Chapter 6, The Villain Who Kidnapped the Beautiful Girl

... ...

Who is Morun

Have you heard about Morun's situation

Before the dining table could touch the ground, the menacing Reikawa had already flashed out from behind, swinging his blade to strike. The knight's squire, with his vision obstructed, only then realized what was happening; his arm was numb and sore from the collision, rendering him unable to raise his sword to block, and he could only leap back.

Escape? Desperation? Let me think it over again

Rekawa looked at the girl with suspicion. The girl gazed at him with her big, watery eyes, looking pitiful: "With me as a hostage, they definitely wouldn't dare to kill you... I promise!"

Rekawa did not respond. While he was tying the rope, his movements suddenly came to a halt

Hehe, suit yourself, you may very well take your secrets to the grave

A poor girl who has been drained

Why do you keep talking about death every three sentences? Is life so cheap in your eyes?

"Are you joking? Do you really want to go against the Lanruosi family?" Ruikawa was amused.

Moreover, I see that you come from a noble background, and those pursuing you are officials and soldiers, so your life must be worth something. Of course, this is just a general situation... I wonder if it applies to that mad dog.

Is the brothel up there? The young girl stared at the building on the high ground, an abandoned old church, where the burn marks on the church's exterior were clearly visible under the moonlight

"Not... not yet..." the little soldier said timidly

Refusal

Outside the door, shadows of people flicker

"Indeed, I have walked into a dead end," Ruikawa said with a bitter smile. "From the moment I refused to remain silent and impulsively drew my sword, I was already dead. I was filled with anger at the time and did not think much about the consequences. Tch, what bad luck, why did the gods have to let me encounter such a thing"

What?" Ruikawa was stunned in shock

This is a punishment for your rudeness

Hmph, are you really planning to just stay here and wait to die

Capture that traitor! There are heavy rewards in the inner city!

"Hehe, there is no turning back now." Ruikawa stood up, leaning against the wall, and walked towards the window. "The best strategy is to remain silent from beginning to end."

No, no, no! I want to help! Do you understand helping?" The young girl stood tall with her chest out, defiantly resisting and discussing the matter.

As she walked to the stone steps, the young girl turned around and looked at Ruikawa

"Don't mention the brothel! I was just joking with you! Listen, stay calm, I'm being hunted right now, and you are my hostage, do you understand?" After saying this, Ruikawa rushed straight to an abandoned shack next to the old church, kicked open the decaying wooden door, and pulled the girl inside

This... this matter is quite difficult to handle. Wait! Isn't it better that no one lost their life? The young girl questioned, "Why do you feel regret for not killing him instead?"

What are you going to do next

Well, that makes sense. I should ask my friends for help to escape. As for you, sell yourself outside the city to cover the travel expenses

"Of course... uh! You are quite strong!" Ruikawa stumbled from the blow, "The little girl didn't see that!"

Not long after, a soldier ran back in a panic

If the ones chasing you are truly mad dogs... they will inevitably be implicated in some way, the girl weakly assessed

Hearing the sound of heavy footsteps, the young girl turned around and saw Ruikawa, stunned in surprise

I will bite again

Quickly chase after him!" he shouted angrily, "Bring my horse! Also, send some people to inquire around and find out what kind of thief he is!"

A dead end, implicating friends and family..." Ruikawa held his forehead, "I feel that if I were to confront that guy now, at least I could still protect my friends.

Stop! Quickly stop!

Suck it dry? Oh, I understand now. I've heard of it, just didn't know the girl's name

I am truly foolish. It seems that I have implicated my friends.

A cacophony of noise erupted outside the door, and immediately a soldier in a cloth robe burst in, thrusting his spear. Ruikawa evaded the attack, the long spear missing its mark, positioned between the two. Just as Ruikawa was about to lunge forward to slay the spearman, he noticed another soldier armed with a sword stepping out behind him.

Illegal enslavement of girls

I just don't believe it, so what?

You certainly do not wish to remain silent

Rekawa stepped out of the house once again. This time, he saw that at the end of the stone steps, torches were densely clustered together. It seemed that the other party was already aware of his presence.

