This time Sam recognized the place of the scene. It was a small room in an old-looking stone building. This Sam recognized—all noble villas had somewhat similar structures to them. The bed, the armor stand—everything in the room was something he recognized.
A kid, some 2–3 years old, was breathing hard. Strange thing, though—his face looked nothing like the kid Sam had just seen in that garden. It was a different kid. Sam bent down and saw the child hiding beneath the bed. He was trying hard to cover his ears too—only then did Sam realize people were arguing outside the room.
They were saying things like, 'What will his future be?', 'Give him a chance, it's just stats—he can still prove to be a talented kid!', and 'Can't you see? He is a fool. He doesn't understand a thing we say to him—he just wants to play around all day!'
