Capítulo 257: Escape

The boy didn't answer Lilia's question. He tried to push the little girl away from him with all his might. He did manage to get away from Lilia, but his actions made the chains on his hands come loose. The chains hit the ground with a loud jingling sound.

They both then froze in shock. In the next second, there were clattering sounds and screams from the direction of the alley that the boy had left behind. Lilia didn't understand the dialect of those people's screams, but she caught the word 'chain'. Her gaze immediately fell on the chain wrapped around the boy's feet.

It seemed that the boy had been locked up for a long time, judging from the condition of the chains. The iron chain had completely eroded his sleeves and trousers, leaving bloody marks on his ankles and hands. Lilia didn't know how that kid would break the chain. The boy continued to hold onto the end of the broken chain, to prevent the chain from making a sound as he walked.
