The Little Devil of Sakaz

Who are they?The noble's guard?

"Hey! You little brats! This is the critical moment, don't run around!"

Turning a corner, I heard his voice before I saw him, a very irritable male voice followed by the laughter of several children.

"Oh, don't worry. Those naughty little ones will apologize."

"Uh……"

Sonia was still curious.

What does a team that is heavily armed with weapons but also has children... do?

"Sonia, welcome."

She met Worm and the woman named W in a room located in the middle of the corridor.

"Why do you come to my place so late?"

"This matter... is not easy to talk about."

"Then say no more. Drink some water. If you need any help just tell me, my friend."

Worm saw that she was emotionally unstable and hesitant, so he didn't ask any further questions.

"Well... I know I shouldn't ask, but Worm, what kind of powerful organization are you?"

I sat down, drank a glass of water, and ate two pieces of rusk given by Worm. My stomach was full, my mood was stable, and my raging curiosity was aroused.

"We? We are... rangers."

Worm thought for a moment, and then talked to Sonia using the same vocabulary as he used to talk to other Ursus friends.

The other party might not understand it if you say it's a mercenary, but you should be able to understand it if you say it's a ranger.

"Ranger?! So handsome!"

Young people's minds are always full of fantastic ideas. After Sonia heard that the other party was a ranger team, she thought of many things.

Acting chivalrously, punishing evil and promoting good, robbing the rich and giving to the poor... there are so many things to say.

But these words were stuck in her throat, and not a single word could come out.

She is just a student, still worrying about her studies. She may never have the chance to leave Chernobog in her life. She has nothing to say to Worm, who is walking freely on this land.

There was already a sadly thick barrier between them.

"If... if... Worm, will you still recruit people?"

Compared to staying here for the rest of her life, the highest achievement is to be the squad leader of a certain factory, where she can see the future and life at a glance. Sonia really wants to go out on adventures with her and face the unknown and new life.

"...What we are about to do is very dangerous, Sonia. You have a family, parents, and school. You should not abandon these and follow us in the wilderness...without a fixed place."

Worm would also like to keep those kids if given the chance.But the country will not give them, both infected and sarkazi, a chance.For these children now, having a mercenary status can actually protect them from being harmed by Ursus who seriously discriminate against infected people.

Having said that, who would accept a child who is both a Sakaz and an infected person to live there?

Well, probably they only have Kazdaele.

Worm thought, and then looked at the hesitant girl in front of him.

"Why does Sonia want to leave home?"

You can't be attracted just by hearing that they are rangers.

"Because...because there will be no changes in our current life and our future life unless something unexpected happens, Worm."

Sonia's academic performance is not very good. Even if she works hard in the past few years, she will eventually choose a vocational college with good employment due to family reasons, and then join a factory to make money to support the family. Maybe after many years, she will find someone who is pleasing to her eyes like her parents. Giving birth to little Sonia.

“Isn’t it good to live without change?”

Worm couldn't understand.

Sakaz's life has no fixed track. It would be a good thing for Sakaz if he could have an unchanging life like Sonia said.

You can eat well, sleep well, and wear warm clothes every day. There will be no wars. The hospital for sick people is nearby, and the supermarkets are always filled with fresh ingredients.Perhaps the biggest worry is not knowing what to buy with the money.

Sakaz worked hard to earn money, but the money would soon be invested in updating equipment, replenishing supplies, and recuperating the body. The remaining money would be used to get drunk and relax, almost There will be no deposit left.

"Sonia. Perhaps the unknown life will be full of fun, but it will be accompanied by the same unforeseen dangers. If you are older, I will give you the choice of whether to join, but not now. Please allow me Reject you, reject you when you are still a student, reject you when you are so young, Sonia."

"But Worm, why don't you just..."

After seeing Worm's eyes, Sonia was stunned for a moment.

Yes, why did Worm become a ranger?His age...is almost the same as mine!

And...I haven't met Worm's parents...

Worm's eyes...are they sad?

"Me? Sonia...because we Sakaz have no choice."

63. Sonia’s choice

"What Worm said today makes so much sense."

The little devil raised his face sideways, curled a strand of peach-colored hair with his fingertips, and praised Worm's words in the evening.

"It was Theresa... Theresa told me."

There was anticipation in Worm's voice.

Can I see Theresia tonight too?Will Theresia still tell him those stories full of truth?

"Theresia? Worm...did you dream about Your Highness Theresia last night?"

Dabuliu showed curiosity in his eyes.

Can I really see Theresia in my dream?

She also thought that the banshee only used spells similar to hypnosis.

