As Frog led the group which only consisted Red and a wolf cup in his eyes. Starco who knew it was abnormal for robot cat to be flying around hid his precense.
Red and Rico still could see him but it was a see through. You could see everything that was behind Starco.
As they stepped in the city, the first house that came in theyr sight line was in poor condition. It was a wonder someone could was able to live in. The neighbour around the house didn't look much better either.
Freg who was already familiar with this started to explain" This is outer city, people who don't have anywhere to go started to live in here. As inner has more secure and better building than outer, the more we go towards inner the better it gets"
After walking while, Freg started to slow at hotel named Addresse. He opened the door and went inside followed by red and others.
Rico and Red were acting like tourist who were freely looking at everything that caught theyr eyes. The hotel looked quite stylish. It looked like they were ready to accept royals into the hotel.
An old man came from reception to guide his customers but his smile immediately dropped when he saw Freg. As he was experienced in handling matter, he quickly fixed his attitude.
Just as he was about to open his mouth to welcome to Freg and his company. Young man came inside the hotel. The old man once again frowned when he saw the left crest the young man had. The crest was proof of a high member in inner city.
The hotel was boarder line of inner and the outer. The hotel owner did not care who came as long as they had money. The rule was simple. Money was the king.
The crest were obviously welcome but they were sometimes young people who came in the hotel to feel superior to others.
The old man knew from how he walked with 4 guards surrounding him. He wasn't here to just talk nicely and leave. He heavy sighted and gritted his hand.
" Dear customers what can I do for.." Before he finished his sentence that he was saying to Freg. Knife crazed his cheeks and hit the wall behind him. Looking where the knife came from.He saw the young man retaking his hand back.
"How dare you talk with peasant before me. I, the second son of great Vale. You are placing someome before ne .You don't have desire to live, do you?" Arrogant tone was clear by the young man
"Sir, our policy is welcome customers by the order they entered the door and they were before you" The old man didn't panic as he was experienced with this kind of situations.
The old man knew how the most powerful nobles in the ground city were the Vale family and the young man was the second son. Even the old man was sweating little bit but he still had to follow the hotels rules.The owner said even if King came , the rules were same for everyone. The old man really admired the owner.
Seeing the old man rejected him even when he mentions his family name, he got frustrated. He ordered one of his guards to slash the old man. The guard didn't hesitate but just took his sword and dashed to cut the old man.
People started to distance themself from the old man and some of them left running from the lobby.
The old man knew he would get in trouble but he didn't think the young man was impatient enough to want to kill him.
He saw from second floor a woman looking down on him. The woman was the owner he admired but instead of coming down to help, she instead waved her hand saying goodbye.
No matter how much he admired he understood he was abandoned. He became the sacrifice pawn. In the end was he going to die from following the rules he was told to. "Maybe it was time to accept the reality" thought the old man and closed his eyes
Waiting for a moment and still nothing happening ,the old man decided to open his eyes again. What he saw shocked him.
How was the man who was coming to slash him on the ground. What happened?
" I don't mind you making your dramas but I would like to get a room" Red said indifferently
as everything that was happening was just another normal day.
The woman came down from the stairs and asked if Red had the money. She saw Freg from upstairs and concluded that the young man with the golden eyes wouldn't have much on him either . She just came to look good on Vale family. This was business, nothing personal.
Red went to the guard who was still unconscious and took coins from him pocket
" Is this enough"
Everyone on the lobby were in utter shock. Was this guy robbing in a day light and even a guard who's employer was from the Vales bloodline.
The young man with the crest was about to explode from the anger. He took a sword from one of the three guards and thrusted the sword towards Red.
Red though to himself " Is this guy idiot, one of his guards is down on the ground,nobody knows how and this guy
is still attacking"
Red continued his inner thoughts "Am too calm about all this, it's probably because of Lord of suprise"
The sword that was thrusting with amazing speed towards Reds neck was stopped by the little wolf cup who was sitting on Reds shoulder.
"Since you are into slashing people so much how about we slash you" Red said amusingly
The young man runned back to the guards. He stood middle of them and told them to leave. The guards were still on guard against Red as they backed away.
As they three guards were leaving. Red kicked the fourth one who was still lying in the ground and told him to leave. When he regained his conscious.He runned from the hotel as quickly as possibly.
Red turned back to the woman and said" Can you show us the room. Had the quite the long day"
Freg said goodbye and went on his way but Red insisted to take the coin which he "burrowed" from the guard. Freg didn't hesitating. There was no need quostion morals , it was survive.
The woman didn't say anything as she was taking them to the second floor and gave key card for theyr room and left quietly.
The old man was about didn't leave with the owner instead entered the room with Red.
" Thank you for saving my life , if there's anything I can do please tellme" The old man said with place face
Red who could reads thoughs knew the betrayal the old man felt today. Humans will throw away anything for theyr benefits sake. The humans have always been greedy creatures.
" Could you order food for us and don't let anyone else in this room" Asked Red the old man
After the food was delivered. Rico and Red ate theyr food with amazing speed. Starco who didn't need to eat was staring at the two who were gulping down all the food.
With both of theyr stomach full and sun setting. The three of them went to bed and slept
