Kidnapping the Hero Party

24. The Last Companion. Saints like holy water (4)

24. Last mate. Saints like holy water (4)

Birds chirping in the morning.

Estiya was in a dream.

‘Subject 51. start dosing. Get the shot, Eric.’

‘Lord, I hate injections… Ha, please don’t, I’m sorry… ‘

‘If you close your eyes and wake up soon, you’ll be fine.’

‘I don’t like it… ‘

Without holy water, terrible memories come back.

Children being tested in the basement of a church.

30 people today.

28 tomorrow.

Next is 24.

Estiya was swimming in the memory of a deep swamp where her friends disappeared day by day.

‘Oh, no… ! Go, don’t go, kids… ! Don’t leave me alone… !!’

Friends have been engulfed in a swamp for a long time.

Estiya is the only one with her head up.

in that brutal scene.

Estiya heard someone’s voice.

“yes… yes… you… ”

“this… L… you… ”

“Wake up-!!”

“Aww-!”

As Luna said, Saint Estiya immediately got up.

Where are you?

Feeling a slight pain on her forehead, Estiya looked around, moving her head to the side.

“Where are you? Isn’t it a church?”

“Ah, my chin… What if I wake up suddenly?”

“What, who are you?”

“I am Lunasia Luna. I am a kidnapped person like you!”

Luna, a girl with golden hair who shouts proudly.

She banged her head against Estiya, caressing her sore jaw.

Estiya could not comprehend this bizarre situation.

‘What, what? Why am I here? I must have been at church… ?’

The memory of drinking holy water is not completely left behind.

It is sparsely remembered, and scatters like fragments.

Estiya picked up the fragments of memories as much as possible.

Those memories that popped into Estiya’s head…

‘Mask, oppa, sky, clink? what?’

I can’t remember the process, but I could understand the conclusion right before my eyes.

Am I kidnapped?

The apostle who was trying to make it mine was kidnapped by your brother?

“Is the apostle of Minerva the kidnapper? Could this be a big deal?”

As an apostle of the goddess, he won’t kill me…

There are many things you can do without killing.

For example, an experiment.

‘… Experiment.’

The moment she realized that fact, anxiety rose in Estiya’s mind.

Now, no matter what happens here, I can’t tell other people.

Fear engulfs my body, and my hands tremble.

holy water.

I needed holy water.

“Ker, give me a cup… ! where’s the cup… !! Come on, get some holy water!!”

“Eh? Why are you doing this all of a sudden, you?”

“Ah, ah, I have no divine power..!! City, being tested… ! Lord, it might hurt more than dying… !! Oh, Goddess, please save that Estiya from heaven… !!”

“Ehh. I’ve been feeling crazy since yesterday, but I’m really crazy.”

Luna let out a sigh.

Estiya’s actions were just like her past, and she felt stupid.

“I used to be like that… ”

“My, let me go… Come on, give me holy water… Sa, please save me, Goddess… ”

Looking at Estiya who is struggling.

Suddenly, it was Luna who remembered her past self.

Luna decided to set an example as a kidnapping senior.

He grabbed her by the shoulders, who was moving, making eye contact and shouting loudly.

“You stay still! You won’t be able to run away anyway. Take a look at the bridge.”

“Do, run away… ! Aww-! hey, what is this… ? iron, chains… ? I can’t run away either… ”

“Stay still! The uncle will come and explain later. For now, stay still and listen. Understand?”

“… ”

nod.

Estiya nodded her head for a moment.

Seeing this, Luna felt as if she was looking at her own younger sister.

‘The youngest’s behavior is just like that… ‘

Acting like the youngest of a 5-year-old.

Luna headed to the desk to calm her down.

There was a bowl that had already been emptied and a bowl half full of porridge.

‘I ate a little, but… What, are you okay?’

Luna picked it up and took it to Estiya.

As if Estiya was hungry, her gaze rested on the bowl.

“Come on, ah. Eat this and calm down. Understand?”

“… ah.”

“I’m a good listener.”

yum.

Estiya ate the porridge and widened her eyes.

It was because it was a delicious porridge with various ingredients carefully.

“Mmm, Mmm, why is it delicious..?”

“Even if he is bad, his cooking skills are good. Totally reversed charm! But even if I couldn’t cook, I just wish I was a good person. Come on, wait. you wouldn’t have heard… ?”

“… Did you say Luna? I have a question.”

“Yeah, what is it?”

I have a question.

Estiya, who had calmed down, took a deep breath and asked.

“You said you were kidnapped too. But why are you so calm?”

weird.

People who were originally abducted had dark facial expressions.

Isn’t it natural to cry out for help until you die?

Even after being kidnapped, Estiya couldn’t understand Luna’s bright smile.

Luna smiled at the question and said.

“That’s right… Honestly, being kidnapped is a bad thing. It’s not too bad.”

“… Are you saying it’s not bad to die?”

“Oh no? why am i dying Even if he’s a bad person, should I say he has his own manners? don’t kill me! Rather, if you take care of it… ”

Oh, I don’t know, I’m ashamed!

Luna was so unfamiliar with the words of praise for the uncle.

It was very strange that he praised the person who had been forcibly kidnapped in the first place.

“Anyway! Calm down and wait. Then you’ll get a rough idea of what this place is like.”

“… OK got it. thanks As a reward, I want to give you holy water that makes you happy-”

“Me, I’m fine! I do not need! ”

Luna vigorously waved her hands, refusing Estiya’s holy water.

Estiya expressed deep regret at not being able to give her that happiness.

