"Who are you?" Asked Prince Shun who was already in front of him while directing his eagle gaze at the woman.
The woman being questioned could only be silent without flinching even a little while staring intently at her interlocutor. He exhaled a short breath and then closed his eyes. After that he completely disappeared from the sight of the two of them.
Erdwan who had been holding the woman back from escaping suddenly was like a dazed dog trying to reach his tail.
"Who are you fucking going?! How dare you run away!" Erdwan grumbled as he pointed his sword in any direction.
"Hey I'm near you! Careful dong!" Tegur Prince Shun when Erdwan's sword almost hit him if he didn't dodge.
"I'm sorry, Prince, I'm so upset that he kicked my handsome face so in retaliation I'll make him dinner tonight." Erdwan again played his sword agilely and nimble around the Prince so that his enemy could not get close to his master. This time he looked as serious as chasing after someone, and wanted to pounce on him.
His actions were finally met with resistance as well and resulted in a loud enough sound due to the meeting of two sharp weapons.
Prince Shun immediately sat back and looked at the interesting scenery in front of him. Until finally the supernatural woman was behind Prince Shun while sticking a weapon on the Prince's neck. While he threatened it looks disrespectful and busy playing a flower in his hand.
"...Fine..evil...good.evil...good..." Prince Shun said as he plucked flower petals in his hands one by one.
"Alright I'm sure you have no bad intentions, and just want to test my abilities, because first, if you have evil intentions there is no way you can attack me blatantly, he said, you don't even know who the target is and secondly you don't even use sharp weapons, thirdly, since you fought, my friend Erdwan has not been scratched at all." Prince Shun then clasped the hand of the woman carrying the weapon and lowered it.
"Say, what was your purpose and purpose in coming here?" Ask the Prince in a firm tone.
Erdwan approached the two of them and was stunned when he saw the woman begin to appear again.
Erdwan saw clearly this time the flower emblem made of emerald stone was worn as a brooch attached right in the middle of his chest, meaning that the woman was a trained illusionist magician from the kingdom of Arrenthia.
"I just want to make sure that you're strong enough for the Prince to survive here, because I hear you've been hit by a few sudden attacks from unknown people, he said, after all King Arrenthia also asked you to return there immediately, it seems that there is an important affair in the kingdom that desperately needs your help and can only be resolved by you." He said as he squatted saluted by crossing his right hand in front of his chest and his left hand touching the ground.
"Ohhh, I think it's a coup that happened there again, was I told to crush all those who resisted?"
"Yes Prince, you are our 'strongest weapon', even they also made alliances with other kingdoms, therefore we ask for your help to crush those who rebel and protect the people in the kingdom of Arrenthia."
"What the fuck! If the Prince does that again, maybe his age will not be enough to mature later!" Deny Erdwan who felt disapproving. Because every use of that great magic will reduce the life span of the witch herself, except for the magic that uses Rukh.
"I see, I'm just a tool in my kingdom, but I'm proud to be used as a tool to quell evil and protect virtue."
"Prince... What about our plan to investigate the secret behind what happened to Leca if you leave..?" Erdwan asked, he very much hoped that Prince Shun would reject the woman's invitation.
The prince seemed to think for a moment then he suddenly smiled a little while giggling himself occasionally.
Erdwan stared flatly at his master. "What happened to the prince? Is he possessed?! Oh my god give me back my normal and kind Prince" he said in his heart.
"I have a great plan hehe,"
"What?"
"Before that I will do the seal of eternal bond to Leca hehe, that way she will always be safe, even though I cannot be near her, my clone will protect her."
"No way, the seal will make you aware of all of Leca's actions, even when she's thinking! That's very, very perverted Prince.It turns out you're more disgusting than I thought."
The blush on the handsome face of prince Shun suddenly lit up making his aura of good looks and timidity emanate clearly, he really had no intention let alone think like that Erdwan had said.
"I. will limit my use ehh I mean the usefulness of the seal, I will not perfect the seal, understand you damn it!" Reply Prince Shun who felt unacceptable.
"Yaaayaa it's up to you, after all who can do the seal is only a great witch, Saint dannn." Erdwan replied with a very forced face.
Prince Shun cleared his throat then told the woman to stand up because she was just sitting there listening to their conversation.
