Episode 53's. Iron bars

“Chelsea, don't go with him! We can definitely beat them!”

Audrey smiling. “No one will be able to finish off the demon king, Mia. I'll be back just fine.”

“But.”

“Come we go!” Raymond clasped Audrey's hand and pulled her away, the girl glanced back as she followed Raymond.

'No problem, I can definitely finish him myself! I will try not to make anyone a victim of me!'

ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ

Raymond pushed Audrey into the cold cell and locked her away. “If you try to escape again, you will know the consequences!” his hisses, he walked away haughtily.

Audrey sighed softly. “I won't run away before killing you, after that. I'll take care of Veronika and Bella.” He massaged his temples dizzy. “Revenge the three people was really dizzying.”

A cat-eared woman walked towards Audrey's cell with a tray in her hand, she opened the cell and placed a tray filled with food in front of Audrey. “Nona, eat this. I will.. attempt to help Miss escape from Raja.”

Audrey blinked with a puzzled face, she tilted her head to the side. “Why would you help me and betray your own king?”

The woman looked down. “Actually, my family was killed by His Majesty the King and I was brought here forcibly to serve him and his other family.”

“Other price?” Audrey held her chin thinking, she looked at the Woman. “Who is his family?”

“If not mistaken, the King has a younger brother whom he cares about. His name is Davide.”

“Davide,” murmured Audrey, she then smiled at the Woman. “Em, I understand. Thank you for giving me food and talking to me.” Audrey saw the surroundings. “Better you quickly go or the soldiers will realize your presence here.”

The woman nodded, she stood up and walked away. The woman looked at Audrey briefly before locking the cell.

After the woman's departure, Audrey leaned against the iron cell and hugged both her knees. 'It's troubling, but Davide should be very stupid and also very innocent though scary when angry. If I can use it to get me out of here, but that's impossible, I'm not sure he's going to a filthy, cold dungeon. He tapped his chin thinking. 'How do I lure him here without suspecting anyone?'

For almost hours Audrey thought, she still hasn't gotten a good idea. Audrey looked up at the tall and small windows that were in each cell.

Suddenly, the sound of cells being opened. Audrey looked up, her eyes round when she saw who opened her cell. Audrey stood up immediately. “Y-his Highness!” audrey said in surprise, she lowered her head with eyes glancing the other way. 'Why did Davide suddenly come for no reason?'

The handsome man with the crown on his head walked towards Audrey, he raised the girl's chin with his index finger. The girl kept turning her head in the other direction and did not want to see the face of the man in front of her. “Hm, so you're Laura.”

Audrey turned her head towards Davide, she immediately took a few steps back and sat down. “Y-His Highness.k-why can you be here?”

“Nothing, I just want to see the person that Big Brother meant and successfully control the ferocious white tiger of his pet.”

“M-sorry, Your Grace. I never intended to do that,” Audrey said with a guilty and innocent face, she kept her head down as if not daring to stare at the man in front of her. 'Thicken it! If not. huh, calm down. Relax, you're used to pretending to be innocent. So your acting should be perfect this time.'

Davide stepped towards her but Audrey also did not remain silent, the girl also stepped back until her back touched the wall. “Are you that scared of me?”

“Do not fear.” Davide lifted Audrey's chin. “I won't hurt you like my brother.”

“Sorry, Your Grace. I don't mean to offend you, I-I'm just afraid you'll hurt me like His Majesty the King,” Audrey said with a sad pretentious face, She raised her hand and brushed Davide's hand away slowly. Accidentally, the bruise on his hand was seen by the man.

“What happened to your hand?” ask Davide while holding Audrey's hand.

“A-I'm fine, Your Highness.” Audrey pulled out her hand and covered the bruise. 'It was an accidental bruise when I hit a cell, but at least. It's like torture, right?'

“What did my brother do?”

Audrey shook her head quickly. “T-no, Your Grace. I-it's my fault that wasn't careful.”

“Your Majesty, why are you here?”

Davide glanced back. “I should have asked, why are you here?”

The soldiers glanced at each other. “We were ordered by His Majesty the king to bring Miss Laura to face His Majesty the King.”

“Bring ya? Then what are the whips and wood for you guys?” davide asked with cold eyes, The soldiers immediately looked down with trembling bodies. “Honest me or you guys will be out!”

“K-we were actually sent here to torture Miss Laura.”

Davide was grieving, he glanced at Audrey who was looking down with a trembling body. The man clasped Audrey's hand and made the girl look up, tears clearly flowing down her cheeks. “I'll protect you, let's get out of here.”

“But Your Majesty, Your Majesty the King will be very angry if you know you let me out without his permission,” Audrey said in a trembling voice.

“Don't worry, brother won't scold me and he won't bother you as long as you keep on with me.” Davide pulled Audrey out of the cell, the soldiers instantly gave way.

Audrey smiled so thinly that she could not be seen if she was not carefully observed. 'Good, he's in a trap! I just need to add herbs to add flavor. Well, even though I didn't expect the two of them to arrive at a very opportune moment.'

“Your Highness,” call Audrey hesitant, Davide glances at her at a glance. “What Your Majesty.. will help me? Either way, you are the King's Majesty's sister. I'm afraid, Your Majesty the King will finish me off when you're not around.”

“Don't worry, Brother won't hurt you when I'm alive. I promise you about that.”

“Thank you, Your Honor,” great-grandson Audrey with a guilty face. 'Sorry, Davide. But only you can be my pawn here, even though you might get a grudge. But I will still do it!'

ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ

“Sit here, I'll ask the waiter to give you a new dress.”

Audrey nodded obediently, Davide walked out and closed the door. The girl immediately heaved a sigh of relief, she leaned on the back of the chair with a gaze directed towards the window. 'I could have run away now, but if I had done that. It's likely that Raymond will again attack the academy and again try to seize the magic tree, but I'm not sure he'll go after that tree after getting me. He could have asked to recover his magic power and become the strongest, but he took me away instead. It was very strange and disturbing.'
