Chapter Eighty-Six: Elulus and the Sons of the Damned
Esther walked on the road indifferently, going to the Tiantong Civil Security Company to send a bounty, for him it was just a gesture, and the acquaintance with Tiantong was just a small thing in his life.
But the only good thing is that there is one more stranger in this world.
This world is not a world he is familiar with like "One Piece" or "Fairy Tail", and he doesn't know where the world is going, so all he can do is to save this world as much as possible.
As I thought before, even if the Blood Weapon is created, it needs to be used.
Then manpower is needed.
The police are the world's power against antigenic intestinal animals, and it is more appropriate for them to use the blood that will appear in the future than ordinary people.
But he never ignores the inferiority of human beings, and the people he chooses must be those who are genuinely willing to save the world as their goal, not those who are sinister.
He didn't want the weapons he had worked so hard to build become a force for the evil people to bring disaster to the world.
Suddenly, a commotion interrupted Esther's train of thought, and when she looked at the source of the sound, she saw a tattered girl dressed in rags, with a black and gray face, about ten years old, who was panicking and running away from the crowd as if she were desperate.
The girl was carrying bread or something in her arms.
Behind her was a group of murderous spirits, yes, not anger, but murderousness, a kind of malice that wanted to kill the girl.
Esther could probably guess the reason, probably because the girl stole something!
But what made him feel dazed, even so, should not cause so much malice in the crowd.
The crowd around them, who had been holding to watch the excitement, suddenly, got out of the way, and Esther clearly noticed that the emotions of those people changed from curiosity, to coldness, disgust, and even hatred, and left quickly.
Esther frowned, her body shook, and he saw the girl's exposed eyes, which were a pair of crimson eyes.
Cursed Child.
Esther was silent, no wonder those people had such emotions.
The girl panicked, and ran to Esther in a panic, maybe just paying attention to the people behind, and really ignored the present, and was about to collide with Esther.
At this time, the girl realized that Estrid existed, and stopped in a panic.
But as the speed slowed down, the girl's expression became frightened, and even slowly turned into despair.
The pursuers surrounded the girl, each with hatred on their faces.
"Abominable monster!"
"How dare you appear here!"
"Man-eating bugs!"
"her!"
Several people reached out and grabbed the girl, making the latter even more panicked and frightened.
"Let go of me!" The girl shouted, and the small body actually burst out with great strength, throwing out the people who were holding her, knocking down many people.
However, such a move made the surrounding crowd who had stopped and watched become hideous.
"Damn it, kill her!"
"You should have hurt someone!"
"You should have killed her, you shouldn't be alive if you eat people and bed bugs!"
The girl became frightened and desperate, but she would not let go of the bread with one hand.
Esther's brows furrowed deeply, and anyone who was familiar with him would understand that Esther, who looked like this, was angry.
stepped forward, pulled his hand, pulled the girl behind him, and directly turned into Esther to face these people.
"Little ghost, who are you, do you know who you are sheltering?
Beware of her turning into an archarab and eating you! ”
Esther didn't speak, and the girl behind her froze in place because of the sudden change.
A middle-aged man saw that Esther ignored him, so he reached out to grab the girl.
Syllable~
One hand grabbed the middle-aged hand, and it was none other than Esther.
With a slight force on the hand, the bones of the middle-aged hand rattled sound.
"Ah~"
Screams of pain, "Let go, let go, it's going to break!" ”
Bang~
Esther shook his hand and threw him directly to the ground, then took out some money from his arms and threw it in front of the other party, "I bought the bread that this kid stole it, get out now!" ”
Esther touched a sword at his waist.
The onlookers were shocked by Esther's momentum, and their faces were filled with shame, but when they saw the sword at Esther's waist, they lost the courage to step forward.
"Cut, it's actually a policeman, no wonder he would shield her."
"After all, it's a tool to make money."
"What a bad luck!"
The crowd looked at the girl with three points of viciousness and left one after another.
"Come with me!" Esther spoke.
With that, Esther walked forward.
The girl behind her hesitated for a moment, and followed behind Esther with the bread in her arms.
The two kept walking, both silent.
When he reached a place where there was no one left, Esther stopped, and the girl with her head down hit him directly on the back and fell to the ground.
Esther turned around, and the girl's frightened body shook, "Yes...... I'm sorry! ”
"Why steal?" Esther asked, his voice unhurried, gentle and calm.
The girl was stunned for a moment, and hugged the bread in her arms, "Because, because there is nothing to eat, everyone will starve to death!" ”
The girl's voice was low, perhaps because she blamed herself for stealing.
