Risk can't understand why a creatures on earth needs to live, if it will eventually die. Life for him is such a mystery, why would somebody be willing to risk everything so they can live a hellish life?
He silently watched a boy as he continued to apologize to a customer he had accidentally spilled with a glass of drink. Apparently a nobleman had collided with him, and now he was begging for her to forgive him and spear his life.
"I'm sorry for what I did, I beg you. Please don't kill me. " The boy tried to hold back his tears from falling, he knelt on the ground and took pity on the lady. What a scene, he can feel his blood boil and have difficulties to control himself.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The child continues to beg for forgiveness.
"Huh? You don't know how expensive this dress of mine is ?! It's even more expensive than your life! " And a lady started trampling on the child, Risk took his glass and drank his drink. He did not hear any noise from such a child, you could not hear him crying or groaning in pain. He quietly accepted all the pain on him, loud kicks, and etc.
"Disgusting creatures, the courage spilled on me a drink! How dare you, I can not forgive you that easily!" No one stood up to stop the events, people just continued inside the expensive restaurant with their chewing.
When he finished his drink, he lowered his glass to the table and made a noise. The lady stopped kicking and looked at him. He stared at her for a few seconds with a serious face before smiling and putting his other hand on his neck and waving the other hand in the air.
"Just ignore me, just keep doing what you're doing." He said to her with a fake smile on his lips, he don't want to get involved.
"Tsk!" The lady said and returned to kick the child. Suddenly just snap of the finger someone slapped Risk's cheek, he was surprised by what happened and didn't even feel the approach of the woman in front of him.
"I will never forgive you, after what you did! You will just leave me on the air, hanging?!" Risk was holding his cheek and blinked a few times, he was about to speak when the woman in front of him spoke again.
"Go to hell, you bastard!" And she kicked him hard as he flew towards the wall. He feel the coldness of the wall, he can't believe what just happened. Being annoyed, the woman walked over to the counter and sat on the chair.
"Isn't anyone serving me here?!" she complained and at once flipped her hair. She cross her legs as she lift her chin proudly.
"With all though your respect madam but you are not the only one to be served here, can you give me that slave?" She added that the lady's eyebrows were slightly raised but she was stunned and seemed to see something strange. The lady let go of the child as she immediately walked away from the restaurant after people look at her with an ashamed look. Seeing yourself as high in above will bring you down huh?
Risk nodded when he realized what and for what reason the woman kicked him, she did that to save the little boy from that old hag. She made a scene to embarrass the noble woman.
He left the wall and walked towards the woman who kicked him, and he removed the dust from his clothes.
"You are a good actress!" Risk said to the woman, she raised her eyebrows.
"Don't talk to me." She responded like nothing happened, like she didn't kick him to the wall at all. The woman's face seemed familiar to him, so Risk wondered where he had seen it. He held his chin as he forced himself to remember her face, he sat next to the girl in a chair in front of the counter. A few moments later he finally remembered it.
"I know yet, aren't you the princess of this land? What is your name again, hmmm? " He thought again, he remembered again what her name was and he was about to open his mouth when suddenly the girl covered it.
"Shhh!" She sneered, and looked around. She let go of his mouth and moved herself and to Risk's surprise the woman suddenly hold his wrist and pulled him away.
"Wait, where are you taking me?" He asked her but she just kept pulling him out of the restaurant and they went through the kitchen.
"What are you doing here?" They both looked up and saw a large gentleman in front of them. They're four times larger than them, and most of all their body is wide. They immediately continue to enters to the kitchen and run for their life.
"I'm sorry, but we have to leave!" The woman said again.
"Stop those two!" The gentleman shouted loudly, and they saw his fellow cooks. Risk just watched the incident, they ran away at the same time. They suddenly felt something coming towards them and to their surprise it was a big frying pan. After they dodge the frying pan, their next move is to rain them on all kinds of knives. The young lady screamed and let go of his hand, he thought he would need to save her but he didn't have to because she easily dodged all the knives. She's good.
