Mystery: The Last Shepherd

Chapter 11 May your Lord bless you

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

Aiming at the slumbering Hainas, Luo Yao pulled the trigger. Six silver demon-hunting bullets, carrying the power of the Night Goddess's prayers, slammed into Hainas's corrupted body.

"Ahhh!"

Hainas was jolted awake from his sleep, letting out a heart-wrenching scream. The skin struck by the demon hunter's bullet instantly turned black, never to recover, like rotten wood struck by lightning, before the blackness rapidly spread and disintegrated. He clutched his abdomen and collapsed to his knees, curled up in a ball, and remained motionless.

Kill it.
Klein thought nervously.

"Ding ding."

Luo Yao skillfully ejected the spent cartridges and reloaded, then moved closer to Hainas, pointing the gun directly at his head. She wasn't going to take any chances; instead, she planned to take advantage of Hainas's weakened state and fire another volley of demon-hunting bullets!
But just as Luo Yao pressed the muzzle of his gun against Hainas's head, he suddenly raised his head.

"Thank God."

Hainas said with a maniacal smile.

What was hidden beneath his black robe stirred restlessly. Only when he got close enough could Luo Yao see clearly what it was—two human faces! One large, one small, embedded in Hainas's chest and abdomen. Through the black robe, the two faces twisted and twitched, their frozen pain almost tangible!

As Hainas uttered a prayer, both faces simultaneously opened their mouths:
Praise be to you, my Lord.

Your will will be done on earth.
It resonates within our very flesh and blood.

Those were indescribable words of depravity, two mouths opening and closing incessantly, forming a duet, and blasphemous and insane prayers poured out!

boom!
Klein felt a buzzing in his head, as if a bomb had exploded inside, and his consciousness went blank for a moment. When he regained consciousness, he was lying on the ground, blood streaming down his chin from his nose, his mind filled with dizziness and pain.

what the hell
The shrill, blasphemous words still echoed. Klein barely managed to lift her head and saw Luo Yao lying on the ground, bleeding from his mouth and nose, unconscious. She was closer to Hainas, and the impact was greater. In the hall riddled with bullet holes and blood, only Hainas remained standing. His two faces beneath his black robes continued chanting, accompanied by corrupt language; the wounds inflicted by the demon hunter's bullets had healed.

His face was filled with fervor and piety as he opened his arms.

"This is the supreme power of the Lord! I received His revelation in my dream!"

I rely on
Klein cursed silently. He tried to struggle to his feet, but his body was completely out of his control. The depraved voice constantly assaulted his brain, leaving him weak and powerless. If he hadn't already adapted to the murmurs above the gray fog, he probably would have fallen into a complete coma like Luo Yao.

Two faces beneath the black robes prayed, and between words, they uttered desperate pleas and cries.

"Darling, please stop."

"Daddy, it hurts so much."

Klein noticed that Haynes, who had been ecstatic, suddenly froze upon hearing the cries of the woman and child, a look of pain flashing across his face. But quickly, those emotions dissipated, and he laughed again.

"Haha, this is a gift from God! Now our family can be together forever!"

Hainas, tears streaming down his face, his expression a mixture of joy and despair, had completely lost his last shred of humanity, utterly immersed in his faith in the evil god. He gently stroked the two human faces on his abdomen, ignoring their screams and cries, only offering the purest, most frenzied prayers to his "master," forcing the two faces to continuously utter corrupt words amidst extreme torment.

This madman, did he sacrifice his wife and children?!
Klein felt a chill run down his spine, a surge of disgust and anger welling up inside him. He had never seen this side of Hainas before. Indeed, once someone became a follower of an evil god, no matter how normal their behavior, they had essentially become a monster in human skin!

Hainas muttered to himself for a while, then suddenly began to move again. He looked at Luo Yao lying on the ground, his eyes flashing with hunger and greed, and opened his mouth, which split open to his ears, his white teeth covered with bloody mucus.

"Dad, I'm so hungry."

"Darling, let's eat her."

The two faces on his abdomen also spoke at the same time, encouraging him to continue.

Oh no! Klein suddenly realized, this guy is going to eat Ms. Luo Yao! He has to stop him!

But Hainas's blasphemous language continued, and he couldn't stand up at all. Seeing that the other man had already crouched down and opened his mouth towards Luo Yao, he gritted his teeth and whispered:

"Fu Sheng."

"boom!"

Just then, a crisp sound drowned out Klein's mutterings. He saw an exquisite teapot fly across the hall, hitting Haynes squarely on the head and shattering into pieces.

"Go to hell!"

A roar came from behind, and a figure quickly crossed the distance, rushed in front of Hainas, and swung the hard cane in both hands in a full arc, hitting him hard in the face.

"Paji!"

Like smashing a watermelon or crushing an insect—that was the satisfying sound. Haynes fell backward, a deep indentation from his cane etched into his face. Klein stared in astonishment at the figure; it was none other than the person they were supposed to protect—Luzer Rondohr!

"Scream! Scream your mother!"

Luze's eyes were bloodshot, blood streaming from his nose and ears. He cursed Hainas through gritted teeth, repeatedly smashing his cane against Hainas's head. The splattered blood landed on his face and hands, hissing and burning, sending up smoke, but it did nothing to stop him from killing him.

"Ah, praise the Lord!"

As Hainas was being whipped, he spoke in a muffled voice. Immediately afterward, the two faces on his abdomen opened their mouths simultaneously.

"careful!"

Klein hurriedly warned him, but it was too late. The piercing howl, accompanied by corrupt language, came out from those two mouths again and crashed towards Luze. Klein, who was behind, only received the aftershock and felt as if his head had been hit hard again. He was dizzy and in pain.

Through his blurry vision, Klein saw Luzer stop moving and remain motionless.

"hehe."

Hainas looked at Luze, who seemed to be in a daze, and gave a chilling laugh, "You have the Lord's...oh...oh...oh..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Ze raised his foot and kicked him hard between the legs!
"Crack!"

There was a sound like cracking, and Klein, who was watching from the sidelines, also felt a chill below.

"What's with all the shouting? Didn't your God protect your manhood?"

Lu Ze sneered and kicked again. Blood was gushing from his nose and ears, but he was fully conscious. Although his face was contorted with rage, his mind was racing, trying to figure out how to deal with the monster.

Why did Lu Ze appear at this time?
Because from the very beginning, he never intended to entrust his life entirely to someone else.

After hiding his sister Cecilia, Luze slipped out of the lounge and hid behind a partition to observe the scene. The fighting had been so intense that neither of the two Night Watchers present had noticed him. Haynes seemed to have noticed, but he was rendered immobile by the attack.

So initially, Lu Ze was relatively safe as an observer.

Until Haynes awakened the two faces beneath the black robe, using them to amplify himself and corrupt others. The filthy, corrupt words initially shocked Luze greatly, but just as his mind was about to collapse, the illusory ocean he had felt when he drank the potion reappeared, as if non-existent tides were gently supporting his mind, resisting the chanting.

However, this power seems to be limited. While resisting the erosion, the coolness is gradually disappearing. If Hainas is not dealt with, he will eventually fall into madness.

　Is anyone watching? Please give me some feedback, thank you.
