Chapter 81

Jake just arrived after completing his mission at Redwood city, he saw that there was a commotion going on near the restaurant where his mother worked and decided to check what was going on over there .

Jake saw that her mother was bleeding profusely as some people from the restaurant were helping her .

Watching this scene Jake was able to control his feelings as he saw her mother bleeding and thought, 'Surprisingly I was able to control my feelings when I saw mom Bleeding, back in the past I would have surely been enraged and acted rashly . It seems that my Training had a lot of effects on my body but it was the mental state that changed me the most . I wouldn't have realized about this unless I encountered such an incident . '

Jake calmly approached her mother as he saw her bleeding as he wanted to know about the situation, as soon as he saw Evan Laguna he understood what was going on over here . He remembered the past events as he saw Evan .

'I don't know if I should regret or rejoice over helping that poor girl Barbara from the hedonistic schemes of this Silkpant Duke Laguna . This time he will pay dearly for hurting mom . I will make sure he feels that same amount of pain that I did all these months as a slave at Pearl city .

Jake looked at Evan sharply, this clearly reflected his cold demeanor and killing intentions .

Evan smiled as he saw Jake and said, "So it seems your whole family was bought here, From the looks, it seems you still haven't changed that annoying look from your face . I guess your master is taking good care of you . You should just have behaved like a slave just like your mother as you are a slave . I wonder if your master would choose to protect you and your family or he would rather choose to offend me and house Laguna for mere slaves . "

Evan's knights talked among themselves

The first knight said, "The Lord here is a mere honorary Baron on the outskirts of the borders with a few good institutions which could be ruined anytime . I am sure, the baron here will fawn over Lord Evan like all the others . "

Other Knight said, "That's not quite true, The Baron here had previously offended Prince Hector indirectly at the auction so we can't be sure . "

The first knight grinned and said, "I guess you don't know the full story, many say that the baron here was clearly ignorant of the factions and how they worked in the upper class and hence he unknowingly offended Prince Hector . I am sure that the baron is currently regretting his actions and hence tried to make allies at the south in hopes of getting protection but the geography alone won't help him even if they wished to help his domain . He could at most get small help from them and a lot of his money will eventually be squeezed out by those traders in the south . I think the Lord is trying to show this baron his place by putting him in a difficult position . "

Another Knight said, "I guess this is because of Lord's long travel to get good food here as he heard about it and eventually meeting this family that pissed him off . Additionally, buying them wasn't a problem but treating them like valued slaves is what pissed off lord more as he hoped to teach this family a lesson as that boy previously ruined our plans . "

The first knight raised his sword pointed at Jake and said to him, "Hey Kid why aren't you kneeling now that you are in front of Lord Evan? Don't you know the laws for slaves?"

Dearil meanwhile was watching this show keenly as he thought, 'Let's see how he deals with this situation, he is quite calm unlike what I thought previously . It seems he is currently analyzing his opponent and his chances of succeeding . It seems analyzing his opponents has become an instinct for him after his training period .
