"Well that's-" Francis words trailed off as a knock in the door was suddenly heard.
"Come in" Francis said staring at the door.
A man on his thirties then entered the dining hall
How strange. Miho thought to himself as he stares at the man's eyes all it has is whiteness no pupils or iris just blank.
The man with blank eyes then turns his head to the left and right seemingly scanning his surroundings.
"It's about my dream" the man with blank eyes said as he focused his attention on Francis.
The always cheerful expression Francis wears suddenly became serious as he looks at the man with blank eyes then towards Miho's and Azel's direction.
"Alright will you children please leave us alone for a moment?" Francis said as he wore his usual bright smile.
Miho and Azel nods at each other as the two of them stood from the table and walks towards the exit of dining hall.
Soon after Azel and Miho left the dining hall Pyra also went out of the dinning hall as the three of them then sat at the living room the red head being on a distant chair combing her hair.
Several minutes have passed and Francis finally exit the dining hall with a concerned look on his face as he lets out a sigh.
"I need to do this" Francis said to himself now wearing a determined expression as he then starts walking towards Pyra's direction who's still combing her hair.
I wonder what he meant. Miho thought to himself as he watched Francis approach Pyra.
Then........
"Please Pyra help me " Francis said as kneels in front of Pyra begging pathetically.
"Cut it out will you?" Pyra said as she stares at Francis with disgust.
"But you're the only one who can help me" Francis said in a pathetic begging voice as he draws close towards Pyra still on his knees.
"I'm not interested" Pyra said coldly as she turns her back on the priest then proceeds combing her hair.
Francis shoulder sunk defeated as the red haired girl turned him down.
Azel lets out a audible sigh, shaking his head as he then stood up.
"Is there anything we can help father Francis?" Azel calls out to the priest.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
The priest's face then lights up as he quickly approaches Azel while still on his knees.
"Oh right you know magic right my child? Please help me" Francis said excitedly still kneeling as he grabs Azel's hand.
Miho then focuses his attention on Pyra who's still combing her hair he can't help but sigh. She is pretty but too bad her attitude is just....
"What is it about exactly?" Azel asks awkwardly as he pulls his hand and scratches his nape.
"I just had an information that a slave trade is about to take place outside the town and there's a child!! Please we need to save the poor child!" Francis said still on his knees begging.
A snap then was heard towards Pyra's direction and when Miho looks towards her direction what Miho saw was the wooden comb split into two on Pyra's hand. What was that about?.
"I'm coming stupid priest" Pyra announces as she stood up from her seat
"Oh really? i knew it my dear Pyra couldn't resist me" Francis said as he stood up staring at Pyra with a endearing smile.
"Die" Pyra said as she then throws a wooden comb hitting Francis in the head.
I wonder if i can come along I'd love to see how this world looks like. Miho thought to himself excitedly.
"Can i also come along?" Miho said said looking up at the priest.
"You see my child you're still too young and it's too dangerou-" Francis said as Pyra then suddenly interrupts him.
"No, you'll just be a burden" Pyra said as she walks towards the door without looking back.
I- she's probably right. Miho thought to himself as he frowns lowering his head.
"I'll take responsibility for him" Azel said firmly as he grabs Miho's hand which surprised Miho.
Pyra surprised turned her head towards Azel but what greeted her is Azel's sharp glare the red head rolls her eyes in response as she went out of the orphanage.
Miho couldn't help but smile.
Few minutes have passed and they're now traveling outside of town ridding a carriage, Miho and Azel sitting beside each other while Pyra is on the other side with Francis taking reins of the horse.
Hours passed and the carriage finally stopped signalling they reached their destination.
Everyone but Miho went out the carriage then Azel extends his hand towards Miho who's still inside the carriage.
Just when Miho is about to reach Azel's hand.
"Ok this is as far as he can go" Francis said as he holds and pulls away Azel's hand.
"But-" Azel objects staring at the priest
"I'm going be frank it's too dangerous we're not even sure how many people we'll be facing" Francis said in a stern tone.
"But-" Azel tried to object again
"It's alright onii-chan I'll be fine here" Miho said as he forced a smile.
"See? even he gets it, now be a good boy and stay here alright my child?" Francis said smiling at Miho.
Miho nods in response to the priest while Azel is still giving Miho a hesitant look.
"Come on lets go don't be stubborn" Francis said dragging Azel as he's still giving Miho a worried look.
Miho waved at Azel as the priest keeps dragging him.
"How nostalgic " Miho said to himself when Azel is no longer in sight as he then let out a pained smile.
The last time i was left alone in a vehicle was when i was a child. Miho thought to himself as he stares at the driver seat.
"I must say i guess I never got used to be being left alone " Miho said to himself caressing his seat.
"I wonder how is Azel doing? Surely he's beating people up by now isn't it?" Miho chuckles to himself.
Meanwhile Francis, Pyra and Azel are walking towards the direction of a huge abandoned house.
Pyra then suddenly starts walking beside Azel.
What does she want?. Azel thought to himself still irritated by how the red head treated Miho earlier.
"When are you going to tell that Miho kid?" Pyra said leering at Azel.
"Tell him what?" Azel said raising his voice a little irritation is evident in his tone.
"What else? About last night you talking about his parents going somewhere far away " Pyra said raising an eyebrow still leering at Azel.
"Well i-" Azel started stuttering as his hot temper suddenly cooled down.
"I'll find the right time! Miho is probably not prepared to know that yet!" Azel said as he walked a bit faster in attempts to further the distance between him and the red head.
"Guhh!! Of course men and their stupid reasons " Pyra groans as she glares towards Azel's direction.
"And how about you Pyra? Don't you think you're being too harsh on someone who just lost both of his parents? " Francis said which made the red head flinch upon hearing it.
"More than anything what that child needs is someone who will help him" the priest lets out a pained smile.
"Hmmmp" Pyra turns her back on the priest as she goes after Azel.
"Ohhhh right father Francis what's the plan anyway? Are you going to fight them first while we stay behind for backup?" Azel said as he stopped walking turning into the priest.
"Me? Fight them? Don't be ridiculous " Francis said chuckling.
"What do you mean father Francis?" Azel said tilting his head.
"I'm a priest what do you expect me to do? Use holy magic until they become a changed person?" Francis said evidently holding his laughter.
"Then?" Azel said still clueless blinking.
"You are gonna fight them" the priest said with a bright smile.
Me? Fight them?. Azel thought to himself as he points a finger to himself while staring at the priest.
Francis nods in response to Azel's gesture.
"EEhhhhhhhhhhhhh??????"
Do we need Christmas special chapter?
