Abandoned Flower's

Good at Facing Small Children

The boy's body was thin with elongated and messy hair, wearing a shabby sleeveless shirt and dirty shorts. The boy continued to moan and rebel, his tears already falling for fear of Lloyd looking at him sharply without budging.

"Armgh! Lassess!" The boy kept trying to twist his hand to get away from Lloyd.

"Huh huh!" The new Camell caught up with Lloyd gasping for air and set her breath for a bit. "Tu. uh Leo! What are you doing?!" Camell held Lloyd's wrist as a code to remove the boy from hurting him because it was clear Lloyd was holding him very tightly. "Leo!!" Camell looked seriously at Lloyd as her last warning or else the boy's hand might break.

Lloyd slammed the boy's hand hard enough that the boy fell to the ground and pulled a bag from under his shirt.

"This is it... The bracelet I bought was in the center of the village??" Camell gawked at the parcel on the ground and took it, she looked at the boy with a shocked face and sadly did not expect the child of that age to have a fast hand to steal.

"Why did you steal it??" Camell asked the boy in a softened voice.

The boy shouted angrily answering Camell without any manners. "What is your business?!!! That stuff was ours!!! You rich people who snatched it!! My brother said that, you rich people with money are growing more and more for taking what we have!!!"

Camell and Lloyd exchanged glances, and Camell glanced back at the boy. "So for that reason you justify stealing, so?!!" Without feeling, Camell touched the boy's forehead.

"Ouch!!" The boy screamed and held his sore forehead.

"What's your name???" Camell sided with a fierce face.

"Rone..." The boy complained.

"Where did a kid your age learn something bad like this??" Camell glared at the boy.

"I'm 12 years old!!! I'm not a kid!!" Ron shouted back at Camell.

"Why are you yelling and yelling?? If you deal with bad people you could be in danger of tauk?!" Camell firmly scolded Ron. "I told you this because I'm still good with you." Continue Camell with a softened voice. "That your brother didn't mean to tell you to steal. Did your brother say he could steal rich people's property??"

"Sister didn't say that..." Ron lowered his head. "A. I know that stealing is bad, but.."

"Yes right!" Camell interrupted. "If you knew it was a bad deed what should you say??"

Ron stared doubtfully at Camell and Lloyd in turn, with the sternness of him apologizing. "A. I'm sorry." Her great-grandchild.

Camell smiled with satisfaction. "You did the right thing." He rubbed Ron's head.

Lloyd finally approached Ron and Camell. "This poor condition should be my responsibility." Lloyd took out 5 gold pieces from his pants pocket. "It's..."

"Don't." Camell held Lloyd's hand.

"It's not big money but it's enough for him to eat." Lloyd was a little confused as to why Camell was holding him.

"That's not the case, I know that sympathy is important. But that's not what this kid asked for, he himself stole. You think he deserves to be pitied like that..?"

"You..!" Lloyd disagrees with Camell's thinking.

"You think I'm the one who wants to steal?!!!" Ron shouted in annoyance after being confused to see the two adults arguing in front of him. "I didn't steal because there was no money to eat!!! And even though I'm starving I don't do anything bad like stealing!!!" Ron shouted and cried furiously.

Camell smiled, this is what she wanted to find out. "Then why are you stealing???" Camell siding.

"Ka.. my brother! He. wants to be sold as a slave!!" Ron sucked in his tears that kept falling.

Camell and Lloyd are quite shocked to hear Ron's reason for stealing.

"Slave?!!" Camell put on a serious face and crouched down parallel to Ron and held onto the boy's shoulder. "Where are you going to sell your brother?? You know who's buying your brother??"

"I don't know!" Ron kept sobbing sobs. "But there are often fathers who show up in the village, he said if I want my brother to be free I have to give him money."

"When did you make that appointment with that father??" Camell kept prying information.

Ron wiped his tears. "I didn't make a deal, because he came so often that I gave him the money when I met him. If I have money for fear of being lost, I'm told to quickly give it to him."

Already deceived, then he also blackmailed a child this small!!

Lloyd arrives holding Camell's shoulder. "You talk to this kid first, I'll go first."

Camell simply nodded and let Lloyd go with her affairs, as Camell was convinced that Lloyd would not let the matter go either.

Just the first time I saw the face of that angry duke master... It is clear that this country strictly forbids the system of slavery. Want him nobility or king though, if doing human trafficking it will lose all rights of nobility at once.

Lloyd walked alone towards the small alley and raised his hand, in the cruel appearance of all the guards and Utha as his command. "Is there anything we can help master duke???"

"I heard there's a slave trade here!"

Utha was surprised not to play. "Huh??! Isn't the empire strictly forbidden?? Who did that?!"

"It's your job to uncover that, tail the little boy who spoke to Miss Camellia. Because he said the boy often met the slave-buying seller."

"Well master duke, I'll inform the other bodyguards immediately."

Lloyd just nodded and went back after Camell.

Camell wiped Ron's tears with the handkerchief she was carrying when she saw Lloyd return, and without asking Camell could clearly read Lloyd's facial features.

Without the duke master saying anything I know that he will not allow this matter.

"Ron, now listen to me either good." Camell held onto Ron's shoulders. "Actually we wanted to buy something from the father, so we were looking for him. If you meet us with that father then we will reward you for not punishing your stealing."

Ron blinked his eyes. "I'll get some money???"

"True, of course my duty will be his reward. But this is an important task, can you do it??" Camell smiled firmly.

"Ten. of course you can!"

"alright. If you meet the father, tell him to meet us at the Sevritti inn in the village center. Do you know??" Lloyd.

"I know! That big inn, right, I'm always kicked out if I want to go in there." Ron scratched his cheek.

"Later I'll tell you you want to come." Camell smiled. "This is a secret between us, if anyone tells the father first to us then we will give the money to the man."

"Can you do that?? Why so many conditions??!" Ron did not accept it.

Camell smiled obliquely. "And we give money to the man who does his work."

Ron moved his lips slightly irritated and muttered to himself. "I can't show off to a friend."

"That wouldn't happen if you didn't tell people." Lloyd lowered his head and gave Ron 10 gold coins. "This is the down payment, the terms buy food and your needs do not give to the father."

Ron laughed cheerfully. "Make this job to me!!" Then the little man ran away.

Lloyd glanced at Camell at a glance and returned to pick up their groceries that had fallen on the road earlier. "I didn't know you were good at confronting and persuading young children."

Camell laughs. "Obviously, I have a sister!" Camell misses the bad boy Galant.

"Sister???" Lloyd cring.

"Well??!" Camell realizes that she has entered Luckingham as the adopted daughter of a Count who has no other children. "Ah that. mak.m I mean, junior sister in the academy! Haha!" Camell laughed stiffly.

Although Camell's movements were very suspicious in Lloyd's eyes, the man did not continue to ask.
