city, one shouldn’t underestimate its size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just the properties that the nobles alone had within the town, coupled with the well-spaced out homes and farms... it took them 47 minutes to get to the town square from her home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as they passed, they heard several weird noises coming from these noble estates and properties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They even witnessed a noble getting dragged on the floor, which made their eyes almost fall out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell was going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These nobles were like giants in their hearts that could never be defeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why did they seem like toys in the hands of these soldiers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister, they’re powerful!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah... but what did these nobles do to get dragged like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know sister, but I’m glad they did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Have you forgotten how Baron O’Hara’s wife threw boiling water on your face?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, half of it is burnt!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll never forgive them for what they did to you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naomi looked at her brother and sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She once accidentally angered a noble’s wife while eating outside a restaurant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the noblewoman, whose husband owns the restaurant asked for then to bring a jug of hot water over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The results were as such.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was allowed to move the whole time the entire jug of hot water was dumped on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So half of her face and scalp had been burnt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such was the life of the poor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could only blame herself for passing by and eating outside the restaurant at that unfortunate time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now with her face disfigured, who would marry her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The incident happened just last year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after that, her fiance’s family cancelled the engagement because they were afraid that she would birth ugly children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she was already 16 this year and no man had proposed or even offered to date her after she got burnt and dumped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire town looked at her in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the town monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naomi shook her head in an attempt to get rid of her sad emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want her brother to know her thoughts, so she focused her attention on the scene she had just witnessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What intrigued her was the scene where these noblemen got dragged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But remembering the words from the town crier, it seems that her curiosity would only be satisfied once she gets to the square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she dragged her brother’s hand and speeded up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The duo finally arrived on the scene and as expected, many distanced themselves from them all because of Naomi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some even closed their children’s eyes, as they heard all sorts of tales about Naomi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard that after the incident, she started having nightmares that connected her to several demons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s old news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only had she been in contact with them, but she’s also cursed with bad luck too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why her father died within the same year that she got burnt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She probably killed the poor man and offered his soul to the demon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But didn’t the healer say that her father died of overwork?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pui!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What overwork?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that she bribed that healer to say so.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How terrible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s only half of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I heard that she is actually the witch Pangera, and those creatures in the cave are her pets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s said that once they die, she too will die since she signed a blood oath with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if she’s really the witch, then why doesn’t anyone burn her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s because she’s just too strong!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She got burnt in a large fire and didn’t die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what can anyone do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Didn’t she get burnt from hot water and not fire?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"_\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, all sorts of made-up stories about Naomi came up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a few people saw the scene when the noblewoman poured hot water on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even though the word spread like wildfire... every time it passed from one mouth to another, the story changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result was that now, she had magically become a witch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they were still too scared to make a move on her because of the magnitude of the stories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who knew if she would suck out their souls after attacking her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one dared to go against her or her near to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logan clenched his fists angrily, while Naomi didn’t care at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was normal for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the only reason why she came here again was because she was curious about anything concerning these Baymardians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were the only ones who didn’t shy away from her or look at her in fear or disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These Baymardians had seen patients with cleft lips that were shooed and abandoned by society.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So what more of her who just got accidentally burned?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What demon?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though many people were getting more aware of some things, many were still ignorant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only unfortunate that many from this town who went to Baymard didn’t see how these Baymardians treated disable or injured people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or else they would be shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One should know that visiting Baymard for these people was like travelling for holidays, since they worked 24 hours a day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they only went to Baymard when they had saved up a lot of money or needed medical help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even when they went, they only stayed for at most 3 or 4 days to eat, buy things for their families and whatnot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So there were still many things that they weren’t aware of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And some have never even seen Baymard too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Naomi, she went there last year to seek help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her neither had given her all his savings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But surprisingly, she had stayed in the same ward with a 45-year-old last who opted to pay for all her follow up expenses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And ever since she followed their treatment plan, her burn marks were already healing and diminishing nicely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was burnt with a jog of hot water and not actual fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it wasn’t too skin deep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a matter of time before she got healed up... at least that’s what the doctor in Baymard told her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, these Baymardians had always treated her with love and not disdain or fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she always felt like they were amazing people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That said, once she heard the town crier say that a new change was upon Menda Town, she knew that it involved these Baymardians from the Capital city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s the main reason why she was so excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed by fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And soon, most people had arrived... as well as Jamison, the Baymardian officials and some soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone quieted down and looked at the podium enthusiastically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was all this about?\u003C\u002Fp>",1141,"2026-06-03T07:55:30.598Z","2026-06-03T07:55:37.921Z",1,"novelbin.me","9f5603a06f874850c0bb22810afc399dabb598fe38cc385dc071f91ba39e2591","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-729","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-727",1977,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-the-king-of-technology-cover.jpg"]
