Chapter 508: Chapter 380 Field Research_1 Chapter 508: Chapter 380 Field Research_1 In the end, Duanmu Huai did not agree to join this unreliable so-called “Resistance Organization”. However, he agreed to accept some tasks as an adventurer, just as the girl had said, to observe the situation in the Kingdom of Seth, and then consider what to do next.

In simple terms, he was like a visiting guest.

At the moment, Duanmu Huai was investigating the village.

This village was not large. According to the blonde girl, their Resistance Organization did not have many members internally. Although they were always trying to recruit more people, their efforts had been limited. Moreover… A large number of their main forces had been killed by Duanmu Huai, which led to the Resistance Organization essentially having no one left to utilize.

Duanmu Huai didn’t care about this and felt no guilt. Judging from their idiotic behavior, they were just a group of bandits and thieves without ideals or faith. Killing them was nothing serious. Even if Kendou Kaname and Masou Shizuka had not been taken hostage, Duanmu Huai would have equally shown no mercy to these people.

“Hmm? What’s this place?”

Duanmu Huai walked to a corner of the village and saw a building resembling a monastery. He approached it and observed it carefully. At that moment, Duanmu Huai suddenly felt that someone was watching him. He turned his head and saw a few children peeking out from the shadows, curiously observing him.

“Hi there, kids.”

Duanmu Huai nodded at the children who emerged from the shadows and surrounded him.

“Wow, a warrior uncle!”

“Call me brother.”

“Okay, uncle!”

“…………..”

“Uncle, will you play with us?”

“Play with you?”

Upon hearing the child’s request, Duanmu Huai thought for a moment, then placed Ogis, who had been sitting on his shoulder, on the ground.

“It’s your turn. Play with them.”

“What should I play?”

“Aren’t you good at puppet manipulation? How about performing a puppet show for them? Has Alice taught you?”

“Yes, Miss Alice has taught me. She often performs puppet shows for the children in the village.”

“That’ll work.”

Duanmu Huai patted Ogis’ head while she raised her hands. Soon, with Ogis’ movements, several puppets crawled out of her pocket and appeared before the children. The children were amazed by these moving puppets, and they scrambled together in excitement.

“Wow! Amazing! Amazing!”

“Moving puppets! So interesting!!”

Seeing that most of the children were captivated by the puppets controlled by Ogis, Duanmu Huai turned his gaze to an older girl among them.

“Is it just you guys living here?”

“Nope.”

Upon hearing Duanmu Huai’s question, the girl shook her head.

“Teacher Kimji also takes care of us.”

“Oh, where is she?”

“Teacher Kimji is… Ah…!”

Midway through her sentence, the girl looked behind Duanmu Huai and broke into a smile.

“Teacher Kimji!”

“Hmm?”

Duanmu Huai turned around to see a beautiful black-haired woman with a tanned complexion and an attractive figure walking towards him with a gentle smile. Upon seeing Duanmu Huai, she hesitated for a moment, then turned to the children.

“What’s going on? What’s all the noise about?”

“Teacher Kimji! Look, she’s amazing! These puppets can move on their own!”

Upon seeing the black-haired woman, the children excitedly stood up and spoke to her. Kimji smiled and patted their heads, then turned to look at Duanmu Huai and Ogis.

“You two are… Ah, Mr. Wu Luze has told me about you. What can I do for you?”

By the way, Wu Luze is the leader of that so-called resistance, that blonde girl in the wheelchair.

“I’d like to have a talk with you, do you have time?”

“Oh…”

Hearing Duanmu Huai, Kimji hesitated for a moment and then nodded her head.

“Okay, of course. Please, follow me.”

As she said this, Kimji turned to the older girl who had greeted Duanmu Huai.

“I have to have an important discussion with this person now. You lead the rest of them to play in the yard. Remember, don’t go out of the yard, it can be dangerous.”

“You play with them for a while.”

Duanmu Huai also gave Ogis the same instruction, and she simply nodded her head.

The children then excitedly flocked around Ogis and left, while Kimji turned around and gestured to Duanmu Huai.

“Please follow me, sir.”

“Hmm.”

Duanmu Huai nodded and entered the building under Kimji’s guidance.

“This place used to be a monastery, and now it’s used as an orphanage.”

“I see. So are you the only one taking care of them?”

As Duanmu Huai surveyed the surroundings, he asked, and Kimji nodded.

“Yes, most of these children are… they lost their parents due to the tyranny of sorcerers and had nowhere else to go. Some of them have even more horrifying experiences. We managed to rescue them, but they still had nowhere to go, so we temporarily placed them here. Because of the shortage of staff in the orphanage, I am the only one in charge, but they are all good children…”
