Reveal X's Gen

ENG 3

A loud laughter dominated the room from King Guan after reading the letter Argon sent him. Immediately upon learning of this, King Guan ordered several other spies to be able to go to Shiewook Kingdom. One goal; take the main crystal to paralyze the main power of the enemy. Besides, he might take the Night Lotus Flower as a gift for the son who had wanted it so badly since yesterday.

Prior to that, King Guan was furious to hear that the Shiewook Kingdom refused to join his kingdom. Advisor Lio and Prince Axeryeo could do nothing to calm their king's anger. However, this information from Argon made him forget all the anger he had previously expressed.

"Good, Argon. It's not in vain that I sent you there secretly because it's impossible to order royal couriers to spy on them at once," murmured King Guan stroking his thin beard, proud of his subordinates.

"Bodyguard!" called King Guan to one of the guards guarding the front. The guards moved quickly. "Prepare a horse for me. I'm going somewhere. When Axeryeo asks where I'm going, tell him I'll go bring flowers and all the medicines he's asked for. He'll be happy if his dad brings the gifts he wants, remembering some. months later he will have a birthday and prepare to make the appointment as sole crown prince .. "

"Yes, Your Majesty the King." The bodyguard nodded firmly and quickly carried out the orders of the highest person in the Leonword mainland. His feet ran towards the stables in search of the best horse that King Guan could ride.

After what King Guan asked was ready, he immediately went to the place where Argon said that Princess Ryusin's was and stood up. Even though he wasn't sure the princess would be there any time soon. However, based on Argon's information regarding the power of the witch in Princess Ryusin's horse carriage, it is true that there is a power in the main crystal and the power of a witch that is a big threat to him to rule the Shiewook kingdom in the near future.

Meanwhile, Prince Axeryeo within the kingdom had a bad feeling about what his father was doing. He was sure, King Guan did not go to get the Night Lotus Flower and also other herbs that he asked after this afternoon hearing King Sian's refusal about amalgamation made him burst out of anger uncontrollably. He fully understands that rejection is the most unwanted thing, something that is not properly done in order to achieve his goal. And surprisingly, now King Guan suddenly wants to go to bring the flower Prince Axeryeo asked yesterday? Since when did the father suddenly turn soft in that instant? It would take at least a few days and diversion of problems that could make the father change.

A crow sounded from outside. From his bedroom window, he saw the clear sky turning cloudy. Prince Axeryeo had expected, indeed something bad would happen in the near future because of his father. Although it was not good to accuse a king, Prince Axeryeo could still be suspicious.

"Father..." muttered Prince Axeryeo with a worried look towards the sky. "I hope you don't do anything bad to the Shiewook nation. Especially to the people's favorite daughter, Princess Ryusin." The prince's hands became sweaty.

***

"Are you happy, my lady?" The question asked by her maid made Princess Ryusin's nod a little. A smile bloomed like a tulip blooming there.

The tulip garden he was aiming for was so beautiful and the flowers were colorful. The leaves are fresh green, it seems that although no one is taking care of the garden, the plants are growing well without being damaged by insects or other animals. Princess Ryusin's daughter took a few stalks of tulips for her to carry before continuing on to the noble's inn to give some to the innkeeper and put them in her room later.

Princess Ryusin's beauty is so natural and one with nature. The servants and bodyguards alone were amazed by her beauty, it is very fortunate that Prince Javes has a future wife as beautiful as him and of course Princess Ryusin's kind and humble nature is very popular with the Shiewook people. Hardly anyone in the kingdom could hate him. He is too kind, even envious people can't help but dislike him for long. He is so innocent, his very warm nature is able to melt other people who are initially so cold and hate him. In fact, many women have made him a role model. Because of that, Princess Ryusin's nickname was the "Goddess of Greatness" in Shiewook.

After satisfied looking around and carrying some tulips, Princess Ryusin's group continued to where they were going to spend the night. The sky is already amber color, soon the night will come. Before that happened, he had to immediately arrive at the inn because the area he was passing through was a dense forest. Only a few more kilometers in a horse-drawn carriage, then he will soon arrive at the inn.

From afar Argon was still following him in the disguise of a shepherd. Wearing a slightly shabby hood to cover his disguise, Argon was glad he had not been caught. He also brought the stolen sheep and killed the original shepherd near the forest. In this way it would be easy again to tell King Guan that he believed he was on his way here.

"Get ready, princess. You'll be doomed," said Argon with a smirk on his lips under the hood he was wearing. He was still walking slowly on the wagon, being pulled by some bulls, and behind him was the sheep which he was carrying

After using a trick he could use, the guards and servants there suddenly scattered somewhere. They did not clearly feel why their bodies were made to crash and hit the rocks until something caught in the branch of the tallest tree and could not get down from the tree. The body that was moved without them being asked to hit hard until it hurts so much.

While Princess Ryusin was shocked by the incident looking around, she clutched her chest which was constricted by it. His guards and servants asked for help, but he didn't know how to help them. One of the servants asked the daughter to run because they thought that this was someone with her black magic. Had refused, but because of the insistence of her loyal maid who was dying, Princess Ryusin obeyed her servant's words and ran while lifting the bottom of her skirt.

