Chapter 25
It's early in the morning, And we all are standing in our positions while holding our swords.
Max who is playing with his sword for a while gets irritated," So where is these monsters that they talk about?
Sena who is also standing side by side with Max on her position," What if the news Your Majesty got is Fake?"
Dion who comes closer to Max and Sena," If that's the case then why would they do that? I mean such an obvious lie? Who could be possibly behind this all?"
Smirks," Isn't it obvious? A spy, If only the news turned out to be fake. It's not surprising to me since there are many times it happened." Lucas who was walking around the front line army.
I was listening to them all, And honestly I find it boring since there were no monsters, No enemies were showing up. All I could think of was the treasure behind the monsters hunt.
"I don't doubt Lucas words, It looks like there is spy in the empire, More likely that person is in knights squad. But there is no doubt into the fact that monsters will show up? What's that person motive?"
I was lost in thoughts until I noticed Lucas staring at me," What happened? Why are you looking at me?"
Lucas starts walking towards Fena....
"I am looking at you who is thinking so hard right now, No matter how much you think? You can't get the answer since we don't know what's happening inside the empire because of the fact that we are here."
"Lucas, If monsters shows up here then understand that, That person will not make a move for quite a long time, Only if he were to be in knights squad."
"Thought so! So, What do you want to do? Make a move or Just go with flow?"
"Nah! We aren't going to do anything because that's old man work, He is still Grand duke. He will be the one to call the main decision."
"Fena! You sure have grown up, Now that I see. Seeing you serious doesn't feel like it's you. As if someone asked you to act like that."
When I heard those words from Lucas. I felt relieved somehow, As if he is the only one who sees me clearly despite the things I do or say.
"Lucas, you too are grown up a lot, You are so tall that I can hardly reach you. Even when I stand on my toes, I still can't reach you."
"See! Right now I am standing side by side with you, My head hardly reached your shoulder."
"Of course I did grow up, Who do you think I am? And for your kind information, I'm still growing up in height."
"Ehhhh! Just how much taller you want yourself?"
"To the point where I can look down on other boys who have same hair color as me."
As I was staring at him, Unconsciously got closer to him while raising my hand and holding his black smooth long hair on the right side of his face that reaches his neck but a little above from shoulders in my right hand while leaning closer.
"But other boys doesn't have same eyes color as you, Except your little brother. Lucas, You are becoming hotter day by day. I really like your hair, To the point where I just want to keep patting it."
Lucas stands there paused with his cheeks flushed red and pushes Fena hand away," You, What are you doing? Getting suddenly so close and saying such things with a straight face. Don't you have any shame?"
"Hmm! I am complimenting you. Is there any need of shame in complimenting someone?"
'He is shy right now the way his face is flushed, He, he…'
Monsters are showing up...
"Let's go! Shall we?"
***
Max who was falling down here to there, " I can't do this anymore. My body isn't helping me to stand up."
"Lucas you carry me, Since I am going to be your emperor soon, And you will be my servant."
Lucas who was standing there with an absurd look in his eyes," It's nice to see you have such big dreams of me serving you as your servant. Fear the fact I might commit treason against you."
Max who wasn't able to stand up, Gets up and starts running towards Lucas," You jerk! You only have this kind of words. Just say the truth you were planning this from the start. Do you hate me to the point to kill me?"
"Stop your drama, It's cringe and let go of me."
Lucas free himself from Max and starts walking ahead while ignoring Max...
Sena who was passing by the both of them, Spots Max and decides to talk with him.
"How pathetic Max? You are crawling on the ground just after knocking out some monsters? Can you be more pathetic than this? You are lowering the name of the crown prince position. Step down from it and gave it to someone else."
Max who is lying on the ground gets up from it in a pissed mood and looks at Sena with a cold gaze, "So you wanna say, You want this position? Should I step down and gave it to you?"
"Oh my! Are you going to give it to me? If I say so to you! Right!"
Sena and Max who grabbed each other from collar while putting smiles on their pissed expression faces.
"You bi$h! You sure like to piss me off, Otherwise your day doesn't start and end until you piss me off."
"Yeah! I can't have fun the whole day until I don't insult you and remind you your place. What do you even have in first place that you are so proud of? Isn't everything that you own is His Majesty's? You don't even have a single penny."
Max who listened to Sena words gets angry a lot from other days," Yeah! That's right, I'm just enjoying the luxury given to me by luck. I don't need to work my ass off here with lower title nobles like you. Piss off before I smash your head."
"Huh! You will smash my head, Let's see!"
Sena throws up Max on the ground by dragging him from collar and kicks him in legs.
"Trash, Idiot and lousy womanizer that's all you can be and that's all the titles you can own in this life. I can never bring myself to like you or think of you as a human."
Max who left behind by Sena on the ground with his nose bleeding heavily," No one, Needs to like me. It's totally fine for me, I am a crown prince in name, And I am just here to fill in place. I can be replaced just by a flick of a finger."
"Crown prince in name only I see, Same as me having blanchester name after my own name in name only."
"What the hell you keep on name and name? What are you doing here?"
"To pick you up? I was passing by here And saw you lying on the ground complaining."
Fena reach out her hand to Max," Now, Get up already. How long are you going to lie down on the ground Your Highness Max."
Max stares at Fena in surprise and then Smirks," What's with you being all formal? It doesn't suit you at all. Are you making fun of me by any chance?"
"No, I was trying if I can have a conversation with you in this way but being formal sucks and I hate it."
While the both of them starts walking side by side," Stand in front of me face to face."
"Okay! But why? Don't do anything weird to me?"
Fena reach out her hand to Max face and starts wiping the blood on his face and around his nose.
Max who stands there shocked without moving a muscle.
"Now it's good, Let's go and apply ointment."
"You sure have no manners towards royal family? Do you? "
"Nope! Since I'm not a real noble. So you can't expect manners from me. Does it matter to you Max what others say? The very fact that you came in such a dangerous place four years ago despite being a young boy and a crown prince. It already proves that you are in crown prince position because you can handle it. Not everyone can handle the fear of losing life."
Fena who finishes talking, Walks forward without looking back, While Max standing in that same place with a flushed red face.
"Idiot, You shouldn't say such kind things to someone, When you are just a greedy fox yourself."
