Chapter 5 - The Eye That Discern The Truth and Lie

Inside the carriage somewhere in the forest. Outskirt of the Helena Kingdom.

"So, name, age, where you came from, and your intention"

The Captain with eyes like a lion, ordered Kudaze. The Captain which is named Greynard, is the captain of this small mercenary group.

He sits in front of Kudaze who is trown inside the carriage after he was supposedly captured and now interrogated.

"Hey I'm asking you a question"

Greynard says with heavy voice. It's enough to make Kudaze trembles.

"Hm.. because it works from that guy I think I should just use it to this guy too"

Kudaze thought as he look at his floating system window. He look at it then let out a small sigh to not make it look like his disrespecting the old man in front of him.

"Uhm.. I am Kudaze Vilvet.."

Kudaze says and he looks at the old man. Greynard look at him, his face did not react to what Kudaze just said.

"I.."

Before Kudaze knows it he completely forgots that he doesn't know his age. Sure by the looks of him when he see it in the system windows he seems like in his twenties.

"What the hell.. well I'll just come up with a number then"

Kudaze thought as he look at Greynard and said.

"I'm 21 years old"

Suddenly the pressure around the room changes. Kudaze felt it right away, as he see Greynard eyes turn bright yellow.

"You dare to lie to me young man?"

Greynard look at Kudaze as he exert pressure around the carriage.

"What is this??? Why is my breathing gotten shorter and shorter... The air is getting sucked"

Kudaze thought as he clench his chest gasping for air. He doesn't know why is this happening.

But he hear something outside.

"Dang did that guy just lie in front of the captain.. I feel the pressure even here"

Suddenly Kudaze realize what is happening. This guy, Greynard have something that discern lie from the truth. Acting quickly desperate to live he speak with all his energy left in him.

"I, I lied.. I don't know my age!"

After that the pressure has vanished, like it was never there. Kudaze fall flat in the floor gasping for air.

"What the hell is this.. I just survive a wolf and now this guy is threatening my 1 HP left! What am I gonna do"

Suddenly Greynard speaks breaking the silence.

"Hm.. well maybe I understand when you tell me where you came from"

Kudaze still trying to catch his breath sit up and told Greynard the truth.

"I came from the other side of the river.. in the dense forest"

But he doesn't give every detail, he doesn't want to let everybody knows that he just got here and he came from another world.

"Well I technically said the truth so whatever it is will not react to this"

Kudaze thought as he sigh the sign of relief he just get right now.

"Hm.. from the forest huh..."

Greynard look at him up and down.

"Well I can tell.. but to just make it sure"

Greynard lean forward and ask the last question he had.

"And your intention?"

"I.. I was looking for help.. as you can see"

Kudaze answered as he look at himself.

"Hm.."

Greynard stand up and gets out of the carriage. Then moments later Alaza, the guy who's chasing him enters the carriage, with him is a bag of cloth.

"Hah.. I don't want to do this but the captain said I need too.. if I can I won't"

Alaza said as he thrown the bag on Kudaze.

"Dress up lad because I'm getting tired of seeing your balls"

Alaza said as Kudaze look at his.. you know.

"Hah.. this is really embarrassing"

Kudaze thought as he open the bag and see the set of cloths inside of it.

[T-shirt]

It's make of silk! Not the best quality but it works.

[Equip][Drop]

[Pants]

Make by cheap leather. Nothing more nothing less.

[Equip][Drop]

"Hah.."

Kudaze is relieved beyond words by how much he likes this cloths.

"It's so comfy!"

Kudaze thought as he look at Alaza.

"Now you can sleep.. I don't know why the captain ordered this but.. go to sleep.. I'll stay here and guard you"

Alaza then sit in the place where the Captain was sitting before and he look at Kudaze.

"Ah.. okay"

Kudaze didn't refuse nor does it give him any signal of warning. He just knows something.

"If I sleep right now I can recover my HP!!!"

He then fall asleep not knowing what the future has for him.
