Chapter 10: 10. The Protagonist

Rena squeezes her eyes and glares at me with disgust, disappointed yet confused by the situation.

Negative one hundred?! What the hell was "Samuel" doing?!!

Rena usually does not care when people ridicule her but for her to detest me this much?

She unsheaths her sword and points it at me. "Stay away from her," Rena says.

!

Led tries to intervene but a knight stops him. He can't fight back due to his state.

I obediently comply and release Kate, a knight walks closer and kick me away. 

Rena gets down and carries Kate herself. 

"Arrest him," she says.

A knight steps behind me and knocks my nape with the sword's pommel rendering me unconscious.

=============================== 

5 days later...

===============================

When I woke up 5 days ago, I discovered myself inside a prison cell, albeit a relatively clean one. 

As a prisoner, the prison guards scorned me but only went as far as to use verbal insults. Odd.

I tried taunting their presence with a condescending sneer but to no avail. They would always try to hold themselves back.

There is a rule stating that prison guards cannot abuse the prisoners but it will be fine as long as nobody reports it to the higher-ups.

They are neither afraid of me nor the punishment. The only conclusion I can come up with is my background. They are afraid of my family.

...

The more I think about it, the more I can align my existence with Arsto. 3 days ago, one prison guard was close to blowing his top until his colleague stopped him. 

His colleague said "Don't mess with the Turner family! Do you want to die!?"

I smiled and said, "That's right, do you know who my father is?"

The two prison guards glared at me but did nothing. 

"Don't make me repeat myself," I said. "Say who my father is."

The prison guard grits his teeth. "Sir William Fon Turner," he said.

That's how I was able to get my father's name. William's original name was William Fon Kas. The Kas family turned into the Turner family. 

...

I was forced to accept the fact that I've replaced Arsto. Other than that, everything is the same. 

I click my tongue and sigh.

Good, the buff is working. 

Two prison guard walks to my cell and unlock it and places a tray of food on the floor. It's a simple dish of bread with corn and meat accompanied by a bowl of soup. 

...Meat? 

"How can you serve meat to a prisoner?" I ask.

"Do you think I want to?" The guard scoffs. 

After the meal, I have other visitors. A mage, two knights and Rena herself. The mage takes a crystal ball and asks me to put my hand on it. Afterwards, he channels mana through it. The crystal ball transfers the mana into my body and produced the desired report back to the mage himself.

The mage gets up and shakes his head. "Sir Turner does not have any energy core. In addition, his physical body is very weak for a knight."

Ah...I see. I know what is going on. 

Rena sighs and nods to the knights. The knight releases the chain tied to my limbs.

I get up and brush the dirt off the leather tunic. 

Rena walks off.

"Follow the captain." the knight says. 

I did as instructed and walk behind Rena.

"Perhaps, did you think that I kidnapped the lady?" I ask.

"Impressive for a scoundrel, you can even read minds now," says Rena.

Haha...I knew it. 

I decided to shut up until Rena escorts me to the sunlight outside the jail. 

Rows of buildings at different heights, pathways engulfed by snow, deciduous bare trees occasionally scattered between snow-covered buildings, and children running and laughing in the snow as their parents watch from afar. In the middle of a plaza is a giant statue of a man wielding a sword. 

I'm in the capital of the Kingdom of Elvis. 

"How lucky of you, your punishment ends today. Never appear in my sight again." Rena says.

...

I bow my body down to 90 degrees. 

"I'm sorry for all that I've done," I say.

Rena clicks her tongue and walks away.

------------------------

Rena is sceptical of your intentions.

-1 favourability 

------------------------

Alas, it backfired...but it's the only way I can think of.

"Thank you for everything. I will be back." I say 

?!

"What?" Rena asks.

However, my back is already turned as I saunter across the plaza.

As much as I want to stay with Rena, there's something else I need to do. The first is to prepare for the second main mission and the invasion of the monsters.

------------------- 

Monsters are planning to invade a kingdom. Prepare the defences and find out more about the attack. 

The invasion will begin in 10 days.

-------------------

In this huge continent, only three human kingdoms remain. The rest were occupied by the demon lord's army. 

I need to get stronger first...

For starters, I should return to Arsto's household. I sigh and drag my feet to the mansion knowing that I am not welcomed there.
