The several pieces of broken gla.s.s were all over the floor, as the man slowly walked towards her, she couldn't see his full face only saw some strands of his brown hair dancing on his shoulder, the knife on his hands was dripping blood drops, seeing the blood drops she trembled in fear, the killer came near her step by step.

Her heart was beating so fastly with every step of his, her heart would punch against her chest as it wanted to leap out, she struggled to stand up but she was unable to do, she searched the floor near her to get something to defend herself, only to find a broken piece of gla.s.s from a wine bottle, she picked it up and aimed at the man walking towards her.

"Don't...Don't come near me I …i...will kill you" the half-elf was s.h.i.+vering, she curled up and covered her bare chest with her knees and pointing the broken piece of gla.s.s towards Don.

Every step of the way, the gla.s.s pieces made a crunching sound under his feet, he saw the s.h.i.+vering half-elf and her weapon pointed towards him, she was crouching down in fear.

Don was standing near her, only an arms-length distance between him and the curling half-elf.

"Relax I'm not going to hurt you" as he said he removed the hood and his brown robe revealing his arm cut s.h.i.+rt, black leather pants, and his handsome Mike's face.

Don sat down on one knee before the girl and looked into the eyes of the scared half-elf, Don didn't say anything just wrapped his brown robe around the half-naked elf.

On the ground, the half-elf instinctively tried to stab Don when he tried to wrap his robes around her but he just stopped her hands in the mid-air and knocked off the piece of gla.s.s and wrapped his brown robe around her without a hitch.

The half-elf girl didn't refuse the robes as she just put around herself and held it firmly and tried to stand up only to fall on the ground because exhaustion and the beating she took from Minister Bryan.

Seeing the struggling half-elf, Don grabbed one of the hands and helped her stand up on her feet, but at the exact moment a small ball of light departed from Minister Bryan's chest and started to float towards Don, the half elf's body trembled and tighten when she saw the light.

Don had not an idea at all what this ball of light is but just it's flying towards targeting him or the half-elf, Don quickly s.h.i.+elded the half-elf with his body as he came in front of her facing the ball of light because he knew he had the power to defeat whatever this light ball is.

Still, Without stopping the ball of light flew right into Don's body, Don didn't know what's going to happen as he just touched the spot the light entered with his hands instinctively. At the moment the half-elf jerked her body as something also entered her body but that feeling faded instantly.

A moment later, nothing happened to either of them.

"Interesting" Don said in a calm voice as he realized what happened. He felt like he grew an arm out suddenly when the light merged with him, he was able to tell that this is the master bond of the half-elf, Don realized if he wanted to he can do whatever he wants with the half-elf.

When he killed the master of the slave bond, the owners.h.i.+p of the half-elf transferred to the killer of the master.

The half-elf is not a fool, she felt the master bound in the human before her, she became aware that her current master is the killer of her former master Minister Bryan.

"You..you what do you want?" she was still s.h.i.+vering as she asked in an exhausted voice.

Don didn't look at her while speaking, he just started to walk towards somewhere,

"I'm not like him...we should get out of here unless you have a better way"

The half-elf was not in the position to disagree and also she was not able to feel the menace she felt from Minister Bryan, he didn't look at her like a creature or lesser being but as a being with feelings otherwise, he wouldn't have given his robe to her.

Also, she felt safe with him for some reason which she was unable to put her finger on.

Don knew she would follow him because she had no other way so he didn't wait for her as he walked towards the hole on the roof which he made to jump down but while he was walking he heard a squeaky sound on the floor. Don stared down the ground beneath him and retraced his steps slowly and stopped moving just when he heard the same sound again, he thumped the ground beneath him with his shoes and felt there was something wrong with the ground.

"Step away from the carpet," Don said to the half-elf before him then she stepped away from the carpet as he said.

"What were you hiding Bryan?" Don cut the carpet around the area that the squeaking sound. The floor looked normal. It was made of Red oak wood which was polished clean and reflected the light a bit.

Don saw a little b.u.mp on the floor "Hidden safe huh"

Very quickly Don pried open the safe with his knife and saw some doc.u.ments and a pouch full of coins, he took and folded the doc.u.ments and put it inside his pant pockets then he opened the pouch and saw many s.h.i.+ning gold coins.

"I'll take this but..." he realized he couldn't put it into his pant pockets as its too big

"Put it inside the pocket" Don threw the pouch towards the half-elf and stepped away from the hidden safe and stood to look up the hole on the roof, the half-elf caught the pouch with her two hands and hesitated for a moment but eventually she decided to put it inside the pockets.

"Let's go" Don motioned the half-elf to come near him with his hands.

She wanted to ask where and how however she knew the guards would come knocking soon at that time she couldn't hope to escape, the only way out of here was with the human before of her.

"Ok," she said with a little fear and stepped near him just when she did that a pair of strong hands lifted her from the ground, she was in the arms of the human, like the princesses in the stories she heard from her mother.

"Put your arms around my neck and hold me tightly" she had no time to react to what the human said before she was flying in the air. She couldn't believe her eyes, the wind was strong as it caused her hair to fly into her face, she quickly put her hands around the human and held him tightly.

Flying through the air Don didn't look at the half-elf in his hands, only thing was going on his head was that what the mysterious mage said, he had a bad feeling about it,

What did he mean by "extermination", is it only him or an organization?

"Either way I need to get stronger and build an army soon," he told himself.

"Who are you?" the half-elf finally asked Don, as he looked down at the half-elf in his arms

"I am Don," Don calmly said.

"Don" the half-elf muttered his name and slowly closed her eyes in exhaustion and tiredness.

Half an hour later, Don landed outside of the city walls where he and Uncle Dior planned to meet but as he looked around there was no one in the vicinity only some big trees before him, he was sure Uncle Dior would not leave him behind but just when he was thinking about Uncle Dior a figure came out behind a big banyan tree.

"Holy! What took you so long" Uncle Dior questioned just when his eyes widened in surprise when he saw the half-elf sleeping in Don's arms. Clapping his hands gladly, he almost shouted out loud: "You saved her"

Don nodded his head lightly

"Bryan what... what happened?" Uncle Dior mumbled.

"He's dead"

Uncle Dior breathes out a heavy sigh of relief when he heard Don although he believed in Don, he still wanted to hear from the man killed Bryan himself.

"We should get out before the guards come looking," Don said.

"Can you walk fastly carrying her?"

"We are flying," Don said simply and controlled the air element around Uncle Dior using his battle energy with his fingers and took off from the ground at high speed like an eagle, the dust on the ground they were standing, wiped away from the force Don took off. It made a distinctive nearly a six feet radius circular mark on the ground.

"You son of a ahhhhhhhhhhh"
