The southern region of Blackboard City
City outskirts
By a vast and hty river, at a rehtly over ten years of age, kicked away pebbles with each step, casually walking around along the riverside He didn’t see boy’s face was filled with helplessness
He saw there was no one in his is, and couldn’t help but speak out
"Master Red Moon, did you find the thing you were looking for?&8221;
"Hush now! What’s the rush?&8221; an irritated voice scolded next to his ear
"But we’ve been walking around for half an hour What about returning ho boy felt even more helpless now He looked at the bakery unifors run amok here It would be troublesome if we encountered them!&8221;
"What’s there to fear? You have le you if you make any more noise! Fck, youboy quivered and ier of One For All Bakery, Clint In a white servant attire, hie of river water stirred by strong gusts of wind vigorously splashed against thewave rose up and collided with the riverside
Splash!
Large sprays of water were abruptly stirred up, soaking Clint entirely He couldn’t react in time when it happened His entire unifor his person as well
"Ah!!! My uniform!&8221; ae shouted out loud He ust blew by, and he sneezed immediately after
"How can I be so unlucky!!&8221;
"I told you to not screa!&8221; Red Moon scolded harshly
The young ht Luckily, no one had appeared to see this sorry sight, otherwise, he would’ve been very embarrassed
"You can’t even withstand a so crazy if you encounter that bunch of people?&8221; Red Moon couy, I have nothing to with any mech wars or whatever That would be a job for the police,&8221; the youngout so the worst luck today
"Even if you were an ordinary person before, the er normal Do you understand this?&8221; Red Moon calmly spoke in a much warmer tone than usual
"But the Blackboard CityThere’s no need for us to worry about that group you mentioned,&8221; Clint helplessly replied
"You sure do enjoy relying on others, huh? Always deciding on letting others handle the troubles? Have you never thought of turning it all around and beco someone others can rely upon?&8221; Red Moon asked in return
Clint fell silent Although his core personality eak, it didn’t ood and bad He desired to repay and take care of his sister, as well as finding his biological parents while helping his close friends
"Did you forget about Darby?&8221; his dreaet about Baylon? His dreaer be a burden to his faest dream was for you to become truly independent, to become a mature man! Not someone who only knows to cower behind others’ protection, and shrink yourself away into your own pathetic shell the moment trouble arises&8221;
Red Moon had never properly lectured anyone before; this was his first ti so
Clint remained quiet He ell aware of his family’s wishes and the dreams of his friends, and so he, too, had aspired to contribute toto act and really starting to make them come true were two entirely different matters
"Tell me, are you a selfish person?&8221; Red Moon asked in a loud voice, "If your answer is yes, then I will just look for another compatible person, just so I won’t waste any more tiood-for-nothing coward&8221;
Clint lowered his head and continued to remain silent, took him awhile before he voiced out
"But… but…&8221;
"But what!?&8221;
Sizzle!
Abruptly, an arc of blue electricity lit up on Clint’s body After the crackling of a few electrical sparks, Clint knelt down on the ground as san twitching
His pupils dilated and his eyes widened without blinking
"This painful sensation steed in the boy’s ears "Aren’t you scared of pain? Then allow et a feel for it&8221;
Sssss…!
After another wave of electric current sounds, Clint dropped down onto the floor His body went through spas an out-of-water shrimp
"This is the sensation of mutilation, have a taste of it&8221;
Sssss…
"This is the pain of ruptured organs&8221;
"Aaarghh…&8221; Clint uncontrollably drooled and it dripped onto his clothes and the ground He wanted to close his h his body had left his mind went blank and his body unresponsive
