“Can I leave this here?”

“Yes. Thank you very much. Thanks to you, I was able to finish quickly.”

A bride handing over her hand while wiping the sweat from her brow with a white handkerchief.

Holding his hand, I also give him a reciprocal smile.

“Isn’t that a matter of course? Don’t worry too much about it.”

“hahahaha! Your heart is also so beautiful. This too will be guided by Carlione and God.”

The name of the priest who is reaching out to me is John.

He was one of the priests at Halla Catholic Church in Jeju Island, and was also the general manager of relief supplies.

“Since all your busy work is over, how about resting inside? It will take quite a while to get to Jeju Island, so please rest well.”

“Thank you for your kindness. Father.”

The Francis was a spacious vessel, commonly referred to as a barge, and was the perfect size for loading cargo.

However, the downside was that the space for people to stay was narrow, so people had to rest on blankets or mattresses in the common space.

Of course, you can make a room by remodeling or something, but… … This boat is definitely a boat used by religious people.

It was nonsense to wish for luxury.

“Ah, this is the brother I just met. welcome.”

“””welcome!!”””

As the personnel entered the resting place, other priests and sisters greeted me with bright smiles.

“Thank you very much for your hospitality.”

After receiving their greetings with a smile, I sat in an empty seat and looked around.

A peaceful scene where everyone is laughing and talking or praying.

But i know

The fact that these too are not ordinary priests and nuns.

The fact that it is a Catholic blade that is immersing itself in the hell of Jeju Island.

Of course, not all of them were like that.

“mister! Are you a priest too?”

“Are you going to Jeju Island too? Do you have a house in Jeju Island?”

“Is the water wriggling in your hands, too?”

Before I knew it, children dressed in nuns’ and priest’s uniforms approached me with a barrage of questions.

I heard that there are children who lost their parents on Jeju Island and ended up living in the Halla Catholic Church.

“Uncle. me?”

“Yes! Uncle!”

“mister! lol!”

Seeing my face transformed into a middle-aged man due to the [Clown Style Makeup] skill, he seems to think that I am an old man.

He had changed his face because of the threat that it would arise if the fact that I, Carlione’s heir, was coming to Jeju Island alone spread around, but in the eyes of the children, he looked like a simple uncle.

Still, I put a lot of effort into customizing it… … .

The moment I scratched my face and was at a loss as to what to explain.

“Everyone. Can’t you use it if you annoy the guests?”

“““Yes”””

Fortunately, thanks to the quick-witted sister, I was able to get out of a difficult situation.

“I’m sorry the kids are so curious.”

“no. I think it could be because they are children.”

Sister smiled at this.

“Thank you for saying that. Maybe it’s because I’ve lived in Jeju Island since I was young, but I’m a kid with a lot of curiosity outside. Of course, I am currently staying in Busan on weekdays because of school.”

“ah… … .”

“You know the story about orphans in Jeju Island, right?”

“Yes, I remember hearing it a few times.”

It is a story that has already spread in Busan and the Namhae side, and it was a rumor close to superstition that those who lived in Jeju Island brought bad luck.

This did not just stop as a rumor, but also contributed to raising the birth rate of villains in Jeju Island… … .

In this worldview, the people of Jeju were already regarded as symbols of bad luck.

“Because of that, the children can barely sleep in the Busan parish. I have to come back on the weekend. Really, I think it is a harsh ordeal for children.”

Listening to her story, I look at the children in front of me laughing and chatting with each other.

“… … Still, aren’t you growing up smiling brightly? It must be that the parishioners of Jeju have put in so much effort.”

“ah… … I didn’t expect you to say that. thank you. Oops, I actually interrupted the fact that I was helping you rest.”

“no. It was a pleasant conversation.”

Sister smiled at my conversation and rose from her seat.

“It will probably take about 13 hours to get to Jeju Island once we leave. In the meantime, please rest well.”

Sister lowered her head and disappeared somewhere.

Accepting her consideration, I lay down to relieve the fatigue of flying from Incheon to Busan and slowly went to bed.

* * *

Took.

Took. Took.

repeated shocks. Even so, there was only one reason why I closed my eyes.

“mister? Uncle, are you sleeping?”

Because the young nun who came to visit me during the day was hitting me.

Pretending to be asleep, I tried to wait until somehow, but after all, the nun was a nun.

How patient I was, I was constantly hitting my legs.

“… … Why.”

In the end, I gave up on Jonber and started talking.

“Ahh! I didn’t sleep either!”

“… … Can you sleep when you hit it like that?”

“lol. sorry. But you’ve been sleeping for a long time, haven’t you? Sister Maria said that sleeping for a long time is not good for the body.”

“Did you sleep long?”

Let’s check the start right away. It’s 5:00 PM… … It was just 9 hours after I fell asleep.

