Zen began to run as fast as his legs could carry him . He could hear the screams of his mother and also he was aware that some people were following him and threatening him to stop running . He ignored it all and just ran . He was then surrounded by the people.
"You're stubborn, aren't you ? And what's with the precious ring in your hand huh? Boys let's teach him the lesson of being stubborn and take that ring with us . I'm sure we will get paid for that thing." one of them said.
"SHUT UP ! you murderers I'm not gonna give this ring to you" he said trembling.
"Oh !You sure have guts to pick a fight with the nobles . Let me teach you a lesson"Having said that,he raised his swords to kill Zen . To protect himself Zen covered his head with his hands . He then discovered that he was protected by a barrier of light magic . The nobles were surprised to discover the strange ability Zen possessed .Zen himself was surprised .
After few minutes of astonishment , the barrier began to disappear . "OH I didn't know that a mere village boy like you possesses light magic which is so rare it makes me want to kill you more " Zen was now helpless and hopeless he then waited for his death as there was nothing he could do .
The noble had raised his sword to kill him . To his surprise a person was standing in front of him.
"oi oi! do you really have no shame ! A group of nobles killing a powerless village boy in the middle of night?"He said leaving everyone surprised!!!

"You're welcome ! By the way what are you doing here in this hour ? Why were those nobles trying to kill you" He said .
With tears in his eyes , He explained how brutally his family was killed and how he escaped from those nobles .The child then said" I'm gonna be stronger than anyone else and I will not fail to protect what's dear to me "
