Chapter 30
I was tormented by the noise of a woman named Abiah, her name made me sick. Her mother is not an avid fan of the holy names in the bible, I'm sorry.
Abiah, meaning in Hebrew 'God is my father,' out of the many possible names, that's it.
The third time I was tormented by the noise of this woman, not only her name is irritating, but also her attitude and being noise.
"Have you never once in your life been silent for even a few seconds?" I interrupted Pavel's conversation, the four of them looked at me, and I raised an eyebrow at the woman as she laughed.
"I'm sorry, I just got back together with the townspeople, it's a miracle that someone came out of that town to go to the city." The woman said and scratched her head, I just rolled my eyes.
"Does that mean that you used to talk to people in town?" Bael asked.
"It's like that, I was born and raised there, but we also left the town." It said.
"Why? Don't you like the rule of the king?" Pavel asked with a mixture of surprise.
"No, that's not what, the king is good at." She said while smiling.
"Why did you leave?" Cynrad asked, the apple of their eye now is the woman who has a mother that is an avid fan of biblical names, then goes with her.
"Hmmm, it's hard to explain." She said with a serious voice.
"Why did you bring us fruit?" Pavel asked so I looked at her, she suddenly looked at me, and I saw fear in her eyes mixed with hope, I frowned as she looked away again.
"It happened because I brought a lot of fruit that night because there was so much I couldn't carry the bag to put it in, I was supposed to spend the night in the cave but I saw the three of you sleeping soundly." She said, I looked at what I was passing by.
"We are four, Ksara also slept last night," Pavel said so I looked again at the woman whose name was holy, I saw her swallow so my eyes narrowed.
"Yes, there are four of you." She said while not taking her eyes off me. "I also noticed that she had a wound so I treated it." She said so the three of them looked at me at the same time, I frowned and remembered the wound on my arm again. I looked at my arm and saw that there was a clean cloth applied to it and inside there were leaves that I think are medicine for the wound. That's why I didn't feel much pain, I thought that my wound had calmed down.
"What happened?" Bael asked me while looking at my arm, I looked in front of me.
"Insect bite." My answer is short.
"Come on? What kind of insect? That's dangerous, maybe it'll bite you later with poison." Bael said.
"No, if it had poison, I wouldn't have weakened before now," I said then looked at the woman whose name was holy, she suddenly looked away.
"Do you expect me to thank you?" I asked, and she immediately looked at me.
"Oh no." She replied, based on what I smelled, she lied in her explanation earlier. It is not true that she brought many fruits and left some of us. This woman, based on her actions, looks like she knows something she shouldn't know.
"That's good because that's not my style," I said.
"Oh, if you'll be patient with Ksara, she's like that to everyone, including us," Pavel said and put his hand on his head. The holy woman smiled at Pavel.
"It's Okay." She said then became silent.
"What do you say to people who like to listen to someone's conversation?" Suddenly I asked the holy woman so she looked at me and swallowed, I was right. She was there last night and was watching me and my sister. If so, she knows what I am.
"Um... I don't know, m-maybe some just passed by and didn't mean to listen." She said quietly so I looked at her and entered her mind.
"If you want to live long, keep your mouth shut."
I said sharply in her mind, she immediately swallowed and if I read her mind correctly, she even prayed to cause my power to disappear on her. I looked into her eyes without emotion and her fear was obvious.
"Where are you going, holy woman?" I asked softly while trying to enter her mind but there was an energy stopping me, an energy that was not new to me. She was praying in her mind to oppose me.
"In the city too." She answered while continuing to pray, I grinned and nodded then continued walking. People, when they are scared they pray. Weak ones.
There was a long silence between the five of us, maybe because the three of them felt that I didn't want the holy woman who came with us. If this girl continues to join us, it will be difficult for me to carry out my plan with Pavel. Pest.
I took a deep breath and then quietly controlled the three with my power, I entered their minds and told them to sleep, which is why they suddenly lost consciousness while we were walking, the lady who has name Abiah was surprised and then got the sign of the cross, she seemed to know that I was the one who did it, that's why I slowly approached her and stopped when I felt the energy that was protecting her again, I looked at her in her eyes and grinned.
"Tell me, holy woman, what did you hear in our conversation with my sister last night?" I asked, I could smell the fear coursing through her body.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to listen, please forgive me." She said scared and sat in front of me, I sat in front of her and stared at her.
"Answer my question," I said so she bowed even more.
"A-all." She answered. " The deer I caught was running at the place where you were staying, I saw that there was light, so I came closer to hopefully sleep next to you, but I didn't expect what I heard and what I saw, I-I didn't see who you were talking to but I saw how... how you jumped in front of that man and suddenly you were injured and suddenly a sharp object came out of your hand." She explained excitedly.
"Promise... I won't tell what I heard or saw." She said with tears in her eyes, I kept looking at her.
"The fruits, what are they for?" I asked making her look at me.
"W-will offer." She stammered so I raised my eyebrows.
"I-I need you." She said softly and I could see her tears.
"You. I need someone like you to bring me home." She said she was crying so I just stared at her.
"I'm not an angel to help you," I said coldly then turned away from her, I was about to wake up the three when she said something to me that made me stop.
"I...I heard that you mentioned your sister's name... A.. Alada is that right?" She asked so I slowly looked in her direction.
"I...I want... to come home to us... without losing... my memories." She said crying causing my forehead to frown.
"P..please.I'm begging you, I want to see my parents before they...disappear." She said crying causing my palm to slowly clench.
People... even if they know it's not allowed, still, try to get what they want.
