The man bowed a little after Ethan pointed to him. To the man, it was a privilege to find out where Ethan's missing son was...he respected Ethan a lot.

"The whole of the Tuvalon Kingdom has been searching for you after the king promised certain rewards to whoever finds you, lots of communities have been searching around for you,

Not too long after coming back from my usual searching around for you, this man entered our compound and told me he knows where you are. So the first thing I did was to go inform some of the warriors of the current situation, and they decided to come along with me,

Then the man began leading us straight to this place. And here we are now, all thanks go to the man".

..And after Ethan made that last utterance, the man bowed a little once again.

After the king sent those messengers to tell people of the rewards that would be given to them if they can find out where Ethan's son was, many people began searching for him.

And many of them were doing it 'cause of the rewards not 'cause it was from their hearts. I mean, look at the rewards, gold, and lots of copper coins.

..Both people that were poor and average financially were searching for Aiden...they needed the rewards.

But the rich ones didn't involve themselves that much in the search. Now, some people sincerely wanted to find out where Ethan's son was, both people that were poor and average financially.

They weren't doing it for the rewards, they were doing it 'cause they felt Ethan didn't deserve what was happening to him. He was a warrior that was helping out this kingdom in many ways, and he was different from other officials like him.

..Now, that poor man was among the people that were sincerely searching for Ethan's son.

Though he was poor and needed financial assistance, he didn't really care about the rewards. He respected Ethan and wanted his son to be found. That's why even after finding out where Aiden was, he didn't go to the king to report it, he went straight to Ethan.

Now, if he had gone to the king, and it happens to be what he said was true, he actually knew where Ethan's son was...the rewards would have become his instantly.

If it were those people that were doing it mainly for the rewards, they would have gone straight to the king's palace. But he went straight to Ethan 'cause he didn't care about the rewards.

..Now, how did he discover where Aiden was?

He was watching out for people who were acting suspiciously and trailing them secretly, but it happens to be it was none of them that captured Aiden. Then one day, he sighted two of the assassins entering the forest to go meet Aiden and feed him.

He wasn't sure if Aiden was under their custody, so he decided to follow them and see where they were heading to. He wasn't sure if Aiden was under their custody, but one thing he was sure of was that they looked suspicious.

..From the way they were dressed and covering their faces with masks, they seemed like assassins.

The man coming across them was pure coincidence. And he made sure they didn't notice him while trailing them.

Now, Asher gave the assassins instructions to be cautious when entering the forest to go feed Aiden. Eyes were everywhere, people were searching for, Aiden.

..They were cautious...but seems like they weren't cautious enough.

While the man was trailing them, he heard them talking about Aiden, and that strengthened his conviction they were the ones that captured Aiden. He trailed them until he saw them entering the old edifice, and he quickly discerned Aiden must be in that edifice, then he went back.

And what did he do next? As we know, he reported it to Ethan. Now, after dropping the bombshell right in Ethan's compound, Emma heard it and ran out of the house to confirm if the man meant what he was saying.

Apart from Emma, Hazel, Alora, and Lydia also came out of the house to confirm if the man was telling the truth. And it happened to be that he was telling the truth, he knew where Aiden was.

While the man had already told Ethan he was gonna lead him straight to where Aiden was, Emma said she wanted to follow them. But Ethan told her to wait there, it was too risky.

If at all Aiden was truly at the place where the man said Aiden was, he was gonna bring him back safely...he promised her that. And as known, before heading to the place where Aiden was, Ethan brought more warriors along with him.

..And Aiden was here, safe and sound.

The man was poor but was a good person, he had Ethan's best interest at heart, he respected him, so he decided to help him without thinking about rewards.

..And do you know how Ethan felt? He felt the man deserved the best. He was gonna reward him personally, and he was gonna make sure the man gets all the rewards from the king for finding out where his son was.

Aiden thanked the man for finding out where he was and informing his dad about it, and all the man did was smile. Ethan was really happy at this moment, and he could imagine how happy Emma would be once she sets eyes on Aiden.

By now, Aiden had already disabled the heal and speed dash skill by saying it in his mind. And as of this moment, Ethan, Aiden, the warriors, and the man were already strolling out of the forest leaving the assassin's body there...the one Ethan killed.

Getting out of the forest, the warriors went to their different homes. The man went to his home as well after he and Ethan talked a little, then Ethan brought Aiden home.

The moment everyone in the Dankworth family set eyes on Aiden, they shouted out in joy, they were so happy to see him. Emma just kept hugging and pecking him as tears flowed out of her eyes.

She really missed him, she was just so grateful that he was alive, all her distress would be gone now. Hazel and the servants were happy to see him as well.

Aiden stink a little due to not taking his bath for days, so he freshened up after the passing of some minutes. And right now, all the Dankworth family were in the living room including Aiden.

..He wasn't stuck in one place anymore, the feeling was just too great, it feels good to be free.

And at that moment, they began asking him some questions, the questions were coming from Ethan and Emma. And the questions were like, how did it happen? Where did the capture take place? What was the experience like being a captive? Did they over-maltreat you?

Aiden gave answers to all their questions, and they were satisfied...he satisfied their curiosities. But at least, he was back now, Emma was really happy, she was the happiest person in that room, it wasn't easy losing a child, especially her only son that took her years to get.

At nighttime, the Dankworth family had dinner. Aiden ate with his family today, it's been days since this happened. At the hands of the people that captured him, he never ate himself, they had to feed him always.

..But now, here he was eating with his family again...it was a nice feeling.

Done eating, after the passing of some time, everyone went to bed. Aiden needed it 'cause for the past days, he slept while being tied to a chair. He dozed off while being uncomfortable.

But now, he can sleep on his bed and relax his body well, he really missed his bed. While he was lying on his bed, he began thinking of the events that took place this evening. How he avoided being killed with the help of his system.

If the system had given him that information a little late on how he could free himself from that chair, then those assassins would have succeeded in killing him. Not too long after loosening the rope around him, they entered.

..If he was still sitting on the chair tied to it at that time, then it would have been easy slashing for one of the assassins.

If the system had revealed the information to him earlier, then he would have escaped from that place since.

'I didn't think of it, I only needed a sword to loosen the rope around me, and it was in my item panel though I hadn't purchased it at that time. I wonder why the system didn't reveal the information to me earlier. Well, there's no use thinking about it when I wouldn't get an answer to it'. Aiden thought to himself.

..And after that thought ran through his mind, he closed his eyes, and in minutes...he dozed off.
