The Monsters!

The Monsters!
24. Tora city


In the horse carriage, Lora seemed to be amazed by the burly body that Diego had, especially very rarely did he see someone other than the knight had a tall and stocky body.


"Are we still a long time?" Diego asks who made Lora wake up from her daydream


"ah! Soon we'll be there, now we're halfway through." Obviously Lora


"Hm, by the way why did your uncle send people to kill you?" Ask Diego


"That's ... Because Uncle Drake wants the noble title we have, especially he is so ambitious to become the next leader of the Baron family" said Lora


"So that's it, so this is all a title fight, isn't it?" Ask Diego who's getting more convinced


Lora nodded, what Diego said was correct, especially with the condition of Lora's father who is currently dying, and there is evidence that the cause was poisoned.


"Sir, can I ask you a favor?"


"Is this about what happened?"


"Right, you look strong. So I need strength to help me!" Lora was full of confidence


Diego seems silent to think of Lora's words, honestly Diego does not want to be too involved in the affairs of the nobility, especially with the status of Diego who is just an ordinary person.


Lora who saw Diego silent as if she knew with doubt "I'll pay you until the problem is over, which means I hired you, how?"


"Alright then, but I'll work after finishing my clearance." Said Diego


"Ah about license plates, I can ask my people to take care of it for you, how?" Lora Rose


Hearing him would make Diego happily accept it, especially he did not need to go out of money to pay for license plate making.


"Are you serious?" Diego asked with a smile


"Of course, so later you'll just have to do a test to assess your rank, and the administrative matters I'll leave to my subordinates."


"All right! Then I'll accept it, and for the job you're offering as well I'll accept it until your problem is solved!" Diego shakes Lora's hand


Diego who heard it stared directly out the window, he was so amazed to see the magnificent city before him at this time, really like the fairy-tale city Diego had read.


"That's so lovely!" Praise Diego for admiration


Lora smiled when she saw Diego's look of admiration, but on the other hand Lora also seemed worried about the plan that her uncle would do after this, especially with Lora's good condition.

The horse-drawn carriage continued to move and headed east which was where the Baron family lived, the family that controlled the city today.


Some people who saw the horse carriage passing by immediately gave their greetings, they knew that it was the horse carriage of the Baron family seen from the symbol of nobility at its door.


After arriving in front of the Baron's luxurious mansion, several servants appear to be lined up to welcome Lora's arrival, besides being seen Grey and Lora's Mother, Kara.


Lora immediately got off her carriage, while Diego immediately followed and stood right behind Lora.


"Welcome Back, Lora Baron!" Sapa Grey to his daughter


"Welcome back, my dear!" Kara Greetings


Lora smiled as her parents greeted her, but a glimpse of Lora's dislike for her mother.


Not without reason Lora hated her own mother, but for a reason, plus Lora also saw the uncle from upstairs who looked at her hatefully.


"Who is he, Lora?" Grey looked at Diego


"Include me, it's Gin. The one who from now on will be my bodyguard, Father." Obviously Lora


"Alright, the more you go in first it's not nice if we just stand here" Grey asked


Lora immediately stepped in following the steps of her family, she herself could clearly look into the dislike eyes of the servants of this house.


But Lora did not care and ignored him, he was more concerned about his father's current condition which looks very bad with pale look and always coughs endlessly.