"They!" Esther's eyes sank, "Take me to where you live!" ”
Esther's voice was filled with regret.
"Please don't hurt them, I can be your weapon and help you make money, they are still young!"
The girl's voice was urgent and panicked.
She knew that Esther was a police officer, and she wanted to trade herself for the safety of those children.
Hearing her words, Esther's eyes softened, and he reached out and touched her head gently, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you, I swear by the elves!" ”
Although she didn't know what kind of god the elf was, the girl felt kindness from Esther, and the hand above her head conveyed the warmth that made her feel flustered.
The girl hesitated, nodded, and got up from the ground.
"My name is Esther Renault!"
"Ai ...... Ellulu's little face was a little red, and the moment Esther's hand was taken away from her head, she actually felt a little lost.
……
Esther's face was a little gloomy, and not far from him were the seven children led by Ellulu, who were eating bread in small bites.
Seven pairs of eyes quietly watched him, except for the pair that belonged to Ellulu, the rest were vigilant.
To these children, who were no older than ten years old and the youngest was only five or six years old, he was a stranger, a stranger to wary of.
Ten and even Esther could feel the enemy in their eyes, and it was hostility towards humanity
These children are the children of the damned.
This is the closest place to the megalith, and it is also known as the Ruined Land.
There are no police, no police, and no civilized order.
Therefore, these children survive here and have long learned to be wary of being hostile to the rest.
Elulu was the oldest of them, the first of the beast's Cursed Sons, who had been taking care of the young girls.
"Will you come with me?" Esther asked.
No one spoke, still staring at him with wary and hostile eyes.
Even Ellulu didn't speak.
"Hey~" Esther sighed and turned around and left the place.
Ellulu breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a little lost in her heart.
The rest of the children leaned next to Ellulu, still eating quietly.
"Sister eat!" A little girl held the bread and said in a weak voice.
Ailulu came back to her senses with a smile on her face, "Sister is not hungry, you eat first!" ”
There's not a lot of food! Save some food.
Ellulu thought to herself, after all, she was almost caught this time, and she would not be so lucky next time.
A few older girls, of course, knew their situation, and after only a few bites, they put away the bread despite their hunger.
The younger ones, seeing that the sisters ate very little, also learned to behave, but they ate less than a third, so they stopped eating.
Ellulu feels distressed!
Perhaps, if it really becomes a tool, it will be able to feed them!
……
Pedal Pedal Pedal ~
The sound of footsteps woke up the girls who were leaning on each other.
I saw a man walking over with a bag several times larger than him.
I don't know why that small body has so much power.
"Sorry to bother you!" Esther placed the bag on the ground and said softly.
No one answered him, there was only hostility, vigilance, scrutiny.
Esther didn't care, still with a gentle smile on her face.
One by one, I took out the contents of the bag.
"This is a blanket, spread on the ground to keep a little warmer, this is a space quilt is covered! In this way, it is not easy to get cold. ”
Esther said as she took out eight sets of space quilts and blankets.
Put the seven sets not far from the girls, and there is no real closeness.
"This is for you, this set is mine, and from today onwards, I will also make my home here!"
Esther's words didn't make the girls have any mood swings, and none of the blankets and quilts moved.
Esther didn't care, just spread the blanket and sat down cross-legged.
Although Esther didn't look at it, she could feel the girls' eyes falling on her.
In order to prevent the girls from resisting, Esther suppressed the distress in her heart and did not go to see them.
Night soon came, and the cries of protozoans in the distance continued to sound, even getting closer and closer to here.
The wind blows from time to time, with a hint of chill.
The girls snuggled up to each other and warmed themselves with each other's body heat.
Esther could even see that the outermost older girls, their bodies trembling slightly from the cold, still didn't touch what Esther had prepared for them.
A soft sigh sounded in the dark night, and as soon as the thought moved, several stoves prepared in advance in the package quietly appeared, lit, and silently surrounded several young girls, using heat to drive away their cold.
Perhaps because of the warmth, the bodies of the girls no longer trembled.
"If it's just an ordinary girl, I'll definitely get sick the next day!
Enterovirus gives them an extraordinary physique.
But, maybe they would rather not have this physique, and want to be an ordinary person.
No, I want to think by all means!
But fate is so unfair.
Maybe I came to this world to save the world, and these children should also be saved.
Since the people of this world cannot give you salvation, then it is up to me to save you! ”
Esther looked at his hand with a determined look in his eyes.
