Back To the Beginning
The Mysterious Child


Everyone is a liar.


That's what I learned from my life. I will never trust anyone I meet again. Behind their good side, hidden the devil's side. They are free to change according to their wishes and needs.


Today we arrive at the kingdom they call Breithorn if I don't remember wrongly. As usual we were used as a 'little gift' to celebrate the good relations of the kingdom. Whatever it is, we were made to be different dead.


Arriving in this kingdom, from the entrance gate my body suddenly felt strange, unpleasant than usual. I feel the heat in my body, I feel like I'm sick. But this feeling is stranger than the usual pain I often experience. This heat is burning inside my body.


It seems that I did not manage to hide this sick condition of mine, it was because I suddenly fell out of line and the whole person immediately focused their gaze on me.


I could hear a loud crack from someone and I could also feel someone pulling me to wake up. But what power, my body is so limp it can't be moved even if I force it. And slowly my consciousness disappeared, leaving behind a commotion caused. I fainted.


......................


I woke up in a room very foreign to me. I've never been here before. Illuminated by the dim light, there seemed to be a person who looked like a doctor and another person beside him. They seemed to be talking something important, and it was possible that the topic they were discussing was about me lying on this hard bed.


Seeing that I had regained consciousness, the man beside the doctor immediately approached me, and without giving any explanation immediately pulled me to wake up. Even though my body was very limp, I forced what the man's will was according to even though it felt really bad. I saw once the doctor looking at me with a face of pity and immediately rejected my view. Waking up from that hard bed I was immediately dragged forcibly to get out and back into my previous crowd.


Day after day passed, my condition did not improve but got worse. Now I've broken the record of six passes out in a day, and I think my condition is getting worse. In the midst of suffering from this pain, no one around me cared. I feel so alone, I want at least a warm hug.


curled up in the dark corner of the room, without me noticing that there was someone in front of me. He said nothing, but was immediately busy dealing with the iron that bound my hands. I didn't know what he was going to do to me, so I just gave my fate to fate. After he finished dealing with the iron, he immediately pulled me hard to follow him. Even with my body condition is quite fit this time, I can not follow the movement, therefore I fell several times.


Arriving outside I was led to follow a passageway. This hallway is very clean in contrast to the one I've been through usually. I could see some angry and upset faces from some people for having soiled the floor with these dirty feet of mine.


Far away, it seemed like we had arrived at our destination, it was a beautiful looking door, this was the first time I had seen such a beautiful door decoration. The door opened and inside I could see three people sitting together.


...****************...


I was finally taken by the two young men who were in the room. They looked different from the people in the kingdom when viewed from their clothes. Is it possible that they are not part of the kingdom? So what will my fate be?


I could notice from these two young men, one of whom was trying to get closer to me and the other one seemed to be contemplating something. I wanted to respond but I still couldn't trust anyone.


He took me to a place outside the kingdom. Am I free? I see people and crowds that I have never felt in my life, because I spend a lot of time sitting at home. Ugh, actually I don't want to remember my past because it's going to hurt me so much. I promised to forget and leave everything to destiny.


The longer it feels the more exciting because I feel my freedom, but slowly painful on the soles of my feet because it does not count. I should at least hold it this time.


It was my thought, but suddenly one of the young men who had been walking beside me appeared in front of me and extended both his hands before me. I let him act and I ended up in this position, I was carried by him. Is he strong? I don't want to bother him.


In the end we continued our journey to a destination I did not know.


......................


The two young men who had been walking started to slow down their path and turned towards somewhere. That spot... I don't know. Maybe this place was on the board, but I can't read it. Although I do not know what this place is, I do know that there are not many people in there. Maybe this is where they live.


They opened the door of the place and continued their steps inside without any hesitation.


The young man exclaimed to show his whereabouts, and it was responded from within by someone. He sounds like he's driving this way.


Shortly after, someone appeared from within. She's a girl, she looks about the same age as me, but she's probably older. From her looks I can guess she is a cheerful woman.


When he looked at me he was confused and astonished because I was a stranger. Seeing the reaction from him, the young man who was holding me slowly and carefully tried to take down from his sling. Now that I could see the woman in front of me better, she was taller than me, she might just be older than me.


From his face I could see the question that was on his face, 'who is he?' I have often faced such a face.


Not only him, then came an old-looking woman coming from behind him.


No one starts the introductions. So I have to introduce myself, right?


Introduce I am a royal slave, with the honor of these two young men is my master.


Maybe that's what I should say. To be honest, I had a hard time saying a single word, but I had to repay the kindness they gave me.


These two young men are good people.


All right, one two three


"We took a child who seemed lost on the road when we returned from the kingdom. Seeing her helpless condition, Noland and I decided to help her find her parents or people she knew, but to no avail. So, for a while we want this child to stay for a while in this inn," said one of the young men.


Suddenly my world felt cracked and I was slapped by life. The slap was so loud that it reminded me forcibly of my past and the nature of man.


I misjudged. This young man is a liar.
