Volume 2 Chapter 82: The Slums

"What do you mean you guys were taken out?!" Viscount Filems shouted when he saw his knights return home. They were injured!

And it didn't look light. It looked more one-sided.

He couldn't believe his men were taken out like that!

"Master, you can't deal with this kid." One of the knights stated.

From how those knights beat them so easily, the kid wasn't someone to be messed with. He had a backing!

"Shut it!" Viscount Filems yelled. There was no way he would let this brat get away! Not after everything that happened.

"Get out of my sight right now!" The knights walked out of the office.

Viscount Filems turned to his butler, "We need to send people to deal with the brat!" Since he couldn't destroy the bakery, it was time to target the kid himself!

"Go find people from the slums!"

"Are you sure this is wise?" The people from the slums were all poor people. They couldn't compare to the knights.

"There's so many people there. They would do anything for coins," Viscount Filems laughed as he stated.

"Understood," The butler nodded.

...

Keith returned to the bakery. But this time, there were two guards there. William decided that there should be added protection.

And the two guards weren't imposing like Logan and Michael. But they were enough. They had calmed any customer who tried to mess with the bakery.

Keith didn't need to worry about Ralph and the others. He looked at Fira and Aria,

"Let's go to Orin and get that tool," Keith had a bunch of bread in his hand. This was payment for the tool Orin was making.

Keith had asked Orin to create something that would make organized coins better.

"You know him?" Keith questioned.

Orin nodded, "Yes, I know him. We used to be rivals,"

Huh? Keith blinked a few times. Michael was the same as he added, "Well, your rival tried to attack the kid,"

Orin stared at Hugo, "What are you doing?! Why are you attacking the kid?! Have you fallen so low?!" He couldn't believe it!

He was his rival?! How could he fall so low?

"I had to! My daughter is sick!" Hugo roared.

"Huh?" Orin blinked, "What happened?!"

Hugo explained, "Do you understand how the slums are?! We need to do everything we can to live! That means taking all the jobs possible! My daughter is sick! I have to do it!"

"..." Orin and Michael said nothing.

"The slums?" Keith tilted his head. This was the first time he heard about it.

Orin stated, "Kid, it's something you're too young to know,"

"Hmm?" Keith turned to Michael, who was silent. He turned to Hugo, "Tell me what the slum is,"

Hugo stated, "It's a place where there are people who are poor and have nothing to stay at,"

"We don't have work, so that's the only place we can go,"

"It's better than nothing,"

"Does Father know about this?" Keith questioned Michael.

"Kid, your father has been trying his best to fix it all this time," Michael stated.

"He's right. Sir William tried his best to fix the slums. But there was too much for him,"

"...I see," Keith thought about it before deciding, "Alright! Let's go to the slums,"
