Blake's POV
A strange emotion in my heart appeared the moment I entered the town. The town was small, unpopulated, and an impoverished place nestled in the middle of the lush forest that stretched as far as the eyes could see, making the quietness almost palpable. The main street, which seemed more like a dusty path, was lined with dilapidated buildings.
I walked for a couple of minutes and barely saw the humans. Although I could feel their presence, most of them were hiding, obviously cautious and keeping their distance from an outsider like me. Everywhere I went, I felt eyes directed towards me, guarding and watching my every move.
Just one look at the place and I knew why a secret group decided to hide in this place. This group was well aware that the residents would notice their arrival. But due to their weary and close nature, it would take a long time before words about their existence would come to the outsiders’ ears.
I pulled my hat down and continued aimlessly walking. That was, until a few minutes later when I turned to a small street and stopped my feet. Then, without turning around, I said with a cold and commanding tone, “Show yourself. I know that you are following me.”
The movements behind me immediately halted, then, I felt the person behind me hesitated. And before I could react, the person immediately moved, trying to run away.
I raised a brow and moved. In a blink of an eye, I was already holding the collar of a teenage human who was staring at me with terrified eyes.
“Y-you… let me go!” He waved his arms and feet, struggling to get away from my grasp. When he was starting to get louder, I pressed him on the ground, stopping him from further shouting.
“I will not kill you…” I started to say, making the teenage human freeze in fear. “That is, as long as you answer all of my questions. Truthfully,” I added with a cold voice.
“Nod your head if you agree.” Immediately, the teenage human nodded vigorously, while tears started to fall from his eyes in fright,
Seeing the boy frozen in fear, I slightly loosened my hold on his collar and asked, “Do you live here? If you do, how long?”
“S-since… e-ever since I-I w-was born….” The teenager stuttered.
“I see. Then why are you following me?” I asked sharply, making the teenager’s shoulder started to shake. “Did someone order you to follow me?”
“N-no! I-I’m sorry… No one o-ordered me to follow you… I did it on m-my o-own…” The boy answered with trembling voice. “I s-swear I meant n-no harm… I j-just… I just n-need to talk to y-you…”
“Talk to me? For what reason?” I demanded. Soon, my body was covered with a cold aura, making the human teenager to turn deathly pale. “Did you notice that I am new to this town, so you followed me to steal something?”
“N-no!” The teenager shook his head vigorously, denying my accusation. “I-I… I just w-want to request assistance! I s-saw that you guys have a g-great d-doctor! I thought… y-you might help us i-f w-we b-beg!”
“My m-mother… she-s so sick! P-please… I beg you… I r-really j-just need your help! I s-swear I wasn’t planning on anything bad!” He answered as tears continuously fell from his eyes.
“A great doctor?” I mumbled before letting the boy’s collar go. Instead of standing up right away, the boy continuously cried while laying on the ground, making my head pound slightly.
“Sit down and answer me properly. Elaborate what you meant about ‘us guys’ having a ‘great doctor,’” I demanded with a cold voice.
The teenage human slowly sat down and while sniffling, he replied, “I s-saw it with my own eyes…”
“Last time in the forest, a member of your group was injured… The beautiful lady… she took a vial from her robe and gave it to the person. Then… the i-injuries of the person… it was immediately healed!” He explained while waving his hands.
