Chapter 29 - Vol. 2 - Special Chapter: For A Peaceful Soul

"O Lord God, to whom vengeance belongs— O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth!" - Psalm 94:1 

Vengeance is something I remember as I read the bible once more…My name is Father Clemente Rossi…I am a member of the Order of the Holy Cross…I used to be rank as a knight…capable of exorcizing hundreds of demons and thousands of Sombras by myself…I had a powerful companion that always fought alongside me…I was known as the Crimson Exorcists throughout the world…

15 years ago…I was involved in a deadly battle against a powerful being…a being that people may refer to as a Demon King…that battle was so catastrophic…I saw my comrades die before my eyes…

We managed to defeat that Demon King…however…the battle brought…horrible aftermath…for starters…I lost half of my mana…my body is completely damaged…I can barely stand nowadays that I sometimes need to use a cane… and those nightmares…I often dream of the Demon King itself telling me that he will get his vengeance one day…

The days of the Crimson Exorcists are now over…But those days are in the past now…today…I serve as the Father in charge of the Mission of San Juan…a small and humble church located at the outskirts of Rio Grande City…I take care of the community by helping those in needs and I decided to adopt young orphan girls who are set to be trained to become members of the Order of the Holy Maiden…

Sister Carolina has helped me raise and educate them…Melissa, Fabiola, Mariana and Abril are my pride and joy…however…due to my weakness…we lost Melissa on that fateful night…

That is one of my greatest regrets…and from that day on…I haven't slept well…in fact…it's rare for me to sleep…that's why…I decided to let Fabiola go…

"For A Peaceful Soul...one must live life with no regrets" A quote that my mentor used to tell me…and that's why…the moment I saw her running towards the battlefield…I used all of my strength to stop me from stopping her…Fabiola needed to see for herself…

Now I am not in favor of vengeance…in fact I am against it because I myself have looked for vengeance and actually obtained it…but after that…it leaves you with emptiness…but we are human beings after all…and I leave her in the hands of the Lord to decide to judge her as she seeks vengeance…I know that my daughter will fine the answer she seeks…

As for me…I decided to continue reading the bible…there is absolutely nothing I can do…but to pray for their success…and for Fabiola to encounter her fate…

For A Peaceful Soul…she must see it through to the end…

For A Peaceful Soul…she will face the Chupacabras and decide for herself…whether vengeance was worth it or not…

Oh I pray to the Lord…I pray for her…I pray for me…I pray for Melissa…I pray for those in the Mission…

I pray for a Peaceful Soul….

The End…
