《Emperor》 Chapter- 1 ¡°No matter where I am I''ll come back, and take what is mine! You just¡­.¡± ¡°Hahaha. That¡¯s why I¡¯ll make sure to send you far, very far from this place that even if you want to you won¡¯t be able to. Hahahahahaahaa,¡± said the man, laughing hysterically. He opened a portal and threw the man along with a chair he was tied to into the portal. ¡°You Will Pay For It!¡± The man yelled. Earlier that day In midst of screeching and beeping sounds of machines, a man was sitting on a chair. Looking at his computer screen, and typing at a speed that made his fingertips blurry. He is working on a project that could change the world, and if he succeeds his name will be remembered along with great geniuses like Newton and Einstein. Suddenly, he stopped typing. His index finger is hovering over enter button, and large beads of sweat is forming on his forehead. It¡¯s his last chance. He checked over and over for any mistakes, and when everything looked fine he finally, decided to do it. ¡®Enter¡¯ He stood up and moved near a certain machine. It was a machine with two arc placed at a fixed distance from each other. Occasionally, sparks would fly from one arc to another and that was it. There was nothing else in the middle of two arcs however if you observe closely you could see refraction phenomenon while looking through the empty space between the arc like when you see through the area above the high temperature fire. He threw the pen between the arc and looked behind at his table. He clenched his fist. ¡°Yes! I did it!¡± ¡®After all these year I have finally succeeded.¡¯ He ran out of his lab dodging his way through people in corridor, occasionally colliding, but he didn¡¯t stop. People were cussing at him, but he didn¡¯t stop. ¡°whoa! slow down man.¡± ¡°He finally gone insane.¡± ¡°you spilled my coffee asshole.¡± ¡°Hey watch it!¡± He ran until he reached at front of a certain door. He calmed down his breathing, relaxed his body and knocked at the door. ¡®Knock! Knock!¡¯ ¡°Come in,¡± the man inside the cabin said. He entered. An old man was was sitting on his chair behind the desk, smoking a cigar. ¡°If you are here to beg for funding John, then forget it. I don¡¯t have any more ¨C¡± ¡°Haha. You don¡¯t have to worry about it anymore Mr. William,¡± said John, interjecting William. ¡°Hah? What do you mean?¡± ¡°Haha. I¡¯ve done it Mr. William,¡± John said, unable to suppress his excitement. William with an expression of annoyance on his face, ¡°Just Stop Laughing Like a Maniac, and tell me what you came here for.¡± ¡°As you know that I was working on a very ambitious project of making teleportation machine and today when I was thinking over what I was doing wrong, I came up with an idea. What if I increase the frequency of alternating curen¡­..¡±Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. ¡°Just cut to the chase.¡± ¡°Mr. William, I¡¯ve succeeded¡± ¡°On what?¡± ¡°On creating a first teleportation machine. This is the biggest day in the history of a mankind¡± ¡°Are you certain? Are you sure you are not hallucinating¡± William was still skeptical about what John was saying, after all he wasn¡¯t the first man to try making a teleportation machine, many man had tried in past to achieve this impossibility, and William was also one of them. ¡°Let¡¯s go to your lab. Let¡¯s see if your claim are true or another hoax,¡± William made his decision to watch a live demonstration instead of arguing here. ¡°OK then lets go¡± John and William went together in the lab. They reached at the lab where John demonstrated teleportation to William. William was rooted at his place with his mouth agape when he saw what really transpired. He couldn¡¯t believe it. He asked John to do it again. And this time he couldn¡¯t hold his excitement. ¡°It¡¯s Unremarkable,¡± William said while looking at a teleportation machine with fascinated eyes as if he was looking at the God himself. John mesmerized ¡°Yes it is. I will be remembered in history as a person who changed the world¡± ¡°Sorry John I can¡¯t let that happen¡± ¡®Pang!¡¯ Out of nowhere, John was smacked with a rod behind his head. ¡°Ugh!!¡± John held his head and looked behind him. ¡°You!! Why?¡± John walked toward the man, but tumbled. His head felt dizzy. He gripped the arm rest of a nearby chair and tried to stand with his wobbling feet. In the meantime the man walked behind John and once again smacked his head before he could stand. John felt his consciousness fading. His eyelid felt heavy and at last he fell on ground with ¡®thud¡¯. A while later John woke up. Blood was oozing out from the wound behind his head. His back hair had turned red from all the blood and his white lab coat was dyed red from behind. He tried to look around him but was assaulted with an unbearable pain form his wound. ¡°Ahh!!¡± When he tried to move his body he realized that he was tied to a chair with a tape. He tried to break free form it but it was too tight. ¡°Haha. Don¡¯t make funny faces John. I¡¯ll die from laughing you know¡± ¡°You!! William. Why are you doing this?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t it obvious?¡± William questioned John. John was confused ¡°What obvious?¡± he said, frowning. ¡®chuckle¡¯ William was amused from John expression. He couldn¡¯t help but chuckle. He pulled a chair in front of John, sat on it crossed legs. Lighting a new cigar and shooting its smoke on John. ¡°Oh John. You are such an intelligent man. A man who invented a teleportation machine but you still don¡¯t understand human nature.¡± William said while looking at something. John followed the direction of his eyesight. He was looking at the teleportation machine. John¡¯s eye widen in surprise. He realized why William did it. First it was surprise, but later it changer into anger. Anger that came from his soul, he wanted to strangle William to death. But it was not a mere anger that came because he wants to steal his invention. The anger came because it triggered his distant memory. The memory of his childhood he wanted to forget. It was about a time when John was 9 years old His father used to run NGO. NGO for those women who were physically and sexually assaulted. He was a good man, had a good reputation in the society too. He was a model husband on how men should treat their wife. He was a model father on how they should educate their child. He was the perfect man. But it was all a bloody facade. He never treated his wife gently. He never loved his children. He never even treated them as a living person. His wife was his tool to please the other, from whom he wanted favors, and the children. They were his slaves, slaves that only needs a bit of food and they will work for you all day. His mother couldn¡¯t take it any longer. She committed suicide. Her two sons saw her hanging from the ceiling. They called her mother several time but she doesn¡¯t responded. The children were staring at their mother¡¯s corpse, sulking while holding each other. They have no energy to even cry anymore. But this incident was never known. How could that hypocrite man let the people know that his own wife, in his own home committed suicide. So, he framed a man from his neighbor. He was sentenced to imprisoned, Nobody cross examined the evidence, nobody investigated. It was just an another open and shut close. However, you have to pay for what you did, and his time to pay has come. A year later he was murdered by the son of a man he framed as his wife¡¯s murderer. He was going to kill his two child too, but when he saw them he wasn¡¯t able to muster his courage. How could he kill those two boys who themselves were in no better condition. The children condition even increased his for the man by several notch. He stabbed the corpse of that hypocrite man 200 times to satiate his thrust for blood. He turned himself to police for murdering that asshole and the two kids were taken in by foster parents. In the present ¡°I will not forgive you William,¡± said John, eyes bloodshot and the veins popping on his forehead. He desperately tried to break free from the captive. He sneered. ¡°Who needs it.¡± John was still trying to break free from his captive, but his action were futile. The more he struggled the blood he loss. His eyelid started to become heavy, and his movement become sluggish. In mean time William started the portal and dragged the chair to which John was tied to near the teleportation machine. ¡°No matter where I am William I''ll come back, and take what is mine! You just¡­.¡± ¡°Hahaha. That¡¯s why I¡¯ll make sure to send you far, very far from this place that even if you want to you won¡¯t be able to. Hahahahahaahaa.¡± ¡°You Will Pay For It!¡± Chapter- 2 John gazed around him into the eternal darkness, however, nothing came into his sight not a single shred of light. The darkness was terrifying. Not because he could hear terrifying sound around him or something like that. It was a complete opposite of it. There was not the slightest sound of any living being. He understood that William has sent him very far but that doesn¡¯t meant there would be nothing around him. However, reality was different. He was somehow alive but couldn¡¯t see or hear a thing. John has never been in such a situation. He couldn¡¯t help but feel terrified of unknown. On top of that, he couldn¡¯t even feel his body. Theoretically, he should be dead but he wasn¡¯t at least not completely. He drifted far and far in never ending darkness. When nothing happened for a long time. He started remembering his family. His wife Marie and 3-year-old cute daughter Daisy who he might not be able to meet again. Will Daisy remember him when she grows old. Marie will have to take care of Daisy alone. He remembered his good memories that started after he met Marie. Marie was his lucky charm. She was his neighbor when he first met her. He thought how weird that girl was after all if you meet someone first time and greet them with a kick on their guts you won¡¯t have good image of that person. He remember. He was angry at her but slowly steadily they fell in love and married a year later and by next year Daisy was born. She was second best thing happened in his life. He took one month leave to be with Daisy. When she smiles it feels like she is a mini version of an angel. But now he will never be able to see them again, but he could not accept it easily that he will never be able to meet them. While John was looking over his memory. The scenery around him changed. The change around him caught John by surprise. It felt like someone suddenly switched on the light in a dark room.The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. The scenery around him was a landscape filled with greenery. But before he could be mesmerized by it, he encountered another serious problem. He can¡¯t see his body to be more accurate he was not having a body. It was like an air with a consciousness. He realized that by thinking he could move from one place to another however even though he doesn¡¯t have a body but he still couldn¡¯t pass through solid object. When he has experimented a bit and thought of looking around, he realized that this place was very beautiful. A place that can only be found in paintings and poetry. Where they describe the landscape in an exaggerated manner. But the landscape in front of him was just like that exaggerated painting. He wanted to sing a song. ¡°Are you thinking of singing a song¡± Out of nowhere, John heard a sweet voice of a lady. But that sweet voice terrified him out of his wits. ¡°Wha! Wha! Where are you?¡± ¡°Hmmmmm everywhere¡± ¡°Everywhere?¡± ¡°Yes¡± John was confused from that unknown lady reply however he still decided to accept it as magical world and ignored it. ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°We don¡¯t have names but if you want to compare us with someone from you world than we will surely be called God.