39 – LH Sister Punishment Act 13

“That… is that really true?”

“Because it is. Bahamut the guy accepted the deal. I can get out of here in a little while.”

“Whoa.. I’m glad.. Really… I’m really glad.”

Linda let out a deep sigh of relief that the worst had been averted.

Although it was painful to lose everything, it was a great relief for her to have saved some of her possessions and a future to live with her loved ones.

“..I’m sorry.. there’s nothing I can do for you. If I… had I handled it a little better in advance, this time would…”

Jake, with a dark expression on his face, regrets not having made connections with the Vatican beforehand.

However, looking at him like that, Linda shook her head slowly.

“What are you talking about? I was the one who planned this in the first place. no need to blame yourself For now, let’s just think about the future.”

“Linda…”

Even in this situation, Linda shows a positive smile.

Seeing this, Jake began to feel a piece of tranquility in his heart without realizing it.

‘Yeah.. you.. have been like this since before. No matter how difficult it was, I overcame it with a smile.’

With a smile on her face, Linda used to protect her weak self in the past.

Thinking that it would be nice if he could protect her from now on, Jake began to think that he should talk about what he had been thinking all along.

‘Yeah.. I’m talking about it now.. It’s just the two of us in this cell. If I go outside, I’ll lose my mind right away…’

Above all, I thought that if something went wrong, then I might have something I would regret forever.

Jake finally succeeded in solidifying his resolve.

“Hey… Linda.”

“yes?”

“I… that… I mean…”

Jake feels a little embarrassed when he tries to talk.

But knowing that you’ve always wanted it and the other person won’t refuse it either.

Jake spoke to her in a trembling voice.

“That’s what I mean.. If this matter is sorted out.. and we go out.. then.. will you.. marry me?”

“ah… ”

The moment she heard those words, Linda involuntarily began to feel a thrill in her heart.

This is a prison, and there was not even a ring for marriage proposal.

However, the moment he heard those words, the dull prison began to turn into a place of joy as if he had come to heaven.

“Hey… ugh… ”

“Lee…Linda?”

Linda begins to shed tears from her overwhelming emotions.

However, she soon suppressed those feelings and nodded while looking at the man she loved.

“Joe.. good.. that.. so.. good.. I will.. I will.. get married.. I will be with Jake forever… forever..”

“Thank you. Really… thank you very much Linda.”

Linda agrees with a trembling voice while shedding tears.

Jake also felt overwhelming joy and hugged Linda’s body as it was.

*

The word causal.

To be honest, Bahamut didn’t really believe in that.

If there really is such a thing as cause and effect, there can’t be that many people who do all sorts of filthy things, and there’s no way that the guys who shed so many people’s tears can go on laughing and living without being punished.

Humanity is like an illusion that contains people’s hopes.

That’s how Bahamut had been thinking all along.

However, as he watched the outcome of this work right in front of his eyes, Bahamut began to think that his thoughts might be wrong.

“There is no such thing as cause and effect.. not very much.. not..”

As he said that, Bahamut slowly looked at the thing in front of him.

A chunk of metal that sparkles in golden light.

It had an angular shape, as if someone had carved it out of parts.

However, it was dug straight out of the mine and placed in front of Bahamut.

It was different from the polished gold he had taken with him to trick Linda earlier.

In other words, this shape is the natural appearance of this metal.

Bahamut, who knew what it was through the knowledge he had accidentally seen on the Internet, grabbed the metal with a slightly shaking hand.

And..

“bang!”

“Why… why?”

“… master?”

Bahamut picked up a lump of metal and threw it away

At this, Isolda and Ophelia were engulfed in bewilderment for a moment.

And..

“Ha.. hahahaha.. ahahahahaha!!!!! Ahahahaha!!!!!!”

The next moment, Bahamut starts laughing in a creepy voice.

The emotions contained in it were so complex.

Laughter that feels dejected, angry, and strangely exhilarating at the same time.

“Ah..hahahaha..sueueup… haaa… … ”

Then, at some point, he stopped laughing and at the same time let out a slow, deep sigh.

And..

“Ophelia.”

“N.. yes.. yes? Why… why do you do that?”

The next moment, the owner calls himself with a cold voice as if cold air is overflowing.

