As if choosing something to say for a moment, the silent angel glanced up at the black man.

“The cage is open…”

The voice that had been muttering softly became more and more confident.

“You can fly anywhere.”

And she smiled broadly and held out her hand.

“It’s terrible.”

Vincent muttered unknowingly.

The view inside was gruesome. There were quite a few children who had been experimented on to be a chimera but ended up as a failure and seemed to have side effects.

They screamed horribly, writhing in agony with bodies that were neither alive nor dead. Fortunately, they listened to Aria’s Song of Requiem and closed their eyes comfortably.

‘Please go to a good place…….’

The screams of the children still echoed in her ears. Aria closed her eyes tightly and opened them to pray for the well-being of the dead children.

“There was a laboratory.”

Then, Winter, who had checked the back room and came, said.

“But it seems that all traces of the experiment have been erased. It seems clear that they escaped after taking all the data.”

As expected.

At the time when they almost got caught by Valentine, they couldn’t leave important material in a place where it might be taken.

Veronica has already abandoned this place. That was probably why she entrusted the orphanage to another priest.

‘But then…… Why did she leave these children behind?’

When Aria was puzzled, Winter added.

“There are a total of thirty-six children who survived here. Three or four of them were locked up in the same laboratory.”

Three or four?

“But Laura said she was locked up in an empty room…”

Then the boy, who had not spoken while holding his younger sister in his arms, added a word.

“She must be an A-class child.”

“…A-class?”

“Yes, the higher the rank, the more they were locked up in a solitary cell and thoroughly managed. I heard the researchers talking.”

Class. The expression of blatant displeasure that gave her no choice but to wrinkle her impression.

Like grading meat…….

‘Come to think of it, I heard that children were graded from Count Chateau’s time.’

The children adopted by the Angelo family were unaware of the existence of the experimented children while they were living in the orphanage.

From there, the classes were divided.

Children living just like ordinary orphanage children. And the children who were locked up in the basement for the rest of their lives and experimented with.

‘I should have been involved earlier…….’

Aria could only regret it. Count Chateau had died and the country had taken a massive step, so she thought it would be fine.

‘Because this never happened in the future.’

However, she did not know that these children were leading a more terrifying life than when the Count was alive.