¡± "We?¡± ¡°Yes there are many others¡± He wanted to ask how many? But he remembered something else which was much more important. At least for him. ¡°If you can be compared to god then can you please send me back to earth¡± ¡°I can¡¯t¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a rule of the Emperor.¡± ¡°Oh! so there is God above god.¡± ¡°yes¡± ¡°please let me meet Emperor. I will request him to send me back to earth.¡± ¡°He is not present and even if he was he won¡¯t do it, but I can send you to another world at least it will not be lonely there¡± ¡°But I have some unfinished business on Earth.¡± ¡°I know what business you have but I can¡¯t. But if you will go to the world I am sending you to, then there is a chance of you returning to your world.¡± After a long bickering finally, John agreed to go to another world, but after he agreed there was another condition ¡°Ring?¡± ¡°Yes, ring. You have to take it with you.¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°Because it is meant to be this way.¡± ¡°You have just met me today and there are already things that are meant for me.¡± ¡°Yes, you can say it like that. You were destined to arrive here John and when you arrive I have to give you this ring and send you to the other world¡± ¡°You are saying all the suffering that I went through was already decided by you¡± ¡°No you are misunderstanding your coming here was destined but how you will come here wasn¡¯t¡± John could only sigh when he heard this. ¡°OK send me to another world¡± ¡°Alright¡± The space in front of John distorted and a portal to another world opened. John went inside the portal and vanished. When John opened his eyes. He saw very high ceiling decorated with different colors gems and stones. The floor beneath him was cold, very cold. When he tried to look around him he saw people sitting on a large chair. Four people were standing around him and he was in the dead center around them. ¡°Welcome heroes you have been choos¡­.¡± A person was going to say something but stopped in midway. Chapter- 3 In a huge chamber, an orbwas floating high above in the air and slightly beneath it 5smallorbsas big ashuman headwerefloating. Below, many men and womennumberingmorethan 100 were standing in a circle around the outer perimeter of the circle carved on the floor. All of them were wearinglight blue robe with golden border. One of those who was lookingeldestwithlongbeardedamongthem glance over all the people present to check for any kind of errors. Wheneverythingseemedcorrectheslightly nodded while stroking his long white beard several times. "Begin casting," announced an old looking man. All peoples closedtheireyes and took a deep long breath, with this they began the chanting. With every passing moment the air insidechamber became warmer, and the body of all people started emitting glowing whitesmoke. That glowing smoke was absorbed by theorb highest above in the air, and the more smokeitabsorbedthemore itchangesits color from white to red. By the time peoples body stoppedemitting white glowing smoke the orb was already illuminating redness of it all over the place. When chanting stopped, within an orb a huge explosion produced nerve cracking noisehowever it doesn''t break instead it emitteda red colored smoke which was then absorbed by the 5 small orbs. The small orbs completely absorbed the smoke with in few seconds and started emitting white glow. Thefour-orbstartedrotating around the center orb whileprojecting a beam below atsurface. The rotation of orb created an illusion of glowing cylinder. After a while rotation stopped and inside the circle were 5 peoples. A person who wasobserving this event from far went near with a friendly smile on his face. ¡°Welcome heroes you have beenchoose¡­.¡± word stuck in his mouth. He stood there withwide-open armsfor a while beforeregaininghis composure. Heglancedat the old,longbeardedman,with questioning gaze but that man was equally stunned as him, but he still asked. "Arch mageErasmuscan you please explain what is going on here" But that old man instead gave him apuzzledlook. He himself don''t understandwhatwronghashappened. TheothermanwhoaskedErasmuswasabitannoyedwithhis silencebut he still doesn''t dare to show it outside. "I take my leave to report it to the Majesty," the man left with abow toErasmus. Erasmusstared at disappearingback of thatman who was unable to bare hisfangsonErasmusso went to king to report the incident so he could satiate histhirst for blood. Erasmuscould only shake his head on thenaivetyof a young man. He threw the tantrum of a young manbehindhishead andonceagainrummaged his brain for answer on what went wrong,that one of summoned hero is a baby. He noticed thatsummonedheroeslooking confused and then itstrucktohismindthatthe prime minister stopped in a midway of introduction so they might be a bitconfusedhefirstdecided to address the hero and then later he will think about the problems. "Cartertake the baby to another room andget some servant to take care of him,"heordered one of his disciples while approaching to heroes. "welcome heroes the goddess have chosen you for a noble mission of protecting the humansfrom menace of demon king.I arch mage ofYonaitempire welcome you heroes."saidErasmusin loud and cheerful voice. however,what he got in responsefrom summonedherowas silence. He could understand that they might be feeling a bit confusedat being sent to another world withouttheiracknowledgement. So,he thought of giving them a history lecture of their world. The lecturebeginswith an army of demonsmassacringa small village near the holyriver of Demus. Looting house that came intheirsight, slaughtering men, women even children who came in range of their sharphalberd, long as an average man.Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. But this was not their first manslaughter. The army of demons which started their march from thepalaceof a demon king in theeast,tothe humankingdomsin the west slaughtered each and every human that came intheirpath, and bynowitcould be said that they were inside the human territory so, the number humans they have killed would be countless by now. It won''t be wrong to say, humans were not fighting to win the war they were fighting tosurvive onemore day beforewhole humankind goes extinct, and to stop them from stating them in demon children fairy tale as a creature who eats the children who don''t go to sleep on time. That¡¯swhat they were fighting for however in reality it seems nothing more than a mere wish, a wishthat cannot befulfilled. When all door for humanities survival seemed closed. A miracle occurred. A Goddess descended from sky making her waythroughdark clouds formed from the slaughter of millions of humansouls. She called for the bravewarriorswho will end the terror of demon king. "Warriors who will put an end to the massacre of a demon army Warriors who willdefeatthe demon warriors who will lead the humankind. IGoddessof peace,Amery, summons you" With the summon of Goddess Amery, 5 brave warriorsdescended from the sky, piercing through clouds. They fought with an entire army of demon king and came victorious. They fought with demon king and came victorious. They lead humanity and made them the ruler of the land. With their work completed 5 warriors and the goddessAmeryascended to the heaven, but before leaving, goddessAmerymade 3 structures at threecornersof the continent. "My precious children whenever shall humanities facecalamitythey shall be used to summon 5 warriors to put an end to the menace." With these last words goddess once again ascended to heaven. "and rightnow,once again demon king is raising his head and to protect the humanity, we require you 5 heroes. The 5great warriors of goddess Amery." With this historylecture end and we returns to present time. All 5, now 4 heroes, after taking the baby away, listened to whole story from beginning to end. And the first reply that came from one of them was "I don''t know any goddess Amery. I''m just a normal school girl how could you except me to fightDEMONS!I want tocall mylawyer," the girl complained to Erasmuswhile looking a bit terrified with a mention offightingdemon.Afteralltheyare nottold to be friendly guys in her world. But someonewas misunderstanding it "I have seen many species of beasts withdifferentclasses like attack type, support type, fusion type and many others but never heard of a monster named lawyer which requires permissions of other to be called," said Erasmus withcuriosityarousedwith a new species of monster named lawyer. "Youold bastard don''t fuck with me....''sobs''Iwanna''sobs'' go home ''sobs''" He understood he misunderstood something and there was meaning inapologizingright now so for now he decided them to send them totheirroom for a rest. "You all might need some time to understand the situation so for now go and have a rest. Mydisciplewill show you all your room," said Erasmus, ordering disciples with his eyes action. Disciples came forward to take them totheirroom which was readied before they were even summoned. "Please follow usrespectedheroes we will take you to your assigned rooms." Four of them followed Erasmus disciples but before they could they could exit chamber. A soldier with a golden armor,Herald, entered in and notified all presents inespeciallyloud voice with a natural echo "His and her majesty will arrive shortly" By the time he said it. The king and queen were at the doorstep of the room.Heraldswiftly moved aside for their path. All bowed to greet King and queen of empireYonait,except four heroes, lacking in courtesy practiced in this world however they soon followed suit with the girl who was crying to be the last to do. "Rise," said king which was enough toprovehismajestic aura that could only come from the blood of royalty. The king approached Erasmus "ArchmageErasmus show me that baby" "As you command your majesty" Erasmus lead them to a separate room. All present bowed tokingbutthis time he doesn''t commanded them to rise. He just approached to one of an oldservantwhowas holding and told her to show him that baby. The servant raised her handto hand over baby to king. King gave her threatening gaze. His gaze was quite terrifying for an old lady. Shedoesn''tunderstand what she done wrong, she thought for a bit and realized what might be the cause. Thethoughtof the cause surprisedher. She changed her from the woman handing over the baby to the woman showcasing a baby to king as if he was thebuyswho hascometo buy phone andoldladywasshowing her the phone(baby)which was on her hand. There was nothing special about that baby except thetattooon his forehead. "What is this tattoo on his forehead arch mage Erasmus?" Asked kingRenantwhile trying to study the tattoo. "We don''t knowyour majesty" "What is the use of having a baby. We need a warrior.Ulric dispose of this baby,"orderedon of his trusted kings guard knight. "As you command" Ulric came toward the baby to take him but Erasmus stopped him "Wait your majesty. This is not a wise decision." "What do you want to say Arch mage I''m not a wise ruler?" "No,yourmajestyI''m saying weshouldnurturethis baby. The other 4 heroes came from another world and they have their own sense of world but this is a baby. We could teach him whatever hewants. We could make great warrior out of him." The king was thinking about Erasmus suggestion when queenAylethinterjected "Arch mage Erasmusis right. We should nurture him well. He can become a loyal soldier if nurturedcorrectlyand till than we could replace sword hero with another person.... Howabout Alice. She is a talented girl. She could replace hero." King agreed to what queen said without any second thought. He had great trust on her. Next day King called one of his general, Rowan, he was a great strategist and a most fearsome warrior. Kingwantto give him the baby