Chapter 4 Part 1 : I Raised The Villains Preciously

Translated by Tam

Next to a dark alley where there’s no store sign, Jason is hanging around in front of the building with a suspicious atmosphere.

He was one of the juniors in the temple.

Jason was usually responsible for some troublesome work.

‘What kind of errand are you on today?’, wondered Hannah.

In fact, it was a temple with so many shabby sides that it was not surprising to see what he was doing.

Hannah patted on the reliable shopping basket with her hands to turn off the nerves from Jason.

‘This should be a luxurious table tonight, right?’

Though her wallet was empty, her heart was generous.

‘How about a prepaid salary?

Hannah’s face darkened because she was worried about next month.

“If you sell it as an experiment, the price will double. But the standard is strict. It’s a little difficult even if they’re too young.”

“How much can you get?”

“I can take 500 gold per two.”

“Can you give me a little more for three?”

As Hannah passed the street, she heard something strange about their conversation.

‘Experiment?’

Hannah glanced at where Jason was.

The person who flipped the black lobster in front of him, ‘Oh, the bad guy.’

Hannah’s pace slowed down and fell right behind a tree along the road.

And then she raised her ear to listen.

“Not right now, but I’ll call you when the audit is over.”

“You shouldn’t have a sick spot. Keep in mind.”

“Don’t worry.”

“Are those nursery children?”

Her heart sank when she heard the word “nursery”.

My hands were so weak that I barely managed to hold on to something and almost fell to the floor.

“No way..”

Suddenly, the High Priest’s words came to her mind.

‘I’m looking for a place to send those kids through Jason…”

‘Crazy. Crazy. Crazy!’

The place where he told me to send the children was not another nursery.

You were making a vicious plan to sell the children as experiments!

Her heart pounded.

No matter how garbage the temple is, this is too much trash! She couldn’t stay like this.

Sweeping her trembling shoulders, Hannah ran straight to the nursery.

——-

“Oh, it’s corn soup!”

“It’s bread?”

“Fish.”

The children were happy to find the menu they wanted at the generously prepared table.

“Well, I wouldn’t have had to eat bread and fish, but teacher is really..”

Masha’s cute dimples were shown on his face.

It was clear that he was in a good mood when he said so.

Masha walked and hugged Hannah’s waist and she rubbed his head.

“I’ll tell you for sure, but teacher doesn’t favor anyone more.”

“Yes, but my bread still tastes the best.”

Jeremy said, eating the bread with apple jam.

Fortunately, the children did not bring up such things as who they love more anymore.

In fact, Hannah was trying to smile at the children, but her insides were burning black.

It was because the words she heard during the day kept coming into her mind.

“Test subjects… Sell them away…”

Her face crumpled by such a terrible thought.

She tried to hide it in front of the children, but she couldn’t stop all the long sighs.

‘I can’t stay like this.’

Wearing pajamas and lying in her bed at the nursery, Hannah could not sleep at all. Daytime work was more nerve-racking than bedtime.

“Huh… I’m only getting paid a little bit… I think I am going to get fired soon, and I don’t have any special abilities…”

No matter how much I thought about how to get the children out of danger, I couldn’t find an answer.

“Should I go out and live with them…”

It was impossible to take responsibility for the three children, who had no money in hand and had just left their nursery school.

Furthermore, she knew and even understood about this world.

The nursery should be maintained as long as possible until the children reach adulthood.

That was the only answer.

She calmly recalled the contents of the novel.

The children’s past stories were short stories, but I remembered them shortly after I read it.

‘The embezzlement of the temple is not a day or two.’

The temple’s funds included donations from believers, subsidies from the country, and additional subsidies for the elderly if there were additional compensation or facilities for the elderly.

Can I really remember all those various money streams without a book?

It was a natural virtue for villains to the ledger to be discovered.

If the children were left alone, they would have been dragged to a bad place.

The human conscience does not allow her to see it alone, aside from blaming and killing it later.

However, it was clear that she and the children would starve to death if she ran away with them.

There’s only one answer.

‘Find, the ledger books. And threaten, the High Priest.’

She wanted to go search the High Priest’s office under the cover of darkness right now, but taking care of three children during the day was exhausting.

“First, let’s go to bed.”

Hannah couldn’t beat her blinking eyelids and drifted off to sleep.
