by fnovelpiaThe status of the Heretic Questioner of the Holy Kingdom is very high.
On the surface, it promotes faith and charity in God.
We give food to the hungry and clothes to the naked.
It’s all acting.
“Don’t feel too unfair. The person you killed was a really great person.”
The Heretic Questioner’s true identity is an assassin trained to thoroughly kill the enemies of the Holy Kingdom.
“Have you ever been raising children in a place like this?”
“Ugh…ugh..”
The nun’s mace was stained with blood.
There was no way she could defeat Heretic Questioner Ravel without being able to use even an ounce of divine power.
“A fake impersonating a saint. That alone deserves the death penalty.”
“Shut up..”
“It’s the last time, so why don’t you use your mouth kindly? Let children watch and learn.”
Ravel gently stroked the frightened children.
“Don’t worry. Because you guys will go first. I guess I was just unlucky.”
The fallen nun glared at Ravel with venomous eyes.
Who are you touching with those dirty hands?
If I could, I would pierce his heart with a mace.
She used her last strength to strike the barrier.
A curtain surrounded the children.
Ravel, who saw the nun’s murderous eyes, smiled as if it was amusing and continued speaking.
” Part of me wants to kill you right away, but the higher-ups want to set an example. So I’ll just cut off one arm.”
Ravel slowly approached with his sword drawn.
How did you find out about this place? This is an empire.
The power of the Holy Kingdom would not reach the Ruth Orphanage. Moreover, it is located near Beatus Academy, which can be said to be the heart of the empire.
If so, someone is the culprit.
Could it be him?
“Is it that guy?”
“Huh..?”
Ravel tilted his head as if he didn’t understand. The nun spoke without losing her grim expression.
“You asked. Is it that guy?”
A man who suddenly came here recently.
A child who willingly donated a large sum of 500 gold and even took care of chores.
A person like a wall who quietly completed the work despite the whining of children and hard work without once getting angry.
I was concerned from the beginning.
Maybe the man was warning me.
Playing Bishop Offinho’s own composition on the piano.
“What kind of man is that…”
“No. Just don’t answer. There’s no need to listen anyway.”
I can’t hear it anyway.
I don’t even have the stamina to read lips.
The nun raised the corners of her mouth with a grin.
thank god.
I wasn’t fooled this time.
I’m glad I didn’t believe it this time.
I’m glad I didn’t trust you.
I won.
I laugh like crazy. I don’t know why I’m laughing.
“Have I finally gone crazy? It would be difficult if I went crazy already.”
Ravel swung the staff at the children with a tired expression.
The nun immediately jumped up and blocked the attack.
It was an action close to instinct.
Blood flows.
Like a waterfall.
“Ugh..!”
“Oops. If it gets pierced there, it hurts.”
“Mama..!”
“Cream, calm down. If you move here, you will cause more damage to Mama.”
“But..!
When Cream, the eldest sister, looked surprised and tried to approach, Zeke calmly assessed the situation and stopped her.
The children who were still young looked at them with anxious eyes.
“That woman’s attack is not reaching us. Maybe Mama put a barrier here. If you go out, the barrier may be broken.”
“So, let’s just stay here?! If this goes on and Mama dies!”
“…..that.”
Even while the children were struggling, the fight between the nun and the Inquisitor continued.
To be exact, it’s not a fight, but one-sided violence.
Ravel mercilessly kicked her in the stomach.
The nun, who was desperately looking at the barrier that had barely been closed, gasped in pain.
“It’s not fun at all to just look at children like that. I have to kill everyone except you anyway.”
“……No.”
“Okay. Because that’s the Heretic Questioner.”
“No!!”
Kaduk.
The nun bit Ravel’s foot. A fishy taste spread and blood burst out, but she grabbed the nun’s hair without even blinking.
“Hey. Are you kidding me? Does this situation seem like a joke? Do you still think of me as the bitch who catered to you?”
“Let go!! Ahhh!!”
“When I think back on it now, it’s ridiculous.. From the moment I was born, I’ve been arrogant to be a fake bitch.”
Ravel dragged herself in front of the children.
While being dragged, his entire body was scratched by stones and he was completely injured. In the meantime, the nun did not lose her mind.
Must be saved.
I need to save it, but my body doesn’t have the strength to do so.
Ravel stood in front of the children and started insulting her.
“Listen carefully, kids. The nun you trusted and followed was actually a fake?”
“…Stop it…”
“On top of that, he even killed the person who raised him and ran away.. Don’t you guys get goosebumps too? This bitch is just a murderer.”
