Allegiance

Dudian stepped down along the wooden stairs. He entered the torture room. There was a young guard sitting behind the counter and readering a paper book. There was six of seven meters of distance between them but Dudian was able to see that it belonged to category of indecent books about love between of men and women. He frowned slightly.

The young guard heard the footspets and put folded the book in hurry. He thought that colleagues had come but looked up to see a strange boy. He stuffed the book into the drawer and took the whip with a bit of excitement. However he suddenly found out that there was no handcuffs on Dudian's body and there were no knights of magistrate who escorted him.

"Who are you?" The young guard frowned.

Dudian glanced at him: "I'm going to bail out prisoners."
