The Hated Savior
CHAPTER 46

Ditanah diterupur, tree trunks have been cut down decorate each side and the branches scattered carelessly with leaves that have withered and some have become brown color.

The smell of tree sap and rotting leaves floating in the air made a scent that made anyone want to let out their entrails. The slaves looked tired but were forced to continue working.

They wanted to rest but the whip immediately kissed their dirty backs, some of the soldiers kept watch over the slaves and others still took care of a troublesome little girl.

The sound of the clanking of swords rang out in the dark afternoon, the soldiers who attacked the girl started to get exhausted but had to get the girl to satisfy their enraged master.

Aquila did not feel tired but looked lazy to serve the people who wanted to catch him. "It's uncle, it's better to stop. You're tired of playing with me." Aquila said attention-grabbing.

"Silence you little boy....!!!" Said one of the soldiers while swinging his sword towards Aquila. But it was avoided very quickly by Aquila.

"Already uncle. I'll be back tomorrow....." Aquila said while activating the telepotation and then disappeared with the blink of an eye.

"Useless......!!!!! Why would I hire you if it just embarrassed me. I've spent a lot of money, but what do you give me...???!!" The nobleman began to furiously vent his frustration to his hired soldiers from the kingdom and did not hesitate to slap, hit or kick them cruelly.

But all of them can only remain silent without being able to resist, it is true that they were hired by their king to add to the coffers of money and hoard wealth.

Aquila who saw from the top of the tree covered by dense leaves to hide his body to be unknown to those who wanted to capture him.

Minami and Leave are very confused and frightened because their lady has not returned from touring, the magical beasts also help them to look for Aquila who disappeared from day to night.

While the two pillars did not know that the person he considered as brother had disappeared because they could not open their eyes and lost their consciousness to adjust the energy of the other pillar.

Anxious face looks real on Leave's face, and Minami is still looking for Aquila and assisted by another magical beast. Leave was unable to join the search for Aquila because the two pillars had not yet awakened from his sleep.

"Miss.....Missy....." Shouted a squirrel with a tail resembling a sunflower that bloomed from behind lush trees. Then jumped down in front of the worried Leave.

"Miss, I saw huh..." He said with intermittent and hunting breath.

"Please yourself, then speak." Leave's voice calmed the panting squirrel.

"I saw that Miss Messiah was in Roa's forest, and was fighting with the man who destroyed our house." Said the flower squirrel with disjointed.

"Where? Take me to my non-place right now!" Pinta Leave with passion.

The flower squirrel who still calms his breath immediately choked with the request of Leave who wants to catch up with the Messiah. "Please wait a minute..."Said the flower squirrel while breathing deeply.

"...."

"Okay, come follow me." The squirrel said the flower then climbed up a tree and then jumped from the tree branch to another branch. Leave followed the flower squirrel from behind and noticed the surroundings.

Some time has passed but they have not reached the place where the flower squirrels go.

"Is it far away?" Ask Leave worriedly.

"Not too far, miss, please be patient." The flower squirrel's pint gives understanding.

"All right." Leave said and they continued through the branches of the tree continuously. Then the two of them arrived where there was a scattered log and several holes that were impregnated on the ground indicating that there was a previous battle.

"I don't know, when I found out that Miss Messiah was fighting I went right back to tell the lady." Said the flower squirrel with guilt.

"What if my non-me gets caught by them? What am I supposed to do?" Leave in a panic.

"Caught by who?" A voice immediately greeted Leave's panicked words.

Leave immediately looked for the source of the voice he was very familiar with. From behind the lush foliage appeared a girl they had been looking for from noon until now. Leave immediately jumped where Aquila was and directly hugged her tightly.

"Miss, I'm so worried that Miss is okay." Said Leave amidst that tight embrace. Aquila could only pat Leave's shoulder slowly.

"I'm okay, brother. Look, there's nothing less than me." Aquila's words calmed the trembling Leave.

"Really, did Miss just fight with that human?" Ask Leave while letting go of their embrace.

"No, I'm just playing." Aquila said with a sweet smile.

"Miss, next time don't go alone. We're all scared, ladies." Leave advised but ignored by Aquila.

"I'm not a little kid, brother, I'm just lost." Aquila said as she expanded her cheeks.

Neglected flower squirrels can only stand still and play with tree branches making a hard tree-skinned circle.

"Alright, next time if the lady wants to go around, the lady must be with me or Minami. It could be with Mr. Shiro or Mr. Rugiel." Leave gave me another piece of advice.

"Okay my beautiful sister, let's just go home. I was so hungry for a game with them. And tomorrow I'll make a game for them." Aquila said with a mysterious smile.

"Alright lady, come on squirrel you should go home too." Take Leave, then the three of them began to leave the place and return to where the others were.

The journey they went on was dark and only the moonlight allowed them to see the road with a dim light. And Aquila grew bored because the distance traveled was far more than she had lost before.

"Is it far away, Leave?"

"Stay far away, miss, in about two hours we'll be there." Leave answered while running and the flower squirrel hitchhiked on Leave's back.

"When I'm lost it feels like time is running fast, but now why is it so long?" Aquila said as she looked around.

"Maybe the lady ran so fast that she didn't see the surroundings." Said Leave while continuing to run and observe the tree that had been passed.

"It's possible, brother, because I was running very fast and didn't see the surroundings. When I stopped all I saw was a tree uprooted with a fat man with a face full of monkey-like hair." Aquila recounts an encounter with a nobleman with a large belly and a full face.

"Miss isn't good at talking about people badly." Tegur Leave who listened to Aquila's story.

"That's right, brother. And there were many people who were made slaves. I'm confused why there should be slaves aren't they both human?" Ask Aquila in wonder.

"Miss, I don't know either. Better just ask Mr. Shiro or Minami. They know more about this world than we do." Said Leave who did not know anything.

"yes too. Come on, sister Leave is faster...!!!" Shouted Aquila excited and Leave also increase the speed of running and make squirrel flowers overwhelmed to look for handling.
