peace out...]
In Ehrenar Slum...
In the remote part of the slum, Yoro is seen activating his clairvoyance. Right now, he is on intention to follow this red cloaked guy, back to wherever he belong.
Yoro is oddly have a feeling this guy is involved in that massacre in one way or another. And his suspicion is not based on unfounded assumption.
Yoro have three reason for following this guy, and for Yoro, its more than enough. First, when he first met this guy back then, Yoro is sure this man had passsed right where the corpse is lying at, which is clear when there is no other junction in there. And no, he is not running from the place or whatever, meaning he is somehow confident enough in his strength that he is capable to protect himself against the mysterious killer, or even maybe, he himself is the one.
Secondly, the route that this guy is right where Yoro and his group passed yesterday, so there is a chance he will end up in the place where Chad brought him yesterday.
And lastly, even if this guy is not trully the killer Yoro has been searching for, at least he has a power (or that is what Yoro was assumed) to make Yoro attracted to him (of course in healthy way). So basicaly, he is interested in him, and thats alone is enough to make him put an effort to stalk him down.
After a while walking, under the shroud darkness of the night, Yoro finally arrived at a bend in road which is leading to that dilapidated building from before. And under his clairvoyance, Yoro is surprised at what he seen.
That man is entering to that very building, where the entrance is blocked off yesterday. 'its opened now?' and Yoro's surprisedness is not actually baseless. If this guy really are having acces to this building, which Yoro doesn't know where he got it from, then he has a very big possibilites that he is trully the killer!

Yoro: "well, lets check it out shall we?" He said to no one in particular, but his heart couldn't help but to pump out his blood faster out of excitment.
This might be the day his investigation will over!
When he arrived right in front of that building, he stop in a sudden just to activate his clairvoyance there. He is not stupid enough to just barge in like an idiot. He have to check out for some traps and the interior of the building first before enters in.
But fortunately or not, there is actually no trap at all! But a shame, the inside of this building is too dark for him to see in this clairvoyance of his. "I have to enter in to check it out then," he mumble before taking a step inside through that the unlocked door there.
=================================
Meanwhile in the Ehren Mansion.
Its already nightime, and Cecilia has done all her job already for today. Now, she is back at her bedroom, fondling with the necklace that Yoro brought for her.
Cecilia: 'it's blue...' she doesn't know why, but heat can be felt from her cheek right now. 'He is somehow knew my favorite colour...' and as she thinking of this, her heart can't help but beats faster.
Cecilia: "Aghh!! What the hell am I thinking!" She couldn't stay still in her bed as the her face is turning even hotter than before.
Cecilia: "There is no way a lowly maid like me can be with him...right?..." she mumbling to herself with a low voice. But her heart is saying exactly the otherwise, she knows it better than anyone else.
Cecilia: "I don't care if I won't become his partner. I just want to be at his side..." her voice become lower at the end of her sentence. She knows it. She knows it verywell... That her heart is,
Already stolen by his smile.

But suddenly-
Knock! knock! knock!*
???: "Cecilia! Open the door!" A hard knocking coming from her bedroom door, followed by a woman voice that filled with impatiance.
Cecilia: "Bella-san?..." As she heard Bella's tone there, she is a bit taken aback. Bella is usually a composed and calm woman in her eyes, which is making this the first time she hearing her composed-voice broke.
Realizing this maybe an urgent business, she hurriedly get off from her bed and swiftly walking to the door. As she want to opens it, it suddenly opened by the peson behind those, showing just how impatence she is right now.
Cecilia: "What happened?" Cecilia inquiries as she sees Bella dishelved state. Really unusual for her
Bella: "No time to talk, just follow me! I will explain it in the way there" as she said this, she turn her body and briskly walks away, prompting Cecilia to walk closely to her.
In the corridor, Cecilia can see guards of this place running come and fro from time to time as she follows Bella. "Can you tell me now?" She said in a aggravated voice as she can see something is wrong, but she doesn't know what.
And finally, Bella drops the bomb
Bella: "young master is in danger..." She said shortly before opening the door in front of her that leading to the mainhall. In there, every familiar face in this mansion is attending here, making it seems crowded.
Arnold: "Ah, so you have come" after seeing Cecilia's stunned posture in front of the double door, he called out and approach her, making her comes out of her stuppor there.
Cecilia: "i-is that true? Y-young ma-" she stuttered in her word from the shocked state she was in. She just couldn't believe what she heard just now, but as she asking, she is interrupted in the mid-way.
Arnold: "calm down!" He raised his at her to make her awake. "Take a deep breath and listen to me" he commanded as he grab her hand and drag her to where Chad and Diana at.
Cecilia then realize that he is right, she couldn't lose her composure now, not when Yoro is the one who putted on the table.
Diana: "alright, seems we all here. Lets hurry up" right after she said this, she then turns around and lead the other to go out of this place.
As Cecilia goes out of the mansion, a big family carriage is already there, already attached with the horse as a sign its ready to be used, along with the other carriage around.
Chad: "alright lad hops in" Chad stretch his hand to help her get on as the other already inside. "We need to go to the City".
The carriage is big, so big that it can hold eight people without them being suffocated in it. The atmosphere is tense, without any of them know what is really going on.
In the mid of that silence, Chad then break the ice as he said to Cecilia: "be grateful brat, if I don't know your feeling to young master, we would've left you behind there" Chad grunt to ease his nerveousness in heart.
Cecilia nodded in appreciated fashion at Chad before saying to everyone here: "so? Anyone cares to tell me what is really going on?" Her voice is there is dripping with frustation as she growing restless in her seat.
Arnold: "right, actually Yoro is-"
BOOM*
Guards: "WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!" The guard shout is heard after the sound of explosion echo.
It seems this thing is more complicated than they've thought.

8 1215Project: You have died
A monologue story about a man who died and was reborn in a new world of mysteries and intrigue. Where monsters and magic are common place and gods are plentiful. The story follows his life as fate conspires to bind him to a path which he will eventually struggle to come to terms with. *** The story is a slow burner inspired by web novels with the main character accounting every action in time. I doubt this style is for everyone ***
8 211Giantslayer
Synopsis: Alain is a fledgling Giantslayer, enhanced individuals capable of killing deadly giants. But these giants are not big, they are what ancient humans would refer to as mundane animals or beasts. 'The Final Curse' as many humans call it, was a curse that shrunk down the entire human population to the size of small rodents. When the curse first occurred, the majority of the human population was eaten by beasts who are now of towering heights and sizes. But their abandoned gargantuan structures were not built for naught, the remaining humans retreated back into their now giant buildings and rebuild societies and nations inside of them. Follow Alain in his quest to right the wrongs done to his past and hunt down the elusive and mythical Elder Giants, giants capable of intellects and speech. Are they real? Alain certainly insists so despite no one believing him. But perhaps it did not matter, they were real enough to him for what they did to his family. A/N: I'm pretty new to writing creatively so I hope to improve as we move along the story. The prose I use is still fairly simple and 'plain', but I am also new to literature in general so I am hoping to improve my vocabulary as well. It should also come under no surprise that I am a non-native English speaker and writer as well. With that said, I do appreciate constructive feedback. Please don't be overly mean at least. All the chapters are rough drafts that will be edited in the future. The cover is by this user from pixiv: https://www.pixiv.net/en/users/4545042
