The world doesn't need succubus to save

Chapter 529 There is no other way!

crunch, crunch, crunch...

One tall and two short figures walked across the snow, and the three of them left three strings of footprints on the white ground.

The two children looked like they were only five or six years old, and they both looked cute with pink makeup and jade.

"Father, where are we going?"

The man was silent for a while, and said in a hoarse voice:

"...Let's go to be heroes."

"Hero! I want to be!"

The boy on the right became excited, bouncing and shaking his father's arm, and then asked the child on the other side:

"What about you? Do you want to be?"

Holding a child's hand in each hand, the bearded Jia Silin had a cold expression, but her eyes were full of pain.

"Of course I know that waiting for them to grow up is the best choice! But now, we have no time for them to grow up."

"You can turn back now and take the children back! I'll just pretend that you haven't been here, and no one will blame you."

But looking at the two children again, Habalon had no choice but to give up. He said to the boy who was being held by Jacelin's right hand:
"Ash, you go and take your younger brother Cairns to play for a while, your father and I have something to talk about."

Jacelin waved her hand and knocked off Habalon's palm.

Habalon, who was about to growl, shut his mouth suddenly, and smiled at the older child that Jacelin was holding with his left hand.

A short figure walked out from behind the broken wall, glaring and questioning:
"Jacelyn! Do you really understand what you're doing!?"

Habalon sighed, and then patted Jacelin's shoulder vigorously:

Patting his chest hard, he blinked at Ash who was only a little shorter than himself:
"Don't worry, after we finish talking, Uncle Habalon will take you to a snowball fight! He will even sing for you! He will never lie to you!"

"I felt something was wrong yesterday, but I didn't expect you to actually do this!"

"No, nothing, I just..."

He softened.

The cuter the children were, the more he regretted putting those responsibilities on their shoulders.

"We'll figure it out, just give us a little more time!"

"Believe me, we've faced tougher situations, but we survived"

The two boys were startled by the sudden shouting, and subconsciously shrank their necks, while their father seemed to have expected this for a long time, looking forward calmly.

"If this continues, everyone will die."

Grabbing Jacelin's skirt, Habalon roared angrily:

!!!

The laughing boy suddenly froze for a moment, because he noticed how unfamiliar his father was looking at him.

Before the recovered father had time to explain, a loud drink interrupted the rest of his words.

"You!"

After getting permission, Ashle ran to hold his younger brother's hand, and ran directly to the ruins beside him.

As the child grows, Jia Silin's heart is constantly changing.

"........."

"I shouldn't put those responsibilities on them. It's me who hurt them."

"Hmm! That's great! Then we can be heroes together! Hmm... Father?"

Limping forward, Habalon leaned on a wooden crutch to block Jacelin's body, raised his head and glared at her.

It was a timid-looking boy who shrank his body behind his father with some fear at the moment.

"You know, they don't mean that."

"Jacelyn!!!"

"You man, did you listen to me?"

The chapped lips moved, and Jia Silin swallowed hard the saliva in her mouth, and said slowly:
"We don't know why [Goddess of Ice, Snow and Plague] fell here, but the gods have already fallen...the gods never consider us."

Unlike the excited child, the child on the other side looked exactly the same, but his expression was full of anxiety, but he still whispered under the gaze of his brother:
"I want, too."

"It's just too tense! Relax! The situation is not as difficult as you said!"

It wasn't until the boys' voices faded away that Habalon sighed decadently:

Father, do you seem very sad?

Grabbing his shoulders with hatred, Habalon raised his head and said seriously:
"Otherwise, do you think I will agree with those people to conduct various experiments to explore magic power?"

"I beg you, wake up, Jacelyn!"

"How long has this winter been going on? We're stuck on this island, and although we can still fish from the sea, there's still less and less food to eat."

Since there is only this one method... that's the only way to do it, isn't it?

"I understand, I really understand..."

"Don't let yourself regret!!!"

"........."

But as soon as he broke free from his hand and wanted to leave, Ash remembered that he didn't sneak out this time, but was with his father...

"Ahahaha, don't be afraid, don't be afraid! I'm just joking with your father!"

"Do you think I want to do this!? They are my children!"

Ash blinked, then carefully slipped his hand back into his father's.

"And! Even they are just using themselves as test subjects, and they don't intend to use others to try!"

Snapped.

"……Ugh!"

Jia Silin was very calm at the beginning, but the more he talked, the more painful his expression became.

Habalon scratched his hair in pain, growling:
"It's true that Ash and the others have the talent to serve as containers for gods, but ah! They are too young to hold those at all."

"I'll go with them, they won't feel alone."

Kneeling in the snow, the collapsed Jia Silin wanted to roar.

"Come here for me."

The never-ending snowflakes fell, but Jia Silin, who was glared at, did not waver. He just spoke in the same pain:
"But for now, it's the best way, isn't it?"

"Great!!!"

"...You guys go play first, don't go too far."

"You understand!? If you really understood, you wouldn't want these two children to send off... Tsk!"

Usually they are not allowed to get close here, but it has been a long time since he wanted to come here!
The child left, but the two adults fell into silence.

"We haven't used the supplies we originally stored, don't worry, we can last a long time."

"Did you know!? You are killing them!!!"

With dry laughs, Habalon glared at Jia Silin fiercely, and growled in a low voice:

"Regret? I regret it a long time ago!"

"Those guys are just proposing a possibility, and no one can guarantee success."

Do you want your kids to die! ?

Unlike the timid Keynes, Ash didn't look scared at all. Hearing this, his eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously:
"Ok!"

Seeing Habalon's steadfast gaze, Jacelin was a little shaken.

"……Really?"

Are these all true?

　I have work tomorrow, at least work overtime in the afternoon until three o'clock in the morning...
