Chapter 19: Simple Wishes That Can't Be Fulfilled
Just as Canette was about to leave, it seemed that the execution was about to begin in earnest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
So he simply stayed a little longer. After all, this is the most important moment.
The girl seemed to have stopped crying, and instead had godless eyes that had completely resigned themselves to her fate. She was escorted to the execution table, submissively stretched and chained to the cross.
The girl shuddered and closed her eyes. Her fear was palpable.
Knowing what was going to happen next, Canette felt a chill run down her back.
"Please...... I don't want to die yet......" The girl's tears seemed to drain her eyes, because the cross made her unable to turn her head, so she could only hang her head and try to beg for mercy with a hopeless expression: "I ...... I haven't been able to go out of the city to see it in my life. β
It's inevitable...... Canette thought to herself: I sure I won't let them out of custody so easily. They may be able to let off steam, but the majority of their lives will be spent in a prison cell.
Apparently, the girl's plea for mercy was drowned in the waves like a drop of water in a tsunami.
No one responded at all. And the girl didn't seem to want a response.
Maybe she's just subconsciously talking to herself? maybe.
Despite the shouts of the people around her, Cannet's hearing caught the girl's voice. But the others don't have the senses of demon hunters after all.
Well, let me see what you're thinking...... Taking a deep breath, Canette switched the red MONOCULUS to blue and stared into the girl's eyes.
The emotions I read are filled with sadness, fear, confusion, helplessness, and doubt.
Of course, there is also anger and resentment. However, these seem to have been diluted by the emotions above.
In this girl's heart, what she was thinking about was a long time ago.
At that time, Dad was running around holding her hand, and Mom was looking at her happily.
And now the parents are ......
All the girl was thinking about was something from a long time ago.
She seemed to be trying to distract herself from thinking about the impending death. It seemed that she didn't know what kind of punishment she was going to sufferβit wasn't the kind of criminal law that would have freed her so quickly.
It seems that the Holy See didn't tell her how to kill her. So this girl is not mentally prepared to accept long-term torture.
According to Carnett's estimate, after the cross triggers the needle prick, she will be impaled through many inconsequential places on her body and slowly bled out.
To use an analogy, it's like an iron virgin (a humanoid iron frame with double doors) that is specifically designed to torture rather than execute. The prisoner can stand inside and close the two sides together. When the prisoner is tortured, he is placed in a hollow inside the iron virgin, and then the door is closed, and the prisoner is pierced by the nails in the door. Certain Iron Maidens can torture people for days before they die).
A rough estimate of the performance of this cross...... Carnet was silent for a moment, and then fell into thought: she would probably have to be pierced on the cross for about three days before she would bleed to death. Because she was locked so tightly, she couldn't move around to widen the wound and die more easily. And the pain stops the brain from thinking a lot.
During this time, someone may come to feed her water and wipe her body. The church did this deliberately, perhaps in order to use this "sacrifice" more effectively for some kind of faith consolidation and deterrence.
It's horrifying. This is enough to make many people shy away from black magic. Because people always think of how miserable these girls died, so they put themselves in danger.
The girl's mind, Canette felt she had read enough. But there was one thing that made him helpless: the girl was still dreaming, trying to convince herself that it was going to be over.
And the other point is even more distressing. She actually begged in her heart that her parents could forgive her after her death, and at least come to the grave to see her every year. It seems that the girl doesn't quite know why she has to die, or that it's not her fault.
Your dad probably won't go to the grave...... Canette glanced at the girl's dad and frowned.
This simple dying wish is really poignant.
Suddenly, the crowd fell silent. Because the Holy See is beginning to maintain order.
After another formal-sounding speech, it seemed like it was really time to get to the point.
A priest read some of the words of the canon to the maiden, and then retired from the execution table.
The proclamation of the execution has finally begun.

"I'll tell you, young man. Lucina was in the classroom leisurely class, gulping on bread, making her voice slurred: "Learn more from my sister, and you won't starve to death when you go out in the future." β
Although Lucina is quite good-looking even in Ayari, her cheerful and outgoing personality and insensitivity to the relationship between men and women make her have a lot of friends for both men and women.
Not to mention her small breasts is the only taboo in talking to Lucina.
Otherwise, you will be frozen in ice.
"Teacher, aren't we going to learn how to summon magical creatures in this lesson?" one student asked, raising his hand.
"Wow...... It seems that there is such a thing. Lucina chewed on her bread and seemed to be lost in thought: "Hmm...... Strange? Did I say that?"
"Yes......" replied the students weakly.
Is it really possible to get good grades by studying magic with Lucina...... Some people began to question it involuntarily.
Aya shifted her sitting position and patted the crumbs of bread on her legs, causing them to fall off her stockings. Underneath her ass sits a slime as a cushion.
Lucina didn't seem to be too lazy to go to class, so she looked out the window and felt bored: "Hey...... It's so boring to go to class, let's go out and have fun. β
"Really?!" immediately piqued the students' interest. So they all began to cheer.
"Of course, follow me, my sister will teach you how to skip class!" Seeing that the students were also interested, Lucina smirked and stroked her hair, and summoned a piece of bread again. With a wave of his staff, he unleashed the slow-fall technique on the students: "Come, just jump through the window." β
However, at this time, Manus came to check the lesson. The plot ends with Lucina being taken away by her father.
This story tells us that it was easy to carry Aya away, and the strength of one hand was enough.
