Kijiro the cursed child

A group of small, malnourished children find themselves being intimidated by two adult men. It seems that these thirty-year-old big men want to take away the little children who are no older than five.

 

They are in a building in a very bad state of collapse and inside there are more than twenty children. This building is an orphanage built by a pious nobleman with the children of orphaned commoners and he sends money for the construction of this building.

 

Very unfortunate, the situation of the children is terrible and right now there is not much food to feed them, for that reason these guys come to see if there is the slightest possibility that one of the children has magic and thus exchange it for money, but if not there is only giving them to the monsters that live in the forest.

 

One of the Men roared in anger - Enough! You must behave well and always listen to what we say, we are the ones who take care of you and we are not bad - He said calmly and watching how the little children trembled and cried they calmed down to see him. He continued speaking - Good! Now I want a line of all of you right now, this is important because a person from the group of monster hunters will come to see if you have the slightest chance of becoming one and serving the kingdom - He said simply and Boredom, but for most of the children they were very happy not knowing what awaits them.

 

The man next to the guy who had calmed down the twenty little children watched with delight as Pedro managed to trick these children and make them obey him.

 

The companion spoke — Pedro, that was great and sometimes I envy the ability you have to deceive these innocent souls — He said in a whisper in Pedro's ear.

 

Pedro heard the congratulations of his colleague Joel and he felt proud that they envy him this ability. He can always deceive and not only children, he also deceives adults to take their money without it being seen as theft, he is brilliant and he knows it. .

 

Pedro puffed out his chest and calmly looked at the children lined up in a row and observed the last child named Kijiro, a normal child like any other, but since he arrived out of nowhere 2 months ago everything went down, no child had returned. to have magic and that's why he ran out of money, plus there wasn't enough food and water before Kijiro arrived, there was even more than enough, but for some reason it seems to disappear or maybe it's a curse.

 

Coming out of his thoughts he saw the strange appearance and even stranger aptitude of this brat, he admitted he really wanted to chase this boy away, because he always gave him a strange and chilling feeling, he still remembers the time he appeared out of nowhere in his room and found him. He looked with those lifeless black eyes to ask him if he had sold the children, a smart boy.

 

Now without paying attention he made a sign to Joel to start the strategy and get rid of the brats and thus have all the money from this orphanage.

 

Joel immediately saw the sign and left the backyard where the children were lined up, he quickly went to the main room to disguise himself as a "Demon Hunter" having done this he went behind the door to hear Pedro's call and take these children to the forest never to be heard from again.

 

Pedro saw from the corner of his eye that Joel is waiting for the call to make his entrance as a supposed demon hunter and take the brats to the forest, a very simple plan that occurred to him and he took advantage of the fact that it is night to do it, after all in This remote area, a village where birds don't shit, is poor and money is the most important thing besides food. I tried to sell them to a slave trader, but I didn't want them because of the low quality and I was only lucky to sell two girls. small ones at a good price of a silver coin something that left him happy and angry with these leftover brats that are useless.

 

Observing the innocent faces of the children in a row who were talking and smiling happily, inflating their small breasts to show that they are strong, he admits that the first time he felt sorry, but now he only sees it as something natural and feels no remorse for murdering these children, what They see him as a father figure.

 

Pedro spoke - I like what you do, keep laughing and be happy so that the big man comes and sees that there are happy little children who will be great hunters - He said smiling with feigned sincerity.

 

The little children looked at the figure they saw as a father and began to smile happily out loud, enjoying the talk and commenting that they wanted to be great hunters and hunt dragons too, there was one who said he wanted to hunt a giant cow to give it plenty of food. to everyone who doesn't have one.

 

Pedro was unfazed by anything and just stood frozen watching the happy atmosphere with the laughter of the little children who were laughing happily, then he felt a strong gaze looking directly into his soul.

 

Pedro looked up to look for that strong look that gave him chills and saw with amazement that in the corner and end of the row is Kijiro the cursed child, he looks at him with repulsion and hatred, it is as if he could see his soul.

 

Kijiro felt Pedro looking back at him and he did not get intimidated or under his gaze he continued to look at him and showed him the hatred he felt, he knew very well what was about to happen to these children, they would be killed outside the forest.

 

He is not a five-year-old child, he is actually a reincarnated person, he lived in Mexico and was reading a novel where the protagonists were happy and managed to kill the villain and defeat the monster queen, in order to receive the recognition of the world, but the villain In reality, she was the one who had managed to find the weakness of that creature and was unjustly blamed and therefore imprisoned where she would be abused by men to death.

 

Two months ago he came to this world and suspected that he was reincarnated in the world of the novel he was reading, there was magic, evil creatures and kingdoms respectively, so the possibility of being here is very high.

 

But, he never imagined that he would become an orphan boy of five or six years old, he was in a poorly built orphanage in some poor village and twenty little children very malnourished, but always happy, something that caused sadness was the fact that he saw with his own eyes as Pedro took two little girls and the curiosity was great so he followed them and what he saw was terrifying to tell the truth, he observed Pedro kneeling and begging for the fat man who was traveling in a carriage pulled by two two-seater wolves. heads would give a better price for the two girls who were crying.

 

Kijiro watched as the fat man stretched out his hand and both girls were brutally swallowed by the two two-headed wolves. The girls screamed in pain and fear, urinated with terror at dying in a terrible way.

 

Kijiro watched with tears in his eyes as the fat guy threw a silver coin at Pedro and said in an arrogant manner - Muggle, these two pieces of nonsense helped my pets be able to continue with this trip and for that I reward you generously. "Don't bother me, rubbish, these things had very little mana," he said with reluctance in his voice.

 

Then he left with one of the carriage tires, crushing Pedro's foot, causing him to cry out in pain as he felt his aching bones.

 

Kijiro continued watching as Pedro cursed the urine and blood stains where there were once two little girls who followed him and asked him to tell stories. He saw how he took the silver coin and went to the distant town where there was better prosperity.

 

Kijrio, a nineteen-year-old reincarnated man, felt deep hatred and remorse when he saw how these two girls died and the very weak one died without doing anything. From that time on he swore to protect the remaining children.

 

Approaching the remains of the little children, he created a pose and buried them with sand, he prayed and turned around to go to the orphanage, he had to plan how to gain strength to help those who remain.

 

After arriving at the orphanage he observed the hungry children who were sitting on the ground and Joel was eating the best chicken in the village and the bones with little meat were carelessly thrown to the children hitting them on the head so that they would eat.

 

Kijiro felt that feeling of hatred again growing more and more in him, he had barely arrived in this world a few days and he had seen things that had made him blacken and want to kill, but thinking better he went to where the knives are and took the longest Now the shipowner saw that the day was just beginning and, seeing again the tearful and tender face of the children, he went out with a strong will to go to the forest where he suspected that there were many monsters, but animals to hunt and eat.