Ophelia answered with a trembling voice for a moment, and Bahamut, looking at her, commanded in a surprisingly calm voice.

“There is no contract. Take care of it according to the original schedule.”

“Yes? Ah..b.. yes. I understand, master.”

Following that, Ophelia went out to deliver the order.

After Ophelia left, the remaining Isolda carefully approached the metal Bahamut threw.

A chunk of metal that shimmers with a yellow light.

After picking it up, Isolda began to frown slightly as she checked it slowly.

“Bahamut… This..”

“That’s what you’re thinking.”

“..wonderful. If this is something from that gold mine, it wouldn’t even be worth considering the contract.”

Likewise, Lee Sol shows off a dejected voice.

Then, as if she wasn’t interested, she set the lump of metal aside and asked Bahamut in a calm voice.

“If this happens, the lord’s fate is obvious… what will she do?”

“That woman?.. oh.. that Sister Linda.. no. Are you referring to the impostor Linda Halls?”

“yes. I’m just saying this just in case, but I don’t intend to be merciful to her…”

“Don’t worry, unlike you, that bitch is a devil that doesn’t even have room for that.”

Bahamut speaks in a voice filled with deep displeasure.

In response, Isolda asked him with a slightly surprised expression.

“But… isn’t the ability a little wasteful? You, too, have been so merciful to me in the end. If you use it well…”

“You, Lee Solda, are 1000 times better than that bitch. It’s not even worth comparing.”

“!… That. It’s… um… um…”

Bahamut spoke decisively with a cold voice, and Isolda felt that her face blushed slightly without realizing it.

Although that may not be the gist of the story, even though I know it in my head, my heart is slightly excited.

Then, looking at her like that, Bahamut asked in a slightly cautious voice.

“What… Isolda, are you feeling sympathy for that bitch?”

A question with doubts, but Lee Solda immediately sorted out her emotions and answered without hesitation.

“No, I agree with you, she is a monster that makes even me sick. There is no room for rehabilitation…”

“Yeah.. that’s right. The worst human group that shows that there is a floor under the floor..”

With those words, Bahamut leaned back in his chair, briefly recalling the evaluation of the woman named Linda Halls in the original story.

worst.

A human being with no room for regeneration

One of the villains who must be killed unconditionally if given the chance.

There was a clear reason why Bahamut, who even Isolda had accepted, evaluated Linda this way.

Although Isolda was also a formidable villain, there was one thing that even Isolda never did.

hypocrisy.

Behavior that can be called a devil using the mask of goodness to commit evil deeds

The reason why this is terrible is that it is more vicious than monsters like Isolda the Villain.

Monsters don’t know the pain of others. Because of this, there is no hesitation in using others, and he does not bother to hide it.

However, demons in the guise of hypocrisy are very aware of the suffering of others.

Nevertheless, far from reducing it, they use the pain to make fun of others and take advantage of themselves.

Unlike monsters who are indifferent to the suffering of others. Demons rather enjoy and deceive them.

At least the monster had the possibility of correcting its thoughts if it recognized its error.

But in the case of the devil, there was no possibility of that.

because they already know

How much pain can the other person suffer because of you?

Beings who know that terrible fact all too well and have reached the stage where they use it as a weapon and wield it.

Beings who can laugh at the painful deaths of countless people right in front of their eyes.

This is why Bahamut rated Linda the worst. Because of this, he had already made up his mind not to give any mercy when he started this job.

The gold mine was a variable, and it was only shaken for a while. Now that it had become meaningless, there was no reason to hold back any longer.

‘A guy who has no room for rehabilitation should be made to taste hell. Criminal Rights? Stop talking nonsense and start with the human rights of the victims, right?’

Hundreds of people have already been killed or injured by Linda.

People who are deprived of everything and thrown into deep mines, suffering and dying without knowing that they are being used.

Bahamut didn’t really think he was good.

However, at least as a human being, the minimum duty must be followed, and those who crossed that line were treated as something non-human and had a clear idea that they needed to be punished without mercy.

‘Otherwise… only the poor will suffer… just like I did…’

While setting his beliefs right once again, Bahamut came up with the most vicious method he could think of, and decided to put it into practice.