“…..Please, stop..”
The nun bowed her head. Because I didn’t have the confidence to see my children.
Every time I read Ravel’s lips, I feel like the world is collapsing.
“Black…Ugh…”
“Mama…”
Cream and Zeke trembled and looked at the nun.
The children’s sobs could not reach her. Because I couldn’t hear it.
Because she only transmits her voice, it is impossible to hear it.
“I’m sorry…”
Just before his death, he received money from a person informed by Bishop Offinho.
With that money, I could live on for the rest of my life. If you truly loved money, there was no reason to take on all the chores at an orphanage like this.
For her, money is. It was the most precious thing after life.
“Mama… don’t cry.. ugh..”
“Hmm…”
Sometimes there are things more precious than life.
There is something to protect.
After the death of the bishop she followed like a parent, she became unable to trust anyone.
Because faith is something only weak people have. Because you can live without faith.
Actually, those might all be excuses.
Even though the nun was trembling and being trampled by the rebar-like legs, she did not give up looking at the children. Ravel looked at the scene with interest.
The nun suddenly thought of Dyers.
I didn’t know why the traitor came to mind in this situation.
The moment he played the piano, the nun naturally concluded that Dyers was a traitor.
“I am not wrong..I am..”
In fact, over the past week she has shown most interest in Dyers.
Is there any reason not to be interested in a person who readily offers up a large sum of 500 gold, is kind to children, and reliably performs any task assigned to him?
‘sir. I’m just asking because I’m curious. ‘Why are you doing this?’
‘What do you mean?’
‘No, that. Usually people don’t be this harsh. ‘I’m sorry if I offended you.’
‘Because I like it.’
‘…yes? I read it wrong…’
‘Because I like this orphanage where there are children and nuns. ‘I feel at ease when I’m here.’
‘You speak beautifully.’
‘Don’t make fun of me.’
‘I got caught.’
When he came to visit on the first day, she was very wary.
When he came again the next day, she had a puzzled look on her face.
And as a week passed, I came to take his existence for granted.
‘Tomorrow, the sand will come too.’
“…liar.”
Honestly, I was happy.
So much so that I inadvertently thought it would be nice to keep coming.
I didn’t even know if I secretly had a crush on him.
Although I have been betrayed my whole life, I may have been intoxicated by the sweetness of that week and made a foolish judgment.
When he played the bishop’s own song, he had to kill him and run away with the children.
This is the result of letting go instead of running away.
The nun bit her lower lip.
“…..You bastard.”
What do we do. If you use swear words, children will learn.
I was already worried that Cream’s mouth had become rough recently, but it was a big problem.
Ravel, who stepped on her, giggled and raised his weapon.
I’m going to die soon.
“Is this enough to say goodbye? I’m shocked that the last one is a swear word.”
Just before she died, the nun said a brief prayer.
If there is such a thing as a miracle, please save the children.
Please save my treasures.
I hope to God.
Actually, I wanted to believe it.
Ravel’s weapon swung at the nun.
Just before she died, she did not close her eyes like a bishop.
Because I wanted to go there with my children in mind, even if only for a little bit.
Maybe that’s why I was able to see it.
“I’m sorry for being such a bad bastard.”
A miracle given by God.
God’s hair is white.
The haze of spirit rang out.
.
I understood the situation reasonably well.
I think that guy is the real culprit who killed the kids.
“…Aren’t you the eldest son of the Howlan family?”
“That’s right.”
The guy who introduced himself as ‘Ravel’ continued speaking with an eerie smile.
“Our Holy Kingdom has no reason or intention to quarrel with the Howlan family. I am currently carrying out official duties. Could you please return?”
It may seem polite at first glance, but it just means, ‘Get out of the way of outsiders.’
I opened my mouth, looking at the nun in a mess.
“Is it official business to hurt a nun and kill children?”
“Oh, I didn’t tell you this. That woman is a criminal who impersonated a saint, killed a bishop, and ran away. I don’t know how you roasted and boiled him. That bitch is a ‘fake’”
After hearing Ravel’s words, I glanced at the nun.
She bit her lip and then lowered her head.
It’s fake.
“It might be fake to you.”
“Yes..?”
I didn’t stop walking.
Before I knew it, I was right in front of the label.
“Tell it to your God.”
” Confucius, it would be difficult if things continued like this…”
“He is someone who has never been a fake.”
Thanks to taking the time, my spirits were filled.
