BA YUCHO POV
*Damn it._
Ba yucho a warrior like no other,a knight. His battle instinct and wits make him stand out among his colleagues and never fail to amaze others. Until he met his end, a dragon snake.
Prideful Ba yucho decide to fight instead of fleeing. 'only cowards run from a fight' Ba yucho cursed at his fleeing friends.
Many of his friends tried calling him back. Not that they thought he is weak or a coward, But the dragon snake is too strong, even a king couldn't take it down.
T. T. D.
"Cowards!" Ba yucho cursed at his fleeing friends.
Yes, the beast is strong, It is one but we are many, it is no match for us yet you chose to run.
Behold I shall ret....
Behold the face of the water fool. The dragon snake expression mocking Ba yucho.
Things did turn alright_ More or less.
The dragon snake died and Ba yucho didn't survive either.
.
.
Confused, Ba yucho laid on the ground unable to move his body nor tilt his head.
Resounding steps echoed through his ears....
A fair man with two glinting eyes with a black hat in a black dress and black shiny shoes. A smile hanging on his face. His presence was overbearing, and every step he took gave an aerie sound.
This unknown Man bent down before Ba yucho, and open his mouth, but no sound was heard, his lips were moving and Ba yucho was still confused. "Ha, I should have know this." The unknown Man waved his hand.
"Your bravery amazed me. Better to die like a brave man than live a hundred years of cowardice."
"Their are rules we follow,boy. They can't be broken. The rules may not be to our liking, but we must abide by them, for they're laid down by a divine being."
"Who are you? What does the rule have against me?" Ba yucho mumbled out.
"Son, I can't contend with the rules, breaking it would destroy the world."
"I don't think we'd want that." Ba yucho said mildly.
Ba yucho take a childish delight in gross understanding.
"The rules brought you here senior?" Ba yucho asked.
"I am a part of it,son," the golden eyed man conceded "we are all parts of it. That is why you mortals daily life and death is so important. It is a heavy responsibility laid on us. If not the world would have been enormously changed or destroyed."
"I'll go now, but I bend the rules because you amaze me. Consider it a gift. when you are strong enough your memories I've sealed will open to you. Enjoy your reincarnated life." The golden eyed man slowly vanished away

I reared back, finally opening one eye to squint at nothing. Golden-brown hair spilled over his forehead, give me a roguish air. *I was a knigh†` I said reasonably,a lazy grin curving my mouth. "That's why I talk like one, probably. I was meant for battle."
"I am something, hehe. The mayor position... Huh.... What a wasted fantasy. I just need to get the May flower and run, but not now, the City Lord may come after me am still weak huh,"
_knock! Knock!_
The village head
No! What is he looking for so early in the morning.
I took my coat and moved towards the door.
The village head didn't seem to think about his irritated expression. He never even mentioned it when they finally reached inside.
The village head noticed something else, though. He paused in the act of sipping his tea and announced. "Ba yucho, you look exhausted his morning. Are you coming down with something.?"
Mortified, Ba yucho hoped his face wasn't as malicious as he felt. "I'm fine," I stammered "I just didn't sleep very well last night."
"You take it easy today,then." The village head nodded for emphasis. "The city Lord ask me to give to you this letter, I think it about the battle of the two elders and the unanswered questions."
Ba yucho did.
After the village head left. I rested on the closed door and breathe a sigh of relief. I almost bust out.
_
Ba yucho had just finished vacuuming his room,at mid-morning when the front door opened and a stranger walked in. And what a stranger!
Tall sleek and impeccable dressed in a blue robe that fit a magistrate, she smiled as she came forward with a outstretched hand. The closer she got, the more impressed Ba yucho was. Looking somewhere between thirty and forty-five, the woman wore her blonde hair in a sleek [french] twist. Her makeup was not subtle, but so perfectly applied that Ba yucho could only stare in awe.
Sophistication simply oozed from this woman she stretched out her hand and said,"hello, Ba yucho. I'm Jess, the city Lord personal assistant and I'll be helping you with your investigation. can you get me a room."
At this point, the bottom really dropped out of Ba yucho's world.
"Ms.Jess!" Ba yucho accepted the proffered hand, wandering what on Earth this unexpected visit might mean. "I wasn't expecting you. the village head didn't say anything about you dropping by."
"He didn't know,dear yucho." The woman expression looked faintly iconic."and please call me Jess."
`dear yucho,°
Just wait till I regain my power I'll annihilate this city and leave your continent in ruins.
Maybe.
Jess still looked dubious. "This is very strange,"she announced,"since the investigation is so important to have me here to do it, don't you think the city Lord is acting unreasonable."
"How so?…" Ba yucho couldn't help asking.
"Because the death of elders means nothing to the city, but the city Lord decided to rain guards and investigators on this simple matter."
"N-no,"
"Exactly. Well." Jess straightened,"if you'll show me to my room, I'll get settled in."
"Of course"
"But that's impossible!"
Jess's eyes narrowed. "I didn't move all the way from Katan Central just to say hello."
"But....but we're all full up. I don't have a place to put you."
"In your room,if necessary_ now , don't look so shocked." Jess laughed heartily."you can sleep somewhere else_ in the barn, whatever. You're a man, you are tough. You won't wound up."
"No. I am sleeping here in the house."
"Excellent."Jess waited expectantly.
"I suppose I could put you in a guest room."
"I'd really prefer to inconvenience someone I know as opposed to a stranger."
"Do I know you?"
"What? What's the problem?"Jess spread her arms in a questioning gesture.
"No problem. It's just that I try to keep the house for family."
"Think of me as family,"Jess suggested."Now if you'll excuse me, I'll grab my bag and you can show me where I go."
Ba yucho nodded, but his thought were tumbling.
The city Lord involvement in a small village internal matter. This is really suspicious. But this lady, she is more suspicious, she said we're close I wouldn't believe her. I'll have to keep an eye on her now. This is all strange.
The door swung open and Jess walked inside empty-handed, but with sparkling eyes. A much more portable storage pouch with large space.
"Ms.Jess, your room_"
"Oh! Thanks. And don't disturb me unless it lunch or dinner, Then I'll join you,"
`join me° I'm I one of her errand boy she can order around. `call her for lunch or dinner° okay, two can play the game.
Back straight,he marched up the stairs into his room, at which point she collapsed against his door in despair.
