32: Mission at the Lord's Mansion II

"What the hell is he doing? Has he gone mad?!" Iris was panicking while watching the ruthless Ares hurt people Causally.

"Is something wrong with him? Maybe he can't control himself or something? If so do something so he doesn't go too far!" She had looked at Neon in panic.

"Nothing's wrong with him" Neon expressed "That's just him.. That's the real him with a pinch of madness which is rather new"

It explained to Iris who was utterly speechless. With both her eyes wide opened, she looked at Ares who had just killed off someone!

She panicked with both hands over her mouth " What did..he do that for?! He's lost it!"

She couldn't believe her eyes.

*****

Ares couldn't have considered himself lucky anyways, because he knew dodging that arrow attack was by no way a luck..It was something he could effortlessly do.

With that a Smirk came up his face a he slowly stood firmly " And who is that now that doesn't love his life...."

Before he could finish his sentence, he felt a sword slightly placed by his neck side. A sign to tell him that he was surrounded and any move would lead to his doom!

Ares couldn't see who it was that had the sword by his neck, but he could smell the person..And having taken three sniffs that weren't Obvious, He knew who it was.

"Mr General second in command, Are you still after the humble me? Or are you simply courting death?" He questioned.

"Just shut up and don't even think of saying or doing anything! If you do, I'll end you here!"

The second in command stated..The same Only surviving soldier in the previous attack Ares had conducted against the soldiers holding the slaves captives.

Ares simply smiled at his words "You'd kill me? Are you sure about that, Mr General second in command?" Ares questioned him with a twisted smile.

"By the order of the city's lord, Lord Kan, You're under arrest for murder and causing unrest in the city.. So you should remain silent and go with me now quietly"

The second in command didn't expect Ares to agree to it that easily..Based on his brief knowledge of him, He already knew Ares was a stubborn fellow..He already knew he wasn't going to agree easily. So basically he had prepared a backup plan

"Under Arrest? By the Lord Kan? The ruler of this District?" Ares repeated as if he didn't hear what The previous speaker had Said.

"Yeah, That's right. So behave yourself and come with us peacefully so no one gets hurt!" He threatened Ares

With the man's sword still against Ares' neck, there was a brief silence before Ares smiled "Sure, let's go"

That statement from him had left The second in command speechless. He couldn't believe that he'd easily agree to that!

It was simply beyond his expectations, especially on Iris's side who stared in shock.. For once, Iris wanted him to kill those people off ruthlessly!

"What's he doing now? Why did he agree to that? Is he going to leave us behind?" Iris asked, confused.

Neon who received the question didn't see too surprised. He simply had a plain expression, followed by a sigh.

"I never knew what's running on that kid's head. It comes up like a light and then goes off like one.. I think he has grown more mysterious " Neon expressed.

"Then does it mean he's up to something? That's why he agreed to go with them easily?" Iris asked.

"That's most certainly why. Because he wouldn't go with them just to be locked up and end up being beheaded. Will he?" Neon stated.

They had their eyes on Ares who was ahead.

They watched as the second in command had slowly taken off his sword after a while of contemplating.

He had then got out his handcuffs which he used on Ares' hands..Ares voluntarily let his hands become tied up.

"Now let's go" Ares Smiled looking at the New General.

The previous second in command, who was now the new general was still puzzled by his actions..He had wondered why Ares would agree to go with them.

But since he couldn't get any suitable explanations, He simply nodded.

"Take him Away" He ordered.

"Your Highness! How long are you going to take this case on?"

A worried looking guard had voiced out his worries as he followed behind a young man across the mortal's street.

The young man before him was one looking like a gentleman.. With a white and silver robe, he looked like a rich young Master.

And he was even referred to as Your Highness, So there was no doubt that he was rich!

This young man had a long smooth hair with a delicate luxurious looking silver hairpin on his hair.

With both hands behind, he stopped and turned to look at the worried looking guard.

"Didn't I tell you not to refer to me as Your Highness anymore? It's Young Master.. Get used to Calling me that"
