Miss Most Perfect Beauty
Complicated
At the inn
“Gosh how can this happen?”
When she undressed the little boy for him to treat, Scarlesia was surprised by his body full of bruises.
“What's up?” ask Andreas to come to him.
“It looks like this kid was tortured. Look at his bruises but I'll heal him first because I think he's also in pain because of these wounds,”
Scarlesia healed him first, all the wounds all over the child disappeared. Not long after, the little boy slowly opened his eyes and found Scarlesia nearby.
“Are you okay now?”
Scarlesia's soft voice touched her hearing, she felt peaceful as soon as she saw Scarlesia's face. However, he also felt shocked by Scarlesia's existence and instantly woke up from his sleep. His eyes turned around to see where he was but he did not know where he was now.
“Why can I be here?” tanyanya's confused.
“Do you not remember? You passed out and I brought you here. Now we are at one of the inns in this city,” replied Scarlesia explained to him.
“PLEASE! Please help me brother. I beg you,” said the boy who suddenly prostrated asking Scarlesia for help.
“Tell me what happened?”
Then the little boy told Scarlesia everything that he was from one of the orphanages. Children who are in the orphanage every month are sent out on the grounds that there are families who want to adopt them. But apparently that's not the real reason, the children were used as a black witch's fall.
The child in front of him is now a child who today wants to be sent as a collision but he managed to escape but his sister is in danger. The black magicians managed to bring his sister, and he ran away to find someone who could help his sister and friends in the orphanage.
“But why are you asking me for help? Why not ask the knight for help?”
“Because I can see a great power enveloping my sister, that's why I asked my sister for help. I beg you please my sister and friends,” please shed tears.
“What's your name?” ask Scarlesia.
“My name is Theo,”
“Alright Theo, I'll help you. But I know there's something else you're still keeping, right?” terka Scarlesia's.
Theo squeezed his fingers, his head he bowed. His expression looked hesitant as if what he was about to say was something quite big. Then he dared himself to look Scarlesia in the eye and prepared to tell her.
“S-I don't know if brother will trust me but I heard it directly from the witch who took away the orphanage's children. They said that we are a tumblr for the black magic queen that has been prepared directly by the empress,” she explained with a trembling body.
“Enjoy? Turns out that's how she got the support of the black magician? Haha I am getting furious because wherever I go there is always danger caused by the empress,” furious clenched her right hand.
“What brother is not surprised? Not that in this empire everyone likes the empress?”
“But I belong to the class of people who hate him so you don't have to worry about telling me,” Scarlesia said with a faint smile.
“Of course. Andreas, please call the others here,” Scarlesia ordered Andreas.
Then Louis, Oliver, Zenon, and Elios went into the room.
“Why Sia?” ask Oliver.
“It looks like we have a pretty complicated job this time,”
Scarlesia explained everything to them about what happened to Theo as well as the other orphanage children. Of course their response was the same as Scarlesia, they were furious with the empress to the point that Zenon wanted to kill her right now. However, Scarlesia calmed them down so as not to get too emotional because she thought there was no time to get angry now.
“Nah Theo we will help you but before that you have to tell me in detail about the wounds on your body. I know it's not as simple as it looks,” Scarlesia said introgating Theo.
“Actually we are often tortured by orphanage administrators, we are often fed improper food even when we are sick we are not treated properly. We want to ask for help to Marquess Javar as the noble in charge of the orphanage but it's useless because he does not care about us who will end up as a victim,” Beber Theo.
Scarlesia glanced at Theo's extremely thin-dry body, she did look like she was not given a decent meal. This time Scarlesia gets angrier with what Marquess Javar is doing, she lets the orphanage caretaker do the corruption as she pleases and ignores the children who ask her for help.
“Marquess Javar huh? He was indeed the most loyal subordinate of the empress. Looks like the catch this time will be bigger than usual,” thought Scarlesia.
“It can't be left any longer otherwise the other children will be its victims. This is the queen's act that's why no one suspects her. Oliver, do you know anything about black magicians?” ask Scarlesia.
“Black magic is a forbidden magic that uses the power of black demons, with another meaning these witches contract with black demons to gain more power. But this collision problem is another problem, I've heard the black witch queen has a very pretty face. Her beauty she got from these bumps,” explains Oliver.
“Black devil? So in this world there are two demons namely white devil and black devil?”
“Yes, if you want to know more it is better to explain by Elios alone,” replied Oliver throwing an explanation at Elios.
“Let me explain, there used to be only white demons in this world. But, due to the internal feud that ensued the demon finally split into two clans namely the white demon clan and the black demon clan. At first they were the same as us but they got the power from the god of darkness. It happened more than 2000 years ago,”
“God of darkness? Why does it sound so complicated?” thought.
“So in other words this black devil is his evil version of the white devil?”
“True, we white demons live a quiet life without harming humans and seclude ourselves from human life. While these black demons were happy to mess up in human life, they offered to forge a contract with humans to make humans feud each other and eventually create a sea of blood. White devils often try to stop them but it is useless that they always hide in places we do not know,” Elios explained.
“Isn't our opponent this time a little complicated?” ask Scarlesia.
“Who said? I've defeated many black demons who tried to harm me. Some time ago I met them even though I came back injured but that doesn't mean they are stronger than me. But our opponent this time is just an ordinary human being who gained a bit of power from the black demons so what should we fear?” Zenon.
“Then I have also heard that these black magic users sacrifice their souls to be able to get great power from the black demons but that does not mean they can defeat us easily,” Louis added.
“True Sia, however I'm sure we are stronger than them. So you don't have to worry,” timpal Andreas.
“It looks like now I don't have to worry anymore,”