hero to raise, so he could make hima great sword hero, but Rowan thought bit different than King. Chapter- 4 On his way to his mansion Rowan was constantly thinking about the baby that his majesty has given to raise him. He knew he was known as one of the greatest General inYonaitbut that does notimplyhe was a good teacher. He has taughtmany young ones before but it was all for nothing. If his majesty wanted the baby to grow as a great hero wouldn''t it would be betterto be taughtin palace, where all the people, best in their field live. It would be better there. The carriage suddenly tilted to one side throwing Rowan, sitting inside the carriageinto the air. The carriage stopped afterthat.Throughthe gap of curtain and carriage window he saw citizens gathering around carriage. Rowanquestioned carriage driver. "A poor ladyhas been hit by our carriage,"Carriage driver replied. Rowan furrowed his brows. Such a big carriage is not somethingyoucan miss so easily. Rowan thought that it must besomekindof trick to getmoney from him. Rowan ordered one of his guard to clear thepathandthecarriage once againstarted moving toward its destination. Carriage stopped at front gate of the mansion and a man who was standing beside thefront door approached the carriage and openeditsdoor. Rowan stepped out from the carriage with the baby in his hand. "Greetings sir Rowan" bowed the man. Rowan doesn''t greet back just slightly nodded but the man could not see it due to his bow for greeting. Another opened the gate of the mansion for Rowan. Rowan entered insidemansion.As it was a mansion so it was obvious it would be big andto fitthe stature of general residence,it needed to be have class but even after having all this Rowan wasn''t happy. He had wife and two children, a boy and a girl. His wife was busysocializing withupper-classwomen and children arejust influencedwith thishigh-classsociety and think themselves as a king. "Is something the matter sir"a butler asked Rowan. Rowan turned toward the man. He was a butler, assigned to him by the king. He was old and seen many people in his life so he could see the loneliness in Rowan''s eye. "NothingValus," said Rowan while turning back to go to his roombutSuddenlystoppedmidwayhe realized he requires a nanny for the baby.He once againturned toValus. "Valushire a nanny for the baby" Valuswas waiting for this opportunity. He wascurious about whose baby it wasorifitwasRowanbaby fromaffair but asking directly to his master would be rude and unprofessionalafterallthis matter is none of his concern, it was just hiscuriosityto know about it.Valusslyly tried to get the information out of Rowan. "Sirmay I know what kind of nanny you want to hire for...."Valuspausedmid ofsentenceandlooked at Rowan with a gaze which was asking him to completeanotherhalf ofsentence. "call him young master" asValusmind registeredRowan words. The look of surprise appeared on his face. He was ready for this kind of possibility but he didn''tthoughtthat it would really come trueafterallhis image ofRowan wasnot of someone who would cheat on her wife just because some other womanlookmorebeautiful. Rowan somewhat guessed whatValusmight be thinking. If someone out of nowhere bring a baby with him to his house when he is already married and even had kids,two on top of that than it wouldsurelooksuspicious. BeforeValuswould make even moreassumptionRowan thought of stopping his train of thoughts. "Just hireanexperiencednanny. This baby is one of the summoned hero."A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. Rowan''s statement shockedValus. He could notbelievewhat he heard. He stared blankly at Rowan. How could a baby be a one of a summoned hero? ''At leastmake a good excuse master'' "You heard it rightValus. He is one of a summoned hero. He is given to me to train him as a warrior," Rowan left for his room with ababyandwaited for nanny to come. ***** Valusleft to hire a nanny for the baby but one thing was disturbing him. He couldn''t understand why the baby was given to Rowan. He is a great general was right but at most he could teach war strategy and sword fight to baby but that is not the only thing that makes hero invincible. Hero also needs to master magic, learn to use all kinds of weapons and get field experience fighting demonsnotothercountriesthat is usually general''s duty.Wouldn''t it be better if he was trained in palace in magic and all other aspects and if king really wanted to give baby to someone to train wouldn''tit be better to give him to Ronald. He is most experienced warrior ofanti demonarmy. Valusthoughtsame as Rowanon this matterbut the difference in Rowan andValusthinking was thatValushas some vague idea of why Rowan was given baby. After all he wasn''t royalbutlerpreviouslyfornothing. Valusthought''s traintook himwayahead of his destination.Valushad to run all the way back to nanny''s house. He knocked at a certain door and after a while a woman who looked in her mid 30s opened the door. The lady doesn''t remember who the old manwas but he was sure she hadn''tseenhim before. "Whoareyouold man?" Asked woman, ready to grab the knife lying just a bit away from herif old manmakeany suspicious move. "We have met only once so it couldn''t be yourfault,"saidValussighing. "I don''t remember you so could you tell me who you are mister?" She asked once again. "LaraYou used to work in palace as amaid when I wasbutlerthere.Let''s not talk about the past and let me tell you why I''m here." Lara was sure that this old man dressed in blacksuitherewas to offer him a deal. A deal that is,ahigh-classnoble is interested in you and want to take you as his mistress. Inotherwords,he was here to buy her. Lara was ready to jump at his knife to slit this man throat assoon as he says it. She pumped energy in her legs and waited for the man to open his mouth. "I want you to...." BeforeValuscould say any further Lara took a step behind, twistedher body slightly and stretched her arms to hold the knife, lying on table. She gripped the knife as tight she could and charged at the old man with an intent to slice him in two. But when knife was just a bit far fromValus, asphericalstone out of nowhere popped infront of knifes blade. Lara has put her whole power in the attack so when theknifecollided withsmoothshiny stone spheres, knifegotdeflected.She disbalancedand fell on the ground. Shestood onceagain to ready another strikebutsomehow she was unable to lift her feet. She looked at her feet and sawherfeetrootedin floor. "Mage!!" She gasped. Mage and as a butler this time someone big noble has come to hire us. Valuswas surprised with Lara''sreactionbut on same time knew why she did it. She was really beautiful and anyone who would see her would definitely want her for himself. If any other butler with zero fighting experiencehadcome to her, he won''t be able to leave unscathed from her fierce attack. Lucky for him he personally came to hire her. "I know Lara before me many people had come to you with not so good reason but I don''t have that kind of intention. I know what happened with you and I know how hard is life for you that¡¯s why when my master told me to hire ananny. I directly came to you." Laraheard the man. After all she didn''t haveany otheroption. She heard him till end and a largeloathingsmilesurfacedon her face. "I knew you were just like others and you were lying. If you would have known me before you would have known that I have never worked as nanny and I was just a daily chore doing maid." "I know Lara but I also know that you have a son. How old is he? 2 or 2 and a half? Your conditions are bad andyoucan''t take care of your child properly but as you had managed your child alone since he was born I assume you haveadequateexperiencein handling a baby that is why I havecameto you Lara.This Job will help you." Lara started thinking about what the man was saying and trying to find error in his theory but everything he said was true. She was totallyconfusedabout what she should donext. should she refuse or accept the offer? "Lara I''m offering you a chance to helpyourselfdon''t let it go away" She was conflicted. She couldn''t trust a man she had never seen beforeatleastas far as sheremember. She gritted herteethand finally agreed. "Allright I agree." Chapter- 5 This world is dangerous. King want to kill me, a baby. I was fortunate that old man and queen voted against it. Howeverright now everything seems well and good except the face of a man inmyview. His face is not scary but still hisall timeforward looking eyes and serious face makes me feel like I am going to be killed any movement if I make even a tiny bit sound so, I am making suremylips are sealed all the time. ''Ow'' It felt likeourcarriage went through a speed breaker and driver didn''t decrease the speed. This already suspension less carriage was giving pain all overmytiny body and now this speed breaker. EitherthisgeneralispoororthiscarriagedriverIsrude. ''Ohgod!'' It wasn''t a speedbreaker, it was a woman. A woman is rammed by our carriage and this ruthless man does not even bat an eyelid to that woman. He just ordered to remove the crowd and move on.Previously, he felt grateful to old man and, queen but now it felt like it was all an act. ''they conspired against me. Shit!'' He didn''twantedto go through the same kind of hell twice. While he wasfellingdepressed, his eyes wereplayingtheirown trick. Even though he didn''twanted,his eyelids were still trying to closethemselvesas if someone was intentionally trying to force shut his eyes. He tried his best but still, in the end, his eyes closedand,consciousnessdimmingwith everypassingmoment and before he could realize he was in deep sleep. In his sleep, he saw a dream. The dream which feltas if it was true. "Whoa!did I came back,"said John after looking around him. It was an empty black spacelike the previous time. "No," a lady voice came from behindhim before he could think anyfurtherabout hissituation. John heard a sound of a woman behind him. He turned to look at the source of that unfamiliar sound. He saw a womanwith white hair, wearing white robe. Her voice was somehow echoing in that empty space. "Find demon king and make heryour ally." "Wait what?" Before John could process her words, she vanished,leavinghimalone in the darkness,however that doesn''t last for long. Humans need to blink and that is their involuntary reflex so even John has to blink his eyes so he closed his eyes but when he opened it once again it wasn''t the same dark empty space. It was filled withcolorsas ifaurora seen inAntarcticand,Withnext blink itchangedto quite scene with a view of a woman''s face. She was dressed inmaidkind ofoutfitabout John wasn''t muchknowledgeableaboutand was holdinghimin her arms and trying to speak with him in baby like voice.He assumed she must be nanny. ¡°baby want to drinkmealk. Open your mouthaaaaayumyumyum.¡± John saw childishbehaviorofnanny. She was holding a milk bottle and flying it like a rocket whose target was John¡¯s mouth. He wanted to saythat he was a baby and no matter how much she¡¯ll speak He won¡¯t know he has to open his mouth but John could understand her intention and knewwhat she wanted so instead of ignoring her, he openedhis mouth wide. John could see surprise onnanny''sface. Now he realized, he shouldn¡¯t have opened his mouth but nownoresult would come over thinking about spilled milk. He started to think about time when he used to do same thing with his daughter however she was a bit crying type but still he liked her. On the second note he thought what is the big deal if hedon¡¯tact like a babyafterall,why should he act like one when he know he could do more. He thought about it for long time and he couldn¡¯t think of any possible problem that could come from it so he decidednot to act like a baby and hint her that he can understand everything. By this time milk also finished and the nanny took the milk bottle out of his mouth and placed it on table. In meantime John took the cloth lying on his side and checked if it was clean, and after checkingabit,hewiped his mouth to remove any spilled milk around his mouth. ¡®Hey don¡¯t look surprised again¡¯ Nanny was once again surprised withhisactions. She stared at baby intently and baby also stared at her. They stared each other for long time. After a while nanny put the baby on cradle and ran outside. John was totally confused ¡®I thought it would take more than that.