Kiki-
Late evening.
Hare opened the door and went into a dark room.
Even if you fight, there are things you have to do.
‘I don’t even want to see your face… I can’t… ‘
I can’t help it.
Because a promise is a promise.
Entering the room, Hare sat down at her desk and looked at Saten, who was reading a book by a single candle, she said.
“… Because I don’t want to see your face. Let’s talk quickly.”
“The same goes for me, Hare. I’m glad I can’t see your face because it’s dark. Even the little cats say they don’t like it, so let’s end it quickly.”
Tak-
Saten closed the book and moved the candle to the floor.
Hare sat across from her with her familiar face, facing Saten.
The two started talking with a candle in the middle.
“Today, the man punished us. And, I didn’t directly issue the penalty. He gave us the power to decide.”
“… Why did you give us the right to decide? I’m all grown up now… ? To get us out… ? What is your uncle thinking… ?”
“Yes, I think it gave us a lot of options.”
Expand the scope of thinking.
It makes you think about the structure of the warrior party.
Based on the uncle’s behavior, Saten made a sharp decision.
“I think we are trying to reduce the part of us relying on the uncle.”
“… So that we can walk ourselves?”
“Yes, sir, you always try to reinforce our own judgment.”
“… It sounds like you want us to leave.”
Kidduk- Kkadeuk-
Hare bit her fingernails out of her anxiety.
Under the circumstances, it seemed that the man would leave him and go somewhere far away.
“Mr. Why do you keep acting anxiously… ?”
“Yes, that makes me a little nervous too.”
“Nyaang-“
Saten also stroked the little cat out of her anxiety.
I don’t want to believe it, I don’t want to think about it.
Hare and Saten, who are on the quick-witted side, couldn’t sleep comfortably because the uncle’s behavior kept getting suspicious.
“Without the compass, the party of warriors would eventually get lost.”
“… Saten, isn’t that the only thing you’re thinking about today’s penalty?”
“Yes, to conclude, the man is slowly trying to make us independent. That is all.”
“… That’s it. Let’s talk about something else.”
The moment when a burning candle is in Hare’s eyes.
Hare frowned as if he didn’t understand.
“Why did you do that to a fainting man? Are you crazy? Be honest. Didn’t you drink holy water?”
“I’m going to take medicine because I’m crazy. I was just being honest with my feelings.”
Saten asked what a big deal it was, and she answered calmly.
Of course, there was no way Hare would have liked that answer.
“… Are you just being honest with your feelings? What are your feelings?”
“I want to hug the person in front of me. I want to kiss you I always want to be with you. I thought that, so it must be love. My feeling is love.”
“What, what… ?! That, what are you talking about now… !! Uncle said I liked him first… !! You know… !!”
“Yes, I know. So what does that matter?”
“Hey, your conscience is dead, Saten… ? I should have killed you then… !!”
“Ha.”
Saten let out a laugh.
“Can you kill me? You lost to me and talk a lot.”
“No, who lost… !! Because your wounds were more… !? If I really tried to kill you, you are in the sky now… !!”
“Still, seeing as they say it is heaven, it must be hell.”
“… Everyone who helps you goes to heaven. You’ll be killed by me soon, but you’ll still go to heaven. I know you’re lucky.”
“That is scary. Still, since I took your lips, it would be okay if I died.”
“This, this b*tch… !!”
Beep-
Hare stood up and looked down at Saten as if to kill him.
‘I don’t have a dagger… Do you think you can conquer it now… ‘
She checked the situation around her and ran her simulation on how to fight.
However, at that moment, the uncle’s voice passed through her head, which calmed her down and she sat back down.
“… Because the old man made a rule not to fight. I’ll take a look at you.”
“That’s a good excuse. Actually, I have no desire to fight either. I just wanted to let you know.”
Saten crossed the candle and declared war on Hare’s ear.
“It would be difficult to act like a good kid to get a man. She’s all alone, so don’t act like you’ve already got her hands. You know?”
“… Also, you’re annoying.”
“Like you, I don’t want others to take away what I want. So I’m warning you. Don’t take it easy.”
If others easily see what I care about.
Because there’s nothing more infuriating than that.
After Saten whispered her heartily to Hare, she headed back to her own seat.
The two sat across from each other growling and exchanging glances.
It was the moment when they realized that they had become colleagues and competitors at the same time.
“… If you interfere with my plans, I will kill you.”
“Yes, do whatever you want. More than that, how did you explain the reason we fought?”
“I said you touched my family.”
“Hmm, that’s not a bad answer. Thank you for hiding the truth.”
“… “
Thanks to me.
Saten, what is he thinking?
Although Hare had many conversations with Saten, she still couldn’t understand Saten’s thought circuits.
Unlike the first time I saw her, her personality changed a lot, and her emotional expression increased, so it was difficult to understand her.
