Chapter 48 - A reflection coming from within

Morning and afternoon quickly vanished, replaced by a rainy night something very unusual to happen. After finishing his hard labor, Kylo had an idea.

"If I want to get strong quickly, I can't waste time. The better a child's body adapts to situations, the greater its potential for growth will be in the near future."

Walking through the streets of Círdavon, Kylo sensed the smell of blood even though none was present nearby. It was then that something within him awakened, influencing him to speak those words and reveal that gesture to the world.

"Show yourself!" (Kylo said as he extended his hand toward the rainy emptiness of Círdavon's streets.)

A reflection made of water emerged, and within it, the murder of a villager from Círdavon was revealed. No one spoke, no one reacted to that atrocity being replayed over and over like an infinite loop. It was as if only Kylo could see what that reflection was showing.

Meanwhile, the other citizens eating in taverns, dancing and doing their businesses, ignoring a poor child staring into nothing.

"Look at that freak, not only a slave but his head is a bread full of weed Ahaahahahaha!"

That was what the drunked men kept doing as they looked at Kylo, laughing and mocking the boy. Sadly for them, Kylo was already adapted to that type of concerns.

Anyway, something was wrong.