The knight's squire furrowed his brow as he took it, examining it with confusion, when suddenly his expression changed dramatically

No wonder, a person with no attachments can do anything

They died young. I have not seen them since I can remember

Rekawa casually pushed her head back and said: "Do you think you are my bloodline, still biting me?"

You, you, you, you are crazy! You casually captured me before, and now you casually let me go!

Interesting. Reikawa observed the petite girl kneeling on the ground. Her features were as delicate as a doll, her skin as tender and white as half-melted snow, and in the starlight streaming through the window, her long hair displayed a dreamy shade of purple

"Your hands are really heavy!" the girl scolded, "Aren't you going to rub it for me? My forehead is about to bruise."

Suddenly stopping in her tracks, Ruikawa turned around and gave the girl a bear hug

"Oh, I have committed a crime," said Ruikawa nonchalantly

Has the person been caught? the knight's squire inquired

What? There are still helpers? It was only then that Ruikawa recalled that when the knight's squire arrived, the footsteps of the soldiers were indeed more than one person. However, the situation had been too tense earlier, causing Ruikawa to overlook this detail

... ...

What did you go out to do? the girl asked

"You are being hunted down; what use is it to take me hostage?" the girl asked calmly, allowing Ruikawa to pull out the rope and bind her hands.

Ah..." Ruikawa sighed, "You are truly bold; being kidnapped yet still daring to joke and laugh with me. If it were an ordinary girl, she would have been scared out of her wits.

"You should just go quickly," Ruikawa said helplessly

"Oh no! What are you doing? You hurt me!" cried the girl being dragged along.

You, you, you, you are a pervert!" the girl screamed

"In order to hunt me down, he will inquire about me and then seek out my friends to interrogate them, even going so far as to take them hostage." Ruikawa said with a helpless shrug, "Who knows what that mad dog might do if he finds my friends"

I am also quite taken aback... By the way, you still haven't told me your name... Huh?

"Then why are you back!" The knight's squire was almost so enraged that he was about to slap him across the face

What did you just say about involving friends on hetushu.com?

I am but a worthless life, with nothing worth prolonging. As for your lives, they should be quite precious..." Ruikawadon paused and said, "But I have not experienced it, nor do I have any understanding.

Before Reikawa could take any action, the girl jumped down the steps and ran away briskly

I appeared at the wrong place at the wrong time, and when trouble struck, I chose to wait quietly rather than flee at the first opportunity. From the moment he saw me sitting with William, I was unable to extricate myself, and even if I were to survive by the skin of my teeth, I would still lose half my life. Since death is inevitable, it is certainly best to have someone to take the fall with me.

Rekawa heard the knight's squire roaring hoarsely: "You wait! You wait! I will tear you to pieces!"

You may not believe it, but my family can definitely handle this matter

Disgusting

It was I who introduced Master Lanruos to Morun. I went to apologize to Morun's fiancé. In the tavern, her fiancé was murdered by Lanruos's servant. In my fury, I attacked him, but unfortunately, I was unable to kill him

"Having lived for over ten years, I have yet to embrace a girl." Releasing his hand, Ruikawa gently pushed the girl out the door, "At the very least, I must try before I die in a state of confusion."

What is your name? And what about your friend?

Rekawa once again pushed the girl's head away

What exactly is going on

"Quick!" Reika pulled the girl to turn towards a stone staircase leading up to the heights of the city. He gasped for breath and looked back; in the dark alleys below, torches flickered and danced. "There are quite a few pursuers..." he murmured.

Um... I understand the reasoning, but who is William?

"Shut up! You are captured!" Reikawa casually yanked the dagger from the girl's waist and threw it away.

You just don't understand. Even if the ransom has no deterrent effect, hostages can still serve as human shields

Where are we going

Rekawa grasped her wrist without hesitation, pulling her along as they continued to run wildly

Do you have hostages...

He let out a bitter smile and returned to the room, walking straight to the girl and squatting down in front of her. "Brave little girl, beautiful little girl, interesting little girl. It would indeed be a great loss for you to die here with me. How about this... I will trust you once. My friend's name is Haiji, Haiji from Cart Street." Ruikawa used a knife to cut the rope he had previously tied around the girl's hands, helped her up, and pulled her towards the door.

