Everyone watched Zain talked to Maribel like he talked to Rowena. They didn't say anything but just kept watching.
""My name is Lucian Zain von Dawnbreaker. The Founder of the Dawnbreaker Family and The Patriarch of the Dawnbreaker."
Eventually Zain introduced himself to Maribel. Everyone were suprised to find out that he is the founder as well as the patriarch. They wanted to know more about Zain but there was no way of joining the conversation with a quiet person while the other talked.
Zain stood up, walked near the chains to remove them.
*First Art - First Light*
Zain touch the chain that chained Maribel to the wall and the chain was destroyed. What happened was, Zain had an aura inside his hands and an aura on the outer layer of his hands. When his touched the chain, the outer aura covered the chain and the inner aura registered that as an attack, so it destroyed the chain.
In simpler terms, an outer layer aura covered the chain with aura so it won't target Maribel and the inner aura destroyed what was covered.
Everyone was slightly surprised when they saw that which they expected something to happen but not this.
*First Art - First Light*
Zain destroyed the other chain and picked up Maribel in his arms. Zain looked at while Maribel is still in his arms and said, "Iso, do you know the house I just bought?"
Iso was surprised but Zain's words but said "Yes."
Zain looked at the king and said, "King, it was pleasure doing business with you."
"It was."
Everyone was surprised by the words of Zain. Iso got near Zain and Zain said "Pleasure to meet you all. See you next time."
*TELEPORT*
Everyone became shocked by the sudden teleportation. Olivia looked utterly shocked and said "He knew teleport. Then what was the point of all the walking?"
Aleric looked at her said, "I think he gotta visit the place before he can teleport to that location."
Olivia looked at him like he's dumb or something and said, "He knew about Maribel in the basement and I didn't even know we had a basement?"
Aleric and Malrac looked at each other and realised that she was right. Olivia suddenly remembers something.
"Oh, Lucas stopped you from telling what kinda basement is this?"
"That? Do you seriously want to know?"
Olivia looked Aleric dead in the eye. Aleric just said, "It used to be a dungeon."
Aleric said that as he kept moving forward. Olivia froze in place for a second and said, "Wait wait, you're telling me the castle was build on top of the dungeon."
"Technically, yes and no. Now I realise why Lucas didn't want me to tell you." Aleric said as he kept walking forward.
________
Zain, Iso and Maribel appear at Iso's building. Iso looked around and realise it's her building.
"We'll talk about the house tomorrow." Zain said to Iso as he was about to teleport but Iso immediately grabbed his arm. Zain looked at her.
"Wait. I thought you were going to heal her here." Iso said to Zain while she looked at him still holding his arms.
"Why would I do that?"
"Because.... I mean... " Iso tried to think of something to say but nothing came out. Zain saw her stumbling with her words and said, "Why would I show a classified technique of healing someone like Maribel?"
Zain said that to make Iso give up. He could've healed Maribel at the castle basement or here at Iso's building but he wants to be cautious that someone won't try to use him for that. Someone can still try something since few people knows his capabilities.
The ability to cure curses which is known by 5 people. The healer, Iso, Olivia, Malrac and Aleric.
The ability to communicate with those who can't speak.
The ability to detect wide area.
The ability to teleport which is known mostly by all.
Most of Zain's ability are known by less people except teleporting, that was a rookie mistake.
Iso eventually let Zain's arm go.
*TELEPORT"
Zain immediately teleported when Iso let go.
____
Zain appeared of his inn room, he put Maribel on the bed and stepped back. Maribel was still awake as she lay on the bed, she looked at Zain all the time. She never took her eyes off him.
"Maribel, I think I'm going to cure you now."
-Are you sure you're making the right choice by making me your maid.
"Doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, it's my choice without being influenced by something or someone. I won't regret it."
-Why are you doing this?
"Don't you want to be cure?"
-I don't care about myself, I just want to die.
"Didn't you want to be my maid?"
-You didn't give me a choice. Besides, you refused to kill me.
"Okay. I'll cure you and let you go. You can kill yourself or decide not to serve me. I'll give you Seven Days to think afterwards."
-You're going to cure and throw me away.
"No. I'm giving you a choice. Like what Avicii said."
-Who's Avicii? What did Avicii said?
"He said 'One day you'll leave this world behind so live a life you will remember.'"
-Nice words.
"Are you ready?"
-Yes

Zain pointed Raph at Maribel, he cut Maribel's arms off as well as her thighs too on top of the missing legs.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!"
Maribel screamed in a lot of pain since Zain didn't use anything to stop the pain. Even though Maribel gotten used to pain but she can't tolerate pain, let alone want to feel pain.

Maribel slept.
After Maribel slept, Zain didn't deactivate the magic spell that cancels sound from leaking. He just left it there and went down stairs.
It was already night when Zain came downstairs. He saw May working and sported a familiar figure sitting alone.
He bumped into May by intention and order a 10 bottle of Ale and a 10 plates of meat. May wanted to talk but her inn was so busy today that she didn't have time.
The inn was full because of one being.
Zain pulled a chair where they were sitting and the person saw who was sitting opposite of them.
"Hey Rhaelis." Zain said to her as he casually sat down. She looked at him and didn't find something strange except she didn't see the tattoo on his forearm. She's curious about it.
"Hey Lucian." She said with indifference in her tone. Everyone in the room looked at them, more specifically at Zain.
"Can't you just stop calling me Lucian? Oh, I'm sorry by the way I reacted earlier." Zain said as he felt embarassed.
"Don't worry about it Lucas and you stink." Rhaelis said bluntly to Zain. He looked at himself, realise he never cleaned himself after putting Maribel down or healing her since she was bloody and dirty.
"Ahh shit, I forgot to clean myself. Does it bother you Ray."
"Ray? Why did you call me that?" Rhaelis said with confusion.
"I thought I should shorten your name. If you don't like it, I can stop."
"Nah It's fine and Your stench doesn't bother me." Rhaelis said as she looked at his forearm.
"By the way, Where's your tattoo?" She said as she stared at the forearm.
"What tat....? Oh shit, I left my sword in my room." Zain said as he put his hands on top of his head.
"Sword? What do you mean?" She said with confusion.
"That tattoo you see in my forearm is my sword."
