t the Creation Scripture you were reciting earlier missing some sections about the dialogue between the Stars and the Mother Goddess?"

"Eh? That... that..."

Ilois anxiously flipped through the ancient Creation Scripture book in her hands, which was almost falling apart, her rabbit ears twitching incessantly. She seemed a bit embarrassed and paused for a long time before continuing,

"Actually... my teacher, who is the true owner of this church, Sister Shalu, told me that the Creation Scripture of the Healing Corruption Church was damaged. It’s said to be because a hundred years ago, McDowell Feudal State implemented religious control, which is why the Creation Scripture I’ve studied is missing many pages..."

"I see."

Fisher, disinterestedly munching on deer meat, seemed to Ilois like a man from the Western Continent, the true birthplace of the Mother Goddess Sect, who knew the Creation Scripture very well. If that was the case, could she ask him to help her restore the damaged Creation Scripture in her hands?

"Um, Mr. Fisher, you seem very familiar with the text of the Creation Scripture... could I ask you to help me find what content is missing from my Creation Scripture?"

Fisher paused mid-bite of roasted meat, and the expression on Emhardt’s shoulder instantly turned into a resigned "I knew it" dead fish-eye.

Setting down the roast meat gently, Fisher turned to look at Ilois, sitting at the church entrance wearing a classical nun’s robe. The flames from the roasted deer flickered the expression and gaze upon his face, making Ilois feel somewhat guilty and embarrassed.

After Fisher swallowed the deer meat he had been chewing, he calmly said,

"Of course, I can... but as you’ve said, it’s a ’request,’ right?"
