In the slums where houses were rotting, Avion was as patient as a sage. He is a man who lives solitarily his whole life with nothing to do but read books. How can he not have patience? Especially when he had no idea where he will go.
It was a good thing that he already ate from the party earlier. He had yet to worry about getting hungry. Although it was so easy to steal, Avion felt nervous just thinking about it. Actually, now that he got control over his body's ti, he can have infinite energy.
As he walked like a sloth, in front of him, three people ca out of the shadows without any warning.
Avion stopped, not that there was much different from his speed earlier. He didn't know the dangers that were about to approach in this kind of situation. The ignorant are the most careless and carefree at the sa ti, not feeling any fear.
The three n stared at him and Avion stared at them.
"..."
Eyes were directed to each other. Nobody spoke a word nor any part of their body moved. Even Avion thought that he might've stopped ti but the world still retains its color.
The young "noble" boy was staring at the three n in silence. However, ti passed and Avion thought that these people don't need anything from him. He didn't know how to respond to this situation so he began to walk.
It was still slow as his head was depressingly staring into the void with his head down.
However, he was stopped.
"Wait!"
Avion turned around but saw nothing. He frowned since he was sure he heard sothing but when he turned back in front of him, "Ah...!" he was slightly surprised to find the three n still in front of him, just closer.
It seed that he was walking so slow, he had yet to pass them.
Back in his original world, Avion would take a stroll and look at nature. He had so few choices on what to do in his past daily life and taking a stroll was one of them.
Admiring nature, Avion would be placed into deep thoughts and would beco philosophical in his head;
'Why...' he asked as he looked around, 'Why am I...' he then began to frown, "Why am I here again?" was the first question that he asked himself before realizing that he was lost in the woods.
However, he didn't worry, he had infinite ti to trace back his path. There was nothing to rush so it took him almost a month trying to get back to his lone ho.
That is how patient he is that it was natural that other people will be annoyed by him.
"What?" he indifferently asked, oblivious to their intentions which should be obvious at first glance.
"Ehem!" the man in the middle with a thick beard cleared his throat before saying, "Get him..!" he pointed.
"Who?" the little fatty, Fobo asked.
"Are you retard, him, the kid." Naron imdiately rebutted hearing this. He was greatly hesitant earlier but now that he finally made up his mind these guys will ruin it for him.
"No, who will get him?" the little fatty asked again.
"You should really be clear on your instructions and clearly explain the steps of your intention so that we will know how to properly execute it," Temon said while still adjusting his glasses.
Naron then sighed, "We... we will get him. The three of us!"
"Ohh... I thought only us two or just ." Fobo nodded as he looked at Avion. He was not as fat as Prince Julio but due to his height, he seed fatter. He was the first one to walk forward.
The streets in the slums were empty except for the three of them. The people there were already sleeping in their houses. It was already midnight. But even at an early ti, they would rest.
The majority of them were malnourished and were always lacking energy, making them tired early. Also, the true criminals will actually go to the commoners' neighborhood since if they are all poor, what will they get if they steal from one another? The victim would even wish that they have enough money to be a target of stealing.
"Wait," before Fobo takes Avion who was still curious about what they were doing as if a child not knowing that he was already in front of trouble, he asked, "We just wanted to ask if you if you are an Elentalist or not." his tone beca anable.
Fobo was actually the smart one of the three. Temon didn't know why he asked that. Realizing this just now, Naron stopped Temon from interfering.
Ignoring the fact that Naron just explained their plans, they thought they would play safe. Fobo is the smartest among them three and only among them three. It doesn't really an that he was smart.
This situation was too good to be true. In reality, the three of them just wanted to explore the city at night where there are fewer people. However, they stumbled upon Avion and that was when they've made up their mind to do a cri.
Fobo's question was fatal. At first, it seed like they were just asking if the young "noble" was an Elentalist then they will just excuse themselves. Even just a Rank Eeh which was not even considered an Elentalist was stronger than them so if they encounter a true Elentalist, they are dood if they were to offend him.
However, once they know that this young noble is as weak as them, they will take this chance. If only they have enough money to buy a simple dagger, they could've surprised him and take him away.
"No..." Avion shook his head, "But I can control ti."
"Take him away!"
The three of them were fast as they took Avion and was grateful that he was light as they took him into the shadows.
Avion didn't know what was happening, "Eh?" he blinked a few tis, "Where are you taking ?"
"Good question." Temon nervously smiled as he was holding Avion's feet while Fobo and Naron were holding Avion's every arm, "No, seriously, that's a good question, where will we take him?"
"Just take him to the house first," Naron said.
"Okay."
"Why are you taking there?" Avion frowned.
"We... we want to show you our house!" Fobo nervously said.
"Oh..." Avion raised his brows as he thought, 'So there are good people. I shouldn't go back first. I still have a history to watch.'
The three n carrying Avion began to frown. They felt sothing was wrong.
Is it really this easy? They at least expected the young noble to shout and scream which they will resort to force.
This was the first ti they were doing this. They were so sure that they made tons of mistakes but they are successful?
Looking at their victim... he seed oddly relaxed as if he enjoyed the "ride"
