"I'm so sorry milord! I did not have any bad Intention!"
A man on his knee, pleading to the obese man with mustache adorned extravagant attire.
"Ugh, how many time do I have to make myself clear, soldier! Arrest that peasant!"
"Yes, Lord Ghist!"
"Another troublesome ungrateful bastard!"
Ghist mumble angrily to himself as the soldiers taking the kneeling man away.
"Stop it, my lord."
A voice come out among the crowd, gained the attention of all bystander and Ghist.
"I don't think It's right to treat him as you're doing now, please reconsider!"
Ghist becomes even more angrily as that man reveled himself before the noble.
"I'm a land lord, and this pitiful village is under my control! My rule apply to all of you!"
The noble spit onto the ground, looking down at the blonde man.
"You got the gut I must say. Dare going against the noble meaning facing death penalty!"
"Death penalty?"
"Oh, no..."
"He's a good person, but why?"
The crowd disbelieve what they just heard.
"Arrest that insolent man too!"
Ghist points at the blonds man as soldier quickly react to his command.
At this point, Ghist feel a chill down his spine as he met his gaze with the young man.
'I'll make sure to crave those eyes out from your skull' is what he think.
*whack*
As the baron turning his back away from the crowd, getting in his carriage. A sound of body fell on the ground bought his attention.
The man knocked out one of the approaching soldier out cold In one strike.
"Gahh! You know what you're getting yourself Into, right?"
Solider form a ring around the man, pointing their spear at him.
"Heh, for a petty justice you dig yourself a grave, unruly dog."
"Dog?"
Young man muttered.
"How much disrespect you're going to throw at us?"
"Because we're not born noble mean we don't deserve respect?"
'This bastard is taking too much of my time' signaling his soldier, baron Ghist left.
The soldiers and the man engaged in a fight after the baron has left the area. The man managed to defeat most of the soldier but he got injured then arrested by the remaining soldier.
"The lord said no one should die, for now."
"Yeah, It'll be hard to keep the look for the Luxem."
"He's beast, with only a hoe he almost got all of us!"
Soldier exchange their thought as they resolving the chaos.
"You're done, brave man, after the Luxem left you'll be receiving your punishment for the crime committed today!"
One of the soldier who wear a red cape with insignia of a circle and shield stitched on it mocks the Injured man.
The man was throw inside the carriage harshly as the they laugh.
"Haha, he think he can out number us!"
"I want to see his face when he's at death door!"
"More beer, more food, dam it!"
…
I silently followed after mom, but I lost them. Maybe at the end of this trail I could find them.
It's tiresome, It's uncomfortable, but the worry and concern for my parents are unbearable.
I continue to walk until a light appear over the horizon.
It's a village central plaza. From here, I can see many man wearing rugged leather armor holding a spear, separating the villagers and them in two side.
And a carriage guarded by dozen more.
Among the crowd there I spotted mom, with her unmissable silvery-white hair.
She seem to be speaking to the one with the red cape but he slapped her, sending her down to the ground.
"Mom!"
A pain seared my heart at I scream for her. I rushes to her as fast as I could.
"Uriel?!"
Mom's eyes widen as she sees me.
"What the hell is this for? Family gathering? HAHA!"
Fck you bastard! You hurt my mom!
I glared at the fcker.
"This little shit!"
He walk up to me and was about to hit me as mom covered me in her embrace as she cry's.
"NO, please not this child! Do not hurt her!"
The villager gather around us, scaring off the mfcker.
"Shit, just you wait!"
The man turn away, hiding behind the wall of soldier separating the crowd.
"Lynd... Are you okay?"
"Let's head back now."
An elderly lady helps mom on her feet as we were escort to a nearby house belonged to village chief.
"Uriel... Why did you come looking for me? Why?"
After we entered the building, mom get on her knees and cry.
She grabs my shoulder hard, shaking me.
Worry filled her voice, as she slowly break down to tear.
I feel bad for seeing her in this weaken form, my mom always bright and full of energy... This just depressing to see.
"-I'm.. Sorry... I'm worried about daddy and mommy..."
I cannot dare to look at her anymore as I feel enormous amount of guilt. What If the villager doesn't help us? Would she be taken away?
I can only look down on my own feet.
"You... hig... How precious you are..."
"Just a thought of seeing you hurt is killing me already, Uriel."
She hugs and cry.
The village chief comes as he sighed.
"Lynd, can I have a moment? It's regarding your husband."
"Boy, take care of Uriel."
The chief commands the boy who's turn out to be Jason. He have an usual look on his face... Eyes set on me, as he walks close.
"I'm glad you... you're safe."
His voice shaking. I make everyone worried.
"I'-"
Without letting me say any word, Jason turn always and mutter.
"Let's leave."
He takes my hand and guide me up the stair, leaving the two adults alone.
