Rebirth Of The Heroine

Chapter Forty three: Shattered Kingdom.

After freeing Ajay, Mia asked Ajay to take him to the auction house, but before they could take any step further, the seer had already appeared beside them.

"Are you looking for me?" The seer asked with a smile.

"Actually, you can say so." Mia answered.

"So, what do we do next?" Mia asked.

"The decision is in your hands. Will you prevent this kingdom from being ruled by a bad leader or you'll just leave it alone and go to the next kingdom?" The seer asked.

Mia thought about it for a while before giving a reply. "I think I know what to do." Mia said as she went towards the king's chamber.

The king saw Mia coming, and he ordered his guards to stop her from entering but unfortunately, Mia had already entered before the guards could do anything.

"What do you think you're doing? Get her out!" The king shouted but the guards are hesitant to move. They saw the fight between Mia and Zazu, and they knew that they are not a match for Mia's strength.

"Dear king, I've come in peace, but why are you like this." Mia said softly.

"Wh--what do you want?" The king asked.

"I just want you to stop trading slaves for money. I want you to stop charging people money before they could enter. I want you to stop every crazy business you're doing." Mia said.

"I--I can't do that for you. I am the king here!" The king shouted.

"So, is that why you sold your slaves to the other kingdom rulers? You even have the guts to sell the people you lead to the other kingdoms." The seer said angrily and she was talking, her eyes was getting brighter in white light and immediately, the king became a dust.

The guards that were in the room were scared and they feel like running but their legs were too shaky to move.

Mia, on her own side wasn't expecting what the seer had done and she felt a little guilty for the death of the king. She had decided to talk things out with the king and maybe he could repent and change his attitude but the seer had made things worse by killing the king. If she hadn't came to meet the king, she knew that he wouldn't have been dead by now.

"Why did you have to kill him?" Mia asked angrily.

"Don't try to misunderstand me. What this man did was wrong and he's worth to be killed. Do you know how many lives he had destroyed because of his selfishness and love of money. He's a devil and he's not meant to be alive. Many people have become slaves because of him and he's the reason why there are limited amount of people in this kingdom." The seer explained.

Mia couldn't argue anymore, yes, the seer is right, the man really deserves to be killed. The late king, Smith, violated a lot of rules by denying human their freedom to live freely. He turned the old and young into slaves and made them suffer for the rest of their lives. They are all out there, in another man's kingdom, serving as a slave to them when they have their own kingdom, their own homes.

They curse at the one that had caused them to be a slave, Smith, the wicked beast in an human clothing.

Mia, the seer, Ajay and the king's personal guards went outside the king's chamber to address everyone in the kingdom.

As soon as the people saw Mia, they all rushed to meet her and what broke Mia's heart was that, they all had tears in their eyes.

"Please save our daughter, she's been sold off to a merchant in the kingdom near us." some parents cried out.

"Help my wife and kids. They have been sold off to the king of a kingdom." A man in his middle age, said.

"My mother, save my mother." A young teenage kid said.

"Father! Father!" A little girl cried, she's of the age of ten years old.

Mia felt so sorry for all of them and her herself was almost at the point of shedding tears. She know what it means to lose a family. Even though she's not so close with her father the king unlike her mother, she is still missing him badly.

The time they spent together is a short one and they didn't get to talk much because she was a princess. The only person the king is close to is the crown prince. Not even the two queens were able to see the king all the time.

Mia went closer to the little girl and knelt down to talk to her, she asked of her name, but the girl answered by saying; "Father, I want my father back. Bring him back for me." The young girl kept on crying and shouting.

Mia felt more sorry for the girl and she promised in her mind to help everyone of them out. She stood up from where she was kneeling as she moved back to the front. But, someone grabbed her hands.

When Mia turned to look at the person, it happened to be a young teenage boy who is also searching for his mother.

Mia felt that the grip of this young boy is so strong and if he happens to punch someone, the person might pass out completely, if he's not strong.

"Her name is Roselle and my name is Greg, her father was killed personally by the king, because he protected my mother from being assaulted and used as a slave by him." The young teenage boy said. "But I don't know where my mother is.." The boy continue to cry.

Now Mia knew what happened to the parent of the two kids. Smith had caused a lot of heart to be broken, a lot of lives to lost, a lot of people to suffer, a lot of people to be taken, a lot of people to cry, a lot of people to have no future, a lot of people to hate their lives, a lot of people to be disassembled, a lot of people to commit suicide, a lot of people to kill their own families, a lot of people to curse the supreme being, a lot of people to become homeless, a lot of people to be sad, a lot of people to be orphan.

What will Mia do to solve all this problem that Smith had caused in a kingdom. To be honest, Mia was angry for not making Smith suffer in the presence of everyone before he died. Mia really need to help this people out of their shattered lives.
