THE AUTHOR OF DESTINY

06

That afternoon, in the blazing sun, Lucy arrives in the countryside where she was a slave.

"Tolooong!! That man kidnapped my son please!!!" Shouted a mother whose child had just been kidnapped. While running after the kidnapper, the mother kept asking for help from everyone, but no one cared about her.

"Momuu...! Mother...! Huaaaaaa.." the crying voice of the child

"Shut up boy! Tch, this is why I hate children so much" said the kidnapper

Suddenly, while the kidnapper was running, he tripped over someone's leg(?). She is Lucy.

"Accusingly.. What fucking hell do you want to die?!!!"

When it was a narrow and dark alley, it made Lucy invisible. And only the shadow is visible because of the street lights. Lucy who was leaning against the wall stood up

"Well, what do you want?! If you get any closer then I'll kill this boy!" the kidnapper posed a threat

Lucy ignored the men's threat and walked towards him

"Hey are you deaf?! I told you not to mend-....."

*Loh..why is it all upside down? Wait is that my body?! N-no way!!!!* The man spoke in disbelief

The little boy did not dare to look at the state of the kidnapper and just looked at Lucy. While Lucy just stared at the body of the man who was still sitting without a head and then fell. The little boy could only tremble in fear.

"Lynn!! Where are you son!!" Shouted the mother who called her son

Hearing his mother's voice, the boy ran towards him

"LITTLEN!" My boy!"

"Mother!.mother.I am afraid.huuuuu" said the child, crying in fear.

"Calm mom here. What the hell's going on? Where's the kidnapper?" Ask the mother

"I don't know, all I know is that I was saved by a masked ma'am, he was there" the boy said, pointing at Lucy

However, Lucy has disappeared quickly

"There was no one Lynn" said the mother

"You have it, the important thing is that you survive." said the mother gratefully

Meanwhile, Lucy who had just killed saw his cloak that turned out to be splashed with blood. He went to a quiet place and wrapped his robe, mask, and straw hat, then washed his robe in a river. He also only wears a shirt and shorts. In order not to be discovered, he drips a drug that can change the color of the eyes to his eyes. His eyes turned from purple to brown. Lucy has hair that is not too long, which is only limited to the shoulders. Lucy also has a height of 172 cm, so when she ties half her hair she looks like a beautiful woman is also handsome and certainly dangerous.

Lucy stopped by a tavern. He ordered a glass of alcohol. While waiting for his drink, his eyes continued to observe the situation. Suddenly came a man who was the waiter of the tavern. His name is 'Sam'.

"May I sit here?" Ask Sam

Lucy only looked at it for a moment then continued to observe the situation

"I assume you can hehe... Ummm what are you looking for? You look like you're being very alert, what's going on?" Sam asked Lucy

"Excuse me, lady, here's your order" said another waiter who brought Lucy a drink

"Well, did you drink alcohol? It looks expensive, are you a rich man?" Ask Sam

Lucy simply looked at him with a cold gaze that signaled she was going to kill him. Sam could only be silent for a moment

"Well then please enjoy your drink, I'll get back to work. Oh yeah, looks like you're a newcomer, if you need help you can ask me. Here and there I know this place very well" said Sam who tried to convince Lucy

But Lucy did not care about him at all and only drank his alcohol.

"Hey do you know? Now the inn run by Bean is getting back on its feet, even its income is now much better than its previous income" said one customer

"What's? How could? Though the inn was bankrupt until it had to go out of business" replied another customer who sat with him

"Don't tell people, but according to rumors, the inn gathers little children and makes them slaves and sells them on the black market" the customer whispered

"What's? Slave?!!" Say one customer out loud

"Sssssssst.., don't be so stupid!" Said the customer in a panic

"Ah sorry-sorry.., I just didn't expect" replied one customer

Their conversation was heard by Lucy. Which turns out the inn they were talking about was where Lucy became a slave first. And Bean was the mastermind of it all.

*Huh, so you're still alive Bean. Even after all these years, you're still as much of a bastard as you used to* Lucy said inwardly with the slightly raised corner of her right lip
