Chapter 8 Inspection - Part 3

"They probably brought in their own workers for fear that their secret would be discovered.

If the citizens knew of it, they would probably fight for some resources so they could sell and feed their families." Said Trey.

"That may be the case.

After all, since we got here, we haven't seen any people walking around.

So since the people believe the land is barren, they probably don't come here anymore.

And even if they did come, the mines are a great walking distance from their farmlands." Lucius said.

"Also, don't forget that the Entrance/Exit from Baymard is located in the central region.

So no one really needs to be here." Gary added.

Everyone agreed as well

"My guess is that they burnt all the workers when they realized how serious their situation was," Landon said.

"That would explain all the bloodstains and ash we found in all three estates.

There's no guarantee that the workers would keep their secret forever.

So the only way to bury the secret was silencing the workers permanently. " Trey added.

They had to admit, the city lord and the Barons put a lot of thought into their plans.

They didn't think there would be a day when they would have to leave Baymard for good.

They truly didn't see it coming.

"Since we're done, then let's head towards the coastal region," Landon said.

The Central region of Baymard was like the midpoint of a compass.

Moving Eastwards from the central region, one would reach the Upper region of Baymard. And In the West, you would reach the Lower region. fr eewebnovel.com

Likewise, to the north of the central regions was the entrance/exit to Baymard. And in the South, the sea coastline entrance.

Once they arrived at the coastline, Landon and his men saw many villagers fishing while others carried baskets of fish on their heads.

They spoke to the villagers, aided them and left to inspect the City walls and the forests by the entrance of Baymard.

Once they were outside Baymard, Landon looked at the walls carefully. He had to admit; the walls were pretty formidable. The walls were in perfect condition.

Moving into the surrounding forests, they heard a panicked shout and the sound of a sword hitting against something.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh"

'ting..ting....'

There was a little boy who looked no older than 8, trying to kill a giant wild boar. The boy had light bright eyes and deep red hair.

Just as the wild Boar was about to strike him down, the boy shut his eyes tightly as if accepting death.

He waited and was surprised.

Why wasn't he in pain?

Opening his eyes, he was stunned to see a group of knights and a dead wild boar on the ground.

"Thank you, sirs," the boy said.

"Hm.

What's your name?" Landon asked smilingly.

Once the boy saw Landon's genuine smile, he knew they were friendly.

"My name is Momo Lye...sir, who are you?" Momo asked curiously.

"I'm the new King and Lord of Baymard, Landon."

The boy was shocked and frightened.

"My King, sorry for not greeting you earlier."

"It's alright.

Besides, I'm more worried about you."

Mosely was shocked. 'His highness is worried about me?....' he thought.

"Mono, why were you here alone? Don't you know how dangerous it is?" Landon asked.

"I live alone with my elder sister, my king..... Our parents died when I was just four summers old. Sister told me they died because of the cold. I'm I'm here because sister recently got very sick.

I know that for her to get better, she needs a lot of meat, so I came to hunt."

Landon and the men were sad on hearing this. Although some of the men were bullied in the Capital, none had ever starved or seen someone die of cold.

They vowed that they would work hard in order to protect the people.

Landon took pity on them too.

In his previous life, he orphan, so seeing Momo struggle, he felt he should assist him

"From now on, your sister will be my adopted sister, you will be my adopted brother, and I will call you little Momo. You and my new sister will move into the castle immediately. From now on, that will be your new home. " Landon said

Momo couldn't believe it...this was the king. Although Momo was eight years old, he knew when people were kind or tried to help him. He could tell that Landon was a good person.

Landon introduced Momo to Lucius and the other knights. Everyone started teasing Momo, making him blush.

"Little Momo, let's go take my new sister home."

They carried the boar and left the forest.

Landon, Momo and the men stood outside a tiny house. They could hear tiny cough sounds coming from inside. Landon went in with Momo, Josh and Lucius.

"Sister, sister, I brought food for you."

Momo yelled as he ran into the house. Landon and the group waited in the living room area.

When Momo stepped into the bedroom room, he saw a frail but extremely beautiful girl lying on a straw bed. She had fiery red hair, light brown eyes and a petite frame.

"Sister, the King is here to see you."

Grace nearly fell out of the bed when she heard Momo.

"Momo, did you get into any trouble? why would the king want to see me?" Grace asked questionably.

Momo then narrated the entire story to Grace.

"Then let me thank his Highness then," she said as she tried to stand up.

"Sister, he said that when you're ready, he will come in."

She nodded, and Momo went out. A few seconds later, Momo, Landon, Lucius and Josh walked.

"Your highness," she said before bowing her head.

Looking at the tiny girl in front of him, Landon was sure she was 19 years old. In truth, she looked like a mini-version of 'Erza scarlet Titania' from 'Fairy Tale.'

"Please be at ease; you're my big sister after all."He said gently with a smile on his face.

Grace was taken aback by his words, and after a while she relaxed.

She found that what Momo said was true.

He was really a kind fellow.

He was somewhat cute, with his big white eyes. freewebnov(e)l.com

He looked like a cute bunny rabbit, she thought.

"My name is Landon.

This is Commander Lucius, and this is Captain Josh.

May I know your name, elder sister?"

As Josh looked at the girl in front of him, he almost forgot to breathe.

Although she looked sick, she was incredibly gorgeous. Her red hair and petite frame made her look like a fairy. The more he looked at her, the more he blushed.

The same thing could be said for Grace; she had a hard time taking her eyes off Josh.

She had never felt this way before. She blushed so hard that her already pale face turned deep red.

Of course, Lucius and Landon noticed all these and couldn't help chuckling inwardly.

"My name is Grace Lye."

"Grace, since I already take you as part of my family. I cannot bear to let you stay here with Momo on your own. For the safety of you two, please move into the palace with us." Landon asked.

"Your highness..."

"Please call Little Landon," Landon said smilingly

"Brother Landon, I'll go with you."

Momo was so happy that he jumped on the bed and gave his sister a big hug.

"Captain Josh, help sister Grace pack up here. Commander Lucius, Little Momo and myself will pack up in the dining area."

Josh was stunned. He turned and saw Lucius and Landon chuckling before looking back at Grace.

She kept looking towards the floor, but it was clear that she tried to hide her blush.

She was so cute.

Josh restrained his smile and couldn't help glaring at Landon.

'These bastards, they even have the nerve to give me a thumbs up.

HahahahaHaha.

Luckily she didn't see anything.

It would have been so embarrassing.'
