Walking through the mystical street around the academy, Lilith was showing John around the district of Light. It was crowded with a lot of merchants screaming out materials, foods and etc. Every citizen buying what they want with vigor, children running around laughing and playing games, guards standing everywhere protecting and overseeing the area. To John, it felt like a rpg!
Lilith: So how do think of the District of Light so far, John?
What she saw was a young boy with platinum diamonds popping from his eyes going *shine, shine*
Seeing how John was reacting, she started to laugh. Hearing that heavenly laughter from Lilith, John awoke from his fanboying state and blushed like he had a fever.
John: *cough,cough* It's pretty pleasant, yes pretty cool.
Lilith still laughing she dragged the embarrassed John to the next location until… "Kyaaaaah!!"
The noisy and busy District started to quiet down, everybody looked at the area where they heard the scream. And there it was, a little ragged girl in her in knees wincing in pain. A red palm mark in her left pale cheek, while blood dripping down her nose. Fear in her eyes, her whole body shaking.
" You little rat! I don't want you to step anywhere in this area! Don't you know that you're ruining my mood? And that stench! Ughh you reek! You should just die for even being close around us!"
" Hohoho, that's right, my love! A little skank like her should just rot or be given the death penalty to even be in our presence! Hohohohoho!"
An overgrown obese man wearing fancy clothing and his counterpart wife, that looks beautiful wearing so much jewelry and her dress that shines with silver. Everybody was standing with what's going on, no one arguing at them or even stopping them either. At the moment, John was overheating with anger that steam was sizzling off his head, he started to walk to the direction where those shameless couples were at, until someone grabbed his hand to stop him. It was Lilith.
John: Let me go..
Lilith shook her head and stared at John face
Lilith: You shouldn't do what you were thinking you were about to do.
*Grup,Grup,Grup* Vein started popping out from John's forehead, it was like time stopped for a good second, slowly and steady. John turned his head to Lilith, a demon like face with purple haze eyes were giving a distinct aura that the little angel called Lilith was sweating and a lot of heavy pressure were striking down on her that she couldn't breathe.
John: LET ME GO, NOW.
Lilith started to shake and bit by bit she lets go but, in the end, firmly grasp his hand harder than usual, which surprised but also angered John. Lilith breathed in and out and looked at John with determination.
Lilith: I know how you feel, John. But you need to understand that you're are still not in the ok yet, if you attacked or even get near them, not only are you asking for trouble for yourself but also trouble for the people who is trying to help you. Please John, believe in me and Mr. Lars!!
She got really close to John that all the anger disappeared and replaced with a hint of shades of red, Lilith held both of his hands and screamed out with a lot of vigor and strength that only John could hear.
Lilith: TRUST US!
Trust us? To anybody, it would be just words or only false promises that would backfire on who ever believes on those silly childlike words but to John it was like a loud echo that puncture to the heart. He remembered what Mr. Lars said
"I don't want one of my students to die, that will just make me regret more for not closing that door shut seriously. So please John, trust me."
Trust me
Trust me
Trust... me
Just those little words, made John be in ease, even though he only met Lilith for a few hours, but he felt that he didn't want to disappoint or even fail on believing in Lars. The devilish gentleman that wants to bring him home. John turns around completely to face Lilith and bowed.
John: I'm sorry Lilith, I'll believe in you and Mr. Lars
When Lilith saw and heard John, she finally eased and let out a sigh of relieve. What she feared was gone.
Lilith: Listen John, I know its tough but please give us some time to change everything, if you do we could bring peace and jail all of those corrupts. We just need time.
John nodded his head and asked back
John: But why are we forgiving these trashes?
Lilith: *sigh* Well look at those pins that they have in their chests
John looked and saw a fire colored circular pin that has an "F" in the center.
Lilith: Those are nobles that have connections to "Light Clan".
John was confused so he tilted his head and made Lilith explain more about it.
Lilith: They are a family that uses elements for example water, fire, earth, wind and lightning. Most of these families rule this world and just getting on their bad side could affect your chances not only on going home but also your life. So be careful with people with those types of pins but also... your classmates in the academy.
John: Classmate?
Lilith nodded her head
Lilith: The classmate you will be with are parts of those families or even branches of them, so just be wary to not get on their bad side and their evilness. Some of them of vile individuals that would do anything to entertain their egos. Well enough of that, lets keep moving. I got to show you where you're going to stay.
John almost nodded but he couldn't, the little girl that got hurt from those nasty nobles were still stuck in his head like a broken record. Seeing this, Lilith smiled with a lot love, just seeing a person showing compassion and wanting to help the weak/defenseless touched her heart. She patted his shoulders
Lilith: Look, the nobles are gone, and the merchants are tending to her needs. Even though they can't do anything about those nobles, but at least once they're gone, they could help out and try to cure them. In the end, they are in this together. So, it's okay, John.
With a deep beautiful smile, she screamed out while humming
Lilith: Lets go, John!
John smiled and nodded his head, gave one more look at the merchants tending and helping the little ragged girl. Turned around with vigor and marched with energy
John: Lets go!!
