The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage novel Chapter 2462

Naturally, there would definitely have been differing circumstances, since the priestess's group looked no different from normal.

And there was what she said about survival bias, and it was a million to one odds that something like this would happen. Otherwise, everyone in contact with the meteorite would mutate!

Frank then suggested, "Should I get someone to research it?"

"Absolutely not! It belongs to us—no one gets to be near it!"

While the geezers were absolutely vehement against the idea, the priestess snapped, "Yours? Is your name written on it? It's true that our predecessors passed on a tradition to us, but none of us even understand if it would hurt people."

The geezers were simply bemused.

"If it does, why didn't our ancestors notice it over the last thousand years?"

The priestess smiled in wry amusement—being uneducated was a terrible thing. "They wouldn't have felt it because of the low average life expectancy. Just read the stats—even now, the number of people living here who have contracted terminal illness such as cancer is far above the average!

"Naturally, there could be other natural causes, but that would still take actual research before we come to a conclusion. And who knows—we might gain greater power thanks to how advanced science is."

The geezers traded glances but remained exasperated. "We're not doubting you—we doubt him! It's our first time meeting him. What if he claims the meteorite as his own?"

The priestess was left at a loss. "Do you really not know how powerful his ring is? He really doesn't care about such paltry power."

On the other hand, Frank could still see that they did not trust him but remained calm.

Brandishing his ring, he asked, "Why don't you try this on for size?"

The geezers traded glances again. "How?"
