CHAPTER 10

CHAPTER 10:

Clip clock clip clock

The sounds of hooves resounded as the citizens of the town made way the moment their eyes laid on the representative flags proudly waving itself atop the luxurious carriages.

Their eyes keep widening and panic strickened them the moment they saw a snake elegantly coiling around a black skull that was filled with rose thorn designed flag. It was a designated Hareth family representative flag.

A disdained but always feared family who always bring great terror and great possibility of crime has now a family member crossing their town road, of course they would tremble in fear and started to babble complains.

Some even downright staggered and fell into a complete breakdown.

"Why are they here? The imperial guards.. call the imperial guards! They must immediately capture these vile criminals!"

"Goodness. Are the royal family not doing their job well to let these abominable creatures enter even a small area of the territory. Are they already starting to corrupt?!"

"Ah ah! Call the imperial guards already, what can our meager soldier even do if they start to do massacre! Ah ah!"

"No! We're all gonna die!! Sob sob, I still haven't even proposed to Mary yet!!"

"Wah!! My daughter is still nine and she's already going to lost me too to become an orphan. Sob."

They have a lot to say, that's why they were filled with great relief and surprise when they saw the carriage never stopped and even went a level faster, not stopping to do any thing horrible to them.

"Look! It actually left us out and went on its own. Ahaha! We're still alive."

They sighed a sigh of relief and huged each other in tears until they calmed down. After the calming moment is after all the time to curse the Hareth family that's a vile, abominable and a questionable race for being descendants of the snake god.

"Ha! Those people still have the rationality to think of the consequences, at least they still have intelligence to think, I thought they would be brainless and start a massive slaughter, like they have always been stupid, just got scared for a second there. Haha!"

"Right, as most expected of those d*mned snake, they are so scheming and vile, they do nothing but commit a crime to us ordinary citizen. Goodness, when will those creatures make great contributions to our world, they keep acting as parasites all the time."

"I don't know. It's probably when they all die?! After all, as long as they are alive, they would ruin this world further.. Keke, when will the Adamantes take them out already and serve righteous justice."

"Right!"

"Just burn them all to death on a stake! They all deserve it!"

Truly, this is the nature of humans, they curse what they all fear and try to take them out as a whole 'society' as a defensive mechanism to mask the shivering they always felt when they ever got a glimpse of them.

Just then when they were all talking vile, vile, whatnot. A little boy and a girl pair who both look alike with pink hair, blue eyes and almost the same stature stopped their action of exploring the garbage for food and raised their heads to those people and then to the almost dissappearing carriage from the distance.

What attracted them the most was the snake in the waving flag atop it, in their view, it was so beautiful and elegant just like the left imprint of an image a woman with red hair and inscrutable face have.

The eyes quietly and quickly formed slits akin to snakes then reverted back as quickly as lightning, no one saw and even if there were, they would heed their father's warning and end them quickly... just like they have always done.

Nympha's brows are wiggling in amusement

at the adorable antics this people who keep cursing them have.

Sometimes, she gets irritated at the lacking vocabulary of this people who repeats used words such as 'vile' 'evil' 'scheming' whatnot whatnot.

It was so funny sometimes she wants the hearing skill granted by her adamante bloodline to have the function to shut off completely, as she would always hear useless things complained by this amusing group of town people.

But in the end, she would think of the response to her request back at the palace, she expectedly got rejected.

'I'm sorry, Lady Hareth, but the person you request is after all a very important asset to the imperial palace, she has the value and worth that can let us offend the lady, please forgive us.'

She have to give up, after all the princess was hinting that me, just the second lady of the Hareth family would offend the whole imperial family if she forces it. She dislikes bunch of troubles when this war didn't even began for real.

"A pity. Did the girl offered a great construction deal to let them even have the guts to face me, a bit of a trouble, wish I could have let her entered my hunting zone but I guess it was wishful thinking, Hays, truly a pity."

Shaking her head in regret, she seemed to smell something before completely leaving the random town she crossed.

"What is it? Very familiar."

She let her tounge out a bit in the air, but the carriage kept moving and she lost tract of the target and lost the trace.

"Was it just me? I feel like I just sniffed something very very similar."

She frowned and decided to cut off her curiosity for now, and now, she was going back home, a matter she would always give great focus all the time, the greatest foes are after all the fellows in the pit itself.

'Snakes are creatures of the jungle, therefore they obey its' laws to survive for supremacy.'

Sighing, she waited for a good deal of hours to reach a great distance near a stack of large mansions. Before reaching, two manors by the sides still need to be bypassed. One is her house, and the other is for another.

Peeking through the curtains, outside was the time for sunset. A casual order was told to the driver to direct the carriage and head towards the main mansion.

The door was opened and she was escorted out by a knight, lazily fanning herself out, she stopped for a moment.

"Well, well, well if it isn't Creedas? What's up with his expression?"

An aide who awaited for her came close and informed,

"My Lady, as far as I know, the youngest lord actually started to act like that after he met a young lady when he hunted in the forest."

"What? So what if he met a girl out of nowhere back in the forest. Why would he look like that, huh?!"

"This.. we don't exactly know, but rumors started circulating that he could possibly have.."

"Have what? Answer quickly Geshan, don't waste even a bit of my time."

"He fell in.. love."

"Fell in... Are you all crazy?! This lass who is only 8 years.... nevermind."

She was about to berate but remembering that there was another person who fell inlove at the age of 5, what can she even say with a 8 years old.

She went close to the young boy who keeps blushing and smiling seemingly excited for good days to continue coming.

"Lass, I heard rumors that you fell inlove."

Standing infront, she asked in a curious tone. But the boy seems to have been splashed with cold buckets of ice and quickly formed an expression of casual indifference.

"Second young lady, randomness would circulate in places expected. I could not possibly fall inlove with an elder noona I recently met."

"Well, we might not know, but are you really telling the truth?"

"Of course, who would dare lie to you, second young lady."

"Was she pretty?"

"...The noona was not bad."

"No way! Don't you meet with me every other day, how can you be easily charmed, every family member is so pretty, and I am so beautiful, don't act like it is the first time you saw someone so enchanting, would you not?"

"She's not the prettiest, I agree about that, but the elder noona is still very pretty."

"As beautiful as me?"

"Not including you in the talk."

"How come, if not including me, titled, the most beautiful woman, then she must be the second prettiest, hm."

"...."
