喜多正美 |
Doubting the cues of the homunculus, Masami wearingly follows the creature, yet in haste he looks in different directions, as if being cautious not for himself, but for the creature. They enter the catacombs as a duo and when the boy noticed the homunculus' odd response to those in authority, he started to halt the creature from speaking any further, or speaking at all, so Masami brought the creature to directions where there are less priests, and even lesser people, thinking that it's better to keep the creature away from any sort of human interaction. Being in such a state is a danger to Masami's social camouflage and, if only he was allowed to take the job without the homunculus' assistance, then he would've done so long ago. Now that their directions varied, both Masami and his companion found themselves in a rather quiet hallway. There was a tingling noise from afar, and there was no doubt that it was the sound of fellows either trying to escape or to enter an inaccessible place. With both curiosity and eeriness, the duo approaches the source of the noise, witnessing two priests in a failed guise. The duo were tasked to look for these cultists, but they did not expect that they'd truly find cultists inside a true cathedral. With ease, the cultists were defeated with Abbadon's stead—the homunculus was designed to be stronger than humans. Masami was glad that it wasn't his enemy, otherwise humans might have a hard time getting rid of potential catastrophe. The boy found no interest watching the homunculus lose the human morals it earned along the way, the cultists having pain inflicted upon them. Not that Masami trying to appear unbothered—in fact, he was not bothered the slightest, yet it did not seem like it was a wrong. It was only now that Masami had realized the homunculus' ability to understand the human language. If only Masami knew in the first place, then he would've attempted to speak to it—however, it seems like the homunculus' capabilities still won't make it more human that it wishes to. 353/1500 |
