BXBX NOVEL Chapter 27 Dinner
It was a wonderful dinning room where dinner was served and the table was prepared by beautiful maids dressed in maid attires.
Liam was seated close to Cornelia, while Crimson Paul was seated at the smaller side of the of the rectangular table.
The meals that was served was finger-licking good and expensive, most of them, Liam have not seen or tasted.
Liam was famished so he downed the food quickly but with the way of a noble that his mom has taught him to do.
At a moment, he began to miss Emerald and Xavier but shook his head to clear the thought of them out of his mind.
"Hey kid, i forgot to ask who you are, you look like someone from a noble family but I don\'t recall ever seeing a kid with description like yours. I mean the red hair, the contrasting eyes and all that."
Crimson Paul wiped his mouth and said to Liam.
"I\'m new to this kingdom, my family doesn\'t exist anymore." Liam said in a calm tone.
Crimson Paul gave Liam a confused look, but Liam just smiled and took a spiced chicken wing and began peeling off the juicy meat off the bone.
Liam told Crimson Paul that he was kicked out of his family because he was cursed. when Crimson Paul asked what his family name was to do such a thing, he just replied that he doesn\'t know and that they were in a faraway kingdom before he travelled down here.
Well, even if the story was half lies, Crimson Paul did not doubt him even for a moment.
Dinner continued and ended, Liam was asked to sleep at their place because it was already nighttime and was a bad time to send a kid out to look for his home when he has just been kidnapped by some ugly geezers.
"in my room, little brother Liam will stay in my room." Cornelia let out innocently.
Since they were just kids, it didn\'t take Crimson Paul a second before agreeing.
Anything that will make his little angel happy is what he was going to do.
Liam was taken to her room and given a new set of clothes that was red and gold in colour which perfectly matched with his hair.
Inside Cornelia room, they were mostly discussing and looking at heroic legends.
Cornelia felt sleepy because she cried too much at noon so she slept off.
Liam as a gentleman... sorry, as a gentle boy covered her with the duvet.
He already had sufficient sleep inside the carriage and Cornelia room seems to contain a considerable amount of pure essence, so why sleep and not cultivate?
....
The next morning came, Crimson Paul has prepared a carriage to take Liam home.
Liam climbed up the carriage and bade them farewell with a sweet smile on his face.
Soon, the carriage was on the road and hitting.
He was here once, the path from here to the dueling centre and then to the inn where he stays was still in his mind, even if he forgot, the system was there to give him the help he needed.
The horses aren\'t your typical ones, the speed they\'re using is as fast as a cultivator who is at the peak of human realm.
In a matter of minutes, journey that could have taken an hour was almost completed.
Liam frequently looked out through the window to watch the people going on with their job but then something caught his eyes.
There were posters carrying his faces on houses and corners, he could clearly see that the person in the white paper drawn with black materials was him.
And there was a missing tag under it!
\'Was it the soldiers that did this?\' He asked himself, just then the horses halted in front of the inn.
The door was opened as Liam climbed Down, there he could see his saddened soldiers discussing with the inn owner.
"Isn\'t that the insignia of the crimson linage family?\' A chef in the inn spotted the carriage and pointed at it with shivering hand but then he noticed a young kid dressed in red and golden robe who has red hair that fits the description of the soldiers who were looking for their young master thus he yelled one more time drawing the attention of the soldiers as they swept their attention down to the carriage and spotted Liam then a relieved and happy smile crept on their lips as they launched at him to embrace him.
"Young master, thank God you\'re back"
"Young master, you made us so worried we couldn\'t even eat or do anything"
"Young master, where have you been all this while, did someone offend you?"
They began to speak their minds out, Liam smiled sweetly at them and bade the carriage farewell.
Then, Bradley returned with Fatso who was dressed in an oversized uniform.
His eyes lit up the moment he saw Liam while fatso was so sad and frustrated that he even planned to run away.
After Bradley welcomed Liam with a warm embrace, he turned to look at Fatso who was already sweating profusely as he clenched the pouch of coin in his hands.
"I think we won\'t be needing your help anymore..so..." Before Bradley could finish up his statement, Fatso interrupted.
"Yes, yes, my help won\'t be needed anymore then I guess I have to leave, yes leave. I have to leave, good bye, do not hesitate to call me next time, the police is your friend." After saying that, he turned and wanted to leave but Bradley stopped him.
"Bummer, you did not do anything, don\'t you think it\'s right if you give me the money. ten silver coin is too much to dash." Bradley let out with a frown.
At this moment, Liam has already left with the other soldiers, only the inn owner and some of the workers in the inn, including the prostitutes, was here watching the greedy officer trying to trick a foreigner.
"Hey, hey, we have a no return policy, what has gotten into my hands can\'t go back." Fatso said, as sweat constantly dropped from his forehead under the furious glare from Bradley.
"How does we have come to I don\'t. if you know what\'s good for you, handover that money!"
Both officer and foreigner bickered with each other until Finally agreeing on something that\'s Worth the money.
Bradley striked a six months long deal with Fatso.
Since, they are foreigners in the kingdom, getting houses, lands and other stuffs will be impossible unless they get a pass.
Bradley has already tried the process of getting one and it was hella difficult, so he gave the job to Fatso who agreed instantly.
