Chereads / The Lost Hero / Chapter 17 - The Meeting

Chapter 17 - The Meeting

I should probably rest for some time here and try to gain some info about that cave. I don't believe sensei a bit, how can something he said to bring be so simple to attain.

{As he walks towards the city's gate he was stopped by a burly man}

{Looking at the well-made clothes on Haruto he changes his expression a little} "Hey, kid are you lost?"

Oh no, it's nothing like that it's just that my master sent me for some chores, that's all {saying that he smiles.}

"Oh..Okay" {Seeing a kid of probably 6-7 years of age being so comfortable while standing in front of a knight the man was surprised for a second.}

"Here kid put your hand on this stone tablet it will tell us if you have any criminal records or not." {Saying so he passed a stone tablet bigger than an encyclopedia to him}

{accepting the tablet Haruto casually held it in his one hand and put another hand on the top of it...chiiiiing a green light starts coming out of it.}

{Seeing him holding a 10kg tablet only using one hand the knight was startled again}

"Yoss! everything's fine you can go now, and hey, by the way, be careful inside the city, no matter how much a city looks beautiful from outside there is always some dirty spots lurking in the darkness. If you have any problem in the future you can come and find me, my name is Hobert and I am the knight captain of the guards of the poison city."

"Okay sure, *smiles*"

{Saying so he left}

"Hey, captain! did you find something special about that boy? It's not a common occurrence for the Poison knight to talk to someone with this much interest."

Hobert:- "Yes, he was indeed special..." {saying so he smiles and went back inside his office again.}

That Hobert guy seemed to be a nice person. It would be so good if I only meet people like that here *Sigh* but as far as I know, it's not that easy, now that I have said this I bet something bad is about to happen to me that bastard author is like that he cannot give me happiness for a second.

{As he was thinking about these things Haruto hears something loud coming towards him from afar}

Wtflying fuck is that now? Seriously now?

{A carriage was coming towards him with high speed}

Fuck! {As he jumps outside the carriage's path he heard a sound of someone's screaming}

"Ahhhh!!! Help someone please help me my child no!!!"

{As he went near the sound he was a woman or rather a pregnant woman with her right foot dislocated lying on the floor and blood was gushing out from her head like a geyser}

Dammit was that carriage guy blind? Should I help her or not? I bet if my mom sees me thinking about if I should save a pregnant woman or not, then she would have butchered me. She is also a mom I should help her, yes!!

"Here Mam! calm down, wait a minute let me heal you, please be calm for a minute."

I have that spirit water in my ring, I guess that would be able to cure her, I still don't know how to use heal someone using magic, I guess I should study more from now on.

"Mam, please drink this and you will feel better"

{as she drinks the spirit water her wounds started getting healed at an astonishing pace, everyone seeing the scene gasped, there were also many people with the look of envy and greed in their eyes.}

"Thank...you for saving me young noble, but my child?"

"Wait let me check him for a bit."

I guess using light magic to sense the baby's life force will do the trick.

"Oh!"

Lady:- "What happened is something the matter with my baby?!"

"No, nothing is wrong it's just that your baby is going to come out soon, you should call your husband he would be very happy to hear that baby is going to come."

Lady:- "That...my husband is no more *hic* hic*"

Oh nononono! wtf dude, you made her cry, but what should I say now to comfort her?

"I...I am sorry I didn't know"

Lady:- "Its fine sir you don't have to be sorry to me." {saying so she smiles} "But seriously I won't be able to pay what you did for Me in my whole life, in exchange for my baby's life I can only give you mine..."

"No!! please don't say that it's totally fine, and you also made me remember my mother so it was like helping my mother and I cannot take anything in exchange after helping my mother right!."

"Ok, then I won't speak anything else." {saying so she bows down her head again}

"My name is Kaisel, may I ask your name mam?"

"Young noble Kaisel, my name is Aisha."

"Okay, then lady Aisha I have some work to do so we will meet again later take care of yourself bye."

Huff, that was exhausting, but she was such a kind-hearted woman. I wish she gets what she wants in her life.

{After saying his byes he left to find a pub/ restaurant to find some clues and info about the cave his master mentioned.}

Damn all of these pubs have an age limit to enter, what do you mean you don't have milk? so you think of me as a kid *humph*.

{It was getting late and the sky was filled with clouds and thunder.}

It seems like it's going to rain soon I should probably take some shelter.

"Hey, kid there are you looking for an inn?" {as he looked towards the source of the voice Haruto saw a handsome young man of around 17-18 years of age calling out to him.}

I was thinking of finding an inn anyway, well it saves me time so it's fine.

"Yes, brother! Do you know of a good inn around here?"

Young man:- "oh that's nice then you can come with us, we will show you the way."

"En"

{As the young man was leading him towards a destination it started to rain}

Dammit, how far is this inn of his anyway? Or was he just planning to rob me or something by taking me to a secluded place? Pfft well, let's see what this weak piece of shit can do to me.

{As they arrived at a dead-end, Haruto heard a very evil laugh "hahaha"}

Oh my god, this is so lame.

{As he was thinking about random stuff from the shadows some people came out and started blocking all of his directions to escape}

"Hey kid hand over the spirit water that you fed to that traitor bitch, and you can die in peace then."

"*Sigh* you guys are fools, coming to steal something from someone without even knowing anything about the person."

{As he said that his figure blurred and the man who just said that felt a sharp pain from his mouth}

"ARGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! My tongue! my tongue!"

"Oh, Yeah I forgot about something, what were you saying about miss Aisha?"

"What miss she is a bitch who abandoned her humanity and married a demon folk even her child inside her belly is a demon a cursed existence which cannot be allowed to live."

{His figured again blurred and this time everyone except the young handsome guy* from before went limp and collapsed on the floor, they were all dead!}

{The person in front of the young man was no longer a 5-year-old kid in his eyes, rather he was a demon.}

Young man:- "Don't kill me please don't kill me!"

"Okay I won't kill you but you have to tell me where is Miss Aisha!"

Young man:- "She....she is probably dead by now...."

"what did you just say, she what?"

{Young man was able to see that the person in front of him was barely controlling his anger but the bloodlust coming out of him was enough to choke him to death, not wasting any time he said.}

Young man:- "Our boss went towards the church* to kill her and her son."

"Where is the church?"

Young man:- "Just 3 blocks away from this place."

{As he completed his sentence he felt his mind going blank and *Thud* his headless body fell down}

"You! whoever the bastard is you should pray that she and her son is fine otherwise even god won't be able to save you today."

{As he roared this he dashed towards the church}

(*babies are born in the church for normal;l people in their world that is why she was in the church)
