Chapter 19 - 19: Scream and Revelation

After recalling Rick, Robert came back to his thoughts about how the last six months had gone by, how Knave had become like a family member to all the people in the mansion including him.

'Knave, let's have a party neither of us would ever forget'

'Ok Master ' after hearing my reply to him, he took me around the party to meet all kinds of people from the town.

There were some people that I already knew and some that I had seen for the first time, after going around for a while I finally came to the group which came from the orphanage.

Most of the invited we're people who knew me but some of them were kids who were young around 5 to 6 years old, they seem to be just brought here to fill their stomachs with good food or the warden might have brought them here to impress Robert and get them a job or it might just be sympathy.

No matter what I had to look and talk to them in a calm manner so as to not make a bad impression on them in the party, most of them were those that had a good relationship with the previous kid.

While Robert was among his group of old people talking about their day-to-day life, some old stories or their job, he would look around and see the bustling scene and he could not help but feel gratified.

If it was before Knave came he would be living his normal everyday life in the same routine without any changes, going to the farm to check on the work, going to the town hall to check on the town work, hanging out with some old guys or going to the mansion for rest, but since he came there was a kind of liveliness in his daily life, he had this kind of life when Vanessa was home so he liked his current lifestyle much more.

While he was thinking about it he kept stealing glances at Knave who was among the people from the orphanage, he was talking with them in a calm manner like an adult. Robert knew that Knave liked to behave like an adult so as to not look naive, while he was talking with them he suddenly fell to the ground without any explanation.

'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh' Knave suddenly started screaming at the top of his lungs while holding his head, the sound of his scream was piercing enough to make people understand that he was in great pain.

'Knave!! what happened did they hurt you? where is the wound my child tell me so that I can help you?' as soon as Robert heard his scream he came running to see what the matter was. He first thought that it might have been the kids from the orphanage who might have hurt him badly but latter seeing no outer injury he could only rule out that possibility.

The cry of pain kept on going for a whole minute but no matter what anybody asked or tried to help they could not find any wounds on the boy so they could only see from afar and give some breathing space to the boy.

While all of them were worried, Robert was already having a hard time controlling himself from lashing out on the kids from the orphanage, suddenly Sam came to his side and whispered into his ears and whispered his speculation 'Master, doesn't this situation remind you of what happened at Lady Vanessa's birthday 8 years ago?'

As soon as Robert heard this, the sentence hit him in the head like a lightning bolt and reminding him of what had occurred almost a decade ago, thinking about it he could not help but feel excited, happy as well as worried for Knave.

From what sam had speculated it might be that Knave was having his awakening, if it is true then he would not be any happier, but if not then there may be problems with Knave health which he did not know about and he needs a good doctor for that.

While he was thinking about future prospects the screaming suddenly stopped, when he looked again at Knave who was sitting on the ground, he could see the look of astonishment and shock on his face before he could ask what was going on Knave looked at him and said

' Master, I seem to have become a cultivator!'