¡¯ nanny didn''tcameback for long time.In meantime John started thinking about what the goddess said. To make demon king his ally and even if she was saying king, the king was actually queen becausegodesssaid ''make her you ally'' ,''HER''.Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. ''I don''t thinkgoddesswould makegrammaticalmistake'' And also during his college time few of his friends were in this type ofdemonking and hero novel and they were mostly killing demon king in the end and living happily after. Why did I have to make friend withher....or him. ''Should I feel regret for not readingthose novel? Well anyways I don''t think hero life will be hardafterallI am a hero'' And after sorting out his feeling about being hero.Johnthought of taking a nap once again. He was feeling dizzy. ''Child''s mind is not meant for thinking Ibelieveand what''s this text in front of my eyes'' Johnwaved his hand around the text and rubbed his eyes but it was still there. Now that hethinksabout it herealizesthat it was there from starting but he was toofocused on all the drama going around him that he doesn''t realized it and now that he had peace of mind henoticethat text however before he could focus and think more about it, a crisis came in. John needs to go to washroom. "#@*#@*#@*" John tried to call nanny but he wasn''t able to speak his voicewasn''t developed and himself he couldn''tgo to washroom. ''What to do?'' His childish body couldn¡¯t take it any longer. He tried to endure it as long as he could but his undeveloped urinary bladder muscleweregiving in. ''noI can endure it'' Assurance was not working and no other way could be seen. John was ready forlaunch butbefore he could do it, nanny came back with an old man. "BelievemeMr.Valushe isnot anormal baby," said the nanny to old man but old man was having an expression of beingbored.Old man was skeptical about whatever she was saying. If not for the constant nagging of Lara he wouldn''t havecame. "Show me." "Ok. Heroif you can understand me raise your left hand." He wasn''t able to understand what nanny was saying or in other words he was not in the condition of being able to understand. John raised his little right arm and folded his all fingers expect little finger and waved it in front of nanny. "#@**&#@**&"(Take me to bathroom) "Aww little babywantto say something?" Hefocusedall his energy on waving his tiny right hand with even more tiny little finger raised. ''Oh no!'' All doors for redemptionwere closed and flood gate broke open.Creating awarm sensation between John''s leg andall the water of flood gate was getting absorbed by the blanket on John which wasspreadingitswarmthto whole middle region. It took a bit of time for Lara to realize baby has peed. "Little devil you peed on bed." Lara held the baby and ran toward bathroom followed by old man running behind them. Inside bathroom Lara poured warm water in a small tub designed for babies and gently put the baby in it for a while after which she took the baby out of it and cleaned his whole body. WhileValus, standing on side was observing all this. "Lara instead of making nonsense take care of baby seriously. To get you this job I had basically liedto mymaster. He asked me for experienced nanny and by no means that how experience nanny works. I don''t want to get in trouble because of you." Lara heardValustill end. She was really grateful forValushelp but what the baby didearlierwas clearly something other wouldn''t be able to do, not even dreams so, how couldn''tshe get excited but forValussake She needs to be more professional even if she is not. "I''m very sorry Mr.Valus. I assure you it won''t happen again." "it mustn''t." With that saidValusleft for his own work. John was taken back to his room and put in his cradle. If he would be agrown uphe might haveranaway withembarrassmentbut his baby body savedhim some trouble in this matter. Heremaineddepressedfor few hours and once again slept. This time no lucid dreamthough. He woke up at night, lying in cradle. Nanny was sleeping at the bed beside him. Unable to move his body, neither able to sleep he started to think about all the things happened earlier. Hedecidedto actaccordingto his age else if people knew he wasawareof what he did at young age they were going to taunt him for that and, he didn''twantedthat. He was thinkingofotherthings when he realized the hovering text over his eyes. Hetriedto touch itagainbut he couldn''t it wassomehowembedded into his retina and even when he closed his eyes he could see it. In his mind he saidwritten word. ''status'' [Status] Name - None Class- Hero Sub Class-None Skills- Claws Lvl 1, Soul Roar Lvl 1, Basic transmutation Lvl1, Sleep Items- Ring of The Emperor Title- King of living beings It was something he was quite certain would happen. A table opened showing his name, class, skilland othervarious stuff. He hadvagueidea of what it was from the conversation of his college friend who were in this kind of boring thing but it was long time ago so for most of the part he was clueless. He went through the whole status window once. He had no name and his class was hero. Whose description was given as the one who would defeat demon king and bring peace to the land. Description instead of helping him increased hisconfusion. At one side he is meant to defeat Demon king and onotherside goddess toldto make demon king ally. After that he went through the skillpart. He saw a skill,interestingand at same time useless, it was sleep. What is the use of having sleeping as a skill, isn''t it something that occur on its own. Heconcentratedon that skill to know itsdescription. [Description of sleeping skill] Options- Nap, Half Sleep, Deep Sleep By the short description, it was understood that the skill was useless but he still thought of trying it. He chose the deep sleep option with a time limit of 10 hours and with a merethoughtof activating the skill it activated and before he could understand anything he was in deep sleep. Chapter- 6 I woke up exactly 10 hours later. Thatskillworked great but that kind of skill would be great for a person who has problem with sleeping. Best substitute for sleeping pill. It could have helped me in my previous life when I was unable to sleep because of my obsession of making a teleportation machine and every time I tried to sleep,my mind would start wandering on what to do next. Well I think thatwasa common problem for those who do thingsnotjust for sake of doing it. When I gotholdof myself fromthefuzzy consciousness due to sleeping I realized an old man was staring at me intently. He had large white beard that were almost touching my stomach and his brows were furrowed for some reason no wait.... it was his defaultface. Old man straightened his back and looked at a womanstanding beside her whomI have never seenbefore. She asked that old man, probably doctor about my conditions. "There is no problem my lady my medicines could even revive dead. Whats a big deal about waking an unconsious child" I could see on her face. She wants to throws him out. "I''m asking why it happened?" "Nothing to worryladySaramanits normal for baby to sleep when they are awfully tired" I don''t know if he is making all thisorisseriousabout it but, one thing is sure I won''t be going to him if I ever get sick. "you may leave" With thatsaid she takes me out of the cradle and holds me in her arm. Then she orders nanny to leave them alone. Nanny bows and leave the room. Shetakesme near to the window.I could see the bright sunny day, no clouds in the sky, it''s hurting my eye. She looks atme, her expressions complete opposite of when she interacted with Nanny and doctor. She looks at me and smiles. I bet she is my mother. But I could see sadness in her eyes. This is triggering my bad memory. Sun rays fall on her and me and she stands there with me for quite awhilethensheput me backin the cradle and with last good look of my face she leaves the room followedwithnanny enteringin room. She changes my clothes andthenfeedsme soup. After that, she cleaned the room and rested on the bed.I was feeling bored to death my mind couldn''t stop thinking about things like what kind of place it is, what I will do and many other things then I suddenly realized that sleeping mode. I set it to 1 hour and activated. I woke up 1 hour later and it was still the same. I was lying on the cradle, nanny was sitting onachair. I am bored. I wanted to use that sleep optionagainbut I don''t think itis agood idea. I read it somewhere that you shouldn''t sleep much, it is bad for health. It continued on for probably a month, there wasn¡¯t anywatchor calendar.I passed my time by looking outside the window.All day I would look at the changing direction of sun rays and by that I tried to figure outfromwhere sun wasrising and wheresettingbut it was no use Iain¡¯tnoexpert in it.Then I started noticing myenvironment. My room, it seemed tobemadeof bricks, painted with light blue colorbut,there are no lights in my room however there are candles, guess no electricity here. Butalltheseweresmall problems my largest problemweretwo kids,they are my step brother and sisters. Nowadays they hang around and play with me as if I''m a toy, stretching my cheeks, making a sketch on my face when nanny is not around. Where the hell ismom?One daywhen the kids were pestering me I activated claw skill my tinyfingernails turned in 3 cm claws. They were shining yellow however instead of being afraid they were mesmerized by it,littleboywhosename was Jeff even tried to touch it and, that¡¯sthe part he gets hurts andstarts crying. His cry alerts the guard, they barged inside the room seeing littleJeffholding his bleedinghand. They look around for an intruder but nobody was there then they askolder girlRina, she points at me.A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. "That baby did it," Said Rina bitterrified. That guard look at me especially at my right hands finger which haslittle blood on it but, his frowning face was telling me he wasn''t buying it. He looks back at Rina then back at me and then at Jeff, who was crying. He orders one of his subordinate to take him to doctor and left with two guard guarding the door of a room. Few moments later nanny took me for a bath and afterand after that I was once backin my cradle.I started regretting what I did. I never thought that claws would be so sharp that they would cut through the flesh and,first of all it wasn''t even claws they were pure mass of light shaped like claws.Therebest description would be miniature versions of light savers fromStar Wars. When it came in contact with the flesh there was no resistance from the flesh, it felt like moving your hand in air with zero resistance. I hope the wound won''t be as serious as it looks like. From then onwards those kids never even came near to my roomand, I lived a happy life afterward.At leastuntil they took me out to go somewhere. Our whole family was going somewhere mother, father and two kids. I''m sitting onmother''s lap while father is sitting beside me and kids are sitting on the seat opposite to ours however they are trying to maintain a safe distance from me, because of that incident probably. We stopped in front of a building, 5storeytalland a large symbolplacedon top of it. A servant opens the door of a