War And Throne Chapter 23 : Not The Main Cast
Sarah pulled Lake away from the crowd, Lake had no idea what Sarah was doing to her at the moment. The reason behind the girl's treatment was completely incomprehensible to Lake."Sarah, what are you doing?" Lake screeched along the steps. "What do you want from me? Where are you taking me?" Lake blurted out questions. Her face was already filled with a fog of confusion as she stared at Sarah, who looked like she was panicking."Lake, I need your help," Sarah said once she was far enough away from people.Lake and Sarah were now standing face-to-face. Lake blinked her eyes, "Help with what?" she asked.Sarah was silent for a moment, her lips twitching, she seemed hesitant to say something. Lake tried to find her own answer. "Wait a minute, don't tell me that you-" Lake gaped. She looked at Sarah's appearance once more, the girl in front of her was a performer, and now Sarah was pulling her away from Finn and Darren. And that means...Lake froze. "No," she said firmly, accompanied by a

"What do you want, Lake? Name it right now, and I'll see to it that your wish is fulfilled." Sarah looked at Lake earnestly, her words so steady and reliable."I don't think I want anything for now," Lake replied, shaking her head."Ah, I see...""But maybe I'll need your help next time, Sarah. There's no time limit, right?"Sarah chuckled softly as she stroked Lake's shoulder in a gentle motion and said, "Of course, you can contact me anytime if you need anything, and I will make sure that I will be there when you need help.""Thanks, I guess I should get back to where I was.""Yes, go ahead. Thanks again for your service, Lake, I'm really happy that you could participate."Lake just threw a smile at Sarah, then she said goodbye to her friends before starting to leave from backstage. However, before actually walking away, Lake bumped into Tira, the girl who was actually going to perform, but suddenly had to be replaced by Lake because Tira fainted."Hey, you're okay, right? How are y
War And Throne Chapter 25 : Nail Need Help
Darren was returning the stacks of books to the library with Cassie after the training camp lessons were over. But unfortunately, Master Jael didn't give a follow-up lesson on the climbable fireball material. Although most of them were very disappointed, they knew that they couldn't protest, or else the master would get even angrier, which was very unfavorable. They could fall behind on the material."Here are the last three books," Cassie said as she gave the books to Darren, who was climbing the ladder to put the books on the high shelf. Cassie was underneath the young man, passing the stack of books carefully and bit by bit, while Darren was in charge of arranging the books neatly as before.Darren nodded, took the books from Cassie's hand, and then he began to arrange them in such a way that, when he was done, the young man went down the stairs, and Darren joined Cassie at the bottom."It's done, the books are neatly arranged as before." Darren patted his hands together as he look