"Please give us your name, it's rude that you know my name but you don't tell us your name,"
"My name is Elaine Whiteheart, the royal-trained witch of Arrenthia..." His reply made the two of them stunned to hear his surname.
"You're ad-"
"Sorry..." Prince Shun felt guilty.
He never intended or intentionally killed the entire Whiteheart family. Such an incident was truly a huge mistake for him to be unable to control his power trying to overhaul it out of his control. It happened before she studied magic in the Aldric royal academy, at which time her power was often out of control and endangering many people.
And now it didn't feel like he had been in this Frost Kingdom for five years to become a trained tool, many things he had learned secretly without the knowledge of the academy, even so, he did not mean to be as evil as wanting to know the weakness of this kingdom, he did not want such information at all. All he wanted was the information surrounding him that was a saint, and how to prevent his age from being consumed by the magic used by him.
"Ekhem.." Erdwan cleared his throat as the atmosphere between the three of them looked stiff.
"Hans is like my own brother, I respect him as a brother and also a teacher even though I
"Here comes the Prince, who was once a repeatable mass, after all I have forgotten that, though it is heavy for me to be assigned to protect and be your companion, but I will remain faithful and do my best in this work."
Prince Shun smiled at the words, at least he was relieved because the girl in front of him did not hold a grudge against him. "Then I will also do my best to do my duty." Said the Prince who instantly made Erdwan's expression turn moody.
"Prince Shun, actually I came here together with King Dylan, he asked me to take you to see him."
"All right.."
The three of them headed straight to the King's special palace to fulfill King Dylan's call. Once there they were immediately greeted by Prince Kenn, the 10th king and queen and also king Dylan himself. The rest looked lonely and there was no farewell at all or the soldiers who would escort them away.
"Prince Shun, you were given a mission to wipe out the people who staged the coup in the kingdom of Arrenthia, members of another royal alliance allied with them and the dark organizations involved in it." Said King Dylan while holding the shoulder of prince Shun then smiling knot.
"Are they scattered and unknown location? If so, how long will it take us to spend them all? Isn't this too heavy for us? it's the same you and the king of Arrenthia just sent him to kill himself!" Tukas Erdwan who felt that he did not accept the heavy duty was given to the Prince who was still 15 years old.
"Relax, you get security guarantees there, after all, a Saint does not seem to die easily even though against hundreds of thousands of people even with you who are his colleagues, your chances of death are very small, I think sacrificing someone or him that person is no more matter than making the security of the people much disturbed."
"For time it may take about 5 to 10 years because you also have to do something else that is quite important and the place is not only in Arrenthia alone." King Dylan's.
"You're crazy" Erdwan was caught off guard by king Dylan's rant that he thought was very unfair.
"King, let me join you." Said Prince Kenn who suddenly opened his mouth to speak. All the people there multiplied his view of Prince Kenn.
"No, you're not allowed!." The Queen of Frost X.
"Not what mother, this also has something to do with our kingdom because their actions the security of our people are very disturbed." Kenn said in a relaxed and calm tone unlike his tense-looking parents.
"How's King? The decision is in your hands, after all, I won't easily die with my elementary magic which is undoubtedly his prowess."
"Yes, of course, it would be unfair to send only a prince of Arrenthia to quell the actions that plague many of those kingdoms, meaning that you can go with them, but your purpose and departure will be kept secret from the masses in other words you will not be escorted by the guards and only use teleportation magic."
Erdwan smiled cynically. "Why did you send us immature enough to accomplish such a heavy task, are you big people so weak?" His quip instantly got a sharp glare from all of them.
"Let's go without complaining, you're weird, we'll be strong enough to eat it we're sent there." Prince Shun who had just been silent now spoke while shaking Erdwan's shoulder which was like it had risen in blood.
The king laughed loudly at their behavior. "Well, Prince Shun and his two friends will leave today first and tomorrow Prince Kenn will follow, if there are important needs such as parting with someone you love... I mean your friend here, I'll give you an hour." King Dylan smiled faintly.
"WHATAAAAA?!!!" Said Prince Shun and Erdwan who were astonished because it was so short of time given to them.
Prince Shun approached the king then whispered with him and king Dylan was just a beard. After that the three of them left the small family of Frost's kingdom.
