The King of Hell System
Stronghold Chapter 18

Wen watched Mia who was eating greedily. He tried to ask Glenn where this strange little girl came from. But Glenn answered his question in no apparent way. So he felt a little upset.

"Hey, where are you from?" ask Wen.

Mia did not answer. He simply blinked his eyes and refocused on his food. At that time Mia was busy taking the third portion and started eating again.

"You know it's impolite to ignore an older person's questions? And it's rude to also sneak into someone else's house like that" Wen grumbled.

But Mia ignored him. So he turned to look at Glenn with glaring eyes. "How did you meet this little girl?"

Glenn sculpted. He wanted to answer 'do not remember', but it was impossible. But he also couldn't say that he was taking that scary little girl off the streets. "I met him by accident and saved him from the thugs" Glenn replied lying.

Mia and Wen immediately glared at him simultaneously.

"How can you fight a thug with a sickly body condition like this?" Wen frowned in disbelief

.

"Hum, hum" Mia nodded her head, agreeing with Wen's statement.

"Em, my friend was with me at the time. He was a security who happened to be on patrol and he was very good at fighting" Glenn said his lie again nervously. Then he looked at Mia while blinking his eyes, telling the little girl to be quiet.

Mia opened her mouth. He was completely shocked by Glenn's lying talent. "That's a lie. This uncle took me to his house when I was alone on the street" Mia opened her mouth. His voice echoed in that small, silent room.

"What?" exclaimed Wen in disbelief.

Glenn simply held his head and shook his head weakly. "That's not what you think it is. I saw him alone on the street and it was dangerous. So I took her to the apartment to eat"

"Eat?" Wen's eyes grew increasingly glared. "You can see he's a schoolboy? He is still underage. He probably ran away from home. You should call the police or call his parents. How can you take him to your place? If others find out, you'll be considered a criminal" Wen blabbed. "Or do you really have dirty thoughts about it?"

"That's not true" Glenn quickly defended himself. "I just wanted to help him because it was late and he was alone on the streets. I also asked her where she lived and her house, but she didn't respond to me at all"

Wen looked at Mia. "Why did you run away from home? Where are your parents? You should have gone back to your house. Your parents will be very worried about you. How can you wander alone in the streets? You know that's dangerous? What if something goes wrong and you get kidnapped?" this time he was talking to Mia.

Mia ignored him and continued eating. Mia's indifferent attitude made Wen even more upset.

"You look. He's always been like that" Glenn continued.

Wen stopped babbling. He observed the uniform Mia was wearing. Then he looked at the confused school emblem that was on his uniform. "The emblem is very familiar." he said later while trying to dig up his old memories. "I think I know your school"

Hearing Wen's words, Mia gasped in shock.

Gulp! He swallowed his last rice. Then he turned around quickly and jumped towards the window.

"What are you doing?" Wen panicked, trying to prevent her from jumping. But late. Wen looked down. Then he could see Mia jumping down smoothly as if the height of the second floor was nothing to him. Then the little girl ran away quickly and disappeared from his sight.

"How is it possible.this is the second floor" muttered Wen in disbelief.

"You see? That little girl is so weird. He must be very good at sports. I was also as shocked as you were when I found out about his strength" Of course Glenn was shocked when he saw Mia's terrible status.

(Mission detected. Take Wen back to the apartment)

"It was very night. I'll take you home" Glenn said directly.

Hearing the word 'thugs', Wen felt a little anxious. "Thank you..."

So Glenn took his bike and hugged the beautiful woman.

"You said you knew Mia's school?" Glenn asked while pedaling his bicycle.

"So, that naughty girl's name is Mia huh.." muttered Wen. "Yes." she said in an uncomfortable tone.

Glenn was aware of Wen's strange attitude. He's getting confused. "Why? Did something happen to that little girl's school?"

"It's not like that" Wen shook his head. "He's from Stronghold"

Glenn was trying to remember the school by the name of Stronghold in this city. And he can't remember. "I know there's no school called Stronghold in this town?"

"He's not from this town" Wen replied. "He's from the capital"

"Oh..." Glenn nodded in understanding. So Stronghold is one of the schools in the capital. Mia's status was not normal.

Hearing Glenn's flat response, Wen felt strange. "You don't know Stronghold's school in the capital?"

Glenn scratched his head. "I don't know." she replied. He did not get any information from outside the city from the old memories of this body.

"Huh..." Wen sighed. Then he started explaining about that school called Stronghold. The school is one of the most famous schools in the capital. The students there are born with a strong physique and have a high talent in the field of sports. They always represent countries in international competitions with other countries. Then some of them also managed to become national soldiers and special units of the state.

"Next to note that not everyone can get into that school. Almost all of the disciples there were important people from the capital" he added. "The face of the girl is also not foreign. It seems I've met him but I don't remember. Maybe he comes from one of the big families"

"Why do you understand the situation in the capital? You've lived there before?" ask Glenn.

Wen jerks. "Never" he replied awkwardly while laughing. "I've only read the news on the internet before" he continued.

"I see.." but of course Glenn couldn't believe it. She knew Wen was hiding something, but she did not ask any further. "By the way do you know how to sell calligraphy writing ?" Glenn immediately changed the topic.

"I don't know too much about calligraphy" Wen replied. But he thought of something. "But I have one piece of information that might be useful to you. Sunday there will be an art exhibition in the city hall. Every artist comes there to sell their services. You can sell your calligraphy services in that place"

Glenn's eyes immediately sparkled.

"If you're lucky, you can get rich customers who pay you more" he continued.

"Thank you" Glenn said solemnly.

"No problem" Wen replied timidly. "At hand. Thank you for driving me" Wen said. He jumped down and Glenn had not even stopped his paddling.

(WALL! Congratulations sir managed to escort Wen back to the apartment. Agility +1)

Arriving at home, Glenn searched for information about the art exhibition and he found it. Then he registered as an artist who participated in the event by filling out a registration form. After finishing filling it up, Glenn felt relieved. He'll make money at this fair. He wished his luck good and he got a lot of rich buyers.

Then he accidentally saw something familiar under the website of the exhibition. There are many sponsorship logos underneath. And one of them is the emblem of the Stronghold school. Glenn immediately remembered the famous school. He also searched for information about Stronghold school on the internet and he found a lot. He read a few articles and he felt quite amazed. He was sure that there were a lot of small monsters in that school.

But Glenn still did not understand why Mia could be in this small town. Then the school was also related to the upcoming art exhibition.

"Don't he come to this town because of this art fair?" Glenn was still thinking about the purpose of Mia coming to this city.
