I'M A Villains In My Second Life
The Chapter 211

Leathina wriggled then slowly touched the back of her neck which was painful and slowly opened her eyes.

“No-on Lea?” Call Troy panic.

“Akh!” peekik Leathina's.

Troy is assigned to look after Leathina for a while until Adam and Nina return, unfortunately, so panicked because they do not know how Troy had to hit Leathina again until fainting again.

“Troy why is your face like that?” asked Nina who had just returned after cleaning herself and changing her clothes.

Troy's face was pale and covered in sweat.

“Have you seen a ghost?” asked Adam who was following Nina in while bringing some food for them after a day of activities.

Troy did not answer a single question from Nina or Adam, he just continued to look at Leathina who had been made unconscious and re-examine if there were abnormalities due to the blow just now.

“Is Miss Leathina not awake yet? Don't get too close to Miss Leathina, what if Miss Leathina wakes up and faints again from seeing your ugly face.” Tanya Nina sat down with Adam who had taken a seat first and ate the boiled potatoes Adam had brought.

“You why?” tanya Adam started to suspect, “Don't tell me she was awake?!” Ask again.

Troy eventually diverted his attention from Leathina to Adam and Nina in turn. "So Miss Leathina woke up.” His words were filled with guilt.

“Keep why go back to sleep?” ask Adam.

“Because of panic I hit until fainting again.” Clearly Troy in a voice more like a whisper.

“You're stupid ya!” nina yelled angrily then threw a piece of boiled potato towards Troy.

“So suddenly Miss Leathina woke up for fear that I would spontaneously beat her unconscious again.” Definitely defending themselves.

“How about Miss Leathina starved to death from a day of not eating, it's been a day and a night she slept.” Nina then immediately approached Leathina and she shook Leathina's body to wake her up but Leathina did not wake up.

“What if his neck is broken?” Troy asked in fear because Leathina had also been beaten in the same section by Edward

“Then Mr. Ed, will directly finish you on the spot.” Answer Nina sarcas.

Adam put a freshly boiled potato on the peel and then moved closer to Leathina slowly he lifted his head to check his neck and saw the back of his neck turning blue from the punch.

“See what you've done, stupid!” Adam rubbed a little Leathina's hair showing Troy her now-blue neck.

“I'm sorry, so how should I?” ask Troy confused.

“You how else, we have to wait until he wakes up again Mr. Ed also has not returned.”

“Iya's right, it's been a long time he's out.”

“We should wait, for now do not do anything strange.” Nina then immediately took the medicine to apply the wound on Leathina's neck.

...

Edward finally arrived at the destination city and then immediately helped Mr. Cade to deliver goods to stores that would be the destination of delivery and help to transport goods down from the train.

“Thanks for the ride Mr. Cade,” Edward said after all the goods have been delivered.

“No problem.” Mr. Cade replied while calculating his payment without turning to Edward as he focused on the amount of payment.

“Master then I want to walk around for a while, do not go back to the village I look ya.”

“Yes, I'll be back in three hours. We can meet at the city gate, if you are late then I will stay.”

“ Won't be uncle then see you at the gate later,” Edward said kindly.

“Hei! Take this.” Suddenly Mr. Cade threw a few pieces of money at Edward.

“For what uncle?” edward was confused.

“First payment for your first job in town, you've helped me deliver and transport my luggage that's the salary I gave you.”

Edward stared at one piece of gold money and the other four were silver coins and then immediately left,”Thank you uncle.” He shouted as he walked away leaving Mr. Cade who was now resting beside his carriage.

Edward wandered around the city looking for information about the wealthiest man in the small town, trying to track down who was following him and who was looking for information on Leathina's whereabouts.

“I'll help lift madam.” Edward said kindly when he saw a middle-aged woman having trouble lifting a fruit box she was carrying.

The middle-aged woman was silent for a moment looking at Edward carefully then immediately smiled back, “I've never seen you wandering around this city son, you just came huh?” curious eyes can not be seen the face of Edward who now expression uncomfortable because it continues in the face.

“Iya Madam I just came today, I am from the village.” Answer Edward as he is.

“Then you must have come to look for a job, you are quite handsome and your body is nice to work with me? The job is not difficult you only need to accompany people who come to visit my store.”

“Ah? Hahaha!” Adam was a little surprised then followed by an awkward laugh to know what the woman he helped was thinking because since then his eyes were not separated from his face. “I don't intend to work like this Madam, but thank you for offering.” Edward replied immediately refusing not to want to get involved with her.

 “Hah! Too bad, even though you will definitely get a high salary if you want to come with me, fine until here son, thanks for the help.” Speaks kindly. “This take, as my thanks,” he gave Edward some money. “If you need a job you can come here anytime I will receive you.” He then blinked one eye at Edward.

“But madam if you can know, who are the people who often visit your place?”

“This is actually a secret but even though many people already know, loyal visitors in this place named Mr Baul, but why suddenly you ask?”

“No, I was just curious. Is Mr Baul the richest man in town?”

