6 Meeting With The City Lord
Skar has stopped Naota. Naota and Skar both are staring at each other. "The city lord wants to meet you." Skar says to Naota.
(This guy...I don't know why but I sense trouble.)
"Sure thing." Naota says to Skar. "Follow me." Skar says to Naota. "Lead the way." Naota says as he follows Skar.
The people begin to gossip around. "Well his dead." One of the men gossiping within the marketplace says. "That's what happens when you hang around the city lord's fiance." The other man says. "Yeah but we know that not him. His a new guy around here, at least that's what I heard from Maria." A girl says. "From Maria? You need to inform her. Maybe she can save him." The other man says.
Naota and Skar reach a huge castle which is in the middle of the city. There are two men guarding the castle gate. "That's one huge castle." Naota says as he observes the castle. "Of course it is. It's the city lord's castle after all." Skar says to Naota. Skar signals the men guarding the castle gate to drop the gate. The guards nod. They open the gate. Skar and Naota begin to move in.
"It's surprise that your not afraid." Skar says to Naota as they begin to march in the castle. "I have been in situations that I had to be afraid in and being in a crazy situation is just in my luck so I just can't always be afraid and chicken out of those situations..." Naota says to Skar.
(That's what I have learnt from red light district.)
Naota was raised in the red light district. He always got into fights since he was a kid at the red light district. As a result, he became more and more resilient to the term 'fear'. Hence why, he no longer feels afraid of anything. When it came to satisfying his stepfather's desires, it was only so that his mother could live a happy life or else he had rage built in for his stepfather too.
At that moment Skar thought, "What a reckless guy."
"We are here." Skar says as he stops before three stairs where the throne is. "So that's the throne of the city lord." Naota says as he see's a man with long dark yellow hair, a crown which has jewels implanted in it and a robe worthy of being a king.
(A true city lord...That's what I would like to say but this man's face...It's a face of a fraud and a complete jerk. Then again I shouldn't judge people by their appearances.)
"That smell..." Adana realises that Naota is within the castle. Naota looks to the city lord's right and there stands Adana. Skar moves up to the city lord's left side and whispers something in his ears. "I see..." The city lord says as he grins and keeps a hand on his chin while balancing his hand on the throne.
"Now, now, what do we have here?" The city lord asks in his mystical voice. "Name's Takaki Naota, just call me Naota though." Naota says to the city lord. Naota waits for the city lord's response. "What? Your expecting me to tell you my name?" The city lord asks Naota. "Well, that's how one introduces themselves to another person." Naota says to the city lord. "What did you say?!" Skar seems to be ready to fight against Naota. "Now, now, Skar, don't be reckless. This man here needs a introduction, please do it for me would you?" The city lord orders Skar. "Understood city lord." Skar says bowing his head.
"This man sitting on the throne is the city lord! The one and only ruler of this city! His name is Pistom Mortel! The man to whom this whole city bows!" Skar introduces the city lord. Naota doesn't seem to be paying attention. "Where are you looking?!" Skar asks Naota. Naota looks back at the throne. "Oh nothing, it was getting dark so I was just checking that." Naota says to Skar. "Huh?!" Adana chuckles while both Skar and Pistom seem to be getting frustrated.
"Let's just get to the point as I don't like wasting time too." Pistom says as he folds his hand and is frustrated. "Alright." Naota says to Pistom. "Were you the one who was with my fiance this afternoon?" Pistom asks Naota.
(Don't say anything Naota)
Is what Adana thought and the blind girl begin to shake her head slowly trying to indicate something towards Naota.
"Yep that would be me." Naota says it casually. Adana leaves out a heavy breathe. She seems to be getting scared. "Wow, you really don't seem to be afraid of your answers." Pistom says to Naota. "Why would I be afraid of something when I did nothing wrong?" Naota questions Pistom. "That is correct..." Pistom looks down on the ground.
Pistom pulls Adana close to him. "Listen closely Takaki Naota! This girl here is mine and I will be marrying her soon and you tried to make a move on her." Pistom says as he begins to press Adana's tits. "Huh? Why would I make a move on a woman whose about to married? And what's with this sexual action? Are you trying to make me horny because that bullshit is not working on me." Naota points his index finger towards Pistom as he speaks his words.
"What seriously is with this guy?" Pistom questions up. "If that's all you have to talk to about then I will be going. I have a dinner to attend to." Naota says as he begins to leave the castle. "NAOTA! STOP RIGHT NOW!" Skar screams out. Pistom stops Scar who was about to attack Naota. "Let him be." Pistom says to Skar. Pistom throws Adana away from him. "Listen up you bitch, you are not going to meet that Naota guy anymore, understood?" Pistom says to Adana. Adana nods. "That guy Naota...He pisses me off." Pistom smirks.
(Takaki Naota...I am going to kill you just because I don't like your attitude.)
