CHAPTER 14
When she reached into her waist, Viviana couldn't find the money bag she had been carrying.
So there was no mistaking it if the boy had deliberately bumped into him to steal the money bag around his waist.
"Hey!" Viviana immediately got up and ran after the boy in the same direction.
'Unlucky! He even chased me!'
The boy panicked because his prey had just chased him. In fact, it was so fast that it was almost close to him.
People who pay attention just watch. The boy turned to a quieter place to lose track of the woman who was chasing him.
"Ah!"
Suddenly something seemed to block him in front. The boy was thrown one meter backwards because of the impact of something.
Even though when he looked ahead, there were no walls or any large objects in front of him.
Even though he was surprised, he didn't want to think about it any longer. Immediately got up again and ran behind him.
"Hah!"
This time he saw a tall, black-robed man standing right in front of him.
Fiery red eyes with a gloomy face, covered the darkness in this small alley.
But quickly the boy turned back. His attempt to escape was still full of enthusiasm.
Of course Raymond Wyatt won't let it happen. No one could escape from his grasp once they were targeted for capture by him.
The right hand stretched out towards the dean with open fingers, emitting a purple light which finally aimed at the boy.
A rope made of purple light tied the boy's body. Making the boy fall face down onto the asphalt of the road.
Hosh... Hosh....
Viviana, who had just arrived and was still panting, was shocked to see that the boy she had been chasing was bound by magic. Not even able to stretch.
There was something else that surprised him even more. The man who aroused curiosity in his heart, he was the one who caught the boy thief.
Raymond, who was still holding out his hand, began to lift it upwards slightly. Slowly the little thief's body was lifted until he floated.
"Wait!" Viviana immediately approached Raymond.
"Don't hurt the child!" Viviana asked firmly.
Raymond frowned with narrowed eyes.
"This child has stolen your money, Lady. I have to punish him," said Raymond in a cold voice.
"Let go! Let go of me!"
'I can't die. All the children still need my help.'
The child rebelled and asked to be let go. That annoyed Raymond. He strengthened the straps on the child with his strength.
"Let her go!"
Raymond rolled his eyes at the woman beside him. He also questioned the reason, "The boy has stolen. Why should he be let go?"
"Sometimes there are times when people are forced to do evil because of circumstances. You understand what I mean, right?" said Viviana.
Even though he was surprised and furious at wanting to punish the little thief, Raymond was forced to comply with Viviana's request. Lowered and untied the magic rope on the boy.
"Cough... Cough...." The boy still felt short of breath and was coughing.
Viviana, who was worried, immediately approached. Holding the boy's shoulders and squatting in front of him.
"You're okay, right?" he asked because he was worried.
"Do not mind me!" The boy roughly brushed Viviana's hand off his shoulder.
Viviana was forced to move away and stand back up to make the boy even more angry.
'I have to buy medicine immediately before Meli's illness gets worse.'
Viviana was astonished to know the boy's thoughts of wanting to buy medicine for someone.
However, unlike Viviana, Raymond was even more furious because the boy dared to be rude to Viviana instead of thanking her.
You could even feel a very strong Mana aura. The fire burned like hell, caused by a surge of anger.
Raymond could only endure it even though he really wanted to end the boy's life.
"Do you really need the money?" asked Viviana.
The boy glared big and looked up at the adult woman in front of him. He saw the woman smiling sincerely at him.
"If you really need it, I will give it to you. But, in exchange, take me to your place," said Viviana with great tenderness.
The boy beamed. His eyes blinked several times because he still felt unsure about the attention of the woman in front of him.
'He's not a bad person, right? What if he's a bad guy who wants to catch us all? I can't believe it.'
The boy narrowed his eyes, glaring at Viviana who was already well prepared for him.
Viviana took a deep breath and smiled. She introduced herself, "My name is Viviana Eustacio. I will not do anything bad to you."
"Eustacio...."
A very well known name in Elston. Everyone knows, even in remote places. Meaning the boy, he also knew Eustacio's family name. And also heard the news about Lady Eustacio who had just introduced herself to the public.
Unexpectedly, the Lady who people were talking about was now right in front of him. With a smile on his face, he greeted his dirty self with full sincerity.
"Okay... Alright."
Viviana was happy because the boy finally agreed to take her back to his house too.
"Master, thank you for your help again. I will leave for a while with this child. You can also go back..."
"I'll come too!" Before he finished speaking, Raymond immediately interrupted.
Viviana blinked her eyes several times in confusion.
'How could I leave him alone with the child. I'll go with him and see to it all myself.'
'I wonder what this guy is thinking, huh? I'm really curious because I can't read what's in his heart,' thought Viviana.
***
A house is located at the end of town. It looked dark and gloomy because there was no lighting outside. There's only one of those houses around here.
This was the first time Viviana had gone to a place like this. Just standing in front of the door, there was a faint smell of dust. There were lots of spider webs covering the front of the house. Viviana could estimate that the size of this house was not even bigger than her room.
"This house is very small. Sorry if you feel uncomfortable," said the boy named Ethan.
"Does not matter." Viviana couldn't complain because of the shabby conditions in this place. Because he himself really wanted to go to this place.
Knock knock knock....
"Kids, I'm home."
Ethan opened the door after giving the news outside. Immediately several small children greeted him happily at the door.
"Welcome back, Ethan!"
Simultaneously greeted Ethan. There were two twin boys and three girls who seemed to be the same age. They all hugged Ethan at the same time who was taller than them.Download Novelah App
