CHAPTER 10:

"Stupid"

"Idiots"

"Cynthia is my new favourite"

"What a low life"

"Cassian you are nothing and will always be nothing"

The Mysterious adventurer wakes up with sweat all over his face and forehead, breathing heavenly as the trauma of his childhood to hunt his dream. It was the same nightmare where he relives his experience with his parent, siblings and family. Cassian begins to think, all that feeling of pain and disorder he keeps within him will eventually destroy him from the inside out and he knew it.

The carriage came to a halt and Cassian felt it as well, but he didn't say anything. He only assumed they've reached thier destination, he opens the carriage door and gets down from it. As he got down the old man who was so kind enough to help him out came towards him.

"Oh your awake, hope i didn't disturb you" He say's,

"no not at all" Cassian replies and bows his head,

"Thank you" He say's, and brings out a small pouch filled with silver coins,

"Here" He say's.

The Old man was shocked seeing the amount in the pouch, looks at Cassian and shakes his head,

"No i can't accept this" Said the old man,

"It's okay, you are a good man. you didn't know me but your first instinct when you saw me was to help me and you gave me a ride, you deserve much more than this" Cassian say's.

The old man was reluctant at first but seeing the youngster before him won't just take no for an answer, he collected it from Cassian.

"Thank you once again" Cassian say's and turns to leave.

He stops looking at his surrounding, It was a normal busy morning in Berlin capital. People walking to their destination, little kids playing around in the streets, carriages of different colour and design passing the road, either carrying goods or people and surprisingly magic knights. They on 2 lines marching and making thier way towards the capital gates,

"That seems suspicious"

He watches as knights marched and how people fearfully cleared the road for them to pass. Cassian never really understood the unusual fear people have for magic knights. Not far from him Cassian sites a knight behind the others with a scroll in his hand, looking everyone faces he passes.

"Thier looking for someone" He say's,

"Hmm, whose on thier wanted list, I bet if i get the guy there'll be money involved" Cassian said, his eyes glows and his sight zooms closer to the scroll in the knights hands. Cassian A.K.A the Mystic Mage possessed a nit trick which allows him to see through, thin objects like paper, walls and card and see the exact thing inscribed on the paper, he calls it

"Shadow sight"

Shadow Sight enabled him to see the inscription on the scroll from his point of view. He was shocked to see a perfect drawing of his face like a picture on the scroll with a strange inscription next to it.

He reads,
"EGAM CITSYM"

He thinks for a moment,

"Mystic mage, on now i get it"
He smiles but was confused, firstly how was someone able to get a perfect sketching of him. His always moving so that's not supposed to be possible, secondly, what could he have possibly done that made him wanted by the kingdom of berlin.

"I just got here" He said,

"I have to lay low" he said.

He turns around to see the old man struggling to carry the boxes of potions and herbs from the carriage. Compelled by the kindness in him, he turns and walks back to the Old man.

"Let me help with that" He say's.

Author note:
Kindness of his heart? can we really call it that.
