Shin Jiu become terrified his eyes fill with anxiety Lory than raised from her seat she sits next to him than he stroked his head gently "You scared?" she asked softly.
The boy scared but he didn't want to look weak especially in front of woman even though that woman is a lot older than him, Lory stifles the little boy stubbornness remind her with Lucas when their mother died Lucas refused to shed his tears he hold his tears and hold Lory hand all the way the funeral.
Perhaps all boy are the same no matter which world they come from, Lory holds his shoulder "Don't worry, nothing would happen to you" she calmed him down.
"How could you know?" he slowly lifts his head.
"Because I wouldn't let that happened?" Lory smile at him.
"But….you can't cultivate.,." Shin Jiu timidly said.
Lory tilted his head "Another lesson kid, never underestimated your opponent" Lory patted her back "That's when you get into trouble" Lory raised from her seat and approaching the window, she peeks from slightly and more people gather downstair.
"Boy, come here…" Lory beckoned him, she pulls stool closer to the window "I want you to look at this, tell me what you see"
Shin Jiu climbs the stool and peek through the window carefully, he sees four men talk to each other suspiciously with grinned on their face, everyone could see they plan something devious luckily Sister Luo realizes is or perhaps is not luck, he lifts his head towards Lory.
"What do you see?" Lory whisper on him.
"Four men, I think they want to do something bad," said Shin Jiu.
Lory smile "Good, but look at their profile how do they look?
Shin Jiu turns his head back "They are….thin, tattered clothing, perhaps they are farmers"
"Yes, that's mean they are not soldiers and that's good for us because that's mean they are not strong, but we can't underestimate them for a farmer dare to robe other people I wonder what pushed them this far, is it greed or something else?" Lory contemplating than she sighs and closes the window.
"Either way we must treated with care" Lory take out the twin red dagger from her sleeve to the table than she takes out the poison from her spatial ring and just like before she smear the poison on her dagger after she finishes she takes a raw of hand-hidden blade and smear them with intoxicating liquid than she hides it behind her back, she changed her clothes to a dark robes and pants and changed her shoes to a boots to make her easier to run, she would love to have her bow but sadly her bow has gone after she falls from the cliff.
Shin Jiu watches her eagerly, he had seen her dagger when he cleans up her wound so he is not surprised anymore but watch her prepare her weapon it gives a tingling sensation for the little boy, she is right he should not underestimate his opponent and he should not underestimate her.
"Can you cultivate?" Lory asks Shin Jiu, a lot of kids on his aged had learned a martial art especially children from an influential family and this kid background most likely not simple.
"Yes, grandpa teaches me," he said without much confidence.
"What level are you? Lory asked again.
"Knight level transition stage" he replied.
Lory becomes quiet, she begins to calculate what should and shouldn't they do, she didn't know how many people who will come for them and who else get involved with this so it's better to be assumed more than four people waiting for them.
"I'm sure they will ambush us when we fell asleep so we must prepare," Lory said than she closes her eyes.
"Why are you closing your eyes?" he looks at her in a puzzle.
"So, I get used with darkness later," Lory said calmly.
"Oh…" Shin Jiu nods his head than he closes his eyes too.
After ten minutes Lory than blows the candle, she told Shin Jiu and his pets to hide under the bed meanwhile, she crouches near the door with her eyes close waiting for any movement from outside.
meantime at the downstair, the four men were arguing with the innkeeper, The innkeeper was apprehensive and the four men look agitated, the four men armed with sickle and cleaver they brazenly come from the front door where the innkeeper stop them.
"They just harmless woman and kid, should you do this, don't you have a heart?" the innkeeper begged them to cancel they're plan.
"So, what? If we deliver the boy to the governor we would have enough food to feed our family for a week, don't tell me you don't want this isn't you're daughter haven't eaten rive for days?" sneer one of them.
"But their just innocent child and woman, we can sacrifice other people for our own good!" said the innkeeper relentlessly.
"My family hasn't eaten and my son is dying from hunger, tell me what should I do!" one of the men grimace "If I have to choose a stranger and my family, I will choose my family in a heartbeat!"
The other men nod their heads in agreement, all of they're family has starved for days if they can find food they would die, they are only a farmer and carpenter they cannot hunt beast for food because they are too weak and scared if they get hurt or die what would happen to their family so when they see a nice carriage crossed their hometown an evil thought creep to they're mind.
They knew the governor like little boy rather then women and he would pay a lot for a beautiful boy and when they saw Shin jiu cute face and fair skin they chaotic mind told them to kidnapped the boy and the woman to sell it to the governor and got a sum of money to feed they're family, so simple yet so cruel.
"So, this is what you all choose to become? A murderer of a weak woman and innocent child?" the innkeeper glare at them in disgusted, he also wants to help his family but not at the expense of innocent people, how could he look at his daughter's eyes after he committed such disgrace.
"We have just kidnapped them not killing them…" refuted the other man.
"They would rather be dead than sent to that demon! You know what would happen to them when we sent them to the governor's house!" the innkeeper shouted angrily.
"Hush, you will wake them up!" the other man put his finger on his mouth.
"I don't care, I will not let this happened at my place!" said the innkeeper furiously, he pushes the four men away to run upstairs to wake up his guest but the four men can't let that happened they grab the innkeeper hand one of them hold his hand behind his back while the other knocked his head until he unconscious and fall on the ground.
The four men then an exchanged glance to each other than they watch the quiet second floor they feel relief the guest seems not to awaken yet, slowly they climb the stairs they walk carefully to the only occupied room who right now is pitch black because the guest is probably sleeping.
They look at each other again nervously, they gulped their saliva to calmed their nerves, they raise they're weapon and slowly open the door.