building and we enter inside the building however our servant doesn''t enter they stopped outside the door. Interior of thebuildingwas like a church with slightdifferenceslike floatingstatues ofwomenand one mighty looking statue of a man at front andtwo women beside him. The statue was huge, almost touching the ceiling.Manypeople were present inside dressed in luxury. Mother puts me on a stone pedestal in frontofprobablytheirgodstatuethen a priest like man came from the side and started praying to god. Fromhead of the male god statue a blue ball of light appeared andslowly started approaching me. ''hopes it notGoku''senergy ball'' It was coming nearme with everypassingmoment. I was kind of freaked out but I had a faith that all these people are not heretic and I''m not asacrificeotherwise it would imply that wholeempireisofheretics.However,that energy ball stopped about ameteraway from me and a popup appeared in front of my eyes. Blocked ball of inspection. Before I couldcomprehendwhatit was two more energy balls appeared out of the headof a statueof female god however even they stopped about a meter away from me and once again a popup appeared on front of my eyes. Blocked Ball of submission. Blocked Ball of naming. A Blue ball and two green ball were hovering over my head. While I tried tocomprehendthe meaning of those lines but again something unpredictable happened those balls merged with each other andahuge shockwave spreadthroughoutthe church. Faces of all the people sitting were telling me it wasn''t meant to happen. Please give yourself a name _ Once again new popup appeared telling me to give myself a name. I enteredmyoriginalname in it. My name was appearing as a hovering text above me and that was something everyone was able to see because everyone was looking a bit above me where my nameis being displayed to all. JohnSaraman chapter- 7 Jake pushed the door open, painted in golden and carved with exquisite pattern all over it surface. As always Big round table at the center and same four people were sitting around it.Jake walked toward the only seat which was unoccupied and sat on it. It was time for a monthly meeting of high priests of Ronait empire with the archbishops of Ronait, appointed by the pope. The eldest man who was the archbishop sitting on the biggest chair and resting his hands on a golden colored stick, holding underneath his palm and other end lying on the floor glanced over four peoples sitting inside the room and signaled with his head to the man sitting beside him to start the meeting. The order of speaking was according to the seniority so, Jake was last. He was youngest among them but that doesn¡¯t meant he was any weaker than others. He was the most talented if ranked according to abilities in magic. He had an innate ability to control three elements and before he reached twenty he mastered all of them which was a great in itself. People like him were very few and far across whole continent Who don¡¯t only have ability to control three element but also are able to master all three. Jake loathed all these people rather than being a monthly meeting it should be renamed to monthly beggars meeting. Yeah right instead of stating their achievements they states their weakness and not once, every time its same. If he was the bishop he would have already thrown them out long time back. It was Jake time to speak now. He rose from his seat looking directly in the eyes of archbishop. ¡°In previous month there has been a significant increase in the church followers, about 5000. I have specially rallied all over my region attending peoples with need and showing them the correct path. I regularly holds a function which help our god¡¯s follower to connect with the god. I had-¡± ¡°Jake lets stop with telling what you have done and tell us more about the summoned heroes,¡± interjected a man sitting on the opposite side of the round table. He furrowed his brows on that man. His name was Sahaal. Jake despise him because Jake thought he was here by latching on the thigh of bishop and becoming his right else that man has no talent to be considered a high priest. ¡°Yeah. I even heard that some kind of incident occurred in the church of nobles¡± Jake smacked the table with his both hand creating huge thud sound. All persons looked at him. ¡°You don¡¯t even dare to speak. You are the last from whose mouth I want hear this. Acting all inncocent when I know that you already know all about the incident¡± Jake bursted on that woman like a thunder storm. Jake calmed his breathing and tried to take that manipulative woman out of his mind. He would have thrown her out if not for archbishop. "They were just a minor problem. Not worth mentioning" Archbishop sighed and spoke "Heroes are not from our world and they do not follow our religion and if summoned heroes ostracized us anywhere in future it could lead to discords among our followers," said the eldest man. Jake would agree on what the elder said this time. They could lead to future problem if not handled properly. Demon king is not the only person they need to be defeat. What if after defeating the evil, good also becomes an evil. It won''t be a situation you would want. Jake finally spoke about the summoned heroes and the summoned hero who was a baby also about the accident that happened at the church of nobles at the naming ceremony of summoned hero baby.Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. "We might get a great believer if we nurture him properly," said one of them. "Yes I agree." After a bit more discussion meeting was declared finished and all left for their respective places. When Jake was living he heard the voice of a eldest man. He turned around to look at him. He was still sitting on his chair. Jake approched him. He told him he was doing a great work and one day he will become the most popular person whom every person will know about him. He was on cloud nine after hearing the eldest compliment, its not like he like the eldest but still felt good when someone higher than you acknowledge your work. "I know you will do a great work in future and will make the church proud." Jake was happy after hearing the eldest compliment. All the way to the home he kept smiling all the lady who saw him were smitten by his charm but two bad for them a priest cannot have reltionship with anyone and if anyone is found having a relationship. They both will be killed and their corpses will be fed to beasts. What can be more agonizing than not getting peace even after death. somewhere in west of Ronait "Get losttwine don''t show me your face until you have money or at least a big leg between your useless legs." An old looking sober man was thrown out of a room by a woman wearing a revealing dress but, her face couldn''t be seen clearly because of the different colored lights they have installed. Only the outlining of her figure was visible, however, even that was enough send you in a fantasy world where you are having fun with her. "I think I will have to get someone from street hiccups" The sober man crashed into a hooded while muttering something. His expression can''t be seen because of the hood but his clenching fist were enough to show his displeasure but that sober man was not in the mood to read the atmosphere and further insulted the hooded man. "watch it twat your daddy walking" The hooded man was ready to pummel that man with his fist but was stopped by a sweet voice of a lady. "Hey you shy guy. Wanna have some fun?" It was the samelady who threw that sober man out of the room. Inviting him for a fun night. The hooded man decided to approach that lady instead of beating a crap out of that sober guy. "What a bitch?" The sober man walked away with these last words leaving the anticipating crowd utterly disappointed¡ªsome were busy like rabbit to even notice this commotion though. Inside the room hooded man was sitting on the bed that was overly cushioned if meant for sleeping but that¡¯s not what it was meant for and lights around kept changing their color. The man was annoyed by the lighting. He snapped his fingers creating a spark out of his hand. Those tiny bits of spark flew toward those light and they all stopped changing their color leaving a room filled with white light as if it was a day. The lady who was showing his alluring figure to pubic was now bowing to a hooded man but that figure was making it hard to focus correctly. The man lifted his hood and commanded her to rise. "This unworthy self greets you high priest Jake" Jake smiled and nodded. "Is there any news" "Yes your highness" It was hard to believe that it was same the lady who was just a moment ago acting all high and mighty but now acting like a faithful dog wagging his tail to Jake. "speak" "Yes your highness. A noble working for prime minister who came here mentioned about declaring the summoning of a hero and there was a news that Amanda, niece of present queen is going to replace the sword hero till the real sword hero grows up and is able to command other heroes and also after the incident at the ceremony the rumor is going around that the baby is a monster summoned by the help of demon king hence there is some discord among public about it" Jake heard all that the woman said. An evil surfaced on his face after hearing the news. He was hatching a plan that can''t be considered good. "You have done well my child. Now it is time for your purification my child" Said Jake with his arms opened wide and giving a pure smile. The woman was happy after he heard Jake. She was not happy living here but she will do anything for his highness. She would prefer to be purified daily after all it was hard to tolerate the bastard who looks at her with perverted gaze. She rose to her and came near to Jake. Sitting on his lap while facing him. His breasts touching Jake chest-- getting pressed even more harder after she tightened her grip around his chest. "Don''t worry my child I will purify your soul," said Jake having a sneer on his face. Yes, this is the place where all woman belongs to, under my crotches with that said Jake gripped her buts and ripped of her pant. Signing the beginning of purification ceremony. Chapter- 8 At the naming ceremony of John The priest who was standing beside was stunned, tried to hide his face to protect himself from the shock wave not realizing it was harmless else covering his face won¡¯t even help a bit. However can¡¯t blame priest for his reaction because all the people present were doing same including John but due to his childish body he was late to react like others and the light from shock wave blinded him for a moment. The sound of a shock wave was like a little explosion, alerting the guard outside the church. They barged inside the church, ignoring the cry of priest to move out of church. Don¡¯t know why priest was persistent to kick them out? After all, they are the guard, meant to protect their master, isn¡¯t it? But it doesn¡¯t took long for John to know why. Two men jumped in front of the barging guards. John was only able to see their back while both were facing toward guards. One of them raised his foot in air, forming a strange runic patterns whirl around his feet in a flurry. Guard in front by now realised something was wrong and prepared his weapons for incoming attack but there expressions were telling a story in contrast to their action. It was an expression that was shouting they admit their defeat but it was too late for them to lament over it. The man with his raised feet finally stomped his feet on the floor and the next second ground beneath the guards rose, shoving the guards into mid air and, the other man who was standing idly took a stance as if punching someone in front of him, similar to first guy his fist was also covered with a strange whirling runic symbols. Finally he also launched his fist sending powerful surge of violent wind in direction of his fist¡ªwhich was pointing at guards. The pressure from wind was so powerful that about 20 men who were in air were instantly thrown out of the church door¡ªlicking the grass on the ground. It all happened in a blink of an eye. John was astonished, unable to take his eyes off from those two men. He had some vague idea of how they did it but wasn¡¯t sure if he was right. Those men jumped in air, landing onto a pedestal placed above the church door on both side of it. John was surprised because when he entered inside the church, he saw those two men above the door but thought they were some kind of statue hence ignoring them but, now he realised that they were real human standing there like a statue and acting only when there is need to protect the church. However this time mistakenly kicking the ass of guards though. The priest who was looking at the show finally decided to speak "We apologize for this show of brute force but please understand this is not a place for weapons everyone inside is safe nothing could harm them" John was asking a question to a priest in his mind ¡®what if someone walk in with a bomb? Do you think everyone will be safe then?