Standing outside the gates. Eve was set on asking information inside this Kingdom.
But as soon as she was inside, she was amazed to see so many people inside it. She soon started asking some information.
An hour later, she sat by the side of the street, she sighed. She failed on asking information, but she learned that zol was the name of their money. And there was tons of slave traders camping here.
"What do I do? "
Just as she was starting to give up, she saw the blue robed man walking. It was only a glimpse but she knew it was that man.
Eve stood up and followed the man. In a back alley she saw the blue robed man along with five brawn men.
She peeked at them for half an hour and was shock to see the blue robed man was receiving money. The next moment the five men left with satisfied faces.
What did they talked about?
As soon as the five men left, the blue robed man clutched the money in his hand with a solemn look, and then he left.
Eve had followed him out of the alley. As soon as they were on the streets again, Eve decided to take action.
She hurriedly step closer towards the man and grabbed the helm of his sleeves.
The blue robed man almost tripped, he turned around to see the girl. "You again? "
But before he could even shake her off, Eve suddenly took a deep breath and shouted. "Ahh! Help me! A slave trader! Someone! Anyone! "
The blue robed man was in shock when he heard her shout, but he soon regain his senses when he saw the people that was around them began to look at him suspiciously.
The man quickly covered Eve's mouth, and said. "Haha, this girl just loves to joke. "
After he said this, the man quickly carried Eve far away.
In a place where there were no people the blue robed man dropped Eve on the ground.
"Ahh! "
Eve shriek as her but was slammed to the ground.
"What was that for?! You crazy girl!"
The man scolded Eve furiously, but he soon stopped when he saw that Eve wasn't making any sound.
The man curiously crouched down and took a peek at Eve's face. His eyes soon widened when he saw her face.
"You. Why the hell are you crying?"
Eve was still looking down. Tears rolled fast down her face as she held back her voice from bawling.
"I, hic. I want to go home, hic. But I don't know how, hic. I, I."
Because of her emotional state every word that came out of Eve's mouth was followed by a hiccup.
Seeing Eve crying so miserably, he sighed. "Argh! Fine, I'll help you get home. "
"Heh? "
Eve lifted her head and looked at the blue robed man who was crouching in front of her. With her tear stained eyes she said. "But I don't have any money. "
"You say that, but what your doing is extremely unfair. " the blue robed man mumbled.
"Huh? "
The blue robed man stared at her and began scratching his head, looking very annoyed. "I like you're guts so I'll help you! And besides a man don't take back what he has already said. "
After saying that, the man helped Eve to stand up.
"The names Ryu. "
"Eve."
After the introduction. Ryu began to ask Eve some questions."So, tell me. Which country are you from? You never know it might be close. "
Eve shooked her head and said. "I don't belong here."
"Ah, yeah. I know. That's why I'm asking. "
Ryu was quite annoyed. He thought that Eve was playing jokes on him.
Eve naturally knew what he meant, and how annoying she must look like.
She immediately shook her head and hands. "No, I mean literally. I don't belong here. On this world. "
After Eve said that, the place soon became quiet. Moments later a laugh was heard.
Ryu was laughing like a maniac, as he slapped the back of Eve. "Hahahaha! That's a good joke. " Ryu's face soon became solemn. "But I'm not in the mood for a joke. So, if your doing this to make fun of me. I'm going to leave."
Eve's expression soon changed, as she furiously bellowed at him. "Why would I joke around!"
"Okay, okay. Calm down."
Ryu cupped his chin, then he turned to Eve and said. "If that's the case. Then I can't help you. "
When Eve heard that, it felt like her world had crumbled apart.
"But you said you'll help me! "
"Well yeah. But what you said right now, do you really think that a normal person like me can help you with supernatural cases like this?"
Eve hanged her head down. Tears were soon began forming on her eyes.
"I can't. But maybe someone can."
Ryu hurriedly grabbed Eve's hand and went back to the streets again.
"Hey, where are we going?"
"To ask some people some information."
"But. I've already tried that. And it didn't work. "
Ryu stopped walking. Since he did that without any warning Eve had bumped her face on his back.
"Why'd you stop all of a sudden?"
Eve was rubbing her red nose, when suddenly she was pulled really hard by the hand.
Ryu forcefully pulled Eve on the crowd quickly when he saw something coming from afar.
Soon the streets were soon cleared out and all of the crowd had gathered on the side, as if they were waiting for something to come.
Eve pulled away her hand and began rubbing her wrist. She turned towards Ryu and asked. "What's happening? Why are all the people gathering on the sides? "
Ryu didn't answered. He narrowed his eyes as he stared at the streets.
Seeing as Ryu was busy looking at the streets, Eve became curious and also peered. But since there were so many people she couldn't see a thing.
Time passed by as carriage slowly entered the streets. Ryu began to reach out for Eve's hands as his eyes was locked on the man that was inside the carriage.
But no matter how he kept reaching, all he could grab was air. He immediately turned towards his side, and no longer saw Eve.
