Haru sells his horse to a random shop and gets some more money in his pocket. He knew that money was important in this corrupt kingdom. He suddenly decided to establish a career as an Imperial Police officer in the Capital.
“The problem is connection.”
Haru doesn't know anyone in this place and he believes the money isn't enough to keep him from being targeted by someone. He had an idea, but he wasn't sure how to implement it.
“Can I sell your horse?” ask Sayo.
“It's okay. That's not my horse,” Haru said.
“Then whose horse is it?” ask Ieyasu.
“That's from the bandits I mentioned earlier,” Haru said.
“….”
Ieyasu sighed and said, “I wish I could meet a bandit on the way early.”
“Ieyasu!”
Haru did not think much and asked, “You will join the army?”
“Ya,” says Ieyasu without hesitation.
“Yeah, let's take a walk in the Capital first,” Haru said and not think much.
They nodded when they heard it because they were curious about this place. They moved around the city and had to admit that this place was different from their village. They could see many people wearing very luxurious clothes in this area and did not seem to worry about food or money.
Haru could see the envious expressions of Sayo and Ieyasu when they saw the people in this city.
Then they suddenly saw something that surprised them.
“A-What is this?” Ieyasu.
Sayo was too shocked to say anything.
Haru did not blame them because he felt it was quite cruel. He saw many people crucified on wooden poles with mutilated bodies.
“This is the way the Capital scolds everyone for not opposing them.” Suddenly someone said.
“Isn't this too cruel?” Ieyasu.
The man snorted and said, “Kejam? You haven't lived in the capital in a long time, have you? Poor countryside.”
“...” Ieyasu speechless. He wondered how many people kept calling him “rural”. Although he did not tell anyone that he came from the country.
“I have seen many people like you, had big dreams and decided to go to the Capital then ..” The man closed his eyes and said, “Being disappointed while living in fear and poverty here.” He looked at Sayo and smiled. “But you are very cu—“
“Argg! My eyes!” The man screamed in pain as his eyes were pierced by Haru.
Haru pierced the man's eyes and said, “Don't look at him with those eyes.”
Sayo was a little surprised by Haru's actions but also felt quite sweet because she was quite uncomfortable with the man's gaze.
“Let's go, we have to run,” Haru said and take Ieyasu and Sayo away from this location. He knew that this man was just a passerby without any strength.
Ieyasu laughed happily because he was also upset with the man.
They went to a nearby bar and hid inside until the problem was over. They are also very hungry because they have not eaten before.
“Order it, I will treat you,” Haru said.
“Bulkah?” Ieyasu.
“I'll order it soon!” Ieyasu said and started ordering a lot of food.
“Ieyasu! Don't be so shameless!” Sayo reprimanded Ieyasu again. He sighed and looked at Haru with an apologetic expression. “Sorry, Haru.”
“No problem, my meal is also quite big,” Haru said.
“Haru...” Sayo is at a very easy age for her to fall in love with someone. Having someone reliable in a foreign place really gives him certainty and he is also his type.
“The food is coming!” Ieyasu said with a pleased expression.
Haru looked at Ieyasu and wondered if it didn't bother him as he teased Sayo. “You didn't eat?” He looked at Sayo.
“I – I'll eat!” Sayo hurriedly said with a red face.
Haru looked at the food and sighed. He knew it would taste bad, but he decided to taste it. Only when he was about to thrust a fork into the meat did he hear a woman's scream.
“Kyaaaa!!!”
“Let go of him!”
They turned around and saw a fight on the side. They saw a fat man with short black hair with a purple line on the left side of his bangs holding the hair of the girl who licked her cheeks while staring at the man on the ground with a sadistic expression.
“You !”
Then five people suddenly moved to catch the man and stop him from moving.
“Hehehe, this girl is too sweet for you,” said the man with a full expression staring at the young girl in his hand.
The girl was extremely frightened under the hands of this fat man.
“I'll kill–“
The five people started beating at the man who was about to threaten the fat man.
“That group!” Ieyasu stood up and wanted to enter the scene.
“Ieyasu!” Sayo hurriedly stopped Ieyasu because she knew that the person who had a lot of bodyguards was not someone normal. He knew that the fat man had to be a noble in this city and it was extremely dangerous to fight against him.
Ieyasu wanted to say something, but suddenly he heard the sound of a gun.
*bang!* *Bang!* *Bang!*
Five bullets pierced the heads of five men who struck the man lying on the ground. Even though they were martial arts experts, they did not expect someone to suddenly shoot them in the head.
The fat man was shocked when he saw that his bodyguard had died.
“Do not make my food bad.”
Everyone looked towards Haru who was walking towards the fat man. They knew the identity of the fat man and knew that Haru's fate had ended when he attacked the fat man. Some women seemed to feel regretful when they saw Haru walking towards the fat man.
“H – Hai...!!” The fat man was a bit scared, but hurriedly said, “If you kill me then my cousin will not let you go!”
Haru was a little confused and asked, “Who is your cousin?”
The fat man seemed to get back up when he heard Haru's question. “My Honest Partner Prime Minister! You have to apologize to me and—–” He couldn't finish his words because he was hit by Haru.
*bang!*
“You're the Honest Prime Minister's cousin? Wife Esdeath!”
The fat man was thrown and looked a little dizzy, let alone hearing Haru was Esdeath's husband.
