Trapped in the Past
EPISODE 42

...HAPPY READING...

It's been 10 years. Athena grows up to be a charming little girl with courage inherited from both her parents. However, the nature of Athena who always lived a luxurious life without experiencing the slightest bit of suffering made her personality become arrogant even not caring about the surrounding things. He only cares about what he wants.

Athera and Regaz, of course, are worried about his daughter's attitude. Because, this power will be held by Athena who will grow up later. They do not want Athens to be a arrogant leader and do not care for its people so, from today, Athera and Regaz have agreed to exile his daughter to mingle with the people, feeling the suffering, the challenges, the happiness of a very simple thing then makes him able to manage the entire region properly after plunging directly into observing the world outside the kingdom.

Ruoxi, just shut up while tightening the book on her hug. This handsome man with exotic skin actually cursed himself not to get married and preferred to learn everything. And after 10 years of struggling with the readings and all his research, Ruoxi was finally given orders by the King directly.

"Ruoxi, are you ready to listen to this?" ask Regaz with a serious look.

Athera, Regaz, Ruoxi as well as Athena had been in the private room by occupying the sofa.

Ruoxi nodded while swallowing her coarse saliva. He did not know what Regaz was going to say. But his mind was guessing something related to the lesson he had given Athena. Maybe he will be scolded for teaching a theory that is not allowed for children of Athenian age, Ruoxi thought.

"Go to the city of Redhell with Athens" Regaz said.

Athena who was sitting on the sofa right beside Ruoxi instantly poked up with sparkling eyes. He had read Ruoxi's books and found information about Redhell. The city of Redhell was so beautiful when Athens read the words that describe the beauty of the city of Redhell. While Ruoxi looked at Athera who seemed to agree so much with Regaz's proposal.

"But, Redhell City is not your territory Your Majesty, what if anyone knows the identity of the Princess?" ask Ruoxi.

"And it's also quite dangerous" Ruoxi continued.

"It's a suitable place to train a would-be ruler. I wish you could keep Athena safe" Regaz said, leaving Ruoxi silent.

Regaz certainly did not need to worry if his daughter he entrusted to Ruoxi. This man was very good at fighting and also since Athena was a toddler, Ruoxi loved Athena as much as her own child so she did not have to worry too much.

Redhell City was a large city that became the border between the human territory and the territory of immortal beings. Redhel City can be entered by immortal beings as well as humans but the immortal beings will not be able to pass through Redhell City to enter the human world, even if they can, then the creature is extraordinary. Vice versa. Redhel City was like a city of peace for mortals and immortal beings when it met, because some of them are good even though there are sometimes some immortal beings who seek trouble with humans because they think humans are the weakest creatures that are not given power like them.

"When can I do this job?" ask Ruoxi.

Athera was reluctant to let go of her daughter but this was all for the good of the future as well as for her daughter. Athera took a breath then exhaled slowly, "Tomorrow."

Athena smiled faintly, hearing this talk. This 10-year-old girl has attitudes and thoughts that are not in accordance with her ordinary child. Of course, it all began when he continued to hear conversations within the government concerning things beyond his reasoning as a child.

"Howdy dear? Are you disappointed with our decision?" athera asked Athena.

Athena shook her head, "I'm happy, wait for me to return with such amazing magic ability."

Regaz and Ahera knitted their brows then looked at Ruoxi with horror gazes. While the one being stared at only shrugged both of his shoulders. "I never told you about the city of Relhell."

Athena got off the couch and walked past her parents waving.

"I'll take a break, see you in the morning, Mother-Father."

Those who noticed Athena's departure immediately snorted involuntarily.

"He really has to go there" Regaz said.

"He inherited your haughty nature!" athera.

Regaz ruffled his waist with eyebrows adrift, a sign of inadmissibility. " Don't blame me! We made it together and it's inherited by you."

"Actually you are both haughty and Athena combined from the haughty nature of the two of you" Ruoxi commented.

Athera clenched both of her hands after ringing her fingers. " Can you repeat your words, Ruoxi?"

Ruoxi shook her head then looked down in fear. "Sorry Queen."

...****...

Today, Athens and Ruoxi have left the kingdom. They traveled a considerable distance to the city of Redhell. Only use horses while carrying the items they need.

While in the kingdom, Regaz and Athera were silent and busy with their respective minds.

"Honey," call Regaz gently.

Athera turned to Regaz with a gaze asking, "Why?"

With a clear face, Regaz rested his head on Athera's shoulders. They had been leaning on the back of the bed since Athena's departure.

"It turns out that the departure of Athens made the kingdom so quiet, yes," Regaz said.

"true."

"So how about we make another child" Regaz said.

Athera smiled cynically, so he remembered a few years ago, where Regaz foolishly invited himself to have children when their relationship was quite bad at that time. And he remembered very well also when his foot kicked Regaz's heirloom.

"Alright," replied Athera with a gentle smile.

Regaz smiled broadly then hugged Athera tightly.

"So when?" Regaz immediately let go of his embrace of Athera. He sat with his body firmly clenched his hands, a sign of impatience.

"How about we do it when the moon is red, I heard that if we do it in the red moon, we will have a son who has tremendous power" Athera said, touching his chin.

Regaz chuckled small. " Do you believe in such things?"

Athera was shaking her lips. " You asked when, right? And that's my answer."

Regaz nodded then hugged Athera so that his wife would not be angry for long, "Alright."

"I want to have a son who is so great that when Athena returns, she will see a sister who will be her protector." Athera smiled as she gently rubbed Regaz's head.

" Now you look like my mother." Regaz put away Athera's hand and kissed his wife's back.