¡¯You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story. Few high class nobles walked out of the church with disgruntled expression but most of them stayed. Some how John''s naming ceremony came to an end and now all the peoples were leaving church one by one. Many unexpected things happened today to him. First those energy ball exploded and then that name changing option and most important of all was the fight between the guards and two guys. Two man fighting 20 soldier, ending with a defeat of 20 soldier and that also in a blink of an eye. It was complete one side victory. It sparked great curiosity inside John and he decided to learn it when he becomes a bit older. 3 years had passed from the day John was summoned. So now John was 3 years old. His nanny Lara was now officially certified caretaker for John. As now John was able to move around freely, he sometimes takes a stroll around the mansion. At first he thought that mansion wasn''t as big as it looked but after taking only one round trip he was out of breath and also everyone looked bigger than him. It felt like they were giants and he was a dwarf, only when he looks at his sibling who are not that big he could feel good however, in last three years he had got used to his small sized body so he don''t feel odd as like before. His brother Jeff and sister Rina were now 8 and 12 year old. He had never interacted with them in last three years at most it was looking them moving around but they never came near him and he never went near to them sort of mutual understanding but that doesn¡¯t meant he liked it. After the incident with Jeff they both maintained a safe distance from him henceforth. Every time John tried to interact with them they tried to run away which made it difficult for him to interact with them especially with Jeff, He instinctively feared John but to John''s surprise, wound that was inflicted by him was completely healed. Later he realised it was done with the help of healer who used holy magic. They were very expensive though but for Saraman household it wasn''t a big deal. They could hire the best healer available in the empire. One day Rina invited her two friends at the mansion they were her school friends. They were all from high class nobles family. "Wow your mansion is big it cannot be compared to mine," one of her friend complimented. Rina was totally swayed by her comment. She tried to suppress her bubbling emotion. "Oh come on how could it be your father is a Duke of -" Before Rina could speak any her other friend interjected "Oh come on its nothing compared to my mansion it is filled with all the luxury you could imagine its so much that I had to sometime give away my jewellery to my servants but my case of old jewellery still doesn¡¯t get empty" Followed with Rina''s defence "Everyone has there own style of living you like to live in luxury and I like to live like a simple girl." John heard their bickering from another room. He was surprised that even after living in such a place she is not corrupted by the authority it provided but it wasn¡¯t true for her friend though. John strained his ear to hear more. "Shut up Amira none of us want to hear about your family wealth. It was my mistake to invite you at home" "no it was my mistake to visit such a lowly place," said Amira in slightly hyped manner. John was quite surprised. At such a young age having a sharp tongue that could slice a man into half. It¡¯s a talent in its own. However that young lad need some lesson on manner. A creepy smile surfaced on his face. Chapter- 9 John was taking a nap when lara hurriedly walked inside the room to wake John. She violently shook him, interrupting John''s sweet dreams. Due to violent shaking John thought something has happened otherwise Lara wouldn''t do something like this, so instead of bickering about it he forced waked himself. Walking out of the bed he saw Lara searching for something in his wardrobe and clothes flying like a cannon ball one after another on John''s face, greatly annoying him. "Hey Hey did you forgot I''m the master and you are a servant?" However, no response came from the other side so he decided to wash his face first, maybe by the time he returns her mind will be back from a stroll, but as he just turned, two hands coiled around his arm lifting him up in the air and before he could realize he was standing on his bed, facing the wall, greatly annoyed he turned around seeing Lara holding bunch of his clothes. Testing on him one by one to find the suitable clothes for some unknown reason. Finally, the clothes had been decided and while he was wearing them Lara was combing his hair. She even applied a bit makeup on his face. And Finally, after a whole 3 minutes of hard labor John was ready. "Now you are ready?" "Ready for what? circus? Where, I am the Joker" "oww you are looking very cute. Let''s hurry guests are waiting." "Wait what like this...I said wa-" Lara was already dragging--more like flying, him out of the room till they arrived at the door to hall. Finally, she placed John back on his feet, ignoring his glare. "Be respectful to your guest. Ok?" Her eyes were shouting ''if possible knowtow to your guest''. He was going to ask further but Lara already opened the door to the hall so he straightened his back, looking ahead.The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. "He''s one of the high priest of Ronait," whispered Lara. He looked at the man sitting on sofa wearing a blue and white colored robe, eyes closed, legs folded and arms spread across the sofa. More of a Hoodlum than a high priest. John greeted the high priest "Greeting high priest" while slightly bowing not knowtowing. The high priest opened his eyes, seeing a kid standing in front of him, bowing in courtesy, but for some reason the initial smile he had on his face vanished and replace with a frown. He signaled one of his servant to give the chest to John. John received the golden shining chest from him. Image of a treasure chest was appearing in his mind but to his surprise the chest was light, very light as if chest was empty. He placed it on table opening it and what he saw inside was... utter disappointment. Such a large chest was used to give just a ring. ''This world has quite a sense in hyping things.'' Thought John while lifting the ring. "Am I going to marry?" Asked John but maybe the high priest didn''t hear. He was just staring at his face. When he was sure that high priest-- more of a pervert, now isn''t going to open his mouth he started banging the table, waking high priest from his dazed state. From his left, John heard Lara shouting. "Don''t do it." Then turning his head toward high priest, she said "He is just a--" Before she could finish, High Priest thundered on her "Woman shut your mouth." Hers words sent Lara in a state of Panic. John furrowed his brows on high priest. Not understanding the reason for his anger on Lara. "There is no need to yell" said John. "If you will trust a woman she will definitely betray you at one point or other understand it as soon as possible" "I don''t need your advice on this matter" said John while glaring at him. In response High priest only smirked. Now John was having a vague idea of high priest''s personality. He was Hoodlum, pervert probably gay with some kind of weird fetish and he hates woman. John let it slide for once and asked politely. "What is this ring for?" "It''s a gift from the church" He said while rising from his seat. John also decide to not ask any further about it but one thing caught his attention. All the servant mostly young, both male and female were bowing to him even Lara was bowing, however she can''t be considered young. Relatively. She was even smiling as if happy from high priest yelling. ''I never knew She was a Masochist'' He tried wearing a ring later that day but as fast he wore it, even faster he took it out. Throwing the ring away.

Chapter- 10 John''s spine was tingling seeing the ring lying on the far corner of the room. He couldn''t believe that church would so blatantly try to control him. He yelled to call Lara. He kept shouting till he heard the sound of door opening. Before Lara could ask anything, John pointed at the ring. "Lara throw that ring away" John spoke. She turned her gaze toward the direction were John finger was pointing. She saw the ring given as a gift by the church lying there. She turned toward John once again. "John it''s a gift from the church don''t disrespect it like that" she reprimanded john. "But that so-called gift has a shady function" replied John. "It is bad to disrespect church John. Church is a symbol of...." John interjected "You don''t know what that ring can do. it has a function called mind slaver. It can make you obey the commands of an owner" Lara looked at John in disbelief "How can you say that. Mind slaver magic is used by only illegal slave dealer and you are accusing church for using it. I''m going to tell this to your mother now she will deal with you now" She came near thrown ring to pick It up while still speaking ''''and wear this ring else it will be an insult to the church" She extended her hand toward John but he even refused to touch it. Lara gripped his hand trying to forcefully get it on his finger. John struggled to free himself but it was no use so he snatched that ring from her and before she could realize John threw it toward the window However to throw it as soon as possible he was unable to aim in proper direction making a ring to strike at the wall bedside the window which changed it trajectory and now it was coming back to his direction. John gasped looking at the returning ring. He raised his hand to catch it again and retry but Lara was one step ahead of her. Before ring could come close to john''s tiny arm she caught it not giving john at least a chance to try. Seeing this John spoke while terrified and trying his best to free his hand from Lara''s grip "See it''s even cursed. it came back." But Lara was adamant on making him wear the ring and finally, she succeeded. Lara looked happy but John was petrified.

His 3-year-old mind was not ready to handlementally taxing situation hence, he passed out while feeling the breeze entering through the widow, cooling off his heated body. _______ After an unknow time John woke up seeing his mother sitting beside him while he was lying on the bed, caressing his hair. Valus and Lara were also present there. John was having a headache most probably from the mental stress because. His eyes were bit blurry but he still was able to see a status screen with something written on it.
Do you want to activate the self healing function of ring of the emperor?
