Chapter 3 (1/2)

I rushed to a place where people were gathered.

A group of about 5 or 6 people, including a dirty-man who was holding a child while pointing a small knife.

Also there are three people, a woman and men who were confronted them.

Th-this is. . . it’s seems the child was kidnaped. . . no, nono I can’t just jump to conclusions.  Maybe the Dirty-man’s group were good guys here---

[Whys there a brat in this kind of place? Well whatever, we also can sell him together with this child]

---I don’t think so. Yup, they are the bad guys.

However, you know what. . . I wasn't scared at all.

When on the mountain I felt a little bit of danger from the monsters there, but recently I can’t feel anything. . .

Hmmm, I think they will manage it somehow.

Those guys are not a big deal. Such small fries, even I have a little confidence that I could handle it by myself. . .  of course it was impossible for me until just recently. But still I can’t let my guard down. Although I survived in the mountain, I’m still an ordinary man. I have to properly look at the opponent, and be ready to move anytime---

[Heeh what’s wrong brat, are you too scared to move? Hey!! Someone go catch that brat!!]

After the Dirty-man gave a command, from his group, a man full of scars came to approach me. Usually this kind of opponent is strong. . . right? Or not? I mean, maybe he is full of scars because he's weak and gets injured a lot. It must be hard, but I can not feel sorry for him because he is a bad guy.

While the Scarred-man approached, the group of men and women didn’t spare a single glance at me. Apparently they are not interested and were just staring at the child who was caught.

Eh? Are they ignorong me? It’s not like that, right? They must be just too focused with the child, right?

I will stay here okay~!! Let’s shake hands later. . .

Hmm, from the three people I think the woman in front is the most approachable.

Let’s stop thinking unnecessary stuff, I must not lost sight of what's in front of my eyes.

[Hey brat, if you don’t want to get hurt, just quietly listen to what I say]

The moment Scarred-man tried to catch me, I disappeared from his line of sight.

[Huh?]

The scared-man has lost sight of me.

I appeared in font of the Dirty-man with the knife who held the child. There, I smelled something stinky. You should properly wipe your body and wash you clothes~! What if the children also become stinky because of you~!

[Hoi~hoo!!] (Wazu)

*baki!!* *boki!!*

I hit a hand of the dirty-man which held the knife and pulled the child.

Eh? Just now I heard some strange sound, surely his hands not broken, right? It’s impossible, indeed.

[Gya~aaaaa!!]
