She was part of the Karmis family, a family labeled to be just below the royal family in terms of hierarchy. They were the 1st-ranked nobility.�

It was out of the ordinary for the youngest daughter of such a family to hang out with tramps, but for the adolescent girl who was tired of living, being defiant was her only joy in life.

�This kid tried to kill someone, so we�re just trying to teach him some lessons.�

�N-No! I bumped into him without realizing it.�

�Ha! As if! You want me to believe that?�

When the burly man raised his foot to kick Shirone�s stomach, Shirone curled up in panic.

�Ugh.�

�You got to compensate, boy! Where�s your mom? I said go get her!�

Shirone was shocked.

Don�t they have parents as well? How could they curse the parents of other people like that?

�The look in your eyes has changed. Are you upset?�

The tramps who noticed the anger in Shirone rushed in and started beating him down.

�Stop it. You�ll hurt him too much.�

As soon as the tramps backed away, she jumped down from the wooden box and approached Shirone.

�You okay?�

�I-I didn�t do anything.�

�Nobody said anything. I�m asking if you�re okay.�

Amy stared at Shirone�s face.

�Don�t make such a face with just that. It�s as if someone just kicked your puppy. I�ve lived a much harder life than you!�

In the eyes of others, being the only daughter of the Karmis family would seem like a privilege.

�I�ve lived a harder life than you. I worked my ass off to get to where I am today, so why must I sympathize with you?�

It was also her who conquered the tramps in this back alley, where all kinds of crimes were prevalent.

Even if it was a childish thought, the story changes depending on one�s status.

Amy turned her head to the tramps.

�What are you going to do now? Do you have anything more interesting in mind?�

Shirone, who thought he was going to be let go, was surprised.

On the other hand, the tramps, who knew of Amy�s bad temper, spoke calmly.

�We were planning on just checking for money then selling him away to a brothel after.�

Amy smirked.

Of course, she had no intention of going through with what the backstreet tramps were planning to do. JrNovels.com
