Chapter three

Levi's pov

The girl tried to get up and she showed she was holding a bird close to her. "What a strong willed kid" Farlan said before she could fully stand up her back hit the door and she sat there against the door when two men showed up looking for her. "Over here" one had yelled to the other men I tsked "Bastard, you're being chased?" Farlan looked at me "what should we do?" he asked

I looked at him just as the men had gotten near the stairs "Shit! That brat...she really bite me." the main man had said looking at his hand "When she's caught, I'll be the first to have fun with her!" we heard him say as we watched them from the doorway. "There's no fun or anything on a brat like that." The second man replied the first man then looked at us.

"Huh? Hey, there's a dirty little kid over here, right?!" he asked "Those are the only kids around." Farlan responded "huh? You guys the thugs in this area?" the man said before walking up to us. "Which of us are?" Farlan questioned The man spotted the girl by the door "Hey....I've found her!" he said "I thought as much. Are you guys friends?" the other man said.

"Not at all" Farlan quickly answered "Then hand her over to us. You'll be sorry if you cover for her." the leader said "After all she tried to get past the 11th stairway without paying!" the second in command said. We both raised our eyes at that statement.

"You guys should know this, the 11th stairway is under the jurisdiction of one of the nobles, Lobov. Anyone who tries to pass without paying is prosecuted." the second in command said "Of course, you guys will be charged too for being her accomplice. If you guys get it, hurry up and hand her over!" The third man said

"I don't care anymore move away from her!" The leader said he then came up to me and touched my shoulder. I took my small knife and cut his hand with it before grabbing his shirt "Don't touch me with your filthy hand. I might get dirty" I told him before throwing him to his men.

"oh my...You can't do it like that. We always prioritize hygiene. Wash your hand and come again." Farlan said to them "these men are dangerous let's go!" the second in command told the third man while we watched them leave the girl was looking at me with pure awe. I turned and looked at her "hey, how long are you going to hold it to your stomach?"
