"Now sleep in my room, I'll stay at Mr. Rey's house" Liam was just about to step his foot out, but Lily's little hand held him back.

Liam turned his head, staring at Lily's brown bead that started to glaze over. Tears welled up at the corner of her eyes and eventually fell dripping down Lily's cheek.

"Don't go, I'm scared" Lily said softly. Arresting Liam who's about to leave.

"Take me until I fall asleep" Lily said. That answer confused Liam, should he accompany Lily? He himself is afraid if suddenly there is a goddamn desire to tempt him to pounce on Lily.

Seeing that Liam was silent, Lily immediately cried. Making Liam confused to calm him down.

"Don't go" Lily pursed her lips with her eyes still dripping with a clear grain.

Liam finally collapsed, he could not see the brown bead was begging him.

"Alright," Liam walked towards his room followed by Lily in the back. Liam patted the bed, telling Lily to sleep there.

Lily just complied. He threw himself down and greeted Liam's thick leather blanket.

"Liam, can I ask you something?" Lily stared at Liam's pitch-black bead which was also looking back at her. Liam just nodded, listening to the thing this girl wanted to ask him.

"Why did you suddenly show up when I was scared?" ask Lily

Liam sighed "Because I was surprised to see my house still dark, so I came to check on you" he replied.

Hearing that, Lily was only ber oh ria. Liam's hand moved stroking Lily's forehead as Lily felt her eyelids tighten, getting heavier and she eventually fell asleep. Liam stared fixedly at Lily, she who channeled sedative magic at a moderate level, it could put one into a deep sleep.

Liam got up, his feet stepped out of the house. He headed to Mr. Rey's house, watching the bright village.

*****

Early morning

Lily woke up when she heard a noise in Liam's window. He blinked his eyes while expelling drowsiness. Slowly he stepped up to the window and peeked.

The deg!

What is that creature?! Lily saw two humans, erratous, a medium-sized monster, trying to open the window of her room. They were stocky, creepy faces, their skin was wrapped in small stones, and they carried strange weapons that Lily had never seen.

Lily was trembling in fear, how was this? Should he scream for help? But if he does that fear that monster will capture and kill him. If he was just silent, his fate would also probably be captured and killed.

Prangg!!

The monsters were upset that the windows were tightly locked, without thinking they broke the window glass. It made the window glass shatter into pieces. Lily who was not far from there was also accidentally hit by a piece of glass that was thrown at him.

The eyes of the monsters were shocked when they saw that there was a beautiful girl trembling in fear inside the house. Soon they entered through the window but were unsuccessful because of their stocky bodies. They don't want to go through the door because there's an electrical magic there that's going to shock them.

Lily grew increasingly frightened, her face pale white. Not wanting to waste any time he immediately shouted out with all his might, hoping that someone would hear him.

Gee!

Lily spewed blood from her mouth. He felt his stomach hurt. His voice was stuck in his throat, his head felt very dizzy, slowly he lay on the floor and was unconscious.

Meanwhile, Liam wakes up when Mr. Rey calls him out loud. He faintly saw the panicked and paled face of Mr. Rey.

"What's up, sir?" ask her while yawning small.

"Quick! Lily's in trouble!" he nodded while pointing to the window of his house.

Liam immediately got up and looked outside, my goodness! A troll! The strange creature named Troll was trying to climb the window of his house (the house of Liam)!

Liam immediately grabbed his arrow weapon stored under the cupboard and ran out.  He quietly walked up to the troll, then he took aim and shot the troll in the head with his poisoned arrow.

Shu!

"Arrgghhh" one of the Trolls cried out in pain holding his head that was stuck in an arrow. The red liquid poured down until it finally drooped on the ground and died.

The other troll panicked to see his friend dead with a pool of blood coming out of his head. Immediately he ran but the thick net was already wrapped around his stocky body. He thrashed when he saw the elves already swarming and brandishing swords at him.

Note!:

Actually, when Lily screamed, they put a damper magic around her. So as loud as Lily screams no one will hear but them alone. When one of the Trolls shouted, his magic broke out and his screams were heard by the residents. How did Mr Rey know Lily was in danger? So at that time Mr. Rey was training her magic skills in a room. Finished practicing he walked out of the house to enjoy the quiet atmosphere of the village. Suddenly he was surprised by the sight of 2 Trolls trying to enter the window of Liam's house. He remembered Lily who was in it, immediately he woke Liam up and told him to save himself. Why didn't Mr Rey just save Lily? For that cannot be explained now, God willing will be explained in the middle of the story okay?

Back to the previous story

The troll thrashed when he saw that the elves were already swarming and brandishing swords at him. Without friends, he's just a scared loser. Just looking at her can make her cry.

Srett!

The rope at the end of each corner of the net is pulled, tied and hung to a large enough tree branch using magic. The stocky troll that was inside was cowering in fear. Especially when the green bead of the elves stared sinisterly at him. He was very, very scared.

Liam lets the residents judge the goddamn troll, he goes inside his house and finds Lily who has paled lost a lot of blood with an arrow stuck in her stomach. He clenched his hand, which he obviously won't spare tomorrow's Troll!

Soon he grabbed hold of her and carried her weak little body, and took her to the house of a healer in their village.

*****

Lily's life is almost floating, lucky they have enough healing magic. So, now Lily's just asleep. The wound on his stomach had also been treated, leaving only scars.

From today, Raven Village will tighten the security of their village, every hour they will go around, making sure everything is fine
