The three boys watched the scene with wide eyes. Just before they go away to find Sungyeol everything still goes very well. Sunggyu then decided to arrest one of the villagers who was fleeing to ask him the question.

 

-Can I know what caused this fire? He asked before looking back at the scene facing him.
-The demons for sure! replied the panicked villager. The children said they saw a dark mass in the sky and soon after the flames started to appear ...

 

-Don't worry Yeollie it isn't like the last time ... he whispered in a comforting voice. We will make sure no one is hurt okay?

 

The boy timidly nodded and the other boy smiled. He caressed his hair affectionately before turning away to leave the village too. He ce in a moment to the person he considered like his brother, who was staring at him for a long time as if he were communicating. The archer sighed before finally accepting what Sungyeol seemed to say before finally leaving, asking him to wait for them here. Myungsoo had watched the scene from the beginning. He was now alone with the person he suspected to be the chosen one. To kill him wouldn't be complicated since his two "bodyguards" had gone mostly the older man who seemed to be the worst of the two. He then approached the mute, his hand on the pommel of his sword. The boy looked up at that moment and put his eyes on Myungsoo's. This look destabilized him a little because the youngest seemed to see beyond his gaze as if he could see his soul. Myungsoo could kill him, or rather he had to kill him. It was for his family. If he didn't do it it was they who suffered. After all, he didn't know this guy he had just helped him get his leg out of the rubble. It was then that he saw his victim turn his head towards a house. By listening, one could clearly hear the crying of a child. He didn't have to worry about it after all he didn't know these people so it did not make him hot or cold. Only the crying seemed to be gaining intensity. And it was at that moment that he saw a piece of the house collapse. He took a deep breath, his decision being taken, he drew his sword, determined.

 

A little further, Sunggyu had helped flee a good part of the villagers. On one side of his sleeve, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and with his other hands lifted a portion of his cloak to cover part of his face and thus avoid breathing too much smoke from the fire. He later tried to concentrate and use his psychic powers to try to find out how many people he needs to save.Only, absorbing too much by the use of his powers, he didn't notice that a piece of the frame of the building in which he had just unhooked and fall right on him. Sunggyu noticed that too late and when he had folded his arms over his head in a vain attempt at protection, he was sliced ​​in half before he could touch him.

 

-Well, we can say that I arrive at the right moment. Remarked the person who had acted as he approached Sunggyu. You're okay? You shouldn't stay here it's dangerous.
-Who ... Who are you? Finished by asking Sunggyu ignoring the last remark the stranger had made him.
-Nam Woohyun nice to meet you.

 

And with these words, the two boys left leaving Woohyun alone, who seemed to think about something.

 

-A mercenary? He murmured thoughtfully. He's probably talking about Myungsoo I'd better follow them.

 

And he ends up leaving in pursuit of the two men. When they arrived at their destination, they froze in front of the scene facing them, Sungyeol was kneeling on the ground and Myungsoo was facing him with his long sword in his hands. Sunggyu then imagined the worst and rushed to the mute. Only he was relieved to see that if the youngest was on the ground it was because he was holding a child crying in his arms. He then explained to him through telepathy that L had saved this boy, using his blade to clear a passage, and that it was directed to the only person who was familiar to him to try to get a feeling of protection. Obviously, the mercenary had done it for Sungyeol because he had a debt to him and now they were gone. Woohyun, meanwhile, had confirmation that the person that the two brothers had mentioned earlier was indeed his friend. But while everyone was celebrating their reunion, the villagers came to them, including the mother of the child who was still crying in Sungyeol's arms. Only, against all odds, the woman uttered no thanks and instead slapped Sungyeol. His head turned to the side because of the violence of the impact and put a shaky hand on his aching cheek but didn't try to meet the woman's eyes. Sunggyu and Sungjong were the first to react.

 

-Are you crazy?! The two brothers exclaimed with one voice. Can we know why you're picking on him like that ?!
-It's all his fault! Replied one of the villagers. Since he is in this village they come to us only misfortunes!
-It is true! Murdering his family in a fire wasn't enough for him, he had to take the village in a fire too. Add another villager.
-You're ... Sunggyu got upset and decided to tell people what he thinks about their attitude toward the youngest.
