Chapter 30: Future

Aiz And Ai Bilberry XIII had always thought that the balance between light and darkness was terrible. For instance, the dark ages created by the witch stretched on much longer than the periods of peace earned by the saint.

The next saint could only be born after the previous saint had fully turned into a witch. This meant the saint would naturally need a long time to grow up until she was ready to face the witch. How long was it, you ask? No matter how much they rushed the saint’s education, it still took fifteen to twenty years until she could rival the witch. Saints were all born with their powers, but they needed at least fifteen years to become able to wield them properly. Most weren’t able to wield their saintly powers from childhood like Ellize could; they needed time.

It wasn’t like anyone had arbitrarily picked their fifteenth birthday as the deadline—that was just how things were. Perhaps a child’s body was too weak to handle the full brunt of their powers, perhaps not. No one really knew why.

When boys grew up, they became more manly, while girls matured into women. Just like them, saints needed some time to come into their own. The royals called this moment “awakening.” Until saints awakened, they were pretty much regular girls—the only notable difference being that they couldn’t be hurt by anything else but dark magic.

In the meantime, the witch was free to do whatever she liked, which meant her dominion over the world always lasted for at least fifteen years. On the other hand, the peace created by saints was fleeting, to say the least. The records did not mention any stretch of peace longer than five years, which appeared to be the upper limit.

How could the gap be so large?

Mending took so much longer than destroying, and yet the side that did nothing but destroy was given a head start. The effort it took to burn down a tree could never compare to the vast amount of time and effort needed for a new tree to grow and mature in its place. And yet, the witch and her monsters were given all the time in the world to raze to their heart’s content, while the people were barely given any to nurture new lives.

The same went for monsters and archmonsters. All the witch needed to do to create new monsters was to give wild animals a bit of her power. They would then remain loyal to her under any circumstances. If the witch died, they’d immediately side with the next witch. That was how Alexia had been able to escape the saint’s castle.

Aiz couldn’t help but think it was all absurd. Why could the witch create as many deadly weapons to use against the saint as she wanted, when no one but the saint could kill the witch?

In the end, while saints very much risked dying before they could accomplish their duty, witches would go on living eternally until a saint managed to slay them.
