Chapter 301 Finding A Little Girl
Probably a little girl, crying a lot. I looked around me desperately, feeling heartbroken by hearing the cry of a little child. In my previous life I had a little sister that I loved more than anything in my life. I always felt bad when I saw her crying, sometimes she would run off into the wild woods and get lost, and I had to develop my hearing enough to listen to her weeping and follow that sound until I could find her.
This cry… I feel like I should go look out for whoever is crying. I quickly stood out of the chair and walked outside the restaurant; my parents quickly began to ask me why I was walking away but I just ignored them. The two and everybody else quickly stood up to follow me from behind.
"Sylphy! Where are you going out of the sudden?!" My mother ran behind me but I was rather far away by now. I was running, following the weeping sound of the child crying. It was calling for me, from the depths of my soul. I don\'t know why… I don\'t know why I was the only one.
I suddenly found some back alleys and walked around them, ignoring the trash and the terrible odor. Is this place… where commoners live? No… This is more than that, probably where all poverty gathers. It seems almost desolate, but I can see various eyes creeping at me while the group led by my parents was tailing me from behind. I quickly moved to the left side, walking through the alleys, and then finding something behind a large pile of trash.
When I saw her, it broke my heart into pieces. I couldn\'t help but cover my mouth as I opened it wide in surprise, my eyebrows raising at the same time. Without thinking it twice I rushed towards her, finding a little girl in the streets. Her legs and arms were broken and distorted to the way they shouldn\'t be, her little head was covered in blood, several patches of her head had missing hair, and she had tow horns, both broken, cracked, and left bleeding. She was barely breathing, two of her four eyes were crushed, she was barely hanging on life.
She was a demon.
"Hahh… hahhh…" She was breathing heavily, she wasn\'t even crying, nor weeping. She was dying in silence here, sorrowfully and alone. How could I hear her weep from afar if she wasn\'t even crying physically? It felt as if I was able to hear her emotions from far away… it was something I never thought I could have as an ability.
"Hang in there… Please… Don\'t die!" I cried, as tears began to flow from my eyes, I quickly infused all the Mana I could muster as I called Naturia to aid me, she enhanced my mana and I conjured Verdant Healing Light and Enhanced Regeneration alongside Bone Reinforcement, Anti Bleeding, and Cleaning to clean all the blood over her body. I constantly infused all the magic I could, healing through her tiny body. Her bones were still cracked but her wounds quickly patched up, her face slowly gained a slight bit of her former appearance as it was swollen so much I couldn\'t even see what she was.
Who could had done this to her? Oh my god. Why? Why would anybody do this to a little girl like her? She wasn\'t just bullied; she was brutally hit by many people at the same time. Who could be so horrendously ruthless to brutally crush a little girl to death? The mark of boots were all over her body and her clothes…
Monsters.
Whoever did this are damned monsters!
The memories of my previous life rushed through my mind as I recalled how those bastard bandits did all these horrendous things to our village. They were all monsters, and I trained for years to slaughter them. Now that I have the power, I can kill them. I\'ll kill them. I\'ll kill these monsters that did something so terrible to a little and innocent child.
Kill. I\'ll kill-
"Ngh…"
My mind which was drowning in darkness suddenly was awoken by the sounds of the little girl, she seemed to be waking up. I gently held her in my arms. She was around my age but much smaller and lighter, like a feather. I looked at her eyes which had regenerated thankfully. She seemed so weak and sleepy. Poor child…
"Don\'t worry, everything is going to be alright now." I told her, caressing her hair.
"Big… big shis…" She muttered, in between her sleep, quickly falling unconscious again.
Did she know somebody called big sis? Was this someone that could help her? Perhaps her family? I… I have to calm down. I was… thinking too many things. Somehow my mind was taken by a murderous intent I had lacked for a long while. I began to breathe calmly, as I looked at her and continued to heal her slowly.
"Don\'t worry… It\'s alright now…" I sighed.
"Sylphy!!!" Cried my mother, running to my side as she finally caught up to me with everybody else with her. "Why did you come all the way here- Ah!"
My mother looked at the little girl in my arms, her ability to discern damage was the best. Although I healed the most superficial wounds, she was still in a terrible state. My mother quickly realized she was still almost at the brink of death.
"T-This girl… She was calling for me, mom… I had to come… Please… heal her!"
"This girl… she\'s a demon?"
