Chapter 37
37 “Discovery Of A Secret”
Eleanora’s POV ~
‘What the hell is this kid saying? Who wants to marry her brother?’
“The cage is made of iron, i can’t break it. Please help me sister!”
Although i couldn’t see her face, but all i could see was her black eyes.
“Please help me sister! My brother will give you whatever you want if you help me!”
“...”
I was really speechless because of this little girls words. Her brother must have a lot of pursuers thus she thinks every girl wants her brother.
She is trying to tempt me with her unknown brothet to make me help her to escape.
I sighed and stopped running my head as what her identity has got anything to do with me?
.....
She was wearing a pink hoodie like cloak, which didn’t seem cheep to me.
But why did they had to cage her moreover at so high?
I swing the magic sword in my hands, which was given to me by Dominic in case of emergency and with a loud clacking sound, the door of the cage fall down.
‘If there’s a person begging to be saved infront of me, i can’t ignore them.’
“Come, Jump down. Sister will catch you.”
I raised my hands as i asked her to jump down with a smile. She looked at me with a eyes of admiration and then jumped down.
She fall on my arms and wrapped her hands around my shoulders and leg around my waist.
But then i was shocked. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺
When she jumped down, her cloak fall and now that i saw her with my own eyes, i couldn’t believe it.
She has red hair and black eyes! She is a Richardo!
The daughter of the Duke Richardo of south who rarely participated or got involved in imperial politics.
At the same time, The Duke Richardo from my past flashed in my mind. He had believed that i was innocent.
So that person must be this little girls brother now, right?
But i got more surprised to see that she has a fury tail and ears?
A wolf?
I-Is this possible?
“Thank you for saving me pretty sister! I will make sure you marry my brother and be my sister in law!”
I was still shocked as i accidentally found out the secret of the Richardo’s!
So instead of magic powers, they are blessed with a complete new mankind?
But why are they hiding?
I was still in daze, when the little girl suddenly bite my shoulder with her sharp teath and i hissed in pain.
“Why did you bite me?”
I asked and she jumped down from my embrace.
“Please forgive me, sister. I did it so that i can remember your taste and scent, in this way i can find you again!”
And then she ran away.
My appearance is fake and i don’t think she can find me again.
If am not wrong then she should be the current heir Alberto Dion Richardo’s hidden little sister, Diana Richardo, who never came to the society world.
The reason was unknown to everyone, but now i think know why.
A little girl getting caged, abused and she can even be sexually harassed... anyone who will suffer this can’t lead a normal life.
I should probably go and find Dominic and Liana now.
...
On the other hand, Liana and Dominic was horrified to see the scene infront of them.
Infront of them was a big cell where more then hundred girls was held captive.
They were stinking as they couldn’t take bath properly.
They was also very skinny, like bones could be seen in if you cut their flesh.
Liana’s face become pale as she rushed toward the cell.
Dominic helped her to broke the cell lock with his magic and Liana’s eyes kept searching for her sister.
“Sister! Where are you? Linnie is here! Sister!”
And then she finally spotted a person with dark brown hair and light brown eyes, who was close to be a skeleton.
She slowly raised up as she looked into Liana’s eyes.
“L-Linnie?” She tried to touch her face but then stopped thinking she was dirty.
But Liana just took her hand and put it on her cheeks.
“Yes, sister. I finally found you!”
“It’s dirty, Linnie...” Jennie tried to take away her hands but Liana caught it firmly.
“It’s not, it’s still warm like before.”
Dominic was staring at Liana with deep emotions.
He never thought anyone would be willing to go this far just because a sister who once gave her a bread.
Dominic was going to sent a magic signal to Eleanora when the dungeon gate was burst open and the other slaves started to yell in horror.
Dominic hide at a corner beside the two sisters, where no one could see him.
“What’s so noise about? This dungeon is spreading disease. So clean everything after taking the good ones for tonight.” Viscount Willem ordered the guards that came with him.
“Understood.” The aid replied as he unleash his magic aura.
“Sir! Please don’t kill me, Am not sick!”
“Sir, I can still work!”
“Please, Spare me!”
“Aaah!”
The girls was yelling and Jennie started to tremble.
“Linnie, Run! Run away! They will kill you!”
“N-No! Am not gonna leave you alone again!”
Dominic was horrified by the scene infront of him. Because he has never imagined a scene like this.
But Liana wasn’t horrified but rather disgusted by this.
She stood up and about to yell when Dominic caught her mouth and pulled her towards him.
“Lady Liana, Please calm down. He is the Duke Ravens aid, as well-known and highly revered viscount willem. We can’t expose us!”
“Let’s try to sneak out and contact Eleanora first!”
Dominic tried to calm Liana down, but tears was kept flowing out from her eyes.
A guard was about to kill a slave when suddenly his magic was blocked by another magic.
Then a sharp sword pierced through his chest and killed the guard.
Everyone was shocked as it was not a normal sword but rather a sword which was made from ice!
