Alan's point of view...I held the wall to stand up as my body was still so weak.Every part of my body was throbbing in pain, I could hardly manage my balance let alone fighting with that tyrant.He took out his dagger and lunged toward me. In just one leap he was standing before me sorting and gritting in anger. There was a murderous aura in his eyes, "How dare you...!" before he could finish his snorting, I forced myself to act, "What were you doing all this time, your senior, the holy priest had sacrificed his life to wake me and I sacrificed my body to kill this monster," I looked at him, if he believed me or not.I heard masculine people have small brains, I didn't buy it before but it seems that it might be true in his case. He hung his dagger down, looking at me with frowned eyes."Y...you...!" he stuttered in utter shock."How could you...! No, you are lying...!" he deduced, I think I have to push him further, "Absurd, do you even know how much strength I had to spend fo
Alan's point of view...I thought that those jumbled paintings are going to help me but even after arranging them, it didn't help.Crab...!I wasted my time for nothing...!I strode further but those paintings were still clinging to my sanity, my instincts are never wrong. No...!There has to be something related to those paintings. But moving back to them didn't help me either, instead, it made it worse for me to stay there.I didn't even notice how, but a trap was turned on and I get stuck again. This time it wasn't any small arrows but huge balls of fire. It didn't give me a second to dodge, one after the other with the speed of bullets. Amazing...!Whoever is the one that set this trap must be appreciated for their work.Truly...!I hit those balls coming toward me with the dagger in my hand, just like how we play cricket. Though it worked, it didn't last long as the size of the ball increased over time.What should I do now? I couldn't use my magic, I don't have a sword at le
Alan's point of view...We brought all the hostages to a safe place near the valley, there were so many young people of all age groups. From kids like Zion to grown-ups of an age group of teens, and also young men of my age, and some were elder than me."They were all poisoned, my lord, but I don't know where the antidote is...!" Hayden hissed in dismay, citizens of this country talk with poison, live with poison, what else could I imagine from this? "Holy priest never trusts me, I was just a pawn to them all these years" he was so sad that he couldn't help these people, I actually liked that he was a good man at heart.Luckily I brought all those medicines from the collection of that old woman."Don't worry, Hayden, help me with this" I threw the pill bottle that I had been carrying on me, it was an allrounder antidote that was prepared by her. I tried it on that old man before and it worked miraculously.I was happy that I carried it and it was helpful now."You got the antidote wi
Alan's point of view...Zion held my hand and ran out towards the alley, to get out of that room.As I was able to see now, I rolled my eyes all over to see the surroundings, It wasn't a prison which I thought it would be, but some kind of weird place that resembles the prison most, with many closed rooms ahead. I could see the wall covered with red and black stains.I wonder if it is blood...! It stinks so badly, I stepped further observing every corner."Do you know what place is this?" I asked looking at Zion, he seems to be familiar with the way. He might be kept here all these days before being taken to that temple.There were several rooms in a row, I opened one of them randomly to see what was inside them."Hey don't open that, you can't see in...!" that little kid actually, warned me."They kill animals and humans here to make poisons and medicines, be aware of poisonous gases" he stepped before me to stop me from opening it."Don't see it, please, I was sick for so many days
Author's point of view...Alan was surprised to find a woman sitting on the throne, that a lady was capable of ruling a vast vicious country. In that era, where there was solid competition among the countries to attain power, no one would guess that a woman can rule a country. That might be the reason why no envoy who visited this country had ever returned safely. They might have concealed this matter deliberately and for doing that they killed many people.Now that Alan saw her sitting on the throne, he must be killed by now, then why was she still keeping him alive?Despite being weak, the God of Wars, Alan was still competent in fighting those trained imperial guards. The Queen feared that she could no more control him so she finally tend to use her most despicable way to control Alan. Poisoning.She cast her magic and there formed a vicious venom fume in between her hands which she forced towards Alan's body without any single hesitation.Alan was hit by the venom attack and l
Alan's point of view...I stretched out my arms yawning and then strolled toward a tree near the palace to take a rest while Louis ordered those secret guards to clear the mess behind.Those poisons that she had been storing were enough for killing a whole kingdom.It has to be destroyed at any cost. It can't be controlled if even one of that formulae goes out. So I ordered to burn the whole palace.That Queen was imprisoned. It was my demand to detain her or Louis was about to show his mercy.She doesn't deserve that, she is not even a human let alone being a woman.I can't tolerate her a minute more, bloody monster.As this kingdom has no better heir, I hereby announced that Hayden will be the reagent to take care of the public. Along with that, I made sure that no one in this whole state will ever use any kind of poison. We had enough of that dreadful game.As I expected, this kingdom has no particularly trained army, except for the limited imperial guards who fought with me earlier
Alan's point of view...All the ministers greeted me outside, but he was alone in the court, it was his style to meet me. But still, I felt uneasy."Long live the king...!" I greeted officially bowing before him."Ahem..." his grunt echoed around the court hall as he cleared his throat."Come here Alan, let me have a good look at you," his words were so weak to hear, I lifted my gaze and peered through the curtain at him, he was not sitting, but was leaning on his throne. I strolled further, clenching the curtain away, to have a look closely, a glucose drip was inserted in his hand.He smiled weakly, but my eyes become blurry.I am not tearing up...!Of course, I won't...!It might be because the air here was so hot, that my eyes pooled up.He was fine a few months back when I visited him, what had happened now?I moved forward, stepping up near him."What happened Grandpa?" I grabbed his hand and his eyes filled pooling up with tears too, "You...!" I couldn't talk more, but he inst
Author's point of view...After a night in his palace, Alan was interrupted by Luois right in the morning."Are you here to annoy me, Louis?" he sniffed in irritation, "I don't dare your highness, I am here to take you to the Imperial College of Royalties" he retorted immediately as we can see a glint of mischief in his answer. A slight smirk spread on his face, just by thinking that his young master who gets irritated by the name of social gatherings, is now going to attend a ball, for his bride selection.Alan just gave a cold look to Louis, who was standing with all his preparations.A Royal attire with the necessary accessories was kept ready for him to get ready."Do I have to go there, Louis?" Alan sniffed irritatingly, this little task given to him was harder than killing several monsters."Your Highness, it is indeed needed, I have to answer to My Lord" Louis retorted respectfully."I wish my father was here" Alan hissed in dismay, his father was out as an envoy to some countr
