‘Greed....Greed.....Demons calling for my soul ughh, leave me alone. If I could give everything to you my passion and everything you see, just for you to leave me, jealously, envy and greed’

.............

Looking at the young girl in front of him the man smiled and nodded his head.

"Have I ever lied to you Miss Aria? Your father said the situation in the place is now stable so you should return now where you'll be safe"

"Mhmm hmmm yes let's go"

Aria was incredibly excited before chaos really broke out in the city her father had told her to leave the city as soon as possible but the guards that had accompanied her were all killed and she didn't know her way around the city so all she could do was hide.

............

She and her teacher had been walking for quite a while now but they were still quite a distance from the palace.

"Q, I'm tired carry me"

The man named Q complied and put her on his back and began walking towards the palace.

Without warning the little girl started struggling and hitting him

"Put me down now!"

It hadn’t even been a few seconds since he started walking with her.

"Is something the matter?"

Q was confused why did she start hitting him and asking him to put her down all of a sudden.

"How dare you? You smell absolutely horrid yet you dare to carry me? Do you not love your life?"

"Princess you should be mindful of other people's feelings"

Q had thought she was joking so he just gently laughed and then reached out his hand to take a hold of hers but she dodged his hand.

"You dare to still try to touch me!! I will have the guards at the palace remove your hands since you no longer need them! Don't touch me just lead the way I will continue to walk on my own"

Q did not move he just stood there in a daze

"Are you deaf? I said m-"

Before the words could leave her mouth she felt like a hammer was slammed onto her chest followed a suffocating pain.

"You fucking little bitch! Do you think you’re in a position to order me around? Do you think you’re still a princess?"

Q had completely be driven up the wall after he tried helping her, he never imagined she would still be so disrespectful.

Aria was curled up on the ground clutching her stomach trying her best to regain her normal breathing

"I....I'll.....ha...ve.......ou......h.....hanged"

Q had thought that she was going to apologize so he allowed her to speak but after hearing what she said his heart turned ice cold.

'You'll have me hanged?.......'

"Looks like I'll have to teach you some manners"

Q didn't waste a moment he immediately walked over to her and immediately started stomping her without mercy.

"Fuck! I've dreamt about doing this for so long! Don't you have anything to say you little bitch! Speak up I can't hear you!"

Q knew fully well that she was unconscious and based on the soft feeling under his feet he knew that he had smashed a couple ribs as well as broken an arm and a leg in several places but he didn't care in the least he felt like a weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

Aria saw her servants more as tools than actual people and because her father was king they had no choice but to obey with a smile but now that the city was under siege and she still dared to be so disrespectful towards him, if he didn't teach her a lesson he'd probably die from anger and who would be more suited than him to teacher her that lesson? He was her teacher after all.

Letting out a deep long breath he picked up the now unconscious Aria and began walking toward the palace, his head held a bit higher and his back a bit straighter.

The palace wasn't as far away as she made it seem but then again she didn’t use to do much walking on her own, she'd normally be carried, it was a wonder how she wasn't fat.

"What kind of fucking monsters are these?"

He wasn't very far from the palace when he heard a soldier’s shout.

Sneaking a peek at where the voice was coming from he was shocked when he saw the soldiers that looked like demonic monsters crushing the cities, soldiers

'Who are those guy?......and why do they seem familiar.......'

"What are you doing we have to run now!......... That's Xan's immortal fucking army we all going to die! If we don't run!"

“Fuck this am not dying here!.....”

Q was deep in thought trying to remember where he'd seen that armor before but when he heard that soldiers shout he was immediately brought back to reality.

'Xan?.....which Xan?......immortal army?.....Oh, fuck why is he here!?'

It took him awhile but he finally remembered where he'd seen that armor before, well he's never seen it in person before today but he's seen drawings of it but once he put the words Xan and Immortal together he immediately remembered who it was.

It might seem like he was thinking for a while but it only took him a split second to realize the danger, he even realized it before the soldiers running off before them to reach the palace.

He'd long since made up his mind to sell Aria to the man at the head of the army, although he nor anyone else knew who it was one thing they knew was they he was offering a thousand gold to bring her to him alive and a hundred gold if she was dead but the body had to be intact so it could be proven that it was her.

When Q was running he looked like an Olympic champion he was not slowing down for anything, dodging the swords of the soldiers left and right like a world-class gymnast while still running like death was right behind him and he did not plan on dying today.

There were no guards at the gate because everyone already ran inside and since Q had worked at the palace for quite a while before he knew his way around like it was his own home so he just headed straight for throne room since it was the only place that would fit a lot of people and also the only place that was worthy of someone in power he wasn't wrong.

When he burst through the door he felt like maybe he should turn back, the hall was lined with soldiers some were in silver armor while others wore leather but the still look fierce.

Although this wasn't the first time seeing so many soldiers in the throne room but these weren't exactly civil times so…

What was out of his expectation was that no one even turned to glance at him.

Taking a good look around he saw a man in his fifties standing around with some other old men just like himself, at just a glance he could tell that the good-looking old man was in charge because the other old men had their heads slightly lowered when they spoke to him.

"Uhmm...Excuse me, my lord, I have the princess"

It was only when he mentioned that he had the princess that the good-looking old man turned around and looked towards Q who was kneeling on the ground trembling slightly, the old man didn't say anything he just simply gestured to one of the guards to bring the girl to him.

"This is indeed the princess….mhmm hand him a gold coin and see him out, also get a bed and a doctor"

Speaking in a tone that was neither disrespectful nor respectful the man didn’t even take a glance at Q.

As the man finished speaking one of the guards took out a coin and threw it in front of Q while another guard went to get a bed and the doctor.

"M...My Lord, the reward…..I..I was told it was a thousand gold"

Q didn't intend to take this lying down it didn't matter if it was a lord the fact that he brought the princess meant that he's basically given up on his career as a teacher, who would hire a traitor? not getting another job would be the best case scenario worst case he gets killed by the people for betraying the princess.

That thousand gold was supposed to be used to start a new life!.
