Chapter 46: Getting ready

The group of three stayed in the orphanage for about another fifteen minutes. As they looked around the place, they tried their best to play it off as though, they were just walking around. Since Matthew used to do this when he came to visit, no one really paid the three much attention.

They even went to speak to the boss here. They found with him a person who has a  large scar on their face. This guy looked very strong, probably as strong as Asvin, but a little weaker than Gleeward.

They spoke to this guy for a bit, and from his tone, his equipment, as well as the fact that he was the strongest, "Adventurer", here, it made sense to think of him as the  leader of this small group from the Grey Dogs gang.

The three then returned to the carriage, that carried the sigil of the Black Wolf, as they headed back to the main Cavias family mansion. On the way there, Matthew asked the two, "Umm! So, can you take care of that guy? The one with the scar, and who looked like the leader?".

Asvin looked at Gleeward, as he waited for his former trainer to answer first. The Chief of Guards for the Ankston family, Gleeward, answered with a smile on his face, "Yes, young lord, I am confident in my ability to win against him. In fact, I am sure I can kill him with ease even!".

Matthew could only look at the man in front of him with surprise. He had always imagined that Gleeward was around the Second Star level, if he were to use the Star System, invented by the leader of the bastards from the Black Tower.

But now, it looked like he might have been wrong in that estimation, it might be that he's in the Third Star region, just like Asvin, and his father, Nero Ankston, were. 'Hah! Great that he's a guard that works for my family!'.

'Unfortunately, though, by the time I take command of the family, he would either be too old, or already dead! So, he won't be serving me, but then again, it's not like I won't have strong friends by that point, one of them, could be... Max!'.

At that thought, Matthew remembered everything that had happened just about an hour or so before now. He had been trying his best to ignore it, since it caused his heart beat to elevate, and his chest to tighten with pain.

But, the most severe pain he felt, wasn't physical, which was very bad, no, it was the worst kind you could feel, the emotional kind. The one that didn't go away with time, but stayed there. (Of course, even the physical could stay).

He felt like he had left a close relative of his to get... Well, bad stuff happening to her. Tears formed at the corner of his eyes again, as he tried to look away from the two that were with him in the carriage.

Gleeward wanted to say that he was ready to do as commanded, but the words stuck in his throat. He knew that they had no chance there, alone like this. And so, he just kept his silence, as he felt sympathy for what the nine-year-old might be feeling at the moment.

As for Asvin, he couldn't say anything either, after all, as soon as Matthew stopped talking, and had his expression turn from one of shock at the level of power of his Chief of Guards, to one of sadness.

The young man remembered what he was told by the young boy. 'What if it was Theresia, Rosin, Terria, or Sonia? What if it were mother? Actually, what if it was Matthew? Since, I really do consider him like a young brother of mine! What would I do, in that situation?'.

'Would I still do the same thing? Keep my calm, and tell him that we have a mission, and that if we act rashly here, everything will be ruined, or, would I do what he was about to do? Use force to kill the enemy, get the info on where the person taken was, now, and go save them?'.

'I essentially told him to let her be used and raped by who knows who, I... But, was I wrong in that? We had no chance there, we are only three? Well, anyway, we should act very soon, since it's already getting a little dark, if they haven't returned her yet, I swear that I will go save her, and the other kids, personally!'.

'Still, that means letting them be used until that time arrives!', Asvin was deep in thought, as he fought himself over what was right, and what was wrong, to do in such a situation. After all, it wasn't an easy choice to make.

Just like that, the carriage stayed quiet until it reached the mansion of the Cavias family. There, the Fierce Lion, Nero Ankston, Marcela, and Rania, were all waiting for the return of the carriage.

When the three got out from the carriage, Matthew brushed his crying face, and looked at his father, who was confused by the look of sadness in his son's face. He immediately asked Asvin, but was surprised to find the young man just as sad.

"Ah! What happened?". It wasn't Asvin who replied, but the Chief of Guards, Gleeward. He told everyone what they found, and what happened, during their small visit to the orphanage.

At the same time, Marcela was hugging her nine-year-old son, and patting him on the back, trying her best to ease his pain. As for Rania, she asked her son, "Umm, is everything okay, Asvin?".

"Hmm? Yeah, I am alright, thanks for asking, mother!", replied the young man, though his tone was sad, and it implied that everything was, indeed, not fine. The Fierce Lion's face turned scary after he heard what Gleeward had to say.

"How? How could I allow such a thing to exist in my city? Nero, we'll be changing the plans, we'll go now! I presume that's fine with you?", asked John Cavias. Nero looked at his crying son for a second, before he nodded his head, and said, "Yeah, of course it is!".

With that, preparations were made, and in less than ten minutes, everything was ready. The Fierce Lion took 15 soldiers with him, and left the other 20 close by to his home, to protect the rest of his family. He also donned his armor, the armor of the Lion.

It was colored red, with a big drawing of a yellow lion with blood dripping down his hands, at the front of the chest plate. He also wore a helmet, it was shaped in the form of a yellow lion. He took his golden sword, and his red spear, and with that, The Fierce Lion was ready for battle.

On the other hand, Nero did nothing, aside from goong to his mansion, and getting 10 soldiers, as well as a blue, long staff. With that, he, too, was ready for battle.

Even though pretty much everyone disagreed, Matthew still convinced them to let him go. He was strong enough to fight normal soldiers, and, he wanted to be there when the orphanage was liberated from these evil people.

Marcela could only wave goodbye to them, the same was true for Rania. Unfortunately, they weren't fighters, and neither was Theresia. They could do nothing, aside from wait for them to return.

That was also why Rosin wanted to train in magic - Her father still hasn't agreed to it - so that she could help the ones she loved, and not just stay waiting for them, to return, either alive, or dead.

The same thing was true for the Manos sisters, who were training to become swordswomen. But, their reason, was even stronger than the little Rosin, since they had their family snatched from them by the Black Tower.

Both little girls wanted to stop something like that from ever happening to them again. As such, they took swords, and started training to become stronger.

...

With that, everyone heard the Fierce Lion say, "Men, are you ready for tonight?". He heard a huge roar from his men, Nero had done the same, and his men didn't disappoint either.

"Good! Today, some of you might die, others will lose an arm or more! I want us to give those people a reason! I want us to say, "You didn't die in vain!". There are children being abused, even right to this moment, I won't describe to you in what ways, since we don't have the time, but you can imagine, so remember this clearly".

"Our mission isn't to kill the enemy, but to save the children! Is that understood?", roared the Fierce Lion, as he asked his men. Who, in turn, roared even louder to confirm their understanding of the mission.

Even though no one could see it because of the helmet he was wearing, the Fierce Lion was smiling at the moment. In the next second, he said, "Okay! Let us start our mission then!".
