Chapter VI: Date of Execution

"They've read it, haven't they?" said April.

"Definitely, it has to be checked if there is any...... Dangerous intelligence. The man pondered the words for a moment, "No, I should say that I should check if there is any information that suggests the existence of the witch." It's more accurate to say that. ”

"So much blood on the letter......" Aprile looked at the bloodstained letterhead gloomily, unwilling to think too much: "I said, kill it, kill it, there is no way...... But is it necessary to torture her?"

I've long heard that witches will be tortured and humiliated when they are caught......

The Witch Inquisition doesn't hide any of this at all. The acceptance is also quite high.

"What if she conceals the existence of other witch companions? Of course it is necessary to use some ...... Little torture," the man replied in a strange manner, "It has nothing to do with you, miss. Anyway, my letter has been delivered, and it's time to go back. ”

If it's just to get information, it's normal to use torture.

But I've heard that you still don't stop when you ask for what you want. Apparently you find it interesting to torture them...... Or maybe it's just a simple grudge against the witch.

April's face was expressionless, and she didn't show her thoughts: not getting into conflict with these people is a good way to protect herself.

However, why did you give me this commission when I was about to be executed...... While April was worried about the possible torture she would receive, she was even more puzzled by the strange commission: ...... should I go to the trial in a week to get paid?

Looking at the bloody letter again, Aprile already had an answer in her heart.

Probably meant that I would be executed in a week, and then I would go there and get the relics.

Despite her helplessness, what really felt unusual about April was the strange content of the commission.

What kind of monster is on the verge of death and is still in the mood to ask the demon hunter to kill it?

Looking at the place of commission, it should be in the slums.

April thought she would know if she had gone over and seen it for herself.

"Anyway, aren't you leaving?" Aprile looked up, suspiciously asking the man who said she was going to leave but hadn't left yet.

"Because I feel weird too. The man seemed to be really interested: "It's not unheard of to issue a demon hunting commission in this situation." But that's all an exorcism or something. This time it was just for you to kill monsters?"

"It's none of your business. April didn't have a good impression of the man, so she left with a cold face.

"Hmm...... That's right. The man seemed to have something to say, so he reminded him: "It says you'll be paid in a week, right? I've seen her look like that, and she's been tortured like that, because she's too young to live for a few days. However, if they can survive, the specific public date of execution will still be every Sunday. At least until then, if you want to talk, come over. ”

"If I wanted to see her, of course I would have gone sooner. April didn't want to talk nonsense with him, but she still felt a little weird at what the other party had said: "It's weird, you...... Why are you telling me so much?"

Although it's basically nonsense, that's right.

"It's nothing, just a kind reminder. The man was really going to leave this time, and he leisurely straightened his coat and walked out of the alley.

"......" stared at the man who was slowly leaving, and April decided to go to the designated place to take a look.

But before that, she wanted to meet the client.

You don't have to get a license...... April was a little worried: where did the witch inquisition come from?

To get a better look, April spread Aya's wings and flew into the sky. As the city scene became more visible, she hovered there, carefully searching for the location of the Inquisition.

Inquisition...... Inquisition......

Concentrated, Aprili tried to ignore the rumbling in her stomach and searched for the location of the Inquisition.

Which building is more like it?

...... After just looking around, April suddenly noticed that someone was waving at her.

It was Aya, jumping and waving this way.

Intrigued, Aprile flew over. When he got closer, he found Aya on the roof of a building with a puppy squatting beside him.

"What's wrong?" Aprile asked her, puzzled.

"Ah, it's nothing......" leaned over and touched the puppy, and Aya looked quite happy: "I just feel that Aya is quite rare......"

"Indeed, in the past few years, the form has been turbulent, and the Aya have basically hid in Alloya. April's expression was obviously noncommittal, and her attention was instantly drawn to a box of things piled up on the roof: "Huh...... That ......"

"It's the dumplings!" Aya happily pointed to the lively dumplings in the box, "I'm going to send them to the house in a moment." ”

“...... Aren't you going back to Eloa, the city is feeling sick. Aprili looked at the dumplings that were jumping around, and her heart became even heavier: "Anyway, I can't stay here for long." ”

"I'm going to sell dumplings here...... So I can't go back yet. Aya didn't seem to think much: "If I go back, there will be no one to sell these dumplings." ”

yes...... But I feel like there are a lot of dumplings in this city.

"Sister, you're a demon hunter?" Aya exclaimed, looking at April's badge, "Oh...... I know! It's April, right? You were here last time Alloa. It's famous. ”

"Well, yes...... I almost didn't want to leave, and it was easy to eat there. April suddenly sighed with emotion: Elo Asia is suitable for Aya...... I really don't want to go there.

And you can get fresh fine drinks every day. Aloa has a factory that produces them. April had a great time there every day.

...... Until he was dragged back to the academy by Dean Geralton.

"You like selling dumplings so much?" April still likes to talk to Aya, at least it makes her feel less stressed, "I feel like you're quite enthusiastic." ”

"Yes. Na Aiya looked happy: "I feel that selling the dumplings can heal people's hearts!"

Although the dumplings are very cute, can such a thing really be done...... Although April felt that it was time to leave, she still had a whim, and summoned her own dango to show Aiya: "Look, this is my dango. ”

It was a pink dumpling filled with strawberry jam.

It's called Lily.

Lily was thrilled to see the box of gnocchi. So he hurriedly jumped over and mingled with them.

Soon, the roof was full of jumping balls.