“I’m really happy and good… ”

“ha ha ha… ”

Why does the uncle bring abnormal children?

Luna could not understand his uncle’s intentions at all.

So, the two talked about each other until Jun-woo Lee arrived.

To understand the situation, and to chat about what happened here.

And, in the process, Luna naturally became mistaken.

‘What is it, I think he’s a good boy… I’m in good spirits… ‘

He’s a pretty good kid?” I made a very big mistake.

Estiya’s fingertips are starting to tremble.

Without even dreaming that withdrawal symptoms were coming…

***

Hare is falling asleep while hugging a pillow tightly.

Hare woke up to the sound of his uncle’s voice from upstairs.

“Ahhh~”

Maybe it was because I slept late yesterday… ?

I’m a little sleepy…

You still have to move

got up from bed

I washed my face as usual, made the bedding, looked in the mirror and made my face.

‘I want to look pretty to you.’

Because she had a woman’s heart, she had to check her condition all the time.

If there’s even mucus in the eyes, you’ll be disappointed.

After finishing all the routines, Hare left the room and headed to the living room.

“Looks like you’re awake… ”

The kitchen smells like food.

And, upstairs, I can hear the uncle’s voice.

It looks like they ate and went upstairs…

Hare followed the uncle’s trail and went up to the second floor.

He was talking in Luna’s room.

“Ugh, kidnapper! Release me right now!! I have to worship!”

“It can’t be.”

“why!”

“You have work to do. It is the will of the Goddess.”

“Well, it could be… I have to make people happy… ”

The two voices talking about something came to Hare.

The newly abducted child’s voice was soft, and he spoke like a child.

‘… I think we can get him out soon.’

Hare considered him as an opponent who could not be kept in check.

until she utters a word.

“Sado brother! I’ll give you something happy, so let me go… ? huh? I mean, I’m late for worship… ”

brother.

brother?

Did you just say brother?

Hare doubted his ears.

However, Estiya’s voice was heard again.

“You have to make people happy… huh? Brother please get me out of here… Me and I had to drink holy water… ”

“… There is no place to pray in this house, so the divine power will not gather. It is banned for the time being.”

“Oh, no..! me, i die…? I’m dying..!! Oppa, think right..!!”

The squeaks of a young child.

Hare is watching her quietly on the stairs.

Her expression was naturally wrinkled.

‘Why, why do you keep calling me oppa… ? Uncle is uncle.’

Who are you to call me brother? ?

My uncle didn’t even give me permission… ?

Jealousy rises in Hare’s heart.

My chest hurts, and the stuffiness that makes it hard to breathe comes over.

‘Your uncle is your uncle. You can’t ever call me brother.’

Even your uncle will hate a child who calls him ‘brother’.

But, the uncle is kind, so I can’t tell him not to do it.

So.

‘I have to clean it up. On behalf of the uncle.’

Hare decided to become a bad child.

A very good chance to become a bad child came to her.

The first target Hare would kick out of the house was ‘Saint Estiya’.

Luna’s room.

Estiya felt uneasy as she looked at Luna as she started preparing to leave.

“Where is Luna? Is that brother trying to bully you?”

“No, that’s not it, I’m going to training.”

“training… ? Why are you training?”

“I don’t even know! But, uncle wants you to train! They said they would let me out of here if I win, so I’m sure! I am training to win.”

“Hey, what is that… ”

What the hell are you doing here… ?

Kidnapping and not testing…

Rather, eat well and train…

It’s a strange space.

“Are you going to raise us and eat them?!”

“… I don’t think so! Anyway, I’m resting alone, Estiya. I will go!”

Jun-woo Lee opened the door for Luna, and only Luna escaped from the room.

Estiya, who watched the scene, recalled memories of the past.

‘I’ll go, Estiya. I’m waiting for you!’

A friend with green hair who greeted me with a bright smile.

She said goodbye and left and never came back.

stand, maybe? Luna too… ?

He was a good boy, is this the last goodbye?

“Oh, I can’t… But, should I have made you happy before I died? I don’t have divine power, so that’s not possible… ”

How do I fill my divine power… ?

Estiyah used the objects around her to fill her divine power.

“If this is the case, will prayers reach the Goddess?”

A cross made out of a box in haste.

Facing the cross that was about to collapse if hit, Estiya began to pray.

“Goddesses who give us happiness today, and furthermore, the happiness of life, please accept my prayer… ”

blah blah.

Estiyah knelt and prayed for a long time.

Only for the happiness that awaits.

However, the faith betrayed Estiya.

“Hey, one drop… ? Only one drop was filled!? Hey, this is a lie! It’s a lie!”

The divine power has the greatest effect when praying in the church.

The church is the place of God itself.

As an exception, religious people who have reached a certain level can obtain divine power even if they pray in a deserted field other than a church.

Because there is a God in my heart.

However, Estiya had the wrong idea and did not understand the goddess’ faith.

She could only obtain divine power in church.

“iced coffee… I need holy water… holy water… ”

Because of the holy water he couldn’t drink today, Estiya kept getting withdrawal symptoms.

His hands trembled, and he licked his lips again and again.

That was the moment.

smart-

As if there was no law in heaven saying not to die, a hand of salvation came to Estiya.

A little girl’s voice with a thud.

– By any chance, you want to get out of here… ? Can I help you… ?

The thief of the Hero party, Yuriana Hare.

She reached out a helping hand to Estiyah.

It was an extremely selfish act of Hare, but Estiya, who was saved, had no way of knowing the meaning of it.
