1 Chapter 1: Freedom
A girl about 12-13 years old was covered with blood all over her body, head to toe, but it didn't seem like the blood was hers. She was dressed in a simple white cotton dress, that now turned crimson red. Her unrealistic beautiful face was covered with blood.
She stood high in a clift, as her empty eyes looked down at the secluded normal-looking 3 storey building 2 km away from her. Playing with a bomb in her hands, she smirked. With her skinny limbs, she threw the bomb towards the building with unbelievable strength.
She then turned around, jumping off the high clift swiftly. A loud "BANG" sounded behind her, where the clift stood before. It was now obliterated by the bomb, that even ruined 60 m beneath. That finally erased it very existance.
Because of the explosion, the wind became slightly chaotic and made her beautiful long dark hair flutter.
She walked away unbothered, as if nothing happened just now. However, that little explosion gather the attention of many. Because the normal building she just bombered earlier, was the main secret headquarters of the strongest killer organization in the whole history.
After the explosion, dark clouds started to gather up above her. It started to rain heavily as she walked away far as she could from that place.
•••
It was already in the middle of the night and she could already feel her hunger. Because of the heavy rain earlier and her hunger, her body weekend greatly but she still pushed her self to walk step by step.
By the time she got out of the forrest, it was already near dawn and she could see cars passing by on the road in front of her. The blood on her body was already washed off by the rain so she probably wouldn't catch too many attentions onto herself.
"Tsk..." She said under her breath. She could really feel her hunger by this time and she could also feel that her body is already giving up. She still forced her self to walk a few steps but then her body finally fell on the ground as she mumbled "hmm.. Still human." Then she smirked.
Just after losing her consciousness, a limited edition Rolls Royce stopped just beside her unconscious body.
Inside, an old man between 60-70 years old, with a strong aura that surrounded him, he looked at his driver.
"Why did you stop?" He asked with clear indifference on his voice.
Being looked at by that old man, made the driver very nervous. Cold sweat ran down from his forehead as he looked back at the old man.
"M-master there's a girl who just fainted..." He said with all his strength.
The old man didn't reply at him, just glanced at the girl who fell unconscious on the ground. Then gave a side glance at the butler in the front seat.
"Pick her up." He ordered.
"Yes sir!"
The Butler immediately got out of the car and went to the girl's unconscious body. He first looked at her up and down, trying to figure out what made the master took liking to her.
He frowned seeing that she was dirty from the mud because of the rain, but still picked her up from the ground. He walked forward to the car then realization suddenly dawned apon him.
Where is he supposed to put her?!!
There was no trunk on thus car and he definitely shouldn't put her at the back seat where the master was, so was he supposed to put her in front with him.
While thinking about where he should put her, the window from the back seat rolled down, showing the handsome face of the old man.
"Bring her here." He order without much expression on his face.
"H-huh!.. Y-yes sir." He answered quite baffled. He immediately followed what was said and opened the back door to put the girl just beside the old man.
He went back to the front seat after putting the girl inside, then glanced at the front mirror, looking at the master who was examining the girls body.
'The old master isn't a pedophile.... Right?' He asked himself while cold sweat ran down his back.
While he was having a little war inside his head about the preferences of his master, the driver beside him asked.
"Sir, should we go to the first hospital?"
Being asked where to go, the old man who was still examining the little girl beside him. Looked at the driver. He seemed to be thinking about where to go, then replied.
"No, go straight to the main mansion." He simply said. Then looked at the girl again.
He examined her again head to toe, but didn't touch her. He could see dried blood on the side of her face, but didn't see any wound. Seeing that there were many dried up blood on her body, but not a single wound, he frowned slightly.
Looking at her for some time, he finally shifted his attention to the window, not paying attention to the girl anymore.

1 hour later.
The car stopped in front of a large golder gate.
And there stood two pillars, 5 meters away from each other, holding a big name plate. On the name plate, written in strong and bold characters were
"LU FAMILY'S MAIN MANSION".
It was the main mansion of the lu family, one of the riches and strongest family in Asia. And the old man inside the car was the old master of the family, Lu Gao. The business king in the past, and the father of the business king today.
