ZH was finally the center attention which he looked to Mila. "I was going to hang around with your group. You wouldn't mind would you?" ZH smiled while Sara and Emmett gave him a glare being wary of him since they knew nothing about him.

Mila couldn't help but laugh seeing how she was still being protected like she was going to get married with ZH. "Sure. You better take part in this then." She hoped that he would do his part of the job.

"By the way, what happens when they wake up in the morning to see that their 'workers' are all gone?" ZH then asked looking to them all.

Mila smiled wanting to see it, but it was already good enough with what they did. "Let's just be on our way to avoid being found." Mila said with them all heading to their next destination.
***
The next morning...

"Their all gone!!!!!!!!" Voices of the people from Wildeford were in panic and shock to see that every single 'slave' of theirs were gone. Not a single trace of them were found with their governor bruised, beaten, and tied up. He didn't even feel anything until he woke up that morning.

"Find the slave!!!!!"

"They mustn't have gone far!!!!!"

Every single one of them were sending their best men to find the slaves but they were already late enough since they had all woken up later than usual.

The only thing that was left for them was 'The Messengers of Beasts' written with a sword at the center of town.

Sleeping soundly, Mila was surrounded by Vivian, Sara, and Thelma who were snuggled close to her. 'I feel suffocated.' Mila was sweating all over, seeing how the three of them were so closely snuggled to her. The two gentleman slept in another tent that was further away knowing how hot it was last night with summer coming soon. They still needed to keep their distance due to the unmarried women.
***
"What is my lady to you?" Emmett asked ZH who didn't think that he would ask. Emmett did not know if ZH had a motive with Mila since they were both the opposite gender of one another.

"What do you mean?" ZH looked over to Emmett who had a serious look. ZH knew that he wasn't a man who would mess with simple things. "She is someone close and important to me. She changed my view of almost everything if I hadn't gotten to know her." ZH said truthfully looking to where Mila was sound asleep in the center.

Emmett could see that he wasn't telling any lies which he would be keeping a close eye on him for some time. 'What did Mila do to change you or help you? What past did you have before meeting her?' He then thought soon after since ZH revealed a little about himself.

"Father?!" Leo once again barged into his father's office once they had another piece of information about the unknown figures. "There's another piece if information! Slaves were found all gone one morning and those townspeople woke up not remembering anything nor hearing anything. The governor was found harmed but alive. It's just like when Mila used the powder in us that time." Leo had read the papers of the day, seeing how there would never be anyone who would take such actions in the Mireraweth Kingdom.

Duke Reynard was amazed by how Leo kept up with everything. "Leo, was the governor punished?"

Leo paused unsure why his father would ask that question. "Father, why are you asking that?" There was a long silence which Leo knew his father would want his answers first. "No, he wasn't. He knew of the slave trade which wasn't supposed to be used and is illegal. The emperor didn't care and left him be."

"Hm, your little sister only has so much endurance until she snaps." Duke Reynard said scoffing after to know that Mila would take action if possible. 'She is just like me when I was younger.' He thought remembering how he would take action when he couldn't handle it anymore.
***
"Off to the next town!!!!" Mila said knowing that they all were heading to the next town in Mireraweth kingdom. She felt excited to see what else there was. If there were any corruption then she would personally handle it all.

Deciding to walk this time, Mila had Vivian called back to rest. Cotton hung onto Mila from the back while ZH walked beside her. Emmett walked beside Sara who was in the middle while Thelma was on the other side of Sara.

"Mila, why did you decide to call yourselves 'The Messengers of Beasts'?" ZH asked looking to see if he would get an answer from Mila.

'Hmph, so he wants to know.' Mila thought and just wanted to let him find out for himself. "It's a secret." Mila said to him, but he figured she would do that. He had secrets of his own that he would not tell her about.

"I'll find my answer someday." He responded back with Mila waiting for that day.

Hearing people talk with a few carriages on their path like they were merchants. Mila smiled seeing that they had made it to the next town. Running ahead, she couldn't help but feel excited with just seeing the entrance. 'Rustmount!' Mila had heard it for it's fine beauty in metal of all kind along with stones.

Everyone followed the little girl who was excited to see every part of the kingdom despite the harsh and cruel things she saw before. She was still bright and treated them all equally the same.

Rushing into the town, Mila saw how the entire town didn't look to be in any problem or issue. Everything looked more lively with how the townspeople were even enjoying themselves with the fine weaponry and food.

Seeing all around, Mila saw everyone show off their weapons. She could even see Emmett go around and enjoy himself trying to have his sword also fixed up. 'He seems to be enjoying himself.' Mila couldn't help but giggle to see Emmett feel happy with some hobby of his.

"Let's go!" ZH had taken Mila by the hand and dragged her off.

"Cotton, stay with them." Mila said which Cotton nodded and went to Thelma who then carried her, seeing how the little beast had gotten used to her. Thelma saw Mila and ZH together, Mila had gestured a shush sign to her which Thelma giggles seeing the two run off and enjoy themselves.

The town wasn't that hard to come around and it wasn't hard to find each other. Mila followed ZH as they both spent time together. ZH had taken her to get her sword fixed and touched up.

Both held hands the entire time, Mila had never been more happy to see how carefree they were. It was like there was no one in the world who separate them.

Spending the entire day together, Mila laid down onto the grass. ZH laid down beside her and smiled looking up to the sky that both were looking at. "It's been a long time since I last felt this relaxed." Mila sighed after with relief of relaxation.
