Episode 27's. Destinies
Xavier's gaze turned to the moustached man who was getting cold sweaty. “Do you auction the land at the orphanage?”
“B-true, Your Highness.”
“Your Majesty, what brought you here?” audrey asked as she wrapped her hand around Xavier's shoulder. 'Darkening, eh. I feel like I'm being shrouded in caterpillars.'
'What's wrong with this girl? Was he struck by lightning until his brain was empty?' inner Xavier. “Yes, I'm here for observation. Do you want to buy that land?”
“Iya, I want to buy it for some important things.”
Gina was silent as she watched the interaction of the two, she was even surprised when Audrey wrapped her hand around Xavier's arm. 'Gosh, since when is Miss so sticky with Her Majesty??'
“Y-His Highness?”
“Khem, what is the price of the land?” ask Xavier.
“U-for this Miss, I will give it for free,” said the mustache man. 'If only for that land, it's better I give it than I deal with the empire.'
“Ah, really? Wouldn't you lose a lot if you just gave the land away for free, what if I paid for it at that price?”
“No Lady! A-assume I donated the land to the children in the orphanage.”
Audrey smiling. “Alright if that is indeed the wish of Master, I will wait for you in the parlor. Come on, Your Highness.” Audrey pulls Xavier's hand.
After the door closed, he instantly moved away from the man while shuddering in horror. “I was like a caterpillar, huh. horrible,” Audrey muttered while speeding up her pace.

“Wah, beautiful sister came here?”
“Iya, Rose. Where are aunt and uncle? Sister wants to meet with them.” Audrey squatted down and rubbed Rose's hair.
“Uncle is not there, if aunt is going to market to buy something.”
“Ke market?”
“Wah, handsome brother!”
“Kakak not here again.”
“Sister, sister!”
Audrey and Rose turned to the origin of the voice, her forehead slightly wrinkled as she looked at who was now swarmed by the orphanage children.
“Wah, handsome brother here!” Rose with a happy face ran towards the children who were crowding, Audrey stood up and walked towards them.
“Why can you be here?”
“I should have asked, why are you here? Do you know these orphanage kids?” xavier asked with a flat face, Audrey clucked.
“Everything, you go inside. Brother wants to talk to him.”
The children of the home immediately obeyed Audrey's words, they walked in while chatting and joking with laughter.
“Xavier, why are you here?”
“What's the deal with you? I just want to meet the kids,” Xavier said indifferently, Audrey sighed softly.
“Then, go inside. I'll go.” Audrey walked away, but her steps immediately came to a halt as Xavier withdrew his hand. “What's up?”
“Meet me at the park later tonight, there's something I want to talk about.”
Audrey nodded lazily, she let go of Xavier's grasp and walked away. 'Huh, what a hassle. Let me tell uncle and aunt later.'

“Nona, where do you want to go these nights?” gina asked as she watched Audrey who was wearing a mask and a long robe.
“I'll be out for a while, you disguise yourself as me and help me not to get caught.”
“This is very important, Gina. I need to see someone.” Audrey covered her face with a black cloak hood.
“Does Miss want to see Her Royal Highness Crown Prince?” gina asked as she covered her mouth with both hands, Audrey glanced at her lazily.
“Don't make it up, my business this time is more important than that mad man. Remember to disguise yourself as me and don't let anyone in, I go.” Audrey walked towards the balcony and jumped down, Gina who saw it was lying on the bed and covering herself with a blanket.
'Hopefully Miss isn't too long, I can't possibly disguise myself as her for very long.'
ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ
“Audrey, you've come,” said Xavier who turned his back on the robed girl.
“This is me, Your Majesty.”
Xavier glanced back, Chelsea opened the hood of the robe and stepped towards Xavier.
“Why did you get here? And how do you know I'm here?”
Chelsea sit next to Xavier. “I want to say important things.”
“Hem, about what?”
“Your Majesty, I want to ask you one thing.”
The words from Chelsea made Xavier turn towards him with a frown. “What request.”
Chelsea took a breath. “I want you to. kill me.”.
“What?? Are you crazy!?”
Chelsea nodded slowly. “I beg you, Your Majesty. Finish me off before I finish everyone off.”
“What do you mean, Chelsea?? Why do you want to die so badly?” xavier asked, clutching Chelsea's shoulders, the girl threw away her face. He did not want to look at the man in front of him.
“Your Majesty, please. finish me off, I don't want to kill everyone.”
“Jawab my question first! Why do you want me to kill you so badly??”
“Because, because.” Chelsea's tears just flowed. “Because in me there are monsters, monsters that can kill everyone and take over the world.”
“What?” Xavier took off the clutches of his hands, he looked at Chelsea with a frown.
“Yes, Your Grace. Inside me was a monster, a terrifying monster. Do you remember when the tiger stabbed me in the stomach?” Chelsea removed her mask and wiped away the tears.
“Ya, I remember.”
Chelsea smiled wryly. “He was there, the monster kept my soul alive. If there wasn't him, I would have been dead by then. What Your Majesty knows, self-medicating is more difficult than treating others.”
“Why, why does that monster protect your soul?” xavier asked curiously at once and a little pity.
Chelsea looked at him with an indescribable look, she smiled faintly. “Because before he took over my body, my soul cannot die. Otherwise, he will not be able to control my body completely and he will be destroyed because he lost his place to live.”
“How can I believe your words? After all, it would have been able to get rid of that monster without killing you. Kan?”
Chelsea nodded slowly. “There is no way, Your Majesty. I did it all, but it was free. In fact, the monster was expanding and almost took control of all my soul. That's why, kill me. There is no time to think, Your Majesty. Please kill me now or that monster will finish me off and all of you.”
“But-” Xavier's remarks instantly came to a halt as Chelsea pulled out a dagger with an elaborate engraving on the handle of a knife, Chelsea handed the dagger to Xavier.
“Jwngan worried, Your Majesty. If you kill me with this dagger, then the monster will die. I've smeared the tip of the dagger with a deadly poison, so just scratch it a little bit and everything will be done.”
“Chelsea, you-”
“Please help me, I cannot finish myself off. Only you can, Your Majesty. Your destiny is to finish off all demons and become the next emperor, then finish me off before I finish you off.”