In the past, he was the one who caried the Lu family to this heights, ruling over the business industry. And now he passed his crown to his eldest son, Lu Pei. The one who reign as the business king today.
The driver exchanged some few greatings to the gate guard, then entered the gate.
Driving inside, you could see a big mansion on top of the hill where they were driving through. They drove through many cherry blossom trees on the way and a garden filled with expensive flowers.
There were many servants on the way and gardeners that bowed to them. And they could see many maids running towards the main entrance of the mansion to line up in two rows to greet the arriving of the old master.
A few moments later, the driver stops in front of the main entrance where two rows of maids bowed to them.
The butler of the main house opened the door of the backseat where the old man was seated, but didn't expect that there was some unconscious girl beside him.
He composed himself and supported the old master from the car.
"Old master lu, the master and young master is inside." He professionally informed him.
"Hmm.." The old man simply replied.
He got off the car and walked towards the main door with his walking stick.
"*clears throat* Old master, what should I do with this girl?" The butler politely asked.
Old Gao stopped in his steps, slightly turned his face, and glanced sidewards the butler.
"Clean her up and call the main doctor." He indifferently said. And continued to head towards the door.
The head butler ordered some maid to arrange a room for the girl and buy some necessities for her. And ordered two maids to bathe her and then he called the main family doctor.

30 mins later.
Dining hall.
Old Gao sat it the head chair and Lu Pei San on his right. There was a quiet young boy around 14-15 years old beside him.
"Father, I heard you brought home a young girl?" Lu Pei asked.
"Hmm, I did." Old Gao said, confirming that he did.
Hearing his father's confirmation, Lu Pei didn't asked him anymore than that, and just nodded his head.
As the three of them were in the dinning room, the maids that took care of the girl that old Gao brought home were done cleaning her up, but one made suddenly noticed something.
She frowned, she swatted the girl's smooth long hair to the side to take a closer look at her neck. On the girl's neck she could see there were numbers written on it.
"001" was written in black ink.
"Hey, do you think this is a tattoo?" Asked the maid, pointing at the girl's porcelain neck.
The girl's skin was very white and smooth just like the most precious jade ever made, and that's the reason why the black and bold tattoo stood out.
"Try whipping it off." The other maid suggested.
Then the maid handed her a wet towel for her to wipe the ink away.
She took the towel from her and then she moved the girls hair again to the side, and was just about to wipe the ink with the towel but a beautiful white hand held her hand that was holding the towel, firmly.
She could feel the, earlier unconscious, girl's cold and empty eyes stare at her. And she couldn't look back. No, she was too afraid to look back. She just froze on the spot.
"Don't bother. Its tattoo." The girl said in a cold and clear voice. She then let go of the maids hands and stood up. Looking at her surroundings for some moment and then turned indifferent again.
Examining her clothes, she frowned. She was clothed in a white dress again, but the style was different from what she wore earlier.
The two maids was still dazed at her. Looking intently at her face, they were amazed. With their mouths open wide, enough for insects to come in.
Looking at the faces of the two maids, she was already used to it. Being looked at by people was no different from the usual for her, having experienced it all the time.
The two maids sooner got out of their dazed state and cleared their throat out of embarrassment.
"I-i would just inform the old master that you're already awake." After saying that she immediately flee, leaving the other maid to deal with her.
Having left with the girl, the other maid was feeling kind of awkward because of what happened earlier. So she tried to talk to the girl, to lessen the awkwardness between them.
But before she could speak, the girl spoke first.
"Are there other clothes beside this dress?" She asked without much expression on her face.
"Huh? Ah y-yes." The maid answered. She subconsciously straightened her back hearing the girl's orders.
The maid immediately ran to the closet that contained many types of clothing for the girl to choose from. She took out a girly dress, because she thought that the dress that the girl was wearing was too simple that's why she did not like it.
Showing the dress to her, the girl frowned even more.
"Is this not into your liking young ms.? Should I tell the butler to buy a little more expensive one?" the made asked with clear ridicule in her voice. She thought that she was just like all the young girl out there, a snobbish girl seeking riches and wanted to be spoild rotten. Just how could the old master bring her here?