"I honestly don't know whether to go or not," Darren replied, "I haven't thought much about it, but if you're forcing me to give you an answer now, I'm going to say no.""Why not?""Because I'm not interested, just like you." Darren said quietly, "That's for now, but you never know, I might change my mind, right?"Cassie moved her head up and down, "I know what you mean, I'd support you if you went, I'd definitely support Nail. Yeah, we'll see how it goes." Cassie's eyes looked ahead, "Look, here we are. And oh ....""Why Cassie?""You can see for yourself in front of the palace," Cassie said as she pointed ahead.Darren turned his gaze, and then he was stunned with his lips open, unable to believe what he was seeing.***How could you not be surprised? Both Finn and Lake were currently faced with an enormous meal on the table. Helena prepared the food for Darren's two friends, which honestly seemed quite excessive. Finn and Lake were not big guests. They just wanted to see Darren.La
War And Throne Chapter 27 : Register Yourself
Darren was quite surprised to find Finn and Lake at his house. It was too late in the day to be considered afternoon. Darren's footsteps were stuck in the doorway, his eyes glued to his two best friends."Lake? Finn? You guys here?" Darren asked as he dragged his feet towards them. "Since when did you come?""They've been here since this afternoon," Helena said, suddenly appearing from the kitchen, just as Lake was about to answer Darren's question.Since Helena's words were true, Lake nodded and said, "That's right, we've been here since this afternoon. Me and Finn are waiting for you, Darren.""I'm sorry, I just got back, you guys have been waiting too long. " Darren's voice implied that the young man was sorry.Finn waved a hand and said, "It's not a big deal, your mom prepared a lot of food anyway, we're just happy, our stomachs will be full. So, I don't mind, do you mind, Lake?""Yep!" Lake exclaimed firmly and earnestly, and she smiled so wide and happy. "You look tired, don't y
War And Throne Chapter 28 : Helena's Willpower
Gio returned to see King Edward after being asked to go on an errand. The handsome man met the king, who was currently reading a book in a very large and spacious private library, filled with books lined up on the shelves.King Edward had his face down, looking at the text he was reading, when Gio, the royal advisor, appeared near him. King Edward looked up, closed his book, shifted the chair he was sitting on, then turned his body around.The king saw Gio bending his body before him, ready to receive the information he had assigned to his personal advisor."Gio, so what?" King Edward asked, looking at Gio with a curious look on his face.Gio's lips pressed together for a moment before giving an answer, others would know if the man was thinking of the right sentence to say."Everything is good, Your Majesty, the plan is going smoothly as desired. It's already the third day, and the glass boxes on the steps of the palace are getting more and more.""I see.""That's right, my king, I'm
War And Throne Chapter 29 : He Needs Darren Again
By the sixth day, the paper with the names of those who would be included in King Edward's game was getting more and more in the glass box, it was almost full, just a little more. Tomorrow was the last day, but every day, many people still came to the palace to enter their names. Some came alone and entered their names bravely and confidently, some came represented by their parents, and some even asked to be accompanied by other people (friends, family, cousins, etc.) just like Nail, who asked Darren and Cassie for help that time.As we approached the last few days before registration closed, it was clear that people were very excited, which meant that the game was about to start, and everyone wanted to see it.And here Darren was, right in his yard, he was leading the way, venturing closer to Helena, who was doing her routine of watering the plants so that they wouldn't wilt.Darren was about to make a confession, he had prepared himself. Helena smiled and greeted Darren once he was
War And Throne Chapter 30 : Provisional Player List
It was true what Nail said, the Crimson Country's vast and clean city square was full of people, especially in a certain part, located near the fountain, where a crowd had gathered, right in front of an information board.Darren and Nail were still standing at the entrance to the town square, both of them exchanging glances."That's where the information is posted," Nail said, "The sign lists the provisional names of those who will participate. Let's take a look."Nail waved a hand, instructing Darren to move forward immediately, then join the people at the front."Nail!""Yeah, why?"Darren ran a little to catch up with Nail, who had stopped in front of him. "Nail, I think it's better to wait for the crowd to die down first so you can easily read the writing there, keep looking for your name."Nail's head turned back, staring at the crowd. "Yes, you're right, but I'm already very curious.""Suit yourself, I'm just suggesting that if you want to see it now, so be it." Darren shrugged

Chapter 36 : Where Did Mom Go?
Two days later, as night fell, Darren sat on his not-so-wide bed. The young man bent his knees, a tattered piece of paper in his hands. For the umpteenth time, Darren stared at it, reading the lines on it.Darren let out a long breath along with the cold that pierced his skin. The young man didn't close the window, letting the wind into his room."Tomorrow is the day of the first challenge." Darren muttered, "I don't know what game King Edward will come up with."That's right, that's what the flyer said. Darren had read and listened. It wasn't a serious matter that he had to think about for a long time, but Darren felt that he still had to prepare himself.If he deliberately failed himself during the game, it might attract great suspicion, especially if King Edward realized it. What should he do if that happened? Darren didn't know."I do need to foil myself, but I need to do it carefully so it's not too obvious." Darren straightened his back, his hands already clenched into tight fis