“Ummm, maybe you could say so but there are still other rich people as well just that the most famous is Mr. Baul because he likes to show off his wealth so given the nickname of the rich city, ah! You must have heard his nickname that's why you ask out of curiosity isn't it?”

“Iya Madam, people in the village often mention her name so I was curious.”

“Because you have helped me I will give you advice, do not deal with him there will be no good thing that will come if you can keep your distance from the family, although a lot of money bad attitude likes to demean others.” His whisper to Edward gave a short advice after that some men came out of the store that the woman was referring to and immediately transported the fruit that he brought in, “Don't forget to come if there is free time, yes, handsome.” His words again blinked one eye and then followed the people who brought his things.

“Thank you Madam I will definitely visit if you have free time.” Said Edward kindly, then looked at the building standing in front of him. There were several pairs of busy women and men spending time inside, making Edward shudder then head straight back to the main road.

“Soaring!” shouted a coachman who suddenly drove quickly in the crowd of pedestrians, he did not care about the people who were now scattered to each other for fear of being crushed by his train.

“Soaring!”

“Soaring!” again he gave a warning.

“Awas!”

Edward, who happened to be on the same road, immediately stepped aside and watched the rude coachman and caught a glimpse of who was sitting in it.

“Awas!” shouted the other pedestrians when they saw a small child who lived in the middle of the road that will be passed by the train could not move because it was already surprised by the arrival of the train that was speeding up.

“Akh!”

Edward reflexively jumped into the middle of the road and then rolled up to the side of the road while hugging the little boy who was standing in the middle of the road earlier.

“Hei! Son, are you okay?” Edward asked, then stood up and checked if there were any injuries on the child's body.

“Humm!”

“Is anyone sick?” ask Edward again.

“Hhuuuaaaa!” not long after that his cry broke while touching his knee.

“Ah! You got hurt in that part, huh?” edward muttered, seeing people start crowding Edward immediately got out of the way and moved to the side of the road so as not to disturb other pedestrians, he saw also the train that almost hit it suddenly stopped.

“You're okay son!” asked a woman who came through the crowd frantically holding the child that Edward helped earlier.

“Mother!!” he said it while he pleased.

“It's okay, just scratched, don't cry anymore, mom will treat it.” He ripped off his clothes and covered the wound on his knee.

Seeing that the child had finally met his mother and had taken care of her, Edward quietly left not wanting to disturb her anymore.

“Ah! Sir, wait a minute.” Holding the mother of the child she saved. “I am really grateful for saving my son, if you want I will give you a little money I have.” Politely said.

“No problem madam,” reject Edward politely. “Just please be careful going forward. Then I go first.” Said Edward then walking away but suddenly the crazy coachman who was driving the train came to him.

“If you want to apologize, apologize to the child if not immediately get out of my sight now.” Said Edward.

The coachman did not reply he just glanced at the little boy and his mother for a while then furrowed his brows and turned his gaze back towards Edward.

“What?!” ask Edward sarcas.

“I want to meet you!” he said he did not lose his sarcasm.

Edward furrowed his brows not understandingly then glanced at the mother of the child he had saved earlier who had now stood beside him.

“Ah! Sir, the lady he was referring to was the eldest son of Mr. Baul the rich man in this city.” The whisper told Edward. “He likes to collect handsome men Sir, you should not go.” His whisper again worried that Edward would actually be taken by force.

“If I don't want to, what will you do to me?!” Edward asked the coachman deliberately provoked his emotions to make him angry.

“You must have come from the village kan.” The coachman scoffs at Edward. “If you join then you will be paid a high salary every day.” He looked at Edward from top to bottom. “Seeing the shape of your body and your face my lady will definitely be happy.” Mumbled again.

“Then looking at your appearance and your ugly face, you and your lady will definitely be a compatible couple.” Reply Edward while looking from the foot to the face of the coachman.

“Argh! How dare you insult me.” His emotional speech then pulled the horse sprint hanging from his waist while he would lift his whip towards Edward down a woman from the carriage then walked over to Edward.

“What are you doing!” His speech made the coachman immediately undo his intentions and save the spark again.

“If you come with me I will give you a lot of money.” He made an offer.

Edward looked at the woman standing in front of him.

“She's the eldest daughter of Mr. Baul, her name is Miss Aleda. Failed on his marriage and returned to his father's house then had a hobby of collecting handsome men.” The whisper of the woman he had saved his son told Edward.

“Hei! You, what's so close to him in a minute he's mine! The impact of emotions when Edward listened more to the baby-beak woman who was beside him compared to him who had everything.

Quickly the middle-aged woman snorted by holding her son a little away from Edward out of fear.

“So you want to come with me or not?” ask again.

“Good, I'll come. ”Edward finally agreed.

“Danger if you follow them, once lapsed you will not be free again.” Intercept the mother of the child she helped out of concern for Edward

“It's okay Madam, I'll be fine you'd better come back soon and treat your child's wound before the wound gets worse.”

Edward finally followed Aleda up into the same horse carriage.