‘… You don’t have to understand him anyway. I just need you.’
Kill all the demon lords.
I’ll eat rice with you in the morning, drink tea at noon, and sleep with you at night.
Hare said it’s safe to say that she only lives for it.
“Now that we have finished talking. I’ll leave.”
“Wait a minute, there is something unfinished.”
“… What do you have?”
Saten calls and stops Hare from leaving.
Saten looked at Hare like that and shouted confidently.
“We have to finish a fight that ended in a draw. I won, but they don’t admit it. Then, we’ll have to play cleanly again.”
“… So, let’s fight now? Breaking your rules?”
Hare, who was very sharp, answered sharply.
She is very stressed and sensitive.
Saten shook her head to her side as if she wasn’t like that.
“Still, you can’t break the rules. That’s what your uncle said.”
“… Then what are we going to do?”
“Let’s do this.”
After-
Saten blew out the candle.
Then, she got up from her seat and headed to her own desk.
She said, gently stroking the uncle’s cane on her desk with her finger.
“Who more. We compete by helping the uncle.”
“… Isn’t that what I win? Am I still winning?”
“If it’s you who always sticks next to you like a chewing gum, that is. So, let’s just watch one day and win.”
A day.
What does that mean?
Hare noticed without much hesitation.
“… The next demon Are you talking about the Demon Lord in the Goddess Church?”
“Exactly, that day. Which of the two is more helpful? Let’s try to cover it up.”
I don’t have any reason to leave it out.
Hare was confident in the match, so he nodded his head towards Saten.
And Saten, who inherited the staff from his uncle, was also confident in winning.
‘I can definitely win that match. Because I have the information.’
So, Hare and Saten burned their enthusiasm to annihilate the demon lord, not knowing that the uncle would leave them sooner if they caught the demon lord quickly.

Estiya had a dream.
She dreams of living happily in the orphanage she used to live in.
Reciting catechisms and singing in chorus every lunchtime, the happy dreams.
Estiya had a dream that could never be seen in real life.
“Ugh… I hate… “
It’s a nice dream, but…
I don’t want to see you again…
From noble mtl dot com
Estiya struggled to sleep in the moving carriage.
“Go away… You guys should go back now… “
The children approached Estiya with their hands outstretched.
He smiled and said let’s get along just like the old days.
However, behind them was the experiment table we saw in the basement.
“Ugh, ugh…” Me, go away… ! When you come, I will purify everything… ?!”
Don’t come!
Don’t come!
Even so, Estiya’s friends smiled broadly and gradually approached.
“Oh, don’t come! Week, week!? Are you ignoring me as a saint?! Hey, hey!!”
Estiya is bigger.
She shouted, “Don’t come closer.”
But she only yells at the approaching children.
With her violent behavior, she couldn’t get them out.
“Ugh, ugh…” Let go of this… “
“Estiya.”
“Oh, brother… Where are you… Save her saintess immediately… “
In the end, Estiya was caught by the children.
She shouted, looking around her and eagerly searching for her uncle.
However, there are only countless experiments around her.
There was no hope in Estiya.
“Ugh, ugh…” “
“Estiya.”
“Don’t tell me…” !!”
“Why, did you live alone? Leave us behind How could that be?”
“Ugh… I can not hear you… ! I can’t hear anything… !”
Estiya does her self-hypnosis, she shouts that she can’t hear.
The children laughed heartily at Estiya, then opened her mouth grotesquely and said,
“Estiya.”
“Don’t call me by my name… “
“Estiya.”
“That, stop… !!”
“Estiya!!”
“Ugh-!”
Pak-!
Estiya opened her eyes with a strong impact on her head.
She looked around her, and she understood that she was dreaming of her.
“What, what. Are you dreaming? Who than that! The one that hit me in the head!”
“I had no intention of waking up, so I told Luna to wake me up.”
“Oh, brother!!”
Estiya looked at the uncle with a happy heart.
But that was only for a moment.
Estiya shouted with a frown on her face.
“Why didn’t you save me!”
“… What do you mean?”
“You should have saved me in your dreams! The saintess almost died in her dream!”
“… Stop talking nonsense and wake up now, Estiya.”
“Eh?”
“Look out the window.”
Estiya followed Lee Jun-woo’s words and checked her window.
There was a tall building she always saw in the old days.
“Cult!”
“Yes, it is a church. And we intend to demolish that tall building today.”
Lee Jun-wu said that and handed over the robe to Estiya.
“Put it on, it’s time to begin your revenge.”
“… Arseo.”
Estiya hardened her expression as she was handed the priest’s uniform.
I didn’t have the heart of revenge.
‘If there is a child just like me! I’m going to save them!’
The word salvation was firmly engraved on Estiya’s head.
Even if my thoughts are strange sometimes.
She was a saint to the core.
