"Sorry to hear about what happened to your mother." Kai just shook her head and smiled at Marco.
"Nah. Gotten used to it. Would you like to hear more?" Ace rejoiced as Marco smiled at them.
A few years later since I started to protect my hometown, a few villagers called me. They said they found five unconscious passengers in a boat. I flew in the shore and found what they are talking about. Five unconscious and bleeding passengers are lying on the boat. Must've been in a shipwreck. I landed and checked their pulse and they are barely breathing. I ordered the villagers to get them in the hospital for them to be treated.
After a week, one of the villagers called me saying that one of them woke up. I flew there and saw a man with a wavy hair being checked by a couple of nurses. One of the nurses saw me.
"Guardian… one of them are awake." I nodded at them as a response and motioned them to leave. When the whole ward is no longer occupied by nurses, I walked towards the patient. I sat on the feet side of the bed and adjusted my hat covering my eye. I wasn't looking at him actually. My whole body face the other direction. I can still see him in my peripheral vision.
"You are in my hometown if that's what you're asking." In my peripheral vision he is somewhat startled that I said something.
"What's your name?" I added. It took a moment before he answered my question.
"Why would I tell you my name?" I coughed. What a disrespectful manner. But I just shrugged it off.
"So Mr. Why would I tell you my name, you must have been in a fight. Your wounds are undefinable. You might be killed if my villagers haven't found you." He looked from his side to side and when he saw his friends are there his tense shoulders slightly relaxed.
"Oh come on Kai! Tell us more." Kai just laughed at Ace and shook her head.
"We are already here. Right Marco?" Marco smiled and nodded his head.
"Yeah, we're here." They reached the mountain without even noticing it because of getting caught up with Kai's life story. They landed on the shore. They looked around and saw a village. Not exactly empty because the people living here is obviously asleep because it's midnight. They walked into the village, found an opened inn and settled there.
