Bab 401: A Lost Puppy

The little boy shut his eyes tight as a coping mechanism to shield him from the imminent pain from the punch that he was bestowed.

However, even after a few seconds of waiting for the throbbing pain to arise from his nose and cheek, he felt nothing at all.

Instead of his painful whimper that he was ready to let out, he heard a groan coming from the opposite direction.

Peeking through half-opened eyelids, what he saw made him release the breath that he had been holding until now.

Standing before him was the same boy who had tried to strike him earlier but unlike the haughty look he had before, now he appeared to be in great pain.

Everyone present here turned their eyes to the cause of this pain and was surprised to see who it was.

The little boy too had his eyes fixed on the newcomer and his hand which was holding the bully's fist tight to block the attack that was aimed at him.
