CHAPTER 46: A Wandering Little Girl

Zero's Point Of View

Upon seeing the kid with her happy smile I felt strange as I look at her eyes. It feels so familiar to me or is it just my imagination in process. "Who are you?". I asked with a concern for her but then she bagan being in shock for what I was asking. "No please, I'm not a bad kid, I was just happy h-hearing you sing mister please d-don't b-beat me". She said stuttering in panic. So I sighed for a moment to clear my thoughts. "I won't hurt you, I'm just asking your name that's it". I said with a calm voice to make her at ease.

"R-Really y-you won't?". She hesitated a bit and to confirm if I was telling the truth. "Yes I won't". I said that made her breathe in her relief. "Well asking for your name without telling mine, I am Zero what's yours?". I said with a friendly approach at her. "Uhm, my name? Angel, My name is Angel". She replied as she confirm her name. "By the way Angel, why would you assume that I was going beat you up? and why would a kid like you wandering here it's outside the town". I asked with curiousity because of concern for her life. " I-Its be-because that's how I was treated back home". She answered that made an impression on me.

"Home? so you sneaked out the Capital?". I asked but she immediately shakes her head implying that I was wrong. "I didn't sneaked out snd my home wasn't in thw capital, It is a remote village". She replied that erased my misunderstanding. "What was it that they did to you back there?". I asked I don't know why would I became so comfortable to talk to a Kid to ask her this much. Is it a Mutual understanding. "They mistreated me, locking me in the dark, beating me until they became satisfied and their children calling me monster". She said with a forminf tears in her eyes. Now I know why was very comfortable of rhis kid. "Tell me, is there a reason for them to act that way?". I asked her letting her. "It is because I am a Mixed Blood". She said that intrigued me. "Mixed Blood?". I said. "Yes, because my mother was a Half spirit and my father is a Dragon. Even though the two of them saved them many times over they did this to me, being treated that way I run away from there". She said with pain in her tone.

As she reveal her fractured leg that made me felt so mad inside. "Who did that?". I accidentally asked her with serious tone that scared her. "Oh sorry, I didn't mean to make you scared". I said to her. "T-This was done by my own Uncle". She said with a sign of traumatized tone that boiled my blood how could they di this to a little Girl. "Tell me more of it, don't worry". I said as I carress her bluish hair. "Is it fine?". She asked me. "Yes it is fine". I said to her with a reassuring approach. She then moved closer to me as she lean her head into my shoulder. "That man he's a Monster in a Human clothing". She spoke with a grudge in her voice. "Is he the one who firstly judged you?". I asked her with calm voice. "Yes he's the one who blamed my existence the cause of poverty but I wasn't" She said as she began to remember them with her heavy breathing. "Are the two of you blood related?". I said that she immediately shakes her head. "We weren't related to each other, He was an admirer of Mother when she's a Maiden but then whe she died, I was taken to his care". She told he story to me and stopped for a moment.

"I was so happy in learning that I was going to be taken care of by him since he was kind towards Mother, but I was so wrong". She muttered as she was sniffing to suspend her tears to fall. "Because it was only a deceptive personality, He decieved everyone thst I was the harbringer of famine but it was his own doings smuggling and hoarding their crops". She said as she started crying so I pat her back to calm her down. "Don't think of those too much now, you're free so live the way you wanted it to be". I said to her as she look at me. "Bu-But I don't know where to go?". She uttered with gloominess.

"Then you can go on a journey with us, dont you want to see the world around you? Angel". I said that to her that made her be lively. "Is it fine with the other people you're with?". She asked with concerns for others. "Don't worry they'll understand and surely they'll treat you like a little sister". I said with confidence. "Then can I call you Big Brother?". She said that made a lively expression. "Of course I'll be happy to be". I said to her because having someone address you like that makes you feel healed. "Then as a Big Brother let me see your leg". I said that made her a bit hesitant. "H-Here but don't push it B-Big B-Brother". She said in a cute way.

"Tell me what would you like to be when you grow up?". I asked her. "I want to be a Wizard when I grow up". She said with confidence to her resolve. "Then can you use magic?". I asked her but she suddenly become shy playing with her fingers. "The truth is... I didnt know how to do it". She said so I inspect her status.