Finally after a year the got out from that hellish kitchen, they're both catching their breath.
"Why are you pulling me young lady?" Risk asked the woman.
"Ahhh that's almost! I thought I was going to die." She snapped ignoring his questions.
"So why did you pull me young lady?" Risk asked again.
"Ah, they seem to know who I am already. I don't want them to blame you, maybe that poor lady already told them that we are together because of what I did inside the restaurant so I pulled you so they wouldn't recognize you and you don't have to drag with me."
"Thank you very much for your cooperation, and goodbye!" The girl ran before Risk could respond to what she said and in a flash she disappeared in the middle of the walking crowd. She just stole the show earlier to save that boy, and the lady seemed to resent that. Risk looked behind him and saw some running guards and it looked like that woman was their target.
Risk came out of the alley and he also starred in the middle of the crowd and walked as if nothing had happened. As he was walking along with the crowd he suddenly ran into someone, that was inevitable but he also didn't lower himself-guard.
He stopped walking and looked at the thing he was holding, round glass with a number engraved in gold on the side of the circle and a little arrow at the top. Risk knows what this thing is, this is a liner. You can call someone using this, you're reflection on the mirror will be the images that will appear on the other side.
His wallet was taken by a thief who bumps him earlier and in response he also took the one hanging around his neck. He lined some line numbers and then ended it immediately, he was right in his suspicion that the liner was still working, later on he heard it ringing he immediately turned his face to the mirror and his reflection in the mirror was gradually replaced by the caller on the other side of the line.
"Thief!" It shouted at him, he blinked a few times.
"I just did what you did to me." He responded.
"Oh! I'm sorry then, can we meet? To change equipment? " Risk nodded, there was no problem with him. He had something important on that wallet too, that's why he's willing.
"Okay let's meet at the bar."
Risk sat in a chair in front of the table, he was currently inside the entertainment house. He saw many people drinking around, and some of them are gambling. A woman approached him, wearing very short clothes that were almost reveal her soul.
"Good day sir, what can I do to serve you?" She asked her but Risk shook his head.
"I'm just waiting for an acquaintance, thank you very much for the greeting but I don't need your service." The girl nodded and left his table, risk was no longer surprised if she thought he was already an adult. Because many say he looks older than his age.
As what they discussed, Risk waited at the spot where the thief wanted him to sit so they could see each other immediately. Later on, a young man suddenly approached him and sat down next to his chair at the table. He looked around the environment as if someone was watching.
"I'm sorry for the long wait, and for what I did. I never thought you would catch me, and rob me. " He looked at the young man in front of him, based on his appearance. He is not from this land, unlike the clothes here. He is wearing a red silk jacket in the upper with an opening in the chest, and also a red silk kind of lower garments. He also wearing red piece of cloth wrapped around his head.
"Here!" He immediately took out his mirror, the young man in front of him was about to pick it up when he stopped it.
"My wallet?" He said, and the young man immediately took out his wallet. He quickly checks if anything is missing, and that's fine and nothing missing at all.
"Should I treat you to something?" Risk was shaken, he had no plans to stay in this place longer. He has been here for a weeks so he needs to go.
"I'll go first." He said.
"Wait, are you a traveler?" He looked at him and did not answer. He didn't have time because the train was leaving for the next destination he was going to, he stood up from his seat and did not hesitate to notice the young man who seemed to be his age.
"Thank you so much for returning my wallet, but I'll be the first because I still have to catch the train."
"Then let's go together, where are you going?" He did not answer it and was about to leave when someone suddenly entered the bar. He saw the widened eye of the young man next to him. He saw him trembling with fear, Risk sigh because he doesn't have any choice.
"To the window." He said, they jump into the table. They walk at the top of it, they can hear the whines of people but they continue to jump from table to table. After five tables, they reach the table that is closest to the window and the Risk first jumps into it, and gets out of the bar. He almost ate some sand but he managed to stand and then they run.
Really, he can't understand this day.
