Chapter 35:

The Guardians Of Ellesmere

The Creature Hunter: Soul Of The Wind


As Orano walked towards them, they looked at each other, laughed, and continued to chat,

"Weren't you and Jonathan close friends? Whereas you were having plenty of time together."

"No, he was an idiot. He couldn't even afford anything!"

"Just like the last time, we went to the bar. Do you remember how he embarrassed himself by throwing himself in the middle of the table?"

"And he did that after he screamed!"

They both started laughing loudly. But just then somebody tapped on his shoulder and said,

"Excuse me, can I ask you something?"

He didn't understand anything at first, since he was drunk. But he slowly turned around anyways and said,

"What do you want, brat?"

"I'm going to ask you to give me that leg back." Orano replied calmly.

They both looked at each other again, he laughed while laughing once more and said,

"A brat like you is telling me what to do or not, huh?"

He then added,

"I'm sorry Kiddo, but I don't have time to listen to brats like you. Just get out of here and cry with your friends somewhere else."

As they started to walk again once more, he tapped on his shoulder again.

This time the guy got angry and turned around to say something,

"Didn't I-"

But as soon as he turned, Orano threw an uppercut, then grabbed his face in the air, and hit him in the ground.

The other guy got very scared by his actions and tried to pull out his sword.

He shouted,

"Hey, asshole! What are you-"

But as soon as he tried to attack, He got kicked in the stomach and flew towards the window of one of the houses nearby and fell on the ground while breaking and falling through the glass.

Caitrin looked at him and said to herself,

*He really did it.*

After he beat them up, Orano slowly took the leg and threw it at Caitrin. 

She looked at him confused for a couple of seconds but then took the leg and put the boy's leg back on.

She then said,

"Here you go. Stay here, I will be back."

She then ran towards Orano and approached him.

Orano slowly put his sword in his belt and said,

"Now that we're done here, let's deal with the auction as soon as possible and leave."

"You are right. Since the kids are alright, We'd better not cause any more chaos. If we continue like this, they will come after us for sure."

But as soon as she said that, Orano started looking around quickly and carefully.

Caitrin asked nervously,

"Where are you looking at?"

He didn't look nervous, but he looked like he felt something coming.

And as Caitrin said that, Someone came at a speed as if he had flown all the way from the beginning of the street, and tried to attack them. But Orano jumped in front of Caitrin, took out his sword, and blocked the incoming attack.

Orano had crossed swords with a young man who looked like a swordsman, and now they were looking at each other.

He looked like a man who had just turned his twenties and he carried an iron sword with a black hilt. He was almost six feet tall and had short blue hair with yellow eyes. He was wearing dark blue pants, white gloves, and a dark blue uniform that looked like a suit.

During the time he and Tatsumi collided their swords, he looked deep into his eyes, and the solemn expression on his face never changed.

And at that moment, Orano pushed him with his sword and they both tried to attack each other, but when their swords got very close to each other, A woman appeared just like the young man did and pointed her sword at Orano.

The woman that appeared had sharp and careful eyes, just like the young boy. She wore a long black outfit with a white cape and She looked like she was in her early twenties too. She had long bright blonde hair that glowed like gold and green eyes like emeralds.

And as were they in that position, a man that had many soldiers behind him approached them.

The soldiers behind him wore the same outfit as the little girl and carried guns.

Caitrin then said to herself with a surprised expression on her face,

"This must be the Sniper Unit."

On the other hand, the man that was approaching looked like he was in his mid-twenties. He had long hair with a ponytail and blue eyes. He was wearing a white shirt, a black vest with blue-collar, white pants, and a blue cape hanging from his shoulders.

Unlike the others, he had a sly smile on his face.

When he approached enough, he said,

"Excellent work, as always, Runo, Lydia."

Then he looked at Orano and said,

"So it was you who caused trouble? You must know that you will be punished for what you did."

Caitrin looked at him with an angry expression and said,

"The real crime is what you have done. An innocent child's leg is getting stolen there, and none of you is reacting or protecting him! Not the people nor the government here! How do you think to live freely if you don't even respect your own people?"

After she said those words, his expression turned into an annoyed and angry one, and he said,

"You dare to speak me in that tone, huh? Because of your stupid actions, you have become a criminal. Now you'll spend time in the dungeon, wishing you'd been more careful with my movements."

Orano looked deep into his eyes and said,

"The same goes for you. You must know how much of a crime it is to direct your people like this, unaware of the Royal Society. What kind of lies you tell your people, what kind of games you play, all of it. As soon as they go out from here to them, you are going to be in big trouble."

What Orano said, made everyone around them started gossiping about the Earl, and the atmosphere became tense. 

And since the Earl got angry by the crowd and mostly from his words, The expression on his face went crazy. He was so angry at him, that he looked at him without batting an eye.

But then he slowly smiled, approached him, and whispered,

"You may be right about what you say, but as you can see, there's no one here to do that kind of thing, is there? So a poor creature hunter like you can't give me advice on how am I ruling. And there is something you should know. No one can stand against me, no one. And don't ever forget that."

On the other hand, the words of the Earl didn't make Orano angry. He just looked at him calmly.

Since his expression didn't change, The Earl looked at his soldiers and said,

"Take them to the dungeon, I will deal with them later."

And the soldiers held Tatsumi and Caitrin from their arms and quickly took them to the dungeon.