The godess was the only one on who he had a bit of faith on and he was sure she has nothing to do with the church so he agreed and immediately, he was feeling good as if the pain was a mere dream he saw with his opened eyes. Mother asked him while caressing his Hair "What happened to my baby?" He told her mother what he had already told to Lara. At least she would believe his son but her mother also said the same thing that Lara said. There blinded faith was annoying him. "How could you Have so much faith on those bastard" ''pat'' Mother slapped her. "It is the only good left in this world and you are denouncing it too" How could she. she believes so much in them, are they really that good are those who wanted to make him slave were really that good. he doesn''t think so. When he first realized this world has a church he thought they would be different form his world but they aren''t. No matter which world it is they will always remain same. Using the faith of innocent Peoples. I won''t forgive them they will pay for it. While he was denouncing them in his mind her mother hugged him. Pulling John out of his thought.This warmth, this peace. This is what he never had never experienced before, something that he yearned for but couldn''t have because it wasn''t there. This was something he had to protect. ''I will make them pay.'' Chapter- 11 It was full moon night and its view from window was as always mesmerizing for Valus. It doesn''t mean he was some kind of romantic guy who writes poetry, neither it was anything like he had any happy memories related with the full moon. It''s just that it gives him a sense of security and hope and, it''s largely influenced by his mercenary career that he started at the age of 14 because of his family condition however, being a mercenary isn''t as easy as it may seem on surface. He has seen many, many comrades fall during a mission for various reasons. You think of a reason and you will find at least one guy who had died for that reason love, betrayal, greed, jealousy, few of the many reasons and, being able to survive for sixteen years in that kind of environment is a miracle in its own right and even bigger miracle is becoming a butler in a palace of Yonait but, this past has also given him many sleepless night and still giving. Being in a constant threat of being attacked by your own comrades has trained his body in a way that he can''t fall asleep easily so he uses this time to think about some random stuff that comes into his mind and are forgotten by morning as always but tonight was different he wasn''t thinking about any random things. It was about the accuse that young master, John made on church. Young master believes that the ring had mind slavery option but it is something that requires an expertise in mind magic who are very few in Yonait but, Valus knows a person who is expert in it and he has even visited their home. It was Jake, the high priest. All Yonait know he can control three elements and mind magic is one of those, which is also a reason of him being chosen as high priest at the age of twenty-one which is first in church history and no other high priest come close to it. And also, Valus himself don''t have any good image of church in his mind. According to him they are official bandits nothing more than that and if possible, he would like to get rid of them but they aren''t just any bandits. They are bandits who use innocent people as their shield and supported by the country itself in it. He had decided to get to the root of this problem starting with high priest Jake. He will hire a spy to spy on high priest and find out their dark secret that could hopefully help him uncover the true face of the church. Valus changes his clothes into something looking old and torn, and sneaked out of the mansion from the secret entrance that only few were aware of. He passed through a market which was as lively at night as was in day time mainly because of The daisy''s tower also called brothel by common peoples where even nobility''s, men as well as women come¡ªsecretly though. At the end of the market was a blind beggar. He walked toward the blind beggar and dropped one copper coin in the bowl and two copper coins in the beggar''s pocket and then again two coins he dropped in the bowl one by one and then again putted one copper coin in his pocket. The beggar checked the coin and after checking he walked in a certain direction. Valus followed him till he stopped at certain place devoid of any living souls. From there beggar went back to where he came from. Two big burly men came out of the shadow one holding a cloth other different kind of weapons. Both men stood there without moving an inch from their place. Valus took a needle out of the pocket of a man holding a black cloth wrapped it in needle and place it in the pocket of other man. The two menn signaled and other man came out of the shadow.Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon. That man asked Valus to follow him taking valus to a door, camouflaged by bushes and sand. Inside there were many men and few women present. That man once again asked Valus to follow him, taking him to a certain room. He gestured Valus to go inside. Inside an old man was sitting when he saw Valus his eyes lit up. "Vally my friend you are back" "No. I am here for a business" Old man looked depressed when he heard this but Valus was certain it was nothing more than a fa?ade. "I thought we could have a good chat like in old days" "I prefer not." "Oh man your job has really made you with stiff," then with a grin "Say what why don''t we do something like before again" Valus looked at his grinning face with contempt who despite being old was full of energy and deviousness. The old man sighed "Allright tell us how can we help you" Valus didn''t wanted to be there anymore so he also get to the point "I need to spy on high priest of this region" Old man frowned "You mean Jake?" "is there anyone else?" The man laughed " no no its just you are the first to request us spying on someone from church" "Will you take it or not?" "Of course I will" said the man. After finalizing the money to be given and giving some important instruction on what the spy needs to find he left that place. Valus was once again at the mansion looking at the full moon, waiting for sleep to come. Chapter- 12 The Past few days had made John realized that he needs to be cautious of the world to stop himself from making the same mistake he made on Earth. This time he needs to make himself capable enough so nobody could trifle with him andtorealize this dream he is learning about his capabilities that he was ignoring for last three years. He checked his status and looked at all the skills he has.

They were few, almost none. He asked Lara who was sitting on a chair beside him about the skill. She told that the skills are basicallyaccumulationof experience and knowledge. "When you learn something new and after you become good at it then it is shown on your skill tab as a skill and the better you become at that thing the more will be the level of that particular skill. I know a blacksmith who has 100 level in blacksmith and it''s only an average level. The palace blacksmith most probable have skill level of around 350" John heard what Lara said and then looked at his status making him sigh like an old man. ''It seems there is long way to go'' After getting over the depression of havinglowlevel. He changed his attention to the item tab that had two items in it. One was the ring of the emperor and the other wasblessedring that he kept with him so he never forgets what he has to do in future. For now, he focused on the ring of the emperor resulting in a newpop upover his eyes with the title "Ring of the Emperor"
Name: Ring of the Emperor
Function: It contains Skill related to living
Skills: Metallic body,Doppelganger,Enhanced body,Enhanced mind,Phase change,Shapeshifter, Heal
He read all the functions of the ring ranging frommetallicbody to healing. After looking at the healing function he was sure that this skill was the one which made his headache due to mental pressure disappear instantly. If this world has such aneffect thanthere must be no problem ifanyaccident ever occurs. He asked Lara about it which totally threw his hypothesis out of the window. "Healing can only be performed by thepeopleswho are blessed by the goddess of life, Afra. If any child is found with the ability to heal he is taken in by the church and trained in healing magic but healing is magic is expensive so it is out of the common peoplereach. Only rich people and nobles are able to afford it." And what are the highest level you can reach in healingmagic. Lara thought for a bit "Actually healing magic is a big deal so and all the healers are in the care of Church so nobodyknowwhat''s the highest level of healing magic or level of any current healer and by the way why are you asking this and who told you about the healing magic?" "My status shows that I have a healing magic" Lara laughed when he heard this "Hahaha you really have very good hyper imagination little devil. First mind slaver and now healing magic" Seeing Lara laughing he understood it''s no use to convince her so he went back to analyzing his skill. Few the skills were grayed out most probably meaning he cannot use it so only a small portion of skillwereavailable. He looked at all theskillthat were available and the first skill that piqued his interest was metallic body skill. He opened its description.
Description: converts the skin into metal.
This skill was really interesting for John. If it really worked as it is saying than John can become invincible. Nothing could pierce his body. Excited John activated the skill. Strangely John felt nothing it was same as before. He moved around in the room, jumped up and down but it was all same.A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. "It looks someone is inplayfulmood," said Lara in a cheerful voice. John looked at her feeling frustrated because of the useless skill. "I''m learning to use my skill" Lara said in aworrytone "You are just athree year oldchild act according to child of your age" "What can I do If I''m smarter than the child of my age," said John in a slightly frustrated tone. Lara chuckled when she heard John. She came near John picking him up in his arms but for somereasonJohn was heavier than other days making it difficult Lara to hold him in his arms. "Little devil why are you suddenly so heavy?" "That''s why mom always says you to eat breakfast every day but you never listen to her always dieting as if you are some young girl. You are 29, focus on your kids" John''s word shattered her fragile heart "Little devil speak carefully else you will never get a girlfriend" "Who said I want a girlfriend I''m happy alone." Lara placed John back on the floor and she again went back to sit on her chair while looking depressed. John felt bad for making her unhappy so he decided to show his one skill that he was sure will work. "Lara do you want to see my skill?" "No John I''m not feelinggood" said Lara indepressedtone. "Just look at it once you will definitely like it." Lara sighed and nodded. As soon as Lara nodded John brought his hand forward so Lara could see them clearly and then he activated his claw skill. It worked as he expected. Lara was shocked and at same time mesmerized by it "Where did you learn it" "I never learned it. I just had it." Lara was going to touch those glowing claws so John hurriedly backed up. He didn''twantedanother one to getinjureby this cool looking light. "You can''t touch them they are dangerous" Lara pouted "How so?" To show they were dangerous John asked her to bring a piece of wood so Lara went out of the room to search for a piece of wood. She was taking very long to find a piece of wood. John was feeling sleepy while waiting for her so hehopedon his bed and fell asleep. When Lara came back with a piece of fine wood block. She sawjohnwas asleep but his glowing claws were still activated. she tried to touch those claws but seeing few tear marks on bed sheet she hesitated to touch them so she gave up on touching directly with her and used the wood block to touch it. Thewood blockslides through the claw as if nothing happened but as she was going to touch them with her hand she heard the voice of wooden block falling on the ground. She looked at the wooden block on the floorthenon the wooden block in his hand which was now half of its original size. She looked at the glowing claws with fear on her face. She was feeling grateful that she didn''t touch them else she would definitely have onefinger lesshence forth. After getting over the fear of the claw an idea came in her mind and she started doing something with the claw and the piece of wood. After an unknown time when John woke up he saw his claws were still on so he hurriedly deactivated them then he looked around him.Firsthe saw bed full of tear marks and second Lara was lyingbelowthe bed. John freaked out seeing Lara below his bed. He thought he injured Lara so He quickly jumped out of the bed, landing in front of Lara. "Larawakeup," said John while violently shaking her up. "What happened John?" Asked Lara in sleepy voice while yawning. "Are you all right?" Lara madepuzzledface not understanding why John was out of the blue asking her whether she is all right. "Yeah I am but why are you asking John?" After taking a sigh of relief John told her that he forgot to deactivate his claw so he thought something might have happened to her. When Lara heard it, she smiled and told him she was all right and showed him to two small statues out of which one was similar