Physics The Greatest Magic

Chapter 201 - The Young Boy And Girl

After getting john's suit, the group were headed to the next closest tailor where they specialised on dresses for girls 

As they passed through the streets, John watched as the poor kids continued to play around with an expression of Joy on their faces 

The streets were slightly clean, the commoners were forced to clean them after all, but no matter what happened, there'd always be a difference in treatment. The world was an unfair place after all. But even the poor can be happy with what they have. 

"While the rich, thirst for more..." John muttered 

"Hm? Did you say something?" Serena asked as she suddenly turned to him, stopping their conversation. 

"Nothing at all..." John muttered as he looked outside 

Hearing this, the two looked a little confused, but continued on with their girl talk. John was a bit bored and lonely, despite having no interest in girl talk, he couldn't think of anything to talk about. 

John quietly watched as one of the kids, a young boy, who was playing tag with another young girl and their friends. 

[Look at how happy they look... If I ever make a city or kingdom, I'd make sure everyone would be happy.] John thought to himself 

Suddenly, the two kids who were playing tag with their friends, bumped into a man. He seemed to be slightly over 6 foot and appeared to be drunk. 

[This carriage is moving rather slowly.] 

There was another carriage in front, giving John enough time to see the whole situation. The man began talking and despite John being quite a distance away, he could hear it over the other sounds which came from food stalls, people walking and talking. 

"Hey! Brats! You just got my shirt dirty... You'll have to pay for a new one!" 

[What? Is this guy serious? More importantly, I'm not even using magic to increase my senses and yet I can still clearly hear them...] 

The two kids in front of him were terrified, so much that they began to shake in their spots while their friends ran away as fast as they could while shouting "Retreat!". The guy towered over them, they looked no older than 6. 

The girl moved in front of the boy with his legs trembling as she said 

"S-Sorry... W-We don't have any m-money..." 

They both had the look of terror in their eyes, well it was normal. Especially when the guy was releasing his bloodlust. 

"No money...? Tch, guess I'll just sell you off as slaves." Said the man as he stretched out his hands 

"W-We didn't do-" 

Before she could finish, the boy grabbed on to the girl's hand before pulling her away from the guy 

"Run!" He shouted before the two began to run 

The man who saw this formed a small grin on his face before chasing after them. They took a turn along with the man and disappeared from John's line of sight. 

"So it was intentional... He planned this from the start." John muttered with a small grin 

John got up and began doing a few stretches, seeing this, Ariel asked 

"John, are you going somewhere?" 

"Mhm, I'll be back soon. How much longer till we get there, Master?" John asked 

"1 Minute, Be quick." Said Master Sylvia 

Hearing this, John happily nodded before hopping off the moving carriage. 

"Now, Let's test out this sacred treasure..." John muttered 

------------------------- 

The kids ran and ran as hard as they can, going through crowds of people, hoping that the man would give up, but he showed no signs of doing so. 

He continued to chase after them, as if there was nothing more important. 

"H-HELP!" 

"PLEASE!" 

The two cried out for help but there was no reply, no knights could be seen in the area, and most of the civilians just ignored it, as if it was something normal. 

Seeing this, the kids had no choice but to somehow shake him off. They took a sharp left turn straight into the alley, hoping that they would be able to find a path that only they could fit through. 

And once they did, they found it. A small hole on the wall which they would be able to get through 

"Quick! You firs-" 

The boy suddenly stopped talking when he realised that the girl was no longer with him. He turned around and noticed that she had been caught by the guy 

"You have some nerve, trying to get away from me..." Said the man as he gripped tightly on to the girls hand 

The girl tried struggling out of his grip scratching at his hand and even biting it, but she had no luck. 

"Quiet..." 

The guy stretched out his right hand and gripped on to the girls head 

"AAH!!" She cried out in pain 

The boy watched, desperately trying to think of something to do. They were in an alley, so they could only go forward and back. On top of that, they were the only ones there. 

Anyone who passed through on the outside showed no interest. But he couldn't just sit back and watch without doing anything. The boy noticed a piece of broken grass on the ground, and without even thinking about it. 

He rushed over to it, and picked it up before charging straight at the man who was about to slam his friend on to the wall. 

"LET HER GO!!" The boy shouted 

"Oh...? I finally found you after all this time. Sit back quietly." Said the man as he sent a kick straight at the boy's head 

The boy ducked just in time, barely avoiding and stretched out his dagger straight towards the man's arm. 

But before he could pierce it, the man suddenly moved the girl in the way In the last second. And in that moment, the boy tripped. 

"Sacred Treasure Art..." 

The broken glass on his hand got closer and closer to the girls, he couldn't stop it, he tried moving his hand, but wasn't fast enough. 

He was going to stab her at this rate 

"WAI-" 

"Modero." Translation: Slow down
