Chapter 675 - The History of Chaos III (2/2)
”No, no trouble at all” Lory tug her blanket ”Where are you from?”
”Rodant city, my lady,” said the woman.
Lory remembers she was visiting that place before and she was baffled ”That place is so far away, how can you get here?” Lory then saw a twelve years old girl holding five years old boy both of them have the same red hair and freckles on the side of the bed, the two young children bored their innocent eyes towards her, just like other people they also knew about Lory story and their eyes flickering while staring at her with awe.
Lory thought the two children are very cute ”Are they your children?” Lory smile warmly.
”Yes, they are” the woman patted her son's head dotingly ”I also have more son because he still a baby the doctor took them for further examination” she worriedly said.
”Is that so, don't worry your child is in good hands” she comforting the young mother, even though she can use her healing gift to heal the baby, but unlike any other spells, healing gift drained her mana faster than any spell she ever used, and if she helps one person then she would have the pressured to help the other people equally, if not it will incur jealousy amongst the people which would damage the hard earn harmonious environment.
That's why she never used her healing gift since she came to L'markieth at least not in public, she used to check if there any high-risk patients then secretly help them without anyone noticing, well, not literally everyone she's sure a few doctors and nurse knew about this but they keep their mouth shut. Lory noted herself to check the baby's condition later.
”Thank you your highness” the woman humbly said.
”Could you tell me how you get here from Rodant city, I thought that place got the most hits when it compares with the other city”
”It's true your highness, Rodant city always been a lawless city and most of the security or guard is working for the private company so when the beast attacked us the guard is the first to take off” she scoffed in anger.
”I'm lucky enough to find a fire truck in the middle of chaos so I get all my children inside and drove the truck without stopping at any cost, after we got out from Rodant city we came to I.H.C (International Health Center) at Westlake city and we stay there for almost three months before the camped attacked with the horde of beasts, then I run again with my children but luckily I was accompanied by I.H.C soldier who then becomes my second husband…” the women smile faintly.
”He protecting us for all these years if not because of him we won't survive this long, when we knew I got pregnant my husband received news about L'markieth then we heard that this place accept refugees, my husband feel ecstatic because L'markieth is under the jurisdiction of Harland kingdom, he said in this catastrophic time we still can put our hope to the Harland Kingdom because Lucient heir was there, as long we can get here we all will be protected by Lucient, he told me that...but, he got killed before we could get here…”
”Because of the beast?” Lory asked.
”No….human,” said the women ”A bunch of crazy people who far worst than beast….” She gritted her teeth in disgust.
Lory does read the report about the emergence of this group of people who hunt and kill humans for fun, the rumor even said they practice cannibalism too, but there's no concrete evidence ”How you managed to get away from them?”
The woman bites her lips and her brows knitted closely ”That….I don't know” she looks perplexed ”Me and my children were kidnapped and they locked inside the jail, one day we woke up and that group suddenly disappeared, they truly are!” she nods her head repeatedly to convince Lory
”The strange thing is the jail suddenly unlocked when I got out of the jail with my children a saw no one, literally no one was there, not even a sound, strangely other than people everything was still there, like the guns, swords, booze even the half-smoke cigarette on the ashtray and the coffee was still hot when I checked. We didn't know what happened as if everyone disappeared on the thin air”
Lory was stunned, she exchanged a glance with general Leon, the woman thought Lory didn't believe her all of the sudden she becomes panic ”Your highness please, believe me, I'm not lying, I swear on the name of God, my late husband name and my parent's name that I'm not lying….please - please don't send us away” she frantically grabs Lory hands as she begs her mercy.
”No – no – no, it's okay, I do not think you are lying...” Lory stroke the frantic woman shoulder ”Don't worry, I will never send you away, as long you follow the rules of this city, I have no reason to send you away, don't worry…. look, you scared all your children” she teased her a little to calm her down.
she feel more relax after Lory comforting her ”Thank you – thank you, your highness – thank you very much...” the woman sobbed while bowing her head deeply overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude and relief.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click for visiting.
”Okay, you can't get too excited, get rest and we will transfer you and your family to a better place after you passed the background check, don't cry anymore, you need to be strong for your children's” Lory help the woman to get rest, she left after the woman calmed down.
Lory then takes another round to check the other refugee's condition, thankfully other than cold, fever, and pneumonia they all physically fine, just before she left the camp someone called her ”Your highness!”