to him. He asked her how she made it. "I made it with the help of your claw. They can come quite handy for a sculptor" "They look great is that one me," John asked pointing his finger at one of thestatue. "Yes this one is you and this one is my daughter." "You are a great sculptor" "hehewellmy father was a sculptor so I know a bit about it." Told Lara while feeling a bit embarrassed from John''s compliment. She never showed her art to anyone fearing they will make fun of her sculptors. In midst of thisJohntummy started grumbling so Lara went tokitchento bring food for John. Lara came back with food but mom was also with her. "how''s my baby doing," asked mom to John. "I''mgoodmom," replied John. As it wasn''t lunch time so servant hadn''tprepareanything so Lara brought some fruits with her. The fruits were different from John''s world butstillthey were good. John ate few fruits after which mom told him that tomorrow they will be visiting a friend''s house. "Can''t you stay at home for once always going one place or other" "Haha When you have nothing to do then this is the only thing you can do" With that said her mom once again leaves to read poetry as always. Chapter- 13 A carriage moving at the speed of a ruuning man and inside it was a woman and a small boy. The Woman was sitting calmly while looking outside at the vast fields of wheat covering her whole view. The light brown color of the crops that could be seen until the end of horizon and further of it mountains, partially visible due to the fog that looked tiny from within the carriage. In contrast to the woman was the small boy sitting to her right wearing a frown unsuitable for his age and changing his posture in every few moment while gritting his teeth and every while and then lifting his body by pressing the seat but it was not for fun, his grim face and wobbling hand that were on verge to lose their strength. Finally, his hand lost all its strength resulting in john falling with ¡®thump¡¯ sound on the seat. ¡°Ouch¡± John yelped as he hurriedly stood up from his seat holding his butt with each respective hand and rubbing them to soothe out the pain and torment caused by the carriage seat. Beautifully covered with the most precious leather but not a single cushion inside it. Calling people to sit over them so they could inflict severe pain on their butts. He looked at his mother. She was looking at him, amused with the cute act his son making. She placed him on her lap. It was still uncomfortable but better than sitting on the wooden seat. His mother poked his both cheek ¡°Wanna see something interesting¡±. He wanted to say no but she was still poking his cheek unabling to shake his head. Clear sign of not taking no for an answer. He helplessly nodded his head. She stopped poking his cheek ¡°Good boy¡± she said, placing her one hand on the place where John was sitting. She did something that was uncomprehnsible for John. Her hand glowed and the seat which was made of wooden was depressed inside and it was done so easily as if it wasn¡¯t a wooden seat but a nice cushiony seat. John jumped up from her lap, intently looking at the depressed seat while ignoring lingering butt pain. He himself touched the seat to check if it was real or not and to John¡¯s surprise it was real. It felt like a cushion. His mom lifted her hand and with that seat also turned to its original state. Hard and ruthless. John didn¡¯t give up he pressed the seat with all his strength to do the same as his mom did but nothing happened. It was again same old hard seat. He looked at her mother, frustrated on being unable to do what his mother did and also unable to understand how she did it. His faced formed into a big frown and in slightly hyped up tone he asked ¡°How did you did it mom?¡± Her mom in reply covered her mouth trying to hide her smile which made John even more impatient ¡°Tell me Please.¡± His mother once again placed him on her lap and told him ¡°You¡¯ll learn it in magic school so don¡¯t worry about it¡±. ¡°No I want to Know now¡± ¡°But it requires practice. You can¡¯t learn it by just knowing how to do it¡± ¡°I want to know¡± ¡°How about I teach you when we get back at home¡± ¡°All right¡± He wanted it now though but it¡¯s still within reach so no problem. At last they reached at his mom¡¯s friend house. A servant opened the door which was unnecessary and they went in. Inside was painted blue with slight white running horizontally along the wall and the statue. Some big, some small all over the place and one strangely odd looking statued on middle on which a ladt was working on. She turned to look toward John and his mom. ¡°Denata you came¡± Her eyes showing Joy. She ran toward his mother hugging her. ¡°Alarice it¡¯s good to see you¡± said Denata while trying her best to get her off but she wasn¡¯t going to get off any soon. For next few seconds she hugged Denata until she was satisfied and after that she changed her target to John. Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators! ¡°Ooh who¡¯s this little guy¡± said Alarice as she lifted him up and hugged him, suffocating John in the process. John tried to free himself from her grip but her grip was surprisly strong or it was just he was surprisingly weak. His face was getting pale and he was loosing his strength. ¡°Your grip is too tight Alarice place him down¡± said Denata hurriedly before it gets worse. She immediately placed the child back on the floor when she saw John face. Alarice looked at Denata and place her right hand on her mouth ¡°soorry¡± said Alarice stretching the word for two seconds while brows raised and eyes little squinted. ¡°So how are you¡± Alarice changed topic to save herself from further problem and it worked as Denata continued with the conversation which made her heave a sigh of relief and just to be safe he stood between john and Denata so she don¡¯t remember about it by seeing John pale face. John was lying on floor with his hand and knees as support and taking a deep breath. He saw high strength lady stood in front of her with his back facing toward him. ¡®does she want a kick on a butt¡¯ he seriously gave a thought to it but in the end voted against it. What if she again tries to hug him. He would be dead. John rose on his feet and sat on the sofa nearby waiting for their conversation to end. Alarice and Denata talk had just begun and it won¡¯t anytime near. It took fifteen minutes for John to realize this and when he realized he felt his blood boiling ¡®Why am I here¡¯ he looked at her mother hinting her to notice him but she was engrossed in the conversation with her completely forgetting about him. He looked around the room and notice a garden like place so he decided to go there. He looked at his mom one last time and went out. He went into the garden at back of the house which was full of different color flowers. Different in shape and sizes. He looked at those, quite impressed with the view it was. He went near to one of the plant with a flower white at outside and pink inside. John stretched his hand to pluck it but the voice of a lady from behind stopped him ¡°Stop¡±. John surprised turned toward the source, accidentally plucking the flower he was firmly gripping. The lady glared at him when she saw the plucked flower in her hand. She strode toward John and snatched the flower from his hand which was a very bold move for a servant considering John¡¯s family background in the present world. John was looking at her when she snatched the flower from his hand. He wasn¡¯t into the hierarchical system so for him it was just doing something bad for someone else property ¡°I¡¯m sorry mam. It wasn¡¯t intent¡­.¡± ¡°Just get out of here¡± ¡®what¡¯ He frowned deeply on being cutted of while apologizing. He once again looked at the lady face. This time to understand the reason of her hate toward him. He stared at her face which made her even more irritated. Her frown, gritting teeth and rapid breathing was hinting on her trying to control her rage. ¡°Why are you so angry¡± asked John however she didn¡¯t reply. She just gritting her teeth with her fist clenched. She reluctantly left after few seconds her eyes were red due to anger. She wanted to do more but she wasn¡¯t, maybe because he belongs to general family. Her walking style was odd. When she moved forward with her right leg it was normal as all people but when she moved with the left leg she would make a quick step as if trying to put less stress on left leg. John didn¡¯t realized it before when she came near to him that she has some problem with her legs but that wasn¡¯t the most important problem. The most important problem was the reason of her anger toward John for just plucking a flower. ¡°That woman is crazy just like the owner¡± said John as he walked back to where his mom was. As soon as he arrived inside her mom held his hand lifting him up ¡°John we are going out for shopping¡± his mom said with a smile. He was given no choice and was dragged by his mother followed by Alarice. Chapter- 14 He was dragged out of the house by his mother and was taken to a nearby market together withAlarice. The market was about5 minutewalking distance away however it doesn¡¯t really matter for John though. He was sitting onAlarice¡¯sshoulder.Alaricetook John fromDenataand placed him on his shoulder. John felt embarrassed as the passerby looked toward them. They were laughing and he was sure it was on the stupidityofAlarice.They stopped in front of a3 floorbuilding. It looked similar to a shop in his previous world. On front they had glass walls with different kind of clothing and jewelry in showcase on the others side so the ladies passing by would be tempted to buy them. His mom walked in and after thatAlaricewalked in. ¡®Bam''¡¯Oww¡¯John head banged on the wall above the door. Door was short for combined height of John andAlaricealso John was looking somewhere so he didn¡¯trealizedthere was a wall ahead of it. John held his forehead. It was painful. He could feel the pain all over his head.Alaricetook him down from her shoulder. She looked at John and then towardDenata. She hadn¡¯t realized anything yet. She just walking toward the counter. She heaved a sigh of relief and looked back at John. ¡°Don¡¯t cry little John. I¡¯ll buy you a candy later if you won¡¯t cry¡± ¡°Don dare to bribe me insensitive woman¡± said John while pressing his head with both hand at the place it collided with wall. It was second time she hurt him and both time it brought severe pain. Her mother turned to look at his yelling son. She came near to him. She asked her "what happened? Why are you holding your head?" "your friend banged my head on wall" "No! It was an accident" she immediately said as soon as John accused her. His mom asked him what happened and he honestly told her how his head was banged on wall by her. Then she askedAlariceand she also told the same incident but blaming it on John to not lower his head while entering. "you are the one who was carrying me so you should have lowered yourself. I''m just a3 yearoldchild. Do you think I would be smart enough to know what to do." "Yesyou are smart so you should have lowered your head when you saw wall ahead of you" said his mom while lifting him up in his arm. "Mymywhat do we have here" an old lady entered inshop from one of the room inside the shop. She was old, most probably in her 70s. She was walking toward them with the help of a walking stick which was making a ''thud'' sound every time she moved a step forward. "OhAlaricewhat happened here." She askedAlarice. "Madamvalary." BowedAlarice"Nothing happened just a bit problem with my friend''s child," saidAlaricewhile gesturing with her hand towardDeanta.Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. She looked at them and asked about what happened. "Nothing madamValary. He just banged his head on wall so he is quite angry about it" Valarylooked at John. Scanning him from head to toe. She brought her face near to John. "is he that summoned hero?" "Yes," repliedDenata. Valarysmiled and patted John head as she asked John what happened to him. John understood she was trying to be friendly but heisn''t throwing any childish tantrum that he need to be appeased. It wasa genuine anger. He was going to say this to her but an arrow launched by someone from a midst of a crowd pierced John''s back. The momentum of an arrow was large enough to pierce through his back and come partially out of his chest. He coughed a mouthful of blood. AlariceandDenatawereconfusedat what happened but it didn''t take long for them to realize someone attacked John. They both went into a state of panic. Alarice yelled, "Guards find theassassin". Denataplaced him on the floor while the old lady ran back to her office shouting something while running. John tried to look toward the direction from where the arrow came but the pain restricted him from doing that. The arrow wascoming out of his chest andblood was oozing out from both back and the chest like a small fountain. Pain was becoming unbearable with every passing moment and his head started feeling dizzy.
Do you want to activate the healing option?(yes/No)
''yes'' said John in his mind.
For healing effect to work foreign object need to be taken out of the body.
He read the next notification with his blurred eye. It took him long time to read just one sentence assometimebloodwould come out of hismouth. He touched the arrow. It made a spine chilling sensation course all over his body. How would he take the arrow out if event touching it is thispainful.He tried once again, this time trying to control the pain but her mother who was watching him while crying stopped his hand from touching the arrow.