"Yes. It's exactly the same as Theresia in my memory."

'Fool Worm, that's me, of course it's exactly the same. '

Theresia moved the child's hair, pleased with her own wit.

With the help of the banshee spell, she can talk to Worm in her dreams in the future, tell him what she wants to say and what she wants to warn him, and she can personally teach her children from her dreams. !

"Oh. That's great."

On one side, she was looking forward to the moment of falling asleep. On the other side, Sonia was lying in the room temporarily arranged for her by Worm, thinking about her conversation with Worm that night.

Will she regret it?

Leave your parents, friends, hometown, and everything you have now, just to satisfy your curiosity and realize your fantasy of chivalry?

The wilderness is very dangerous. Worm told her that there would be robbers, wild beasts, and natural disasters. Even the most experienced ranger would overturn his car in the most inconspicuous place, perhaps because of an unknown plant or something. Because of a small Origin Stone Insect, maybe it just stumbled because I didn’t pay attention while walking...

People are mortal.

But death?For Sonia now, she has no impression at all.

The bloodiest scene she had ever seen was probably the basin of blood when the feathered beast was slaughtered.

Although Worm said a lot of things and gave her sufficient warning, people and young people would not be reconciled unless they went to see for themselves.

"I'm sorry...Dad, Mom..."

She will be back.

The next day, when the team was ready to leave, Worm met Sonia again.

She took a knife from nowhere, changed her clothes, and stood in front of Worm with her schoolbag on her back.

"Sonia? Didn't you go home?"

He received a report from the vigilante late at night last night, saying that the bear girl had left. He thought that the other party had figured it out and went home.

"I still want to follow you, Worm. I will obey orders and won't hold you back."

"What about your studies? And your parents? Are you ready to give up on them?"

Worm didn't want her to abandon her current life, but the bear girl was unexpectedly determined.

When she sees death, she may shrink back.

Worm has seen too many people whose psychological defenses were broken by death, most of whom he killed with his own hands.

"I left the letter at home... I'll prove to my parents that I can get in without having to listen to them."

"...Okay, Sonia. But if you leave with us, you will have to rely on yourself if you want to come back."

Obviously, Worm's final advice and threats had no effect.This young Ursus is surprisingly stubborn.

In the end, Sonia got her wish and joined the team.

only……

"Sister, why are you following Brother Worm?"

Why would she be in a car with a child?

It’s not like Worm has never seen her fighting before?Or is it that she can't even beat a child?

"Me? I want to be a great ranger!"

The child's Ussian language was a bit unclear, but Sonia could still clearly understand the words follow and wom.

"Oh...are we rangers?"

The little kid asked the older friend next to him.

"His Royal Highness Worm says yes."

What they admire most now is His Majesty the Little Demon King. They want to carry the medals they have received with them every day to show that they are Sakaz warriors who were awarded medals by the Demon King himself.

"Yes, then we must also become the greatest rangers!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his companion slapped him on the back of the head.

"You idiot? The greatest ranger is of course His Highness Worm!"

"Ah, yes, then let's become the second greatest ranger!"

When one of the children laughed, the others started laughing too.

Only Sonia couldn't understand the Letanian-flavored Sakaz language and looked at them with confusion.

The convoy stopped ten miles away from the city exit.

The shipment they are shipping is here.

"..."

Worm watched as Hedley went to talk to the person who handed over the goods, looked at the goods, and then looked at the vehicle parked among the goods.

"Huh? You really didn't give those things as gifts this time?"

Dabuliu also discovered the car and the people in it.

"It seems that the noble man Hedley found is going to be unlucky. No wonder he has to spend a lot of money to get Sakaz to deliver the goods."

This gift is not only goods, but also the lives of his family.

"Tsk, I feel uncomfortable when I think about getting along with those stupid nobles who have an inexplicable sense of superiority."

"only one person."

Listening to the little devil's nagging complaints in his ears, Worm used the blood demon's spell to sense the number of people in the car.There was only one Ursusian...about the same age as Sonia.

"Since they are all Usas, let's give her to Sonia."

The bear girl protested loudly when she was placed in the carriage of the Sakaz children. In this case, find some work for her.If Sonia gets to know this noble girl, it will be easier for her to go home in the future.

If it were before, Worm wouldn't have thought so much.

Sonia wants to follow?Then let her follow.

Sonia wants to work?Then give her a job.

Sonia wants to go home?Then let her go home by herself.

But these two days, Theresa was teaching him how to get along with his friends, so Worm listened to his mother's words and thought more about his friends.
