THE AUTHOR OF DESTINY
01



Wars between the kingdoms in the Altopheuz empire caused by misunderstanding made many casualties. Regardless of babies, young children, women, pregnant women or the elderly, the misunderstood nobles and power freaks fought and killed all who were considered to be in the way. They all desecrated the prosperous land. As a result, hunger is everywhere, orphans trying to survive. At that time, death was no longer a rare thing. Only one kingdom survived the battle, the kingdom of Valdimora.


Nine years passed, and the kingdom grew stronger and more majestic. The victory gained from the bloodshed made the kingdom of Valdimora known throughout the continent.


"Based thief!! Arrest diaa!!" Shouted a baker on 2 others


"Ahahaha, arrest me if you can!! Ahahahaha" said the bread-thieving girl


Because he was too focused on running, the girl did not see the hole in front of him and eventually fell which made him caught by the owner of the bakery.


"Huh! Where else would you run? You hold him, I'll teach him a lesson not to steal my bread again!" Said the baker giving orders to his two friends


He beat up the girl regardless of her age.


"Why indeed? I'll just steal one, you still have plenty! I'm sure you have nothing to lose!" Said the girl


"Well?!! You still fighting?!! I've been wrong about a lot of that!" Said the baker while continuing to beat up the thief girl


Once satisfied, they took the stolen bread and left the girl in pain.


"Cihh, it's been beating me at least don't take the bread!! You dick!!" Shouts the girl


Hungry and exhausted, the girl went to the lake to drink water and catch fish.


"Look, when I grow up, I'll give you a reply! Then, I will eat a lot of bread! Ahahaha!!" The girl shouted her dream


"Just eat bread? Isn't that a sad dream? Pffft" said an uncle while laughing insinuatingly


"Huh?! Whatdoyouwant?!! You old man!! That was my dream, what was wrong?!! Cihh sucks!" The girl screamed not to accept


"Old man?! Look, I'm still in my 40s, I'm not old!!" Denied the uncle


"Hmmh stupid!" Say the girl while turning her face away


Sighing, the uncle walked towards the lake and picked up a basket he had installed the day before by the lake.


*Wahh the fish is a lot, there are even shrimp also* said the girl in the heart


"Hows it? If you help me maybe I'll give you some?" Said the uncle making an offer


"Well, I want to. But remember well, I helped you because I could not bear to see an old man lifting a heavy basket! Not because I'm tempted!!" Said the girl with a rumbling stomach


"So I get it, now let's help this old man, if you keep talking maybe your stomach will whine harder, pffft" said the uncle, mocking


"Yaaa alright!! Now stop laughing at me!! Ughh" replied the girl in annoyance


The girl and uncle held up the basket together. Then they arrived at the uncle's house


"So this is your home?, isn't it too big to live alone? Where's family?" Ask the girl


"Hahh.., just this time I met a child as chatty as you" said the uncle complaining


"Ughh, who do you call chatty?!! I'll just ask, if I don't want to answer!" Saying the girl who does not accept is called chatty


"Alright, alright.. So, you want to know where my family is? I'll tell you. This story was nine years ago. I live in this house with my pregnant wife. She is nine months old, which means she will give birth soon. One night I went looking for firewood in the woods, when I came home...He died in the first royal war. My wife is suspected of helping someone from the Dallveon kingdom. You tattooed the continuation. Huh...If the baby's born, maybe she's your age..." The uncle told his story.


"Humm, maybe you're right. Then, what about you? You're a kid, are you separated from your parents?" Ask the uncle


"I? Hmm. I don't know either. I was raised as a slave in the inn. There are still 26 other children who were also made into slaves. When the inn was about to go bankrupt, the owner planned to sell us to the nobles. But I found out about it when I accidentally eavesdropped. And somehow I managed to escape, then was in this miserable village. And as for my family, I don't know where they are. Maybe they dumped me or died, I don't know. I don't even know my name. All I got is a weird necklace around my neck." The girl told her story


"Hmm so yeah..., oh yeah, can I see your necklace?" Ask the uncle


"My trunk? It could be... Nih" replied the girl as she stretched out her necklace.


After noticing the necklace, the uncle noticed that there was an inscription engraved on the necklace.


"Isn't there any writing on this necklace?" Ask the uncle


"It's been there a long time. But I couldn't read, so until now I didn't know the meaning of the writing" replied the girl


"Would I read it?" Ask the uncle


"May" replied the girl


When reading, how surprised the uncle when he knew the meaning of the reading. It says: "Lucy Dallveon, Crown Princess of Dallveon" the man does not believe that the last of Dallveon's royal line, still unknown, now stands before him. But fearing that the girl could not hide her identity and was captured by Valdimora's royal warriors, the uncle lied to her.


"Why shut up? He said he wanted to read it, don't tell me you can't read it either?" Ask Lucy


"Ahh sorry, meaning: stay alive my son' It seems your mother is a good person" said the uncle


"Hmmh bullshit, if he's nice, he shouldn't have left me" Lucy argued


"If so, what if I have it?" Ask Lucy


"Well for what?" Lucy asked back


"Well... Well, it's just that I like collecting antiques. And I think your necklace is an antique. In exchange you can eat here tonight"


"Well then, uncle can take it. I don't need any weird stuff hanging around my neck anyway" Lucy said


"Then we better start cooking to eat" said the uncle


"Yes! Eat cool!" Lucy said with excitement


They also eat until they are full. Until night comes.


"At night, you can stay here if you want" the uncle offered


*Actually I still don't believe it, but rather than sleeping in the woods I think sleeping here is better* Lucy thought


"All right, I accept your offer. But remember well, if you fuck around, I'll break your neck!" Lucy said a warning


"Yayaya.., it's up to you. You can sleep here, let me sleep downstairs. Oh yes, just so you know I'm not interested in a little boy like you at all" said the uncle


Lucy shriveled and her face flushed because she did not accept it


"I hate you too!" Lucy then went to sleep and turned her back to her uncle


*Am I overreacting? Although a Crown Princess, in fact she is now just an orphan girl trying to survive. I think I over-spoken like that. Hah, I've decided...* Thinking of the regretful uncle then found an idea..?
