The Seven Deadly Child
262 - Robbery
*Braakk….!!!
"Hurry out of the train!"
On one of the main trade routes of the Arid Blood Desert, a group of Bandits were launching the action. They stopped a passing merchant train.
"Please forgive us! Please don't kill us! Just take all my merchandise and property, but please let go of my family!" Said a man. His body trembled violently in fear, stepping out from inside the carriage while tightly hugging his wife and daughter.
Around the trading carriage itself, there were currently several lifeless bodies scattered about. These headless bodies were none other than the mercenary soldiers that the merchant had previously hired to protect his merchant carriage convoy. These people had to accept the tragic fate of dying in such a terrible way because the trade train they were protecting, had to be intercepted by a group of extremely powerful ruthless Bandits.
"Hmmmm.. Old man, you are really lucky, at your old age, how could you be blessed with such a beautiful wife!" Said one of the bandits. His eyes wildly stared at the merchant's wife.
Feeling himself getting a wild look from the bandits in front of him, the body of the merchant's wife now increasingly shuddered in fear, he hugged his daughter tightly, and began to immerse his teary face on the husband's chest.
"Ohhh.. Boss! In addition to a beautiful wife, this old man is also blessed with a very charming daughter! Look at that little girl! Let her grow a few more years, then she will become a very beautiful woman!" Said one of the other bandits. He was immediately greeted with a nod of agreement by his friends.
Now they all began to look wildly at the merchant's daughter who was now crying so much in her mother's arms. He became very frightened upon hearing the bandits chatter.
"Mr Bandit! Please have mercy from you! Just take all my treasure! And let us get out of here!" Said the merchant. In desperation. He tried to ask for mercy.
*Slaaaass.hh…!!!
*Thud….!
However, as soon as the merchant finished saying his plea sentence. It is not mercy that he has. Rather a sword slash that lightly cut off his head.
With the merchant's head cut off, fresh blood immediately gushed out from his puffed neck without his head. Squeezing all directions wet his wife and daughter who from the beginning was in his arms.
"Yahhhhhhh……!!!!"
The incident immediately made the wife scream hysterically. Very shocked and completely unexpected that her husband would die in such a terrible way when he was tightly hugging her.
While the princess who seemed to be around 12 years old, now can only look blankly with a teary face. Staring fixed head of his father who is currently rolling on dry land not far in front of him.
"Hmmmm... You think that by constantly asking for mercy and mercy, then it will be enough to make us release you? How ridiculous!"
As the merchant's wife was still shouting hysterically, the voice of the bandit leader suddenly sounded. This man stared with a contemptuous look at the headless body of the merchant he had just killed.
"Only a merchant who has begun to age, it would be useless to also carry trash like this in a troupe! Being sold as a slave would definitely not have anyone willing to buy!" Said the bandit leader.
Hearing the words of the Bandit, the merchant's wife who was at first still crying as she pleased, immediately changed her facial expression. Looks very angry.
"You vile people! The devil! The devil! Wild animals! You're not human!" Shouted the wife, before starting to pull out a small knife from behind her shirt. Crashing forward intending to attack the bandit leader.
*Slaaaass.hh....!!!
However, only halfway through this woman lunged towards the bandit leader, the leader moved quickly ahead, and immediately gave a light slash to the woman's neck. Behead him.
"In the beginning I intended to spare your life, to let you live a few more days to accompany my nights, before selling you as a slave!"
"But it's stupid to try to attack me! It was an unforgivable act of attacking the bandit leader!" Grunts the bandit leader, while starting to flick his sword. Cleansing the remnants of blood from the woman he just killed.
Seeing his mother now also die horribly. The little girl the son of the merchant couple who had just been killed in a heinous manner by the bandit group, could only be stunned on the spot. His eyes stared blankly at his mother's head.
"All right! You all! Immediately empty all the treasures in the carriage! Don't forget to bring the little girl there! We take care of this girl for a few years, before we sell her! With such a beautiful face, she would definitely be able to be sold at a very expensive price when she had grown a little more mature!" Said the bandit leader.
"Hehehe.. Hello little girl! I hope it doesn't take much to fight back, obediently come with uncle!" Said one of the bandit members who was assigned to bring the little girl.
This girl who was still very shocked by the tragic death of her parents, could only keep staring blankly ahead. Not giving any answer.
Seeing that, the Bandit members only smiled, seemingly indifferent to the apprehensive condition of the little girl. He was about to grab the girl's wrist, until suddenly from the direction of the merchant carriage, a figure jumped out. Moving quickly and without saying anything gave a kick to the bandit's back.
*Bw….!!!
The kick is not too hard, but able to push the big body of the Bandit, to shift a few steps.
"Damn it! Who's that!" Jerked the Bandit, feeling very angry because it had been attacked from behind all of a sudden.
"Hmmm….!"
The bandit's impact, got no answer other than just a light snort. The one who had just attacked him turned out to be a little boy the same age as the merchant's daughter. The little boy was still trying to remove one of the chains attached to his hand with a key. While staring intently at the Bandit who had just cursed, he stood on his back to the little girl, looking intent on protecting her.
"Buck! Who're you! How dare to attack me! You're really looking for death!" Snatch the Bandit.
The last clash of the bandits, immediately attracted the attention of his other comrades. They all now turned their heads towards the source of the commotion.
"Who is that boy? I saw him jump out of the merchant carriage in the condition of a hand on the chain, was he one of the men's trading slaves just now? But why protect her daughter?" The leader of the bandits. Looks a little surprised.
The appearance of the boy himself, indeed looked like a slave. He was wearing old clothes that looked very shabby. Coupled with disheveled hair and a pale face like a lack of food, this brat met all the criteria of a slave who was about to be sold.
"You... Why?"
Just as everyone was still looking at this boy with astonished gazes, the little girl he was protecting, suddenly asked him.
Hearing the question, the boy only glanced over, before starting to open his hand which turned out to contain crumbs of dried bread.
Looking at the crumbs of dried bread in the boy's hand, the little girl only looked at him with a look of disbelief for a moment. Before we start crying again. Looks very moved.
"It's just dry bread! You could've left here, but you'd endanger yourself by protecting me?" Mumbled the little girl. His facial expression was between overwhelmed and feeling guilty.
"Hmmm….!"
Hearing the little girl's words, the boy before her only gave a short expressionless snort. Before starting to look back with a fierce gaze towards the Bandits before him.
"All of you why just shut up? He's just a kid! Quickly clean up now!" Shouted the bandit leader.
