《The Cursed Throne》Chapter 6
Advertisement
Daisy Riley was extremely pampered and spoiled since she was young. Because her Mother died just after giving birth to her, she was even more spoiled by her father. So she was always very arrogant. But regardless of her arrogance, she never used her power or position to bully the weak. From when she was little, she always admired the ally of justice in fictions. So she always interfered whenever she saw something wrong, and because she was the daughter of the mayor of city Z, she never got in any trouble.
But today things never went as they always have been. Due to her strong sense of justice, Daisy tried to stop some delinquents who were about to kidnap a young woman. From the way they looked at her, Daisy knew they were up to no good. She tried stopping them, but she never thought that instead of stopping they suddenly got violent and tried to kidnap her too. She did everything she could to resist them. But unfortunately, even her bodyguards were killed trying to protect her. Even using the name of the mayor was of no use.
“Well, this chick is quite good as well and on top of that she’s a virgin. I’m sure we will get a good price for her.” One of them said while laughing.
“But big brother, it looks like this brat has some background. I’m afraid….” Another one said a little cautiously.
“What’s there to be afraid of? Boss will take care of everything else. We just have to do our work.” ‘Big Brother’ said while sneering. These were the only words she heard before she felt a sharp pain in her head and was knocked unconscious.
After Daisy regained her consciousness, she found herself tied up by a rope in a dark room. She looked around and found a door and someone stands while guarding it. She somehow managed to sit up after a bit of struggle. But just as she got close to the door, she could hear some voices talking to each other.
"Two ladies Alex bought today looks quite delicious, don’t they?" One of them said while laughing.
“I pity them to be honest. Just because boss took liking for them, they will be used for his lust and then sold truly a pity.” Another one said while sighing.

“Well there is no use thinking too much about it. Their fate will be same as all the girls who came here before.”
Another said with ‘I don’t really care’ attitude. Although this conversation doesn’t mean too much to these guys, it was like a thunderclap for Daisy on the other side of the door. She suddenly started regretting her actions. She hated herself for butting in without thinking anything. When she thought of what’s going to happen to her she started crying. One of the guards standing near the door frowned and said,
"Looks like our little angle woke up. Let’s go greet her.” He opened the door and rest of the guys followed after him. When they saw Daisy crying while all tied up, they suddenly felt extreme pity for her. No matter what, Daisy was still only a 13-year old little girl. So it was normal to think like this or, so they thought. One of the guys standing in back suddenly came back to reality and shouted,
“Get a hold of yourself, there is something wrong.” When everyone else heard these words, their bodies suddenly shook and all the look of pity was gone from their eyes and replacing it was puzzlement. The guard, who first opened the door, said angrily,
“Damn bitch, you dare to play trick on us."
When Daisy heard his voice she knew her plan failed. Yes, this was Daisy’s ability known as ‘Charm’. ‘Charm’ was Grade B ability because it was able to cause great disturbance in a person’s mindset. Unfortunately, as her ability was not fully grown, she wasn’t able to do much of it. At first, she hated this ability. When she came to know that her ability was such a shameless one. She instantly hated it. But right now it was her only option or, so she thought but in the end it was still of no use. Just as she was about to accept her fate, she saw that some guards were still in daze. She thought of something, and tried to use her ability once more. Although she knew it was a futile struggle, it was still better than nothing. Contrary to her expectation, when she used her ability once more, it worked better than before. While everyone else was in daze, she used this chance to escape. She used her ability whenever she came in contact with someone and sweet-talked her way out. But using an ability she was not used to, was extremely taxing on her mind. She was on the verge of collapsing, but she somehow held onto it. She might have given up long before, but when she was escaping she heard the vulgar and indecent voices coming from one of the room and the voice of the woman was extremely familiar to her. When she thought this was her fate if she doesn’t escape now, she used everything she had to run away.

Because of fatigue, she wasn’t even sure how far she has run too. Just when she was about to give up, she suddenly saw a ray of hope. Not far for where she was, she saw shadow of a person. Although it was only one person, she thought it was still better than nothing. So she shouted with whatever strength she had left, “Please help me, these guys are about to….” But she suddenly stopped. All her hopes were turned to ash in a single moment. Because what she saw there was just a child who wasn’t even 10 years old yet. All her joy turned to despair. ‘So this is it I guess’ she laughed bitterly to herself and lost consciousness.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
When Daisy regained consciousness, she found herself inside a building. “So it was impossible to escape after all” she laughed to herself after thinking of the fate that awaits her. But then she saw that the place she was at was rather quiet. There were no guards or even the door was wide open.
“Strange, did they forget to lock the door? That’s impossible.”
Daisy cautiously walked towards the door. But what she saw scared her speechless. ‘No way’ she covered her mouth with shock. Because what she saw there, was the same child who she saw before losing consciousness confronting the thugs who chased after her. Although she wasn’t able to hear the conversation, she was sure that things were bad for that kid by seeing the expression of the thugs. Just as she was thinking all this, guy with the hardening ability suddenly attacked. She was shocked and was about to shout, when she saw the kid gracefully dodging the incoming fist. She opened her eyes wide after seeing such a scene. When she saw the kid repeatedly dodging the punches she had nothing left to say. Just when she was admiring that graceful form, next scene caused her to almost throw up. She saw that suddenly the arm of the thug disappeared in the thin air. For a young girl who was pampered for childhood, this scene was a bit too much. But she somehow managed to control herself. But when she saw that kid covered entirely in blood after killing that thug, she was a bit dazed. She didn’t think that he was a devil or something. But to her that form which was covered in blood but still had a calm and beautiful smile on his face was extremely,
“Beautiful” she said subconsciously. After sending of the other thug, the boy started to walk towards her. For some reason she felt a bit nervous seeing his walking this way.
“It, looks like you are awake” The boy said with a calm smile. With deep blue eyes and tender smooth skin he looked like someone who god made extremely carefully. Although Daisy was a bit dazed, she hurriedly regained her calm and replied with a red face,
“I’m fine, thank you for saving me.”
“Not at all, I was just passing by when I saw you. I can’t just ignore something like this and walk away right?” He replied while laughing.
"My name is Daisy. May I have the honor to ask your name?” Daisy asked him a little nervously as though afraid that he won’t tell his name.
“There is no need to be formal Miss Riley, My name is Sid. It’s nice to meet you.” He replied with a smile. When Daisy saw his smiled something changed inside her. But one thing was clear, ‘this person is the light of my life’ she thought to herself.

Musings of a Hypocrite
Mortals are weird. They insisted in unity, as well as individualism. More often than not, they're shocked at truth and honesty, but not at falsehood and deceit. They asked questions with multiple answers, and provided answers that begged other questions. They made things to break, they destroyed things to study, they researched things to recreate. Humans, Elves, Beastmen. All of them. Within these contradictions, a miracle might manifest. But this tended to work with a trial and error methodology. Most mortals never got the happy ending. This diary is my journey alongside a few students of mine. In simple terms - they learn, they grow, they fight. They'll journey through centuries of conflict, from the physical to the educational. They'll experience the cruelty and benelovence of all living-kind. They'll experience the consequences of their choices and the blessings of their rewards. They will grow to become useful to me, or die trying like all the others. As for you? The god reading our lives like a book, sitting in your chair without a care in the world? I will show you, the farce that is known as 'God'.
