"People in this country are no different from the Water and Wind countries." Zeno said walking with his horse.
But it was also night, tired and hungry following Zeno. Now he only needs food and sleep to make him excited for tomorrow.
Then he looked for an inn, equipped with a restaurant is something that is so perfect as what Zeno needs today.
"Well, put your ears on. A restaurant or something like that is a gathering place for people to talk about something important. And I already know that." Firmly Zeno while entering a restaurant with a fairly simple inn.
"Good sir."
Even so, this store is arguably quite comfortable with the view of the river behind the window, making Zeno also so comfortable, so this store is also not much different from luxury restaurants in general.
"Sir, how can I help you?"
"I ordered one room and also a portion of the food that people here used to order." Pinta Zeno with eyes that do not look at one side, why he also had to find information about important places or historical places that he thought could evoke the lightning element.
"Sir, is there something wrong with this restaurant?" Asked the woman who served Zeno in confusion. Because, he saw Zeno with eyes everywhere.
"Oh I'm sorry."
"I'm just quite surprised, even at night, the store is still crowded too." Zeno smiled even though he was hiding his true intentions.
“Thank you sir, I hope you can be more comfortable to be here.” Reply to the woman with a friendly smile towards Zeno.
“Food delivered to master's room, or master ate first on this floor.” Ask the woman.
“I'll eat on this floor first.”
The woman nodded. “Alright, you can sit at one of the tables, we will prepare food for you as soon as possible.”
Zeno finally left the young woman as a cashier serving Zeno. Waiting for food to be prepared while putting his ears well. Because he needed to find information related to the awakening of his lightning element.
Again Zeno also warned Kiba to use his keen sense of hearing, so that, from a distance of several meters that Zeno did not hear, Kiba could listen to him so well.
Braaac
Zeno who was so relaxed was suddenly startled by the slamming of the door so hard, that he turned his gaze towards the shop door.
A person arrogantly entered the tavern impolitely, an extremely horrifying gaze for anyone who saw him. On the other hand, the visitors also gave a face expression as if they hated after what the arrogant man did, but how else, he said, the visitors mostly did not have great powers capable of challenging others.
An old woman, walking in a tunnel, held a stick as a brace so that she would not fall to the ground. With a body that trembled and was afraid of making anyone who saw could only stroke the chest.
“Mr Geldhe, I'm sorry, but I still don't have the money to pay off the debt.” Said the woman's mother bowing, her face so sad when a debt collector with such an arrogant nature.
The man named Geldhe slammed an item on the table, making the mother and son a little scared and shed his tears. “Before you also spoke like that.” Geldhe said with slightly bulging eyes.
“Really, I don't have enough money to pay off the debt sir.”
Geldhe looked at the middle-aged woman with a slight raise of his eyebrows. It felt like he wanted to slap the woman for repeatedly giving the same excuse when being charged with debt. However, Geldhe pulled his own hand to want to hit the middle-aged woman, he resigned his intention to see a beautiful teenager who joined in crying behind the middle-aged woman.
“Begin only, I will assume your debt is paid off, as long as you want to give the woman behind you.” Said Geldhe staring lustfully at the cashier's woman.
The old woman turned to her only daughter, of course as a mother she refused Geldhe's request to take her daughter. “Master, I'm sorry, I can't give my daughter to pay off my debts.”
Geldhe did not care, now all that was in his brain was lust. So he ordered his subordinates to forcibly seize the middle-aged girl's child.
Geldhe's subordinates immediately complied with his request, they tugged at the old woman's child so violently. But the old woman also did not let him, she also pulled her child so as not to be carried away by Geldhe.
“Master I beg you, do not take my son, you can confiscate the store as a debt payment right now.” The old woman tried to hold her child.
Neither Geldhe nor his subordinates, they were at all concerned with the sobs of the two women who were trying their hardest to let go of Geldhe's coercion. The middle-aged woman who was unwilling to let go of her child, made Geldhe so furious. A deliberate blow he landed right on the cheek of an old woman until it turned red.
The middle-aged woman still holds her child, even though she has been beaten a number of times, she is not wise if the child falls into the hands of a cruel person like Geldhe.
The visitors, all from then on, could only look and hold back from helping the woman who owned this tavern, resisting the yelling after seeing the owner of this tavern slapped so hard. The problem was that they all did not have the strength to fight Geldhe as well as his subordinates who seemed to be extremely strong.
Unlike the others, Zeno now stood up while holding a view that was also no less terrible than Geldhe. Actually from earlier he did not want to interfere with the debt problem of the owner of this store, because basically the debt must also be paid.
Zeno began to dislike the debt collector's behavior ever since he slammed the goods, but he still let it go because it was his business. Something that makes Zeno stand up and not accept is because he sees debt collectors or Geldhe playing hands to middle-aged women. Making Zeno could not imagine if the one who was slapped was his mother, he must be very careful. So Zeno must have understood the feeling of the cashier lady after seeing her mother slapped that easily.
“Master, can you keep your hands." Zeno said as he walked towards the quarrel courageously.
This made all visitors open their eyes wide, because he saw a young man bravely helping an old woman who was currently having trouble dealing with Geldhe.
"Who are you? You don't have to interfere in this, do you just want to be a hero in front of a woman?" Shouted Geldhe so arrogantly?
