Chapter 57: Conclusion

What transpired next could only be called brutal, as the rude soldier received a one-sided beating stronger than before. At the end of it, he left with a bloody face, a multitude of wounds on his body, and his joints hurt. However, she deliberately left the body without any broken bones.

Lying on the ground, the rude soldier experienced a sense of devastation. He wanted to cry as his body hurt like hell, his face a mess, feeling like thousands of ants were biting into his face. Despite this, he endured the beating without shedding a tear, refusing to give her the satisfaction of seeing him cry like a little girl.

But one thought subconsciously entered his mind that he wouldn't try to hurt a child ever again if it was a beggar without him realizing it, as he would later find out in the aftermath of a traumatic incident every time he sees a child.

However, it was difficult for him not to cry, especially considering his current pain and the memory of the beating he received from the leader he had always underestimated. Despite the urge to cry, he stubbornly held back his tears.

May, upon seeing him lying on the ground with a bloody face and multiple bruises on his body, felt satisfied with her work. However, she found it surprising that he didn't even cry despite his condition, as she knew someone with a weak will wouldn't be able to endure what the rude soldier had gone through.

She doesn't care if he cried or not, as she is relieved knowing she gave him the punishment he deserved; he would at least think twice before hurting children again as she walked in front of him in a leisurely manner and looked down from above on his bloody and slow face.

The rude soldier can barely see the leader in front of him with his swollen and bloody eyes; he can guess she is looking down on him from above, and even without a direct view of her face, he could discern her expression with ease in his mind.

Still, he doesn't know why she is here or if she is looking down on her.

Normally, her usual look wouldn't bother him, but now he's currently experiencing this after receiving the beat down of his life from a person he didn't acknowledge and being looked down upon in this condition.

Tears started to come from his barely seeable eyes, but he held it on with the last bit of his resistance and hatred toward her.

But then suddenly he heard the same cold and emotionless voice, like usual, saying a single word that made him cry like a little girl withering in pain that he tried to endure with his limit, yet now it all ends as he let go and cries while squirming on the ground.

"Pathetic"

Seeing him in that state, May felt a deep sense of satisfaction. This punishment was exactly what she had intended to deliver, leaving her thoroughly pleased.

All the soldiers seeing everything happening from their eyes felt a chill in their spines, knowing how much of a monster their leader was in both fighting and cruelty as she left the rude like this on the ground, not without ordering anyone to attend his wound for more than an hour to make him suffer.

Soldier Mark, who had earlier desired to challenge her instead of considering her safety, now felt foolish witnessing the events unfold.

Had he been aware of this beforehand, he would have thought of saying those cocky words of trying to fight in her stead as a sign of relief escaped his mouth.

Feeling fortunate that he had refrained from telling her, as he would have been her next opponent if he had spoken earlier, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead at the thought of the potential disaster he narrowly avoided.

However, he knows the leader wouldn't beat him like the squirming body of the psychopath on the ground.

Still seeing his condition, he knew his fate wouldn't be good, so he thanked his luck once again in his heart.

Although he refrained from commenting on the leader's punishment, it filled him with a sense of satisfaction. He found solace in the belief that this psychopath would reconsider twice before harming children and relishing in torture.

His expression, while inflicting pain on the little beggars and witnessing their suffering, revealed his ugly nature, knowing that anything beyond this would seriously affect the rude soldier's well-being.

May later that day ordered Ava and Isla to stay there inside their camp, right next to her camp building, while they were still in shock from what had happened until now.

She ordered some soldiers to provide both of them with a bath while telling them to be especially careful about the wound, and currently, the rude soldier is being treated in some other camp.

After the bath, they were provided with spare military clothes, transforming their appearance. Previously resembling beggars, they now appeared more presentable and well-kept.

Now both of them look like a cute pair of children, but one thing hasn't changed as both of them are very thin and their hair is short like a boy, but they still look adorable together.

With short black hair, light brown eyes, and pale skin, their attractive features did not match those of a leader. Soldiers seeing them could already foresee that as they grew older, the twins would blossom into stunning beauties.

They also noticed the little beggar they had misunderstood for boys earlier was actually a girl, and both of them looked very adorable.

The initial sympathy they felt toward the psychopath who tried to hurt such an adorable child while enjoying himself, just thinking about the asshole's face. They wanted to punch him more.

But they knew he would literally die if they tried to hurt him given his current condition, so all the soldiers felt satisfied by the leader's previous cruel punishment given to him.

After getting ready, May invited both of them alone in her camp as Ava and Isla, both getting this news, were scared, remembering the beating she had given to the rude soldier earlier.

Still, they followed her command as if she were not there for them. Both of them don't know what would have happened to them.

Entering the cabin, they saw the beautiful red-haired lady sitting on the chair with a folded leg and her usual emotionless face. Even they had noticed up until now, not even for a moment, her expression had changed.

Even when the soldier told her about their story, they could tell she was angry by her clenched fists, but her facial expression didn't change even then.

May looked toward the twin beggar sisters; she had seen them the first time after she had given the female soldier to give both of them a bath even though she found both of them very adorable together. However, she could say sure they were not as lovely as her niece and nephew. Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She was going to be strict with them, nevertheless, now that she had seen these adorable twins, her resolve had lessened a little to be hard on these cute little things, so she decided to go easy on them and said in her cold voice without even a bit of anger present in her voice.

"Now both of you tell me what was the actual reason you tried to sneak inside the truck, and if I found out you tried to steal weapons from inside, it wouldn't be good for both of you, and don't try to lie to me, as I have many ways to get the truth from both of you."

Nervously, the twins locked eyes, realizing they had been caught red-handed. And Ava finally spoke up. She decided she had to tell the truth, as it wouldn't be right to hide things from her own savior, so she spoke with a guilty expression on her face while keeping her head down.

The other twin nodded in agreement, hoping their honesty would soften the punishment.

"We didn't mean any harm; we just tried to sneak inside the truck to hope that we could sneak inside the Tier 2 city so that both of us could live a better life there as it's very tough for her to live here "

Ava takes a deep breath and continues in the same voice.

"Our mother has died; we had no food left for us to eat, we didn't want to steal the food, so we decided if we successfully sneaked inside the city, our life would be much better than getting one meal per day with difficulty, which couldn't even fill our stomach if we were able to get work there"

" As they couldn't find any work here and as for the weapon being inside the truck, we don't even know if there is any, and even if we find it, we wouldn't dare touch it, knowing the military would come after us if touched, thus we just wanted to live a better life."

As they continued and told her everything that they didn't have a father, surprisingly they even mentioned her mother's job, as even if they were their lowest, they wouldn't tell anyone about their mother's job, as if someone disrespected her because of them.

They would feel miserable and even angry, but Ava knew the beautiful lady in front was very kind, so they decided to tell her everything about them.

After finishing saying everything while standing still meanwhile remaining their heads low, not looking directly at her because of the shame of telling everything as it's not a pleasant story, and waiting for her to give the punishment for their wrongdoing.

Both of them were currently feeling very scared but didn't show it on her face as they knew they deserved punishment; they didn't want to try to act scared and innocent in front of her to reduce their punishment.
