A living burden

'She's that person?' 

Claude gazed at Penny in disbelief, watching her dust off her hands with a smug grin on her charming face. It didn't take long when Penny single-handedly defeated these robbers, leaving them almost naked in this cold and tied up using their clothes. 

Currently, this occurrence had also reached his ear. Men recently turned up from across the earldom, tied up and naked. The only difference was that there was no placard hanging on their neck. The Earl investigated this and figured that all the victims were associated with small or big crimes. 

Thus, the people called this vigilante who was 'hunting' these bad guys down as a hero. It had a good and bad effect on the earl's name since a vigilante would always be a vigilante. Although it was targeting the bad guys, it was challenging his authority.
