Chapter 179 - Incident
Chapter 179 – Incident
So Dante and his group went to retrieve their horses and soon Dante could be seen walking towards their horses and so after retrieving the horses they set off…
…
Minutes later,
Dante and his group could be seen riding through the city with a large convoy of guards on horseback surrounding them.
With such a strange sight it was inevitable that they would grab attention.
Even more so in a place like Vainwatch city where the people were rarely going out. Such a sight was a rare occurrence and so it would just make people more curious to come out to watch.
To make matters worse it seems like one of the guards from earlier had released information that the Dragon son was in town, causing even more people to come out and try and get a glimpse at this legendary figure.
Dante could already feel countless eyes staring at him, watching his every movement.
He knew that he was certainly the centre of attention right now.
Fortunately for Dante had already been in this position for a while now so he already had some experience when it came to being stared at by crowds.
He don\'t panic and just softly smiled as he turned and gave a slight nod to the crowd.
As Dante was watching the crowd, he suddenly heard a loud commotion as the horses broke out into disarray and panic.
As Dante was looking around, he managed to see the source of all this commotion
It was just a small rugged figure who had actually dashed into the convoy of horses and was heading straight for Dante\'s horse!
But unlike the other horses, Dante\'s horse didn\'t even flinch.
Such a commotion had. O possibility of scaring a beast with such a ferocious bloodline!
The horse\'s red eyes seemed to glow as it prepared to charge down this strange figure.
but before It could act out, Dante quickly calmed it down.
This was because Dante quickly realised what was coming for him was no threat.
It was simply a child and one who wasn\'t even a cultivator!
Dante couldn\'t let his horse trample over a kid.
He wasn\'t a nice person but he definitely wasn\'t that cruel!
But not everyone else shared Dante\'s casual opinion.
For the guards, the fact that such a situation occurred was simply outrageous!
How could They allow for any random person to approach someone as prestigious as the Dragon son?!
If the Dragon Son was displeased it would be their heads that went rolling!
so a guard quickly raised his whip as he lashed out at the boy
"How dare a bastard child try and obstruct the way of the Dragon Son!"
the air whistled as the powerful whip sped through the air at the defenceless boy.
"Crack!"
The loud blow of the whip sounded causing everyone in the vicinity to close their eyes in a grimace, but as they slowly opened the back up again, the sight of the boy being sent flying that all had been expecting never happened.
Instead, a tall white-haired figure could be seen tightly grasping the whip in his hand as he stood over the boy.
"S-Sir Dragon Son" stuttered the guard in disbelief
As he saw who his attack hit, The guard instantly turned pale with fright.
What had he just done! He actually attacked the Dragon Son.
The guard almost collapsed to his knees but luckily, before he could do that, Dante turned around as he smiled at the guard
"There\'s no need for such a fierce reaction," said Dante
"he\'s still just a child at the end of the day.s so It\'s understandable that he would make mistakes. let\'s just give the child a break,"
After saying this, Dante helped the boy off of the floor and dusted him off before speaking.
"I hope you don\'t end up doing such things again. Not everyone is as kind as me so such stupid actions might really cost you your life next time."
After saying this Dante? Patted the kid on his head as he turned around and slowly walked back to his horse.
But before Dante had even taken a few steps he felt someone dive at his legs even causing him to stumble forward a few steps.
As soon as this happened, the very air seemed to freeze.
Forget about the guards, even the crowd of onlookers couldn\'t believe what they were seeing.
That boy! He was simply just crazy!
Even after being personally warned by the Dragon son, the crazy kid had dived and latched onto him again!
\'He\'s so dead!\'
That was the common consensus among the watching crowd
They had seen the mysterious cultivators from the capital before.
All of them are distinguished individuals that felt an extreme displeasure and loathing in being bothered by regular individuals like them.
Although this time the Dragon Son was more kind than those stuck up individuals, it didn\'t mean that anyone could keep on bothering him.
He was Dragon Son for crying out loud! One of the highest-ranking members of society. Of course, he wouldn\'t take kindly to people randomly grabbing him!
although it wasn\'t as extreme as what the crowd was thinking, Dante was starting to get annoyed.
Did this kid really think he was here to play games? He didn\'t have time to play around with some random kids
So Dante turns around to give the boy yet another warning, yet as he was turning around Dante was met with the desperate eyes of the boy.
"Please Lord Dragon Son! I need you to help me!" Cried the little boy in desperation.
" They came and destroyed my village! I even watched them take my best friend!
Please Lord Dragon Son, please help me save my village from the walking corpses!
Save them from the zombies!"
As soon as the boy spoke, a loud stir broke out amongst the crowd
Walking corpses!
There had been rumours of caravans being attacked and people being kidnapped. But who the walking corpses had gotten so fearless that they would destroy an entire village!
