In the barren wasteland, a Carriage was riding in a dirt road in this wasteland when the driver saws a person in a robe holding a sword.
The Carriage stops, and a person asked the driver
"What's the hold up" the man said
"I'm sorry sir but there's a person in the road"
"Huh? In this Barren land" The man look outside and the Person is being pursued with the guards who escorting him
The man look at the person, and said to himself "This is perhaps a Trap? No... Probably a person who tried to escape to another country... This person probably trying to get out of a certain country..."
The man goes outside and said
"Lower your weapons"
"But Sir"
"Lower your weapons we're not murderer... Now young person who are you and why are you blocking the road"
The person replied.
"I need help, I'm lost... I wanna get out of this place"
The man was shocked that it's a young girl's voice, and talk to himself
"Wait I'm not prepared for this... Think Julian, Your the next leader to the city you got this"
"Your order sir"
"Come on inside"
"What sir!?" The 2 escort guard was surprised what happened
"That's my order, let the young girl inside"
The 2 guard lower their weapon, and sheath it.
The girl was Escorted to the carriage.
"Now your here... So how did you get here?"
The girl open her mouth and said
"I don't know I just got here... I don't know where I live."
"Huh? A lose person... Perhaps your another worlder?"

"Another world? I don't know anything what happened..."
"Well, I guess I don't have any idea, But in couple of hours. We will entering the border of the Human kingdom"
"Human kingdom?" The girl sounds confused. So the man replies with "perhaps you have memory problem... But if we got there. My Son is all grown up now-"
Suddenly a Gush of wind blows off the carriage off the road.
"Sir Julian, Are you okay!?"
"Don't worry about me, Is the kid alright?"
"She's... Not here?" They look outside.
"Oh god, are you okay?" The girl was buried face down to the sand.
The guard pull her out and In that moment, The robe cover her hair and face was seen by the guard.
"Woah"
One of the guard hit his face and said "You..."
"I'm fine, don't worry about me"
The driver tried to push the carriage back to the dirt road. "Hey guards! Can you help me with this"
Suddenly, a large rumbling was heard underground. The guards pull out their sword.
Julian pulls out his long sword also.
The girl stands there. With no emotion or reaction of what's going to happen. Then
A large centipede like creature destroy sand underground, and appears
"Shit it's a Vicipede"
The 2 guard charge and slice the bottom, Inflicting heavy damage. Julian use his Affinity
"Holy Heavily Flame sword!"
and slice clean off to the Vicipede.
"Hah! Truly Worthy"
Said to himself.
The girl in her thoughts
"I guess they didn't notice... What i did" the girl using her affinity. To lower the Vicipede's reaction time, add confusion and also decrease it's defense.
"Well at least their happy about it"
After couple of minutes later. They removed the Vicipede to the side of the road and start remove it's scales.
"Damn This is actually my first time fighting one I thought we where going to be killed"
The guard look at the young girl
"Hey don't touch that!"
The girl is touching the exoskeleton of the Vicipede
"That's highly poisonous, if you eat it"
"Don't worry I won't"
A hour later, Their back in the road, and with full of scales and the exoskeleton with there hands, They can sell this for the city.
But suddenly in curiosity, Julian ask the young girls name
"I almost forgot where almost here now. We already pass by the Barren wasteland. What is your name"
"My name..." In her head "ah I forgot to mention it... I think Meru is fine is not really a Popular "Gods/goddess name"
"Meru... Just call me Meru"
"Well Meru... What are you gonna do now?"
"Actually... I don't have money... So I can't stay anywhere"
"Why not going to my place, I suppose there's at least a guess room"
"Wait are you sure?"
"Sure why not, And I will also gonna introduce you to my son"
The carriage stops, and the doors open
"Welcome home, Sir Julian"
"I'm finally home, Ms. Ashy"
"I do respect tou Sir, please refrain me of calling me that, It's Ashley"
"Okay Ashley"
"Ehem... Sir what about the kid... Whose she?"
"Ah she's a girl i pick up during my travel... She's a very special person"
"I see I understand"
Meru looks at them in suspicious, Then she was escorted and was brought to the guess room.
"Woah a bed... Fluffy... We don't have this in the there... Speaking off- They manage to create a city this fast. After the 8 Kingdom that Used to here was destroyed. And plus... They're still using the old language..."
A maid checks in and said to her
"Ms. The bath is ready"
In the bathtub
"Woah... This feels nice. Even in a small bath it can be nice"
Meru, Left the bathroom, and look at the mirror. "So this is how I looks like as a Human... Not gonna lie, I like this more than my Old one"
Then a Knock on the door. A Maid step in and said
"Ma'am your cloths"
"My clothes? What happen to the old one"
"It's been washed one of the maid"
"I see"
She was escorted to the living room where Julian was waiting. The door closes and windows where shut tight by the maids.
"So now... How did you do it"
The tension rise, as Julian said that word
"You mean when your fighting the Vicipede?"
"Yes, Vicipede has a thick Shells that is impossible to cracked with a normal sword. But the 2 guard just cracked it open"
"Perhaps, it was weaker"
Julian hesitate is next question then.
"That is a possibility... But I notice what You did"
"I see so you caught me... Now what are you gonna do?"
"Nothing really... Actually one thing- I want you to be one of my family"
"Family?"
"The way your face, and how lack of emotion you expressed feels uncomfortable, as a Father If I see my son looking like a doll, I will be hurt. So when I saw you helpless in that barren wasteland, I pick you up"
"Your not gonna used me for a tool?"
"That never passes to my mind actually, Besides. I already have my skills and experience to prove it"
Then Meru, look at Julian straight in the face and said
"Sure I will accept this offer, But one thing"
"What is it?"
"I want you to keep this a secret... Don't speak anything about me outside of this house, nor my powers"
"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me"