What have you done! The girl panicked, "How come someone is chasing you!"

Did you attack the knight's retainer

Behind, the pursuers are shouting

What exactly did you do wrong

According to reason, there should be no one walking in the quiet alley at night, but unexpectedly, Ruikawa did not run for long before seeing a young girl. The girl was dressed in a white blouse and a black skirt, with long hair reaching her waist, standing with her hands behind her back, boredly kicking the ground with her right foot

Quickly, Ruikawa slipped out the back door and turned to dart into the dark alley

As the night deepens, the escape continues

"Don't believe me? If you don't believe me, I'll bite you!" After saying this, the girl, puffed up with anger, bared her teeth and bit towards Ruikawa's neck

The young soldier, with trembling hands, presented a dagger to the knight's squire, saying: "I... I found this."

Outside the back door of the tavern, the knight's squire pressed on his injured left shoulder, pacing back and forth with gritted teeth

What is your name

"Come here! Save me!" the knight's squire shouted anxiously, barely managing to fend off the three consecutive strikes from Greikawa.

His physical condition prevented him from pursuing Ruikawa, while the desire for revenge burned within his heart

"Do you want to take revenge?" Reikawa looked at her expressionlessly

Prostitute, I plan to sell you

"How dare you!" the girl said angrily as she punched him on the back.

You truly are a quintessential fugitive, do you not consider your family? If you were to die, your parents would be heartbroken

"Damn it!" Rika cursed under her breath, turned around, and ran away, knocking over a table along the way, causing the pursuing swordsman to fall to the ground.

Leftover food and wine, cups, bowls, knives, and forks scattered all over the ground, along with a severed head. The knight's squire, caught off guard, could only raise a hand to defend himself, yet was still knocked back two steps by the overturned dining table.

Um... secret...

Rekawa ignored her. He walked to the edge of the stone steps, gazing at the flickering lights of the moving figures in the dark city, without saying a word. After standing for a while, he returned to the room and sat back in his original position

However, the blade struck heavily against his left arm. His armor was quite well-made, and Reikawa's powerful blow only managed to cut in an inch. Blood flowed along the edge of the blade, and the knight's squire let out a scream, half-kneeling on the ground. Reikawa viciously pulled out the sword, raising it high above his head, and was about to bring it down upon his head.

Rekawa sighed, struck the knot dead, and sat down dejectedly beside the young girl

"That's right, I am ill, rejoice, young girl, you are free."

The nameless one. You may completely refer to me as the villain who kidnaps beautiful girls

At this moment, the excruciating pain in the left shoulder and the fear of death finally overshadowed the numbness in the arm. The knight's squire gritted his teeth and swung his sword, launching an attack like the wind, sweeping forward. Ruikawa leaped back to evade, grinning as he pressed forward again. Ruikawa could sense that the enemy was very strong, but he was already severely injured, his combat power greatly diminished. It would not be long before Ruikawa could take his head.

"It doesn't matter anymore, since I am dead anyway." Ruikawa turned around and looked at her meaningfully, "Fortunately, I am not on this journey alone"

Moren's fiancé

It hurts! The young girl sobbed

What happened

"What exactly is your background? You sound quite distinguished..." Reikawa pondered, "Your stamina is impressive; you haven't even breathed heavily after running for so long"

In fact, based on your description, I believe that even if you were aware of the consequences, given your temperament, you would still draw your sword

"What does it have to do with you?" Ruikawa said irritably as she pulled her along and started running again, "Let's go, let's go! Don't be lazy!"

Little girl, aren't you afraid of encountering bad people while you are daydreaming here in the middle of the night? Ruikawa is slandering.

... ...

What a beautiful girl, Ruikawa couldn't help but frown

Assess the situation. Meanwhile, consider whether or not to proceed downwards

This must be the hostage sent to me by Lilith, who cannot bear to see me perish! Reikawa was overjoyed

I want to kill.

"Just now, were you joking? Did you kill someone?" the girl asked while resting in the narrow alley.

Oh... the girl suddenly laughed, "The villain Reikawa who kidnaps beautiful girls."

What crime?
