10 years passed, yet the image of that little boy Rygus is still floating around in my head.
Who knows what he will be when he grows up?
Nobody knows, as the Kersia family disappeared a while after Rygus came to me.
Perhaps they stay hidden to prevent revenge from others? Or maybe they decide to stop the family business? Either way, they are gone without a trace.
The door creaked open, and a young man was standing behind it. He looked at me merrily and walked up to my seat.
"Mr. Bluer, I'm back!"
His blonde hair slacked down from the top of his head. The mask he wore covered his face, but I can tell from the voice that this is the same kid 10 years ago.
"Rygus? Is that really you? You've changed so much!"
"You didn't change at all, Mr."
I never thought that I'd see him again.
"What brings you back here? And where did you go?"
"My family decided to move back after my training was complete. However, what and where my training took place has to be kept a secret."
"I understand completely."
"There's actually another reason that I'm back," he looked embarrassed, "I came to meet the so-called most beautiful girl in the city and wishes to impress her."
"Oh!" Surprised by this response, I stayed silent for a minute. "You better be careful, then."
"Careful? Is she hard to please?"
"It's not just that. She's a little bit... bloodthirsty."
Hopefully, Rygus can survive after his encounter with her.
"I came in hope that perhaps you can disguise me for this."
"I think she will be more please if you reveal your identity. Ms. Bloodsmith is more into... strong men."
