Chapter 13: Unresolved Problem.
Everyone in the room is quiet. Conrad can’t think straight, as he is upset. He couldn’t believe that is what they saw him as, someone who is weak. He was the prince of Algoria, and commoners who he saw as people below him saw him as someone who’s weak. The more he thought about it the more he became furious.
’’How... dare...you. HOW DARE YOU!!’’
’’Your highness.’’ Godfrey interrupts ’’You should calm down, sir.’’
Conrad rushes out the room and bangs the door shut. Godfrey approaches the two boys lying in bed.
’’You two, do you know why or who attacked you?’’
’’I can’t say I do; I didn’t recognize them from around the city.’’ Apollo mentions.
’’I know, they were looking for me.’’
’’What?! why?!’’
’’Those guys are slave traders, and I was one of their slaves. A few months ago, I escaped and killed one their men. They probably came here kill me as revenge.’’
’’Slave owners? Isn’t that illegal?’’
’’Yes, owning slaves has been illegal for decades now, but unfortunately it hasn’t stopped some people. They still sell and buy slaves underground; they also take kids who haven’t awakened their uncos yet.’’ explains Godfrey.
’’Wow, this is just crazy. So, Amari you’ve killed a man huh? Cool.’’ Apollo shows him a thumbs up.
