Adult fairy tale: starting from Cinderella’s feet

On the way to the church, Esther saw many people rushing on the road with anxious faces, while those who came back from the church all had relaxed faces, probably because they prayed for the priest’s candles and felt relieved.

In fact, priests and exorcists can be said to have some overlapping professions.

But in this country that was once almost magic-free, the church remained strong when exorcists were forgotten.

Although priests are not tall and noble, they always have no problem eating enough, and when encountering special events such as werewolves, clever priests can always find a way to make a fortune.

Such a huge difference in treatment is not because priests really have strong strength. After all, there are not many superpowers in this country, but there are more than tens of thousands of churches of all sizes across the country.

The main thing is that priests can fool you. They can always convey some words about the Lord being supreme, changing destiny, and sublimation after death.

Let people feel that as long as they do these, they will become lucky, or get better treatment after death.

Although it is not ruled out that there are really mysterious things such as destiny and undead in higher-level dimensions, Esther believes that they will definitely not exist in this dilapidated town.

So Esther decided to meet the priest who was blessing and sending candles.

When Esther arrived at the church, there was already a long line of people waiting.

“”Hey, Master Esther!”

As Esther was still watching, he heard a familiar rough voice.

When the bearded hunter Hank saw Esther, he immediately left the team and came to Esther.

“It’s you, Hank! Are you in line for the candle blessing too?”

“Hey! Now that we have met Lord Esther, what else do we need blessing candles for! Let’s go, brothers!” Hank waved his hand and more than a dozen hunters swarmed out of the team:”Lord Esther, I haven’t thanked you properly for what happened last time. Let’s go, I’ll treat you today, with wine and meat!”

Seeing Hank’s enthusiasm and the fact that they, the hunters, often went out to the forest, Esther changed his plan temporarily. He first learned some things about werewolves from Hank and followed Hank to a nearby tavern. As soon as

Hank’s hunter team left, the blessing team immediately shrank by more than half, and the pastor in the church, whose smiling face just now dimmed in an instant.

“You go to the back hall and wait for a while!” The pastor forced a smile and said something to the person praying in front of him, then walked towards the believers at the door.

“this……”The pastor pointed at Ayser and his group in the distance and said,”What’s going on? Why are so many people leaving?”

“To the pastor, it seemed that a remarkable person had come, and the bearded man seemed to say: Since we have him, why do we need blessing candles?”

“What! Who is this? Stealing my job!” The pastor’s face instantly showed dissatisfaction:”You, go follow them and see what they are going to do. I’ll take the money from the people who came here first!”

“”Okay!”

The pastor looked at the back of Esther in the hunter team, shook his sleeves angrily, and walked to the back hall.

After arriving at the tavern, Hank ordered wine and meat. The anxiety he had when queuing in the church before was completely gone.

“Hank, why are you lighting candles here? And I want to ask what the werewolves in this forest are like?”

Hank took a sip of wine from the big wine glass, moistened his throat and said slowly

“In fact, the wolves in this forest have been acting strange for a long time.

Three years ago, a few of us found that the wolves were becoming more and more agile and cunning!”

“Three years ago?” Esther was shocked:”Three years, and this town doesn’t take it seriously?”

“Oh, three years ago it just ran faster, and its size grew slowly!

The giant wolf that looks like a human was only discovered in the last month or so!

As for whether the town takes it seriously or not, hahaha!”

Hank smiled and took a sip of wine:”We couldn’t see any officials when we went to find them. I think I heard that they were all enjoying candles!”

“Oh, I was addicted to candles! So what’s going on now?”

“recent……”Hank’s expression became serious again.”The werewolf you helped us get rid of last time was the one we tracked for more than half a month!

We thought we could have peace for a while after getting rid of it, but we didn’t expect that two days later, werewolves showed up again, and there was more than one!

Two days ago, we came to the town together to sell wild animals. When we were ready to return to the village after selling them, we heard that more than a dozen people were bitten to death by werewolves in the forest!

Although we have been wandering in the forest all year round, we are still a little scared after seeing the ferocity of the werewolves!

After hearing that so many people were bitten to death, we are a little afraid to go into the forest again.!

I heard that a pastor in the church returned safely with the candles he had blessed.

Although we don’t believe in any god, we really have no other choice, so we went to the church to ask for a candle and give it a try!

But now that we have met you, Lord Esther, we can feel relieved!

Sir, we will pay, can you escort us for a while?”

Esther integrated the information provided by Hank: werewolves are in the forest, their whereabouts are uncertain, and from the last fight, they are quite smart. If I attack too hard, they might even hide from me.

Then I can only start with the pastor in the town!
