”shi+t, why do I have to struggle through the snowstor?” Snaketooth bitterly spat on the ground, ”I don't give a damn what the lords will do”
”Put your collar up,” he said to Joe, a s next to hiue”
”He shouldn't have followed us out,” Sunflower said, frowning ”Is it really necessary to send all the four of us just to get some information? Kanas must have it in for us”
”Save it, please Even if he does, what can we do?” Tigerclaw, a strapping boy, said with disapproval ”He's our source for food” Though he sounded unconcerned, he still quickened his pace to walk in front of the other three kids From then on, Snaketooth felt that the cold as di considerably
”Th-thanks,” Joe whispered

Rats had social ranks too Kings were at the top and tails at the bottom Different ranks had different places to stay As for Kanas, he was neither a king nor a tail He was the ruler of the Endless Lane in the Western Zone of the outer city If he , he should be a waist or a belly No matter what he was, Snaketooth and his friends had to respectfully call him boss whenever they met him
There were six rulers like hi of the Western Zone, still remained unknown to Snaketooth
Kanas had several teams of Rats and they were one of them The only way to win er competency than the other teams Unfortunately, as street kids in the lane, they were obviously at a disadvantage in both nuerclaas different一it was incredible for him, who ate only half a piece of brown bread every day, to be so well-built
The reason the brown-haired girl, Sunflower, thought that Kanas was ai at them was because of their prior mishap They didn't take the witch that appeared in the lane to Kanas because Snaketooth wanted to use her ability toafter they went out, they unexpectedlyshot from the Honeysuckle Fah ry with theiven the witch to hi her to the noble or the church

”Snaketooth is, is right” Joe agreed, still shi+vering ”If he re-really thought we old royals, he would have thrown us into the Redwater River”
”Kanas could only give the witch to the king of the Western Zone He also needs to protect hiic power and doesn't have any God's Stones of Retaliation” Snaketooth continued, ”He's just disgusted with us”
”Stop saying 'selling' She's Paper and one of us!” Sunflower gave Snaketooth a painful pinch ”You talk about her like she's cargo!” She suddenly paused a little here and asked, ”Hey, did you sell her back then?”
”No, I didn't!” He exclaimed ”I tried my best to save her, but that person is the lord of the city”
”Is she alright in Border Town?” Tigerclaw sighed
”How can she be alright?” Sunflower snorted ”What's the difference between being played by the prince and being played by the other noblemen?”
”Really you say that now, but when you actually see the noble's lifestyle, you'll desperately want to be played by them,” Snaketooth said and twitched his lips