“Basic cheap, in the end want also.” The coachman booed when Edward was just about to board following Aleda into the train.

“What are you waiting for, quickly log in!” aleda was impatient.

Aleda led Edward to his residence, they were greeted by several servants. Aleda asked his servants to clean Edward's body and deliver him to his room.

“Please pass here Mr.” Said one of the servants assigned to help Edward clean himself up. Edward followed them through a door guarded by several guards in front of him.

“What room is this?” ask the servants.

At first no one answered but Edward then approached one of the waiters smiling kindly then repeated his question again.

“What room was it?” ask again.

“I-it's a room belonging to Mr. Baul, just in case you should never approach that door what else try to enter.”

“Ah! So that's the room yes.” said Edward understood.

“But why did you get involved with Miss Aleda?” tanyanya was curious about the small voice because she was afraid to be heard by the other servants.

“What else for?” Edward answered back asking.

"Are you so desperate for money to get involved with Miss Aleda?" ask again.

“Sorry yes you asked too many questions and it seems I do not have to answer right?” Edward said after entering a room, while the servants immediately prepared the toiletries for Edward.

Amidst the busyness of the servants Edward slowly approached and then hit his target until fainted as well as the other servants.

After taking care of the servants Edward again put on his face cover and robe out of the room and walked back to the door he had seen.

“Who are you?!” ask the guard standing at the door suspicious of Edward.

“Tak!”

Edward quickly knocked the two guards unconscious and opened the door and went inside.

“Who are you!” the surprised old man shouted when he saw Edward suddenly enter his room.

“You must be Mr. Baul yes.” muttered Edward, then looked around him.

There was nothing strange about the room that Edward entered just that there were too many antique and expensive collectibles in there.

“Who dare you come in here!”

“Guard!”

“Guard!”

“Guard!”

Shouted Mr. Baul in panic as Edward began to approach his collection and touch it, he was afraid if his collection was damaged or broken.

“It must be very expensive huh?” Edward murmured again while paying attention to a small urn with ornamental paintings on its surface.

“Do not! Do not touch it is very expensive and difficult to find!” panicked screams then ran towards Edward and reclaimed his beloved urn.

“Guard!”

“Guard!”

“Why did you guys let the thugs in here!” his screams of emotion continued to summon his guards to drag Edward out.

“Guarden on duty at the doorstep are sleeping, do not be noisy later they wake up.”

“Damn it! Who are you to dare ... ekh!”

“Shelf!”

Not yet had Mr. Baul finish his words Edward had first drawn his sword and swung it towards Mr. Baul making Mr. Baul panic and unconsciously release his expensive urn until it fell.

“Arg!” shouted Mr. Baul growled.

Quickly the tip of Edward's sword had moved to Mr. Baul's neck making him unable to wiggle anymore and immediately sat on his knees in fear.

“To– please don't kill me.” He said softly, “I beg you, sa-I will give you everything, money, gold, anything but don't kill me.”

“Really?!” ask Edward.

Mr. Baul immediately nodded in fear if Edward actually cut his neck.

“So I heard there were some of your guests who came from the kingdom then announced something, what did they announce?”

“I-that, they came from the kingdom to spread information regarding the gifts that would be given if it provided information or found a woman with the same traits as the Duke's missing daughter."

“They came just to spread the information about the gift not the information to search?” edward felt that the person who spread information was not part of Duke Leonard's men.

“Who are they?” ask Edward.

“They came by saying that they are emissaries from Duke Leonard and the kingdom to pass on the information to us.”

“You lied! Who are they?”

“Ekh! I also do not know sir, they come as messengers if you do not believe please open my drawer inside there is a letter that they show as an official order from the kingdom.

“Duke never asked for a notification letter of approval from the kingdom just to look for his daughter, he never involved his family's problems with the kingdom but if there was one then the kingdom was indeed looking for Leathna because Leathina was considered a hero for saving the kingdom.” Inner Edward, then look for the letter that was meant by Mr. Baul.

“This fake letter!” edward muttered after seeing the letter he had taken from the drawer.

“Where are they now?”

“I don't know, they came to ask me to make an official announcement here.”

"Where is the man I brought home?!"

"We don't know Nina."

...

“What's up!”

‘What happened?!”

“Why can you sleep in front of the door?!”

“There's intruders!”

There was a commotion outside the room, though, Aleda came looking for Edward who did not come to his room at the same time the soldier who happened to pass by on patrol found his partner who was standing guard at the door collapsed and then forced his way into Mr. Baul's room because knew there were intruders in their residence.

“It looks like outside a little messed up.” Edward murmured while looking at the door that has now been pounded from the outside by the soldiers.

“You!”

“I- yes?!” Answer Mr. Baul spontaneously.

“No one has ever come here!! tell your people that you accidentally locked the door from the inside, okay!”

“Ba-good.”

“If you try to chase after me then I will chase you back, and report to the Kingdom that you smuggled valuables into the kingdom without paying taxes on the kingdom,”

“Ekh! W-Where do you know?!”
