Robin looked into the eyes of the young man in front of him after hearing his last sentence...
he looked at him for a long time...
With an emotionless face, he didn't utter a single word, but his pupils were shaking so hard, it was as if his eyes were about to fall out.
Richard furrowed his eyebrows a little when he saw this, he didn't know what to do, the person in front of him was clearly in deep shock, but why?
Richard looked at the giant with the side of his eye, perhaps understanding more about the situation from his features, but he also found him looking at the human sitting in front of him with a face that looked in deep pain...
The giant even tried to extend his hand so many times to put it on the shoulder of the seated human, but he would pull it back again every time, apparently not daring to cut his rope of thoughts
,m "Did she REALLY die? Mila... she is dead?!" Finally, Robin muttered but his eyes regained focus for a moment as if he understood something and spoke, "No no... Maybe you mean she has been messing for a while or something right?! That is definitely what you mean, she's so strong, she is the strongest woman I have ever known! come on tell me, When did she disappear? Did this happen here or on our home planet? I will search for her."
Richard ignored that the person in front of him called his mother by her mere name again, his eyes reddened and he started laughing hysterically, "Haha.. hahahaha.. yeah yeah, she disappeared, right in front of my eyes..."
"Oh, How? Was it the Major Heavenly Law of Space? Why did she use it? tell me the specifics." Robin held out hope when he heard this and asked again, already forgetting that Mila doesn't know anything about that Law
"No no no, where did your imagination take you? it was much simpler than that, she vanished by the stomach acid law hahaha" Richard continued laughing out loud again.
"Hah?" Robin swallowed his saliva, then asked, "What do you mean, exactly? I didn't understand you."
"What is there to understand!? The giants of Nihari cooked her and ate her right before my eyes! well, that can be considered watching her disappear, right?" Richard kept talking in a sarcastic manner, but after he finished he placed both hands on his head while his eyes were wide open, as if he could see everything that had happened in front of him again.
*BbZZzzzZzZZzZZZZZZTTTTTT*
As if all the lightning bolts in the world struck him in the same second, Robin kept looking at him with an open mouth and lifeless eyes, even his pupils stopped moving.
"...After the Seven Kingdoms attacked Jura City with the support of the Flame Empire, we managed to hold out for about half a year, but a betrayal took place and the city was conquered… My older brothers, uncle Billy, and even grandpa Galan insisted that my mother take me and escape through the space portal so that we might meet with my father Once again.. they thought he might protect us and give us solutions to what is happening to the family." Richard spoke in a choked voice, still resting his head in both hands.
"But when we arrived, we did not find my dear father, we did not find any human beings... The portal sent us to the middle of a city where everything is huge and around us from every direction there were 3 meters tall giants talking in a strange language and trying to harass my mother, we did not know what was happening around us so we tried to escape.
But we couldn't run away, the gravity was too strong and I was too weak, and my mom had to protect me from gravity with her energy as we tried to escape, so we were quickly caught.
But my mother did not give up, everyone who was trying to approach us was turned into ashes, my mother held her ground and protected both of us! But in the end, a few giants came with the power of a Sage and managed to subdue her...
Before they caught her she screamed and signaled to the giants to wait for a little, she cut herself and me and told me to heal myself, We used the Life Fire to heal the wounds right before their eyes, and that is something they understood!
Then we were taken to the place of the chief of the tribe and his subordinates, a large hall full of giants, it was like some kind of a party was taking place there... we were presented to them to make a decision for us, We spared no effort in trying to prove what we could do so that they might survive...
After our mother and I proved to them again that we really treat severe injuries and We can even prolong life. They agreed to keep us as pets, but.. the chief of the tribe moved next to my mother and started playing in her hair and running his hand on her butt, his intentions were clear.
My mother refused strongly and started yelling and indicating with her hand that she was married... whether he understood her or not, the Chief of the Tribe wasn't fond of her reaction very much, It seemed like she embarrassed him somehow...
So he moved away from my mother's side and gestured to some of his companions, they quickly moved captured my mother, and pushed her to the ground in front of me... they were about to rape her in the middle of the hall in front of dozens of other giants like some kind of a sideshow for the party
Then my mother looked at me, sobbing, and said, "Stay alive." Then she used her inner energy to cut her lifeline.
She committed suicide as an act of loyalty to her fool husband, The one who put her in this situation in the first place...
But do they leave it at that? of course not! For some reason, my mother's death angered them even more. Haha, so they started F*CKING her corpse anyway, and after they finished they grilled her over a modest fire in the middle of the hall, cut her up, and distributed her body parts on the plates of all the attendees.
Hehe, everyone took a piece of my mother while I was sitting watching!! I remember one of them taking a bite of the liver and then spitting it out with disgust and going to the fire to grill some more, he even stole an extra piece of the kidney as he was waiting! haha... HAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAY!!! Hehe.. heh" *sniff.. sniff..*
Richard's outburst of hysterical laughter ended with weeping, every word he said was reminiscing, everything was as if it happened in front of him again, so he put both his hands on his head and went down with his body until his chin touched his knees and he started crying like a ten-year-old child
Tears filled Jabba's eyes after hearing what happened to this boy and his mother, even though he hadn't known them before.
As for Robin, his heartbeat became very faint, so faint that Jabba had to cover him with his spiritual sense every now and then to make sure he was still alive, but the thing is... Robin's features remained unchanged from beginning to end, not a single drop of tears fell from one of his eyes.
After another two minutes Richard still sobbed heartily, Robin stood quietly, turned, and moved toward the door, but stopped just before the door opened and said three words, "Wait for me."
----------------------------------
On top of a hill outside the capital of the Azil Tribe--
After getting out of that place, Robin left the Draco and started walking south on his feet, he didn't say a word and Jabba didn't ask him anything, just kept a small distance between them and started walking behind him...
A few hours passed in silence with both of them sitting at the edge of the hilltop.
Robin looked as if he could sit in his place like this forever, but Jabba couldn't take it any longer and decided to ask, even if he didn't get an answer, "This young man and his mother, did you know them from before.. ?"
"..They are my son and my wife."
"WHA-?!" Jabba took a few steps back
For the first time in his life, he felt frightened.
After a while, he gathered all the courage he can master and asked again, "You... you are okay, right?!"
"I'm fine, go get us the Draco, it's time to go back to the Sect," Robin spoke in a voice that made Jabba's hair stand, but he didn't dare to stay here an extra moment so he quickly jumped up and went to fetch the Draco, leaving Robin alone.
After a few more minutes...
Robin extended his palm and a small metal tablet appeared on it
Then a white flame appeared on top of that tablet and it silently started melting on his palm until it turned into a mere liquid.
*TCHHHHHHHhhhh....*
"What are you doing? Don't you want your hand anymore?!" Jabba was terrified when he saw the sight as soon as he arrived
Robin's right hand was about to disappear, his flesh and bone melted and the metallic fluid began to fall through a large hole in the middle of his palm.
Robin looked behind him with a smile and said, "Don't worry, it is alright.. let's go."
Then he jumped behind Jabba over the Draco, and sat down as if nothing had happened
*raaaf raaaf*
Jabba compelled the Draco south, terrified of what was happening he didn't utter a single word, he thought Robin was melting that tablet to punish himself somehow...
He didn't know that this tablet was the first Oath Tablet Robin made when he came into this world.
The Oath Tablet that Robin, Jabba, and Orzon had sworn upon to cooperate and keep their secrets.
The Oath Tablet That Robin's swore upon... That he intends no evil towards the Giant race.
