The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 31 - Tailor



Sigh….."

While grabbing his bear, a 45-year-old man was pondering about his situation. His name was Tailor, he was a farmer in wasteland valley since he came to this town four years ago, his wife died when this little boy was born.

"Dad…. Did I do something wrong?" Said a little boy with black hair who was next to him.

Tailor looked at the little boy and smiled while caressing the little boy\'s head.

"No.. Don\'t worry, little pit , you didn\'t do anything wrong" Said Tailor

This little boy was the only family he had left, he wasn\'t born in Wasteland Valley, he was born in Utio Town. Utio Town was a big and prosper town in Leitol, it was under the protection of goddess Yutio, as a matter of fact, the name of the town is a tribute to their goddess. Tailor used to be just a small teacher in Utio Town, he used to teach the noble families. One day, he accepted the job to be the personal teacher of a rich noble girl, Teresa Utio , she was the successor of the throne in Utio Town. Unexpectedly, this two had a good relationship, Tailor saw her as a daughter, and Teresa, could see in him, a father figure.

Years when by and Teresa finished her studies with Tailor, however, they didn\'t stop seeing each other, they were good friends after all. One day, Tailor was just lazing around in his home when someone knocked his door, he was surprised to see her , she was one of the servants of Teresa, however, what he was most surprising, it was the little "object" in her hands.

"What-"

"There is no time, please let me come in" Interrupt the girl.

Tailor didn\'t have time to say anything before the girl came in and closed the door. He served her a cup of tea and then, the both sat down, looking at each other.

"Mr. Tailor, I have a request from my lady, please take this child with you and get out of Utio Town" Say the girl while giving the little baby to Tailor.

"What? What are you talking about? Where is Teresa?" Said Tailor while feeling a sense of crisis.

The girl just looked down with a sad expression, the feeling of crisis in Tailor\' heart became even stronger.

"My lady…..is dead!"

"WHAT!?" Shout Tailor while grabbing the girl\'s shoulders.

"My lady…. My lady came to my room a few minutes ago, she was covered in blood while holding this child.... She told me to bring him to you, and also, to tell you that you must protect this child, at any cost…then...then….. She stopped breathing" Said the girl while crying.

Tailor was in shock, he collapsed on his chair.

"She is dead, how, why, why is she dead!" murmured Tailor.

Just as he was about to ask something, a sound came from outside.

"WHERE IS SHE!? FIND HER! I WANT THAT KID!" A voice of a man could be heard, Tailor recognized this voice, it was the voice of one of his students, the little brother of Teresa, the crown prince of Utio, Sebas Utio!

"Please! Protect this child!" Say the girl while giving the child to Tailor one more time.

Tailor looked at the child, he didn\'t know what to do.

"TAILOR! OPEN THE DOOR! THIS IS AN ORDER!" Suddenly a voice came from outside, it was one of the soldiers.

Tailor just looked at the girl one more time, before he grabbed the child and run towards the back door. Before he went outside ,he could hear that the soldiers had already forced his way inside the house.

"WHERE IS HE!? ANSWER YOU FUCKING BITCH!"

"YOU WON\'t GET ANYTHING FROM ME!"

"THEN DIE!"

Tailor couldn\'t hear more and grabbed his horse. He went far away, and he stopped when the horse could not run anymore. He left the horse there and run into the forest. He ran like he had never run before. After two days, he got to a nearby town, there he called one of his acquaintance and ask for some gold, he used the money to buy food and a carriage, he left the same today.

"The farthest town in Leitol is Wasteland Valley" Thought Tailor.

It was night, he could finally catch a break, after that, he looked at the little boy in his arms, he couldn\'t help but remember Teresa, he couldn\'t stop the tears falling from his cheeks.

"I promise I will protect this kid, even if it cost my life" Though Tailor with resolution.

After traveling for 3 months, he sold the carriage and used the money to buy a small house to a family in Wasteland Valley, the family, who wanted nothing more than get out of that dead land, accept with pleasure. Tailor asked them before they left to teach him how to farm, which they did. After that, four years have passed in the blink of an eye, he taught his "son" how to read and math, however, he didn\'t know how, but he learned how to write out of nowhere. When he asked him where did he learned that, little pit responded.

"I just learned it observing how you do it, it\'s not so difficult" Said pit.

Tailor was stunned.

"Not difficult? You know how many years it took me to learn how to write, little bastard" Thought Tailor with a bitter smile. He knew that this kid wasn\'t normal, the speed of how he learned things was astonished.

"Maybe this was the reason why Teresa wanted to protect you? But why?"

This question has been in the head of Tailor all these years, however, it was still a mystery.

He decided to keep this fact as a secret, it wasn\'t so difficult thought, after all, Wasteland Valley was a dead land, however, this morning a few soldiers came asking for some questions, Tailor, who hasn\'t told little pit that he need to be low profile, spill the beans in a sec.

"Don\'t worry little pit, I won\'t let anyone hurt you" Said Tailor with a smile

"Yeah!" Said the little fellow with emotion and then hugged tailor\'s leg.

"But dad, why are you still calling me "little pit"! I am an adult now! Please called me by full name!" Say little pit with a funny expression.

At seeing him, Tailor couldn\'t help but laugh.

"Ok, ok , little adult, how about you use that energy to help with these vegetables?" Say Tailor

"Okey~" Say little pit.

The next day, Tailor was about to resume his usual daily work, when someone knocked his door.

"Hello, my name is Alfonso Lockheart, do you mind if we have a little chat?" Say a young man with blonde hair and purple eyes.
