Chapter 74: 73. A Fiery Priest (3)

"Go from the back and see if everyone's safe." I instructed the priest, "And I'll go check who's here."

"Wait, how-"

I leaned ahead and leapt down hearing his gasp before I landed softly on the ground without at sound. I gestured that I was fine at the priest who stared down at with eyes that seemed as if they were ready to fall off their sockets right into my hands.

I walked towards the back door and saw the dim light spilling from the ajar wooden door. The smell of blood was thick in the air which made me a little worried.

I quietly walked inside and saw the reason of the sudden disturbance. I relaxed a little and walked towards Father Marlowe who was instructing the other priests.

"Mr Ace?" He gasped as he saw me, "Did you go out at this time?"

"Yes, I was out for a stroll but then heard the strange sounds so I came this way. Were those bandits?" I asked gesturing at the four men who were taken by the priests.
