IT MR HURTS. COMMANDER!!
STEPHANUS IS CONSCIOUS

The sharp net of wrinkles slowly crept up the ground.

He scrunched his eyes feeling glare with the sunlight that pierced through the curtain curtain

after fully opening his eyes, he glanced back and forth. The net swept through the entire room

He frowned feeling alien to this atmosphere.

Wants to straighten up, but he feels his body heavy, stiff can not be moved.

Kreett

"Your Majesty!!!!!! You're sober?" Said Luke, who arrived at the room where Stephanus was being treated in his house

Stephanus frowned staring fixedly at this stern face. He was no stranger to this face

He scanned all the curves of Luke's face and he recalled, this man was the commander of the former empire.

"Don't move much Your Majesty, I'll call the healer first" Luke said excitedly

"Tu.wait" said Stephanus who was barely heard

"What's up, Your Majesty?" luke asked looking at this firm wrinkled face

"In.where is this?" ask Stephanus

"This is in my house, Your Majesty, I will explain everything later" said Luke running out of the room where the stephanus was treated

"His Majesty's state is beginning to recover Sir, Your Majesty is also starting to feel the stimulation around. His vision and speech skills will become clearer over time. Take it easy" said the doctor explaining the situation

"honey, we have to tell this to stephano, right?" ask Alena Luke's wife

"Yes, but it would be dangerous to send a letter there dear, Your Majesty's condition should we keep it a secret at least until Your Majesty fully recovered" said Lukas

"then how do we tell stephano?"

"We're gonna send Bastian. He's still working in the palace as a temporary commander isn't he?" ask Luke to his wife

"ah yes dear Bastian, he is the eye of our son, Alfonso" said Alena assured

"Well, we'll send Bastian a dinner invitation letter" Lukas said

"Ekhemm Your Majesty, do you hear me?" luke asked beside Stephanus' bed

"What.what were you me.. said stephano?" stephanus asked, hoping that the stephano they were talking about was stephano his proud son

"Yes His Majesty. Your son stephano. He's still alive. Prince Stephano has become King of X kingdom now. Your kingdom is very advanced in the hands of His Holiness Stephano, Your Majesty" explained Luke

"Ba..how can you?" ask Stephanus

"i will explain later when the Physician has examined His Majesty"

Reading the dinner invitation letter he received, Bastian frowned in surprise.

He has his usual visitation schedule and this is not the day of his visit.

He was convinced that this was not just an ordinary dinner. There must be something.

"Is this about Commander Alfonso again?, aren't they in His Highness Hector's favorite place right now?" thought Bastian.

Without thinking, he immediately finished training his soldiers, and prepared to go to Luke's residence.

tock.tok.

Bastian knocks on the door of Luke's house upon his arrival.

Checkered

Alena opened the door and immediately let Bastian in.

"What did aunt call me? are uncle and aunt okay?" ask Bastian who is already familiar with Alfonso's family

"Let's see this" said Alena guided Bastian's steps

DEGGS

The eyeballs were firm but also had a gentle gaze it was very exactly like stephano

Bastian immediately knelt down to humble himself to the aura of power that Stephanus unleashed

"Greetings Your Majesty. I am happy to hear your health" said Bastian Patuh.

"You're the Bastian who saved me, aren't you? Thank you son" said Stephanus slowly

"I've heard everything from Luke, everything from the beginning of the attack, his protection of the stephano who sacrificed his own son, to Luke's son who was instrumental in saving me, Bastian, and his protection of the stephano who sacrificed his own son, can you bring stephano and Alfonso here? I wanted to hug my son and bow down to apologize to Alfonso" said Stephanus, who was deeply guilty of hearing Luke's words.

I can't imagine Alfonso suffering so much.

"Your Majesty. I will pick up His Holiness Stephano and Alfonso in secret" Bastian said, bowing his feet back to leave the residence

Stephanus breathed. Want to continue the story back

"Your Majesty, there's one thing you should know, I'll continue my story

The one married to my son Alfonso is. emm is your daughter Sophia" Luke said to his voice.

"WHAT?? Ja.so.. My two children are alive? Call Bastian Lukas, say pick up my daughter too" Stephanus said excitedly

"Sorry Your Majesty, your daughter is currently missing. Alfonso is looking for his wife every day" Lukas said

"How come? whatchu mean? tell me about Luke" said Stephanus in panic

"I can't tell you about Alfonso and Princess Sophia His Majesty's relationship, Only Alfonso has the right to say everything. I have no right to it forgive me" Lukas said bowed

"You're right Commander, well thank you for taking care of my two children. I do not know how to thank you" said Stephanus, who did not know the condition of his daughter and what Alfonso did to his own daughter.

"Your Majesty, I beg of you no matter what happens, whatever Your Majesty hears, please do not separate Princess Sophia from Alfonso. They have a difficult life Your Majesty" said Luke afraid that if Stephanus heard Alfonso's treatment to his daughter, then Sophia would be taken from Alfonso.

It was enough that he had witnessed the misery of his own son's life all this time.

Alfonso's life was Sophia, he could not imagine if when Sophia was found, Sophia again separated with her son

"What do you mean Luke? did something happen?" stephanus asked, reading Luke's countenance

"There is something Your Majesty, but let Alfonso explain it later" said Luke felt he did not have the right to first convey everything.

"Yesine!!!! Where're you?"

"Yesin!!!"

From morning Filips found no master anywhere in the search area

He panicked. It was getting dark, but his master was nowhere to be seen.

Filips stopped his horse where he was and Alfonso began to split up

"Sir, did the handsome Master come out of the forest? Is he back at the hill house?" ask Hera the little girl

"It is impossible for you to leave without any clear reason, but let's see if you are still in the hill house or not" Filips said

Arriving at the shelter, everything was empty. Even the commander's horse isn't here either

they're walking the place.

But there's no Alfonso inside.

Netra Filips accidentally saw a book under the bed as the filips walked through the room

Filips took and

Whuussss

Filips blew the dust that stuck thickly on top of the book.

Filips read sheet of sheet. His lips smiled faintly reading this.

This is a record of the crimes and corruption of the empress and her greedy general

"It will be easy to bring down the kingdom with this" Filips said cheerfully

"All right, let's go find the Master"
