The crack of dawn, shimmering limelight, reflecting what seems a day to spend bartering with clients, shopping for family, transporting goods to another. the flow of how the life of the medieval peasant and merchant neglective of what recently happened. Marchant borough where the accident made by the princess of this kingdom had no rumors or battered eyes. The destruction recently has been covered with a speck of dirt to stop those from uncovering the truth; the idiom 'see no evil, hear no evil, talk no evil.' is the mindset that those at the lowest embrace bosom. Fighting for the rights of those who died by the hand of a criminal seems only to apply to those with status.
Priests to gods servants could be seen praying at the market where the massacre had occurred could be the only thing that brings some life for others around Summer city.
"Here me oh god of fare and above."
"bless thee, love."
"bless thee, strength to those who fell to evil."
The priest chanted, and those around, barring the same symbol and similar robes, followed along.
Around the marketplace, not long ago, was bustling with criminals and corruption and a hint of innocent, now filled with people who share the same religion. Beggers bowing, mothers and children, people who believe in God turned before the priest and listened to his chant of blessing.
The priest, who had just finished blessing the scene of the crime, stood up from his kneeling position. Another servant of God saw the priest's knees filled with dirt and ran towards him and did his duty to clean the robes of the messager of God. Watching this happening, the priest smiled at the servant below him. Then he, as the priest, patted the head of the servent, which felt liberating at the action of the priest. Those who saw this began to cheer for the priest ever so more. Walking to his luxurious carriage embedded with gold and white, the priest ignored all shouts for his presence and proceeded to enter his carriage, leaving the scene.
Inside the carriage, the smiling priest is hosted by another person, looking straight at the man across from him. The smiling priest finally spoke after a moment of silence.
"Have you found anything?"
Hearing the priest speak, the man facing him answered without hinting anything else,
"No, It seems byron became one of the victims of the dark element user."
"Our investigation concluded that he was planning to kill the young hair of the Van farrow family.
"Therefore, the Van farrow family retaliated back."
".........." The Priest nodded.
The man facing the priest fell silent before completing his reports. then after a moment of thinking, he continued
"At least that's what it seems on the outside."
"Ohh," the priest reacted.
"Our spy has informed me that Masan was not aware of the situation in summer city,"
"This Dark element user is neither a member of Dark moon fly or servant of the Van farrow."
"The action of the Dark element user seems only to amend the danger surrounding the young hair of Van farrow."
"My investigate concludes, Should you approach Alden van farrow, we would only hit an ire of rage from dark element user."
"hmmm," the priest nodded.
" So, you're telling me to stand by and let a reckless simpleton roam around my city."
The man on the other side of the couch inside the carriage said nothing and continued to stare at the priest, dead straight at his smiling features. Silence befalls the carriage.
The Priest, knowing he had said something he should not have, put both hands up in a giving up position. Still smiling.
"..............."
After a moment had passed, the man continued.
"Even the weakest Grand mage fell at the hands of that reckless simpleton."
Hearing this, the priest frowned and put his hands down.
"Our mission is to not put ourselves in a situation that will reveal ourselves."
Hearing this, the priest nodded.
"All that is left is to watch and hear what will happen."
"I believe our enemies will hear the news and take action."
"Sooner or later, Summer City will become the center of attention."
"Desire will always seek a rough gem like a Dark affinity user."
Then the man who sat opposite side of the priest suddenly began to illuminate with blue light around his figure, with one last word and pointing at this priest who seems not surprised by this action has heard,
"You, Father Telly. Are to keep your distance until further orders from head office".
*PHEWWWWWWWWWW*
After the man mysteriously disappeared. The priest. Known as father Telly, just sat there and stared at the empty seat that hosted the man.
"HMPH"
