"My Lord, please have m-mercy on m... Ahhh!"A blood-curdling scream left the wounded man's mouth as the masked man suddenly stood on his fingers. Blood oozed of out the victim's mouth and his clothes were soaked in blood, he could barely talk."I told you, didn't I?""M-my... L-l..." The wounded man cried out barely moving on the ground, the other man smirked at him and then he leaned down. Grabbing the wounded man's hair tightly, the masked man questioned him in a deadly tone of voice, "Where is he? Why can't I feel it anymore?""My L-lord, I... don't... k... Ahhhh!" The man cried more painfully this time as the masked man kicked him on the abdomen."You had only one task, it was to watch over the crystal but you couldn't even do that. The crystal is gone so is the bearer."Upon the mentioning of the word 'bearer', the wounded man's eyes filled with full of fear. His body trembled and he didn't dare look down."Since the bearer is gone now..." As the masked man voiced so, the wounde
Idris walked some inches away from Lia, keeping a shocked expression on his face. With a furious look on his face, Crypto hurried towards them. Surprisingly, Lia stood in front of him like a shield while she stared right at Crypto with determined eyes."I asked what were you two doing." Crypto asked again, this time sounding a little impatient. His loud voice and questioning look got even the brave Lia a little scared.Taking a deep breath, she looked at Idris for minute and then she cleared her throat. "I'm sure you saw what were we doing, do you have to ask us about it? Mr. Beaufort."Idris was all focused on their conversation but as she uttered those two words 'Mr. Beaufort' he felt somewhat furious."Since I came here, I have been looking for you. And you were hiding here with him? Are you really going to behave this way now?""I never told you to look for me, it's you who always insisted on doing so. And whoever I am with has got nothing to do with you." Though a little scared,
"Bring her to me. I want her to serve me today." Throwing another bottle of drink on the floor, Crypto grabbed onto the next one. He shook it off and scoffed, "So, you guys brought me the less expensive drink now? Huh!"Crypto pulled himself together, he somehow managed to stand up on his feet and then he walked towards the rack where many books were kept. "What do you guys take me for? Huh! Am I some poor man that you brought me this poor liquor?" Saying so, he pulled two books from the rack and threw them on the other person present in the room."My Lord, please don't do this. We really brought you the most expensive one. We... Ahhh!"The man touched his head, seeing how blood was oozing out of his wound he fearfully looked at Crypto who remained unaffected.In every illegal places in the capital, the staffs knew Crypto very well. Since he was their one of the top customers. Crypto picked up two more books, he furiously stared at the man and added, "I will give you one last time. B
"This voice...""Why is everyone gathered here? Princess? And Mr. Idris? You too." Elijah put on his glasses and as he noticed Idris standing at his daughter's opposite Elijah walked to them."It's late at night, since you two are here I guess something happened. What's wrong?"Idris kept his fists clenched, if it was only Talia he was sure he could deal with the accusations of hers but Elijah was a lot more difficult case. He couldn't figure out what he could do.Seeing how they both were silent, Elijah looked at the maids. "If you both keep quiet, I will have to ask the maids.""Father, Mr. Idris has... he has... tried to dishonor me." Talia cried out, sadly looking at her father.And Idris kept his fists clenched behind his back when his head was bowed, never did he ever feel so humiliated in his life. "What? What are you saying?""Yes, father. I am sorry, I know you trust him and all but I can't keep it hidden for long . He..." Talia once again started crying, all the maids inclu
"Sir, our men saw Crypto Beaufort was taken back to the palace forcibly by Kolen, the main guard of Duke Adrek." A masked man informed Idris.Hearing the piece of information, Idris put down his sword. "Continue.""Duke Adrek heard all the rumours about his son, he is not the one to let such things off the hook. Right now, he must be very angry at his son. It's just like what we expected, Sir." The informer added, his voice sounding so cheerful.Idris let out a soft chuckle as he settled on the chair. "You think so?""Uhmm, yes. Why? Sir, do you think he might go as extreme as punishing his son? Maybe he will take some serious steps this time.""Punish? Haha." Chuckling again, Idris opened a book. The informer couldn't understand the reason behind him laughing, he uttered curiously, "Sir...""Just because he was taken forcibly by the guard, it doesn't mean he will get beaten up the same way.""Ehh? But our men s...""Liam.""Yes, sir.""Sometimes what we see is not the exact truth, th
* The forest of Lorenco *Standing on the top of the mountain, Idris looked at the far distance with a sharp gaze. As the sunlight came out of the hiding, the forest looked so illuminated but then again, it was the same.Idris let out a sigh of relief as he turned off the blue colored screen. Clenching his fists, he closed his eyes and then headed towards the entrance.[Dear player, do you want to enter the forest of Lorenco?]'What is this?'Sling! Narrowing his eyebrows, Idris took a step forward but then again, he felt a sudden electricity touching him. He walked some inches away, in utter disbelief he looked in front of him as he noticed an invisible wall. Idris looked up with his head held high, unlike earlier he could feel the heaviness in his surroundings."This is... " Taking a deep breath, he walked forward. Surprisingly, he just walked through the wall and even though he could feel it he was not hurt at all. "... the entrance of the forest of..."[Welcome player to the fore
"Mr. Idris, I know you are mad at me and you have every right to be angry. But I am really sincere, I..." Lia was crying against his chest when suddenly Idris grabbed her arms. He pushed her away and walked away from her."Mr. Idris.""Please stop crying. And also, please go back. Miss Alpin." Idris made it clear to her, he sounded so headstrong yet not unreasonable. Wiping off her tears, Lia strolled towards the door. "Mr. Idris, I really...""I know what do you want to say and I know it as well that you are sincere but Miss Alpin..." Idris planned to keep a serious face while he would talk to her but now, he couldn't do so. As soon as he saw how sad she looked, his heart softened. Clearing his throat he turned away from her, "You can rest assured that I am not saying this all because I am angry at you. I am really not mad at you, but I want your good and that's why I'm requesting you to go back.""But I don't want to. Mr. Idris, I want to talk to you about a lot of things, I... I w
"... a small portion of spring onion as well." The man added, after briefly explaining everything to Idris."How about sweets?""Ohh, the sweets will be transported back tomorrow morning." The man replied and Idris nodded his head. "Looks like, this is the perfect time. Go with our plan after the sweets gets transported back.""Yes, my Lord."Living in the Windsor House, Idris was under watch as if. Though it was never Archie or the owner of the place, some other people were waiting to slash his neck at his one mistake. When Idris met with his men, he talked with them in their secret language that anyone wouldn't be able to understand the real meaning of."It's him, after what he did to our miss... how can he just walk like nothing happened? How shameless!"When Idris was walking with one of his men, suddenly some maids voices hit his ears. "Yeah, an ordinary person wanting to eat the swan. The heck! I thought he was a kind man, but never thought he could be this disgusting and twist