Chapter 35 : Acquaintance
"Darren, are you serious?" The movement of Cassie's hand, which was plucking a blade of grass, stopped when Darren's words floated in the air."I can't be lying, that's the reality of what happened to me," Darren said.Cassie and Nail looked at each other, their faces were almost the same—filled with suspicion, but they were also confused, wondering to themselves how the things Darren said could possibly happen. But, that was the truth. They believed Darren's words.Previously, Darren had told Cassie and Nail about the incident he had experienced—the incident in which he had inevitably had to participate in the game for the seat of a prince. Currently, they are joining the fire clan for the good work of cleaning up their place.The streets were cleared, swept clean, the mud removed, the grass that had grown long was neatly trimmed, and the trash that was scattered about was thrown away. Mutual cooperation will undoubtedly be completed quickly if it is done together like this."What ki

Chapter 34 : Who Is The Person?
"Look, I'm not trying to be accusatory or anything, it's just that anything can happen, right?" Finn looked at Darren with a serious look on his face."And?"Finn licked his dry lips before he finally answered, "It was probably Nail who put your name in that glass box, so you ended up being listed as one of the contenders for the Crimson Prince position." Finn's shoulders shrugged as Darren widened his eyes. "It's just my guess, no one knows how, not even you.""Nail?" Darren squeaked softly, his eyes blinking rapidly. "Why are you accusing him of doing this to me?""Darren ...." Finn let out a long breath. "Like I said before, I'm not accusing Nail at all, it's just my guess.""Nail would never do something like that.""Well, that's up to you. If you believe that, that's your business. I'm just saying that someone can be mean to you even if they're very nice to you. It's not that I'm saying Nail is mean to you, it's just that he might mean well to get you into the game. Okay, anyway,

Chapter 33 : Suddenly Registered
Finn's shouted words had Darren rooted to the spot, he cringed slightly, his lips parted."You can't jump to conclusions like that, I haven't even explained anything yet, okay?" Finn chided loudly, "And please don't cut me off again while I'm talking, you've got it all wrong, Darren.""What do you mean, Finn?" asked Darren, his voice low, almost a whisper. The young man blinked, his gaze not leaving his best friend's face."You're wrong, none of what you said before is true. That's why, you should listen to my explanation first, don't just talk at length like before, especially when it was a mistake."Darren shook his head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about.""No one is hostile, holds a grudge, or someone is trying to cheat me. That doesn't exist, that's bullshit." Finn began to explain, his words clear and lucid.Darren moved his hand, "but earlier you said--""I didn't say anything, you came to your own conclusion," Finn said, this time it was his turn to cut Darren o

Chapter 32 : Anyone Cheating?
"Everyone, listen carefully. Before you go back to your homes, I'm going to share some important information with you all."All the fourth-year students immediately looked to the front, their eyes fixed on Master Jael, who had previously said that class time was over and everyone should get ready to go home. But, now the master wanted to provide additional information."This won't take so long that it will take up your time to go home, so listen up for a moment." Master Jael clapped his hands together once, his facial expression becoming more serious, and after watching his students listen, he cleared his throat softly and then continued. "I just received information from the elders, the elders received information from the kingdom, or more precisely, King Edward himself conveyed the information. Now, I will convey this information to all of you.""What information do you mean, master?" asked Gaby as she raised her hands high, she was indeed an overly curious little girl, her curiosit

Chapter 31 : Darren's Idea
With his body straightened, Finn faced Darren fully. "Seriously, you have an idea, Darren? Please tell me right now." Finn pleaded, high hopes already soaring in his chest."I just thought my idea could be tried," Darren replied, "of course if you agree.""Darren, please tell me right now." Finn urged, "I need to hear that. And you're right, maybe I can try your idea."Darren's head nodded. "So, what if you put your name in that glass box, again? You could try, right?"Instead of Finn responding quickly, Nail spoke first, starting with a flick of his finger. "I agree, you can try that, Finn, after all, registration isn't closed yet, there's still time."Darren chimed in again, "What do you think, Finn?""Can I do that?" asked Finn, doubt crossing his expression."Why not? Who's going to tell you not to? In fact, your name isn't even on the list, so you just put your name back in the box, it's all done, and you'll be listed again." Nail clapped his hands, the grin on his face growing w
