"Julia's Mansion..."
Knock-knock-Knock
A servant opened the gate and asked, "Yes, what do you want?"
"I have to inform Madam Julia about the incident that took place in the Main Market," a civilian, approximately 5'6" tall, spoke with a very tense expression.
"Come in," the servant said, sensing the gravity of the matter.
"Thank you..."
Julia's Room...
Julia was getting ready for her duty, equipping her swords and daggers.
Knock-knock-Knock
'Hmm...? Who is it, so early in the morning?' Julia wondered as she looked at the door.
"Who is it?" Julia asked aloud.
"I am Jack, Madam," a voice came from outside.
"Jack? Come in," Julia spoke.
Click
The door opened, and two men entered the room. One was the servant who had opened the door, and the other was the civilian.
"Miss Julia, I greet you," the civilian immediately bowed to Julia.
"Hello, is something the matter?" Julia asked, looking at Jack.
"This gentleman here has an urgent report. I will leave you two alone for now," Jack said as he exited the room.
"Okay... So, what is it that you want to report?" Julia asked with a smile.
"Ma'am, there has been a significant accident today in the main market. A human destroyed the Douglas Mansion and killed everyone inside," the civilian reported.
"What?" Julia exclaimed, immediately standing up from her chair and looking at the civilian with a shocked expression.
"Yes, ma'am. It's true. We have to get there as soon as possible."
"Let's go; we leave now," Julia said as she exited the room hastily, wearing a serious expression.
The civilian immediately followed Julia, and they left the mansion together.
"Damn... What happened to the Douglas Twins? Are they dead as well?" Julia asked.
"Yes, ma'am. I saw them enter the mansion with my own eyes," the civilian replied.
"Shit..." Julia cursed as she opened the door and quickly got into a waiting carriage with the civilian.
"How much time has passed since this incident took place?" Julia asked.
"About 10 minutes ago, ma'am."
"10 minutes? You reached my mansion in just 10 minutes? How is that possible?" Julia asked with a serious expression.
"I came in a carriage, ma'am," the civilian replied.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I just thought that you came on foot because of your appearance and all... Let's just forget it. Can you describe that human's appearance... His face, ears, or eyes?" Julia asked with a serious expression.
"Ma'am, he is still there," the civilian replied, fear evident in his voice as he got goosebumps.
"What? He is still there? Why would he do that?" Julia asked with a confused expression.
"Ma'am, he was the one who sent me to tell you about this, and he was the one who paid for my carriage to your house," the civilian replied.
"What?" Julia spoke in a shocked tone as she looked at the civilian with a confused expression.
'Who is this guy? Why would he report himself? Is this a trap for me?' Julia wondered as she prepared some of her best spells and her finest swords, getting ready for what might come next.
Screeeeeeeeeeeeech
The carriage suddenly stopped.
"We are here, madam," the driver informed as he stepped down and opened the gate for Julia.
Julia got out of the carriage and saw a view that seemed like a dream.
The destruction was massive, stretching from the Douglas house to the 79th block of the Dark Elven territory.
She looked around and spotted a man sitting on a wooden chair in front of where the Douglas Mansion once stood.
He had long black hair and a well-built physique, as seen from the back.
Julia immediately unsheathed her sword and cautiously approached him.
Suddenly, she heard him mumbling something. She silently closed the distance and attempted to listen to what the man was saying.
?? This man's just got to go", declared his enemies, But the ladies begged, "Don't you try to do it, please"??
?? No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms, Though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms ??
'Is he singing after killing so many people?' Julia thought, her anger flaring.
"Who the heck are you? How dare you enter the Elven Kingdom? How dare you kill so many innocent people with families? Identify yourself, you human bastard," Julia demanded as she pointed her sword directly at Anon's throat.
"My, my... Aren't you an angry young lady, Miss Julia?" Anon spoke as he stood up and turned to face her.
The moment he looked at Julia, she felt something deep within. It was as if she had encountered this person before. His deep red eyes mesmerized her.
"Who are you? If you don't tell me, I will kill you, and no one will save you," Julia asked again, her voice quivering.
'Why am I feeling this? It's like I've met this person before, but I can't remember where. He has an aura that's oddly familiar... but I can't recall where else I've felt this aura,' Julia wondered as she gazed at Anon, a mix of confusion and determination in her eyes.
"Heh... You look quite cute when you play with these toys, but it's time to set them aside and have a little chat," Anon said as he grabbed the tip of Julia's sword with just two fingers, forcefully taking it from her hand.
Anon tossed the sword aside and firmly grasped Julia's right hand with his left, placing his right hand on her waist as he drew her closer.
"What are you—?" Julia began to react, her training kicking in. She attempted to reach for her dagger, but Anon interrupted her.
"Don't do it, or everyone here watching us will become lifeless corpses. Trust me, I'm not joking about this," Anon said with an evil grin as he stared at Julia.
"What do you want?" Julia asked with a serious expression, immediately stopping her attempt to reach for her dagger.
"Place your left hand on my right shoulder, love," Anon instructed.
Julia glanced around and noticed many elderly and children among the onlookers.
'I have to follow his orders for now, or they'll suffer...' Julia thought as she complied, putting her left hand on Anon's right shoulder.
"What now?" Julia asked with an angry expression.
"Now, we dance," Anon declared as he began to waltz with Julia in front of the onlookers.
