Pseudo-Villaines

Do You Want Power?

Jeanne and Hanna return to the knight headquarters after investigating the assault case committed by the [Cult Of Savior]. Actually, this investigation is not so thorough. It was because the church knight order took over the task.

Jeanne had no personal problems with the Ariana church's knight order, but apparently not with Hanna and her men.

It was seen when the church officials came to take over the investigation. Hanna and the other knights made bitter expressions on her face and refused to speak. Be Jeanne who talks to them.

"Jeanne, why did you give them the right to investigate? Can't we do that?"

Arriving at the knight headquarters, Hanna could no longer hold herself back from asking. There is a demanding tone in that question. With a gentle look, Jeanne patted Hanna on the shoulder.

"Hanna, church authorities have a better understanding of the cult of salvation than we do. They have more accurate information and a strong spy network. Therefore, handing over the task of investigation to them would reduce the burden of our duty."

Hanna thinks what Jeanne said makes sense. The royal knight order did not have enough resources to take care of this matter. But still, Hanna was dissatisfied.

As a best friend, Jeanne knew exactly what Hanna was thinking. Therefore, he tried his best to calm Hanna down.

At that moment, Jean approached Jeanne and Hanna and greeted them both.

"Good afternoon, sister Jeanne, Miss Knight. Sorry to bother you both."

Jean politely lowered her head. Jeanne and Hanna smiled gently.

"Ah, good afternoon Jean. No, you're not bothering us. In fact, we feel grateful that there was not a single casualty from the residents and the knight order."

"Yes, your brother was right. If we could, we might give you an award. Unfortunately, that's impossible. Ah, how about we have a drink tonight? We'll treat you."

Jean just smiled with a faint smile. Well, not a bad choice. There's no reason to refuse, right?

"alright. Let's meet tonight. See you soon."

As soon as Jean was gone from their sight, Hanna nudged Jeanne's arm. Jeanne looked at Hanna who was struggling.

"Nee~ Jeanne, I thought your sister was so cool! You should tell me more about him!"

Jeanne just sighed. She was so happy to hear Jean being praised. But at the same time, I was also angry. Hanna will definitely chase after him!

The two girls joked for a moment. Afterwards, they return to their respective posts to continue their unresolved work.

Meanwhile in the mansion of count Krzys, a man in his 40s was sitting in his study chair. On his face, an angry, sad, annoyed, and moody expression was clearly visible on his face. Mixed into one.

Breath is heavy. Head pain. This was all because the son who would become his heir, Szymon, had again contracted a strange disease. Now, the boy was cowering under his blanket while struggling in fear.

"What really happened to that kid? This was already the second time since he had returned from the border forest. The experts from the palace and the church don't even know what hit him."

Count Krzys sighed for the umpteenth time. No matter how hard the effort to treat her son's illness, she still found no way.

Meanwhile, Szymon who was cowering under the blanket could only shiver. The shadow had not disappeared from his head. The shadow of him being killed by thousands in a very cruel way. Imagination of him who got death in a very poignant way.

At that moment, a voice called out to him. The sound came from his head. Szymon who was afraid to curl up even deeper. But the voice did not disappear. Until finally.....

"O Lord Szymon Krzys, the one who has been chosen by the gods and goddesses to be reborn. Do you want strength?"

The question surprised Szymon. He harbors his fear. In his shadow, a person who was not clear who it was with a black cloth covering his entire body came to meet him.

That way, this is Szymon's first encounter with a mysterious person who calls himself [Apostle]
