Dragon Soar To The Sky (Rewrite)
The Imprisoned Village

After the incident, Vallen visits the residence of Ethan, who is the son of the current village chief.

"I didn't expect that there would be Knights coming in this place, every day we thought about whether the Kingdom didn't care about us."

"Be assured that the Kingdom has gathered various information, my arrival in this place is only to find out the truth of the information. If the Polacs and their followers are found guilty, we of the Kingdom will lead them to the law."

"Dear Knight, my name is Ethan, and I will help you with anything, as long as they can be brought to justice."

"Well if it's like that, I beg you to help Ethan." Vallen held out a hand

Ethan then shook that hand.

...

In the afternoon, Ethan takes Vallen around the village. Vallen was devastated to see many residents who were severely limited. They look lethargic, sad, pale face, malnourished.

"It used to be a lot of fun, a lot of little kids playing, people walking around to shop, merchants selling things with smiles, farmers eager to work. But look what's happening now. It's all gone."

"I want to ask you something. Exactly when did this village regress?"

"About 9 months ago. The first change that occurred was the price of fertilizer that rose significantly, the second the price of basic food began to rise, and the last is the tax rate also rose. This situation made the Baron family who had been watching us be replaced, and expelled from the village by the Polac family."

"Hmm, so what about this new Baron's work?"

"There's no hope, I'm sure Noble and the Baron are already working together."

"Yes, that makes a lot of sense. Has the village chief met with Orev to discuss the change?"

"Father has often gone to the residence of Polac, and Baron in this village. However, he was always expelled for unclear reasons. The last time my father was there, he was beaten, and now he can only lie weakly in bed, every day I take care of him. To treat father, I also sold my stool to the village Baron, even though it was bargained for a cheap price."

(So the changes they experienced started happening 9 months ago. This is a new fact not written in the report.)

"Alright, I understand the situation."

"Mr Vallen, this is our daily work. In the morning we went to the fields, gardening, farming, then came home in the afternoon. But, as you can see, every day we starve, the children never smile, the parents can only wait for the day they will die."

Vallen is shocked to hear Ethan's confession, as he is convinced, none of this is simple. There must be something going on with the Polac family.

"Ethan, can I see your father?"

"I'll take you to our residence."

"Thank you."

Vallen headed towards the residence of the village chief's house.

"Master, this is our home. Please come in."

"Excuse me, sorry to bother."

When Vallen came in, a man was seen lying limp on the bed.

"Dad, I'm home."

"Eeehhh."

Ethan's father can't speak because of paralysis that attacks the nerves.

"Let's see who's coming. Finally the Kingdom will save our village Well."

"Greetings to the village chief. My name is Vallen, a Tier 2 Knight. My presence in this village is to investigate the Noble Polac family as well as its subordinates."

"May I check on your father?"

"Eh? Of course, please Mr. Vallen."

Vallen touched the hand and checked the pulse of the village chief.

(Heavy pressure, judging from his body there was a lump, I'm sure it was a blow. Blood flow is unstable, the heart beats weakly. What could this be.).

Vallen took out a needle and pierced the scalp of the village.

(This blood is mixed with poison.).

"It's true my guess."

"Master? What exactly is my father sick?"

"When was the last time your father had paralysis?"

"A day after being examined by a Physician. At that time my father was beaten up badly, then I called the healer and was only given topical medicine. The next day my father was unable to move and was paralyzed, so I finally called the doctor again, and was given medicine."

"Does this doctor give medicine regularly?"

"Of course, the Physician said that the disease that the father experienced, can be cured with drugs given by him. Therefore, I bought that expensive medicine to take care of father for these few months."

"Can I see the cure."

"Sure, wait a minute."

Ethan takes the drug and shows it to Vallen.

"Here's the cure, sir."

(Hmm, it was true. As I thought before.)

"Ethan, your dad's not sick at all."

"Huh? What does Mr Vallen mean?"

"Someone has put a live parasite in your father's body."

"What...! Sir, don't joke like that."

"i'm serious. It's no mistake this is a parasite."

"If that's true, will you be able to treat my father?"

"Actually it's not hard. But it will be very painful."

"Gosh, what's really going on here."

"This parasite can only be fed through food, your father probably ate something from the Polac residence. Then to eliminate the evidence, Polac made an alibi, by beating your father to paralysis. I'm sure that the Physician you're referring to is also a subordinate of Polac, the topical drug is also a stimulant for this parasite, and when the parasite awakens, and finds a host, the, the next stage is paralysis."

"No way... Are you sure, Mr Vallen?"

Ethan looks very guilty and anxious.

"This drug serves to suppress the Parasite temporarily, so as not to damage the body of the victim brutally. However, it remains that the nature of the Parasite is destructive, and ultimately this is what happens."

Ethan who heard this immediately sat down, he was crying, he was in pain, and he was disappointed.
