He opened his eyes to a massive headache, which was weird to say the least? He didnt even remember falling asleep? Just what the hell had happened? Wheels of the carriage were scattered around, next to him lay a woman's corpse, it was Melissa.

He tried screaming in terror but no words came out of him, he felt pain on his throat? As if someone had stabbed him? In fact thats exactly what had happened, the only reason why he could survive getting his throat cut was the purple parchment.

He tried using his mind into calling it out, and the parchment listened.

What happened? He tried thinking these words in hope that the parchment could listen to his mental voice? In hope that this otherworldly parchment would answer him.

- Its too long to explain all that happened, but if you use all your energy I can show you .

But if he used all of it, he would be super weak? What if he passed out and died to wild animals?

-extract life energy from the corpses to activate a random teleport option, anywhere would be better than here. The attackers might come to collect your body so decide fast .

Brother parchment sure knew how to make people go along with what he wanted by using their fears.

As brave as Irwin thought he was, he was scared of death so he quickly agreed, and once again he found his inner self dragged into a memory .

After traveling for 3 hours on carriage, 10 Stenly Knights led by a woman on maid clothing cut their way, and after giving some strange signal the Knight Lucius hit Irwin behind his head and he passed out instantly.

That movement also startled his maid Melissa who pulled out a hidden dagger and tried to stab Lucius, but how can an ordinary maid kill a knight?

Lucius quickly grabbed her dagger and stabbed her straight to the heart, she fell dead in seconds with her eyes filled in terror. Just who would have thought that the maid who treated him like shit growing up would give her life to protect him .

Melissa was his first woman and he had grown really attached to her, he wanted to burst down crying but he was not in his physical form.

Even tears would not respond to him by coming out, just how pathetic was he?

Wilson used some sort of mana barrier on Irwin and with a magic missle sent Lucius flying, but all the knights outside rushed in and cut him into hundreds of pieces leaving him unable to even finish a sentance, unable to utter a single word!

The knights kicked the carriage open and they dragged His and Melissa's body out.

" Such a shame, she was quite the beauty? She would have made a fine whore "

A knight on red armour made a joke and the rest started laughing, Irwin was filled with rage .

" Hey Stephanie, what do we do with the bastard? "

" He is right miss stephanie, why did the madam sent us all the way here to kill this poor bastard?"

The maid pulled out her sword, walked slowly behind them and whispered:

" Thats something you will never know "

A massive mana slash had them all killed at the same time, the slash curved into a big enough crescent that managed to cut them all.

Even a maid had such power, Irwin had grown too arrogant over nothing. These people managed to bring his end so quickly, if it wasnt for the purple parchment.....

The maid walked closely to the Irwin who had passed out, with her maid uniform covered completely in blood and surrounded by the bodies of knights scattered all around her.

" All that fuss over a handsome good for nothing bastard? Why did Madam even fear you in the first place? So what if your mother was an elf ? You seem pretty useless if you ask me? "

She gave him a clean cut on his neck and walked slowly away like a demon. He continued to watch her until she disappeared on the horizon, and thats when the memory finished and he was pulled to the realm of the living .

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

He felt so weak, all 17 of his lp were taken by the parchment to show him that memory, but what did she even mean when she said his mother was en elf? Edgar had told him his mother was a bitch maid, is that why Edgar treated him like he did?

Did he always know Irwin would be targeted ? And who the fuck was madam? Why did she hate him this much? He had so many questions but he had no time to think over those things, wolf wailings were being heard so he supported himself up as quickly as he could. The wound on his throat was healing in rapid speed but the downside of it was that everytime an energy point regenerated in his pool, the parchment would take it in return for healing him.

" brother parchment youre very stingy but I wont complain, thanks to you i am still alive "

That was the first thing he said after his voice recovered, and as he saw the wolves gather all around him he used extraction on all the dead bodies around except for Melissa's .

He put her corpse on his back, and after enough energy was gathered, the parchment used what it called ' random teleportation ' which cost all the 50 energy points extracted .

His vision dissapeared and once more , he found himself on one hell of a disturbing ride .

As for the Stenly household, all the family elders had gathered in the great hall just to find out that their noble lord was not sitting in the throne.

The one sat there was in fact his eldest son Rodrick Stenly, and on his feet lay his own father the viscount who was pretty much a corpse .

" What is the meaning of this young master Rodrick? How dare you kill your own father?

This is treason , how dare you take the lords position through usurping? "

" How could I not kill him high elder Joffrey? This foolish father of mine decided to announce his bastard son as his heir? How could we all stand for such a disgrace? Just because he fell in love with a maid and fathered a bastard, should our family have to pay for it? "

" We cant believe this, where is this bastard that you speak of? Let us listen to what he has to say as well"

" He is dead "

A soft voice was heard from the door and a woman walked in and sat in the edge of the lord's seat.

" Madam? Did you say he was dead "

The woman removed her veil and her unmatched beauty fell like rays of sunlight on that dark and gloomy room.

A woman though she was , nobody dared disrespect her, since she was also the 3d princess of the royal family married to the Stenly household .

" my father the king ordered his death, how dare he insult the royal leanage by disregarding me for a cheap whore and make her bastard as heir? "

Knowing that the king had orchestrated this situation they had to shut up, as unhappy as they were there was no point crying over spilled milk.

Going against the king wasnt going to bring the viscount back to life, they had to think about their own well-being now and try to benefit from this situation .

In reality the king was forbidden from intefearing with the noble households affairs, which is why he started marrying his daughters to members of nobility, so these snake like women would control the households from behind the scenes.

The noble faction was strong enough to oppose royalty so obviously the king had to hold his power by relying on such cheap tactics .

Irwin and his father were just collateral damage.

After hours long of discussions, the princess brought out chests of gold and after paying the elders enough to keep their mouth shut, her eldest son Rodrick became the lord of the Stenlys. But unfortunately for him and with Irwin still around, his future would be one full of fear and misery.
