104 – Those who did not become saints (4)

”…what is the purpose?”

It was a reasonable question.

Now that the identity of the woman who suddenly attacked him had been discovered to some extent, the task left for Beltane now was to figure out the woman’s hidden intentions.

Was he really in a position to ask her a question?

Even if I asked a question, would the woman in front of me answer me honestly?

Deep anguish passed through Beltane’s mind for a moment, but as she had no other choice than this, she had no choice but to lick her dry lips in the end.

”Eh~? We met for the first time in a while, was it like that from the beginning~? Instead, why don’t we talk about our love story? It’s the first time I’ve seen your face since ‘Baptism’, and it’s so desolate when you come and go with such hard words~”

”····!

Beltane’s face turned pale in an instant.

baptism.

The influence of that sentence on Beltane was so great that even just hearing that short word made his undisturbed breathing noticeably look ugly.

Dozens of children gathered around in a spacious, pure white room, and strange men who keep an eye on them and scribble something.

Seongbeopjin densely engraved on the cold room floor. A girl of the same age was dragged out without knowing why to a seat in the middle.

yet.

Beopjin suddenly shines with someone’s resolute voice called ‘beginning’ as a whistle.

A scream resounding with the force to rip your ears apart.

Blood splattered all over the room.

And.

‘I am····! I’ll do it before my sister…!’

The back of a small, slender girl standing in front of him.

The terrible hell is a nightmare that rises inside the eyelids just by closing your eyes without any special process.

It was a nail driven into Beltane’s head that he could not pull out.

”Whoa!”

”hahahaha, what is it? Do you have morning sickness?”

Beltane, who hastily covered her mouth with one hand, sat helplessly on the floor, and the woman’s vulgar mockery pressed her down once more.

However, the current Beltane, who was desperately trying to catch his breath as if hyperventilated, did not have the time to question those insulting words and actions.

how long has it been like that

As if she had fully enjoyed Beltane, who was panting unsightly with her hands on the floor, the woman stretched out pleasantly for a moment and murmured softly.

”Oh, well, how are you?”

”!?”

Immediately after the woman’s sly words echoed in Beltane’s head, the air in the office froze in an instant.

”Oh, who knew that crybaby Wellna would beat us all and become a saint? The incorrigible Wellna who cried out for a butterfly stuck to her head. After all, no one knows what the future holds. Really. I’m envious -”

Udangtang!

The office papers that made up the tower were hit by something like a shotgun and collapsed, and the lamps that chased the darkness of the office were caught up in the commotion and died helplessly.

”Looks like you put even one fingertip on Wellna… No matter what, even if it means selling your soul to the devil, I will definitely kill you…”

”hahahaha, it’s still the same as hanging out with younger siblings♪”

It happened in an instant.

Beltane, who had been sitting helplessly on the floor just moments before, jumped at the woman in front of him, climbed on top of her, and thrust a fountain pen into the mound of her copper neck.

”Yes, that’s how it should be! You have to do this much to be worth teasing! It’s a huge difference from our kids who just stand there without any reaction even if they cut off a finger.”

However, the woman’s resolute demeanor was not even blemished even though the artery was being pressed by a sharp piece of metal.

Even in the thick darkness, the face that was bulging enough to be able to clearly admit it seemed to be enjoying the current situation.

Is it an expression of arrogance that he can subdue the weak himself at any time?

Among the accidents that were swimming in his confused head, Beltane had put in the most plausible hypothesis, but he shook his head.

no. After all, this woman probably has nothing to do with it.

Even if her throat was pierced by this blunt piece of metal right here and now, it was clear that this woman would be able to smile brightly even with a pierced throat.

The series of attitudes the woman in front of me was showing was the height of the bizarre, to the extent that the premonition close to such a ghost story gave me confidence.

”What did you say the purpose was?”

”Wow!”

Charleuk!

The chains that appeared in the air tightly entangled Beltane’s body, which was riding on top of the woman’s body.

Beltane’s murderous surprise attack was stopped because of this.

In an instant, the position was reversed. No, this is also an illusion.

