Grezig listened to Kaori’s explanation silently. Religion had always freaked her out, probably to an unfair degree, but it was something she had hardly any control over. She hated the idea that someone else who lived in the sky was the one determining her life, as opposed to Grezig herself deciding for herself what her life would be like. Besides, she was so logic-oriented that the idea that gods existed—or dragons, or anything else that she couldn’t see with her eyes, for that matter—irked her. It made no sense. Why would someone throw away a perfectly functioning brain like that in favor of believing made-up things?
“I believe in what I can see, and hear, and smell, and taste, and touch,” Grezig replied, saying each word slowly and deliberately. “I take all of my senses and I think carefully about them. I do not bother with things that lie outside the physical realm. If I cannot sense it with my body, it does not exist. Period.” Grezig paused, realizing she may have just pissed this woman off with such stubborn talk. “These are only my own beliefs. I care not what others believe so long as they aren’t harming anyone… and so long as they don’t bother me with such nonsense. I will not be converted.”