It’s the first time I’ve ever rested with a different face like this, so it seems like I’m sound asleep. Considering the amount of time I usually sleep, I definitely slept for a long time.

But.

“Did you wake up for that?”

“Oh, that can’t be! that is… … So… … I wondered what Seoul was like.”

“what?”

“Actually we… … I’ve never been to anywhere other than Busan. There is no TV on Jeju Island, and there is no TV at the church where I stay on weekdays. School children say there are heroes who protect us, but we don’t know much about them.”

Saying that, the little sister raised her head and looked at me with bright eyes.

“Outside talk… … Can’t you please?”

“under… … .”

He asked me to talk about this reason, but who could refuse?

I felt more refreshed than usual, as if I must have had a good night’s sleep, and one side of the boat seemed to be preparing dinner, so I stood up and said,

“Let’s go, where are the other children?”

“Out there! Everyone is waiting for you!”

“Outside?”

The place he followed, led by such a small hand, was the outer deck loaded with goods.

“Here it is. there!”

The little sister pointed to an area where boxes of groceries were piled up, where children were squatting and chatting and flirting.

“uh? Jeanne brought a real man!”

“Zane is great!”

“You are brave!”

The little sister who is being praised by the children just for bringing me, or rather, the child who was called to sleep, scratches her head as if she is ashamed of the compliments that follow.

“hehehe, everyone is shy. Now, since the guest is also here, should everyone be quiet?”

While saying that, Sister Jeanne, sitting between the children, stared blankly at me.

“ah.”

I asked you to talk outside.

Apparently, all the other kids were looking at me with expectant eyes.

“There is nothing particularly great about it… … .”

Still, you can’t disappoint your kids.

OK, let me tell you!

However, it was not the story of the academy.

A story that probably no one knows.

I decided to tell the story of this face, Saber Cloud, by weaving it together.

“It happened while I was playing games—— so I was traveling.”

But, let’s talk about something believable first, shall we?

* * *

“Hey, how do you kill a dragon with chopsticks?”

“Mister fool!”

“A liar!”

“I don’t believe it. If you look at the dragon’s chest, there is a place called Yeokrin, and if you stab the heart through it… … .”

Of course, all skills and stats related to stabbing should be maxed out, but that’s not a lie.

“Even a dragon dies. I want to show it myself, but there’s no dragon nearby… … It’s a pity.”

It’s not like it’s going to be a stat to show with chopsticks right now.

So the moment I tried to show something else instead.

“Gather everyone! I’ll be there soon!”

“““Yes!”””

The children who responded to the sister’s voice at the same time shouted ‘Ssssscha!’ They groaned and rose from their seats one by one.

“It was fun though. mister!”

“I want to see a dragon!”

“Please talk again at the cathedral!”

The children run in the direction where the sister is with the words to promise the next time.

“Ah, were you with the children this time too?”

And at the end of it, there was a sister with a shy smile as if she was sorry for me walking with the children.

“no. The children played with me. But are you arriving soon?”

“Yes, it will start to get foggy. It would be good to prepare the guests as well.”

“preparation… … You mean?”

After confirming that the children were completely inside the ship, the sister nodded and took something out from under the nun’s skirt.

It was a small pistol with a cross on it.

“It is always busiest when docked in the port.”

“Ah, I heard the story.”

The reason I came along with them this time was because of circumstances in Jeju Island.

It is to deal with the demons, villains, and monsters that are aiming for the ship’s goods and children.

“Are you sure it’s coming like a wave as soon as it’s anchored in the port?”

“Yes. It’s an opportunity to get decent daily necessities that come to Jeju Island, which comes only once a week. It’s strangely worse these days… … It was always on the edge, so it would have been a miracle that there were no injuries so far.”

A sister who controls her heart by crossing her last name as if she doesn’t know why.

I looked at him and nodded my head slightly. It was also a natural reaction considering the events that occurred at this time.

“I will do my best to help.”

“It’s relieved that Carlione’s hitman is helping. Then we will be ready to unload.”

Sister nodded and disappeared.

Apparently, the other Sisters and Priests could also be seen preparing to unload or being wary of their surroundings.

“It seems that Jeju Island is getting closer.”

Then, as the sea fog grew thicker and the field of vision around us began to narrow, even the cell phone signals in our pockets stopped working.

───────Baaang

The heavy yet majestic sound of the boat’s horn that flowed through the fog made the entire ship vibrate.

A signal to let them know that their ships are nearby.

“Are other ships using this port besides us?”

I don’t think it’s a big deal, so I’ll help with the luggage. the moment I thought

rattle!!

The boat rocked loudly and there was a loud roar.

and in front.

“ah. Ahh… … .”

I could see Sister Maria’s bluish face.

“Sister Maria?”

“Pirates, pirates!”

pirate?