It turned out that behind him he was being chased by a flock of black birds that came in large enough numbers so that he was blocked and could not go anywhere because his position was locked and caught in the middle of them which formed like a hurricane vortex. Then, he was instead led somewhere, which was clearly to a place that was impossible to reach by his inn. He couldn't walk that way, because these birds didn't give him the chance to see the slightest gap in the dark night.

Arriving at the final place, the birds were flying free. There were only him and Argon left. The princess was terrified. Shouts as if useless were voiced, in the end Argon was the one who executed it. No one knew that his first trip to visit his mother's grave ended tragically like this, at the hands of spies of the kingdom's enemies. The tears that escaped were also useless in Argon's eyes, he only laughed when he managed to destroy the precious treasure of the Shiewook Kingdom. The king must be proud of him because the task he carried out was more than expected before.

The sky was also angry, let out a terrible roar. It was cloudy and the temperature dropped drastically at that instant. Argon thought the weather wasn't very good at the time, but apparently... he was wrong. Dewa was angry, too, took part in venting his frustration with Argon's ruthlessness by bringing heavy rain.

On the other hand, Axeryeo knew that indeed something bad had happened that day. Fleeing the kingdom was the right thing without telling his father, he sped up his move to arrive early, following a trail he correctly interpreted in the direction he believed to be the worst place the incident took place.

His brows furrowed. Only focused on the empty and dark area, Argon's bird flew towards its owner. The messenger bird he didn't know about. The father—King Guan—luckily wasn't there yet so Axeryeo was the one who entered the cave first. Dark cave which has cold water droplets. In the middle of this spring why is the water cold there? Not only that, he didn't expect the temperature inside to suddenly be icy cold, there was absolutely no ice there even though.

Then, it was only the sound of crying after he had stepped a few steps into the cave from someone — a woman's voice that might have been very foreign to his ears, but it was a cry of disappointment. Axeryeo immediately ran inside with his feet and turned on the light because the cave was completely dark at the moment.

Axeryeo's jaw hardened, he froze for a moment when seeing the scene in front of him really made him want to cry too. Especially when his gaze collided with Argon, who began to realize because he was too focused on making further strategies by the arrival of the prince of his own kingdom. Together with Princess Ryusin, who was covering part of her body with the remaining clothes that Argon had torn apart.

"Is this the reason why dad laughed out loud earlier when he received letters, I see?" Just to swallow his saliva, Axeryeo couldn't afford it because it was too shocking for him. "How can you guys be this cunning? In fact, when compared to destroying the kingdom you are after, war is better than treacherous. "

Can not stop thinking for Axeryeo, in his kingdom he desperately wanted to become a great prince at least before dying in the curse that was on him descended. However, the damn thing was that King Guan turned out to be this dirty just because a region didn't want to join Leonword. In fact, Leonword's territory is already that wide, if someone doesn't want to join then that's fine, right? After all, Leonword had advanced, one would think that territorial expansion was usually for the sake of bureaucracy and the exchange of their best crops there.

"Princess Ryusin's ....," This time his gaze diverted to the figure. He approached but instead the princess shied away from him, afraid of men after being tainted. "Sorry, I'm sorry for all of this. You can kill me if this is all too frightening and devastating. The stain you get will definitely be hard to get rid of later. Kill me! If it deserves to be an atonement for what she and my father did too. . "

"Prince! You will be the only heir to the throne in the kingdom. How can you give up your life just for a woman who definitely won't sell anymore," Argon argued, not believing that his royal prince would bother giving his life to a princess from a small kingdom who was no longer alive. there was more pride in Argon's eyes.

"You don't even know my secret, Argon. Instead of me living, wouldn't it be much better to die, right? Break even, in fact it should have been time for me to die," said Axeryeo, turning his face to the side. He could not continue after the sound of the horse came. It must be King Guan. "Do I also need to explain why I know of my death? My late mother is the only one who knows other than why I will die so quickly before it is time to take the throne. Because from the start, I was not destined to become king in the Leonword Kingdom someday."

Axeryeo turned around, he turned off the light and walked out to surprise his father, King Guan. He came with a look that could not be defined, only disappointment that enveloped him at this time. Guilt for Princess Ryusin, even though Axeryeo believes that the two kingdoms can become friends if they go through peaceful means rather than having to acquire their territory, which in fact refuses to lead to a major war. If it is like this, not only war will arise, but other things as well.

And slowly Axeryeo's face appeared after the light from outside brightened him. A face that was completely unexpected by the Guan King over there. The face that was already filled with rainwater that had been dripping and attacking him.

"Axer? What are you doing here?"

Axeryeo smiled, thinly. "Greetings, Father-- ah, no. I mean, greetings King Guan. Welcome to see what you have destroyed. I, Axeryeo here come not as a prince or your son, I come as a human who was too late to save someone from your destruction. do it to him. Greetings, I just want to say that a kiss because in fact I will not be able to ascend the throne before the time comes. "

"Prince Axer, what are you talking about? Surely you are just joking, you will definitely ascend the throne. My only heir is you!"

"Forgive me, King Guan. But it was God who said that I would not be able to ascend the throne prematurely. In time, you will have more descendants with other women, but not of fellow royal blood."

"Why?"

"I'm cursed, can't live any longer."
