King Leo's true identity revealed.

"where am I? No light. Please help me out, please!" King Leo woke up while shouting. It was already morning. Due to the recent suspicion, Kim sleeps close to the King's private Chambers. He ran knocking at the king's door.

"Are you okay my Lord?" Kim asked. King Leo told him not to worry so much. King Leo told his wife about what he dreamt. They both wondered what it could mean. Few hours later he was out from his room. He summoned Kim. Bruno knew about King Leo's meeting with Kim and felt his opinion is no longer required in the palace. So he silently peeped and listened to their conversation.

King Leo narrated his dream to Kim. " Whose face did you see in your dream my Lord?" Kim was curious. " The old woman you rescued. She was the only person I could recognize" King Leo responded. " I could recall she told me to come see her after the war is over" King Leo said as he looked like one who's lost in thoughts. "So, prepare the chariots. We will leave here in few minutes" he said to Kim as he left Kim's presence.. Bruno heard all this and left swiftly to pass the information to the kingmaker.

He got to kingmaker's house and disclose what he heard. The kingmaker couldn't believe what he heard. " You were assigned to assassinate the old witch, you couldn't find her. Now they are planning to go see her" the kingmaker said to himself aloud as he walk to and fro in his court. "Go with your men. After they are done seeing the witch, kill her." The kingmaker ordered Bruno. He left as ordered. While leaving, the kingmaker called him back and whispered " no failure this time. He nodded and left his premises.

King Leo and Kim got every stuff they needed for the journey ready. "Go well, my Lord" the queen cried out as they rode away. King Leo told his wife about the old lady and how Kim saved her. But she never knew that the old lady's saving story brought about the calamity that fell upon the entire Kingdom.

Bruno got back to the place, took some men with him and left after the king. After riding for some kilometers, they got to the old lady's hut. King Leo and Kim entered into the hut and the old lady welcomed them . "Our parts were destined to cross Kim. You were tested and you passed it" the old lady said laughing out loud. "Fate brought you two together. The king's safety is in your hands." The woman continued. "How come you know about this?" King Leo asked . She laughed uncontrollably, the both men wondered what could be funny. "I'm a good witch. I'm still alive to protect the royal lineage until final peace is restored" the witch answered. King Leo and Kim got confused over what she said about restoring peace. " What peace are you talking about?" King Leo became more curious. " The mother who raised you, the queen committed a great atrocity. And dark forces are affecting your reign" the old witch explained. "What did she do?" Asked Leo. " Your biological mother was killed in cold blood. The queen ordered her execution . Joseng kingdom kingmaker knows about The execution of your mother. You were left under his care, now he wants to take that advantage and eliminate you since he can't manipulate you" the witch explained to curious King Leo. King Leo was dumbfounded, he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
