Chapter 45: Divide
"Boom!" The whole square was in an uproar! After being shocked, he couldn't help but lament that this Grandi had done so many bad things that even his wife and daughter no longer favored him. It can be said that wives and children are separated and families are destroyed. Kalechi, who was standing next to him, looked at the girl who smiled sweetly in confusion and shock.
He didn't understand why a girl less than ten years old could say such things. The wife standing behind her suddenly turned pale. Just when she was about to slap the girl, she immediately saw Paladin's sinister and ferocious eyes. The movements of his hands stopped immediately. She had no choice but to endure it for herself and her daughter's future life! Grandi, on the other hand, shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly without any surprise. At this moment, he seemed to see through Paladin's trick. All that's left is a dead heart.
The little girl was a little afraid of the shocked and sad expressions of countless people below. She thinks she did nothing wrong. She still remembers that not long ago, this gentle elder brother told her that her father had done bad things and wanted to leave you. The only way to save your father is to let him burn.
Once it is burned, there will be no more bad things, and there is no need to leave you. The little girl firmly remembered her elder brother's words. She believed that she could not live without her father. You must follow your elder brother's instructions and let your father burn it!
With this belief, the eyes of the little girl who thought she was right became firm. But Paladin sighed and stood up and said: "Grandy's wife and daughter have drawn a clear line between Grandy and Grandy. For their future lives, I decided to transfer the factory under Grandy's name and the property of the Prader family who died. Leave the factory to them and ask Captain Kalechi to manage it on your behalf. Let them have food and clothing from now on. Then let them leave this sad place and go to other towns to settle down."
At this moment, the crowd below immediately began to talk: "The priest is a good man, but he didn't want to take these two factories as his own." "The priest is too poor, please take care of him more in the future." "Hey, what? Handing the factory over to this heartless mother and daughter. What a waste."
The wife looked at the gentle Paladin in shock, trying to see some clues from his expression. But unfortunately, she couldn't see it at all. I couldn't help but think: "Is this priest really going to hand over the factory to me?"
She didn't think this Paladin would be so kind. But Kalechi just glanced at Paladin and remained silent. Apparently, Paladin greeted him. Paladin looked at the reaction below, took out two factory contracts from his sleeves, and handed them to his wife: "Thank you for your hard work. Take your daughter down. Don't let her see what's waiting for you."
Finally, the wife burst out crying and immediately ran off the stage holding the contract and her daughter. I don’t want to see Grandi again.
And all this was seen by the three old men hiding in the distance. Neither Nari nor Kira spoke. Only Doroner suddenly sighed: "What a powerful and vicious boy. I started to like him a little bit."
Nari said seriously: "Grandy doesn't want to say anything? This is simply carving up everything he has in front of him. Grandy's wife and daughter are in such a miserable state, I don't know if they can survive today." "Here." Kira immediately reminded: "Do you think Grandi can still speak? Either he was given anesthesia, or his tongue was cut out! Humph, I have been living in the Principality of Kasmi for so many years, and I have never seen him before. You have lived such a vicious and unscrupulous boy." Although Qi La's words were wrong, they were not far off.
Paladin looked at this situation with satisfaction, and suddenly pressed down his hands, and the chattering crowd below immediately fell silent. But I heard him suddenly say: "Grandi, you are about to accept the test of the holy fire. Do you confess to your crimes?"
As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately looked at Grandi. But Grandi, who couldn't express his pain, could only stare at Paladin bitterly, as if he wanted to keep his appearance in his heart, and would seek revenge from him even if he became an undead. In response to this look, Paladin nodded indifferently and said: "Since you don't speak, you are acquiescing. Guards! The burning begins!"
Several guards immediately took down the torches from the wall, walked to the pile of dry firewood at the bottom, and threw the torches onto the dry firewood sprinkled with kerosene. Immediately, blazing flames and fire snakes danced around Grandi. In just a moment, tongues of fire climbed up Grandy's body and penetrated his collar and nostrils. Burn everything that can be burned!
"Ahhhhhhh!" Even though he couldn't speak, Grandy still couldn't bear to scream out under the severe pain all over his body. The scream made people's bodies run wild, as if endless resentment and unwillingness were blended into the scream. Some people couldn't bear it and turned away, afraid to look at such tragic scenes anymore.
But Paladin watched with relish, watching Grandy's screams gradually stop, her clothes were burned to ashes, her body turned into coal, revealing her burnt blackened bones. Gradually, even the bones began to become mutilated, and finally turned into bone fragments and disappeared on the torture rack together with the flames. There is no such person as Grandy in the world anymore.
After the cremation was completed, people left one after another. The guards cleaned the rack, sorted out a jar of ashes and gave it to Paladin. Paladin looked at the square that suddenly became quiet, and returned to the church with a hint of a grin.
As soon as he entered the church, he saw Kaleci waiting for a long time with his wife who looked frightened and his daughter who was watching curiously. Paladin smiled and walked over and said to Kalechi: "You didn't bring any guards." "Of course not."
Kalechi replied like this, but Paladin waved his hand and said: "You will run the factory and the contract will be given to you. I only need 30% of the income. The rest is all yours. How about it? I am right Are you okay?" Kalechi was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood that as a priest, it was not easy for him to stand up to business, and Paladin had no choice about this decision. Kalechi naturally nodded with satisfaction and promised: "In this way, as long as there are no accidents, you and I will be allies in both offense and defense."
Paladin smiled incredulously, walked forward and said to the wife with a cold face: "Where's the contract? Give it to me." The wife took out the contract from her sleeve with trembling hands, and reluctantly handed it to Paladin's hand. superior. Paladin smiled and was about to take it away, but felt that his wife was holding on to the contract and unwilling to let go. Paladin suddenly became angry when he saw the woman's appearance. Just slap him! With a bang, the wife overturned the table and fell to the ground with a wailing sound.
The daughter was so frightened that she immediately squatted down to help her mother up. She was very angry and said to Paladin: "Brother, why did you hit your mother! As for my father, you said that as long as my father has a fever, he will not leave us!" "At this moment, the wife with pain and cheeks suddenly woke up. She sat up with shock and hatred on her face, pointed at Paladin and said tremblingly: "You inhuman beast! You even want to deceive a girl! You! Scumbag!"
Paladin snorted with disdain, turned around and handed the contract in his hand to Kalechi. But seeing the unbearable look on Kalechi's face, he suddenly warned: "The benefits of being my friend are obvious. Now that you take the majority, you are also responsible for the death of his husband, so why are you hesitating?"
Kalechi nodded consciously, finally put on a straight face, and left without looking back. As for how the mother and daughter would be treated, it was no longer a question he wanted to consider. He only knows that now he is truly rich, and his family and his son can all live a happy and contented life. that's enough.
PS: I know, today’s two updates are definitely not pleasing to some people. There are definitely some people who will come out and curse. Come on, I'm mentally prepared.