Beltane reaffirmed that he had never taken the initiative in a conversation with this woman, and that he would not be able to hold it forever.

”Huh!”

A moan of pain escaped from her mouth intermittently as the chains entwined Beltane’s curvy body like vines tossed from time to time.

Using that voice as a prelude, the woman continued.

”Of course it’s revenge ♪.”

Beltane, whose arms were entangled in the air while riding on top of the woman. The woman who supported her defenseless chin with her index finger smiled brightly and pursed her lips.

”Even now, when I close my eyes, I remember it well. The image of those guys forcibly pouring this into us who were resisting and crying that they didn’t like it. When the time comes when we fight each other to become saints, and when the time comes, there must be someone who kicked us when he saw us all crying and asking us to go home, right? I’m saying this because we’re alone, but I was actually tired of peeing then? Pooh. Well, fortunately, no one noticed because of the blood gushing out of the holes in his body.”

It was as if they were talking about nostalgic memories.

The appearance of a woman gently caressing her stigmata located on the side of her belly, her eyes closed and lost in untimely thoughts, was so reluctant that it was indescribable.

”You thought you were dead? It felt like the tissues of my body were being torn apart, the blood all over my body was boiling, and all the internal organs were burning. When I was barely breathing with most of my body in ashes, when I was abandoned on the side of a deserted road, saying it was a failure, all I could think of was that I had lived my life. But what? When I opened my eyes, said to be alive Yes, I was alive.”

As the woman’s lively words and actions gradually became indifferent, the air in the office, colored by the ominous thoughts, was also gradually losing its warmth.

”We were alive.”

”Ooh, us!? Wow!”

An outrageous killing spree that erupted once again from around the woman.

The chain, which seemed to have synchronized with the air current, further suppressed Beltane’s body, and then carved a slight scar on her pale cheek.

”Oh sorry? Did I do too much?’

”Wow!”

The woman carefully licked the traces of blood that flowed down Beltane’s cheek and put it in her mouth.

”Umm~♡”

”Keuk, kuk!”

I couldn’t even move my body.

Beltane could be sure that this wasn’t just because of the chains wrapped around his body.

Just as a frog thrown in front of a snake freezes without realizing it.

In the face of this absolute intimidation, he, a mere weakling, had nothing to do but chew on his helplessness.

”ah! I tell you in advance. Even if they survived, how many children are still intact? Among them, there are only a handful of kids who can have a proper conversation, and even though I’m in charge of the role of the eldest sister, I’m honestly not strong enough. Even if you look at it like this, I was a cute youngest child who was pampered by my older brothers. Wherever you go, you are always taken care of! Try not to put water on your hands! Even things like computers are always yielded…”

”····?”

flinch.

Right after the woman’s speech was suddenly stifled, Beltane inadvertently stopped breathing, sensing that something was wrong with the visibly changed air around her.

‘computer····?’

It was an unfamiliar word that even the well-informed woman had never heard before.

password? incantation? Magic?

No, since there was a precedent of someone transferring it, Beltane guessed that it was something that had a specific shape and a fixed number of uses.

”no. this is not this is not my memory go away. Live. go away! no! no! no!! no!!! no!!! no!!! no!!! no!!!”

Beltane’s consciousness was disturbed again by the unexpected change.

Suddenly, a woman grabbed her hair with the momentum to tear it out.

It was infinitely desperate and endlessly desperate, as if he was trying hard to shake off something that crept into his head.

”ah! sorry! How long have you been talking?”

Eventually, the woman, who showed a bright smile that showed no trace of her exasperated expression from just a moment ago, cut something off of herself and was about to start talking again.

”Hero Punch──!!!”

Kugoong-!!!

A roaring voice comparable to that of thunder. A violent shock shook the entire building.

Beltane’s eyes widened as he quickly sensed what the subject of this vibration was, comparable to a natural disaster.

”Yo, hero!?”

”I am… Don’t make a fuss about it… I told you so much that if you fail, just leave me out… sorry. Let’s continue this story later.”

”Wait a minute!”

Even before Beltane’s urgent restraint was completed as a sentence, the woman’s figure, which had formed a clear shape, had already faded like steam.
