"Kairan: Surviving in the Modern World" CHAPTER 10
Now that I have read the 'History of Underground World' it seems like I need to get involve on crimes like human trafficking and others but I don't want to drag the innocent people just for some honor and money. What should I do now? If I want to survive I need to protect myself and in order to do that I need to do the same thing that others did.
I put down the book and grabbed the piece of paper before, the written words there are ancient letters that in my world are usually used and teach to royal families that commoners can't understand, why this language is here and the sentence there saying that…
'There is many kind of Law, Criminal Law, Imperial Law, Family Law, but to think, there is no such Law that always right there times that you need to put the law on your hands, eye for an eye tooth for a tooth law to law and crime to a crime choose wisely'
What is this? A reminder but who put this on my table? What is said on that piece of paper is true there is no accurate law or justice in one situation. The law is sometimes too soft for a tough crime and too tough for a light crime and sometimes people with high standing or more influential can play and pay to cover up something like what Kyros did in my past life.
It sucks when I'm thinking that I don't even get a revenge to him for trying to kill me and for torturing, killing my friends.
Now that I think about it, it such a good thing that while learning ethical manners my teacher is sweet to me and teach me how to read and write since he was the Imperial librarian he also show me the book and I teach myself how to read and write the royal family language and learn it on my own since he was a commoner if not I won't be able to understand this massage.
I stand up and lay down on my bed. I don't want to commit crimes and bring suffering to innocent people but I don't have a choice since I need to survive on what they are planning for me in the future, what should I do? While lying on the bed I heard that someone was knocking, I immediately stood up and grabbed the book and the piece of paper and hid it on one of the drawers on the table and sat.
"Come in"
"The master and mistress wanted to see you"
The unfamiliar maid is standing on the doorway staring at me like I was someone who doesn't deserve to be respected. I know that kind of look, as if she was saying that you're nobody in this house. I stand up and walk toward to her and smile.
"Really? Then let's go, please lead the way~"
We walk in silence on the long and wide hallway until we reach a two huge door she stopped and stand on the front of the door.
"The la—"
I didn't allow her to finish what she was about to say. I opened the door with a warm smile and ran toward where (mom) is.
"(Mom)! I thought you and (dad) were mad at me because of my attitude on the dining this afternoon"
I said and pouted at them, for now let's play the role of a sweet daughter. I need to make them believe that I have on interest in my past life.
"I know that you're worried on things since you don't remember anything but I will assure you that there is nothing to be worried about"
(Mom) said and patted my head like I was a good girl and again I felt something that made me feel light and made me comfortable for some reasons.
"By the way, why did you call me here? Don't tell me you guys are going to scold me?"
They both laugh and shake their heads.
"Of course not dear~ we call you here to say that in few days you can continue your study on your previous University"
(Mom) said with a tender smile and beside her (dad) that nodding his head for approval,
why so sudden?
"My previous University? So students there know who I am while I don't know myself? Can I go to a different University?"
I change the tone of my voice that sounds sad and pitiful as they look at each other and sigh of giving up.
"Okay—if that's what you want we will find you another University that will suit you" – (Dad)
I smile and reach both of them to hug. They both look shocked but still hug me back too.
"Thank you for understanding me~"
I said in a sweet tone.
------
I am now walking with the same maid from before and she still looks at me with hostility and walks faster every minute.
"It looks like you hate me don't you?"
She suddenly stopped and looked at me as she walked face to face.
"Yes—I really hate you, I don't know why you need to survive? You should have died!"
She yelled at me, looked mad and displeased at my presence.
"What's your name?"
"Malou"
"Hmm—then Malou this night come and visit me"
I said and came close to her ears and whispered.
"And don't you dare to mention it to anyone"
After saying that I start walking to go ahead to my room, playing the role of good and sweet daughter and working on how I can survive is pretty tiring. This is my first day here yet everything was in need.
First I need to build my own manpower and after that I need to find a way how I can get much higher status without dragging innocent people.
I finally arrived in my room and saw Chiki in front of the door waiting for me.
"My lady"
She said and opened the door for me.
"My lady, do you want some snacks?"
I didn't answer it, instead I asked her.
"Have you already found where Silver is?"
She nodded and handed me a piece of paper and wrote there the address where Silver is currently staying. I get some paper and write the command that he needs to prepare while we can't see each other and seal it.
"Give it to him secretly and make sure that no one will know also burn it after reading"
"Yes my lady, Then—please excuse me"
She said and leaves the room.
