Chapter 293.1
The child’s mind, vigilant as she is for her age, was on something else. She. How can I tell if she’s a good person? She thought.
Thas hadn’t explained everything to his daughter. She was too young to know all the secrets of the family. All he had told her was, “Hitasya, I’m going to give you a very important mission.” But the girl didn’t know the reasons behind it or its purpose.
All she was told was that she was going to be given something by someone when she visited the Scan family. She was surprised that that person in question was Anika Jin and was even more surprised when she learned that she was a relative of Anika Jin. So, she remembered the conversation between her grandfather and father and finally understood what they were talking about.
“Originally, I was supposed to meet Anika Jin, but, because grandfather is sick I can’t,” her father had told her. “So please relay this for me instead. But you can’t tell anyone else. You can do that, right?”
“Yes, father.”
“Hitasya, this is a gift that I don’t want to give to a bad person. So, if you meet Anika Jin and think she’s a bad person, don’t give it to her. Don’t tell her who you are either.”
Hitasya had been confused. “How will I know if she’s a bad person or not?”
“It’s okay,” her father had assured her. “Just do what your heart tells you to do. It’s not the end of the world if you give it to the bad person anyway.”
Was it because Hitasya was also a Muen that she had the same instincts as her father? She didn’t know much from what Thas told her, but she knew that she couldn’t give the gift to just anyone.
