The crow's cry became clearer and louder.

Adele could even hear the flapping of wings.

She did not escape.

In other words, at this time, she had forgotten to escape, and Adele just stood there, holding [Lupas] tightly in her arms.

Then, she could see the crows.

A crow with blood-red eyes is flapping its wings and flying out from the dark passage behind it!

The feathers of these crows are pure black, but they seem to be glowing with a dangerous, miserable green luster.

And there is obviously no light in the passage, but these strange and terrifying crows can be seen very clearly.

The crows opened their mouths, howled, and flapped their wings and rushed towards Adele.

Already terrified, little Adele stood where she was, just hugging [Lupas] tightly, neither dodging nor dodging.

However, the crow's movements stopped about half a meter away from Adele.

The crows with red pupils and green feathers hovered in the air in a very weird state without even flapping their wings.

Then, they began to twist and intertwine in a hideous and chaotic manner, until no specific shape could be seen.

Those miserable green feathers fell to the ground.

The twisted group of crows continued to merge, and soon turned into a man wearing a robe.

This seemed to be an adult man, and the robe on his body was like a crow's feathers, a dangerous green in black.

The man's face was completely covered by the hood, and the vision in the passage was dim, and Adele couldn't see what the man looked like at all.

"Who are you?"

Little Adele hugged [Lupus] and took a step back. She seemed to finally remember that it was time to run away.

But, she couldn't run away.

"Me?" The person under the hood said, it was a hoarse, magnetic voice of a middle-aged man:

"Me? I have many names. For now, I am Death's entourage, but someday, perhaps soon, perhaps a long time later, I will be Death itself again."

The tone of the man's statement was unusually calm, and at the same time seemed so cold that he didn't have any emotion.

Adele didn't understand the other person's words, and continued to back away while hugging [Lupas].

"Well, little girl, I'll give you this back."

The man under the hood didn't seem to care about Adele's actions, and suddenly preached like this.

Then he shook his hand covered by the robe, and took out a simple-looking, extremely ordinary-looking long sword——

【Pale justice】.

"What's wrong with...my brother?" Adele looked at the familiar long sword, her pupils dilated, her voice trembling.

"Ah, the boy holding this sword just now, is that your brother? Well, he is a very brave boy." The man said, "But, sorry, I may be a little too used to the killing here."

The man in the hood said [Sorry], but there was still no emotion in the words, and his tone was as calm as ice that pierced through the bone.

"Kill...you said kill...my brother, my brother doesn't know you. He...why are you, oh...why..."

Little Adele hugged the doll in her arms even tighter, as if this would bring her a sense of illusory security, her body trembled, and tears welled up from the corners of her eyes uncontrollably.

Facing the man in the form of a crow who spoke terrifying words in an extremely calm tone, Adele couldn't even feel sad normally, it was just fear.

Bone-deep fear.

"If you want to talk about why, it's just on a whim." The man said, "I suddenly felt that before the day I turned back into death itself, I might need a new weapon for self-defense. Your sword is very good."

His tone was still calm.

It was because of this cold and calm tone that his words seemed inexplicably true, as if this man's attack on the Lei Nuo family was really just a whim.

He doesn't care at all.

Adele's heart beat violently.

She didn't understand, totally incomprehensible.

The man in the robe saw that Adele didn't answer [Pale Justice], so he casually leaned his sword against the wall of the passage.

It took little Adele a while to speak: "Why give it back to me, you said what you wanted."

"I don't have to. And it's just a whim. I didn't say it just now, did I? Little girl, you are a bit like my daughter." The man just said that.

His tone remained the same, so flat that it was almost cold, but when he mentioned the word "daughter", there was barely a little fluctuation and change.

Adele looked at the long sword leaning against the corner, her body trembling.

Even this nine-year-old girl couldn't accept what the man said.

What do you mean, [on a whim]?

Why?

Why?

When Adele looked up again, the man who had brought her deep-seated fear had disappeared.

The entire underground passage was dead silent, and even the initial cry of frogs could not be heard.

...

Little Adele dragged [Pale Justice] with one hand and [Lupas] with the other, and walked along the passage in the direction of the fort.

Along the way, she seemed to meet the people who accompanied her into the underground passage.

The knight, the steward, the maid, and her brother...

Little Adele didn't know how much time she spent, and she didn't know how she got out of the underground passage.

But when she returned to the fort, there was only silence in the house.

Guards and servants can be seen everywhere lying on the ground, just like the people in the passage.

They didn't have any scars on their bodies, and their expressions didn't show pain, but they looked unusually calm, but Adele knew that they were all dead...

And the knight, and the steward, and the maid, and her brother, all died.

Little Adele continued dragging her sword and doll, wandering aimlessly and aimlessly through the huge house until she found her uncle, mother, and father.

Slap.

[Pale Justice] and [Lupas] both fell from Adele's hands to the ground.

This girl who was only nine years old couldn't figure out why such a thing happened to her.

Why, everyone is gone?

"Just a whim."

The words spoken by the man I met in the underground passage, words that were so cold that people felt like falling into an ice cellar, echoed in Adele's mind again.

Then, she just stayed beside her father's corpse like this...

It wasn't until an unknown period of time before priests wearing the costumes of the Holy See poured into the fortress of the Renault family.

However, in the huge fortress, the priests only found the youngest daughter of the earl's family.

She is the only survivor.

However, no matter what kind of questions the clergymen asked her at that time, the girl's eyes were empty, and she kept silent with a dull expression.

And before the priests took Adele away.

The nine-year-old girl bent her small body, which was still trembling uncontrollably.

Under her body was an extremely simple long sword, and a rag doll that was originally very gorgeous and exquisite, but now it was full of dirt.

The girl picked up the sword with trembling hands.

Never touched the doll again.
