The Lost Prince
CHAPTER 6 FIGHTS WITH TWO MARKETPLACES

The sun is getting higher up the horizon. The fierce rays were very hot as if to burn all over Pendar City, one of the cities in the Amerta Kingdom located near the coast. The air in the town near the coast is getting hotter. Time is now showing almost noon.

It looks like the Little Physician is walking down the city road which is still crowded even though the air is very hot. He was already quite far away from Pendar Port. It has been far enough and long left the entourage of Princess Aneska who had somehow been where it is now.

Actually he was invited to join the king's daughter's entourage. But the boy refused even though Aliesha insisted. But Servant Galina pretty much gave him money as a wage to treat the Princess. In addition, he also got quite a lot of money from wealthy businessmen, although not as much as given by Galina Servants. So you could say now he has a lot of money. A good start to the journey.

Right now the healer boy had already bought the items he needed. A new, better-modeled bag, a bag for the money, two sets of clothes, a few bottles for the medicine container, and a few other items, including shoes. Lodging has also been obtained which also doubles the restaurant. It's on the edge of town, as he wants.

After a short break, he took a shower. Continue to replace her torn clothes in some parts with one of the clothes she just bought. Replacing his buttocks with shoes that he had bought earlier. Only then did it go downstairs for lunch. Don't forget to bring some money.

The boy was done filling his stomach. After paying for his food, he went out and wanted to see the state of this fairly densely populated city. He intended to stay a few days in this city, trying his luck as a little healer.

Actually, he still lacks confidence. Because, the first time he wanted to treat his patients, he was immediately doubted. The reason is because he is a child. Need to convince the old man to believe. They don't fully believe it either. Fortunately, he was good at convincing people. But what's wrong he tried his luck in this city that is still very foreign to him.

Not long ago he strolled accidentally his pair of dark black eyes caught a small boy dressed in shabby brown running in the middle of a human crowd. Sometimes the boy whose head was wrapped in a dull red cloth looked behind him while running. It seems the boy is being chased.

And it's true. About three spears behind him looked like two teenage boys were also running in the middle of the crowd chasing him. But due to the large number of people passing by, the two teenage boys were somewhat hampered in their pursuit.

★☆★☆

The boy who seemed to be an 8-9 year old boy continued to run non-stop. Her cute face was dirty, getting dirty due to the sweat that soaked her face. His breath seems to be burning. But he kept running. Again he looked back. The two teenage boys just chased after him, and got closer to him.

He subconsciously ran across the rather small, silent road. Even the road was dead end. Because at the end of the road there is a stone wall that is quite high. He finally stopped when he reached the end of the road.

"Hehehe...! Now you can't run anymore, boy," suddenly a grinning voice sounded that made him surprised instead of playing.

He immediately faced backwards. And two of his pursuers had already stood about two spears from where he stood. The two teenage boys seemed to grin while chuckling as they stepped slowly closer to him.

Her dirty cute face instantly changed pias. Fear instantly ambushed him mercilessly. His trembling body involuntarily retreated slowly backwards. But before long he screeched a little because his back was directly stuck to the stone wall. The two teenagers approached him.

"You, you want to be good and find it hard!" snapped the man standing to the left of the huff. His skin was black, his face ugly, let alone snubbed. He was dressed in green.

"Do you want to be taken well or forcibly?" asked the other man with a smile. His face is not too ugly. Her clothes are blue.

"Go!" the boy shouted as if he had strength in the midst of his fear. "I don't want to go with you anymore!"

"Suckers! Apparently you asked to be taken by force!" growled green shirt man. "Come on, Galih, we'll drag this fucking boy!"

The man named Galih chuckled more and more at the command. Quickly stepped up to the boy following his friend. Keep holding both hands of the dirty-faced boy firmly. The green man on the left hand, his friend on the right. Then they forced the boy to follow them.

"Let go! Release!" shouted the boy loudly while thrashing. "Go you! I don't want to come with you!"

The two teenage boys were willing to heed the boy's screams. They continued to forcefully pull the boy who kept thrashing while screaming.

"Do you have no other job than to bully people?"

Suddenly a voice was not too loud but cold. The two teenage boys instantly stopped their work, continuing to look at the source of the shocking voice. The brown-clothed boy also looked at the source of the voice.

There, about four spears apart, stood a ten-year-old boy. His long sleeves were dark red. Her hair was a little long, dark black. As dark as the color of his eyes that stared intently at the two jerk men as his hands folded in front of his chest. His style is like an adult. Well, his thoughts were indeed mature even though his body was still a child. He is the Little Physician.

"Well! Who do I think I am?" decak upset the green-clothed man with a disdainful attitude. His hand still held the hand of the brown-clothed boy. "It's a fucking kid!"

"Kent! It seems like this boy is still new to this city," said Galih in a cynical tone, "so that he dares to interrupt our fun."

"Even though I am new to this city," said the Little Physician as he slowly approached Kent and Galih's place, "it does not mean that I let your bad pleasure go."

"It's also the guts of this boy, Kent," said Galih in a cynical tone as he continued to stare at the boy. His thick lips still revealed a sly smile.

"I want to see how big his guts are," infuriated Kent who had gone up in blood. This man was indeed the least able to endure emotions. Moreover, the Little Physician has disrupted his work.

★☆★☆

With a swift movement Kent attacked the Little Physician whose standing position was four steps away from him. His right fist accelerated quickly ready to hit the boy in the face. While the Little Physician remained calm in his place, showing no reaction that he would dodge.

