17 Warning (2/2)

Naota remembers something.

(Back then...When I beat up those kids who were making fun of my mother's job...)

”BUT MOM, YOU DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! IT WAS ME-”

Naota's mother patted little Naota's head.

”It's not that you didn't do anything but rather I would felt guilty if my son was expelled from his school for protecting me.”

(Mom had no choice but to do as the principal said...She did it all for me even if she didn't like it. She smiled even in the hardest hours)

Naota looked at the ground as he walked in the town.

(Protecting me huh? She didn't have any idea how guilty I felt for what she was doing...Maybe...That's how all the people in the city feel. Guilty for the woman who protected the town)

Naota looks in front of him and he sees Rochel walking on the street. ”Hey Naota.” She says and smiles.

”Tsch!” Naota ignores her and walks past her. Rochel seems a little shocked by Naota's action.

(This woman...Smiling even at a time like this...There is no way in hell I am letting that bastard Pistom Mortel take her or Adana away from here. I will protect them and at any cost!)

The determination in his eyes glimmers like a shining blade of a sharp sword.

Next morning,

Everyone wakes up in the inn while Naota sits on the top of the inn.

A man blitz in the middle of the town, ”THE CITY LORD OF BLUEMOON, PISTOM MORTEL IS HERE!!! EVERYONE I REPEAT THE CITY LORD OF BLUEMOON, PISTOM MORTEL IS HERE!”

”The city lord...” Mason seems shocked.

”Of Bluemoon...” Adana and everyone in the room seem to be in shock too.

Naota smirks, ”No running away from this.” Naota says to himself as he stands still on the rooftop.

Rochel gets herself ready. ”I have no other choice left with me now...Brother...” Rochel looks at a photo.

”City lord of Bluemoon, this is where I will it all!”

”I am here for my sweet Rochel.” Pistom says to the citizens with a smile. ”Hmm?”

”Sweet Rochel huh? I think you have come to a wrong place than.” Pistom recognises the voice and turns his neck in to look in front of him.

”Takaki Naota...What a surprise it is to see you here.” Pistom says with a frustrated face.

”I can't say the same for you.” Naota says with a smirk.

”Oh really? What an idiot you are to come all alone by yourself.” Pistom says to Naota. ”Of course I am an idiot but I am an idiot who will take you down and I will take you down for good!” Naota says as he unsheathes his blade.

”I thought I would let you live for a few more day but that doesn't seem to be the case...If death is what you wish for, so be it. Skar kill him! Kill him nice and slowly.” Pistom orders Skar to kill Naota.

Skar was in front of Naota and unsheathes his sword. The battle of Skar and Naota is about to begin.
