章節 6: The Village Chief
Angelica was worried while picking up the flowers as she waited for Orion's return.
She did not know what happened to him that caused him to suddenly erupt with anger before her and even beat those bullies. But she wanted him to be safe as he was the only one left for her in this cruel world.
She wanted to keep him safe and that's why she always defended him even ready to take the extreme step to become girlfriend of Zeph knowing that it would not end well for her.
He was the only person in this entire world she could call family or a friend, as everyone was long gone leaving her and him alone.
She remembers Orion used to be a shy boy always scared of trouble due to his parents doting on him and keeping him safe from everything not even letting him do some basic stuff.
Once he was scolded by the teacher in the city, and wept for some hours in her arm as they were childhood friends.
She did not know how she was so close to him, but something inside her always made her protect this innocent but pure boy.
She almost lost him while he tried to defend her from Damien and was injured to a great extent but due to some miracle, he did not leave her alone and came back again with a strange but comforting personality.
She did not suicide because him always providing her with the same warmth and comfort.
Even today, she did not care if something happened to Zeph or anyone else, she just wanted him to be safe.
"Hey, Need some help?"
Orion's voice fell on her ear as she turned around with excitement and gazed at him who was smiling at her.
"No, not really. You already helped me with water pulling, I can do this okay?"
She threw an apple at him and began sorting out sunflowers.
"Where did you get it, hmm? Looks tasty,"
Orion caught it without looking at it and asked.
"Hehe, don't tell anyone but I stole it from the tree,"
Angelica mischievously smiled as she pointed out at the tree in the village which was owned by the village chief.
Crunch!
Orion did not care and took a bite, making his head light as a pleasant expression appeared on his face.
"Not gonna lie, it's the best apple I have ever eaten in my life,"
Orion genuinely found the apple quite tasty as it had a natural scent and delicious taste which pleased his tongue.
"You are not surprised that I stole it from the tree?"
Angelica finished sorting out them and picked up the basket in her hand.
Orion shook his head with a smile and snatched the basket from her, while Angelica pouted.
"You will not let me do any of this, huh?"
"Not until I am here,"
Orion smiled cheekily while Angelica fixed her blonde hair.
"Let's go home!"
Orion and Angelica went home, laughing as Orion used some internet jokes to make her laugh.
On their way, some villagers looked at them with strange eyes as they could not digest seeing the shy boy being so confident and chuckling.
"Oh, I wonder what occasion it is that you are so happy?"
A man aged thirty-two sarcastically meddled in their way.
"Who?"
Orion stopped chatting with her and gazed at the middle-aged man with eyes filled with questions.
"Haha, you forget about me, boy? Don't you remember the man who disciplined you once?"
The middle-aged man let out an ugly laugh while looking at him.
"He is the right hand of the village chief, Orion, just be polite and let's go on our way,"
Angelica recalled how Necker punished Orion just because he was looking at him, he slapped him two times and only released him as Angelica gave all her sunflowers to him.
Sunflowers were used to send to the city and in exchange every family used to get food and other necessities and most important the right to stay in the village.
Necker when sometimes became frustrated used to find conflict with people and get some easy money, due to the village chief, no common man in the village could go against him.
So he used this method to get money as well as to release his frustration by beating them.
That day due to not giving sunflowers to storage, they did not get food and spent their night with hungry stomachs.
Orion even apologised many times, but this world was cruel as Necker did not give back anything.
"Necker, huh? I remember you, you're that bloody bastard who escaped my wrath once,"
Orion eyes had a playful expression in them, as he provoked Necker.
Angelica's expression changed and she was about to bow but Orion's hands stopped her from doing so.
"Oh, really? I would love to see your wrath, Cmon show me!"
Necker's eyes were filled with shock at first but quickly became happy as he knew he was gonna get the supply of the free sunflowers again.
Boom!
A brick got past away Necker scaring the hell out of him as he placed his hand on his face and tried to feel it.
"I will show you pretty soon, Necker,"
Orion's eyes had maturity in them as he warned him with a calm voice, while Necker was astonished as he ran away in an instant and disappeared.
Some people on the road distanced themselves away from Orion, thinking he is gonna have to deal with a big trouble.
Orion spared Necker for now due to a purpose, and he had already devised a plan which was not gonna end well for Necker.
Angelica and Orion once again began walking towards the home with Orion being hilarious again with his silly expressions and cute jokes.
Huff! Huff!
"Sir! I need to tell you something important,"
Necker's voice echoed in the large luxurious mansion which was contrasted to poor houses in the village.
"Calm Down, Necker! I know a cultivator has appeared in my village,"