But soon jotosan Kent face to his face, quickly his body slightly tilted to the left while his left foot shifted slightly forward. Along with that his right hand caught Kent's right hand. Then while pulling Kent's hand back, his right knee moved up rapidly. And mercilessly hit Kent's hull.

Bughk

"Ugh...!"

Kent immediately lined up backwards while complaining of being restrained. And while Kent was lined up, the Little Physician twisted his body almost in a circle while his left leg lifted and his body slightly lowered to the back. Then the left foot was drifting rapidly toward the left side of Kent's head.

Because the attack was so quick and sudden. Plus he was still so far away that he lost his concentration. So the left foot of the Little Physician violently and decisively hit the left side of Kent's head.

The desss!

"Akh...!"

While the Little Physician, had not had a long break, Galih took part. With a quick movement he attacked the boy, sending out back-to-back punches and kicks. It would still be that the healer boy could fend it off easily.

On one occasion the Little Physician could attack. And the boy's attack left Galih quite overwhelmed. He did not expect the healer boy already had great silat science at a relatively young age.

Kent is actually better than Galih. But because Kent underestimated his opponent so much that he paid less attention to his defense. So that in two waves he has fallen.

The left fist of the Little Physician pointed quickly at Galih's face for the umpteenth time. Because Galih's right hand was still numb, it was forced to repel the attack with the left hand while the right leg was thrown backwards one step.

But the attack was a hoax attack. Because the Little Physician quickly withdrew his attack. So Galih just fended off the wind. And almost simultaneously the healer boy drew an attack, his right leg lifted to perform a successive kick, on the left rib Galih, continuing to follow the right side of his head. And both attacks hit the target hard and hard.

Deghk!

The desss!

"Ukh...! Akh...!"

I heard Galih complaining about being held back twice. Along with his body lined to the left side. The Little Physician did not stop there. While Galih was lined up, his left leg lifted and then pushed up Galih's chest. So that it is no longer lined up, but immediately fell backward while screaming small.

Meanwhile, Kent has risen. But his head was still dizzy from the kick of the Little Physician and his stomach was still nauseous. To hold another attack was impossible. Finally, by suppressing his embarrassment he left this place. Do not forget to invite Galih whose fate is also the same as him.

"We're not done yet, Goddamn kid!" threaten Kent before leaving this place.

With a bit of fatigue Kent and Galih ran, like wanting to quickly leave the place that made them embarrassed mixed with annoyance. While the boy in brown clothes was still there looking at them until they disappeared from a distance.

★☆★☆

After Kent and Galih had almost disappeared from a distance, the Little Physician turned to look at the dirty-faced boy who was still standing leaning against the wall. After approaching him, he continued to ask.

"Are you okay, brother?"

The boy did not answer. After staring at the departure of the two delinquents of the market, it now turned to staring intently at the Little Physician two steps ahead of him. His gaze was full of probing and it was as if seeing the Little Physician was his enemy. But rather, he was just being cautious and cautious. And it seems like she always behaves so with people she doesn't know.

But the healer boy replied to the unfriendly attitude of the boy with a calm face while smiling full of friendship.

"My name is Dhafin" said the Little Physician, introducing himself after a long time the boy did not answer his question. "Whose name?"

Again the boy did not answer. He just kept staring at the healer boy who turned out to be named Dhafin full of suspicion. But Dhafin was not offended. He remains friendly and friendly environment.

"Farrel," finally came out also the voice of the boy calling his name. "My name is Farrel."

Hearing Farrel introduce his name, Dhafin immediately smiled in surprise. He knew this boy was a girl even though he dressed up as a boy. Why did this boy dress up as a boy and introduce himself as Farrel?"

But Dhafin did not want to think too much about it, let Farrel himself answer. And his expression of astonishment was only for a moment. After that, he returned to his usual expression.

But it looks like Farrel can guess that Dhafin already knows. Hence immediately smiling innocently, like a person caught up and said.

"Sir Dhafin is great, knowing that I'm not a man."

Dhafin just laughed softly at Farrel's words. In his heart he recognized Farrel's intelligence in guessing people's expressions. Then he took Farrell away from this place.

"Who were those two, Farrel?" dhafin asked curiously as they walked.

"The two men were market delinquents" Farrel said. "They and some of his friends gathered little children like me to be beggars. As a result of begging those who took all, we were fed only. That's not always."

"It's an act of crime" Dhafin commented. "Why doesn't anyone report to city security."

"Sir..," said Farrel suddenly disconnected his speech. "Eh... Can I call you brother?"

"If you think I'm older than you, you may."

"Sir Dhafin," he continued, "a poor man like me who pays attention."

Dhafin just nodded at Farrel's sad words. Maybe that's the life of the city people. Not caring about the situation of others. They care more about themselves.

"Do you want to know why I dress like this guy?" ask Farrel as if asking for permission.

"Yes, kebapa?"

"I've actually been captured by people who trafficked humans. But I managed to escape. So that I would not be arrested again, then from that day on I changed all my appearance. Be what it is today, a beggar boy's makeup."

Dhafin and Farrell continued to talk while walking. The two children were already close to each other. Perhaps the same fate brought them together. Same with kara. Dhafin takes Farrel to his inn. Farrel agreed. Because he believes Dhafin is a good person, not a pretender-good con man, pretending to care.
