An old wagon was riding along a rocky path,the old wagon made out wood seemed like it could fall apart at any moment, inside the wagon there were people chained, the people were extremely malnourished,their faces were ashen, a rotten smell filled the inside of the wagon.

Suddenly the old wagon came to a halt. the slaves inside the wagon shook and some fell down, but without any strength they could only stay put, so as not to waste any important energy.

There was a person in the wagon’s way, it was a young man with a black hood and white trousers, he stood there in front of the wagon.

A old soldier with an angry expression, jumped off the wagon and said

“Hey Kid, get out of the fucking way”

…….

The young man didn’t answer just stayed still like a statue

“Kid,are you deaf?!”

The old soldier said furiously as he took out his sword

……..

The young man remained silent.

“I will fucking kill you kid!”

The old man snapped and charged towards the young man , holding his sword preparing to slash, when he was about to slash the young man , the old soldier noticed his arm was cut off

*AAAAHHHH*

The old soldier fell back and he screamed in agony then lost conscience.

“What happened”

Four more soldiers jumped off the wagon,upon seeing what had happened they immediately charged towards the young man.

In an instant the young man dodged all their attacks , and swiftly kicked the soldier to his left , breaking the soldier’s arm, then he grabbed another soldier to his right and viciously kneed him in the stomach.

*POW*

Both the soldiers fell down unconscious, the other two soldiers backed away shocked, after seeing their comrades easily defeated by an unarmed young man.

The two soldiers scared uttered.

“Who are you”

……..

The young man didn’t answer.

“This is just a 3rd tier slave wagon, it’s not worth anything”

The older of the two soldiers nervously said , with hope that it would convince the young man to let them go.

The older soldier rubbing his hands together with a worried expression said

“Could you please let us pass, we can compensate you”

..

The young man like a flash charged towards the two soldiers , quickly punching the one to the right in the face , while rotating his body and elbowing the other soldier in the chest.

*PAW*

The young man whispered, “Filthy rats”, it was easy to notice the disdain in his words.

With the four guardsmen now all unconscious, the young man slowly walked towards the old wagon. The slaves inside the wagon just hearing screams, did not knowing what had happened, the wagon door suddenly opened, the people in the wagon cowered back in fear.

“This is pretty disgusting”

The young man said as he looked at the state of the people kept inside the wagon. The slaves in the wagon just stared at the young man in a trance.

“Are you guys, just going to stay there”

The young man under his robe had a confused expression. The slaves inside the wagon hesitated for a moment then rushed out of the disgusting wagon. As all the slaves were rushing out of wagon the young man just stood there watching the scene , when people had left the the wagon, the young man checked inside again, there was little girl still lying there.

The young man walked into the wagon, curious as to why the little girl was still there then he asked her.

“Oi,Why didn’t you leave?”

The little girl didn’t even flinch , she was wearing some ragged clothes,she looked sickly and extremely malnourished, she had long blonde hair, and looked 12 or 13 years old at most.

One of the others slaves said

“Don’t bother, that girl is half dead”

…..

The young man ignored the slave and picked up the little girl in his arms ,the little girl was unconscious, her breathing was faint , she was really weak, her face was heavily bruised , the young man carefully carried her out of the wagon.

This girl is in a really bad state , if she isn't treated immediately , she will in less than three days.

as the young man left the wagon with the little girl in his arms , he announced loudly.

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

“from now on, you are free people”

“I never thought i would be free again”

an old man said as he teared up in joy

The former slaves were truly delighted and thanked the young man.

“Now you must think about what you want to do”

the young man said in an assertive tone.

Then the young man turned his back to them and with the little girl on his arms, shook off his hood and prepared to run off.

the teary eyed old man yelled out.

“Wait, young man, please I want to know at least know the name of my benefactor”

The young man was silent for a moment then he faintly said.

“Raven”

____________________________

Raven with the little girl in his arms, after running for about half and hour inside the forest, he found a place he could use for camping, Raven decided to stop there and think about a treatment for the little girl,the little girl was still unconscious, but she seemed to be having a nightmare,and she was sweating a lot.

Raven set the little girl down and got water from a nearby river and helped her drink it , then finally the little girl settled down and stopped sweating, raven then quickly went out into the forest to hunt to get some much needed food for the starving little girl.

Three months had passed since Raven’s transformation, his body grew much stronger and all his senses were boosted.

His eyesight now was as sharp as an eagle’s.

His hearing was incredibly acute.

His sense of smell was as good as a fox’s.

Raven as he ran through the forest picked up some medical herbs along the way, then he spotted a wild boar drinking water from a river, he swiftly and silently approached and crouched behind a bush waiting for a chance to kill the unaware boar, with great accuracy raven jumped out of the bush and easily pierced the boar’s temple with his fingers.

Raven grabbed the dead boar , it was quite a big boar, but Raven picked up like it was some straw, and he immediately ran back to the camp.

When Raven arrived back at the camp,he had taken less than thirty minutes to go and come back, the little girl was still unconscious , she seemed scared like she was having a terrible nightmare.

Raven quickly started up a fire to cook the boar, as the boar cooked, Raven grinded the medical herb,artemisia, into in a white powder then he added boiling water to it and it became a white liquid.

It’s ready

Raven shook the little girl for her to wake up. The little girl finally opened her eyes , her charming emerald green eyes looked directly at Raven , then she suddenly scrambled back in and in fear.

“Don’t be scared, you shouldn’t move around in that condition”

“Who are you!”

The little girl said, tears were forming in her pretty eyes.

Raven said sincerely.

“My name is Raven, calm down, I won’t hurt you”

The little was still a bit scared but decided to trust Raven for now.

“Here is some medicine, it should help you regain some strength”

Raven offered her the medicine with a smile on his face

The little girl was still alarmed, but she took the medicine and obediently drank it.

“The boar is ready ”

the little girl looked over at the cooked boar and started drooling.

Raven took out a dagger and cut the boar is into medium sized pieces , then he took a piece.

Raven said as he gave the little girl a piece of the boar’s meat.

“Here eat it”

The little girl was peckish and hastily took the piece of meat and instantly gulped it down like a savage.

“I have not asked yet, what is your name?”

The little girl stopped eating for a moment and then faintly replied

“M-M-Maya”

Raven said

“that’s a nice name”

After a few minutes the little girl had eaten more than half of the boar by herself,Raven was already satisfied and wanted to ask a few questions to the little girl.

how did such a little girl become a slave.

I am a bit curious about it but i guess i should wait for her to open up to me.

Raven thought for a second then said.

“We are going to stay here until you recover some of your strength”

The little girl after finally satisfying her hunger quietly nodded.
