When Amelia saw Andrew fell on the ground and bleeding nonstop, she screamed a heart wrenching cry and fainted.

Ethan crawled to Andrew when he touched him the warmth in his body was fading away slowly. He hugged him and start crying "old man, father, father don't… leave us. I will be…a good…boy. I will do my training… properly. I will…listen to you. So, please don't… leave us alone." Ethan said in a cracked voice.

There was a sharp pain came from his neck and Ethan fainted. Brady who made him faint picked him up and said to Scarlett "let's go"

Scarlett, who was behind him asked curiously "why are you taking boy with us, Why don't just kill him?"

"He got a little talent in sword, I will drop him in camp. If he able to survive, we will be able to get another good seed and also we can control her by this boy" Brady said while walking.

"Are not you afraid he will come to seek revenge?" scarlet said while showing her white teeth.

"Hahahaha" Brady stops in his tracks and start laughing hard as if he heard a really funny joke "if he can, then he can come for it. I will be waiting for him"

"Now stop talking and start moving I don't want to stay here any minute" Brady said, interrupting her from question more non-sense questions. He thought one day her curious personality will let her into some big trouble. Didn't she hear curiosity kills the cat *sigh*, he sighed. Scarlett stopped talking.

When they were outside the town, Scarlett takes out two bronze color coins. On coins there were pictures of a horse on them. These were mounted coins.

Mount coin is used to seal the beast inside it. These coins were developed after awakened appear specifically when beast tamers appear, to copy their methods to tame beasts. But it was a failed experiment, it can't seal any ferocious beasts and only seal those beasts that were harmless. These mount coins can only be activated by an aura so non-awakened can't use it. And one person can activate only one mount at a time.

Scarlett tossed one coin toward Brady. When they pour their aura in it two horses came out of nowhere. These horses were black in color and were about 2.0 meters tall. These were common mount in this region. After mounting they left the town behind.

Ethan wakes up multiple times during the journey, but the Brady brutality hit his nape and made him unconscious again and again. He was only left conscious one time on the whole journey. He was in a room there was a bed in the room. He was alone in the room. When he saw Amelia was not around him, he tries to stand up, but found himself tied in ropes. He starts struggling to untie the rope, but in vain.

When he heard the door opening he looked at door direction. Brady was standing at the door with the bread and sack of water in his hand. When he saw Ethan awake, he starts walking toward him.

Ethan starts cursing on first sight of him "bastard, where you take my sister…" before he could continue Brady put bread in his mouth shutting him.

"Bastard hmm, I like this name, now shut up and eat, I don't want you to die without reaching the camp from hunger" Brady said to him. Ethan spit out bread in his mouth and starts glaring at Brady with intense hate in his eyes.

Brady sees this, He becomes furious instantly. He steps forward covering Ethan's mouth with his hand and slammed him in the wall behind. He used so much forced that cracks appeared on the wooden wall.

Ethan was about to lose consciousness because of intense pain, but he gritted his teeth bearing the pain, there was a metallic taste in his mouth. When Brady removed his hand Ethan threw a mouthful of blood.

"Boy, I don't have temper to see your trauma. So don't start getting on my nerve if you want to live" Brady said while crushing bread in his hand and shoving it in Ethan mouth and pouring water in forcing it down Ethan's throat.

Ethan swallowed it with great difficulty and start coughing after swallowing it. Brady finely backed away. When Ethan was about to curse him again, Brady hit on his nape rendering him unconscious again.

***

When Ethan came back to his senses, he was in a dark room. The light source was only light of the moon coming through the window. When Ethan fully awakes, he realized he was in a cell.

Ethan grabbed the cell's bars and start shouting "bastard, where are you, let me out I will kill you." After shouting for a while when there was no answer he leaned against the cold wall.

Scenes of Andrew death start coming to his mind and he starts sobbing. While sobbing because of his tired body, he sleeps unknowingly.

Who knows how much time goes when a voice waked him up "hey, hey." Ethan looked around in a daze to find the source of the voice, but he didn't find anything because of darkness and thought he was dreaming when that sound came again "hey are you awake?"

When he heard it again, he sees toward other cell that was on the side the of his cell. There was a figure their standing because of dim light Ethan cannot able to see figure properly.

When that man saw Ethan seeing toward him, he said "are you all right, you were mumbling something and crying in your sleep."

"Who are you?" Ethan asked him.

"Oh, my name is Eli" answered Eli then asked "what is your name?"

"Ethan" Ethan answered him simply.

"What is this place and where are we?" Ethan questioned in order to find his whereabouts.

"This place, this is one of the black eye's camp." when Eli answered him Ethan was confused so he asked "black eye? What is that?"

Eli was a little shocked and looked at Ethan like he was looking at an idiot because of darkness Ethan cannot see Eli's expressions. But Eli can see the Ethan confused look because of moon light. When Eli saw that Ethan was really ignorant he explain to him "black eye is one of the largest black guild"

Black guilds are guilds that contain criminal as their members. Every dirty work that cannot be done by simple guilds is done by these guilds.

Ethan doesn't know many things, but he knows about black guilds one time Andrew mentions it to him. When Ethan thought about Andrew he becomes upset. He shook his head while he thought 'it's not time to be upset I have to find a way to get out of here and save sister'

He continues to ask questions to Eli "how can I get out of this place?" when Eli heard this he shook his head "you can't leave this place until you become 18 years old."

"Why not other guilds help us out is not its illegal to kidnap people?" Ethan asked he was little puzzled why not these guilds helped them.

"Well, even if they want to help us they simply cannot because this place is concealed from the outer world by concealment relic and people came in and out by teleportation relic. So…" before Eli could continue Ethan stop him "wait, wait, what is concealment relic and teleportation relic."

This time Eli was literally shocked. He can't help but saying "are you living under a rock all these years"

Ethan can only let out an awkward laugh. How can he say that he was living in a rural town where there was lived non-awaken elders who only said how cute they are, as for him, he spent more than half of the day training so he did not give attention to these things.

Eli gave helpless sigh before explaining to him "Relics you can say that these devices are exclusive to only awaken. Why? Because you have to pour your Aura on them in order to activate them. There is a way that non-awaken can use it, but I'm not sure about the details. They are made from material that are taken out from dungeons or dungeon beasts body parts." When Eli saw Ethan didn't ask any question he continued "there are thousands of recipes to make different types of relics. Concealment and teleportation relics are one of them. Lastly, the people who made these relics are called relic markers.

After hearing Eli's explanation Ethan was able to understand a few of these things, then he asked "why don't we just destroy that relic so outside help can come and help us out"

When Eli hears this and sighs "I also thought about when I came here two years ago and try to find it, but all in vain and now it's too late"

"My father said it's never late to try again so never give up" Ethan said these words subconsciously. When he realized he said the words that Andrew always say he become upset again. As for Eli he said nothing.

After sometime Ethan said "I will find it and destroyed it. You don't worry" there were complex emotions in Eli eyes. He knows it was impossible, but he doesn't want to destroy Ethan hope so he didn't comment.

"Ethan doesn't give up on anything as your father said and remember this in this world only powerful people will remained laughing at the end and weak always lose things that are precious to them" Eli said to Ethan seriously "and whatever happen to you in the future please don't waver from your ideals"

Ethan, who heard this he said "I will" firming his desire to leave this placed even more.

Eli didn't know that these words of his will help Ethan gives determination to move forward in all hardships that will come to him in future.

Eli and Ethan talk to each other until sunrise. There was a cry of bird came from above ground. When Eli heard this cry he closed his eyes and mummer "finally, it's going to end soon" Ethan didn't hear him as he was occupied by his own thoughts.
