Under the beautiful moonlight of early spring by the cliff a child sang a longing song. "Neko, neko, neko, kuro neko, neko. Where ever you are my kuro neko. Please come back my kuro neko." A single tear form from her left eye and it rolls down till it hit the ground. A lone wind blew past through her. "Memories of you and me playing by the old attic. Neko, neko, neko, kuro neko, neko..." So much pain in her heart was too much for her young age. She is just a four years old child how could her young heart endure the pain she feels. With no one to console her, no one to protect her she had no family to begin with.
"So you're here. Your so high and mighty to make me come here for you." Someone said with a sound of mockery and disgust behind the little girl startling her. "Don't mind her Madam she's just an orphan picked up by Master from the street of a lowly district." Said the servant that attending the Madam. "The Master pick her up for you to use." she said bowing her head.
"Oh my husband is so considerate. He really know that I really love little tiny girls with brown eyes. Oh how rare these eyes." the woman said. It is true that in their kingdom no one had brown eyes. The common color of their people's eyes where green or blue. While Royal's and Nobles have either gold or silver. She thought. 'Those rare eyes should be mine! How come a Royal especially a Queen like me could have something that's so common!'
The child look at the two people behind her. Fear is evident in her eyes, her tiny hands are shaking the same with her legs. "What do you think you are doing we don't have a lot of food to spare to some dirty peasant. We don't accept freeloaders." the servant said walking closer to the child.
When the two people come closer the child keep walking backwards. She just lost something she treasured. She knows that the person behind it is the Madam. She doesn't have strength to avoid their beatings, she's weak and starving. Her clothes is too thin and her bones are small and evident. Clearly you could describe her as malnourished and she's too boney.
You will be shocked to see her, but what is shocking is that despite her looking like a walking skeleton her eyes where burning with life. "Y-you don't g-go n-near m-me." She said even if she's clearly afraid she won't beg. Thinking back then before she was forced to be taken and threw inside a wagon. She still could eat some leftovers from the hubs or brothels have thrown. It's a miracle that she lived until this day.
"Oh look the little rat is retarded what does she thinks. Disgusting creature on your back now!" The Madam said glaring while her maid is preparing her favorite whip. The whip she use to beat those who stand up and retaliate against her, or anything that she doesn't like or if she just felt like beating you with her whip. She is unreasonable woman.
Fearing the whip the girl who is at the end of the cliff continue to walk backwards. Loosing her footing she falls. 'Is this how I die, would I be with you now.' She thought to herself but she's happy, she's not afraid to die. She openly accepts her faith. Even if she is dying the little girl didn't cry. Most beautiful smile on her lips formed for the first time in her life, while falling.
"Madam what do you think she fall by herself." The maid said as if what happened doesn't concern her.
"Hmp. Forget it that doesn't concern me! On your back now! Are you the master and am I your servant? Huh?!"
"M-Master n-no I didn't mean to." The maid said as she turn her back, afraid that if she opposes to her Madam's request she might die by her beatings. She know that she made her Madam unsatisfied by her losing that thing by the cliff. Now her Madam doesn't have anything to do with her whip so she should just let her Madam lashed her back.
These people are heartless they didn't even think that a life has been taken, a child had died. They don't have conscience they are selfish kind of people. What they didn't know is that there's someone that's been watching them this whole time aside from other servants and guards from afar.
A disguised guard that's been assigned to monitor his wife. 'That man really married a wicked woman. They are all the same but that woman has been doing all this for a long time and her husband only tolerated everything. This couple should be punished I don't have time to give them lessons.' Cold and ruthlessness could be seen in his eyes.
'I think his highness was done playing.' Thought the shadow guard meters away from his master. Even this far he could feel his master's deadly aura. He shivers from thinking what would happen next. His highness really love disguising at the same time he is like the God of Death. 'The moment he got bored calamity would follow.' the shadow guard could only sigh heavily.
In just a while neighboring kingdoms heard news that a great kingdom was burned to nothing, not just burned to ashes because there's nothing left not even ashes. The great Emperor of the kingdom of Scato would be this ruthless especially to those that doesn't heed his warnings. Things could be dispose easily while people would have to pay with their life.
The vicious couple, servants and their people are still alive but if they only know now, that dying is better than the extreme torture they are experiencing. Thousands of cuts every now and then was given to them. While their servants and people where given hundreds of cuts from time to time.
They were once King and Queen of kingdom of Mallic and their people where living lavishly by bribing officials. The kingdom of Mallic prosper by threatening their people and neighboring cities. Their income were from selling slaves and prostitution's. It's normal to get money from these sources but what the Emperor doesn't like is that Kingdom of Mallic is boring for him.
Lokileon Luc as the Emperor of Scato the most powerful Empire in the whole land love exciting and interesting thing. Being bored to death in his throne he disguise himself as to anything that is suitable to his mood. He would travel to find something that could entertain him.
That incident that night where the child had fall by the cliff had nothing to do with the Emperor's decision. It so only happened and coincidence that he got bored of what he is doing. No one took notice of what happened to the child's body.
If one could take a good look at the child one could see that her previous boney and malnourished appearance was replaced. Her skin that's so pale was now shining with vigor that reflected the moonlight. And her body vanished to the depth of the ocean.
