Peter looked at the undamaged vehicles in front of him and fell into thought.
They were ambushed a little far away from the place where they parked their vehicles so these vehicles were not damaged. Moreover, it was also due to the fact that two salvos of hellfire missiles concentrated on them. Otherwise, the vehicles would be damaged just from random flying shrapnel.
Of course, Peter was not thinking and worrying about the vehicles but about their trip back to Frendo.
A problem had emerged. Although Jenny told them that there would be no more attacks, they didn’t dare to let down their guard and bet. After all, their bodies were still vulnerable without the armors on.
Peter could see everything in the range of nearly one hundred meter but they were afraid of snipers.
Evan on the other hand opened the doors of front cabin and put her two children on the co-pilot seat.
The two little girls looked at the armored uncles curiously and ate the snack they got from Ben silently.
Evan closed the co-pilot door and asked lightly, “Have you already seen them?”
Peter pointed at the storage cabin of box truck and asked calmly, “You meant them? Yes, Lady Evan, I also wanted to ask you about them. Who are they and what are you going to do to them?”
Evan narrowed her eyes slightly and said, “Lady Rosewood, call me that. I know my dad gave me a bad name but my surname is obviously feminine. Why don’t you use it?”
Peter felt troubled as he watched the woman walking towards the back of the truck but still he followed. There were four women in the storage cabin and he wanted to know what’s going on.
When Lady Rosewood opened the doors, the four pitiful women appeared in their sight.
Their hands, feet, arms and legs were tied tightly with ropes and their mouths were also taped so they could not make a sound. But their eyes were not covered with anything.
When Peter saw them, they were moving like shrimps while trying to make sounds and while crying.
Two of them got good figures and looks while the other two looked normal and slightly obese.
Peter looked away from them and he asked Lady Rosewood while looking at her eyes.
Of course, he was still wearing his fully enclosed helmet and she only saw her reflected image on the dark blue glass. Still, she could still feel his stares as she was a mage with keen spiritual sense.
“Don’t look at me like that Mr. Peter. Operate your secret technique and look at their souls. If you still need my explanation after that, I can pull out their memories for you.”
Lady Rosewood shrugged her shoulders, looked at the four women and said coldly.
Peter decided to not ask any other thing. He used his spiritual power and operated the secret pupil technique. His eyes started to glow slightly with pale blue light as he operated the technique carefully.
After seeing their souls, Peter felt sick and even started thinking about how to judge them mercilessly.
“Hey, Ben, brother, what are you going to do if some people with heavy sins appeared in front of you?”
When Ben got asked suddenly by Peter, he was teasing the two little girls after he gave them another bags of flavored potatoes chips. He was confused and walked to Peter to see what was going on.
Ben was surprised after he saw the four women who were tied up tightly in the storage cabin.
“Their souls are full of dark red mists. How many people did they actually harm to achieve this?”
Peter told to Ben who came over and was surprised by the scene in the storage cabin.
The other guys also wondered what was going on as they could hear it all but they held their shields and guns and silently stood around the box truck with two meters distance between each other.
Ben turned his head to look at Peter and asked, “All of them? Seriously?”
Seeing Peter’s silent nod, Ben thought about it for a moment and said, “Since laws have failed to judge them, they’re fated to be judged by us. Of course, we need to see their memories first.”
“I’m troubling you to pull out their memories. We shall see and judge them in the name of Lord.”
Peter didn’t comment on Ben’s decision. He said to Lady Rosewood with his spiritual power and took out the projection stone.
Of course, the latter immediately started as she couldn’t wait to do it.
Soon, a few strands of silver mists were pulled out from a woman under the fearful eyes of the four.
Strands of silver mists flew over and fell onto Lady Rosewood’s opened left hand.
Then, she put them into the projection stone and put a little spiritual power into the stone.
As the silver mists and spiritual power were put in, the projection stone started. Rays of light were emitted by the projection stone and they formed a blue holographic image background in the air above the stone. Soon, a young girl looking at herself in the dressing table mirror appeared.
She was as young and cute as Lilith at that time. Then, she was taken by her parents to a small remote church. And it was also where the bad path of her fate started.
There, she and another nine children of the same age were brought to the stage in the hall.
It was a big hall and there were many people sitting on the wooden benches and praying.
And there was a big stone statue of a horrifying looking man against the wall behind the stage.
With two feathered wings at the back, a thorns ring above the head, thick hair with snake heads at the end, the face with three bleeding eyes, the stitched mouth and the ragged armor with tentacles coming out from the gaps, all of these made it looking horrifying.
In the middle of the stage, three people were tied up on the crosses with special thorny vines.
A man, a woman and a young boy, the three victims got malnourished yellowish skin, typical easterner face and looked like a family who fled from the old eastern empire and migrated to the federation.
They could have had a good life here as everyone could live a good life by working hard unlike the old empire with constant struggles and wars. But now, they were unfortunate and got tied up on a stage.
The ten children were forced by the priests and believers to torture and kill the unlucky family of three.
They called it coming age baptism ceremony and it was extremely bloody.
Wails, curses, sobs, cries and finally unrecognizable growls, nothing stopped the priests and believers from forcing the children to commit the bloody crimes on the three poor victims.
No children could do anything at first. They were scared and afraid. They just stood in places while holding the small surgical knives handed by the adults to them.
Then, priests and even their dear parents held their hands personally and forced them to take action.
Pieces of flesh were cut off. Noses were cut off. Ears were cut off. Eyes were stabbed.
Under the closed guides of priests and their parents, the three poor victims were not killed fast.
They suffered unimaginable pains for nearly ten minutes before they died. Death was a relief for them.
Of course, it didn’t just finish with it. After the ten children were brought down, another batch of captured people were brought up. They didn’t even bother to clean up the scene first.
It was a group of twelve people from different origins. Another group of sad and poor victims.
There were black, white, yellow and bronze skin men and women.
Obviously, this crowd of cultists didn’t have specific targets and they chose random easy targets.
The tightly tied victims saw the bloody scene ahead and knew that their next fate was also going to be the same.
Another similar scene repeated again. They cried, cursed, begged and sobbed. However, they still couldn’t escape the fate of being tortured and killed by the group of cultists.
The little girl couldn’t easily fall asleep during that entire month as she was hearing the cries and seeing the bloody scene happened that day again and again in her mind. Fortunately, the next days were just normal days of going to that church with her parents and praying the prayers or singing the hymns.
Slowly, she got relaxed and forgot about those bloody scenes and sorrowful cries.
Next year that day again, the young girl went to that church with her parents again and experienced the same bloody thing again. But this time, she was one year older and already completed the baptism so she was forced to join the group action of adult cultists. Of course, there were older children too.
They didn’t have coming age baptism at that year because there were no new children up to age.
She experienced the bloody thing again. But this time, she didn’t hesitate much to take action.
Peter looked at the undamaged vehicles in front of him and fell into thought.
