Chapter 185: Chapter 130: Want to Kill Me? You’re Not Worthy! (2)_2
In the end, Qin Chu prepared a wheelchair for Karlin and hired someone to take care of her.
Even when he was being executed, only Karlin was still defending him; ultimately, she was killed by Nicholas of the patrol team.
As the images from the past surfaced in his mind, Qin Chu suddenly reached out and picked Karlin up from the cold stone plate, a move that left her panic-stricken. Her body, involuntarily struggling weakly, was filthy with dirt; she couldn’t afford to soil Mr. Brave’s clothes.
This scene made all the knights around frown, exchanging looks that carried contempt in their eyes.
To them, commoners were hardly human.
Contact with commoners was considered a disgrace to the upper class, let alone picking one up like Qin Chu did.
Feeling the gazes around him, Qin Chu was unfazed. His eyes swept over Karlin’s body, her right leg unnaturally twisted, with large areas like her knees, ankles, and arms marked by abrasions.
"How did this happen?"
Karlin’s gaze shifted away as she muttered softly, "I fell... when I climbed over the isolation wall..."
The ten-meter-high isolation wall... What level of hunger had driven Karlin to climb over the isolation wall and rummage through trash in the Noble District for food?
The moment her knee broke, it must have been very painful, right?
Qin Chu could easily imagine Karlin dragging her bruised body across the cold stone plate, struggling towards the trash cans—most of her abrasions must have come from that.
Without saying much more, Qin Chu placed a hand on Karlin’s wounds.
"Holy Light Technique!"
A soft white light spread from Qin Chu’s palm, enveloping Karlin’s frail body, her wounds healing at a visibly fast rate.
The Holy Light Technique wasn’t just for illumination; it was the Holy Court’s most basic form of Healing Magic, and quite effective at that.
It didn’t take long for Karlin to be surprised to find that her wounds had almost completely healed, and the piercing pain that had almost numbed her body had vanished completely.
Her little head swayed from side to side, looking quite adorable.
"Mr. Brave, forgive my frankness, but touching such people compromises your dignity," Zahar frowned deeply, thinking he was being kind as he advised, "and there’s no need to waste your precious Magic Power on this sort of person."
He didn’t care about Qin Chu’s dignity, but since they were both part of the upper class, Qin Chu’s actions embarrassed him as well.
Zahar was no fool; he realized that Qin Chu seemed intent on saving this girl, which annoyed him significantly, especially since she had kicked him and was supposed to be executed by him.
If he couldn’t execute Karlin, then he, Zahar, would become the laughingstock among his colleagues and the upper class.
Qin Chu’s expression turned icy as he glanced at Zahar, "Shut up."
The cold voice made Zahar’s breath catch, resentment welling up inside him; he thought to himself, I’m kindly advising you and you don’t take it to heart; just wait and see when you become the butt of jokes... Damn Otherworldly people, so lacking in manners, not a bit of a noble’s demeanor.
When he turned back to Karlin, Qin Chu’s voice softened again, "Karlin, where are your parents?"
"They died in the battle against demons," Karlin spoke quietly, her tone flat as if not particularly saddened.
The torment of hunger had left her no time to grieve; struggling just to survive every day had exhausted all her energy.
Qin Chu’s gaze shifted towards Zahar, "Zahar, her parents, like you, were soldiers..."
Zahar scoffed mockingly, even interrupting Mr. Brave, "Mr. Brave, I’m sorry, but please watch your words. Although we are both soldiers, I am a knight; we are different."
Yes, they were knights, they were nobles.
Karlin’s parents were just ordinary people.
In the war against demons, Karlin’s parents were merely cannon fodder at the front lines, inherently different from knights like Zahar, who didn’t even need to fight on the front lines but merely patrolled the Imperial City Nobles District.
Although Qin Chu had long known the rules of this world, at this moment, a wave of anger still welled up in his heart, a discomfort pressing heavily on his chest.
The angrier he got, the calmer Qin Chu appeared; his demeanor was gentle, revealing not the slightest hint of murderous intent.
Zahar, unaware of Qin Chu’s mood, saw him even smiling and thought Mr. Brave had taken his words to heart. It seemed this Otherworldly person wasn’t completely hopeless; he decided he would properly teach Mr. Brave a lesson in etiquette to let him understand the rules of high society.
"Mr. Brave, please forgive my frankness, but the title of Brave in the Sky Dome Continent is extremely prestigious, and that requires the manners of a Brave... First and foremost, you must not casually interact with those beneath you..."
Zahar’s droning voice was irritating Qin Chu.
High society?
Is Augustus considered high society?
Is Saint Monica considered high society?
Is Wozworth considered high society?
But even with an identity like Wozworth’s, he could still chat and banter in the streets with Qin Chu, slinging arms over shoulders like brothers. Was Wozworth’s rank not prestigious enough? Did Wozworth not know the dignity of the nobles?
