Raon's hands trembled, despite his calm mind.
"You don't need to be so nervous. We just want to talk."
The long-haired collateral at the front approached him. Raon knew his name already. Krein Zieghart. He was the guy who picked a fight with him that morning, and he had also shown a rather brilliant talent during the Judgment Ceremony.
"Hey."
The three children who were next to Krein stuck themselves to Raon's sides and his back, when Krein pointed with his chin.
"Talk? What kind of talk do you want?"
He wanted to step back, but it was impossible to retreat with three people blocking his way.
"You'll know once we get there."
"Follow quietly."
Krein gestured with a grin, and the two guys next to him started to push him with their shoulders.
Since Raon was small for his age, while the collaterals were rather big, it looked like adults taking away a kid.
"Wa-wait a second. How about we talk here?"
"It's too late."
"You shouldn't have been so arrogant."
