The days in Salem were calm and leisurely.

For a Puritan town near Boston, the main goal of the residents was to survive.

And because there is religion as a bond, many people follow the same rules and laws, so life is very peaceful.

There is a two-story small western-style building in Salem. It is very different from the buildings of other nearby residents. It can be said to be the most luxurious residence in this town.

The person living here is none other than the pastor of Salem Church, Lord Roy Crowley.

This pastor is not only gentle to others, but also has a deep understanding of biblical theory. He is also willing to help others and always answers difficult questions for others.

At the same time, this pastor is also cheerful and generous, and he will always generously help the townspeople who are in trouble. Therefore, he has great prestige in Salem and is trusted by many townspeople.

Additionally, his adopted daughter Abigail Williams is also loved in Salem.

"Uncle, I'm back!"

In the evening after sunset, a clear and childish voice, and a cheerful and lively girl's voice came from outside the foreign-style building.

As the door of the foreign-style building was opened, a girl with beautiful blond hair and fair skin walked in.

She was wearing a black dress and a ladylike round hat on her head. On her neckline and hair were tied yellow and black bows that looked like stars in the sky. The hem of her dress had a It was not just a skirt, but a pair of bloomers that tightly tied her slender white legs. The girl looked about eleven or twelve years old. She was as petite as a cute doll.

Abigail Williams, After her parents died, she was adopted by the town's pastor Roy as her adopted daughter and goddaughter.

However, Abigail did not call Roy her father or godfather, but called him uncle, which was Roy's strong request..

Compared to the skinny, malnourished little girl more than a year ago, Abigail now looks much plumper after receiving nutritional supplements.

But no matter how plump she is, she is just a A delicate little girl, as delicate and fragile as porcelain

"Miss, you are back!"

The person who opened the door for Abigail was a little black girl. In this North American continent where black slaves still exist and black status is underground, most black people are doing slave work, but as a black person like Tituba, If you can work as a maid, you are already well paid.

"Tituba, where is uncle?"

Abigail asked after walking into the house.

"The master is on the second floor, miss."

The black girl in maid uniform quickly replied respectfully,"……Miss, you came back a little late today. The master may be unhappy."

"Ah, I know, Tituba, I will go and apologize to uncle! What shall we eat tonight?"

Abigail heard that Roy might be angry. She shrank her neck in fear.

"Today I am making the pancakes that you like, Miss Abby. As you said, there is not much wheat available in Salem. In order to let you eat your favorite pancakes, the master specially asked the businessman to come from a distant place. Wheat brought from the place."

Tituba said with a smile.

She was very grateful to her master. Not only was she able to have a job as a maid, she was supposed to be a slave, but the master never abused her and even gave her more than the salary in the town. The residents have good food.

Compared to her compatriots who work on plantations and work as slaves everywhere, with no guarantee of life, her life is almost like being in paradise.

Therefore, she will do her best To take care of the master and satisfy the master, he will do his best to take care of Miss Abi.

"Baked pancakes……"

After hearing Tituba's words, Abigail swallowed unconsciously, showing a cute and greedy expression.

"Well, there is also applesauce made by the people in town. Miss Abby. Tituba smiled again.

"Great, then Tituba, please go cook. I'm going up to see my uncle."

"Okay, madam!"

After Tituba paused for a moment, she continued: 歺... Although it may not be good for me to say this, the eldest lady, pleaseBe more well-behaved, the master will definitely like well-behaved children more"

"I, I am already very well-behaved... I have been learning how to be a likeable lady.

Abi whispered softly.

……

After Tituba went to cook, Abigail ran up the stairs and met Roy who was reading in the study on the second floor.

She immediately restrained her previous arrogance like a naughty child, became more submissive, stood in front of Roy, and shouted with a delicate voice like longing:"…㐧Uncle, I'm back!"

"You're back, Abby...you came home ten minutes later than I asked you to."

Roy put down the book in his hand and looked at Abigail with a smile, who was lowering her head and putting her hands in front of her.

"Yes, I'm sorry, uncle! I just came back to spend the night because I saw a whale spouting water on the top of the mountain today and was fascinated by it for a while."

"……Ah, you don’t know, the spouting of whales at sunset is so beautiful. It would be great if I could go see it with you."

Abigail first raised her head with joy and spoke excitedly and danced about the beautiful scenery she saw today. Then she quickly lowered her head and her voice became softer again.

That surprised look was very childish

"Abi, you have to remember that as a believer in the Lord, you are not allowed to swear, because that is blasphemy to the Lord, but you must keep your promises, and you must complete what you promise to others. Roy educated Abigail carefully and said.

"ケI know, uncle! I was wrong this time, and I will definitely not do it again next time"

"……If we confess our sins, God is faithful and righteous and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness!"

Abigail lowered her head and closed her eyes, praying devoutly, and recited the content of Chapter 1, Section 9 of 1 John.

Her tone was pious, her faith was pure, and she was an absolutely qualified Christian believer.

"Well, if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive your trespasses. Therefore, I forgive you, Abi.……"

Roy stood up, walked up to Abigail who was praying devoutly, and gently rubbed her beautiful golden hair.

Abigail opened her praying eyes. She lowered her head in embarrassment, enjoying Roy's caress like a cat.

Then, when she saw Roy, she walked back to her seat and sat down, picked up the book next to her and started reading.

That book has a name written on the cover (by Mano), called"The Dunwich Horror", and it is the book that my uncle has been reading recently.

Abi didn't know what the content of that book was, but she wasn't very curious.

At this moment, she seemed to have thought of something, and said to Roy excitedly:"……Uncle, there is a new family in Salem called Whateley."

"……I met one of their children who is about the same age as me, her name is Lavinia Whately, and I think we can become good friends!"

"Oh, that’s right, this teddy bear you gave me, uncle. After chatting with Lavinia today, I decided to name this little bear Yug!"

Abigail excitedly raised the little bear doll hanging around her waist and said to Roy.

"Well, as long as you are happy Abhi.

Roy raised his head and smiled at the girl's happy face.

Then he lowered his head again and looked at a certain page of the book in his hand. There were several faint names on it... Lavinia Vitelli and Yog-Sothoth! _,
