Chapter 13 - The Young Girl Fleeting Through The Town | Re:Library

Pushing her petite frame past the masses, Seletina made her way slowly through the commotion.

Following the aroma of the meat skewers that Yennis had become addicted to, she stopped at numerous stands. She even went to the stand where they’d bought the Pereta, but Yennis wasn’t there.

She then raced back to the fountain plaza in a hurry, but there were no signs of her brother.

I can’t find him anywhere…

The bottom of Seletina’s heart became filled with something dark and ominous. Her heart was racing wildly, and her palms were cold and sweaty.

Kidnapped. Although he may not look the part, Yennis is a charming kid. It’s possible.

Seletina ran, hoping to get rid of her worries. She fervently hoped that her thoughts were just that—thoughts.

Seletina ran. She kicked her tiny legs as quickly as she could.

Her deep blue eyes, however, did not show any glimpses of her brother. Seletina’s stamina finally reached its limit after running for almost 20 minutes. Her legs felt sluggish, and her severe asthma flared up.

What a weak and pathetic body.

Seletina cursed inwardly.

She crouched down where she had been standing and started coughing. People halted in their tracks to look at the girl who was knelt down and wheezing like a broken flute.

“Are you okay?”
“Should we call a doctor?”
“Where are your parents?”

Several kind-hearted people flocked to Seletina’s help, and a little crowd quickly formed around her.

But Seletina, coughing and wheezing, alerted them with her hand and hurriedly pulled out a vial of liquid medicine she had tucked away in her pochette. After a few beats, Seletina’s wheezing stopped, and her irregular breathing returned to normal.

The flock’s stress subsided as soon as they noticed this, and they all seemed relieved.

“I’m sorry I’ve troubled you. I am fine now, so please do not worry anymore.”

Seletina said, mustering a serene smile and bowing beautifully.

And although she smiled, the majority of her face was concealed by the hood.

“Don’t worry about it. Are you sure you’re alright?”
“Don’t push yourself. You’re one strong little missy, aren’t you?”
“Thank you for your concern, but I really am okay now. If you don’t mind me asking, have any of you seen a boy about my height with golden chestnut colored hair and amber eyes?”

Seletina could feel her body’s temperature rising. Even if the medicine had helped her avoid the asthma attack, she was unlikely to be able to prevent the rising fever.

But, Seletina didn’t care about that right now.

“So you’re lost. Now that I think about it, I saw a child like this being carried by quite a burly man towards the west gate of the town. Though it appeared that he was asleep.”

Seletina had not anticipated an answer when she raised the question, yet there was one. It was what people might refer to as a lucky break.

Seletina was filled with a joy that made one jump up and down, but it wasn’t long until a sense of urgency overshadowed it.

He really was kidnapped!

“Thank you!”

Seletina exclaimed while bowing deeply before taking off without so much as a second thought. The crowd of people was left there, dumbfounded and unsure of what had happened.

My feet are heavy. The fever is also gradually getting worse. So? What of it? Yennis, my brother, is in danger!

The beautiful lady raced through the streets of Buildua once more.
