I Adopted A Villainous Dad

Kais Salvator.

He was the male lead of the novel and Priscilla's savior. While growing up, he had to deal with all kinds of hardships and struggles. This made him reserved about his emotions, and he only cared about himself.

In the novel, he had a terrible personality, but once he met the female lead, he had calmed down.

"Get lost."

Bam!

'Amelia isn't patient!' I unconsciously punched Kais in the back of his head. The glare he gave me was so fierce that I felt I would be killed. So, I hid behind Ludwig.

"…" It looked like Ludwig wanted to say something, but he silently stood as my shield.

"Ha!" Kais's eyes boiled in anger, and he stood up with his sword.

"Hey! Where are you going?"

"Get lost."

"Huh?"

"I'm moving alone." Kais started walking in the direction my dad had disappeared to.

I stayed back and tilted my head. "It's not in that direction…" I didn't know if I needed to correct him, but it was too late to chase after him.

'If I tell him now, he'll be embarrassed.' "Ah, I'm so kind." I was immersed in my kindness as I turned back to Ludwig. He was waiting for my command. "Ludwig, let's go!"

"Saintess, where are we going?"

That was still a secret. I looked at the paladins and then back at Ludwig. I had the best solution. "Ludwig."

"Yes, Saintess."

"Do you believe me?"

"Pardon?"

"Do you believe me?"

"…" Ludwig's eyes trembled.

I looked at him with clear, calm eyes. 'Now, look into my eyes. You'll be healthy and happy!'

Eventually, Ludwig nodded. "Yes, I believe you."

I smiled. "Then let's go in with our belief!"

We didn't have time to lose.

Kais expertly twirled his sword and looked at the blood on the blade. 'This is almost a massacre.' He could tell how strong the man in front of him was by looking at his surroundings.

Kais's dead eyes shone with hope. 'I can save him.' When he had run away alone, he had been hopeless.

"It's okay, Brother. Go." Harel had known this as well at that time. There was no way Kais could return after leaving.

"I'll save you."

But Kais had promised him.

"I'll definitely save you."

Kais had promised to bring someone to save Harel because he couldn't do it with his own power. However, he couldn't keep his promise. Because no one wanted to help him at all.

"We'll help!"

Except for one person.

Kais frowned when the bright face with shining eyes flashed in his mind again. He was at his wit's end, and he had uttered those words because he had nothing to lose.

He could've never anticipated that the very last person he asked would agree.

'What a weird kid.' He didn't like how she was carefree as if she had grown up not knowing suffering. 'She gets on my nerves.' That was the only reason he behaved that way.

He shook his head and escaped his thoughts. Right now, he needed to save his younger brother.

Ludwig sneaked a peek behind him and looked at the small figure. He thought it would be difficult for her, but Amelia was easily following along.

'Cute.' He knew that he shouldn't have these thoughts about such a precious person, but he unconsciously softened as he watched her little feet keep up with him.

'She wasn't like that in the beginning.' He remembered the first time he had met Amelia. The child had been crying alone between two corpses. Everyone else used to treat the saintess in awe, but in Ludwig's eyes, she was just a kid.

After that, she had been sent to the Vatican, and he became unable to see her. However, he prayed that Amelia lived happily.

Even now, when Amelia was smiling brightly, all Ludwig saw was that kid.

'I need to protect the saintess.' Ludwig took a firmer grip of his sword. 'The saintess believed in me and gave me the holy sword.'

Not many paladins could hope for something like that. Ludwig felt overwhelmed that he was recognized. His sense of responsibility made him straighten his back.

The holy sword was so light he could barely feel it but it was still sturdy. He felt that he could cut anything and that was standing in his way.

Ludwig also found out that Amelia didn't talk to anyone unfamiliar. 'She's shy around strangers.' The only two people whom she treated like this were Ludwig and Miltiades!

Ludwig happily looked at the holy sword. 'And I received a present before His Majesty Miltiades.'

Amelia didn't know this, but Ludwig had a huge sense of loyalty.

Ludwig didn't know how she knew about the secret passage, but he and the paladins had gone through the secret passage. They listened to her command.

"Ludwig. This is something only you can do."

"I will definitely do it."

"Okay, I'll trust you!" Amelia beamed.

Ludwig felt that he could do anything to protect that smile. He raised his holy sword and went off alone.

The most important thing to consider in saving Kais' younger brother was time. Thankfully, the situation wasn't bad. 'Daddy's at the front, and Ludwig's in the secret tunnel. I don't think anyone will be in the underground prison.' There wasn't anyone to stop me.

I knew this location's real identity. It was the lab for a crazy magician.

"Saintess, please be careful."

"Okay."

The entrance to the underground prison was small. The dark prison was engulfed in a horrible smell and strange atmosphere. Anyone would go crazy in this place inside a month.

'Ludwig needs to break the seal soon.'

The seal on the underground prison was at a different location to hide the truth. I was impatiently waiting when I heard a familiar voice in my head.

"Wait a bit."

It was Sophia's voice.

I opened my eyes in shock and the scenery in front of me changed. "…!"

The shocked paladins tightly held onto their swords. The scene in front of us was carnage.

"This is!"

"Oh, God Almighty…"

"How could this be!"

Man-made beasts, human-beast mixed beings, and sacrificed humans were all around the prison. The crazy magician was researching 'How to make humans into beasts.'

I screamed at the paladins who couldn't do anything in front of this cruel scene. "Focus! Some people might still be alive here. We have to save everyone."

The paladins got their wits together and yelled, "That's right, we have the saintess on our side!"

"Let's save everyone!" I tilted my head at the paladins' overwhelming auras, but let it go. I showed them the safest way to get rid of the beasts.

"He should be around here." I looked at the people trapped in the prison.

"Oh! God almighty! We've been saved!"

Thankfully, most of the people in the prisons were alive. I pretended to heal them as I looked around. 'I'm pretty sure the male lead's younger brother is here. So where is he?'

Suddenly, a negative thought came to my mind. 'Is he already dead? Was he used as an experiment?!' "That can't be. Calm down."

There was still one area we hadn't checked. I looked at the shaded walls of the prison and found a brick that didn't fit into place. I pressed the brick and there was a huge creaking sound as the area shook.

"…!" There was a huge area at the end of a hallway. I got nervous looking at the area that was even darker than the underground prison.

"Saintess."

I didn't know when he had returned, but Ludwig was standing next to me. I could see Sophia's holy sword shining.

'We have the holy sword. It's going to be fine.' I quickly grabbed Ludwig's sleeve and pulled on it. "Over here, Ludwig! Let's go!"

My heart was opposed to the idea of going into the darker area, but I had no choice.

"…!"

After we went in, we saw a countless number of humans and beasts that couldn't be saved anymore.

"Saintess!" Ludwig hugged me and destroyed the beast that had attacked me.

The beast turned to dust at the touch of the holy sword, and I found the male lead's younger brother who I had been searching for.

"Ludwig! Let's go!" I urgently screamed and Ludwig brandished his sword.

The beast that was trying to eat Kais's younger brother died to the holy sword's light.

Crash!

My worry about failing to recognize the male lead's younger brother was not needed. The brothers' handsome features seemed to be genetic..
