Chapter 290 (1/2)

Time for us to head back to Estel. As always, it's hard for us to leave the orphanage, as our siblings from another orphanage feels reluctant to let us go, keep begging us ”one more day” ”one more day” all the while hanging tight to our clothes. It's hard for them and even harder for us, but

”They will come back. They WILL definitely come back, so let us pray for their safe journey” [Nun C]

”True. All we can do for now is to pray for them, but when the times come, don't hesitate to call for our help” [Khamishah]

”We will. We will definitely come back” [Elise]

”Until then, please keep praying for us” [Kara]

”Then we can have another sweet snack time with everyone” [Charlotte]

”Bye-bye” [Miriam]

”Please take care. It's a shame that Anjin and Kucin was suddenly called elsewhere, but I'll tell them about the three of you coming here” [Female black cat]

With the farewell, we went to the designated spot for inter-dungeon bus golem, where fortunately enough, Mr Bond is our driver once more. The passenger however...

(Since Elise didn't make any fuss about it, I guess I shouldn't as well) [Charlotte]

Plus, there are few more beastmen, and no ruckus is made by any one of them, so I should just stay back and maybe keep a bit of my guard up. Still, somehow, two of the figures seems odd? Familiar? I don't know, but they don't really emit any aura of dangerousness from them, which somehow makes my anxiety shoot up even more

As the bus leave the dungeon, my mind beginning to drift. Sometimes seeing out of the window just to see the view. It's the same as always, but with nothing better to do after reading a book and talking with Elise and Kara, the view become an interesting one. Plus, I can spot any devils should they decide to attack us, so I am technically watching over for all of us

Anyway, back to the old follower, I don't know why, but every single time I meet with an avid old follower, I somehow get some unease feeling, and when they're having a quarrel with the new religion follower, it feels like some kind of bomb exploded, and this feeling... Sis Diana and Saintess Rumia did discuss about the possibility of religious war, and with how Saintess Angela is one of the ten commanders for the fallen god, I could see it happening, but...

(How will they use them? Turning them into a devil? Or as a sacrificial paw...) [Charlotte]

~BOOM~

~Glass shattering~

”Wind wall!” [Kara]

”!” [Charlotte]

”Kucin sure is fast to react” [Elise]

”True, I just hope the preparator survive. I need to heal him up so that we could gain some more information” [Kara]

”WAIT? What just happened?” [Charlotte]
