Become The 6TH Heaven Lord Demon With System
Prince Keiji's Journey to the Forest of Shadow
For a month now the Hanbei emperor had been in pain which kept him in his room. He had complaints of dizziness, sometimes nosebleeds, or his breathing felt heavy and tight.
And all this time the palace healer only gave his own concoction potion to treat the Hanbei emperor. But this time some medicinal plants supplies of the palace healer apparently have been exhausted.
And this time apparently Kenshin, the Dazai guidance system began to give a mission to Dazai. A mission that is quite testing adrenaline, because to get some medicinal plants is not easy.
[The mission will restart soon, Mr. Dazai. The mission this time was to search for medicinal plants in the shadow forest. Look for ahitaba and kempo plants for the treatment of Hanbei emperor Fujiwara. ]
While Prince Keiji was relaxing and looking at the soldiers who were training with their arrows, suddenly the sound began to come from Kenshin, the guide of the system.
"Shadow forest?" prince Keiji muttered softly.
[It's true. Mr. Dazai should be able to bring the medicinal plant back to the palace before dawn tomorrow, before the sun shows its light. If until Mr. Dazai fails to complete the mission this time, then it is not only the master who will get the penalty. But the Hanbei emperor would not be helped either. ]
Kenshin said again.
"That shadowy forest isn't the famous forest so haunted in the future? Is it in Muromachi's time that the forest will also look haunted, Kenshin?" asked Prince Keiji who had never visited the forest at all.
[It is certain that the shadow forest is still so beautiful as the forest in general, Mr. Dazai. ]
"Hc. Yes, yes too. The creepy story happened because of some dark events in the past, right? The forest should not be scary at this time. All righty!! I will soon go to the forest in search of ashitaba and kempo medicinal plants." muttered the Keiji prince began to waddle in search of warlord Masamune to accompany him to go to the shadow forest.
But just walking a few steps, Prince Keiji stopped his footsteps and cursed himself.
You fool, Dazai!! You are the prince who reigns supreme in this region!! Why did you take the trouble to find the warlord Masamune?! Though you just have to ask one of the servants or soldiers to find him! Cih ...
Inner Dazai growled at himself.
"Go and find Masamune!! Get him to face me right now!" tell Prince Keiji in a very firm voice while staring intently at one of the palace guards who happened to be in front of him.
"Okay, Prince Keiji!" the servant of the palace was full of respect and soon passed to carry out the orders of the prince.
After a while of waiting the warlord Masamune began to come to face the prince Keiji.
"Masamune-sama!! I'm going to the shadow forest!! And you must escort me with some royal soldiers!! We must find that medicinal plant and must return to the palace before dawn!!" prince Keiji said.
"My husband! Why should you go? Just order some soldiers to search for the medicinal plant .." Now the empress Shiina who had come looked so objected when her husband was about to go to the forest.
"Shiena. I have to do it myself. And I must immediately obtain those medicinal herbs for the Hanbei emperor. You are fine here and take care of our little prince Yan .." said Prince Keiji warmly and gently rubbed the tiny baby that was being held by Empress Shiina.
"alright. But be careful and come back soon .." said empress Shiina who still looks so heavy to let go of her husband.
"Hc. Sure was! I'll be right back! Don't worry!" replied Prince Keiji warmly.
"Prince ..The shadow forest is a forest full of illusions. I was very worried ..." Now a woman with a big belly had also started to approach Prince Keiji.
"Kikiyo! I have sword wields! Any illusion and magic will not be able to block my steps! I'll be right back! So don't worry ... we'll soon see a beautiful little princess will complete the happiness of this palace." prince Keiji replied trying to convince his third wife and gently rubbed Kikiyo's already big belly.
Kikiyo could not speak anymore. It felt like he was eager to refute it, but it was all impossible, because he had to always obey whatever the prince had already decided.
"Prince Keiji ..." suddenly there began to be a soft and maternal voice. "While it is hard enough for us to let go of you, we will always believe in you. Hurry back and get together with us back .." added princess Boa already with a pair of beautiful beads that began to glaze over.
Yeap. Although they all had to obey and release Prince Keiji to go to the shadow forest, they could not lie to their little hearts. If in fact the three women were certainly very worried about Prince Keiji. Especially in that time, rumors have circulated if there is a guardian dragon in the shadow forest that is very rarely touched by humans.
Inevitably now they must let go of the departure of Prince Keiji with a spacious heart. And they could only pray and hope that Prince Keiji would be fine and be able to return safely and bring the medicinal plants.
...⚜⚜⚜...
A long journey now they have traveled together. Munhkin takes approximately 4 hours to 5 hours if taken by horse riding.
Now in front of them began to look a forest that was so big and looked so dark. The atmosphere of mystical and shuddering horror was suddenly felt by Dazai who was very rare to enter a forest in his time.
Even the aura of this forest is very different from the forest that is usually always used to hunt with the soldiers and when with Azai.
If the forest is usually very identical to the green color of the leaves of the tree, this does not apply to this shadow forest. Because this forest is famous for its dark atmosphere that is gripping because the area is rarely exposed to sunlight.
By being filled by the many towering pine trees in it, anyone who came would be instantly goosebumps by the dark atmosphere that was so cold and gripping.
Dazai who was in the front row now began to stop his horse and looked so hesitant to continue his journey back. Because this forest really looks so gripping!!
