Past Self (Part 2)

On his way out as he drove his carriage, he looked to his right, where he saw her. The lord daughter being served by one of her maids.

Anyway, the life of suffering and ridicule was his daily life but what he did know was that this day was different. Upon reaching his house, being greeted by his sisters, and after their small talk and planning for their future expense, they went to sleep.

Sadly for him, a group of torches was slowly moving toward them. As they were sleeping, around ten people came in front of their house and started talking, and a few seconds later, the door of the house was destroyed as they rushed in, and after a minute, a beating Marcus was dragged out of the house with his crying sisters.

Getting up, Marcus immediately steps in front of his sisters. But his antics were ignored as they weren't threatened by him.

"Is that it?" The one that seems like the boss asks.

"Yeah, only those three kids."

"Shit, the other might get a greater chance than us."

"Hey boss, you know how thing is this day, why not let me have one of them.

Upon hearing those words, Marcus immediately took a fierce look while staring at them.

"Noooo."

"Brother!!!" His sister yell

Go hade, but those injured and keep the other one as a virgin we can keep the boy for labor." The leader said.

"Hehe, thank boss," One of them said as he walked toward them. As he got closer, Marcus got nervous, and when he reached his limit, he dashed toward him only for him to get punched, sending him flying on the ground a few feet away, but without hesitation, he got up, and with a strange cry he rushed toward him again. But sadly, just when he was about to reach him, he suddenly resisted a massive blow from a harmer from one of them.

As he landed on the ground, he rolled a few times before spitting out blows but not the least he got up, determined to stop him from touching his sisters. As the man reached his sister, he started dragging one away, of course, the other dry to stop him, but he received a slap.

This infuriated Marcus, and with another cry, he jumps, ready to punch him with all the strength he had, but he only receives another hammer strike, sending him flying back. As he landed on the ground, he tried to ignore the pain to get up. It was too much, and he only let out a cry. As one of his sisters was drag inside, yelling, struggling to break free of the man's grip, the other one runs to him after trying to free her sister only to be kicked away.

"B-brother... "She cried out with tears in her eyes. Marcus felt a tremendous amount of anger and sorrow, but he couldn't get up and could only watch with tears running down his face as one of his precious sisters vanish inside their own house about to be rape.

Anyway, days later, he was sold separately from his sister, and the injury he suffers had worsened, and on his deathbed, he wished he was strong, strong enough to do whatever he wanted, not to be a slave, eat anytime he wanted, beat anyone he wanted.

'That was interesting,' Alex taught as he opened his eyes, he could see the old man in front of him.

"Hehehe, you not simple, are you."

After looking at The Old man for a few seconds, Alex uses the spearhead to carve something on the wall.

[I don't trust you.]

"Why?

[leaving in the slum while behind able to read.]

"That's a valid point."

[Even though I don't trust you, it's easier to kill you if you betray me than other people, so I am going to use you.]

"Hahaha...I am listening."

Putting his hand in his pocket, he pulls out a goal coin from his inventory then throws it at The old man.

"It's different." the old said after analyzing it.

[Can I use it, or do I have to convert it?]

" Hehehe, You're being careful. You don't have to worry. A gold coin is a gold coin."

[Just to be careful, exchange a bunch of them tomorrow.]

"Alright, then good night."
